急性心肌梗塞患者血清唾液酸含量测定

本文测定了５０例正常人，３２例急性心肌梗塞，５４例冠心病无梗塞者血清ＳＡ水平，结果表明，急性心肌梗塞组血清ＳＡ水平与冠心病无梗塞组及正常人相比，具显著性差异，可能与心肌梗塞造成心肌细胞受损所致使细胞表面成份释放入血有关，所以血清ＳＡ测定可提供一新的心肌梗塞诊断依据。     

冠心病中血糖与血清微量元素间的关系分析

对７５例冠心病患者依血糖水平分两组，进行１２种血清微量元素测定，旨在探讨微量元素与冠心病及糖尿病间的相互关系。结果发现锌、铬、锰、硒、钴元素高血糖组较对照组血清水平为低，呈非常显著差异（Ｐ＜０．０ｌ）；铜、镍元素增高，差异显著（Ｐ＜０．０５）；而锶、铁、砷、铅、铝元素两组间无显著差异（Ｐ＞０．１）。表明部分微量元素与冠心病及血糖间存在着密切联系。     

吡哌酸锌对小鼠烫伤感染的体表保护作用

目的观察吡哌酸锌软膏对烫伤后常见的感染菌绿脓肝菌、金黄色葡萄球菌的保护作用，并与阳性对照药磺胺嘧啶银霜、磺胺嘧啶锌软膏进行对比。方法取18～22克小鼠，在麻醉下将其尾部造成烫伤，然后再分别将其尾部没入绿脓肝菌和金黄色葡萄球菌液内，使其感染，尾部套上塑料管，将不同浓度的吡哌酸锌，磺胺嘧啶锌软膏及磺胺嘧啶银霜注入管内，封闭，连续观察14d内小鼠死亡现象拼进行显著性检验；结果综合计算法计算各药ED50为：（1）金黄色葡萄球菌，吡哌酸锌软膏ED50=69．84±18．27mg·kg－1，磺胺嘧啶银霜ED50=73．49±19．98mg·kg。（2）绿脓杆菌，吡哌酸锌软ED50=58．16±15.22mg·kg－1，磺胺嘧啶银霜ED50=80．1±2.24mg·kg－1。磺胺嘧啶锌软膏浓度低于0．4％即有明显抗菌作用。结论吡哌酸锋软膏、磺胺嘧啶银霜、磺胺嘧啶软膏均有明显抗菌作用，前两者相比没有显著差异，但吡哌酸锌软膏的抗菌作用比磺胺胺嘧啶锌强。     

Effect of haemodialysis on serum levels of tumour markers in patients with end-stage renal failure

SUMMARY: We studied the effect of haemodialysis on the serum levels of tumour markers in 78 patients, 49 men and 29 women with a mean age of 61 ± 2 years, who had been undergoing haemodialysis for 39 ± 10 months. No patient had any clinical evidence of malignancy. Serum values of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), squamous-cell-carcinoma-related antigen (SCC), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), tissue polypeptide antigen (TPA), CA 15-3, CA 19–9, and among males prostate-specific antigen (PSA) were determined before and after dialysis. Postdialysis values, after being corrected for haemoconcentration, were compared with predialysis values. A significant increase of 32% was observed in NSE levels ( P <0.001) and of 21% in CA 15-3 ( P <0.001) after haemodialysis. A lesser, but still statistically significant, increase (8-12%) was observed in SCC, AFP and CEA levels ( P <0.05), while the values of the remaining three markers remained unchanged. In conclusion, an increase in some tumour markers was found in our patients after dialysis, a finding which requires further investigation.

Presence of a metallothionein-like protein in the bovine pineal gland

Summary The high concentration of zinc in the bovine pineal gland prompted us to investigate the existence of a zinc-binding protein in this organ. In this study, we report that the subcellular distribution of zinc in the bovine pineal gland is nonuniform, with the crude nuclear, mitochondrial, microsomal, and supernatant fractions having 0.264±0.038, 0.160±0.019, 0.130±0.016, and 0.287±0.010 g zinc/mg protein, respectively. Furthermore, gel filtration studies using Sephadex G-75 and a 105,000 g supernatant fraction revealed two zinc binding protein peaks that bind 1.7 and 3.7 g Zn⁺⁺/mg protein, respectively. Furthermore, purification of the protein peak with an elution volume (ve/vo) of 2.06 on anion exchange chromatography (DEAE-A 25) yielded a single protein peak which binds 10 g zinc/mg protein. The comparative high performance liquid Chromatographic (HPLC) profiles of the zinc-induced hepatic metallothionein isoform I (retention time=17.39 min) and of the bovine pineal metallothionein-like protein isoform I (retention time=17.49 min) are similar. Since zinc is a potent inhibitor of sulfhydryl-containing enzymes and receptor sites, we investigated the effects of zinc and found that it inhibited the binding of [³H]glutamate (IC 50=80 M) and of [³H]spiroperidol (IC 50=0.6 mM) to the pineal membranes. The results of these studies are interpreted to indicate that the bovine pineal gland possesses an active and dynamic zinc homeostatic mechanism, whose precise function(s) remain(s) to be delineated.     

Fresh gas flow in the Bain circuit during laparoscopy

Twenty-two women were studied during laparoscopy with abdominal insufflation of carbon dioxide. A bain anaesthetic breathing circuit was used with a fresh gas flow (VFG) of 110 ml.min-1.kg-1, and controlled ventilation was applied with a minute ventilation (VE) of 175 ml.min-1.kg-1. Arterial blood gases were analysed at the end of the operation. Nineteen of the women (86 per cent) were found to have a PaCO2 within the range for normocapnia (i.e., 4.7-5.9 kPa (35-45 mmHg), two were hypocapnic with a PaCO2 of 4.4 and 4.5 kPa (33 and 34 mmHg) respectively and one was found to have a PaCO2 of 6.2 kPa (46.5 mmHg). It was concluded that the carbon dioxide absorbed from the abdomen during laparoscopy demands fresh gas flows that are higher than normally used in the Bain circuit if a PaCO2 within the normal range is to be obtained. A simultaneous increase in VFG and VE of about 45 per cent is sufficient to achieve normocapnia.     

A Comparison of the Cholinergic Activity of Selected H2-Antagonists and Sulfoxide Metabolites

Famotidine and selected H₂-antagonists were evaluated with respect to toxicity and selected pharmacological activities. When administered intraperitoneally to mice at a dose equivalent to 10 times their respective H₂-antagonist ED₅₀ values, no deaths were observed. Similarly, no alteration in brain ACh concentrations or overt pharmacological effects were noted. However, at 400 mg/kg, ranitidine produced 89% lethality, followed by cimetidine (11%) and famotidine. Only cimetidine and famotidine at this dose significantly elevated brain acetylcholine levels. These results do not correlate with the in vitro data, where ORF-17578 and ranitidine were the most potent entities with respect to acetylcholinesterase inhibition (1–2 × 10^–6 M), followed by nizatidine > cimetidine > famotidine. The sulfoxide metabolites of ranitidine and cimetidine were approximately one-tenth as potent as their parent compounds with respect to inhibition of acetylcholinesterase. Direct muscarinic stimulation or potentiation of acetylcholine-induced contraction in ileal tissue was not observed for any of the H₂-antagonists.
