膝屈曲状态胫股关节压应力光弹性分析

以胫股关节光弹材料模型模拟膝关节在屈曲０°、１０°、２０°和３０°状态下加载。结果显示胫股间接触面积内髁大于外髁，应力分布外髁大于内髁，最大应力分布于接触部位中心点附近。随着膝关节屈曲角度增加，（１）中心点后移，３０°以内胫股间打滑率内侧为４０．２３％，外侧为４５．９２％；（２）胫骨平台两中心点内移，中心点间距增加；（３）胫股间接触面积减少；（４）应力峰值增加，其增加率远大于面积减少率。实验结果提示膝关节畸形矫正时，要注意恢复胫股间的正常对合与应力分布。     

内毒素所致DIC时血小板胞浆Ca^2＋浓度变化的研究

本实验观察内毒素在体外对兔血小板胞浆游离钙浓度[Ca~(2+)]i的作用以及用二次注射内毒素法复制DIC模型时对[Ca~(2+)]i的影响。结果表明静息血小板[Ca~(2+)]i为112±24 nM,内毒素可直接作用于血小板,使[Ca~(2+)]i呈剂量依赖性升高。内毒素致DIG时(Ca~(2+)]i可升高三倍。结果提示内毒素可能是通过升高血小板[Ca~(2+)]i而激活血小板。血小板的激活可能是导致DIC的重要发病机制之一。

Th1 memory: implications for vaccine development

Summary: T‐helper 1 (Th1) cells play a critical role, via interferon‐γ (IFN‐γ) production, in mediating intracellular killing against a variety of infectious pathogens. Thus, understanding the regulation of Th1 responses could provide better insight into vaccine design for infections requiring Th1 immunity. The cellular and molecular mechanisms that control the induction of Th1 effector cells have been well characterized. More recently, there has been substantial progress in furthering our understanding of the factors that regulate the development of Th1 memory cells. It is clear that Th1 responses are functionally heterogeneous, as defined by their ability to produce IFN‐γ. Furthermore, this heterogeneity has profound implications for the capacity of distinct lineages of Th1 cells to develop into memory cells. This review emphasizes the mechanisms controlling the differentiation of naïve CD4⁺ T cells into effector and then memory cells in a progressive manner. It highlights the importance of IFN‐γ as a positive regulator for inducing Th1 responses but a negative regulator for sustaining Th1 effector cells. In conclusion, we discuss how this current understanding of Th1 differentiation will inform vaccine design and better define immune correlates of protection.     

Enhanced osteoinduction by intramuscular grafting of BMP-beta-TCP compound pellets into murine models.

The osteoinductive effects of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP, derived from murine osteosarcoma) were studied with regard to its use combined with beta-tricalcium phosphate (beta-TCP). BMP and beta-TCP were molded into pellets by the "pressure method", originated by us and transplanted to ddY mice. Control mice received interdorsal muscular implantations of either the BMP or beta-TCP pellets. The animals were sacrificed 1, 2 and 3 weeks after grafting, for radiological, histochemical, and ultrastructural observations. The BMP-beta-TCP compound pellets induced faster cartilage and bone formation, whereas these activities were slower when pellets made solely of BMP were used. The beta-TCP pellets demonstrated no osteoinductive properties. Observations revealed two types of beta-TCP resorbing multinuclear giant cells. One was osteoclastic, expressing calcitonin receptors, having numerous mitochondria and ruffled border-like structures; the other was not osteoclastic in nature. In animals grafted with the compound pellets, a great number of osteoclastic cells gathered on the pellets, much earlier than those grafted with the pellets made of BMP alone. Then, osteoblastic bone formation over the cement lines followed an osteoclastic resorption of both beta-TCP and newly formed bone. In contrast, BMP induced few osteoclastic cells, resulting in slower bone coupling. Furthermore, the faster bone formation induced by the compound pellets seemed to be associated with the presence of beta-TCP. Porous by nature, beta-TCP would entrap BMP within its micropores, and thus, the intrinsically diffusible BMP is retained and its action consequently prolonged. In addition, the compound pellet offered increased surface contact between BMP and mesenchymal cells. Therefore, BMP-beta-TCP compound pellets induce cartilage and bone formation more rapidly than does BMP alone.     

亚低温减少大鼠短暂性全脑缺血后皮质iNOS诱导的神经元凋亡

为研究亚低温对大鼠脑缺血再灌注后皮质iNOS表达、NO产生及神经元凋亡的影响及探讨亚低温的神经保护机制,用大鼠短暂全脑缺血模型,采用Nissl染色观察存活神经元、免疫组化法检测iNOS、硝酸还原酶法检测NOx-水平和TUNEL染色结合电子显微镜观察检测凋亡神经元。结果显示:常温缺血组额叶皮质iNOS表达、NOx-水平增高,出现凋亡神经元;低温缺血组iNOS表达、NOx-水平明显低于常温缺血组,未检测到凋亡神经元。上述结果提示,脑缺血后iNOS来源的NO参与了神经元的凋亡过程,亚低温可减少大鼠短暂性全脑缺血后iNOS诱导的神经元凋亡。
