Studies on capsaicin inhibition of chemically induced lipid peroxidation in the lung and liver tissues of rat

Previous work from this laboratory has already indicated that capsaicin, stabilizes the rat lung membrane lipid system on long-term treatment. This stabilization of the membrane is further supported by our present findings that capsaicin pretreatment causes significant inhibition of various chemically induced lipid peroxidative changes at both cellular and subcellular levels. Both in vivo and in vitro studies, using whole lung and liver tissue slices and mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, have shown that capsaicin pretreatment inhibits peroxidative changes at both cellular and subcellular levels. Both in vivo and in vitro studies, using whole lung and liver tissue slices and mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, have shown that capsaicin pretreatment inhibits peroxidative changes induced by different chemical irritants such as chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride as well as ferrous sulphate.     

病毒性肝炎病人血浆VitE水平及其临床意义

观测了急性肝炎和重症肝炎病人血浆ＶｉｔＥ及Ｌｐｏ水平及其动态变化。急性肝炎和重症肝炎病人血浆ＶｉｔＥ低于对照组，Ｌｐｏ高于对照组，均以重症肝炎更明显，且死亡病例血浆ＶｉｔＥ低于存活者。部份病人口服ＶｉｔＥ不能提高其血浆水平，并随病情加重而逐渐降低。讨论了病毒性肝炎病人血浆ＶｉｔＥ降低与Ｌｐｏ升高的关系及其临床意义，认为动态观测血浆ＶｉｔＥ可作为判断重症肝炎病情进展及预后的参考。     

A critical assessment of allergen component-based in vitro diagnosis in cherry allergy across Europe

BACKGROUND: Food allergy to cherry occurs throughout Europe, typically with restricted oral reactions in the central and northern parts but with frequent systemic reactions in the Mediterranean region. Previous studies have demonstrated insufficient sensitivity of commercially available cherry extract reagents in the diagnosis of cherry allergy. OBJECTIVE: To assess the diagnostic performance of specific IgE tests based on recombinant cherry allergens in comparison with an extract-based assay and to skin prick test (SPT). A secondary objective was to analyse the frequency of systemic reactions in cherry-allergic subjects across Europe, including the largest population of LTP-sensitized subjects from central Europe studied to date. METHODS: A total of 186 subjects from central Europe and Spain were studied. Serum IgE was analysed with ImmunoCAP tests carrying rPru av 1, 3 and 4, combined and separately, and cherry extract. RESULTS: Among the central European cherry allergics, the mix of rPru av 1, 3 and 4 had a sensitivity of 95%, compared with 65% for cherry extract, and the IgE binding capacity of the recombinant mix was considerably higher. The sensitivity of the two tests was more comparable in the Spanish population, 95% and 86%, respectively. The recombinant allergen ImmunoCAP equalled SPT in terms of sensitivity and specificity. Consistent with previous reports, major geographic differences in sensitization pattern and prevalence of systemic reactions were found. A significantly higher rate of systemic reactions was found in Spanish patients sensitized to Pru av 3 whereas German patients sensitized to LTP only had oral allergy syndrome. CONCLUSIONS: The recombinant cherry allergen ImmunoCAP is a highly sensitive diagnostic tool, clearly superior to any diagnostic method based on cherry extract. Three cherry allergens are sufficient for detecting sensitization in 95% of cherry-allergic subjects. Systemic reactions are common in LTP-sensitized individuals but seem to require at least one additional causative factor.     

高脂血清对人内皮细胞前列环素、脂质过氧化物的影响及维生素E的保护作用

实验比较了高脂兔血清（ＨＲＳ）和正常兔血清（ＮＲＳ）对培养的人脐静脉内皮细胞（ＥＣ）脂质过氧化物（ＬＰＯ）的形成和ＥＣ利用外源性花生四烯酸（ＡＡ）合成前列环素（ＰＧＩ２）能力的影响；同时观察了抗氧化剂ＶｉｔＥ对ＥＣ的保护作用。结果表明，ＨＲＳ对ＥＣ合成ＰＧＩ２的影响有一时间和浓度相关的反应过程。用ＨＲＳ孵育培养呈融合状的ＥＣ，在４８ｈ前刺激ＰＧＩ２的产生，４８ｈ达最高值，然后急骤下降；而ＬＰＯ含量随着孵育时间的延长呈直线上升（ｒ＝０．９８７）。随着ＨＲＳ浓度的增加，ＬＰＯ含量逐渐升高，ＥＣ合成ＰＧＩ２能力呈下降趋势。ＶｉｔＥ可阻止ＨＲＳ引起的ＥＣ中ＬＰＯ含量的增加和ＰＧＩ２合成能力的下降。

实验性糖尿病大鼠肾脏损害和脂质过氧化物水平的动态研究

动态观察实验性糖尿病大鼠于发病后２、４、６、１２、和１６周肾脏损害指标和肾脏脂质过氧化物（ＬＰＯ）水平的变化。结果表明，发病后各观察时间．或糖尿病大鼠２４ｈ尿Ａｌｂ、β２──ＭＧ排泄量和尿ＮＡＧ活性均明显增高，而２４ｈ尿ＴＨＰ排泄量显著降低，肾脏ＬＰＯ水平明显升高。其中尿ＮＡＧ活性、ＴＨＰ排泄量和肾脏ＬＰＯ水平均随病程延长而更趋明显。这些结果提示，在糖尿病早期除有肾小球功能损害外，肾小管也明显受损，过氧化损伤在糖尿病肾病发病中可能是重要因素之一。尿Ａｌｂ、β２──ＭＧ、ＴＨＰ含量和ＮＡＧ活性可作为糖尿病肾病早期肾损害的敏感指标。

Fast decomposition of water and lipid using a GRASE technique with the IDEAL algorithm.

Three-point Dixon techniques achieve good lipid-water separation by estimating the phase due to field inhomogeneities. Recently it was demonstrated that the combination of an iterative algorithm (iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares estimation (IDEAL)) with a fast spin-echo (FSE) three-point Dixon method yielded robust lipid-water decomposition. As an alternative to FSE, the gradient- and spin-echo (GRASE) technique has been developed for efficient data collection. In this work we present a method for lipid-water separation by combining IDEAL with the GRASE technique. An approach to correct for errors in the lipid-water decomposition caused by phase distortions due to the switching of the readout gradient polarities inherent to GRASE is presented. The IDEAL-GRASE technique is demonstrated in phantoms and in vivo for various applications, including pelvic, musculoskeletal, and (breath-hold) cardiac imaging.     

Adiabatic refocusing pulses for volume selection in magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging.

Because of their excellent slice profiles and high immunity to RF inhomogeneity, adiabatic full passage (AFP) pulses are ideal for use in spatial localization. The nonlinear, position-dependent phase of a single AFP pulse generated during refocusing of transverse magnetization traditionally is eliminated by using identical pairs of AFP pulses, at the expense of increased RF power deposition and increased echo time (TE). Here it is shown that one can achieve significant phase refocusing by executing single AFP pulses along non-equivalent spatial axes. When used for volume selection in MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) the remaining nonlinear phase becomes inconsequential when the phase across a spectroscopic volume is small. Selection of rectangular and octagonal volumes is demonstrated with half the number of AFP pulses used in the traditional approach. It is shown that octagonal volume selection in the human brain provides excellent suppression of extracranial lipids, and thus allows multislice (1)H MRSI at 4 Tesla to be performed within the guidelines for RF power deposition.
