-Hydroperoxy diethyl peroxide, an unusual natural compound isolated from an ascidian (Phallusia mammillata): acute toxicity in DDY mice

-Hydroperoxy diethyl peroxide, a novel compound found in the tunic of ascidians, has two peroxide moieties per molecule. Since ascidians are a widely served food item in Japan, human exposure to this compound potentially exists in the seafood preparation industries. No toxicological data have so far been published on this compound, and so we determined the intraperitoneal 6-day LD₅₀ in mice and conducted histopathological examinations. The 6-day LD₅₀, was found to be 199 mg/kg with 95% confidence limits of 126–314 mg/kg. Histopathological examination revealed necrosis induced in a variety of cells that had been directly exposed to the compound. These cells included hepatocytes, parenchymal pancreatic cells and fat cells. It is concluded that direct contact with this compound is likely to elicit cellular necrosis of various organs. The specific toxicological effects are probably dependent on the route of exposure.

K562／ADM耐药细胞株的建立及其生物学特性的初步观察

我们建立的K562/ADM耐药细胞株,在ADM浓度为2.4μg/m1(4.46μM)中已稳定培养3.5个月,传了30—35代,K562/ADM亦具有多药耐受件(Multidrug Resistance,MDR)的特点,对ADM、VCR、AT—1258和DDP的耐受性分别为K562的114.7、94.0、13.3和7.4倍,但对5—FU不产生交叉耐药。K562和K562/ADM的倍增时间分别为19.2h和52.8h,集落生成率分别为37.5％和11.1％,K562染色体数为34—68,中位数为56;K562/MDM染色体数为32—90,中位数为50,K562/ADM可做为耐药机理和克服耐药措施研究的极好模型。     

The monoclonal antibody Alz-50, used to reveal cytoskeletal changes in Alzheimer's disease, also reacts with a large subpopulation of somatostatin neurons in the normal human hypothalamus and adjoining areas

The monoclonal antibody Alz-50 is directed against Alzheimer's disease-related modified tau proteins and reveals cytoskeletal changes, i.e. neurofibrillary tangles and dystrophic neurites. The present study shows that, in the hypothalamus of non-demented control subjects, this same antibody gives a distinctive staining pattern of a subpopulation of somatostatin neurons and beaded fibers. Furthermore, Alz-50 occasionally recognizes somatostatin-containing cell bodies and dystrophic neurite-like fibers in the (neuritic) senile plaques of AD patients. These observations have direct consequences for the interpretation of Alz-50 staining in diagnostic usage and for the assessment of Alzheimer's disease-like changes induced by β-amyloid in experimental animal brains. On dot spotting, Alz-50 was found to bind to a number of fragments from the somatostatin precursor, of which somatostatin_15–28 stained best. Preadsorption of Alz-50 by somatostatin_15–28, as well as other specificity tests, failed, however, to provide any clue to the nature of the unknown compound(s) stained in the control hypothalamus.     

Infection dynamics and virus-induced apoptosis in cell culture-based influenza vaccine production—Flow cytometry and mathematical modeling

Cell culture-based influenza vaccine manufacturing is of growing importance. Depending on virus strains, differences in infection dynamics, virus-induced apoptosis, cell lysis and virus yields are observed. Comparatively little is known concerning details of virus–host cell interaction on a cellular level and virus spreading in a population of cells in bioreactors. In this study, the infection of MDCK cells with different influenza A virus strains in lab-scale microcarrier culture was investigated by flow cytometry. Together with the infection status of cells, virus-induced apoptosis was monitored. A mathematical model has been formulated to describe changes in the concentration of uninfected and infected adherent cells, dynamics of virus particle release (infectious virions, hemagglutinin content), and the time course of the percentage composition of the cell population.     

原发性肝细胞癌患者血清AFP,CEA和CA50的研究

为研究原发性肝细胞癌(PHC)血清一些肿瘤标志的变化及临床意义,本文用放射免疫法测定PHC31例,非胰岛素依赖性糖尿病(NIDDM)24例患者血清甲胎蛋白(AFP)、癌胚抗原(CEA)和糖类抗原50(CA50)含量,并以23例正常人作对照,同时测定一些相关指标。PHC肿瘤大小用B超确定,个别患者用CT确定。结果PHC患者血清AFP(332.8±126.11对10.75±5.47ng/L),CA50(42.85±19.28对20.94±6.20U/ml),均明显高于正常对照(P<0.01),AFP升高与CA50呈正相关,而AFP和CA50含量与PHC的肿瘤大小也呈正相关(P<0.05),但与Child分级无关(P>0.05)。AFP阳性例数29例,敏感性93％,特异性87％,正确性88％。CA50阳性18例分别为58％、78％和76％。NIDDM患者仅CA50升高(25.22±5.16U/ml,P<0.05),且与血糖浓度(11.65±1.94mmol/L)无关(P>0.05)。研究提示联合测定血清AFP、CA50对诊断PHC是敏感、特异而正确的。
