Quantitative autoradiography of 5-HT1D and 5-HT1E binding sites labelled by [H]5-HT, in frontal cortex and the hippocampal region of the human brain

In human cortex and hippocampus area, [³H]5-HT (5 nM) labels 5-HT_1A, 5-HT_1D and 5-HT_1E sites. After masking 5-HT_1A receptors by 0.1 μM 8-OH-DPAT, the binding displaced by 0.1 μM 5-CT presumably represented 5-HT_1D sites and the remaining binding 5-HT_1E sites. In frontal cortex, 5-HT_1A receptors represented the main binding in layers II and VI and a lower fraction on other layers. 5-HT_1D and 5-HT_1E sites, were more homogeneously distributed in layers II to VI (21–34% of specific [³H]5-HT binding). 5-HT_1E sites were of similar affinities (K_D close to 6–8 nM) in the cortical layers II to VI. In CA1 field of hippocampus, (pyramidal layer, stratum radiatum, molecular layer), CA2 and dentate gyrus, 5-HT_1A receptors represented the major fraction, 5-HT_1D sites a significant fraction and 5-HT_1E a minor fraction of the specific [³H]5-HT binding. In CA3–CA4 fields, 5-HT_1A receptors were less densely present, 5-HT_1D sites were predominant and 5-HT_1E sites represented a significant fraction (27%). The highest densities of 5-HT_1E sites have been measured in subiculum, where 5-HT_1A, 5-HT_1D, and 5-HT_1E binding sites were equally represented and in entorhinal cortex where 5-HT_1E sites represented the major binding in layer III. They were also present in layers II and IV (29 and 24%) and, to a lesser extent, in layers V and VI. 5-HT_1A sites were predominant in layer VI, II and V and were less abundant in other layers. 5-HT_1D were homogeneously present in layers II, III, IV and were present in low amounts in other layers. No 5-HT_1E were detected in choroid plexus, where [³H]5-HT was dramatically reduced by mesulergine (5-HT_2C receptors). No significant displacement of [³H]5-HT by mesulergine was measured in other structures.     

胃癌患者胃液中5-羟色胺含量的检测及临床意义

本文应用高效液相色谱与荧光分光光度计联机法检测55例胃液内5-羟色胺的含量,共分为正常、溃疡病、萎缩性胃炎、胃癌等4个组。其结果正常组含量为48.70±49.3ng/ml,溃疡病组含量为76.26±127.06ng/ml,慢性萎缩性胃炎组含量为197.29±128.4ng/ml,胃癌组含量为191.80±124.2ng/ml。4组之间进行对比分析,正常组和溃疡病组之间差异不明显(P>0.05),而萎缩性胃炎和胃癌两组与前两组之间差异均显著(P<0.01),但萎缩性胃炎和胃癌之间未见差异(P>0.05)。这充分证明5-羟色胺(5-HT)在萎缩性胃炎和胃癌的胃液中含量是很高的。对于胃癌和慢性萎缩性胃炎的诊断及与其它慢性胃病的鉴别诊断中可能起到很重要的作用。

Abnormalities in immune regulation precede the development of multiple myeloma.

Immunosuppression of immunoglobulin synthesis seen in patients with multiple myeloma is in part due to immunosuppressive CD5 positive B cells. In a 13 year longitudinal study of an IgA-deficient blood donor who developed multiple myeloma, the presence of immunosuppressive CD5 positive B cells and T cells preceded the diagnosis of overt multiple myeloma and the appearance of immunosuppressive monocytes. These data argue that certain immune defects may be involved in the development of myeloma and are not simply a consequence of overt malignancy.     

Triploid origin of the gibel carp as revealed by 5S rDNA localization and chromosome painting

5S ribosomal DNA (rDNA) was isolated and sequenced from the gibel carp Carassius auratus gibelio with 162 chromosomes and crucian carp Carassius auratus with 100 chromosomes, and fluorescent probes for chromosome localization were prepared to ascertain the ploidy origin and evolutionary relationship between the two species. Using fluorescence in-situ hybridization (FISH), major 5S rDNA signals were localized to the short arms of three subtelocentric chromosomes in the gibel carp and to the short arms of two subtelocentrics in the crucian carp. In addition, some minor signals were detected on other chromosomes of both species. Simultaneously, six chromosomes were microdissected from the gibel carp metaphase spreads using glass needles, and the isolated chromosomes were amplified in vitro by degenerate oligonucleotide primed-polymerase chain reaction (DOP-PCR). Significantly, when the DOP-PCR-generated probes prepared from each single chromosome were hybridized, three same-sized chromosomes were painted in each gibel carp metaphase, whereas only two painted chromosomes were observed in each crucian carp metaphase spread. The data indicate that gibel carp is of triploid origin in comparison with diploid crucian carp.     

2,4-二氨基-5-取代苯胺基嘧啶类化合物的合成及抗菌活性

在嘧啶类化合物中,以2,4-二氨基嘧啶类化合物对二氢叶酸还原酶的抑制作用较强。甲氧苄胺嘧啶(TMP)已作为磺胺类药物及某些抗生素的抗菌增效剂广泛用于临床。为了寻找抑酶活性或对细菌选择性抑制作用比TMP更强的化合物,对2,4-二氨基-5-取代苄基嘧啶类的苯环上取代基的改造已做了大量的工作;对这类化合物抑酶活性的构效关系也进行了较多的研究。但对这类化合物中嘧啶环与苯环间的桥键次甲基的改造则报道不多。为了     

Effect of ACTH,adrenalectomy and the combination treatment on the density of 5-HT2 receptor binding sites in neocortex of rat forebrain and 5-HT2 receptor-mediated wet-dog shake behaviors

The effect of ACTH and/or adrenalectomy on serotonin (5-HT)₂ receptor binding sites was evaluated in the neocortex of rat forebrain. One day after the adrenalectomy or sham operation, ACTH (50 µg/day) was injected subcutaneously into adult male SD rats for 10 consecutive days. Saturation analysis showed that subchronic ACTH treatment significantly increased the B_max values for³H-ketanserin binding without any change in the K_d values. Moreover, this ACTH-induced increase in the B_max values was prevented by adrenalectomy. The concentrations of 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5-HIAA) measured by HPLC-ECD were not altered by these manipulations. Ten-day administration of corticosterone (20 and 50 mg/kg) also increased 5-HT₂ receptor density in the neocortex of rat forebrain. 5-HT₂ (and 5-HT_1C) receptor agonist, (±)DOI-induced wet-dog shakes in ACTH and/or adrenalectomy-treated rats were also examined. Ten-day administration of ACTH enhanced (±)DOI-induced wet-dog shakes and this increase was prevented by adrenalectomy. These results indicate that subchronic adrenocorticotropinadrenal axis activation of rats increases both the number of 5-HT₂ receptors in neocortex of forebrain and the wet-dog shake responses induced by (±)DOI.     

Time-dependent changes in sensitivity to apomorphine and monoamine receptors following withdrawal from continuous cocaine administration in rats

The effects of withdrawal from continuous administration of cocaine on behavioral sensitivity to apomorphine and monoamine receptor density were examined in rats. Subdermal minipumps that delivered either saline or 20 mg/kg/day cocaine hydrochloride were implanted for 2 weeks. Apomorphine-induced stereotypy (0.5 mg/kg, SC) was examined in separate groups of rats either 4 hr or 7, 28, or 60 days after removal of the minipumps. Transient enhanced sensitivity to apomorphine-induced stereotypy occurred during the course of withdrawal. Animals withdrawn from cocaine for 4 hours did not differ from controls in their sensitivity to apomorphine, whereas animals withdrawn from cocaine for 7 days exhibited an increase in apomorphine-induced oral stereotypy relative to controls. However, the enhanced stereotypy response was no longer evident in animals withdrawn for 28–60 days. The animals were sacrificed after behavioral testing, and their brains were assayed for changes in monoamine receptor density in the frontal cortex, caudate-putamen, and nucleus accumbens. The density of ³H-SCH-23390-labeled D1 receptors was altered in all three regions examined in a time-dependent manner that paralleled the changes in behavioral sensitivity to apomorphine. There was a transient decrease in D1 receptor density that was evident by 7 days following withdrawal from continuous cocaine administration and was no longer evident 28 or 60 days posttreatment. There were no changes in ³H-spiroperidol-labeled D2 receptors, ¹²⁵-pindolol-labeled β-adrenergic receptors, or ³H-ketanserin-labeled 5-HT₂ receptors in any of the regions examined at both 4 hr and 7 days after termination of the cocaine infusion. These findings are discussed in terms of their relevance to developing pharmacologic treatments for withdrawal from cocaine. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
