Haemophilia A and haemophilia B: molecular insights

This review focuses on selected areas that should interest both the scientist and the clinician alike: polymorphisms within the factor VIII and factor IX genes, their linkage, and their ethnic variation; a general assessment of mutations within both genes and a detailed inspection of the molecular pathology of certain mutations to illustrate the diverse cause–effect relations that exist; a summary of current knowledge on molecular aspects of inhibitor production; and an introduction to the new areas of factor VIII and factor IX catabolism. An appendix defining various terms encountered in the molecular genetics of the haemophilias is included, together with an appendix providing accession numbers and locus identification links for accessing gene and sequence information in the international nucleic acid databases.     

石杉碱甲和乙促进小鼠的空间辨别学习和记忆

石杉碱甲和乙是从石杉科石杉属植物蛇足石杉[Huperzia scrrata(Thunb.)Trev.]中分得的二个新生物碱。“Y”迷宫实验表明,ip Hup-A 0.075～0.125 mg/kg或Hup-B 0.4～0.8mg/kg,均能明显促进小鼠的空间辨别学习,并能显著预防CO₂产生的短时识别障碍,促进记忆保持和记忆再现。ig Hup-A 0.1～0.3 mg/kg或Hup-B 0.8 mg/kg也有促进学习的作用。促进作用Hup-A>Phys>Hup-B。剂量与效应曲线呈倒U型。     

激活素A对人肝星状细胞系LI 90细胞增殖的影响

目的：检测激活素（ACT）A对肝星状细胞（HSC）系LI90细胞增殖的影响。方法：采用基因重组人ACT A（0．025－250ng/ml）、转化生长因子－β1（TGF－β1）、镦泡抑素（FS）处理体外培养的人HSC系LI90，采用四唑盐比色法（MTT法）检测其对细胞增殖的影响。结果：ACT A浓度在0.025-250ng/ml范围内，均可刺激LI90细胞增殖，0.025-25ng/ml浓度范围内的ACT A作用轻微，而250ng/ml的ACT A作用明显增强（P＜0．01）；相反，TGF－β1（2．5ng/ml）对LI90细胞增殖无明显影响；0．315ng/ml FS与浓度为0.25ng/ml的ACT A共同孵育可阻断ACT A促进LI90增殖的活性（P＜0．05），而0．315ng/ml FS单独作用对LI 90细胞生长明显影响。结论：ACT可促进HSC增殖，在肝纤维化发病机制中发挥重要作用。     

环孢菌素A和1,2 5(OH)2D3防治实验性自身免疫性甲状腺炎的研究

将猪的甲状腺球蛋白（pTG)100μg/只分别于第0d,第14d皮下注入CBA小鼠体内，制作实验性自身免疫性甲状腺炎（EAT）的动物模型。免免疫干预组从0－28d，治疗组从10－38d单独或者联合应用环孢菌素A（CsA,10mg/kg)灌胃和（或）1,25(OH)2D3(0.2μg/kg）腹腔注射，pTG免疫后第28d，第38d处死小鼠，取甲状腺组织作病理学检查，并检测血清中猪的甲状腺球蛋白抗体（pTGAb)、猪的甲状腺微粒体抗体（pTMAb)。免疫干预组和治疗组联合应用小剂量CsA和1，25（OH）2D3分别使EAT发病率降低44．44％和37．50％。严重病例分别降低71．43％和60．32％，免疫干预组的血清pTGAb,pTMAb的值均降低。提示：小剂量免疫抑制剂CsA和1，25（OH）2D2联合防治EAT有效，并具有协同作用。     

甲型H1N1流感若干共同关注的问题

今年3月18日,墨西哥首次报道了人感染甲型H1N1流感病毒,很快这种疾病就从美国与墨西哥交界处往世界蔓延,全球立刻拉响了甲型H1N1流感警钟[甲型H1N1流感,原称人感染猪流感,WHO于2009年4月30日更名为A(H1N1)流感,我国相继更名为甲型H1N1流感].     

Immunohistochemical and immunoelectron microscopical characterization of cerebrovascular and senile plaque amyloid in aged dogs'' brains

Immunohistochemical and immunoelectron microscopical studies were carried out on 28 aged dogs' brains. Amyloid deposits were seen in the arteries and capillaries in the leptomeninges and in superficial areas of the cortices in 19 (67.9%) of the 28 dogs (10-22 years of age). Immunohistochemically, these amyloid deposits were reactive for anti-beta/A4 antibody. Additionally, a variable number of parenchymal deposits with diffuse beta/A4-immunoreactivity (diffuse plaques) was also noted throughout the cerebral cortex in 24/28 dogs (85.7%). However, these plaque lesions were undetectable in Congo red staining. Electron microscopically, amyloid fibrils, measuring 10 nm in width, were located mainly in the tunica media of the arteries, and in less involved vessels they tended to be present among collagen fibres in the adventitia and smooth muscle cells in the outer layer of the media. The plaque lesions appeared to contain sparse aggregations of amyloid fibrils. In immunoelectron microscopical examinations, all amyloid fibrils in both blood vessels and plaques were selectively labelled by gold particles. These findings indicate that aged dogs can provide a useful experimental model for research into the beta/A4-type of cerebral amyloidosis commonly seen in Alzheimer's disease.     

MMP-2、TIMP-2与碱烧伤后角膜新生血管形成的实验研究

目的:探讨基质金属蛋白酶-2(MMP-2)、基质金属蛋白酶-2组织型抑制剂(TIMP-2)在碱烧伤大鼠角膜新生血管(CNV)形成中的表达和意义。方法:采用碱烧伤大鼠角膜建立CNV模型,摘除角膜作病理切片,多形核白细胞(PMN)记数;免疫组化法检测MMP-2、TIMP-2的表达。结果:烧伤后1d角膜缘PMN开始增多,到CNV7d组PMN增加最明显,此后逐渐减少;免疫组化显示:MMP-2在CNV中阳性表达逐渐增加,于7d表达最明显,此后随炎性细胞的减少而减弱,21d后几乎无表达;TIMP-2则于早期变化不明显,7d表达开始升高,14d达高峰。结论:烧伤后CNV形成早期,MMP-2活性增高,继而TIMP-2表达增加,使MMP-2活性受抑,基底膜降解受阻,新生血管延伸停滞;CNV形成中,MMP-2的表达增加,并与角膜的炎性反应程度一致,PMN浸润可能是CNV形成的关键因素。
