应用四环素调控系统建立可调控抗恶性疟原虫DNA疫苗的初步研究

目的 :应用四环素 (tetracycline,Tet)可调控系统建立可调控的抗恶性疟原虫的DNA疫苗。方法 :首先构建恶性疟原虫顶端膜抗原 1(AMA 1)基因和转录激活因子 (tTA或rtTA)基因的真核表达质粒pTL 8/AMA 1和pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA) ,并大量制备这两种质粒及表达转录抑制子 (tTS)的质粒pUHS6 1。以pTL 8/AMA 1、pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)和pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)加pUHS6 1/tTS免疫小鼠后 ,用四环素类似物强力霉素 (doxcycline ,dox)诱导或抑制上述DNA载体内AMA 1的表达 ,并分离小鼠血清检测针对AMA 1抗体的表达情况。结果 :①构建了真核表达质粒pTL 8/AMA 1和pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA) ;②pTL 8/AMA 1和pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)在没有被诱导表达时 (仅基础表达 ) ,可诱导明显的免疫应答。在以pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)与含tTS的pUHS6 1共同免疫后 ,可极大地降低其免疫应答。应用dox诱导pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)中的AMA 1基因表达后 ,可明显引起免疫应答。结论 :pTL 8/AMA 1(rtTA)附加pUHS6 1构成了可调节的DNA免疫系统。该系统的建立将对进一步深入研究DNA疫苗的免疫机制和调控基因表达 ,减少不良免疫反应以及进行可精确调控的基因治疗打下一定的基础

Studies on the origin of redox enzymes in seminal plasma and their relationship with results of in-vitro fertilization

Glutathione (GSH), GSH peroxidase (GPX), GSH reductase (GRD), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase-like enzyme activity were quantified in seminal plasma from normozoospermic patients, men with known distal ductal occlusion, proven fathers and male partners of couples receiving in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment for both male and female causes. Glutathione was non-detectable (< 2.5 microM) in seminal plasma. None of the enzyme activities per unit volume were lower in semen from vasectomized men, suggesting that they did not originate substantially from the testis or epididymis. The strongest relationships between enzyme activities and accessory gland markers were between zinc and GRD (r = 0.678), SOD (r = 0.602) and GPX (r = 0.548), suggesting a largely prostatic origin of these enzymes. Only weak relationships between accessory gland markers and catalase-like activity suggested a multi-glandular source of this enzyme. There was no relationship between the activity of any of the enzymes in the IVF patients with their fertilization rates in vitro or the establishment of pregnancy after IVF. Nor was there any correlation of enzyme activity with the morphology and percentage of motile spermatozoa in semen or with the percentage motility of spermatozoa immediately after swim-up or after overnight incubation. These findings suggest that the protective enzymes in the seminal plasma are contributed largely by the prostate and little by the epididymis, and that in most cases of IVF, they have no major influence on the outcome.      

The mouse Mid1 gene: implications for the pathogenesis of Opitz syndrome and the evolution of the mammalian pseudoautosomal region

We have recently reported isolation of the gene responsible for X- linked Opitz G/BBB syndrome, a defect of midline development. MID1 is located on the distal short arm of the human X chromosome (Xp22. 3) and encodes a novel member of the B box family of zinc finger proteins. We have now cloned the murine homolog of MID1 and performed preliminary expression studies during development. Mid1 expression in undifferentiated cells in the central nervous, gastrointestinal and urogenital systems suggests that abnormal cell proliferation may underlie the defect in midline development characteristic of Opitz syndrome. We have also found that Mid1 is located within the mouse pseudoautosomal region (PAR) in Mus musculus , while it seems to be X- specific in Mus spretus. Therefore, Mid1 is likely to be a recent acquisition of the M. musculus PAR. Genetic and FISH analyses also demonstrated a high frequency of unequal crossovers in the murine PAR, creating spontaneous deletion/duplication events involving Mid1. These data provide evidence for the first time that genetic instability of the PAR may affect functionally important genes. In addition, we show that MID1 is the first example of a gene subject to X-inactivation in man while escaping it in mouse. These data contribute to a better understanding of the molecular content and evolution of the rodent PAR.      

Expression of blood group antigens including HLA markers in human adult liver

The localisation of the principal blood group antigens has been studied in human liver. These blood group antigens included the erythrocyte antigens and the antigen of the major histocompatibility complex. This study was performed by the indirect immunofluorescence technique using polyclonal antibodies of human or animal origin and monoclonal antibodies from hybridomas. This study has shown that the normal hepatocyte is lacking in blood group antigens. On the contrary, the biliary cell was rich in antigenic markers: the main antigens expressed were Lewis, Pr, HLA-A and B antigens. In Kupffer cells, only i and HLA-DR antigens were clearly expressed. The endothelial cells of blood vessels mainly show A, B, H, HLA-A and B antigens; HLA-DR and Pr are slightly expressed. HLA-DR antigens were more strongly expressed on veins than on arteries. Dendritic cells have been identified in the portal space of human liver. They bore i and HLA-DR antigens.

接种白血病细胞后小鼠胸腺哺育细胞和免疫器官组织学及组织化学的变化

按种P_(388)白血病患鼠腹水后第3d,小鼠胸腺哺育细胞内的淋巴细胞,酸性磷酸酶和β-葡萄糖苷酸酶阳性率显著增加,而α-醋酸萘酯酶阳性率则下降。胸腺内胸腺细胞上述3种酶细胞化学反应阳性率均显著增加,但胸腺组织结构未见异常。淋巴结和脾脏亦未见异常变化。接种后第9d,患鼠胸腺、淋巴结和脾脏均见白血病细胞浸润、出血和细胞变性等病变,正常结构被破坏,其中淋巴细胞3种酶细胞化学反应的阳性率均显著增加。此时很难从胸腺分离出胸腺哺育细胞。本文结果提示,胸腺和胸腺哺育细胞与这种白血病的发生有密切关系。
