早产儿血清表皮生长因子水平与脑发育相关研究

目的探讨早产儿血清表皮生长因子水平与脑发育的关系。方法依据入选标准观察对象为自2005年8月起连续收治入本院新生儿病房、出生24h内的胎龄为34周±3d的“正常”早产适于胎龄儿30例。采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法,分别测定30例早产儿生后24h内和出生第8天空腹股静脉血清表皮生长因子(EGF)水平,分别为t0和t1值,计算血清EGF浓度变化的速率(Δt)。同时,在新生儿出生后6周(纠正胎龄接近40周)和纠正1月龄时进行NBNA评分测定。并将以上实验室数据与新生儿行为神经测定(NBNA)评分值及差值、早产儿出生后的头围增长值及增长速率进行Pearson相关分析。如果P值<0.05,则认为差有统计学意义。结果30例早产儿观察对象t0为(234.71±58.07)pg/ml,t1为(347.81±87.49)pg/ml,Δt为(16.16±9.94)(12.14、15.20)pg/ml/d;Pearson相关分析显示2次NBNA评分结果及差值、出生后6周和纠正1月龄时的头围增长值/增长速率与t0值无相关性(P>0.05);2次NBNA评分结果及差值、出生后6周和纠正1月龄时的头围增长值/增长速率与t1和Δt之间有相关性(P<0.05)。结论研究结果表明,早产儿出生后血清EGF浓度呈上升趋势,提示早产儿出生后体内EGF合成和释放增加,可能促进脏器成熟和组织修复;更重要的是,早产儿出生1周时高水平血清EGF浓度和/或较快上升速率者,其出生后头围增长速度也快,可能有较好的脑发育水平、远期预后良好。     

Lipoprotein lipase in relation to inflammatory activity in rheumatoid arthritis

Objective. To evaluate the impact of chronic inflammation on lipoprotein lipase (LPL) levels and triglyceride metabolism in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Design. Plasma levels of LPL activity and mass before and after heparin were determined in post-menopausal women with active RA and in controls. The results were related to lipid levels and inflammatory variables. The LPL activity and mass together with triglyceride levels were also measured before and 6 h after an oral fat load. Setting. The study was performed on in- and out-patients at a University Rheumatology clinic. The controls came from the same reference area. Subjects. Altogether 17 consecutive post-menopausal female patients with RA and 16 age and sex matched controls were enrolled for the initial determination of LPL. Fifteen of the patients and 15 of the controls agreed to take part in the fat load. Of these, one patient and one control were excluded. Main outcome measures. LPL determination: basal levels and post-heparin levels of LPL activity and mass. Correlations between LPL and blood lipids (cholesterol, triglycerides), lipoprotein levels (high density lipoprotein, HDL; low density lipoprotein, LDL), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) acute phase proteins (orosomucoid, haptoglobin, fibrinogen mass) and cytokines (tumour necrosis factor α, TNF-α; interleukin 1β, IL-1β; and interleukin-6, IL-6). Fat tolerance test: LPL activity, mass and triglyceride levels before and 6 h after a per oral fat load. Results. Pre-heparin LPL mass (P<0.01) and activity (P<0.01) were significantly lower in the rheumatoid patients. Pre-heparin LPL mass showed no correlation to the lipid levels, but an inverse correlation to several inflammatory parameters; it was significant for orosomucoid (r_s=?0.63, P<0.05) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (r_s=?0.54, P<0.05) and close to significant for haptoglobin (r_s=?0.48, P=0.087) and IL-6 (r_s=?0.52, P=0.061). Six hours after a lipid load the LPL activity and mass were significantly lower in RA (P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively) but the triglyceride level was not significantly different compared to controls. Conclusion. An inverse relationship exists between inflammatory status and pre-heparin LPL mass. Pre-heparin LPL mass reflects mainly the inactive monomeric fraction of LPL. This has been shown to hinder the uptake of remnant lipoprotein particles through competition with lipoprotein bound dimeric LPL for the LDL receptor-related protein (LRP receptor) on hepatocytes and macrophages in culture. A decrease of the level of monomeric LPL in plasma may thus be beneficial for remnant catabolism. The same mechanism may on the other hand increase macrophage uptake of lipids. This may not affect global lipid metabolism but may be important in driving the atherosclerotic process in the vessel wall.     

北京市城乡乳母的营养状况、乳成分和婴儿摄入母乳量及生长发育的关系——Ⅲ母乳的脂质分析

本文报导了1983～1984年北京市城区(宣武区),近郊区(西红门)和远郊区(大皮营)母乳脂质成分的测定结果,并结合乳母营养状况给予评价。 共测定了207例母乳比重,平均范围在1.018～1.023之间;测定了216例母乳的脂肪含量(g/100g乳),城区平均值为3.78,近郊区为3.31,远郊区为3.08,城区的显著较高;测定了194例母乳胆固醇含量,初乳的最高(23.4mg/100g乳),以后逐渐减低,到第三个月后达稳定水平(约10mg/100g乳),三个调查点的情况相同,测定了221例母乳的脂肪酸组成,其主要成分为油酸(29～37％),棕榈酸(17～25％)和亚油酸(12～25％),远郊区母乳中所含的必需脂肪酸显著较高。 统计分析证明三个地区的乳脂含量(％)与乳胆固醇含量(mg/100g乳)间有显著性相关(P<0.01);188例乳母的膳食脂肪摄入量(g/日或％kcal)与乳脂含量间也有显著性相关(P<0.05),此结果表明,北京城乡母乳的乳脂含量可能受膳食脂质与量的影响,其脂肪酸组成的特点是亚油酸含量高,反映了我国人民以素食为主的饮食习惯。乳中的必需脂肪酸供给量可满足婴儿所需,胆固醇供给量为70～85mg/d,可作为同龄婴儿自母乳摄入量的参考。

目的:分析血脂代谢异常与冠状动脉狭窄程度的关系.方法:对366例因胸痛而就诊的患者行选择性冠状动脉造影,按冠状动脉狭窄程度分为正常对照组、单支病变组、双支病变组、多支病变组.同时观察患者血脂各成分,并对各组指标进行统计学分析.结果:总胆固醇(TC)、甘油三脂(TG)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C),在各组之间存在差异,尤其多支病变组与正常组之间差异显著(P＜0.01).TC、TG、LDL-C随冠状动脉病变加重而增加,HDL-C随冠状动脉病变加重而减少,LDL-C与冠状动脉狭窄程度呈正相关,HDL-C与冠状动脉狭窄程度呈负相关.结论:血脂代谢紊乱与冠状动脉狭窄的发生发展有内在的联系,对于预测有无冠状动脉病变及其进展有一定临床意义.     

Studies on capsaicin inhibition of chemically induced lipid peroxidation in the lung and liver tissues of rat

Previous work from this laboratory has already indicated that capsaicin, stabilizes the rat lung membrane lipid system on long-term treatment. This stabilization of the membrane is further supported by our present findings that capsaicin pretreatment causes significant inhibition of various chemically induced lipid peroxidative changes at both cellular and subcellular levels. Both in vivo and in vitro studies, using whole lung and liver tissue slices and mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, have shown that capsaicin pretreatment inhibits peroxidative changes at both cellular and subcellular levels. Both in vivo and in vitro studies, using whole lung and liver tissue slices and mitochondrial and microsomal fractions, have shown that capsaicin pretreatment inhibits peroxidative changes induced by different chemical irritants such as chloroform, dichloromethane, carbon tetrachloride as well as ferrous sulphate.

Intracellular distribution and effect of the antimalarial drug mefloquine on lysosomes of rat liver

Abstract: Mefloquine was administered in a single dose (1–30 mg/100 g) to rats in order to study its subcellular distribution and effects on rat liver lysosomal structure and function. Subcellular fractionation showed a significant enrichment of mefloquine in lysosomes. Even repeated administration of mefloquine did not affect the levels of cytochrome-P-450 or its reductase, indicating, although not proving, that it is not metabolized by this mono-oxygenase system. Mefloquine caused an expansion of the lysosomal apparatus, earliest seen by 24 h and lasting for some 7 days. Initially, cytoplasmic constituents were seen inside the lysosomes. Later, the lysosomes harboured myelin-like figures (multilamellar bodies) disappearing after 7–10 days. The proteolytic and lipolytic capacity was assessed in isolated lysosomes. Mefloquine caused increased protein degradation but decreased breakdown of lipids. Concomitantly, all five major phospholipids (phosphatidyl-choline, -ethanolamine, -inositol, -serine and sphingomyelin) increased in the lysosomes. It is concluded that: (1) mefloquine is a lysosomotropic drug that accumulates in lysosomes; (2) mefloquine impairs lipid degradation with ensuing accumulation of lipids in lysosomes; and (3) lysosomal trapping explains the high volume distribution of mefloquine.
