An immunohistochemical study of MAP2 and clathrin in gerbil hippocampus after cerebral ischemia

Changes in MAP2 and clathrin immunoreactivity were studied in gerbil hippocampus after transient cerebral ischemia. MAP2 immuno-reactivity decreased significantly by 1 h in the subiculum-CA1 and CA2 areas which correspond to reactive change, while no decrease was observed in CA1 until day 4. Before the initiation of delayed neuronal death, MAP2 immunoreactivity was not changed in CA1. On the other hand clathrin immunoreactivity increased in the pyramidal cell layer of CA1 by 3 h after ischemia and remained high for 2 days. Clathrin immunoreactivity in the pyramidal cell layer of CA1 diminished after delayed neuronal death. The transient change of clathrin was noted especially in CA1 in the period prior to delayed neuronal death. These results imply an abnormal change in clathrin turnover after ischemia, which may participate in the pathogenesis of delayed neuronal death.

目的 嗅神经鞘细胞（OECs）移植联合应用胶质源性神经营养因子（GDNF）恢复大鼠脊髓损伤的功能。方法 将成年大鼠分为脊髓半切洞损伤组（A组），脊髓半切洞损伤＋嗅神经鞘细胞移植组（B）和脊髓半切洞＋嗅神经鞘细胞移植＋胶质源性神经营养因子（C组）。手术后应用联合行为评分（CBS），感觉诱发电位（SEP）和运动诱发电位（MEP）检查，测定脊髓功能恢复情况。结果 3组CBS得分A组＞B组＞C组，SEP和MEP潜峰时，均A组＞B组＞C组，统计分析均差异显著性（P＜0．05）。结论 移植嗅神经鞘细胞＋胶质源性神经营养因子能促进损伤脊髓功能的恢复。     

神经活素对Pc12细胞作用的初步观察

从胎脑、颌下腺、肌肉组织中制备神经活素。其性能同脑活素一样：可促进Ｐｃ１２细胞的突起生长，提高其胞浆内乳酸脱氢酶活性，电泳显示二者有相同的三条带。提示：神经活素有可能替代脑活素应用于临床。     

胃肠道间质瘤的临床病理研究

目的：探讨胃肠道间质瘤(gastrointestinal stromal tumor，GIST)的临床病理特点。方法：对55例GIST的病例进行分析，并对其进行CD117、CD34、S-100、SMA、vimenfin、desmin、NF共7种免疫组化分析。结果：肿瘤的发生部位：胃38例(69％)，小肠10例(18％)，其他部位7例(13％)。肿瘤直径0．4—40cm(平均6．7cm)。肿瘤最大直径≥5cm、核分裂像数≥5/50 HPF及有溃疡形成3项在良性与恶性之间差异有显著意义。免疫组化的阳性表达结果为：CD117 39例(71％)、CD34 45例(82％)、S-100 19例(35％)、SMA 12例(22％)、vimentin 32例(58％)、desmin 6例(11％)、NF2／4(50％)。13例良性GIST患者全部存活，42例恶性及潜在恶性GIST中有4例发生转移，13例死亡。结论：(1)GIST好发于中老年人，无明显性别差异。(2)其主要恶性指标为：肿瘤最大径≥5cm、核分裂像≥5／50 HPF和有溃疡形成。(3)光镜下很难将平滑肌性肿瘤及神经源性肿瘤与GIST相鉴别。     

Monoclonal antibodies to canine intra-acrosomal sperm proteins recognizing acrosomal status during capacitation and acrosome reaction

Summary.  Monoclonal antibodies Ds-1 and Ds-2 specifically labelling dog sperm acrosome were prepared by immunization of mice with acetic acid extracts of dog spermatozoa. Electron microscopy and indirect immunofluorescence localized the site of Ds-1 and Ds-2 proteins inside the acrosomal vesicle. Ds-1 antibody detected 55, 76, 115, 120 and 190kDa proteins under non-reducing conditions, and 73 kDa and 54 kDa proteins after reduction (p73/Ds-1 and p54/Ds-1). 92 kDa and 40 kDa proteins recognized by Ds-2 (p92/Ds-2 and p40/Ds-2) migrated at > 200 kDa in the absence of reducing agent. In vivo , p73/Ds-1 and p54/Ds-1 are therefore likely to be present both in free and complexed form, while all of p92/Ds-2 and p40/Ds-2 form disulfide-bonded complexes. Decrease in the rate of acrosomes stained with Ds-1 and Ds-2 was correlated with the progress of capacitation resulting in the increased rate of spontaneous acrosome reactions, as suggested by a dramatic effect of A23187. Monoclonal antibody to boar acrosin (ACR-2) recognized dog sperm acrosin homologue. A higher rate of ACR-2-negative spermatozoa was observed after capacitation and A23187 treatment compared to Ds-1 and Ds-2, indicating that proteins recognized by Ds-1 and Ds-2 are localized in a specific compartment of acrosome, distinct from acrosin and possibly representing fraction of acrosomal matrix.     

胃恶性上皮核仁组成区相关蛋白的研究

用嗜银染色技术对34例良性胃溃疡、40例胃粘膜异型增生、46例胃腺癌组织石蜡切片中的核仁组成相关蛋白(AgNOR)进行研究,25例正常胃粘膜组织作对照。发现对照组、良性溃疡组,异型增生组和腺癌组的细胞核AgNOR平均计数差异有显著性(P<0.01)。恶性细胞中AgNOR的体积、形状及在细胞核内的位置也不相同。作者认为此法有助于区别胃的良性和恶性病变。     

热休克反应对大鼠油酸肺保护作用的机制研究

未研究发现，经热休克处理的大鼠注油酸后，肺组织损伤明显减轻，Ｗｅｓｔｅｒｎ印迹分析显示热休克使大鼠肺组织中ＨＳＰ７０含量明显增多；Ｎｏｒｔｈｅｒｎ印迹分析证实此乃由于ＨＳＰ７０ｍＲＮＡ转录增加所致。说明热休克处理使肺组织ＨＳＰ７０基因表达增强；提示热休克反应对大鼠油酸肺的保护作用与肺组织细胞中ＨＳＰ７０基因表达增强及与ＨＳＰ７０增多有关。     

Zinc ions and alkaline PH alter the phosphorylated state of proteins 3 and 4.2 in human erythrocyte membranes

The phosphorylation patterns of isolated red blood cell (RBC) membranes labeled with [ γ-³²p]ATP are altered by Zn⁺⁺ ions. Zn⁺⁺ ions caused an increased phosphate incorporation into a 72 KDa protein and several proteins in the 40–60 KDa region and a decrease in the labeling of a 53 KDa protein. The 72 KDa and 53 KDa proteins have been identified as protein 4.2 and a protease-cleaved fragment of protein 3, respectively. Evidence suggests that the changes in phosphorylation pattern may be due to the stimulation of endogenous membrane alkaline phosphatase(s). Our results suggest that Zn⁺⁺, at physiological concentrations in the intact erythrocyte, could modulate the phosphorylation of selected proteins which may regulate their association in the cytoskeletal network.
