神经肽P物质对肉芽组织成纤维细胞增殖及表皮生长因子基因表达的作用

目的：探讨感觉神经肽P物质（SP）对离体培养的肉芽组织成纤维细胞的促增殖作用及其对表皮生长因子（EGF）基因表达的调控作用。方法：采用MTT法测定SP对肉芽组织成纤维细胞的促增殖作用；采用逆转录－聚合酶链反应（RT－PCR）方法检测SP对成纤维细胞EGF基因表达的调控作用，观察时间及剂量－效应关系。结果：10^-9～10^-5mol/L的SP在体外对肉芽组织成纤维细胞均具有明显的促增殖作用（P＜0．01），且具有明显的剂量依赖性（γ=0.594,P＜0．01），EGF抗体只能部分抑制这一作用（与对照组比较，P＜0．01；与10^-7mol/L SP组比较，P＜0．05）。10^-7mol/L SP可诱导成纤维细胞EGF mRNA的表达，在作用后6h与对照组比较，差异有非常显著性意义（P＜0．01）；SP在10^-8～10^-6mol/L范围内可以显著促进成纤维细胞EGF mRNA表达，在10^-7mol/L达到峰值，当浓度＞10^-7mol/L时，其促EGF mRNA表达的效应强度随浓度升高而有所降低，至10^-5mol/L时与对照组比较，差异无显著性意义。结论：SP对肉芽组织成纤维细胞具有明显的促增殖作用，这种作用与其诱导成纤维细胞EGF表达有关。

小儿氨基酸注射液治疗胎儿宫内发育迟缓的探讨

经临床鉴定静脉内注射小儿氨基酸对治疗胎儿宫内发育迟缓具有肯定效果。在Ｂ超监视下，使用小儿氨基酸的孕妇组于用药期间，胎儿生长参数ＢＰＤ和ＨＣ显著高于使用成人氨基酸的孕妇组。１０例足月娩出胎儿体重均达到甚至超过２．５ｋｇ。由此得出结论：使用小儿氨基酸注射液对于改善胎儿宫内发育迟缓优于成人氨基酸。     

生长激素治疗对GHD患儿免疫功能的影响

对生长激素缺乏症（GHD）患儿生长激素（GH）治疗前后的免疫功能改变进行了观察。结果显示：（1）GHD患儿NK细胞活性明显降低，经GH治疗3个月后恢复到正常水平；（2）GHD患儿治疗前IL－1a和IL－2活性偏低，治疗后两者有逐渐增高的趋势；（3）治疗前后CD细胞亚群、sIL－2R和LPS诱生的TNFa含量均无明显变化。认为GH缺乏症患儿存在一定的免疫功能缺陷，而GH有调节其免疫功能的作用。     

Collagen synthesis activities of chondrocytes from histologically distinct zones of chick embryo tibia

Monolayer cultures of 12-day chick embryo chondrocytes from the regions of dividing (zone 1), elongated (zone 2), and hypertrophied (zone 3) chondrocytes in the tibial cpiphyseal growth plate were analyzed for their capacity to synthesize types II, IX, X, and XI collagens. Synthesis of types II and IX collagens was markedly elevated in the zone 2 culture, while type X collagen synthesis was maximal in zone 3. Type XI collagen was synthesized at low rates in all cultures, with some elevation of its rate in zones 2 and 3. In terms of mol percent of total collagen synthesis, types II and IX collagens decreased from zone 1 to zone 3, while type X collagen increased progressively. Thus, the composition of the extracellular collagens produced by the different zones changed markedly during chondrocyte differentiation. In addition, type X collagen was released exclusively into the culture medium, whereas type XI collagen was retained in the extracellular cell-associated matrix. In contrast, types II and IX collagens were found in both the culture medium and the cell matrix pools. Although types II and IX collagens showed similar changes during differentiation, the synthetic molar ratios of these two collagens varied from 3 to 18 in different cultures, suggesting that the synthesis of these two products is not tightly coupled in these cells.

Insulin-like growth factor I promotes leiomyoma cell growth in vitro

Objective: Our purpose was to determine whether insulin-like growth factors I and II preferentially stimulate uterine leiomyoma cells versus myometrial cells in monolayer culture.Study design: Leiomyomas and normal myometrium were obtained at hysterectomy from five premenopausal women. Specimens were enzymatically digested for use in primary monolayer cell cultures. By use of serum-free media, insulin-like growth factor I or II was added in 1, 10, and 100 ng/ml concentrations to both cell types with the patient serving as her own control. Cell number, prolactin production, and proliferative index values were measured on day 15 of cell culture.Results: Significant increases in cell number were found in the leiomyoma cultures (p < 0.05) treated with 10 and 100 ng/ml insulin-like growth factors I but not with insulin-like growth factos II. Neither factor exerted a stimulatory effect on myometrial cells.Conclusion: Insulin-like growth factor sI preferentially stimulates leiomyoma cells in monolayer culture. These results suggest an autocrine-paracine role in vivo for this factor in conjuction with gonadal steroids in promoting leiomyoma growth.     

Association of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression with Tumor Angiogenesis and with Early Relapse in Primary Breast Cancer

Angiogenesis is an independent prognostic indicator in breast cancer. In this report, the relationship between expression of vascular endothclial growth factor (VEGF; a selective mitogen for endothelial cells) and the microvessel density was examined in 103 primary breast cancers. The expression of VEGF was evaluated by immunocytochemical staining using anti-VEGF antibody. The microvessel density, which was determined by immunostaining for factor VIII antigen, in VEGF-rich tumors was clearly higher than that in VEGF-poor tumors ( P <0.01). There was a good correlation between VEGF expression and the increment of microvessel density. Furthermore, postoperative survey demonstrated that the relapse-free survival rate of VEGF-rich tumors was significantly worse than that of VEGF-poor tumors. It was suggested that the expression of VEGF is closely associated with the promotion of angiogenesis and with early relapse in primary breast cancer.
