Pulmonary tuberculosis in five young infants with nursery exposure: clinical, radiographic and CT findings

Clinical, radiographic (n = 5) and CT findings (n = 4) of five Korean infants ranging in age from 2 to 3 months with confirmed tuberculosis were retrospectively analysed. All of the patients were symptomatic, anergic to tuberculin, and had a positive culture of Myobacterium tuberculosis in gastric aspirates. The probable source of infection was the hospital in which they were born. CT scans demonstrated hilar and mediastinal lymph node enlargement with central low attenuation and peripheral enhancement in all cases. CT may be useful in diagnosis by demonstrating characteristic adenopathy and disseminated disease in young infants. Received: 2 September 1997 Accepted: 23 April 1998

T细胞及相关免疫分子在淋巴细胞趋化因子增强肿瘤自杀基因疗法中的作用

本室以往的研究表明,用腺病毒作为载体将大肠杆菌胞嘧啶脱氨酶(CD)基因与小鼠淋巴细胞趋化因子(Itn)基因联合体内转染,具有显著的抗肿瘤效应.本文对其免疫机理进行了进一步研究,发现CT26结肠腺癌细胞体外经过CD/Ltn基因转染并给予前体药物5-FC后,CT26结肠腺癌细胞表达CD80和CD54分子明显增加,提示经CD自杀基因和Ltn基因联转移后,肿瘤细胞免疫原性增加.荷瘤小鼠体内经联合治疗后,小鼠脾细胞分泌IL-2和IFN-γ明显增加.体内用抗CD4、CD8抗体阻断实验研究结果的表明,联合应用自杀基因和Ltn基因治疗主要通过诱导CD8~ T细胞发挥抗肿瘤作用.

复合诱变筛选avermectins高产菌株

由Streptomyces avermitilis初始菌株经过自然分离可以得到三种不同类型的菌株，即灰色粉末型、白色和光秃型。其中灰色粉末型产素水平最高，摇瓶发酵效价达到6835．1μg／ml，B1组分达到56．3％。经过紫外线和亚硝基胍对初始菌株的孢子的诱变及对其原生质体的诱变再生。并且经过异亮氨酸和链霉素的定向筛选，得到的高产菌株摇瓶发酵效价达到8542．9μg／ml，B。组分达到64．9％；同时通过对高产菌株进行传代培养检验其传代稳定性，结果表明，传代3代后，菌株开始退化，并且其发酵效价有比较显著的下降。

Differential regulation of ciliary neurotrophic factor and its receptor in the rat hippocampus following transient global ischemia

To investigate a potential role of ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) in transient global ischemia, we have studied the postischemic regulatory changes in the expression of CNTF and its receptor, the ligand-binding alpha-subunit (CNTFRalpha). Immunoblot analysis demonstrated CNTF levels were slightly upregulated already during the first day after ischemia and then increased markedly by more than 10-fold until 2 weeks postischemia. Immunoreactivity for CNTF became detectable 1 day after ischemia and was localized in reactive astrocytes. The intensity of the immunolabeling was maximal in CA1 during the phase of neuronal cell death (days 3-7 postischemia) and in the deafferented inner molecular layer of the dentate gyrus. Upregulation of CNTF expression was less pronounced in CA3 and absent in the stratum lacunosum moleculare and the outer molecular layer of the dentate gyrus and thus did not simply correlate with astroliosis as represented by upregulation of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). As shown by in situ hybridization, expression of CNTFRalpha mRNA was restricted to neurons of the pyramidal cell and granule cell layers in control animals. Following ischemia, reactive astrocytes, identified by double labeling with antibodies to GFAP, transiently expressed CNTFRalpha mRNA with a maximum around postischemic day 3. This astrocytic response was most pronounced in CA1 and in the hilar part of CA3. These results show that CNTF and its receptor are differentially regulated in activated astrocytes of the postischemic hippocampus, indicating that they are involved in the regulation of astrocytic responses and the neuronal reorganizations occurring after an ischemic insult.
