吡哌酸锌对小鼠烫伤感染的体表保护作用

目的观察吡哌酸锌软膏对烫伤后常见的感染菌绿脓肝菌、金黄色葡萄球菌的保护作用，并与阳性对照药磺胺嘧啶银霜、磺胺嘧啶锌软膏进行对比。方法取18～22克小鼠，在麻醉下将其尾部造成烫伤，然后再分别将其尾部没入绿脓肝菌和金黄色葡萄球菌液内，使其感染，尾部套上塑料管，将不同浓度的吡哌酸锌，磺胺嘧啶锌软膏及磺胺嘧啶银霜注入管内，封闭，连续观察14d内小鼠死亡现象拼进行显著性检验；结果综合计算法计算各药ED50为：（1）金黄色葡萄球菌，吡哌酸锌软膏ED50=69．84±18．27mg·kg－1，磺胺嘧啶银霜ED50=73．49±19．98mg·kg。（2）绿脓杆菌，吡哌酸锌软ED50=58．16±15.22mg·kg－1，磺胺嘧啶银霜ED50=80．1±2.24mg·kg－1。磺胺嘧啶锌软膏浓度低于0．4％即有明显抗菌作用。结论吡哌酸锋软膏、磺胺嘧啶银霜、磺胺嘧啶软膏均有明显抗菌作用，前两者相比没有显著差异，但吡哌酸锌软膏的抗菌作用比磺胺胺嘧啶锌强。     

Ectodysplasin-1 deficiency in a German Holstein bull associated with loss of respiratory mucous glands and chronic rhinotracheitis

A 2-year-old German Holstein bull was identified as a carrier of a mutation within the X-chromosomal ED1 gene, which encodes a TNF-related signalling molecule mainly involved in ectodermal development. The clinicopathological appearance was associated with hypotrichosis, hypodontia, and a reduced number of eccrine glands, in addition to chronic rhinotracheitis and partial squamous metaplasia. Furthermore, for the first time in an ED1-deficient animal, a complete lack of respiratory mucous glands was observed. This suggests that the ED1 gene plays a role in the development of mucous glands, the absence of which resembles a feature of X-linked anhidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (ED1) in human patients.

Familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (ATTR Ser50Ile): the first autopsy case report

We report an autopsy case of a pedigree of familial amyloidotic polyneuropathy (FAP) with a mutation of isoleucine-50 transthyretin (ATTR Ser50Ile). A 47-year-old man started developing severe diarrhea and weight loss at age 41 years, followed by urinary incontinence, autonomic-nervous-system abnormalities and serious heart failure; the diagnosis of FAP (ATTR Ser50Ile) was made on the basis of genetic, histochemical and immunohistochemical analysis. Six years after the initial symptoms, he died of septic shock. Autopsy revealed suppurative peritonitis, perforation of the sigmoid colon and marked systemic amyloid deposition. The total amount of amyloid deposited in the heart was greatly increased and was much lower in the thyroid gland and kidneys compared with amyloid deposits in ordinary FAP (ATTR Val30Met). Amyloid deposition in peripheral vessel walls was prominent, particularly in lymphatics and veins. His elder sister, 54 years old, started to develop orthostatic hypotension at age 49 years, followed by dysesthesia, diarrhea and severe congestive heart failure. Endomyocardial biopsy revealed severe TTR–amyloid deposition; ultrastructural examination demonstrated that amyloid fibrils were deposited disproportionately and extended radially around microvessels. These characteristic patterns of systemic amyloid deposition and distinct clinical manifestations, especially in the cardiovascular system, are considered to be a characteristic feature of ATTR Ser50Ile amyloidosis.

Expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-3 (ICAM-3/CD50) in malignant lymphoproliferative disorders and solid tumors

ICAM-3/CD50 is a recently described LFA-1 counter receptor that seems to play an important role in the initiation of immune responses. In this study we have examined the expression of ICAM-3/CD50 in a large series of human neoplasms including 101 Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL), 26 Hodgkin's disease, and 38 solid tumors to define the distribution patterns of this molecule in malignant neoplasms and their possible correlation with clinical and pathological characteristics of the patients. In NHL, ICAM-3/CD50 was expressed in almost all the tumors with a tendency to be lost in high grade lymphomas. Reed-Sternberg cells and their variants in Hodgkin's disease were always negative independently of the histological subtype of the disease. No expression was observed in tumor epithelial cells of the 38 solid tumors examined. Strong endothelial cell staining was observed in 31% of the NHL and 31% of Hodgkin's disease. ICAM-3 expression in these cases was restricted to small tumor vessels. ICAM-3 expression in endothelial cells of NHL was significantly more frequent in high grade (40%) than in low grade lymphomas (14%) (p=0.012). In addition, tumor vessels were also positive in 29% of solid rumors independently of the histological type. No correlation was observed between ICAM-3 expression in tumor or endothelial cells and other clinical and pathological characteristics of the patients. These findings indicate that ICAM-3 expression in human tumors is restricted to hematological neoplasms with a tendency to be lost in high grade lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease. ICAM-3 is also expressed by endothelial cells from tumor-associated neovascularization in both lymphoid and solid tumors.     

Reactivity of a monoclonal antibody produced to the histidine-rich protein of Plasmodium lophurae with Plasmodium falciparum

Monoclonal antibodies were produced against the histidine-rich protein of Plasmodium lophurae and tested for reactivity with Plasmodium falciparum antigens. One anti-histidine-rich protein monoclonal antibody showed immunological cross-reactivity with polypeptides of P. falciparum synthesized in vivo and in vitro.     

A comparison of the bronchodilator activity of Sch 1000 and salbutamol.

The effects of the beta 2-adrenergic agonist, salbutamol, 200 mug, and the cholinergic antagonist, Sch 1000, 40 mug, have been compared in 25 asthmatic patients using a single dose, double-blind, crossover trial design. Salbutamol aerosol produces a greater degree of bronchodilatation than Sch 1000 aerosol during the initial three hours following drug administration. There is no significant difference in the bronchodilator effects of the two drugs in the interval four to eight hours after drug administration. Nonatopic patients showed less difference in bronchodilator response to each of the two drugs than atopic patients. Neither drug showed any significant adverse effect on blood pressure, pulse rate, or electrocardiogram. In six asthmatic patients the effect of the combination of salbutamol, 200 mug, and Sch 1000, 40 mug, was evaluated. The combination produced a longer duration of bronchodilatation than either drug alone when compared to placebo.
