目的研究肾草酸钙结石形成对肾组织bikunin基因和间α胰蛋白酶抑制物(IαI)蛋白表达的影响,探讨bikunin在尿结石形成中的意义。方法诱导实验性大鼠肾草酸钙结石模型,收集结石大鼠、正常大鼠、临床肾结石和非结石患者每组各8例的肾组织标本。采用免疫组化、逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)和计算机图像分析技术分别检测所有大鼠和人肾组织中bikuninmRNA和IαI蛋白的表达水平。结果正常大鼠和非结石患者肾组织均存在bikuninmRNA和IαI蛋白的表达。肾草酸钙结石形成后,结石大鼠肾组织IαI蛋白的灰度值和bikuninmRNA的相对表达水平分别为198.43±15.17、0.70±0.14;肾结石患者肾组织IαI蛋白的灰度值和bikuninmRNA的相对表达水平分别为263.25±17.41、1.27±0.13,分别和对照组相比,均显著增加(P<0.05)。结论Bikunin作为构成IαI的轻链结构,在肾草酸钙结石形成后,bikuninmRNA的表达迅速增强,提示机体通过肾脏合成更多的bikunin来抑制肾草酸钙结石的形成。     

Thyrotrophin-Releasing Hormone Raises Cytosolic Free Calcium Concentration in Human Adenomatous Somatotrophs and Corticotrophs; Comparison with in vivo Responsiveness to Thyrotrophin-Releasing Hormone in Patients with Acromegaly or Cushing's Disease

The effect of thyrotrophin-releasing hormone (TRH) on intracellular free Ca²⁺ concentration, [Ca²⁺)i, was investigated with the fluorescent dye fura-2 in cell suspensions obtained from 13 human growth hormone-secreting adenomas and 6 adrenocorticotrophin-secreting adenomas. Preoperatively, 9 out of 13 acromegalic patients showed a positive growth hormone response to TRH administration while none of the 6 patients with Cushing's disease had a plasma adrenocorticotrophin increase after TRH injection. In all the growth hormone-secreting adenomas the addition of TRH (100 nM) caused a significant rise in [Ca²⁺]i (from a resting level of 133±40 (±SD) to a value of 284±119 nM at 100 nM TRH, n = 42; P<0.001). The transient induced by TRH was found to have a dual origin, one due to Ca²⁺ mobilization from intracellular stores which was maintained in presence of EGTA (3mM) and verapamil (10 μM) and a plateau phase due to Ca²⁺ influx from the extracellular media. Somatostatin (0.1 μM) lowered both resting [Ca²⁺]i and TRH-induced transients. The effect of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone on [Ca²⁺]i was evaluated on cell suspensions obtained from 6 growth hormone-secreting adenomas. Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (100 nM) caused a marked rise in [Ca²⁺]i (from 179±25 to 283±15nM) on the cell suspension obtained from the only in vivo responsive adenoma while it was ineffective in the remaining 5. Although TRH was ineffective in modifying plasma adrenocorticotrophin levels in all patients with Cushing's disease, in 5 out of 6 tumors the addition of 100 nM TRH caused a significant rise in [Ca²⁺]i (from 102.5 ± 36 to 163±66 nM, n = 22; P < 0.005). However, the effect of TRH on [Ca²⁺]i was significantly lower than that caused by arginine vasopressin, a physiological stimulator of adrenocorticotrophin release ([Ca²⁺]i values; 145±78 nM at 100 nM TRH versus 300±140 at 10 nM arginine vasopressin, n = 15; P<0.05). Moreover, the effect of arginine vasopressin on [Ca²⁺]i was detectable at concentrations as low as 0.1 nM while TRH was effective at concentrations higher than 1 nM. By contrast, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone was ineffective in increasing [Ca²]i in all the adrenocorticotrophin-secreting adenomas studied. Collectively, these data indicate that sensitivity to TRH is present in almost all the growth hormone- and adrenocorticotrophin-secreting adenomas independently of the responsiveness of the individual patients to the peptide.

TEN YEARS' EXPERIENCE IN LOW VISION PRACTICE

The Low Vision Clinic at the Palmerston North Hospital has now been oerating for 70 years. Over the course of these ten years a number of factors have emerged which can be as readily applied to general ophthalmological practice as to low vision practice. The philosophy of low vision care is one of which all ophthalmologists should be aware and includes factors to be taken into account when dealing with children, people in the workplace, and everyday factors involved in daily living activities, all of which are equally relevant in routine ophthalmological practice. This paper endeavours to share some thoughts on these factors and also discusses means by which the visually handicapped can be helped in areas where specialist low vision services are not readily available.     

Fibronectin inhibits endocytosis of calcium oxalate crystals by renal tubular cells

BACKGROUND: Fibronectin (FN; 230 kDa) is a multifunctional alpha2-glycoprotein distributed throughout the extracellular matrix and body fluids. We recently reported that FN has a protective effect against injury of renal tubular cells by exposure to oxalate and calcium oxalate (CaOX) crystals and inhibits the adhesion of CaOX crystals to renal tubular cells. In the study presented here, we investigated whether FN has inhibitory effect on crystal endocytosis by renal tubular cells. METHODS: The inhibitory effect of FN on endocytosis of CaOX crystals by MDCK cells was examined by using a radioactivity uptake assay. Also, crystal endocytosis by cells was morphologically assessed by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). RESULTS: FN had inhibitory effects on CaOX crystal endocytosis by MDCK cells. The morphological TEM study showed that few crystals were taken into cells when FN was added compared to the number of crystals when FN was not added. CONCLUSION: We found that FN had the inhibitory effects on the interaction between crystals and renal tubular cells, including the adhesion or endocytosis of crystals by cells.
