CHANGES IN PREJUNCTIONAL POTENCY OF B-HT 933 DURING AGING IN THE RAT VAS DEFERENS

1. Age-related changes in prejunctional alpha 2-adrenoceptors were examined in the rat vas deferens using pharmacological techniques. 2. B-HT 933 (1 x 10(-8) - 1 x 10(-6) mol/L) caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of isometric contractions (tetrodotoxin-sensitive) induced by stimulation with single field-stimulus pulses, in both the epididymal and prostatic regions of rat vas deferens. The concentration-response curve to B-HT 933 was shifted to the right with age in the prostatic regions of the vas deferens. 3. In high concentrations (10(-6) - 3 x 10(-4) mol/L), B-HT 933 caused concentration-dependent enhancement of the contractile response to stimulation and evoked spontaneous contractile activity. No significant difference in this postjunctional activity occurred with age in either the prostatic or epididymal regions of the vas deferens. 4. Schild analysis revealed no significant differences in pA2 values for the antagonisms of the prejunctional inhibitory effect of B-HT 933 by rauwolscine in either the prostatic or epididymal regions of vas deferens between young and old rats. 5. These results could be interpreted as a decrease in alpha 2-adrenoceptor number with age. The more marked decrease in the prejunctional inhibitor potency of B-HT 933 in prostatic regions of vas deferens with aging may be due to a smaller receptor reserve in this region of the vas deferens.     

先天性输精管缺如患者生育问题的研究

自1988年至1991年共收治25例先天性输精管缺如患者,在20例行手术诊治术中15例用自体睾丸精索鞘膜制成人工精池囊,5例又在囊内放置用微涤纶制成的异质管。术中抽吸10例附睾内精子进行快速活化,其中5例活化成功,行人工授精,结果2例怀孕,1例已生育一女孩。认为该症是有生育可能的,但需要解决3个问题:(1)采用显微外科技术把附睾内部活着的精子取出一定数量;(2)选配好快速活化剂使精子快速活化成功;(3)用患者的精浆培养自己的精子。建议对梗阻性无精子症在用手术疏通精路的同时可以采用快速活化精子技术行人工授精,以提高生育的效果。     

华蟾蜍毒素对离体豚鼠输精管的作用

华蟾蜍毒素(华蟾素)使离体豚鼠输精管产生剂量依赖性收缩反应,利血平化豚鼠输精管及冷藏输精管对华蟾素反应减弱。给酚妥拉明、维拉帕米后,输精管对华蟾素反应均受抑制,溴苄胺可使反应潜伏期缩短。结果提示华蟾素收缩输精管反应可能与其促进肾上腺素能神经末稍NA释放有关。     

Characterization of htAKR, a novel gene product in the aldo-keto reductase family specifically expressed in human testis

In human testis, expression of a novel member of the aldo-keto reductase family was identified. Based on its testis-specific expression, we termed this protein human testis aldo-keto reductase (htAKR). In addition to four major isoforms, the existence of multiple alternatively spliced products of htAKR was detected using RT-PCR followed by nested PCR. htAKR was a homologue of mouse liver keto-reductase, AKR1E1, with close similarity in their genomic organizations. htAKR4, the longest isoform, was expressed as a non-fused native form. It exhibited a limited activity toward 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, while no activity toward the steroids or prostaglandins was demonstrated. Using the laser capture microdissection technique and RT-PCR, expression of htAKR was detected in testicular germ cells as well as in interstitial cells. The levels of htAKR mRNA in the tissues obtained from seminoma were much lower than those in normal testes. A significant decline in the htAKR expression was observed when NEC8, a cell line originated from a human testicular germ cell tumour, was exposed to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone. These results indicate that the expression of htAKR, down-regulated in the testicular tumour, is possibly controlled by mitogenic and hormonal signals.     

猕猴输精管内注射高分子聚合物HFMC后对睾丸组织结构的影响

本实验选用具有生育力成年雄性猕猴７只，在直视下行双侧ＨＦＭＣ输精管内注射，每侧剂量分别为３０ｍｇ１只，６０ｍｇ和１００ｍｇ各３只；于注射后２．５年和３．５年分别处死动物，取睾丸组织进行光镜和电镜观察．结果发现：猕猴注射ＨＦＭＣ２．５年后，睾丸光镜大部分曲细精管生精上皮结构完整，排列整齐。仅见局部少数管腔生精上皮层数减少，上皮细胞轻度水样变性等病理改变。电镜下曲细精管内除支持细胞内脂褐素增多，轻度基底膜增厚和精母细胞内质网扩张外，各级生精细胞，支持细胞及细胞间连接复合体等超微结构未见明显异常。注射ＨＦＭＣ３．５年后猕猴的光镜、电镜结果与注射后２．５年结果相似，但局部改变较２．５年组轻。上述结果表明：猕猴输精管内注射一定剂量ＨＦＭＣ节育不会引起睾丸组织的严重病理改变。但是，由于注射ＨＦＭＣ后，ＨＦＭＣ释放Ｈ＋及其对输精管的暂时阻塞，改变了精子生存的内环境，使睾丸出现局部轻度病理改变，随着ＨＦＭＣ逐渐溶解排出，睾丸功能相继恢复正常，配对产仔。为ＨＦＭＣ应用提供了安全性依据。     

Inhibitory effect of adenosine on electrically evoked contractions in the rat vas deferens: pharmacological characterization

The inhibitory effects of adenosine as well as its related analogues on the contractile response of the rat vas deferens to field stimulation were compared in the absence and in the presence of nitrobenzylthioguanosine (NBTGR), a potent adenosine uptake inhibitor. In the presence of NBTGR, the order of potency was N6-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA) greater than or equal to L-N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (L-PIA) greater than 2-chloroadenosine greater than D-N6-phenylisopropyladenosine (D-PIA) greater than or equal to adenosine greater than 2'-deoxyadenosine. The inhibitory effect of adenosine but not that of clonidine, beta-endorphin and somatostatin was blocked by 1,3-diethyl-8-phenylxanthine (DPX, pA2 = 7.2), a potent P1-purinergic antagonist. The results suggest that adenosine inhibited the electrically evoked contractions of the rat vas deferens via the activation of the A1 subtype of P1-purinergic receptors.
