唾液酸糖表位类人源化N-糖基化修饰治疗性重组蛋白的研究进展

唾液酸化N-糖基化修饰重组蛋白能提高治疗性蛋白的理化性质,如延长半衰期、增强组织穿透性以及抑制炎症反应等。但迄今为止糖蛋白的N-糖基化修饰效率和唾液酸化效率都很难达到100%,这导致了唾液酸修饰糖基化重组蛋白的均质化、规模化生产非常困难。因而提高类人源化N-糖基化修饰治疗性重组蛋白的均质性仍是目前糖蛋白药物研发任务之一。该文围绕提高唾液酸糖表位N-糖基化修饰治疗性重组蛋白效率的方法及均质化类人源化唾液酸糖表位治疗性重组蛋白的生产途径展开综述。     

呼出气氢测定试验对飞行人员乳糖酶缺乏症的研究

对66名汉族飞行人员进行乳糖呼出气氢测定试验,乳糖吸收不良的发生率为83.3％,其中乳糖不耐受者占34.6％;与一般汉族人群无明显差别。对10名确定为中度以上乳糖吸收不良的飞行人员进行250ml鲜牛奶的试验结果,有50％呼出气氢含量在正常范围,并无一例出现胃肠道症状。提示较长期食用牛奶未能使乳糖酶缺乏状态发生改变,但每日食用适量牛奶属合理营养。     

An efficient SNP system for mouse genome scanning and elucidating strain relationships

A set of 1638 informative SNP markers easily assayed by the Amplifluor genotyping system were tested in 102 mouse strains, including the majority of the common and wild-derived inbred strains available from The Jackson Laboratory. Selected from publicly available databases, the markers are on average ~1.5 Mb apart and, whenever possible, represent the rare allele in at least two strains. Amplifluor assays were developed for each marker and performed on two independent DNA samples from each strain. The mean number of polymorphisms between strains was 608±136 SD. Several tests indicate that the markers provide an effective system for performing genome scans and quantitative trait loci analyses in all but the most closely related strains. Additionally, the markers revealed several subtle differences between closely related mouse strains, including the groups of several 129, BALB, C3H, C57, and DBA strains, and a group of wild-derived inbred strains representing several Mus musculus subspecies. Applying a neighbor-joining method to the data, we constructed a mouse strain family tree, which in most cases confirmed existing genealogies.     

Genetic imbalances in pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma detected by comparative genomic hybridization and literature review.

Pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA) is a rare, low-grade astrocytic tumor found in the central nervous system. Histologically, the tumor is characterized by markedly pleomorphic and lipidized cells. Although most of the patients have a favorable prognosis, a small number of cases undergoing recurrence or progression to anaplastic astrocytoma were reported. Very few genetic studies have been performed on PXA because of its rarity and the pathogenesis of this neoplasm is largely unknown. In order to provide an overview of genetic alterations in PXA, we performed comparative genomic hybridization to identify chromosomal imbalances (DNA gains and losses) in three cases of PXA. Genetic imbalance was detected on at least one chromosome for each case. One case, which revealed multiple genetic alterations, showed a poor prognosis. DNA gain on chromosome 7 and loss on 8p were demonstrated in two of three cases, suggesting that the candidate gene(s) located on these regions may play a role in the development of PXA. Further studies are needed to identify the residing candidate genes that are involved in the tumorigenesis of PXA. In addition, the histopathological features and previous genetic studies on PXA are reviewed.     

结核性淋巴结炎的“结节病”样变型

对１２例经病理学专家会诊、从病变上认定的淋巴结“结节病”石蜡包埋组织，应用结核杆菌ＤＮＡ特异性序列片段的聚合酶链反应（Ｍ．ＴＢ－ＰＣＲ）技术、ＢＣＧ免疫组化（ＢＣＧ－ＩＨＣ）技术和抗酸染色（ＡＦ）进行了分支杆菌／结核杆菌检测。在这１２例考虑为“结节病”的病例中：有１例呈ＢＣＧ－ＩＨＣ和Ｍ。ＴＢ－ＰＣＲ两项阳性；另１例呈ＡＦ、ＢＣＧ－ＩＨＣ和Ｍ．ＴＢ－ＰＣＲ三项阳性。研究结果提示：（１）某些结核性淋巴结炎可呈结节病样病变；（２）淋巴结结节病很可能与分支杆菌／结核杆菌感染有关。     

Apoptosis in endometrial glandular and stromal cells in women with and without endometriosis

BACKGROUND: The aetiology of endometriosis is unknown. Ectopic dissemination of the endometrial cells gives origin to endometriotic lesions, but occurs in women with and without endometriosis. It has been suggested that increased ectopic cell survival facilitates their implantation. The objectives of this study were to evaluate endometrial apoptosis in women with endometriosis according to: (i) cyclic changes, (ii) glandular and stromal contribution, and (iii) stage of the disease. METHODS: The subjects were women undergoing diagnostic laparoscopy and endometrial biopsies for suspected endometriosis. Spontaneous apoptosis was evaluated using TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end-labelling (TUNEL) assay. Apoptotic cells per 10 mm(2) (apoptotic index) in an area of 10-50 mm(2) in 5 microm endometrial tissue sections were counted and location of these cells was recorded. RESULTS: The apoptotic index in glandular epithelium was lower in endometriosis than controls (26.0 +/- 5.5 versus 51.2 +/- 9.7, P = 0.03) but not in the stroma (36.3 +/- 6.4 versus 48.4 +/- 11.3, NS). In controls, apoptosis was highest during the late secretory/menstrual and early proliferative phases and cyclic variability was apparent. In endometriosis, this cyclic variability was lost. There was a trend toward decreased apoptosis with increasing stage of the disease, but the differences lacked statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: Spontaneous apoptosis is decreased in the endometrial glands in women with endometriosis, especially during late secretory/menstrual and early proliferative phases of the cycle. This may indicate increased viability of endometrial cells shed during menses, facilitating their ectopic survival and implantation.
