高糖饮食对小鼠真菌性角膜炎的影响

目的　探究高糖饮食对小鼠真菌性角膜炎的影响。方法　选取健康无眼疾的雄性C57BL/6J小鼠78只，随机分为高糖饮食组和模型对照组，每组36只，模型对照组给予正常饮用水，高糖饮食组给予含体积分数10%果糖溶液，每2 d测量两组小鼠体质量及血糖，10 d后建立真菌性角膜炎模型。造模后24 h、36 h、48 h、72 h、96 h、120 h、168 h裂隙灯显微镜下对角膜进行临床评分并拍照。处死小鼠后，取角膜组织进行HE染色和PAS染色；测定角膜内中性粒细胞和巨噬细胞浸润体积。利用酶联免疫吸附实验对小鼠角膜内的白细胞介素-1β含量进行测定。结果　造模后 0~14 d，两组小鼠体质量与血糖差异均无统计学意义（均为P>0.05）。造模后24 h、36 h、48 h、120 h、168 h，高糖饮食组小鼠角膜临床评分均明显高于模型对照组，差异均有统计学意义（均为P<0.05）。高糖饮食组小鼠角膜穿孔率79.5%，高于模型对照组的40.9%，差异有统计学意义（P=0.000）。造模后各时间点，高糖饮食组中性粒细胞浸润体积均高于模型对照组，差异均有统计学意义（均为P=0.000）。造模后72 h、96 h、120 h、168 h，高糖饮食组巨噬细胞浸润体积均高于模型对照组（均为P=0.000）。角膜组织病理学检查结果示，高糖饮食组炎症反应更重，角膜组织破坏更早且更为严重。造模后24 h、48 h高糖饮食组白细胞介素-1β含量均明显高于模型对照组（均为P<0.05）。结论　高糖饮食加重了真菌性角膜炎感染的严重程度，增强了中性粒细胞、巨噬细胞的趋化，促进了IL-1β的分泌。

猕猴对不同极化方向微波辐射能量吸收的研究

为提供微波辐射安全标准必要的数据，研究了不同极化方向微波辐射能量对猕猴的影响。实验在医学微波无反射室中进行，分为电场，磁场和微波传输方向极化组，辐射频率１ＧＨｚ，用红外热图技术，对暴露在三种极化方向电磁场中猕猴面部各解剖特片部位及胸部在辐射前后进行温度变化的定量分析。     

小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞的conA受体分布及受体介导内吞

本实验利用辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)、胶体金标记法显示小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞(Mφ)表面膜刀豆素A(conA)受体的分布及conA受体介导的吞噬活动。结果显示,conA受体在Mφ膜表面呈均匀分布。随着conA凝集素与Mφ膜表面conA受体作用时间的延长,conA受体介导的内吞活性增强。     

On the physical properties of red cell ghost membranes in the affective disorders and psychoses A fluorescence polarization study

Membrane order was measured in the erythrocyte ghost membranes of DSM-III schizophreniform disorder (SF), DSM-III schizophrenic (SCZ) and DSM-III manic (bipolar) (M) patients and a group of age- and sex-matched controls. Fluorescence polarization with the probe 1,6-diphenyl1-1,3,5-hexatriene was used to determine the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy (r_s). The SF group showed a significant increase in r_s (Δr_s = 0.037) from the control group. Although the means were not significantly different, 3 of 8 Ms and 5 of 8 SCZs also had r_s values > the highest control value. Thermotropic behavior of the membranes was evaluated over the range of 40 to 20°C. No difference among groups in membrane enthalpy was detected. Thus, the differences in r_s appear to be associated with differences in entropy. Phosphatidylcholine (PC) levels, which were known to be abnormal in these patients, were compared with the r_s values. A significant (P < 0.001, R= -0.63) linear correlation between r_s and membrane PC levels was observed. Overall these data further support the view that unusual membrane biophysical factors may occur with high frequency in the psychoses and affective disorders.     

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression and Cyclosporine Toxicity in Renal Allograft Rejection

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on renal function and on development of interstitial fibrosis (IF) in renal allografts. Tubular and interstitial expressions of VEGF and TNF-α, and density of macrophages in the interstitium were examined in 92 patients with nonrejected kidneys, acute rejection (AR), chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN), borderline changes (BC) and acute cyclosporin A (CsA) toxicity. Follow-up biopsy specimens from patients with AR and BC were evaluated for development of IF. A significant difference in tubular and interstitial VEGF expressions was found between patients with AR, BC, CAN and CsA toxicity (p < 0.001). Macrophage infiltration was positively correlated with VEGF and TNF-α expressions (p < 0.001). VEGF expression increased with increasing expression of TNF-α (p < 0.001). Renal function in first 6 months after initial biopsy was better in patients with marked tubular VEGF expression (p < 0.01); however, in follow-up, development of IF and graft loss was found earlier in these patients (p < 0.01 and p < 0.05, respectively). Increased renal VEGF expression has protective properties immediately following renal allograft but allows for increased risk of early IF, and therefore poor graft outcome in the long term.     

Cathodes for fuel cells using proton-conducting Li2SO4–Al2O3 electrolyte

The performances of three widely different cathode materials (Pt, strontium-doped lanthanum manganite (LSM), and NiO) have been compared for use with proton conducting Li₂SO₄–Al₂O₃ composite electrolyte, using H₂S–air and H₂–air fuel cells operating at 600 °C. Surface analysis and electrochemical techniques were used to characterize fresh and used electrode materials. Pt or LSM cathodes each became covered with Li₂SO₄ and Al₂O₃ and, as a consequence, the fuel cells showed poor performance. In contrast, the NiO cathode catalyst did not become covered with Li₂SO₄ and good fuel cell performance was achieved. Exceptionally good current densities of over 100 mA/cm² and power densities of over 30 mW/cm² were obtained for H₂S–air fuel cells having Mo–Ni–S anode catalysts. Slight agglomeration of NiO particles during fuel cell operation had only a minor effect on performance.
