豚鼠爆震性聋耳蜗结构与功能的动态变化

目的 探讨爆震性聋与耳蜗损伤之间的关系。方法 通过畸变产物耳声发射及扫描电镜进行研究。结果 豚鼠爆震后即刻出现听阈的提高，与爆震前相比，DPOAEs幅值于1kHz处开始出现非常显著的减低（P〈0．05），在8kHz处两者的差值更大（P〈0．05），DPOAEs幅值随频率升高而逐渐下降，以高频段更为严重。爆震后20天DPOAEs幅值在0．5、0．7、1kHz处基本恢复至爆震前水平，在1．5—8kHz处较爆震后即刻明显提高，但仍低于爆震前水平（各频率均P〈0.05）。爆震后40天DPOAEs幅值与爆震后20天无明显改变（各频率均P〉0．05）。扫描电镜下见豚鼠爆震后即刻出现IHC纤毛排列紊乱，第一排OHC形态基本正常，第二排OHC部分纤毛扭曲或倒伏，尚可看到鸟翼状结构，第三排OHC倒伏、分散，部分折断；20天组IHC纤毛排列仍然紊乱，第一排OHC纤毛基本正常，第二、第三排OHC纤毛排列极度扭曲，以第三排更为严重，少数OHC溶解变性，空位由支持细胞取代；40天组与20天组无明显差别。结论 爆震性聋出现耳蜗HC结构改变及功能减退，提示耳蜗损伤与爆震性聋紧密相关。

Polymorphic distribution of Y-chromosome haplotype and mitochondrial DNA in the Bouyei people in China

In the evolution of humans, many kinds of mutations in the human genome have been accumulated, providing credible genetic evidence for the study of human origins and migrations. The "out-of-Africa" hypothesis of modern human evolution and the genetic origin of the Japanese has come about by studying mitochondrial DNA.l,2 Recently, researchers have recognized the power of Y-chromosome markers in resolving migratory patterns of modern humans as more and more Y-chromosome single nucleotide polymorphism markers have been found. The markers on the nonrecombinant part of the Y-chromosome allows for the reconstruction of intact haplotypes which are probably the best genetic tools to study human migrations. We can analyze the paternal history of some people in different areas by Y-chromosome haplotypes.

Glial cell expression of hepatocyte growth factor in vitreoretinal proliferative disease

The hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has been crucially implicated in the development of proliferative retinal diseases; however, it is unclear whether retinal glial cells express or respond to HGF. Therefore, we examined the expression of HGF and of the receptor for HGF, c-Met, by immunohistochemical costaining with glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in epiretinal membranes of patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), respectively. Furthermore, it was determined whether cells of the human retinal glial cell line, MIO-M1, secrete HGF protein, and whether HGF stimulates proliferation and chemotaxis, and secretion of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Neuroretinas of patients with PVR express elevated mRNA level for HGF in comparison to control retinas. In epiretinal membranes of patients with PVR or PDR, immunoreactivity for HGF and for c-Met, respectively, partially colocalized with immunoreactivity for GFAP. Fetal bovine serum and basic fibroblast growth factor, but not heparin-binding epidermal or platelet-derived growth factors, evoked HGF secretion by cultured retinal glial cells. HGF displayed only a marginal effect on cell proliferation while it stimulated chemotaxis. HGF promoted the secretion of VEGF, via activation of the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase. It is concluded that glial cells in epiretinal membranes express both HGF protein and c-Met receptors. The results suggest an autocrine/paracrine role of HGF in glial cell responses during proliferative vitreoretinal disorders as well as in retinal neovascularization, by stimulating of VEGF release.     

肾上腺髓质素对豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙通道的作用及其信号转导机制

目的: 研究肾上腺髓质素( adrenomedullin, ADM)抑制豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙通道的信号转导机制。方法: 应用全细胞膜片钳技术,记录应用ADM(1-100 nmol·L^-1)前后L-型钙电流(I_Ca,L),以及分别记录应用ADM特异性受体拮抗剂ADM_22-52(100 nmol·L^-1)+ADM(100 nmol·L^-1)、蛋白激酶A (PKA) 特异性拮抗剂H-89(10 μmol·L^-1) + ADM(100 nmol·L^-1)、蛋白激酶C (PKC) 特异性拮抗剂PKC_19-36(10 μmol·L^-1)+ADM(100 nmol·L^-1)、PKC特异性激动剂PMA(1 μmol·L^-1)前后I_Ca,L。结果: ADM(1-100 nmol·L^-1)浓度依赖性地抑制豚鼠心室肌细胞I_Ca,L,并可被ADM_22-52(100 nmol·L^-1)完全阻断;H-89(10 μmol·L^-1)对ADM抑制I_Ca,L的作用无影响。PKC_19-36(10 μmol·L^-1)可完全阻断ADM 对I_Ca,L的抑制效应,且PMA(1 μmol·L^-1)可模拟ADM 对I_Ca,L的抑制效应。结论: ADM作用于特异性ADM受体可浓度依赖性地抑制豚鼠心室肌细胞I_Ca,L,此作用有可能与PKC激活相关。
