Reversal of diabetes in BB rats by transplantation of encapsulated pancreatic islets

Prolonged survival of pancreatic islet allografts implanted in diabetic BB rats was achieved by encapsulation of individual islets in a protective biocompatible alginate-polylysine-alginate membrane without immunosuppression. Intraperitoneal transplantation of the encapsulated islets reversed the diabetic state of the recipients within 3 days and maintained normoglycemia for 190 days. Normal body weight and urine volume were maintained during this period, and no cataracts were detected in the transplant recipients. In contrast, control rats receiving transplants of unencapsulated islets experienced normoglycemia for less than 2 wk. These results demonstrated that microencapsulation can protect allografted islets from both graft rejection and autoimmune destruction without immunosuppression in an animal model that mimics human insulin-dependent diabetes.     

Elimination of antibiotic-resistant plasmids by quinolone antibiotics

Of 7 plasmids we tested, the plasmid pORF2 was eliminated in vitro with the most efficiency by treatment with subinhibitory concentrations of novobiocin, coumermycin and 10 quinolones. It showed a cure rate of 43% by enoxacin; 12% by novobiocin, pefloxacin, ciprofloxacin and CI-934; 7% by coumermycin and ofloxacin; 9% by amifloxacin; and 4% by AM-833. On the other hand, pSC194, pBR322 and pMH612 were poorly cured in vitro by quinolones, except pSC194 which was cured 33% by enoxacin. R1, pP1603, and pUB110 were unaffected by the treatment. Mice were challenged intraperitoneally with a 2XLD50 of Escherichia coli carrying the ORF2 plasmid and were treated per os with 1 X or 1/2 X ED50 of either enoxacin or CI-934. The frequency of loss of ampicillin resistance determined 3 h after treatment shows curing effects of 92% for CI-934, 89% for enoxacin and 20% for untreated control.     

从包涵体中纯化重组人幽门螺杆菌热休克蛋白A亚单位

目的：建立一种有效从包涵体中纯化重组人幽门螺杆菌热休克蛋白A亚单位HspA的方法。方法：重组基因工程大肠杆菌发酵后，表达的Hp r HspA包涵体经洗涤，变性，复性，采用Q Sepharose High Performance阴离子交换层析和Superdex75凝胶过滤层析分离纯化，使用SDS－PAGE和HPLC检测纯度，选用ELISA和动物实验对纯化蛋白的免疫学活性和生物学活性进行鉴定。结果：Hp的HspA包涵经洗涤和溶解后，Hp的HspA的纯度＞60％，包涵体溶解液经阴离子交换层析和凝胶过滤层析后纯度超过95％，Hp的HspA纯品经检测具有良好的免疫学活性和生物学活性。结论：本研究建立的分离纯化方法可从包涵体中获得高纯度的重组HspA蛋白，为进一步的动物实验研究奠定了基础。

输卵管积水造口术对体外受精与胚胎移植的影响

【目的】探讨在体外受精与胚胎移植 (IVF ET)之前输卵管积水患者行输卵管造口术对IVF ET治疗效果的影响。【方法】回顾分析 1999年 2月至 2 0 0 1年 1月因女性输卵管因素不孕行IVF ET治疗的 90 8个周期的资料。按输卵管积水患者在IVF ET前是否治疗分 3组 ,A组 :输卵管积水未手术治疗行IVF ET 2 3个周期 ,B组 :在IVF ET之前行输卵管积水造口术 (腹腔镜下或开腹 ) 2 2个周期 ,C组 :对照组 (输卵管阻塞 ,未发现输卵管积水 ) 86 3个周期。【结果】A组、B组、C组的IVF ET的种植率分别为 9 7%、17 9%、16 7% ,临床妊娠率分别为 2 1 7%、4 0 9%、39 2 %。A组的种植率及临床妊娠率比其它组低 ,经 χ2 检验 ,有统计学意义。【结论】输卵管积水未治疗行IVF ET的种植率及临床妊娠率较低 ,但在IVF ET之前行输卵管造口术可改善IVF ET的种植率及临床妊娠率
