KOCH三角的解剖

本实验解剖了110例人心标本(成人70、儿童40)的Koch三角区,观察和测量了房室结的形态、大小、毗邻和标志。房间隔及冠状窦口上、下方均有肌束连于房室结。Todaro腱在儿童多全部为腱性;在成人,其后部为肌性。三角区的深面为左、右心房壁和室间隔顶所构成的锥形间隙,其内为进入房室结区的血管和神经。根据构成不同,可将三角区分为5个区,即前上角的纤维支架区和房室结区,其余部分自上向下分别为房间隔区、右房壁区和室间隔区。本文还讨论了这些形态结构的功能及外科意义。     

可切削渗透陶瓷玻璃料对不同堆积密度氧化铝基体的渗透

探讨了可切削渗透陶瓷 (Infiltration of Machinable- infiltrated- ceramic,MIC)渗透玻璃在不同堆积密度氧化铝基体中的渗透情况及渗透后复合体的颜色表达。在 110 0℃保温 2 h,将玻璃渗透到不同堆积密度的氧化铝基体中 ,分别测得其渗透深度和颜色参数。扫描电镜观察玻璃—氧化铝复合体断面。玻璃渗透深度的平方与氧化铝堆积密度有直线负相关关系 ,最小渗透深度为 3.0 92 m m。复合体的颜色系数与氧化铝堆积密度无相关性。渗透复合体在断裂过程中可见 :裂纹偏转、晶体拔出和穿晶断裂。本实验证实 MIC渗透玻璃的渗透性能达到临床要求。渗透后的复合体颜色稳定 ,强度可靠     

A female with X‐linked Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in a family with inherited central diabetes Insipidus: Case report and review of the literature

There are two forms of diabetes insipidus, central (neurohypophyseal), and nephrogenic, caused by pathogenic variants in the AVP gene and the AVPR2 or AQP2 genes, respectively. We report on a four‐generation family, seven individuals had central diabetes insipidus (CDI) and the female index patient seen from age 16 to 26 years had (mild) nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. In her father with CDI, a known pathogenic heterozygous AVP variant c.232_234del p.(Glu78del) was identified, confirming the diagnosis of CDI in him and the other affected family members. In the proband, molecular analysis disclosed a novel heterozygous AVPR2 gene variant, c.962A > T p.(Asn321Ile) and an extremely skewed X‐inactivation, confirming X‐linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (XL‐NDI). Whole exome sequencing showed no further causative mutation. This is the first report on the co‐existence of CDI and NDI in one family. Our review of symptomatic female AVPR2 heterozygotes includes 23 families with at least one affected female (including this study). There were 21 different causative mutations. Mutation types in females did not differ from those in males. Both severe XL‐NDI and mild forms were reported in females. All six females with severe XL‐NDI had complete loss‐of‐function (null) mutations. The remaining 17 female probands had milder XL‐NDI caused by 14 missense variants and three null variants of the AVPR2 gene. X‐inactivation was studied in nine of these females; all showed extreme or slight skewing. The review underlines that XL‐NDI in female AVPR2 heterozygotes is always accompanied by skewed X‐inactivation, emphasizing a need for X‐inactivation studies in these females.     

Characterization of erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae in Korea, and In Vitro activity of telithromycin against erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae

To characterize the phenotypes and genotypes of erythromycin-resistant clinical isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Korea and to evaluate the in vitro activity of telithromycin against these erythromycin-resistant isolates, we tested a total of 676 isolates of S. pneumoniae collected from 1997 to 2002 in a tertiary hospital in Seoul, Republic of Korea. MICs for erythromycin and telithromycin were determined by the agar dilution method. The macrolide resistance phenotypes of erythromycin-resistant isolates were determined by the erythromycin- clindamycin-rokitamycin triple disk (ECRTD) and MIC induction tests, whereas their macrolide resistance genotypes were determined by PCR for the erm(B), erm(A), subclass erm(TR), and mef genes. To discriminate between mef(A) and mef(E), PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analyses were performed. Of the 676 S. pneumoniae isolates, 459 (67.9%) were resistant to erythromycin. Of the 459 erythromycin-resistant isolates, 343 (74.7%) were assigned to the cMLS phenotype, 48 (10.4%) to the iMcLS phenotype, 4 (0.9%) to the iMLS phenotype, and 64 (14.0%) to the M phenotype. The erm(B) gene was detected in 251 (54.6%) isolates, the mef gene was detected in 64 (14.0%), and both the erm(B) and mef genes were detected in 144 (31.4%) isolates. All of the mef genes detected were identified as mef(E). Of the 459 erythromycin- resistant isolates, all but one were susceptible to telithromycin. The MIC(50)/MIC(90) to telithromycin of isolates carrying erm(B), mef(E), and both genes was 0.06/0.5 microg/ml, 0.03/0.125 microg/ml, and 0.5/1.0 microg/ml, respectively. Although the MICs of telithromycin for the erythromycin-resistant isolates varied according to genotype, telithromycin was very active against these erythromycin-resistant S. pneumoniae.

TGFβ1基因对血管内皮细胞细胞外基质表达及与基质黏附的影响

了解TGFβ1基因对血管内皮细胞表达细胞外基质蛋白及与基质黏附力的影响。用DOTAP脂质体转染p MAMneo TGFβ1于原代培养的脐静脉内皮细胞,经G4 18筛选,TGFβ1表达经免疫荧光鉴定。Western blot确定 型胶原、纤黏连蛋白的表达,微管吸吮系统确定内皮细胞与基质的黏附力。结果表明生理情况下的内皮细胞能表达少量的TGFβ1及胶原、纤黏连蛋白。经G4 18筛选,外源性TGFβ1在血管内皮细胞中稳定表达,能显著提高胶原、纤黏连蛋白纤维的表达及细胞与基质的黏附。说明TGFβ1在血管组织工程中促进内皮细胞的黏附具有一定的应用价值。
