本文采用部分肋骨切除术,切除15只家兔双侧5、6、7、8肋中任一肋距脊柱约2cm处一段长约1cm的肋骨。一周后对受冲击波致伤的肺肋面的出血情况进行解剖观察,发现肺肋面的出血条纹呈“工”字形,从而为冲击伤肺肋面的平行出血条纹是肋间压痕这一观点找到了直接的实验证据。

Heat shock protein 60 (HSP60) immunoreactivity in gastric epithelium associated with Helicobacter pylori infection: a pitfall in immunohistochemically interpreting HSP60-mediated autoimmune responses

Previous studies have suggested that heat shock proteins (HSP) of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) are involved in the induction of autoimmunity mediated gastritis. In the present report, the cross-reactivity between H. pylori-related HSP60 and gastric epithelial cells was investigated by the indirect immunoperoxidase method using two monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against H. pylori-derived HSP60, H9 and H20. H9 is reactive with an epitope common to bacterial HSP60, while H20 is specific to H. pylori HSP60. A total of 70 paraffin-embedded gastric biopsy specimens were analyzed after heat-induced epitope retrieval. Both mAb were cross-reactive with the gastric epithelial cells, with a higher frequency seen for the H9-reactive epitope. The frequency of positive epithelial decoration was not significantly different between H. pylori-positive and H. pylori-negative gastric mucosae. A variety of epithelial and non-epithelial cells were immunostained with mAb H9, while mAb H20 was cross-reactive only with small intestinal epithelia. Reactivity was mainly located in the Golgi area and rarely in the cytoplasm. These results suggest a noteworthy pitfall in immunohistochemical interpretations of HSP60-associated autoimmune reactions in the gastric mucosa.     

Induction of heat shock proteins in lymphocytes increases with mitogen stimulation

The effect of the growth state of a cell on the ability of hyperthermia to induce the synthesis of heat shock proteins (HSPs) was studied in resting and concanavalin A (ConA)-stimulated lymphocytes. Hyperthermia induced the synthesis of hsp 110, hsp 90, hsc 70, and hsp 70 in both resting and ConA-stimulated lymhocytes, and ConA-treatment induced the synthesis of the hsp 90 and hsc 70 at normal temperature. The induction of the synthesis of hsp 110 and hsp 70 by hyperthermia was 3- to 6-fold higher for lymphocytes cultured with ConA for 12 and 24 h than in non-stimulated lymphocytes. Thus, lymphocytes induced to undergo proliferation showed a greater response to hyperthermia than resting lymphocytes.     

LHRH messenger RNA in neurons in the intact and castrate male rat forebrain,studied by in situ hybridization

Summary The slow potential change (spc) accompanying spreading depression (SD) was studied in rats and in a seizure-sensitive strain of Mongolian gerbil under three different experimental paradigms, each involving the use of naloxone. Gerbils undergoing electroconvulsive shock treatment displayed SD during the post-ictal phase, which was blocked by the intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of naloxone (20–50 mg kg^-1). Topical application of naloxone to the exposed cortex of the anaesthetized gerbil and rat blocked the spc of SD evoked by KCl. Microiontophoretic ejection of naloxone during extracellular recordings reversed cell refractoriness following the spc, demonstrated by the observation of a maintained sensitivity to iontophoretic pulses of glutamate. The results suggest a possible involvement of naloxone-sensitive processes in the mechanism responsible for cortical SD.

Heat shock proteins HSP25, HSP60, HSP72, HSP73 in isoosmotic cortex and hyperosmotic medulla of rat kidney

The distribution of heat shock proteins (HSP) HSP60, HSP73, HSP72 and HSP25 in the isoosmotic cortex and the hyperosmotic medulla of the rat kidney was investigated using Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. HSP73 was homogeneously distributed throughout the whole kidney. The level of HSP60 was high in the renal cortex and low in the medulla. HSP25 and HSP72 were present in large amounts in the medulla. Only low levels of HSP25 and almost undetectable amounts of HSP72 were found in the cortex. HSP25 exists in one nonphosphorylated and several phosphorylated isoforms. Western blot analysis preceded by isoelectric focussing showed that HSP25 predominates in its nonphosphorylated form in the outer medulla but in its phosphorylated form in cortex and inner medulla. Although this intrarenal distribution pattern was not changed during prolonged anaesthesia (thiobutabarbital sodium), a shift from the nonphosphorylated to the phosphorylated isoforms of HSP25 occurred in the medulla. The characteristic intrarenal distribution of the constitutively expressed HSPs (HSP73, HSP60, HSP25) may reflect different states of metabolic activity in the isoosmotic (cortex) and hyperosmotic (medulla) zones of the kidney. The high content of inducible HSP72 in the medulla most likely is a consequence of the osmotic stress imposed upon the cells by the high urea and salt concentrations in the hyperosmotic medullary environment.     

固脱汤对失血性休克大鼠糖皮质激素受体的影响

目的和方法：以［３Ｈ］地塞米松为配体，用放射配体结合法测定了正常对照组、失血休克组和固脱汤加失血休克组大鼠肝胞液及胸腺细胞糖皮质激素受体（ＧＲ），用竞争性蛋白结合分析法测定了血浆中皮质酮（ＣＣ）的浓度。结果：固脱汤加失血估克组失血１２ｈ后肝胞液及胸腺细胞ＧＲ高于失血组（Ｐ＜００１）。和正常对照组的差别不显著。失血休克组及固脱汤加失血休克组血浆ＣＣ的浓度的差别不显著，但均高于正常对照组（Ｐ＜００１）。结论：固脱汤可在一定程度上防止失血休克时ＧＲ的减少而不影响血浆ＣＣ的水平，为固脱汤抗休克从受体水平提供了依据     

Prevention of endotoxin shock by an antibody against leukocyte integrin {beta}2 through inhibiting production and action of TNF

Septic shock remains a serious disorder associated with highmortality. Accumulating evidence indicates that TNF is a majorand essential mediator of endotoxin shock. We report here thatadministration of an antibody against CD18 dramatically reducedendotoxin-induced shock inrabbits as revealed by preventionof severe hypotension, metabolic acidosis and a pathologicalchange suggestive of disseminated intravascular coagulationwith concomitant inhibition of elevation of plasma TNF activity.The anti-CD18 antibody also inhibited the hypotension inducedby administering recombinant TNF. Furthermore, an antibody againsta ligand for CD18 complexes, intercellular adhesion molecule-1,also prevented TNF-induced shock as well as endotoxin shockinrabbits. These observations suggest that adhesion of leukocytesto endothelium may be of primary importance in the action ofTNF as well as in the production of TNF in vivo and that theantibody against adhesion molecules could be of therapeuticbenefit in life-threatening septic shock in humans.
