Immunocytotherapy. A new trend in fetal tissue transplantation

The clinical applications of theoretical immunology are not numerous. The authors demonstrate present-day immunocytotherapeutic approaches to fetal tissue transplantation widely used in medicine. Results of therapy by injections of lymphokine-activated killer cells in combination with interleukin-2, T-cell vaccines, and genetically transformed T cells are presented.

唇腭裂矫形修复中的美学研究

本文介绍用双重牙列修复唇腭裂患者面中1/3缺陷,其特点是方法简便、效果明显和患者乐意接受.并提出评判唇腭裂患者的面容面貌改善不能单纯以正常美貌人群中面部指数作为标准,而应在介于正常人与唇腭裂患者之间寻找一个能协调、柔和、均衡、匀称的面部指数作为评判标准.     

The Effects of Afferent Stimulation on Neurons in Slices of the Medial Septal Area and Their Modulation by Biologically Active Substances in Hibernating and Awake Ground Squirrels

Evoked neuron activity in slices of the medial septal area and its modulation by neuropeptides and monoamines was studied in two groups of ground squirrels – hibernating and awake animals. Electrical stimulation of the medial forebrain bundle evoked predominantly inhibitory effects of different durations. In addition, responses were seen consisting of resetting of the phase of background volleys to the stimulus after initial inhibition; there were also small numbers of short-latency single-spike responses. All the neuropeptides tested, which had been identified from the brains of hibernating animals, induced differentiated reversible effects consisting of modulation of responses; changes in evoked activity were seen significantly more often than shifts in spontaneous activity. The effects depended on the state of the animal. Thus, peptide TSKYR increased the duration of inhibition in hibernating ground squirrels but shortened inhibition in awake animals. Peptide TSKY, which had little effect in hibernating animals, increased the duration of inhibition in awake animals. Dipeptide DY, which decreased the duration of inhibition and increased the amplitude of the activatory components of responses in hibernating ground squirrels, had little effect in awake animals. The effects of noradrenaline and serotonin correlated to a large extent with their effects on spontaneous activity. It is suggested that endogenous substances are involved in creating the conditions required for increasing the latent excitability and reactivity of septal neurons during hibernation. This allows the medial septal area to function as a sentry post, allowing the receipt of signals and urgent arousal during hibernation.     

陕西、青海、新疆三省(区)部分人群庚型肝炎病毒血清学调查

目的：调查陕西、青海、新疆三省（区）部分人群庚型肝炎病毒（HGV／GBV）血清学特征。方法：采用ELISA方法，共调查三省（区）1469份血清中GBV－IgG抗体。结果：少数民族血清GBV－IgG抗体的阳性率（藏族4．11％，蒙古族5．36％，维吾尔族4．55％，回族4．00％）略高于汉族（1．36％－1．73％），但差异无显著性（P＞0．05）；吸毒人群GBV－IgG阳性率（11．30％，34／301）明显高于正常人群（2．44％，18／736），（P＜0．01）；献血员GBV－IgG阳性率为1．02％－7．68％。结论：三省区民族间GBV－IgG抗体阳性差异无显著性，血源性传播是其重要途径，应加强对献血员及吸毒人员的监管。     

不同低温保护剂对皮肤组织β1整合素表达影响的比较

目的比较两种不同低温保护剂对皮肤组织β1 integrin低温保存后表达的影响，为寻求皮肤组织低温保护剂的最佳配方提供试验依据。方法获取新鲜成人皮肤组织分为3组．新鲜对照组、海藻糖／二甲基亚砜（T／D）组、二甲基亚砜／丙二醇（D／P）作为低温保护剂保存组，-196℃液氮冻存7d、14d复温，免疫组织化学染色对各组间皮肤进行比较。并在此基础上，进一步采用RT-PCR方法对不同低温保护剂保存后皮肤的β1 integrin基因水平进行了深入的研究。结果通过光镜图象观察和基因水平分析结果说明，0．5M海藻糖／二甲基亚砜能够很好保护皮肤组织，β1 integrin的基因表达量与新鲜皮肤组相似。结论海藻糖与二甲基亚砜联合应用对皮肤组织β1 integrin的保护作用优于传统组。
