84例周围血管病的足甲襞微循环观察

对84例周围血管病(脉管炎68例,静脉炎16例)和25例正常健康人进行了足甲襞微循环的对比观察。结果:患病组足甲襞微循环的血管形态、流态、管周状态均较正常健康组有明显差异(P<0.01)。提示:更接近病变部位的局部微循环观察更能代表病变的程度,对临床医生判断病情、选择用药和疗效观察都有很大帮助和参考价值。

High density of immobilized galactose ligand enhances hepatocyte attachment and function

Galactosylated surface is an attractive substrate for hepatocyte culture because of the specific interaction between the galactose ligand and the asialoglycoprotein receptor on hepatocytes. In this study, we described a scheme to achieve high density of immobilized galactose ligands on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surface by first surface-grafting polyacrylic acid on plasma-pretreated PET film under UV irradiation, followed by conjugation of a galactose derivative (1-O-(6'-aminohexyl)-D-galactopyranoside) to the grafted polyacrylic acid chains. A high galactose density of 513 nmol/cm(2) on the PET surface was used in this study to investigate the behavior of cultured hepatocyte. This engineered substrate showed high affinity to fluorescein isothiocyanate-lectin binding. Primary rat hepatocytes, when seeded at a density of 2 x 10(5) cells/cm(2), attached to the galactosylated PET substrate at a similar efficiency compared with collagen-coated substrate. The hepatocytes spontaneously formed aggregates 1 day after cell seeding and showed better maintenance of albumin secretion and urea synthesis functions than those cultured on collagen-coated surface.     

腰骶部SPR术中脊神经前后根定位的应用解剖

目的：为ＳＰＲ提供可靠的术中脊神经前、后根鉴别的解剖学依据。方法：在２０例成人脊柱标本上,去除后部结构,暴露整个马尾神经,对Ｌ１～Ｓ２节段的前后根进行形态学观察和测量。结果：脊神经后根位于马尾的后半部,前根则位于前半部。脊神经后根较相应的前根粗大,后根从Ｌ１～Ｓ１逐渐增大,以Ｓ１为最粗大;前根则以Ｌ３最粗大。相应前后根出硬脊膜前,有一段相互贴附并紧贴硬脊膜侧壁。结论：在多椎板切除ＳＰＲ术中前、后根的定位及鉴别,暴露时可根据前、后根出硬脊膜前的相互贴附;在限制性椎板切除时则可通过脊髓外侧索和Ｌ１前、后根之间的最下端的齿状韧带加以鉴别     

Assessment of HBV persistent infection in an adult population in Taiwan

In order to study the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in the adult population of Taiwan, we screened for the presence of HBV DNA in 205 blood samples from adult (20-59-year-old) volunteers. According to the serological markers of HBV, samples were divided into three groups: group I (173 subjects) was negative for both HBsAg and HBeAg; group II (14 subjects) was positive for both HBsAg and HBeAg; and group III consisted of 18 subjects who were HBsAg-positive but HBeAg-negative. Plasma HBV DNA was not detected in group I, but it was found in 85.7% and 11.8% of samples in group II and group III, respectively. A free-form HBV DNA was found in 14.3% of the leukocyte samples in group II. Furthermore, an integrated form of HBV DNA was detected in the leukocytes of two cases of group I who remained healthy based on clinical data. HBV DNA was also detected in the spermatozoa and liver cells of one of the cases.     

Involvement of protein kinase c in responses of rat dorsal horn neurons to mechanical stimuli and periaqueductal gray descending inhibition

 The effects of a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), on the activity and periaqueductal gray (PAG)-induced inhibition of rat dorsal horn neurons of the lumbar spinal cord were tested. A microdialysis fiber was placed through the dorsal horn for the purpose of local application of pharmacological agents. Extracellular single-unit recordings from dorsal horn neurons were made near the microdialysis fiber. TPA was tested on nociceptive dorsal horn cells. There was a significant increase in the background activity and responses to ”brush”, with no changes in responses to pressure and pinch stimuli. TPA also significantly blocked the PAG-induced inhibition of responses to brush, press, and pinch. These effects were eliminated by coadministration of the PKC inhibitor NPC-15437. The solvent, which contained dimethyl sulfoxide, was also tested for its effect on the responses to peripheral mechanical stimuli and PAG-induced inhibition of the dorsal horn neurons. There were no significant changes. This experiment suggests that activation of the PKC second messenger system might increase the activity of dorsal horn neurons and their responses to peripheral stimuli; in addition, the phorbol ester attenuated the PAG-induced descending inhibition of the dorsal horn neuron activity.
