Effect of anti-interferon-γ and anti-interleukin-2 monoclonal antibody treatment on the development of actively and passively induced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in the SJL/J mouse

SJL/J mice challenged with myelin basic protein (MBP) in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) developed only mild chronic-relapsing experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) with very low incidence. However, treatment of challenged mice with anti-infeferonγ (IFN-γ) monoclonal antibody (mAb) determined severe disease in all cases. Similarly, in passive EAE, the addition of anti-IFN-γ to the in vitro MBP-activated cells at the time of transfer led to significant disease exacerbation in all recipients. The disease enhancing effect was observed only when the mAb was given at the time of active challenge or of passive transfer, but not at later times. Anti-interleukin-2 (IL-2) antibody had only a marginal effect in the active induction, but drastically reduced the manifestations of passive EAE, even when mixed with a disease-enhancing dose of anti-IFN-γ. These findings support the notion that IL-2 is required for disease induction whereas IFN-γ plays a disease-limiting role early in the development of EAE.     

深低温储皮后其抗原性改变的免疫学研究

以人皮和豚鼠皮新鲜及－１９６℃冷冻皮片匀浆做为抗原，研制出兔抗人和豚鼠的新鲜及－１９６℃冷冻皮片匀浆的可溶性蛋白高效价的免疫血清，并通过免疫电泳、火箭免疫电泳、免疫火箭扩散电泳及单相免疫扩散电泳等不同免疫学电泳的检测，分别对新鲜皮片及－１９６℃冷冻皮片抗原性改变的这一现象进行探讨与研究。结果表明：人皮、豚鼠皮其新鲜皮片的抗原成份、抗原决定簇及抗原量均显著高于相应的－１９６℃冷冻组皮片，因而证实了通过深低温冷冻的皮片其抗原性低于新鲜皮片的论断。

Evaluation of the Japanese-Chinese Herbal Medicine,Kampo, for the Treatment of Lupus Dermatoses in Autoimmune Prone MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr Mice

Kampo, a Japanese-Chinese traditional herbal medicine, has been used for the treatment of various diseases for about 3,000 years in China. Among herbal medicines, Sairei-to is well known for improving the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other collagen diseases. However, its immunosuppressive effects on autoimmune cutaneous phenomena are not completely understood. We investigated the effects of Sairei-to on the development of lupus dermatoses in autoimmune-prone MRL/Mp-lpr/lpr (MRL/lpr) mice, an animal model which spontaneously develops skin lesions similar to those seen in human lupus erythematosus. Virgin female MRL/lpr mice at 1 month of age, which were treated orally with Sairei-to, had reduced amounts of IgG deposition at the dermoepidermal junction, titers of anti-DNA antibodies and rheumatoid factor, and lymphoproliferation. These results support the use of traditional herbal medicines in patients with human RA and systemic lupus erythematosus.

开颅术后张力性气颅

报告１９８８年１２月～１９９２年１２月开颅术后张力性气颅５例，男４，女１．５例中３例治愈，２例死亡。开颅术后张力性气颅产生的主要原因是颅内占位性病变切除后，脑脊液丢失，使颅内压降低，甚至呈负压状态，外界的气体从切口进入颅内的腔隙，ＣＴ扫描或颅骨Ｘ线平片可以确定诊断，钻孔置管排气是活疗张力性气颅的有效方法，作者探讨了预防此种并发症发生的措施。     

Immunology: High fecundity rates following in- vitro fertilization and embryo transfer in antiphospholipid antibody seropositive women treated with heparin and aspirin

This study was undertaken to explore whether intervention withheparin and aspirin (H/A) in selected patients undergoing in-vitrofertilization (TVF) and embryo transfer could improve fecundityrates. Specifically, it explored the possibility that womendiagnosed with organic pelvic disease who demonstrated antiphospholipidantibodies (APA) could benefit from H/A administration in asimilar manner to that used in patients with recurrent pregnancyloss. We used an enzyme–linked immunosorbent assay forsix different phospholipids to identify patients who expressedAPA before they underwent IVF/embryo transfer. This study wasconfined to the first IVF/embryo transfer cycle that followedassessment of APA status and accordingly, the number of IVF/embryotransfer cycles corresponds with the number of patients treated.APA seropositive patients were treated with aspirin, 81 mg orallyq.d., and heparin 5000 IU s.c. b.i.d., beginning on day 1 ofcontrolled ovarian stimulation. The endpoint for success wasa live birth or an ultrasound confirming fetal cardiac activity(a viable pregnancy). The prevalence of APA in patients diagnosedwith organic pelvic disease (53%) was much higher than in thosewithout female pathology (14%). The administration of H/A toAPA seropositive patients significantly (P < 0.05) improvedthe viable pregnancy rate (49%) compared to the untreated APAseropositive group (16%). The viable pregnancy rate for APAseropositive women treated with H/A was also significantly (P< 0.001) higher than for untreated APA seronegative patients(27%). We conclude that all women undergoing IVF/embryo transfershould be tested for APA prior to initiating ovarian stimulation,and those with APA seropositivity should be treated with H/A.     

不同压力下人脐带静脉的形态变化

运用扫描电镜和光镜观察了人脐带静脉的形态结构及其在0～8.0kPa 压力下的变化.脐静脉结构类似中等动脉.内皮细胞和内弹力膜的形态随实验压力增大而改变.6.7～7.3kPa是脐静脉内膜的临界破坏压,5.3～6.7kPa 是制备脐静脉作为管道移植材料的最佳压力.     

孕妇血浆尿酸正常值及其在妊娠高血压综合征的诊断价值

测定了133名正常孕妇和133名妊高征患者的血浆尿酸,其平均值分别为324.00μmol/L和388.91μmol/L,有显著性差异,且尿酸增高程度与病情轻重有关,但两组尿酸分布大部分重叠。确定了孕妇血浆尿酸的95％正常值上限为445μmol/L,在此基础上评价了尿酸对妊高征的诊断价值,认为血浆尿酸只适合用于判断妊高征病情严重程度,不宜用于妊高征的诊断和鉴别诊断。
