Differential modulation of the short- and long-latency somatosensory evoked potentials in a forewarned reaction time task.

OBJECTIVE: We investigated modulation of the short- and long-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) in a forewarned reaction time task. METHODS: A pair of warning (auditory) and imperative stimuli (somatosensory) was presented with a 2 s interstimulus interval. In movement condition, subjects responded by grip movement with the ipsilateral hand to the somatosensory stimulation when the imperative stimulus was presented. In counting condition, they silently counted the number of imperative stimuli. The SEPs in response to the imperative stimuli were recorded. RESULTS: Frontal N30 and central N60 amplitudes were significantly smaller in the movement than in the counting or rest conditions. None of the short-latency components differed between the counting and rest conditions. In contrast to the short-latency components, P80 was significantly larger in the counting than in the rest condition, and showed a further increase from the counting to the movement condition. The N140 amplitude was significantly larger in the movement than the rest condition, but was not changed between the counting and the rest conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The attenuation of the frontal N30 and central N60, and the enhancement of the P80 and possibly the N140 resulted from the centrifugal mechanism. The present findings may show the different effects of voluntary movement on the early and subsequent cortical processing of the relevant somatosensory information requiring a behavioral response. SIGNIFICANCE: The present study demonstrated the differential modulation of short- and long-latency components of SEPs in a forewarned reaction time task.     

JX-1对雄性小鼠生殖细胞致突变作用的研究

本文采用小鼠精子试验和小鼠睾丸DNA合成抑制试验,检测了JX-1对雄性生殖细胞的致突变作用。实验结果表明JX-1对小鼠精子总数、精子活动率及精子畸形率均无统计学意义的增加,与小鼠睾丸DNA合成抑制试验阴性反应一致。作者认为JX-1对雄性生殖细胞为一种非诱变剂。     

优选前后精子顶体酶活性与IVF受精率相关性的研究

目的探讨优选处理前和处理后精子顶体酶活性的变化,及与体外受精(IVF)受精率的相关性。方法采用分光光度比色法,对接受IVF治疗的53例不育夫妇男方精液,分别测定优选处理前和处理后精子顶体酶活性,分析其与IVF受精率的相关性。结果优选处理后精子顶体酶活性与优选前比较有显著性差异(P<0.05);达到常规IVF标准并选择常规IVF治疗者,优选后的精子顶体酶活性与IVF受精率有相关性,精子顶体酶活性降低与IVF受精率降低有关。结论精子顶体酶活性与IVF受精率有相关性,并且通过精子顶体酶活性可以预测IVF受精率。

天津市城区成年居民坐高身高指数的调查

目的：探讨成年人坐高身高指数的规律。方法：按中国体育科学会体育研究会规定的方法，测量男性321名，女性324名成人的坐高和身高，每5周岁为一个年龄组，男女各10个年龄组，结果：坐高身高指数均值曲线在男性21－30岁，女性21－35岁年龄组呈递增趋势，提示成年人QD在此年龄组躯干仍存在生长的可能性，在男性56－70岁，女性61－70岁年龄组呈递减趋势，提示成年人在此年龄组脊柱在逐渐缩短，男女两性的指数曲线在30岁左右形成一个交叉点，在此交叉点前女性低于男性，交叉点之后男性低于女性，成人坐高身高指数均值显示男女两性均属躯干均衡型，结论：成年人坐高身高指数具有阶段性递增，递减规律。

Distinct Expression of Cytokines and Mitogenic Inhibitory Factors in Semen of Fertile and Infertile Men

PROBLEM: To assess the effect of seminal plasma (SP) of fertile and infertile men on leukocyte mitogenic response, and the capability of sperm cells to produce IL-1. METHODS: This study included four groups: fertile men (donors, normal), infertile men with azoospermia (azoo), oligo-terato-asthenozoospermia (OTA), and OTA with genital infection (OTA-inf). Mouse spleen cell proliferation in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or Concanavalin-A (Con-A) was examined in the presence of SP from the above four groups. Supernatants (sup) and lysates (lys) of sperm cells from fertile and oligoteratoasthenospermic (OTA) men were evaluated for IL-1 bioactivity by specific bioassay. RESULTS: Seminal plasma (SP) of the four groups were shown to inhibit the mitogenic response of mouse spleen cells to LPS and Con-A. SP of fertile men was significantly more inhibitory than SP from infertile men. Sperm cells from fertile and OTA infertile men constitutively produced IL-1. Sperm cells of both groups produced similar levels of IL-1 as examined in the supernatants and lysates. CONCLUSIONS: Seminal plasma of fertile men had more inhibitory mitogenic activity than that of OTA. Sperm cells constitutively produce IL-1. It is possible that the factors involved in this inhibition are not only anti-proliferative immune factors. Cytokines and inhibitory factors of mitogenesis in the seminal plasma may be involved in the physiology and pathophysiology of sperm functions and thus affect male fertility.
