E838等抗放药对放射损伤防治作用的比较

目的；比较研究E838，WR－2721，盐酸胱胺和炔雌醇等对放射损伤的防治作用及其相互之间的协同作用关系。方法：采用小鼠腹腔注射或灌胃的方法在致伤前或／和致伤后按常用量给药，观察30d存活率，死亡动物平活日和保护系数K的差异。结果：（1）致伤前预防给药，上述4种药物均明显提高了放射损伤的存活率，并延长了死亡动物的平均存活日，其中以E838和WR2721效果最佳；（2）致伤后给药则仅E838和茜草显示了治疗效果；（3）联合用药实验显示所研究的5种配伍用药方式均有较好的防治效果，但以WR2721（防）＋E838（治）效果最好。结论：E838和WR2721与其它抗放药相比具有较理想的辐射防护作用，且E838还有一定的治疗作用,两者合理配伍使用可发挥协同的作用效果。

p14ARF、E2F-1与肺癌

p14ARF基因和核转录因子E2F-1在细胞周期调控，细胞凋亡和肿瘤发生中具有重要作用。近年来，有研究表明p14ARF在肺癌中的表达率低于正常组织，E2F-1的表达率高于正常组织。本文将就p14ARF、E2F-1与肺癌的关系进行综述。

Color Stability of Dry Earth Pigmented Maxillofacial Silicone A-2186 Subjected to Microwave Energy Exposure

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to measure spectrophotometrically the color stability of pigmented A-2186 silicone maxillofacial elastomer with 10% by volume of titanium white dry earth opacifier before and after exposure to microwave energy over a simulated 1.5-year period of microwave sterilization. Materials AND METHODS: A-2186 silicone elastomer opacified with titanium white dry earth pigment, pigmented with 5 cosmetic dry earth pigment colors [no pigment (control) group (Pc), red (Pr), yellow ochre (Py), burnt sienna (Po), and a mixture of Pr + Py + Po color group (P3)], was used in this study. Each of the 5 experimental groups consisted of 5 specimens. All specimens were placed in a 250 ml glass beaker filled with 150 ml of water (replenished for each microwave exposure). An exposure of 6 minutes was used 18 times (simulating 1.5 years of microwave sterilization with one 6 minute exposure monthly). Reflectance values were measured by spectrophotometer. Three- and two-way analyses of variance with repeated measures were performed for the color difference (DeltaE*) with the factors of group/color/months, and group/months, respectively. Means were compared by Tukey Honest Significant Difference (HSD) multiple range test calculated at the 0.05 level of significance using SPSS. RESULTS: The trained human eye can detect color changes (DeltaE*) greater than 1.0. Most DeltaE* values of the red pigment group at all intervals and the mixed pigment group at 15- and 18- month intervals increased significantly greater than 1.0 (p < 0.001) compared with the control group. Yellow and burnt sienna groups remained the most color stable over time with DeltaE* values below 0.35. CONCLUSIONS: Lack of color stability of red dry earth pigmented A-2186 silicone maxillofacial elastomers was clinically significant after 12-month exposure to microwave energy as compared with yellow, burnt sienna, and opacified A-2186 dry earth pigments.     

Scanning Electron Microscopic Observations on the Epithelium of the Human Prostatic Urethra

The human prostatic urethra has been investigated by means of scanning electron microscopy. On the posterior wall of the urethra, the seminal colliculus with the orifices of the ejaculatory ducts is clearly detectable. The upper portion of the prostatic urethra shows a typical transitional epithelium with large superficial cells of a ruffled appearance. In the lower portion of the organ (underneath the openings of the ejaculatory ducts), the apical pattern of the cells varies considerably. Four main aspects are recognizable: apices provided with microvilli, dome-shaped apices with an almost smooth surface, large apices with labyrinthic microplicae and ciliated apices. Also, apices showing intermediate characteristics can be noted. The functional significance of the morphological patterns as well as the possibility of a transition among the various types of surface structures are discussed.     

Necrotizing myopathy with paracrystalline inclusion bodies in hypervitaminosis E

Summary A necrotizing, nonprogressive myopathy with unusual paracrystalline inclusion bodies is described in a patient who underwent long-term treatment with megadoses of vitamin E. The clinical course and morphological findings suggest a close relationship to the administration of the vitamin. The theoretical pathogenesis of muscle damage and the possible origin of paracrystalline inclusion bodies are discussed.Presented at the Jahrestagung der österreichischen Gesellschaft für Neuropathologie in Bad Ischl, on April 17, 1986This study was supported by a grant from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (Ba 916)
