血清低密度脂蛋白胆固醇直接测定与Friedewald公式计算结果比较

采用聚乙烯硫酸（ＰＶＳ）沉淀法测定血清低密度脂蛋白胆固醇（ＬＤＬ－Ｃ）值，同时应用Ｆｒｉｅｄｅｗａｌｄ公式计算ＬＤＬ－Ｃ含量，并对两法结果进行比较分析，提出当甘油三脂（ＴＧ）＜４．５２ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ时，Ｆ公式计算法可代替ＰＶＳ法，当ＴＧ＞４．５２ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ时，不宜用Ｆ公式计算ＬＤＬ－Ｃ的值。     

Mast cell activation involves plasma membrane potential- and thapsigargin-sensitive intracellular calcium pools

Summary— The regulation and role of the intracellular Ca²⁺ pools were studied in rat peritoneal mast cells. Cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca²⁺]i) was monitored in fura-2 loaded mast cells. In the presence of Ca²⁺ and K+, compound 48/80 induced a biphasic increase in [Ca²⁺]i composed of a fast transient phase and an apparent sustained phase. The sustained phase was partially inhibited by the addition of Mn²⁺. DTPA, a cell-impermeant chelator of Mn²⁺, reversed this inhibition, suggesting that a quenching of fura-2 fluorescence occurs in the extracellular medium. In the absence of extracellular Ca²⁺, the transient phase, but not the sustained one, could be preserved, provided that mast cells were depolarized. The transient phase was completely abolished by thapsigargin, a microsomal Ca²⁺-ATPase inhibitor. Maximum histamine release induced by either compound 48/80 or antigen was obtained in the absence of added Ca²⁺ only when mast cells were depolarized. These histamine releases were inhibited by low doses (< 30 nM) of thapsigargin. Thapsigargin at higher doses induced histamine release which was unaffected by changing the plasma membrane potential, but was completely dependent on extracellular Ca²⁺, showing that a Ca²⁺ influx is required for thapsigargin-induced exocytosis. Together, these results suggest that the mobilization of Ca²⁺ from thapsigargin sensitive-intracellular pools induced by compound 48/80 or antigen is sufficient to trigger histamine release. The modulation of these pools by the plasma membrane potential suggest their localization is close to the plasma membrane.

BUERGER'S DISEASE IN HONG KONG: A REVIEW OF 89 CASES

Background : A retrospective analysis of 103 case records from 1978 to 1996 with a provisional diagnosis of Buerger's disease was undertaken at the Department of Surgery, University of Hong Kong, Queen Mary Hospital. The aim of the study was to elucidate the clinical course and evaluate the results of surgical intervention of Buerger's disease in Hong Kong Chinese people. Methods : Fourteen patients were subsequently excluded from the study because of inability to fulfil our diagnostic criteria. Data on clinical presentation, investigations, indications and results of surgical intervention were reviewed. Sympathectomies and arterial reconstructions were performed on 42 and four patients, respectively, for critical ischaemia or rest pain. Outcome was analysed with respect to the rate of ulcer healing, pattern of recurrence and limb loss. Results : The patients were all young male heavy smokers with a mean age of 36.5 years. The majority of patients (80%) presented with ischaemic ulceration or gangrene. Vascular reconstruction was undertaken in four patients and satisfactory long-term results were obtained in three patients. Sympathectomy was able to relieve symptoms in 87% of operated patients and ischaemic ulceration healed in 2.6 (mean) ± 1.7 (SD) months after the operation. If the patient continued to smoke, surgical intervention did not exempt the patient from a relapse or amputation. Conclusion : Sympathectomy provides short-term pain relief and promotes ulcer healing in patients with Buerger's disease but carries no long-term benefit. Complete abstinence from smoking is the only means of arresting the progression of the disease.     

中草药红背丝绸不同成分对内皮素-1效应拮抗作用的研究

本文用中草药红背丝绸醇提物、乙酸乙脂提取物和单体ＣＡ－１２０１ 三种不同成分对ＥＴ－１ 在动物整体及离体水平生物学效应的拮抗作用进行了研究。结果发现：这三种成分对ＥＴ－１ 致小鼠进行死亡有保护作用，使得小鼠的死亡率及死亡数下降；并可拮抗ＥＴ－１ 致胸主动脉的缩血管效应，醇提物和乙酸乙脂提取物（１０－ ７母液）拮抗ＥＴ 缩血管效应分别为５７．２７％ 和５８．６１％ ；ＣＡ－１２０１ １０－ ８和１０－ ９ Ｍ 亦能拮抗ＥＴ－１ 的缩血管效应；醇提物和乙酸乙脂提取物口服及ＣＡ－１２０１ 静脉注射后能拮抗ＥＴ－１ 的升压作用，拮抗ＥＴ－１ 作用均呈现明显的剂量依赖性。提示中草药红背丝绸不同成分可拮抗ＥＴ－１ 的生物学效应。     

理气类中药对大鼠离体胃平滑肌条的作用

目的：观察理气类中药对大鼠离体胃平滑肌条运动的影响。方法：将肌条放置在灌流肌槽中，用生理记录仪记录肌条的收缩活动。结果：陈皮、枳实对胃各部位平滑肌条均为抑制效应，香附、薤白、木香、柿蒂、乌药对胃底肌条为兴奋效应，但对其他部位肌条则表现为兴奋或抑制不同的效应，沉香仅降低胃窦环行肌收缩波平均振幅，对其他肌条无影响。结论：理气类中药对大鼠离体胃平滑肌条既有兴奋作用，也有抑制作用。
