氟伐他汀对环孢素A所致大鼠成纤维细胞肾毒性的保护作用

目的 观察免疫抑制剂环孢素Ａ（CsA）对大鼠肾脏成纤维细胞增殖及细胞因子表达的影响以及氟伐他汀的干预作用，探讨氟伐他汀对CsA肾毒性的保护作用。 方法 体外培养大鼠肾脏成纤维细胞，四甲基偶氮唑盐（MTT）比色法测定CsA及氟伐他汀对细胞增殖的影响。RT-PCR方法检测转化生长因子β1（TGF-β1）、结缔组织生长因子（CTGF）及c-fos mRNA水平。Western印迹检测纤连蛋白(FN)的表达。 结果 CsA可明显抑制成纤维细胞增殖，且呈剂量和时间依赖效应（P < 0.05）。氟伐他汀与CsA合用后，对细胞增殖有明显的抑制作用（P < 0.01）。CsA刺激成纤维细胞TGF-β1、CTGF、c-fos及FN的产生（P < 0.05），氟伐他汀可下调这些改变（P < 0.05）。 结论 氟伐他汀可减轻CsA所致的大鼠肾脏成纤维细胞毒性     

Conservation of the chromatophore pigment response

Toxicant sensing technology has evolved to include biological sensors, such as cell‐based biosensors, which rely on viable cells to convey a measurable physiological signal. Chromatophores are a class of pigment cells that have been investigated as cell‐based biosensors. We report the characterization of Oncorhynchus tshawytscha melanophores and describe the melanophore pigment response to neurotransmitters in terms of pigment area occupied. Compared with the previously described model, Betta splendens erythrophores, O. tshawytscha melanophores responded similarly, indicating that pigment responses are biologically conserved between these two species. Additionally, melanophores responded to mercuric chloride and sodium arsenite, similar to B. splendens erythrophores, suggesting that melanophores can be used as detectors for environmental toxicants. This report highlights the potential of O. tshawytscha melanophores to be used as cell‐based biosensors to address environmental toxicity, and warrants a continued investigation to strengthen this technology and its applications.     

老年人免疫功能异常变化的临床观察及其评价(Ⅰ)

老年人生理适应与防卫能力进行性下降,对有害因子易伤性增加,导致多种老年病的发生。因此,免疫系统功能与衰老的关系问题,已是现代老年病学和免疫学进行多方深入研究的重要内容。我们近两年多来对老年人免疫功能变化做了临床观察检测与统计分析。现报告如下。 1.临床资料     

Morphometrically estimated variation in nuclear size

Summary At present there are several grading systems for prostatic carcinoma. Most are difficult to reproduce. An objective method of grading seems to be necessary and could make comparisons between various groups of patients easier and grading more reliable.In the present study morphometrically estimated nuclear size and variation in nuclear size are matched with the survival rates of 207 patients who underwent total perineal prostatetomy for cancer. On the basis of morphometrically estimated variation in nuclear size the patients could be divided into two groups with significantly differing survival rates. In this way it was possible to split the group of patients with grade 2 carcinoma (Mostofi's grading system) into two groups of patients with significantly different survival rates. The survival rates in these two groups did not differ significantly from those in the patients with Grade 1 and Grade 3 tumors respectively.The results are discussed in the light of the recent literature on the subject. Morphometry seems to be a valuable tool in grading prostatic cancer.     

检测胞浆抗原用于急性白血病免疫分型

目的:探讨胞浆抗原在急性白血病免疫分型中的临床意义。方法:用流式细胞仪检测42例初治急性白血病患者胞浆抗原CyCD_3,CyCD_(22),CyCD_(79a)和MPO。结果:T—ALL阳性胞浆抗原主要表达在CyCD_3,阳性率占88.9％。B—ALL阳性胞浆抗原主要表达在CyCD_(79a),AML主要表达CyMPO。结论:CyCD_3和CyCD_(79a),及MPO可分别作为T—ALL,B—ALL和AML系列特异性标志,对正确诊断白血病提供非常有价值的依据。

天麻素对缺血再灌注神经细胞膜的保护作用

用新生Wistar大鼠大脑皮层进行神经细胞培养 ,将培养 8d的神经细胞置于模拟“缺血”状态下 ,5h后神经细胞发生肿胀 ,胞内乳酸脱氢酶 (LDH)漏出增加 ,膜流动性下降、脂质过氧化(LPO)含量增加 ;将经过“缺血”损伤神经细胞置 1 8h模拟“再灌注” ,“再灌注”后细胞数目明显减少 ,LDH的漏出、膜流动性下降和LPO增加继续加重 ,说明细胞损伤进一步加重。经过天麻素孵育后的神经细胞“缺血”或“再灌注”后LDH的漏出及LPO含量明显低于损伤组 ,而膜流动性则明显高于损伤组。表明 :天麻素对体外培养神经细胞的缺血再灌注损伤有保护作用

Cholinesterases and peanut agglutinin binding related to cell proliferation and axonal growth in embryonic chick limbs

Embryonic cholinesterases are assigned important functions during morphogenesis. Here we describe the expression of butyrylcholinesterase and acetylcholinesterase, and the binding of peanut agglutinin, and relate the results to mitotic activity in chick wing and leg buds from embryonic day 4 to embryonic day 9. During early stages, butyrylcholinesterase is elevated in cells under the apical ectodermal ridge and around invading motoraxons, while acetylcholinesterase is found in the chondrogenic core, on motoraxons and along the ectoderm. Peanut agglutinin binds to the apical ectodermal ridge and most prominently to the chondrogenic core. Measurements of thymidine incorporation and enzyme activities were consistent with our histological findings. Butyrylcholinesterase is concentrated near proliferative zones and periods, while acetylcholinesterase is associated with low proliferative activity. At late stages of limb development, acetylcholinesterase is concentrated in muscles and nonexistent within bones, while butyrylcholinesterase shows an inverse pattern. Thus, as in other systems, in limb formation butyrylcholinesterase is a transmitotic marker preceding differentiation, acetylcholinesterase is found on navigating axons, while peanut agglutinin appears in non-invaded regions. These data suggest roles for cholinesterases as positive regulators and peanut-agglutinin-binding proteins as negative regulators of neural differentiation.
