SA、F/TPSA及PSAD在前列腺癌诊断中的作用

目的 :探讨血清前列腺特异抗原 (PSA) ,血清总PSA及游离PSA比值 (F/TPSA)及前列腺特异性抗原密度(PSAD)在前列腺癌诊断中的作用。方法 :对 5 1例前列腺癌患者及 14 5例良性前列腺增生症患者PSA、F/TPSA及PSAD值的差异进行分析、比较。结果 :前列腺癌组血清PSA及PSAD高于良性前列腺增生组 ;而F/TPSA值低于良性前列腺增生组 ,差异均有显著性。结论 :PSA >4ng·ml-1作为筛选前列腺癌的临界值存在一定缺陷 ;当PSA <10ng·ml-1,F/T值有助于鉴别前列腺癌和良性前列腺增生 ;而PSAD对于筛选前列腺活检病例亦有一定价值。     

逆转录-聚合酶链反应检测胃癌淋巴结微转移

目的 检测胃癌常规病理检查阴性的淋巴结微转移的发生及与其它临床参考指标的关系。方法 利用逆转录－聚合酶链反应（RT－PCR）方法检测68枚胃癌胃周淋巴结癌胚抗原（CEA）mRNA基因表达，同时比较RT－PCR与免疫组化（IHC）方法的检测敏感性。结果 CEAmRNA RT－PCR是一种很敏感的方法，可以检测1／10^6个转移的癌细胞；检测19例胃癌患者取材的68枚胃周淋巴结，IHC阳性率28％（19／68），RT－PCR阳性率57％（39－68），两组之间差异有非常显著性意义（P＜0.01）；RT－PCR阳性率与胃部临床参考指标密切相关，且随着病期进展而增大。结论 CEA mRNA RT-PCR是比免疫组化更敏感的方法，可以预测胃癌淋巴结微转移，能够有效地避免已有微小转移的患者被漏诊。     

高原低氧对大鼠学习记忆影响的实验研究

目的：研究高原低氧环境对大鼠学习记忆的影响。方法：利用新生大鼠低氧模型和胎鼠低氧模型，采用爬杆实验和Morris水迷宫实验进行检测.结果：爬杆实验中习得的速度减慢，消退速度加快。Morris水迷宫实验中逃避潜伏期延长，撤除平台后跨越平台次数减少。结论：高原低氧环境下大鼠的学习记忆能力受到抑制，可能与长期低氧后海马NMDA受体数量和功能的下降有关。     

Identification of a Membrane Receptor for Retinol-Binding Protein Functioning in the Cellular Uptake of Retinal

Retinol-binding protein (RBP) is the transport protein that carries retinol in the circulation from the liver to its target tissues. The existence of a cell-surface receptor on the target cells, which mediates the uptake of retinol from RBP, has been known since 1975. Recently, it was identified as an integral transmem-brane protein named STRA6 that is inducible by retinoic acid in certain cancer cells. The receptor was found to be highly specific for RBP, with high affinity, and to be localized in all tissues known to require retinol for their function, particularly the pigment epithelium of the eye.

Spectral characteristics of early receptor potential in congenital red-green color blindness

The spectral response curve (amplitude versus wavelength) of the R₂ of the early receptor potential (ERP) was studied in normal, protan, and deutan subjects. The R₂ amplitude peaked at 520nm in most normal subjects. The R₂ at long wavelengths was smaller than normal in protans and larger than normal in deutans when the maximum amplitudes were normalized to 100% at the peak. The ratio of the R₂ amplitude at 460 nm to that at 600 nm clearly differed between protans and deutans. The ERP and the rapid off-response, which is mainly due to the cessation of the late receptor potential, were recorded in the same subjects. The ratio of the sensitivity of the rapid off-response at 500 nm to that at 600 nm was correlated with the ratio of the R₂ amplitude at 460 nm to that at 600nm (correlation coefficient, 0.823, p < 0.001). This study, in conjunction with our previous study, indicates that the abnormality is in the outer segments of the cones in protans and deutans.     

Antibody reactivity to a synthetic peptide (P62) of the Epstein-Barr nuclear antigen in sera of patients with X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measured IgG antiboody titers againt a synthetic peptide whose sequence was derived from the glycine-alanine repeating region of Epstein-Barr virus nuclear associated antigen 1 (EBNA-1). Antibody titers were determined in sera from 15 normal subjects, sera from 21 normal male siblings of X-linked lymphoproliferative syndrome (XLP) patients, from 20 XLP patients comprising a total of 42 samples, and ten samples before and ten samples after gamma-globulin therapy in ten patients with XLP. Data analysis demonstrated that while there are differences between the ELISA and ACIF, they appear to measure a similar response as demonstrated by their correlation coefficient (0.77) and the GMT to EBNA observed by both methods. No cross-reactivity of cytomegalovirus antibodies to the EBNA-1 peptide was observed by immunobv using adsorption against AD-169 infected MRC-5 cells.. However, non-specific binding was observed if samples were not pre-incubated in a 10% goat serum PBS-Tween 20 solution. This pre-treatment removed the non-specific binding that falsely elevated GMT in approximately 15% of both normal and XLP samples in ELISA. The ELISA system appears to be a sensitive, reproducible and objective test that may be useful for assessing the antibody responses of patients to the EBNA-1 protein.
