UVB radiation induces phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor, decreases EGF binding and blocks EGF induction of ornithine decarboxylase gene expression in SV40-transformed human keratinocytes

Abstract We previously demonstrated that epidermal growth factor (EGF) induces a several-fold increase in ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity and the steady-state level of ODC mRNA in cultured SV40-transformed human keratinocytes (1). Pretreatment of cell cultures with ultraviolet B (UVB) radiation resulted in a reduction of EGF-induced ODC activity. To determine whether UVB inhibits the accumulation of ODC mRNA by EGF, cells were pretreated with 20 mJ/cm² UVB or sham-irradiated and then incubated with 100 ng/ml EGF. Northern blot analysis revealed that UVB irradiation entirely blocked the EGF induction of ODC mRNA. Since the binding of EGF to its plasma membrane receptor is the first step in initiating a biological response, the effect of UVB on EGF binding was evaluated. UVB treatment of cultured keratinocytes resulted in an immediate and dose-dependent reduction of EGF binding. Scatchard analysis revealed thai the reduction of EGF binding was due to a 52% decrease in the number of available receptors, from 6.2 × 10⁴/cell to 3.0 × 10⁴/cell. However, UVB decreased the EGF-binding affinity very little (Kd = 0.60 nM in control and Kd=0.75 nM in UVB-treated Z114 cells). In addition, UVB did not alter the rate of EGF internalization. These data suggest that UVB blocks the signal transduction pathway of EGF that is involved in regulation of ODC gene expression. Immunoblot analysis of extracts from irradiated cells showed that UVB induced tyro-sine phosphorylation of EGFR and that the quantity of EGFR protein was unaffected by UVB treatment. Phosphorylation of EGFR may be responsible for decreased binding of EGF to its receptor.     

频闪喉镜对声带病理情况观察的研究

对1997年以来423例病态喉的频闪喉镜表现进行分析,结果显示声带有病理改变者其粘膜波、振幅、闭合相、运动周期性、对称性均有不同程度的变化,这种变化能直接反映声带病变的深度及范围,对喉部疾病的诊断、鉴别诊断、治疗指导及预后评价具有重要意义.     

日本血吸虫病患者幽门螺杆菌感染分析

目的：探讨日本血吸虫病患者中Hp的感染状况。方法：利用Hp全菌抗原ELISA定量检测不同类型日本血吸虫病患者血清抗HpIgG。结果：日本血吸虫病患者组血清抗HpIgG检出率（75％）明显高于对照组（46％），平均抗体水平（2.30±0.42）亦高于对照组（2.02±0.38），抗HpIgG的检出率和平均抗体水平随病程的发展而升高，血清抗HpIgG水平与血清抗AWA抗体水平高度相关（r＝0.92）。结论：日本血吸虫病患者的Hp感染率明显高于其他人，早期诊断并及时治疗Hp感染，对于控制晚期血吸虫病病变的发展和改善其预后具有重要意义。     

育龄期妇女输卵管结扎后上皮细胞超微结构的改变

应用扫描电镜观察9位育龄期妇女正常和结扎后的输卵管上皮。结果表明:在输卵管结扎疤痕两侧各0.5cm处,粘膜上皮细胞的纤毛大量扭曲和粘连,局部上皮纤毛和微绒毛脱落,细胞形态不规则,而在距输卵管结扎疤痕两侧各1.0cm处,上皮细胞的纤毛和微绒毛形态和结构均正常。表明输卵管结扎后上皮的超微结构变化,使卵细胞输送功能丧失,可能是输卵管复通术后不孕的重要原因。因此,施行输卵管复通术时,输卵管疤痕切除的范围应不少于疤痕两侧各0.5cm,以提高输卵管复通率。此外,发现输卵管小孔仅位于输卵管积水处粘膜的分泌细胞间,可能与输卵管浆膜下毛细淋巴管相沟通,与引流输卵管积水有关。在输卵管积水处粘膜的表面纤毛细胞的纤毛大量脱落,微绒毛增生,许多纤毛细胞转变为分泌细胞。提出了形成输卵管积水新的发病机理。     

高浓度氨基酸对肿瘤细胞体外增殖的影响

本研究首先采用Hanks溶液作为介质,观察了不同氨基酸浓度(1～5mmol/L)对艾氏腹水癌细胞、瓦克癌肉瘤256细胞体外增殖的影响,然后以含有平衡氨基酸组成的Eagle最低必需培养基作为介质进一步观察了不同氨基酸浓度的增加对艾氏腹水癌细胞及人肝癌细胞(PLC/PRF/5)、肺癌细胞(AGTJ-a)体外增殖的影响,同时采用小鼠骨髓细胞观察了高浓度氨基酸对正常组织细胞可能产生的毒性作用。结果表明,尽管一些氨基酸浓度的增加有显著作用,但是不同肿瘤细胞对不同氨基酸浓度增加的反应不尽一致,而且一些氨基酸的作用受培养介质的明显影响;高浓度色氨酸对小鼠骨髓细胞的体外增殖有显著抑制作用。     

准分子激光心肌血管重建的实验研究

为研究心肌血管重建的机理,在15只鼠心、12只免心,用308nm的XeCl准分子激光在活体上照射左心室壁,形成边缘清楚而光滑的圆筒状心肌管道。在活体心室壁的激光管道周围,心肌细胞的损伤很轻微,无炭化焦痂层,未见碎片和凝固坏死层,只有薄层嗜伊红性变和肌浆凝聚两个断续的条形变化带。当心室壁由激光穿透时,血液从心腔进入激光管道,并与周围扩张的血管相通。实验结果提示,由于准分子激光不造成明显的热损伤,因而可能适合于心肌血管的重建。     

Transmission of corneal collagen during arf excimer laser ablation

The time-resolved transmission of collagen films and 10-μm sections of bovine cornea during ArF laser ablation has been investigated. The film studies were performed on thin layers of extracted bovine corneal collagen, the principal chromophore in 193 nm photoablation. Transmission measurements were made on both dry and water-saturated films to assess the sensitivity of the ablation process to hydration. Distinct transient optical changes were observed in both fully desiccated and rehydrated films. Dehydrated films exhibit rapid reduction in film absorption over the time-course of the ablating laser pulse, presumably due to chromophore bleaching or annihilation. In contrast, rehydrated films demonstrate a short-lived enhancement of the attenuation. In either case, a single ablative laser pulse increased the long-term transmission of the film, although this increase was a factor of five greater for dehydrated films than for rehydrated samples. Results obtained from corneal tissue sections were essentially identical to those derived from hydrated collagen films. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
