多抗甲素对人NK细胞活性的作用机理研究

作者应用单细胞细胞毒试验及形态学观察，研究多抗甲素（ＰＡＡ）对人体自然杀伤（ＮＫ）细胞活性的作用机理。结果表明：ＰＡＡ能增强食道癌患者淋巴细胞（ＰＢＬ）明显低下的结合率（Ｂ％）和杀伤率（Ｋ％），也可增强正常人ＰＢＬ的Ｋ％，但对正常人ＰＢＬ的Ｂ％无影响。形态学观察发现：与靶细胞结合的ＰＢＬ除大颗粒ＰＢＬ外，尚有普通的非颗粒ＰＢＬ，结合的靶细胞损伤首先表现为线粒体肿胀、空泡变，然后核固缩，核膜损伤，细胞严重空泡变性等，偶见靶细胞与自然杀伤细胞结合部质膜破损的现象。经ＰＡＡ预处理的靶效细胞结合的形态改变无明显差异，但食道癌组的杀伤作用出现较早，且明显增强。     

Neuroblastoma of the Anterior Mediastinum in an 80-Year-Old Woman

A 7-cm anterior mediastinal tumor in an 80-year-old woman was found by light and electron microscopy to be a neuroblastoma. Immunoreactivity for neuron-specific enolase, synaptophysin, and chromogranin supported the diagnosis. Neuroblastoma is an uncommon tumor in adults and we are not aware of a previous report of such a tumor in a patient of this age.     

Apatite Determination and Distribution in an Early Stage of Gallbladder Calcification

This study is concerned with the nature and distribution of mineral in the gallbladder of a patient with chronic cholecystitis. Light and electron microscopic imaging revealed the mineral to be in the epithelial cells of the mucosa and fibroblasts of the submucosa. In the epithelial cells at the early stages of deposition, mineral was located in the nuclei and throughout the cytoplasm in association with interdigitating cell processes and apical microvilli but was absent in mitochondria. Elemental and electron diffraction analyses indicated the mineral inclusions to be apatite in nature.     

Outer dense fibres of human spermatozoa: partial characterization and possible physiological functions

The outer dense fibres are accessory fibres in the spermatozoon. They represent up to 30% of the protein portion in human spermatozoa and are involved in sperm progressive motility. If outer dense fibres are missing or developed poorly, spermatozoa are only locally motile. For isolation of the outer dense fibres, human spermatozoa were sonicated at 25 kHz and the flagella were separated by density gradient centrifugation in Percoll. Thereafter, membranes and fibrous sheath were dissolved under reducing conditions in the cationic detergent cetyltrimethylammonium bromide for 30, 60 and 90 min, respectively. The isolation steps were monitored by phase contrast microscopy and electron microscopy. After SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining of isolated outer dense fibres, two protein bands at 55 and 67 kDa could be detected. By means of rhodamine B staining, no phosphorus could be detected in the outer dense fibre proteins.     

Localization of Pituitary Adenylate Cyclase-Activating Polypeptide (PACAP) in the Hypothalamus-Pituitary System in Rats: Light and Electron Microscopic Immunocytochemical Studies

The localization of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) in the hypothalamus-pituitary system in rats was examined in light and electron microscopic immunocytochemistry using a specific antiserum to synthetic PACAP 1–38 (R0831). In light microscopic study, intensely PACAP-immunostained perikarya were observed in the supraoptic and paraventricular magnocellular nucleus in the hypothalamus. In the median eminence, many immunoreactive nerve fibers were observed in the internal layer, but a few immunoreactive terminals were noticed in the external layer. In the pituitary gland, numerous immunoreactive nerve fibers were observed in the posterior lobe. In the intermediate lobe, moderately immunostained cells were observed, but in the anterior lobe no immunostained cells were noticed. In electron microscopic study, PACAP-immunoreactivity was examined by avidin-biotin peroxidase complex method. In the perikarya of the supraoptic and paraventricular magnocellular nucleus, DAB-reaction products were distributed diffusely in the cytoplasmic matrix, frequently attaching to the rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. In the nerve terminals of the posterior lobe, reaction products were observed among the secretory granules, but sometimes upon them. In the cells of the intermediate lobe, reaction products were also distributed in the cytoplasmic matrix.     

富氧气体防护下暴发性缺氧大鼠大脑超微病理变化

目的 从亚细胞水平观察大鼠在12 000m高度暴发性缺氧及富氧气体防护时大脑顶叶皮质组织超微结构变化，为高空暴发性缺氧的防护和治疗提供理论依据。方法 将24只雄性Wistar大鼠随机分为地面对照组、3000m对照组、12000m暴发性缺氧组、12000m吸90％富氧气体防护组、12000m吸100％氧气防护组、12000m吸50％富氧气体防护组，每组4只。于低压舱内暴露于12000m高度30min，然后将动物即刻处死，取大脑顶叶皮质层组织，制成切片，透射电镜下观察。结果与地面对照组相比，随着吸氧浓度的降低，实验组缺氧程度加重，主要表现为脑组织神经细胞、神经胶质细胞结构模糊不清，核及胞质内线粒体、内质网扩张，突触小泡减少等，以12000m暴发性缺氧组及吸50％氧气防护组明显。结论 吸100％和吸90％富氧气体防护效果是理想的，与地面对照组和3000m对照组的结果无明显差别。

人鼻粘膜表面超微结构及纤毛输送功能的研究

研究结果表明:①人鼻粘膜的上皮在胚胎期的发育并不完善。在新生儿,纤毛上皮细胞的融合刚刚开始,其表面的纤毛呈微绒毛状。②在最常见的四种鼻粘膜炎症病变中,其超微结构的损害程度以伴有化脓性感染者最重,慢性肥厚性鼻炎与萎缩性鼻炎次之,变态反应性鼻炎最轻。③上述四种炎症病人的鼻纤毛输送能力均较正常人差,其中以伴有化脓性感染者最差,慢性肥厚性鼻炎和萎缩性鼻炎次之,变态反应性鼻炎最轻。     

人胎儿前庭器超微结构的观察

对人胎儿前庭器超微结构的研究,国内外报道甚少。本文对18至36周人胎儿颞骨10具进行了扫描电镜和透射电镜的观察,并对应用Surface preparation法制做人胎儿前庭器标本的方法进行了探讨。本文观察所见:豚鼠平衡斑的生理状态与人胎儿很近似,体面积比人胎儿平衡斑小,感觉毛长,细胞排列更整齐。28周以后的胎儿因前庭周围骨质变硬,制做标本时可以分别取出两囊斑和壶腹嵴。
