大鼠孤束核含酪氨酸羟化酶、神经降压素和胆囊收缩素样神经元向伏核的投射—HRP和免疫细胞化学双重标记法的研究

本文应用HRP顺、逆行追踪法结合免疫细胞化学双重标记法,对大鼠孤束核向伏核的投射进行了研究。主要结果如下:1.WGA-HRP注入孤束核尾侧段,在伏核后部的腹、内侧区,出现较密集的标记纤维、终末和标记细胞;将HRP注入伏核后部的腹、内侧区,在孤束核尾侧段(主要在连合核和内侧亚核)出现大量的顺、逆行标记,以同侧为主。2.HRP注射到伏核并结合免疫细胞化学反应,在孤束核尾侧段发现HRP-TH,HRP-NT、HRP-CCK双重标记细胞。HRP-TH的数目最多,其次是HRP-NT双标细胞,HRP-CCK双标细胞最少。     

低剂量甲基汞在小鼠体内分布及其对细胞周期进程的影响

连续９０天饮用含甲基汞浓度为１／１０００ＬＤ５０、１／１００ＬＤ５０、１／５０ＬＤ５０和１／１０ＬＤ５０的自来水的雄性昆明小鼠，各脏器中总汞含量均高于对照组（Ｐ＜０．０５～０．００５），并且随着染毒剂量增加，脏器中总汞含量也随之增高。同时采用ＦＡＣＳｃａｎ流式细胞仪和“ＣｅｌｌＦＩＴ”软件分析脾细胞周期进程，发现除１／１０００ＬＤ５０剂量组外，其余各剂量组从Ｇｏ／Ｇ１时相进入Ｓ时相的脾细胞百分数均明显高于对照组（Ｐ＜０．０５），与染毒剂量呈明显正相关。表明连续经口摄入低剂量甲基汞小鼠脾细胞周期进程加快，细胞ＤＮＡ复制增强。     

深低温冷冻保存家兔性腺器官的研究

自１９９２年７月开始行深低温（－１９６℃）冷冻保存兔性腺研究。冷冻睾丸３６个，１５天后解冻，完好率９１．７％，其中２０个行器官移植，睾丸接通血管均即时建立血循环。４只兔的冷冻睾丸自体移植后，每次采精７４０．６±１８９０．４万个。２只兔的冷冻睾丸异体移植后，每次采精６３．４±３７．７万个。冷冻兔卵巢１４个，１５天后解冻，完好率９２．９％，其中８个行器官移植，卵巢接通血管均即时建立血循环，术后雌二醇水平为２．７２～１２７．３ｐｍｏｌ／Ｌ。冷冻睾丸及卵巢移植一段时间后病理切片证实睾丸及卵巢组织存活。

Carotid stenosis in lacunar stroke.

The prevalence of extracranial carotid stenosis in patients with a clinical syndrome of lacunar stroke has not been extensively studied using noninvasive methods. We performed carotid duplex sonography on 168 patients referred to the neurosonology laboratory with a diagnosis of ischemic stroke. Strokes were independently classified as lacunar or nonlacunar hemispheric infarction without knowledge of the ultrasound results. We excluded patients with infarcts that were clearly vertebrobasilar, presumed to be cardioembolic, or had occurred greater than 1 year earlier, and patients for whom classification of the nature and location of the event was not possible. Fifty-five patients had lacunar and 54 had nonlacunar stroke. No differences in age, sex, distribution, or prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, prior ischemia, or Hispanic surname existed between the two groups. Tobacco use was more frequent in the nonlacunar group (p less than 0.01). The prevalence of important extracranial carotid stenosis (greater than or equal to 50% diameter reduction) in the lacunar stroke group was 13% (seven of 55) in the ipsilateral and 4% (two of 55) in the contralateral carotid artery. Of the 54 patients with nonlacunar hemispheric stroke, 41% (22) had ipsilateral (p less than 0.01) and 26% (14) had contralateral (p less than 0.01) carotid stenosis. This study suggests that important carotid stenosis is infrequent among patients presenting with a clinical syndrome of lacunar stroke. These data impact on decisions regarding cerebrovascular work-up in such patients.     

Relationships between Activators and Inhibitors of Plasminogen, and the Progression of Small Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

OBJECTIVE: plasmin is a common activator of the known proteolytic systems involved in the aneurysmal degradation, and is reported to be associated with the expansion of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). The aim of this study was to study the activating pathways of plasminogen as predictors of the progression of AAA. MATERIALS AND METHODS: one hundred and twelve of 122 male patients with a small AAA (def.: +3cm) were interviewed, examined, had blood samples taken at diagnosis, and scanned annually for 1-5 years (mean 3.5 years), and referred for surgery if the AAA exceeded 5cm in diameter.A random sample of 70 of the 112 cases had plasma levels of urokinase-like-plasminogen activator (uPA), tissue-type-plasminogen activator (tPA), plasminogen-activator-inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), macrophage inhibiting factor (MIF), tumour-growth-factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), homocysteine, and serum levels of IgA-antibodies against Chlamydia pneumoniae (IgA-CP) and Cotinine (a nicotine metabolite) measured. Spearmans correlation analysis was used for statistics. RESULTS: the annual expansion rate correlated positively with tPA, IgA-CP and S-Cotinine; r =0.37 (p=0.002), 0.29 (p=0.006) and 0.24 (p=0.038), while PAI1, uPA, TGF-beta1, homocysteine, and MIF did not. S-Cotinine did also correlate positively with tPA, r=0.24 (p=0.049). CONCLUSION: the aortic matrix degradation in AAA may be partly caused by an activation of plasminogen by tPA, but apparently not by uPA, which usually dominates matrix degradation. Smoking seems to be a factor for this pathway, while the pathways of IgA-CP and MIF, a new marker of aneurysmal progression, seem different. The latter observations suggest that other proteolytic pathways are involved in the aortic wall degradation in AAA.     

聚合酶链反应诊断单纯疱疹病毒性脑炎

用聚合酶链反应（ＰＣＲ）扩增患者脑脊液（ＣｈＦ）中病毒特异性ＤＮＡ可早期快速诊断单纯疱疹病毒性脑炎（ＨＳＥ）。１９例临床确诊的病毒性脑炎患者，经ＰＣＲ在ＣＳＦ中检出单纯疱疹病毒（ＨＳＶ）１３例，全部阳性标本均经分子杂交证实为ＨＳＶ－ＤＮＡ，而１４例其他神经疾病（ＯＮＤ）对照组均为阴性，显示了这一方法的特异性。其中７例病毒性脑炎ＣＳＦ标本分别用ＰＣＲ分子杂交和病毒分离等三种方法检测ＨＳＶ；显示ＰＣＲ最为敏感。表明ＰＣＲ技术的广泛应用将提高ＨＳＥ的早期诊断水平，指导临床正确治疗。
