The effects of plantago-mucilage A from the seeds ofPlantago asiatica on the immune responses in ICR mice

Effects of plantago-mucilage A (P-MA) on the immune responses were studied in ICR mice. Mice were divided into 4 groups (10 mice/group), and P-MA at doses of 7, 21 and 63 mg/kg were orally administered to mice once a day for 21 consecutive days. Mice were immunized and challenged with sheep red blood cells (SRBC). P-MA at 63 mg/kg/day significantly increased the body weight gain and the relative weights of spleen and thymus, as compared with those in controls. However, there were no significant effects on liver weight due to P-MA treatment. Plaque forming cells (PFC) and hemagglutination (HA) titers to SRBC were significantly enhanced in mice dosed at 21 and 63 mg/kg/day P-MA, as compared with those in controls. Delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) reaction to SRBC, phagocyte activity and circulating leukocyte were also significantly increased in mice dosed at 63 mg/kg/day P-MA. These results demonstrate that P-MA markedly enhances both humoral immune and allergic reaction to SRBC at concentrations which don’t act on the relative weight of liver.     

Blocking effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids on Na+ channels of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes.

Recent evidence indicates that polyunsaturated long-chain fatty acids (PUFAs) prevent lethal ischemia-induced cardiac arrhythmias in animals and probably in humans. To increase understanding of the mechanism(s) of this phenomenon, the effects of PUFAs on Na+ currents were assessed by the whole-cell patch-clamp technique in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. Extracellular application of the free 5,8,11,14,17-eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) produced a concentration-dependent suppression of ventricular, voltage-activated Na+ currents (INa). After cardiac myocytes were treated with 5 or 10 microM EPA, the peak INa (elicited by a single-step voltage change with pulses from -80 to -30 mV) was decreased by 51% +/- 8% (P < 0.01; n = 10) and 64% +/- 5% (P < 0.001; n = 21), respectively, within 2 min. Likewise, the same concentrations of 4,7,10,16,19-docosahexaenoic acid produced the same inhibition of INa. By contrast, 5 and 10 microM arachidonic acid (AA) caused less inhibition of INa, but both n - 6 and n - 3 PUFAs inhibited INa significantly. A monounsaturated fatty acid and a saturated fatty acid did not. After washing out EPA, INa returned to the control level. Raising the concentration of EPA to 40 microM completely blocked INa. The IC50 of EPA was 4.8 microM. The inhibition of this Na+ channel was found to be dose and time, but not use dependent. Also, the EPA-induced inhibition of INa was voltage dependent, since 10 microM EPA produced 83% +/- 7% and 29% +/- 5% inhibition of INa elicited by pulses from -80 to -30 mV and from -150 to -30 mV, respectively, in single-step voltage changes. A concentration of 10 microM EPA shifted the steady-state inactivation curve of INa by -19 +/- 3 mV (n = 7; P < 0.01). These effects of PUFAs on INa may be important for their antiarrhythmic effect in vivo.     

舰船员慢性荨麻疹与马拉色菌相关性研究

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association of Malassezia furfur with chronic urticaria in the crew members of ships. METHODS: A comparative mycological study of 126 crew members of ships with chronic urticaria and 45 normal control subjects was carried out. The 82 urticaria patients identified as positive for Malassezia furfur were divided into groups A and B to receive treatment with antihistaminics (group A) and antihistaminics combined with 2% ketoconazole shampoo(group A). RESULTS: The carrier rates of Malassezia furfur were significantly higher in urticaria patients than in the normal control subjects (P<0.01), but in view of the case ratios of the final cure or improvement, no significant difference was observed between the two groups by the end of the treatment courses (P>0.05). But 6 to 8 weeks from the end of the treatment course, better therapeutic effect was noted in group B (P<0.01), with higher rate of negative Malassezia furfur findings (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Malassezia furfur may play an important role in the prevalence of chronic urticaria among the crew members, and anti-fungal treatment may produce better long-term therapeutic effect.     

Excitation and desensitization of mouse rod photoreceptors in vivo following bright adapting light

Electroretinographic (ERG) methods were used to determine response properties of mouse rod photoreceptors in vivo following adapting illumination that produced a significant extent of rhodopsin bleaching. Bleaching levels prevailing at ∼10 min and ∼20 min after the adapting exposure were on average 14% and 9%, respectively, based on the analysis of visual cycle retinoids in the eye tissues. Recovery of the rod response to the adapting light was monitored by analysing the ERG a -wave response to a bright probe flash presented at varying times during dark adaptation. A paired-flash procedure, in which the probe flash was presented at defined times after a weak test flash of fixed strength, was used to determine sensitivity of the rod response to the test flash. Recovery of the response to the adapting light was 80% complete at 13.5 ± 3.0 min (mean ± s.d .; n = 7) after adapting light offset. The adapting light caused prolonged desensitization of the weak-flash response derived from paired-flash data. By comparison with results obtained in the absence of the adapting exposure, desensitization determined with a test-probe interval of 80 ms was ∼fourfold after 5 min of dark adaptation and ∼twofold after 20 min. The results indicate, for mouse rods in vivo , that the time scale for recovery of weak-flash sensitivity substantially exceeds that for the recovery of circulating current following significant rhodopsin bleaching. The lingering desensitization may reflect a reduced efficiency of signal transmission in the phototransduction cascade distinct from that due to residual excitation.
