Comparison of gas-liquid chromatography and EMIT assay for serum valproic acid

We describe a simple direct extraction method for the gas-liquid chromatography determination of serum valproic acid. The working range for the assay is 2-180 mg/L and our within-run precision was 5.8 and 4.3% at the 40 and 90 mg/L concentrations respectively. Hemolyzed and lipemic sera as well as samples from patients with hyperbilirubinemia and from patients with decreased renal function were put through the assay and no interfering peaks were noted. Interference occurred when teflon-lined screw caps were used during the extraction step. The method was proven to be accurate by linear regression analysis of samples containing weighed-in amounts of valproic acid. The above assay was compared to an enzyme immunoassay technique (EMIT). The working range for the latter is 10-150 mg/L and the with-run precision was 10.8 and 5.9% and 90 mg/L concentration respectively. Samples were run by both the gas-liquid chromatograph and enzyme immunoassay methods and gave very similar results over the range 16-139 mg/L.     

高分子染料的进展

高分子染料是一类本身固有颜色的高分子化合物，它兼有染料和高聚物的双重性质。因此既可作为色料也可作为高聚物而应用于许多领域。本文较详细阐述了聚合染料的种类，合成方法及应用情况。     

生物化学与细胞生物学课程整合的探讨

为了适应新世纪教学内容和课程体系改革的要求,我校借鉴美国哈佛大学医学院的经验,将生物化学与细胞生物学两门课程整合为“细胞的化学与生物学”。整合后在减少两个学科间重复内容、增加学科间联系、减少学时、早期接触临床、培养学生分析解决问题的能力、创新能力等方面有了很大改进,为这两门课程的改革开辟了新途径。     

Karyotypic evolution in Ph-positive chronic myeloid leukemia in relation to management and disease progression

In a prospective study of 32 patients with chronic myeloid leukemia the frequency of chromosome abnormalities in addition to the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) increased when the disease progressed. Before metamorphosis, 10 patients (31%) had developed additional abnormalities. Such abnormalities were present in three of them at the time of diagnosis; in the other seven, they were detected late in the chronic phase. New clonal abnormalities heralded or accompanied a more malignant phase of the disorder, usually a blastic leukemia. During metamorphosis, 78% of the patients had additional abnormalities, which in 68% of these cases comprised at least one of +8, +22q- or i(17q). Clones with additional abnormalities disappeared in eight cases, either spontaneously or in association with cytostatic therapy during the chronic or blastic phase. Involvement of chromosome #8, usually in the form of a trisomy, was found in 7 of 12 patients treated with busulfan, but was not found in any of the 10 hydroxyurea-treated patients, of whom 8 were splenectomized early during the chronic phase. Cells from the spleen, obtained by fine needle aspiration or splenectomy were cytogenetically examined in 18 cases during the chronic phase, but abnormalities in addition to the Ph were noted in only one patient, who was examined in the late chronic phase. The same abnormalities were present in bone marrow cells of this patient.     

Cytogenetic studies of bone marrow and extramedullary tissues and clinical course during metamorphosis of chronic myelocytic leukemia

Of 33 consecutive patients with chronic myelocytic leukemia, examined during metamorphosis, 82% showed chromosome abnormalities in addition to the Ph1. Aberrations most frequently encountered were +8 (39%), +22q - (30%), and i(17q) (18%). Translocations other than the Ph1 were observed in four cases and - Y clones in four cases. Discrepancies in the cytogenetic pattern between bone marrow and extramedullary tissues or blood were noted in a total of 15 patients. In six cases, transformation occurred in extramedullary organs at a time when it was not present in the marrow. In three cases the bone marrow transformation was preceded by a lymph node blastic infiltrate; in one case, by a skin infiltrate; and in one case, by a subdural blastoma. Clonal abnormalities additional to the Ph1 were identified in the tumor tissue from all these cases. Patients with primary extramedullary transformation tended to have a lower median age at onset of metamorphosis, shorter survival, and higher incidence of chromosome abnormalities than the cases without extramedullary involvement. Patients with only Ph1-positive cells and no other anomalies had a slightly longer duration of metamorphosis and longer total survival. Basophilia and thrombocytopenia were more marked in cases with i(17q) than in the rest of the series.
