白三烯C_4对大鼠胃粘膜微循环的影响及其在急性胃粘膜损伤中的作用

探讨了静注白三烯C_4(0.1ng·100g~(-1))对胃粘膜微循环的影响及其在急性胃粘膜损伤中的作用。实验由Wistar系雄性大鼠,实验前禁食24hr,饮水不限。发现:1.胃粘膜表层毛细血管口径迅速变细,部分消失,集合细静脉口径亦变细;10分钟时集合细静脉明显淤血和出血。2.氢气清除法证明,胃粘膜血流量明显减少,注后第15分钟时由注前1.230±0.093(M±SE)降至0.521±0.079ml·min~(-1)·100g~(-1)(P<0.01)。3.反射光谱法证明,胃粘膜局部表层微循环血液量(△Er)和Hb氧饱和度(F),均有不同程度下降。4.静注白三烯C_4(0.1ng·100g~(-1))及盐酸灌胃(0.2N1ml)均未见明显胃粘膜损伤,两者并用则损伤明显加重。结果表明,外源性白三烯C_4可引起严重胃粘膜微循环障碍,是诱发溃疡形成的重要因素之一。     

Linkage and association of adrenergic and dopamine receptor genes in the distal portion of the long arm of chromosome 5 with systolic blood pressure variation

Elevated blood pressure is an important risk factor for renal-, cerebro- and cardiovascular diseases. We used an efficient discordant sib-pair ascertainment scheme to investigate the impact of the distal end of the long arm of human chromosome 5 (chromosomal region 5q31.1-qter) containing genes for the alpha1B and beta2 adrenergic receptors and the dopamine receptor type 1A on variation of systolic blood pressure in young Caucasians. We measured eight highly polymorphic markers spanning this positional candidate gene-rich region in 427 individuals from 55 three-generation pedigrees containing 69 discordant sibling pairs, and calculated multipoint identity by descent (MIBD) probabilities. The results of genetic linkage and association tests indicate that the region between markers D5S2093 and D5S462 is significantly linked to one or more polymorphic genes influencing interindividual variation in systolic blood pressure levels. Since the alpha1B adrenergic receptor and dopamine receptor type 1A genes are located close to these markers, these data suggest that genetic variation in one or both of these G protein-coupled receptors, which participate in the control of vascular tone, plays an important role in influencing interindividual variation in systolic blood pressure levels.      

心室晚电位的时间－频率表示法的进一步改进

在心室晚电位的研究中，我们引入了信号的时间一频率表示法，并根据晚电位的具体特性用Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布法（维格纳分布）把信号表示为在时间及频率空间中的能量分布。由于Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布的优异性质使我们有可能更准确表示出心室晚电位的存在。但当输入信号是两个信号的线性叠加时，Ｗｉｇｎｅｒ分布的结果会出现一个交叉项，相当于引入干扰。针对此不足，作者介绍改进方案，消除部分交叉项，收到较好的效果，并给出一些仿真及应用实例。     

CD2 and other surface molecules in the regulation of non-MHC-restricted cytolytic function.

The effect of anti-CD2 and Fc receptor binding molecules on the cytolytic function of a highly enriched population of CD3- large granular lymphocytes (LGL) was studied. These cells could mediate natural killer (NK) activity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and lectin-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (LDCC). Both ADCC and LDCC were enhanced by anti-CD2. The enhanced LDCC could also be observed with IL-2-activated LGL. However, NK cell activity was usually slightly diminished or unaffected by anti-CD2 binding. Immune complex and aggregated human IgG had no effect on ADCC but an anti-CD16 showed a dose-dependent inhibition of ADCC, reversible by anti-HLA-ABC and anti-CD2. Cross-linking of LGL surface-bound anti-CD2 caused an almost complete inhibition of LDCC and ADCC but had much less effect on NK activity. These experiments show that ADCC and LDCC mediated by CD3- LGL can be influenced by perturbing the CD2 molecule. NK activity was, however, affected differently, suggesting some basic differences in the pathway of ADCC and NK function.     

Sequence analysis of cDNAs for the human and bovine ATP synthase β subunit: mitochondrial DNA genes sustain seventeen times more mutations

We have cloned and sequenced human and bovine cDNAs for the subunit of the ATP synthase (ATP-synß), a nuclear DNA (nDNA) encoded oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) gene. The two cDNAs were found to share 99% amino acid homology and 94% nucleotide homology. The evolutionary rate of ATPsynß was then compared with that of two mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) ATP synthase genes (ATPase 6 and 8), seven other mtDNA OXPHOS genes, and a number of nuclear genes. The synonymous substitution rate for ATPsynß proved to be 1.9 × 10^–9 substitutions per site per year (substitutions × site^–1 × year^–1) (SSY). This is less than 1/2 that of the average nDNA gene, 1/12 the rate of ATPase 6 and 8, and 1/17 the rate of the average mtDNA gene. The synonymous and replacement substitution rates were used to calculate a new parameter, the selective constraint ratio. This revealed that even the most variable mtDNA protein was more constrained than the average nDNA protein. Thus, the high substitution mutation rate and strong selective constraints of mammalian mtDNA proteins suggest that mtDNA mutations may result in a disproportionately large number of human hereditary diseases of OXPHOS.     

亮氨酸脑啡肽样和P物质样免疫反应物在大鼠延髓迷走神经背核簇和网状结构内的分布

用PAP法研究亮氨酸脑啡肽样(L—ENK—LI)和P物质样(SP—LI)免疫反应物在大鼠延髓迷走神经背核簇和网状结构内的分布。证明在孤束核、迷走神经背核、外侧网状核外侧部及其外侧的区域内有大量的L-ENK样终末和纤维,在背侧和腹侧网状核之间的移行区内有中等量的分布,其余区内为少量。L-ENK样胞体在孤束核、咀侧腹外侧网状核、巨细胞网状核的腹侧部和α部、外侧旁巨细胞核以及中缝大核内均有许多分布,在迷走神经背核的尾侧部、背侧和腹侧网状核之间的移行区有中等量,其余区内为少量。SP样反应物的分布与L-ENK样物类似,但其终末和纤维的数量较L-ENK者略少,阳性胞体的数量除了在中缝核及外侧旁巨细胞核内侧端中的量较L-ENK样胞体多以外,在其余区内均较少。     

脑缺血大鼠海马超微结构的形态定量研究

对大鼠双侧颈总动脉夹闭2小时,经透射电镜观察海马,用Weibel氏形态定量法分别测量了海马1区和3区的线粒体和突触的表面积密度(Svi)、表面积—体积比(Si/Vi),并与对照组进行了比较。结果表明:缺血时海马1区受损较严重,表现为线粒体体积缩小,数量减少,Svi下降;突触数量有增多的趋势,但突触的Svi与Si/Vi变化不明显。缺血组海马3区受损较轻,线粒体和突触的结构基本正常,其Svi、Si/Vi与对照组差别不显著,提示了3区对缺血有较强的耐受性。
