目的:建立一种裸鼠前列腺癌骨转移模型,观察肿瘤局部生长和远处转移情况,并进一步探讨其应用价值。方法:9只6周龄雄性BALB/C裸鼠麻醉后,将前肢及左后肢固定,以1 m l TB针筒-29G针头从胫骨头关节窝,刺入骨髓腔缓缓注入人前列腺癌Du145细胞悬液30μl(约5×106个细胞)至骨髓腔,以建立前列腺癌骨转移模型。观察裸鼠生命体征变化。于濒死状态下处死,取右后肢及其附近淋巴结、肺脏和肝脏等标本,用40 m l/L甲醛固定、石蜡包埋、苏木精-伊红染色后显微镜下观察。结果:9只裸鼠中有6只模型建立成功。接种后平均48 d裸鼠出现跛行现象,右后肢胫骨部可触及米粒大小的包块,质硬,进一步发展至小鼠行走障碍。55 d后出现恶病质,解剖后发现右后肢胫骨部骨质疏松,局部有“腐肉”样组织突出髓腔,填塞肌肉间隙,病理证实为肿瘤组织。肝脏泛黄、被膜皱缩,镜下呈急性重型肝炎的病理改变。结论:胫骨内注射细胞悬液制作裸鼠前列腺癌骨转移模型较好地模拟了人前列腺癌在骨骼微环境中的生长及转归情况,是研究前列腺肿瘤骨转移的适宜模型。     

MDR1特异性核酶逆转肝癌多药耐药的实验研究

目的探讨MDR1核酶（N2A＋tRNAi^met-iMDRl-sRz，sRz）在裸鼠体内逆转人肝癌组织多药耐药（MDR）的可行性。方法将原发性MDR人肝癌组织裸鼠原位移植模型第2代随机分为A组（空白对照组：生理盐水40μl＋Lipofect AMINE^TM2000 10μ1）、B组（阴性对照组：N2A＋tRNAi^met 10μg／40μl＋Lipofect AMINE^TM2000 10μl）和C组（核酶组：sRz 10μg／40μl＋LipofectAMINE^TM2000 10μl），均开腹瘤内注射。瘤内注药1周后用表阿霉素15mg／kg腹腔注射，每周1次，连续4周。彩色B超测量肿瘤体积。化疗结束后1周处死裸鼠，RT-PCR、Western blot法检测肿瘤中MDR1 mRNA及其蛋白P-gp的表达。结果C组每次化疗后肿瘤体积均较前缩小（F=659．99，P〈0．05）。除第1次化疗外，其余各次化疗后C组的抑制率均高于A、B组（F=35．36，12．77，97．60，P〈0．05）。化疗结束后，C组与瘤源以及A、B组相比，肿瘤组织中MDR1 mRNA和P-gp的表达明显降低（F=45．36，3590．40，P〈0．05）。结论sRz可有效降低肝癌细胞表达MDR1 mRNA和P-gp，一定程度上逆转MDR，提高E-ADM的化疗效果。单纯E-ADM化疗可使肝癌组织MDR1 mRNA和P-gp表达升高，诱导MDR的产生。

The effect of anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody, rapamycin and interferon-γ on airway hyperreactivity to acetylcholine in mice

Background The role of IgE in airway hyperreaetivity is obscure. Objective In order to clarify the role of IgE in airway hyperreactivity, we investigated the effect of anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody, rapamycin and interferon-γ on the antigen-induced IgE response, airway eosinophilia and hyperreactivity in mice. Methods Mice were immunized with an antigen (ovalbumin; OA) at intervals of 12 days. OA was inhaled 10 days after the secondary immunization. Twenty-four hours after the last inhalation, airway reactivity to acetylcholine was measured and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was obtained. Results Three inhalations of antigen caused an increase in the number of eosinophils in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and in airway hyperreactivity to acetylcholine with a significant elevation of serum IgE level. Anti-IL-4 at a dose of 1000 μg/animal and rapamycin at doses between 0.1 and 1 mg/kg inhibited the IgE production, but did not affect the airway eosinophilia or hyperreactivity to acetylcholine. In contrast, IFN-γ clearly inhibited the antigen-induced airway eosinophilia and hyperreactivity, but did not affect the IgE antibody production. Conclusion These results suggest that the inhibition of IgE production does not suppress the onset of airway hyperreactivity and eosinophilia in mice, and that IFN-γ inhibits the antigen-induced airway hyperreactivity, probably due to the inhibition of airway eosinophilia.

An Evolutionarily Conserved Region in the Second lntron of the Human Nestin Gene Directs Gene Exmession to CNS Progenitor Cells and to Early Neural Ciest Cells

Central nervous system (CNS) progenitor cells transiently proliferate in the embryonic neural tube and give rise to neurons and glial cells. A characteristic feature of the CNS progenitor cells is expression of the intermediate filament nestin and it was previously shown that the rat nestin second intron functions as an enhancer, directing gene expression to CNS progenitor cells. In this report we characterize the nestin enhancer in further detail. Cloning and sequence analysis of the rat and human nestin second introns revealed local domains of high sequence similarity in the 3' portion of the introns. Transgenic mice were generated with the most conserved 714 bp in the 3' portion of the intron, or with the complete, 1852 bp, human second intron, coupled to the reporter gene lacZ. The two constructs gave a very similar nestin-like expression pattern, indicating that the important control elements reside in the 714 bp element. Expression was observed starting in embryonic day (E)7.5 neural plate, and at E10.5 CNS progenitor cells throughout the neural tube expressed lacZ. At E12.5, lacZ expression was more restricted and confined to proliferating regions in the neural tube. An interesting difference, compared to the rat nestin second intron, was that the human intron at E10.5 mediated lacZ expression also in early migrating neural crest cells, which is a site of endogenous nestin expression. In conclusion, these data show that a relatively short, evolutionarily conserved region is sufficient to control gene expression in CNS progenitor cells, but that the same region differs between rodents and primates in its capacity to control expression in neural crest cells.     

Frequency of T-Cell Progenitors in Nude Mice

The hypothesis that prothymocytes are distinct from and regulated independently of multilineage hemopoietic progenitors was tested by enumeration of these two cell populations in normal versus congenitally athymic (nude) mice. The absence of a thymus and of peripheral T cells in nude mice had no effect on the frequency of either multilineage progenitors (day 12 CFU-S) or prothymocytes (CFU-T), suggesting that there is no feedback regulation of CFU-T frequency. Thymus seeding from the bone marrow is therefore likely to be regulated by the availability of niches for prothymocyte maturation, rather than by feedback control of prothymocyte production.
