端粒酶及nm23的表达与胃腺癌预后的关系探讨

目的 :探讨端粒酶和nm2 3癌基因蛋白表达与胃癌根治术后复发及预后的关系。方法 :采用端粒酶原位分子杂交技术及免疫组化S P法分别对 4 5例原发性胃腺癌组织中端粒酶的活性及nm2 3进行检测 ,并结合内镜及随访资料进行分析。结果 :胃腺癌端粒酶阳性表达率及nm2 3低表达率在有淋巴结转移组显著高于无淋巴结转移组 ;在术后 5年内复发者中显著高于无复发者。虽然随着胃腺癌分化程度的降低及浸润深度的增加 ,端粒酶活性及nm2 3低表达呈增强趋势 ,但其差异无统计学意义。结论 :胃腺癌组织中端粒酶的活性表达及nm2 3的低表达与淋巴结转移及术后复发显著相关 ,两者的表达变化对判断胃癌术后复发及预后判断有重要临床意义     

老年冠心病心功能不全患者血浆白细胞介素-6浓度的变化

目的 :观察老年冠心病心功能不全患者血浆白细胞介素 6 (interleukin - 6 ,IL - 6 )浓度的变化。方法 :选择老年冠心病心功能不全患者 48例、心功能正常者 15例及健康老年人 30例 ,采用酶联免疫吸附法测定其血浆IL - 6浓度。结果 :冠心病心功能不全组血浆IL - 6浓度较冠心病心功能正常组及健康对照组明显增高 (均P <0 .0 5 ) ,而冠心病心功能正常组与健康对照组之间无明显差异 (P >0 .0 5 ) ;血浆IL - 6浓度与左室射血分数呈负相关 (r =- 0 .6 0 ,P <0 .0 1) ;因心功能不全恶化再入院患者血浆IL - 6浓度高于未再入院患者 (P <0 .0 1)。结论 :IL - 6具有判断病情、评价预后的价值     

烧伤血清对腹腔巨噬细胞凋亡的影响

目的 探讨体外培养的腹腔巨噬细胞（Ｍ）经烧伤血清刺激后的凋亡情况。方法制作３０％体表总面积（ＴＢＳＡ）Ⅲ 度烧伤大鼠模型,分离其伤后２４ ｈ血清。流式细胞术检测体外培养的Ｍ经烧伤血清刺激后的凋亡情况并与正常大鼠 进行对照。结果烧伤大鼠血清诱导Ｍ凋亡明显增加,这种作用随刺激时间的延长和烧伤血清浓度的增加而加强,与 对照组比较有显著差异（Ｐ＜０．０１）。结论烧伤血清可能在烧伤后Ｍ功能失调中起重要作用。     

Culture bovine prospermatogonia with 2i medium

Germplasm cryopreservation and expansion of gonocytes/prospermatogonia or spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are important; however, it's difficult in cattle. Since inhibitors of Mek1/2 and Gsk3β (2i) can enhance pluripotency maintenance, effects of 2i-based medium on the cultivation of bovine prospermatogonia from the cryopreserved tissues were examined. The testicular tissues of newborn bulls were well cryopreserved. High mRNA levels of prospermatogonium/SSC markers (PLZF, GFRα-1) and pluripotency markers (Oct4/Pouf5, Sox2, Nanog) were detected and the PLZF⁺/GFRα-1⁺ prospermatogonia were consistently identified immunohistochemically in the seminiferous cords. Using differential plating and Percoll-based centrifugation, 41.59% prospermatogonia were enriched and they proliferated robustly in 2i medium. The 2i medium boosted mRNA abundances of Pouf5, Sox2, Nanog, GFRα-1, PLZF, anti-apoptosis gene Bcl2, LIF receptor gene LIFR and enhanced PLZF protein expression, but suppressed mRNA expressions of spermatogonial differentiation marker c-kit and pro-apoptotic gene Bax, in the cultured prospermatogonia. It also alleviated H₂O₂-induced apoptosis of the enriched cells and decreased histone H3 lysine (K9) trimethylation (H3K9me3) and its methylase Suv39h1/2 mRNA level in the cultured seminiferous cords. Overall, 2i medium improves the cultivation of bovine prospermatogonia isolated from the cryopreserved testes, by inhibiting Suv39h1/2-mediated H3K9me3 through Mek1/2 and Gsk3β signalling, evidencing successful cryopreservation and expansion of bovine germplasm.     

Clearing the clouds: Case‐report and review of the literature

In peritoneal dialysis (PD), a cloudy dialysate is an alarming finding. Bacterial peritonitis is the most common cause, however, atypical infections and non‐infectious causes must be considered. A 46‐year‐old man presented with asthenia, paraesthesia, foamy urine and hypertension. Laboratory testing revealed severe azotaemia, anaemia, hyperkalaemia and nephrotic‐range proteinuria. Haemodialysis was started through a central venous catheter. Later, due to patient preference, a Tenckhoff catheter was inserted. Conversion to PD occurred 3 weeks later, during hospitalization for a presumed central line infection. A month later, the patient was hospitalized for neutropenic fever. He was diagnosed an acute parvovirus infection and was discharged under isoniazid for latent tuberculosis. Four months later, the patient presented with fever and a cloudy effluent. Peritoneal fluid (PF) cytology was suggestive of infectious peritonitis, but the symptoms persisted despite antibiotic therapy. Bacterial and mycological cultures were negative. No neoplastic cells were detected. Mycobacterium tuberculosis eventually grew in PF cultures, despite previous negative molecular tests. Directed therapy was then initiated with excellent response. Thus, facing a cloudy effluent, one must consider multiple aetiologies. Diagnosis of peritoneal tuberculosis is hampered by the lack of highly sensitive and specific exams. Here, diagnosis was only possible due to positive mycobacterial cultures.
