Hormone exposure and its suppressive effect on risk of high-grade gliomas among patients with breast cancer

BackgroundPrior reports demonstrate the expression of estrogen and progesterone receptors in high-grade gliomas (HGGs), but the relationship between hormone receptor-positive disease and risk of HHGs in patients with breast cancer (BC) remains uncharacterized.MethodsUsing the SEER 18 registries (2000–2017), we examined the temporal trend of the incidence of HGGs and BC. The standardized incidence ratio was calculated to assess the risk of subsequent HGG in BC patients.ResultsDuring the study period, the incidence of BC and HGGs remained comparable for men and women. Among 976,134 patients with BC, we found a decreased incidence of HGGs in females, but not in males. Female BC patients with hormone receptor-positive disease were at a lower risk of developing glioblastoma and anaplastic astrocytoma.ConclusionOur study findings allude to the protective role of hormone exposure in the development of HGGs, which may lead to the development of therapies targeting hormonal pathways.     

关于抑制素的回顾与展望

1923年,随着生殖腺反馈调节垂体功能的概念的提出,关于抑制素的研究开始了。抑制素是一种非类固醇类物质,能够抑制垂体细胞的活性。1932年,这种物质在水状的睾丸提取物中得到证实,并被命名为抑制素。又经过了50多年的研究,到1985年,抑制素才被纯化和克隆。而直到化验技术的进步使人和动物的循环浓度得以分析,抑制素的生理活性的揭示才得以完成。本文综述抑制素的历史、生理作用及其在辅助生殖技术中的最新的应用和研究。     

Long-term effect of estradiol implants on the female urinary tract during the climacteric

The incidence of lower urinary tract dysfunction increases during the climacteric, and there is embryological, biochemical and epidemiologic evidence to suggest that depleted estrogen status is at least partially responsible. Twelve climacteric women underwent full assessment before and 1 year after treatment with a 50 mg subcutaneous estradiol implant +5 mg norethisterone for 7 days per month. Assessment consisted of a symptoms questionnaire, midstream urine sample, uroflowmetry, videocystourethrography with pressure flow studies, and urethral pressure profilometry. Subjectively, only the symptom of nocturia significantly improved. There was no change in flow variables but there was a significant decrease in residual urine and the degree of bladder base descent. Cystometric capacity was slightly but significantly decreased, and two patients developed genuine stress incontinence whilst on treatment. Nonetheless, there was a significant improvement in urethral pressures at rest but not under stress. This effect was predominantly in the proximal urethra. These data do not support the contention that estrogen replacement therapy is beneficial for lower urinary tract dysfunction during the climacteric.     

类保幼激素对三带喙库蚊幼期发育的影响

本文报告用亚致死剂量的 S—31183(类保幼激素)处理三带喙库蚊幼虫对其发育影响的研究,结果表明处理后蛹期死亡率明显高于幼虫期,并且与剂量大小有关。S—31183处理幼虫并不影响幼虫的发育时间,但可使幼虫化蛹时蜕皮受阻与羽化受到一定的抑制。     

激素替代治疗对绝经后Ⅱ型糖尿病和高血压患者肾脏微血管病变的影响

目的 :探讨激素替代治疗对绝经后Ⅱ型糖尿病和高血压患者肾脏微血管病变的影响。方法 :36例患有Ⅱ型糖尿病和高血压的绝经后妇女随机分为治疗组和安慰剂组各 18例 ,采用双盲法予口服克龄蒙或安慰剂 1片 /日 ,共 4 5个周期 ,测量用药前后各参数值并进行比较及线性相关分析。结果 :治疗组用药前后 2 4小时尿蛋白定量由 ( 0 4 45± 0 0 36 )g降到 ( 0 36 1± 0 0 32 ) g(P <0 0 1) ,内生肌酐清除率由 ( 92 0± 5 2 )ml/min增到 ( 99 1± 4 8)ml/min (P <0 0 5) ,空腹血糖由 ( 7 0 2± 0 4 3)mmol/L降到 ( 6 55± 0 31)mmol/L(P <0 0 5) ,血清总胆固醇由 ( 6 6 6±0 2 8)mmol/L降到 ( 5 71± 0 71)mmol/L(P <0 0 1) ,血压无明显改变。 2 4小时尿蛋白定量和内生肌酐清除率与其他参数间无显著相关性。安慰剂组用药前后各项指标无明显改变。结论 :激素替代治疗对绝经后Ⅱ型糖尿病和高血压患者肾脏微血管病变有改善作用     

增产菊胺酯对雄性小鼠生殖激素的影响

为了探讨增产菊胺酯引起小鼠精了生成障碍的可能机理，本文研究了增产菊胺酯对雄性小鼠卵泡刺激素（ＦＳＨ）、黄体生成素（ＬＨ）及睾酮（Ｔ）的影响。小鼠经口染毒，隔天一次，连续１０次，第３５天处死。检验因清ＦＳＨ、ＬＨ没有明显变化，而睾丸组织睾酮含量出现剂理依赖性降低，高剂量组与对照组比较有显著性差异（Ｐ〈０．０５），结果表明，增产菊胺酯不影响ＦＳＨ、ＬＨ，而影响Ｔ的合成和分泌。这可能是增产菊胺酯对小鼠精     

青海玉树健康人甲状腺激素测定

本文对玉树(海拔3700米)正常人58例的甲状腺激素用放射免疫法进行了测定,与西宁地区和平原地区对比,结果说明玉树地区T3、T4值明显或显著低于西宁和平原地区。TSH值又明显或显著高于西宁和平原地区、西宁地区P3、T4和TSH值均明显或显著低于平原。玉树地区藏、汉之间;男、女之间也有一定差异。这可能是高原低气压,缺氧对肝脏代谢的影响,调节甲状腺激素,以求机体对高原坏境的适应。     

Inhibitory effect of fluoride on the secretion of insulin

Summary The oral administration of sodium fluoride (NaF) (40 μmol/100 body weight [bw]) to fasting rats produced an immediate fall in insulin levels and the consequent increase in glycemia. These phenomena were observed with plasma fluoride concentrations 5–15 μM. Glycemia and insulin returned to normal levels within 4–5 hours, together with the washing out of fluoride from plasma and soft tissues. The insulin secretion of isolated Langerhans islets, perifused with solutions containing 5, 10, or 20 μM fluoride, was found to be significantly inhibited as a function of fluoride levels, both with basal and stimulatory concentrations of glucose. One hour after the intake of 60 mg of NaF, fasting human volunteers showed increased fluoride (5–15 μM) together with a significant fall of plasma insulin levels.     

50例正常生育力男子精液和血液激素的一年动态观察

作者对南京市50名正常男子,每月1次、连续12个月测定了精液常规、某些精液生化和血清激素水平。结果表明:精子密度每次之间波动范围较大,冬季数值比夏季显著为高(P<0.01)。其它指标包括正常形态精子、活动精子、前向运动级别、精液果糖、硷性磷酸酶、酸性磷酸酶及血清,FSH LH T 则变动不显著。精液常规中除精子密度和各参数关系不明显外,所有其它参数之间呈正相关;但精液常规、精液生化和血清激素三者互不相关。从本组研究结果,作者提出了南京市正常男子这些指标的参考正常值。
