休克期大面积切痂对严重烧伤大鼠细胞免疫功能影响的研究

目的 观察休克期大面积切痂对严重烧伤大鼠细胞免疫功能的影响，探索改善烧伤后机体免疫功能紊乱的有效方法。方法 将大鼠分成休克期切痂组（A组）、常规切痂组（B组）和正常对照组（C组）。A、B组造成30％TBSAⅢ度烫伤，C组不烫伤。A组伤后第6h、B组伤后第4d切痂，并于伤后第1、5、9d各活杀10只，取材送检，观察其免疫指标的变化。结果 （1）A、B组与C组比较：A、B组烫伤大鼠各时相点CD3^＋T细胞变化不大（P〉0．05），但CD4^＋T细胞、CD4^＋／CD8^＋比值明显下降、CD8^＋T细胞增高（P〈0．05或P〈0．01）。NK细胞活性明显下降（P〈0．05或P〈0.01），外周血CD25^＋T淋巴细胞表达及经活化后脾脏CD25^＋T淋巴细胞表达明显下降（P〈0．05或P〈0．01）。（2）A组与B组比较：A组CD4^＋T细胞、CD4^＋／CD8^＋比值明显升高、CD8^＋T细胞降低（P〈0．05或P〈0．01），NK细胞活性明显升高（P〈0．05或P〈0．01），外周血CD25^＋T淋巴细胞表达及经活化后脾脏CD25^＋T淋巴细胞表达均明显升高（P〈0．05或P〈0．01）。结论 （1）大鼠烫伤后细胞免疫状况发生了明显变化。（2）休克期切痂可以改善烫伤大鼠T淋巴细胞亚群分布，提高NK细胞活性，增加外周血CD25^＋T淋巴细胞的表达。提高经活化后脾脏CD25^＋T淋巴细胞数。从而改善烫伤大鼠伤后机体的细胞免疫功能。     

肿瘤坏死因子 α抑制剂对妊娠的影响

 肿瘤坏死因子 α（TNF-α）是类风湿关节炎（RA）发病和维持关节慢性滑膜炎症反应的最重要的致炎性细胞因子之一，它在 T 细胞依赖的炎症性肠病（IBD）发病机制中也起着十分重要的致炎作用。大量临床研究证实，TNF-α抑制剂（TNFAI）可改善 RA 患者关节功能，减少 RA临床活动性，并延缓关节损坏的进展^[1]。各种 TNFAI 也逐渐用于治疗其他风湿性疾病，如银屑病、幼年特发性关节炎、强直性脊柱炎等。某些 TNFAI 被证明对难治性 IBD 有效。目前经美国 FDA 批准上市的 TNFAI 类药物共有 3 种，它们是依那西普（Etanercept，商品名Enbrel），英利西单抗（Infliximab，商品名 Remicade）和阿达木单抗（Adalimumab，商品名Humira）。依那西普是 II 型TNF受体（TNFR-II）与 IgG1-Fc 的融合蛋白，用药方式为皮下注射。英利西单抗是由人 IgG1-Fc 和鼠 Ig 可变区组成的嵌合体 TNF-α 单抗，阿达木单抗是人源 IgG1 型 TNF-α 单抗，这2 种药物均经静脉注射给药[1]。TNFAI的主要不良反应有注射部位反应、感染、肿瘤、淋巴增殖性疾病、神经脱髓鞘病变以及狼疮样综合征^[1]。由于风湿性疾病多累及生育年龄女性，同时以 TNFAI 为代表的生物制剂应用越来越广泛，TNFAI 对妊娠是否有影响日益受到临床关注。我们复习了2007 年 2 月1日以前 PubMed 中关于上述 3 种 TNFAI对妊娠影响的临床观察文献，现综述如下。......     

Interstitial Stress and Fluid Pressure Within a Growing Tumor

A solid tumor is composed of a population of cells that is expanding as a result of cell division. With dense cell packing, the solid matrix of the interstitial tissue is subject to residual stress. In addition, elevated interstitial fluid pressure (IFP) has been reported by researchers for a number of solid tumors. These features were incorporated into a mathematical model that predicts the mechanical response of a solid tumor within its host environment. A theoretical framework accounting for volumetric expansion, transvascular exchange and extravascular transport of fluids was developed using poroelastic theory, and applied to a spherical, vascularized, alymphatic tumor undergoing small growth increments. Simulations of tumor IFP were similar to those predicted by Jain and Baxter (Ref. 23), showing elevated IFP that is driven by microvascular fluid pressure. Tumor growth, tissue stiffness, and IFP contribute to the compressive stresses predicted in the solid tumor interior. Tensile and compressive stresses were predicted in adjacent host tissues corresponding to radial and circumferential directions, respectively. An application of this model includes a solid stress-based framework for predicting regions of vascular collapse within the tumor interior. © 2003 Biomedical Engineering Society.

调控中性白细胞凋亡有关因素的体外实验

目的:用体外实验观察多种因素(包括亚砷酸钠、TNF-α、IL-6及烧伤血清、创伤血清)对中性白细胞(PMN)凋亡的影响,为探索一种新的保护组织免遭继发性损害的方法提供依据。方法:分离纯化人外周血PMN,与亚砷酸钠(Ars)、TNF-α、IL-6及烧伤血清、创伤血清作用后,测定凋亡比例、CD 11 b表达、呼吸爆发、胞质Ca²⁺浓度的改变。结果:Ars浓度与PMN凋亡呈剂量依赖关系,激活的PMN却对Ars失敏;IL-6使PMN凋亡延迟(与24 h对照相比,P＜0.05),抑制CD 11 b表达(与24 h对照相比,P＜0.01);烧伤血清和创伤血清的作用较IL-6更为明显。结论:发现PMN激活后对Ars失敏,其机理不清;CD 11 b表达升高与PMN凋亡增多呈正相关;IL-6、烧伤血清、创伤血清能延迟PMN凋亡,部分恢复PMN的功能。     

Ultrastructural features of solid/trabecular areas in differentiated thyroid carcinoma

The presence of areas exhibiting a solid/trabecular pattern of growth within an otherwise differentiated thyroid carcinoma represents a source of controversy as regards its proper classification and biologic and prognostic significance. The aim of the current study was to investigate the ultrastructural features of solid/trabecular areas in differentiated thyroid carcinoma and to compare those features with the submicroscopic profile of differentiated, poorly differentiated (insular), and undifferentiated (anaplastic) variants of thyroid cancer. The study series included differentiated carcinoma with solid/trabecular areas (3 cases), conventional papillary carcinoma (4 cases), follicular variant of papillary carcinoma (4 cases), poorly differentiated (insular) carcinoma (3 cases), and undifferentiated (anaplastic) carcinoma (3 cases). It was found that the solid/trabecular areas in differentiated carcinoma and poorly differentiated (insular) carcinoma share similar ultrastructural features and overall retain, even if attenuated, many of the submicroscopic attributes of differentiated carcinomas. In particular, nests of neoplastic cells were observed showing a highly developed cytosecretory apparatus and the presence of numerous abortive/rudimentary follicles, and intercellular and intracellular (intracytoplasmic) lumina/canaliculi of variable morphology. The study supports the hypothesis that the solid/trabecular areas do not merely represent an architectural pattern but rather should be regarded as the expression of a process of reduced differentiation similar to that of poorly differentiated (insular) carcinoma.

目的观察右旋柠烯乳剂(D-limonene)对小鼠移植瘤生长及转移的抑制作用。方法用小鼠S180癌性腹水建立皮下移植瘤模型,随机分为3组,预防组建模当天开始给药;治疗组移植后第5天开始给药;对照组不给药。每3d测量肿瘤大小,20d后取材,观察肿瘤细胞的浸润程度及淋巴结转移。结果对照组肿瘤体积较大,与皮肤及深部组织发生粘连,7只发现颈部或腋下淋巴结肿大。治疗组和预防组移植瘤生长速度明显缓慢,体积小,且瘤体较规则,未发现有淋巴结转移者。结论右旋柠烯有抑制肿瘤生长,减少淋巴结转移的作用,其机制有待进一步探讨。     

Antigenic and immunogenic mimicry of the HER2/neu oncoprotein by phage-displayed peptides

To recover peptides that antigenically and immunogenically mimic the p185^HER2 oncoprotein, we selected the phage-peptide libraries pVIII-9aa and pVIII-9aa. Cys using murine monoclonal antibodies (mAb) MGr2 and MGr6, directed against two distinct epitopes of the p185^HER2 extracellular domain. Phagedisplayed peptides containing consensus amino acid motifs were recovered and shown to compete specifically for mAb binding on tumor cells that overexpress p185^HER2. The deduced amino acid sequence of the peptides suggests that both epitopes defined by the mAb on p185^HER2 are discontinuous and that hydrophobic interactions are involved in binding with the mAb. A phage clone displaying the GPLDSLFAQ peptide elicited a specific immune response against the p185^HER2 in BALB/c mice, demonstrating that this phage-displayed peptide represents an immunological equivalent of the MGr2 epitope on p185^HER2 and might be used as a substitute for this oncoprotein in in vitro and in vivo immunological studies.
