蜂桶寨自然保护区中华姬鼠和社鼠肥满度的研究

我们于2008年4~11月对四川蜂桶寨自然保护区内中华姬鼠(Apodemus draco)和社鼠(Niviventer confucianus)肥满度在各年龄组及不同季节中的变化进行了研究,并初步分析了影响因素。结果显示：中华姬鼠肥满度在各年龄组中的性别差异不明显;在各年龄组间的差异显著,其变化趋势为老年组＞成年组＞亚成年组＞幼年组,亚成年组及老年组肥满度在各季节间无显著差异,而成年组则差异明显。社鼠肥满度在各年龄组间无显著性差异,亚成年组肥满度在各季节间差异显著,同时成年组及老年组肥满度在季节间无显著差异;二物种,亚成年组、成年组及老年组肥满度与海拔无明显的线性关系。分析认为,繁殖期能量的消耗的增加可能导致中华姬鼠肥满度在繁殖期下降,而社鼠成年及老年个体面对食物资源、能量需求等方面的季节变化,能够通过相应的调节,维持肥满度的稳定。     

不同温湿度条件下飞虱虫疠霉对桃蚜生殖力和内禀增长力的影响

对7日龄桃蚜 Myzus persicae用高剂量飞虱虫疠霉Pandora delphacis接种后,饲养于不同温(10～30℃)、湿(74%～100%RH)度组合条件下观察其生殖力及内禀增长力(r_m) 的变化。结果表明,被接种个体生殖力比对照显著降低,且下降幅度受温度、湿度及温湿互作的影响。在各处理组合中,尤其以20～30℃和95%～100%RH的条件下下降更为明显。各处理r_m在不同温度间差异显著,均随温度呈抛物线形变化,25℃下达最高,但不同湿度间差异不显著。与对照相比,被接种蚜的r_m>除10℃与各湿度组合间无显著差异外,其余温湿组合下均显著低于对照。上述分析表明,飞虱虫疠霉的侵染能显著影响桃蚜生殖力及r_m,尤其是在桃蚜繁殖的最适温度范围内效果最为明显。

Characterization of PPD protein antigens in whole cell lysates of Mycobacterium bovis BCG

The low molecular mass protein antigens in PPD from M. bovis BCG were chemically oligomerized using sulfosuccinimidyl-4-(p-maleimidophenyl)-butyrate (S-SMPB) as a crosslinking agent. Protein oligomers with molecular mass over 90 kDa were obtained and used for the preparation of hyperimmune polyclonal rabbit antiserum. Using this antiserum four protein bands with molecular mass 120, 90, 75 and 65 kDA were detected in immunoblotting analysis of sonic extract from M. bovis BCG separated in SDS-polyacrylamide gel. We suggest that these immunoreactive proteins in the sonic extract represent the native forms of the heat stable low molecular mass protein antigens in PPD.     

Immunotherapy of bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma by repeated intralesional injections of live bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) or BCG cell walls

Summary Thirty cows of the Dutch Friesian and the Maas-Rijn-Ijssel breed with histologically confirmed ocular squamous cell carcinoma were treated by repeated intralesional injection of live bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) (n = 14) or a BCG cell-wall vaccine (n = 16). Complete regression of the primary tumour was observed in 64% and 57% of the animals respectively. In the 2-year follow-up period there was no recurrence of primary tumours. This sharply contrasts with the recurrence frequency (40%–50%) after complete remission induced by a single intralesional injection with BCG, observed in an earlier study. In 1 animal a new primary tumour developed. At necropsy metastases were present in 33% of the treated animals: in 3 of 17 animals that showed complete regression of the primary tumour and in 7 of 13 animals with partial regression or progressive disease. This did not differ significantly from results obtained after a single treatment (27%). Delayed-type hypersensitivity toM. bovis purified protein derivative (PPD) was more persistent in animals showing regression of the primary tumour than in non-responding animals. Of the animals with a positive PPD response 6 months after treatment, 79% showed tumour regression. Regression was observed in only 28% of the animals not responding to PPD after the same period of time. In conclusion: (a) recurrence of the primary tumour was not observed after repeated BCG treatment; (b) the frequency of metastases was not decreased compared to results obtained with a single treatment; (c) regression was correlated with a positive delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction to PPD (P <0.05) 6 months after treatment; (d) no significant differences were observed when the clinical results of treatment with live BCG and the BCG cell wall vaccine were compared.     

Effects of recombinant cholera toxin b subunit (rCTB) on cellular immune responses: enhancement of delayed-type hypersensitivity following intranasal co-administration of Mycobacterium bovis-BCG with rCTB

Recombinant cholera toxin B subunit (rCTB) is a safe and potent mucosal adjuvant. To gain insight into the mechanism underlying the adjuvant effect of rCTB, the effects of rCTB on cell-mediated immune responses of mice and guinea pigs were examined after intranasal administration of Mycobacterium bovis -bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) with and without rCTB. Delayed-type hypersensitivity, for skin reactions in guinea pigs and for footpad swelling reactions in mice, to purified protein derivative (PPD) were enhanced by intranasal co-administration of BCG and rCTB, as compared to giving BCG alone to these animals. Moreover, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interferon (IFN)-gamma production of spleen cells and antigen specific spleen cell proliferation, stimulated with PPD, were enhanced in the presence of rCTB. These results strongly suggest that rCTB enhances cellular as well as humoral immune responses.     

Screening and Assessing 11 Mycobacterium tuberculosis Proteins as Potential Serodiagnostical Markers for Discriminating TB Patients from BCG Vaccinees

Purified protein derivative (PPD) skin tests often yield poor specificity, so that to develop new serological antigens for distinguishing between Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection and Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccination is a priority, especially for developing countries like China. We predicted the antigenicity for selected open reading frames (ORFs) based on the genome sequences of M. tuberculosis H37Rv and M. bovis BCG, as well as their functions and differences of expression under different stim...

Immune responses of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) to Mycobacterium bovis BCG vaccination

The objective was to evaluate cellular immune response of captive white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) to live Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette Guerin (BCG) vaccination and to determine diagnostic implications of these responses. In vitro proliferative and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) responses to M. bovis purified protein derivative (PPD) were detected beginning 9 days postvaccination. Responses to Mycobacterium avium PPD, however, generally exceeded responses to M. bovis PPD. Interferon-gamma responses to M. avium PPD were not detected prior to vaccination nor in nonvaccinated deer, suggesting that vaccination with BCG boosted prior quiescent M. avium-sensitized cells. Both CD4+ and gammadelta T cells from vaccinated deer proliferated in response to M. bovis PPD stimulation. Intradermal administration of M. bovis PPD resulted in increases in skin thickness of vaccinated deer beginning 24 hr postinjection. Such early reactions were characterized by edema and minimal mononuclear cell infiltration, whereas later reactions (i.e., 72 hr postinjection) were more typical of delayed type hypersensitivity. Upon in vitro activation with pokeweed mitogen, CD44 expression increased and CD62L expression decreased on lymphocytes from deer regardless of vaccination status. Likewise, M. bovis PPD stimulation of lymphocytes from vaccinated deer resulted in increases in CD44 expression and decreases in CD62L expression. These findings demonstrate the potential of BCG vaccination to elicit strong cell-mediated immune responses and appropriate alterations in CD44 and CD62L expression with in vitro stimulation of white-tailed deer lymphocytes. In relation to M. bovis diagnosis, vaccination of white-tailed deer with BCG can induce skin test responses that classify the animal as a tuberculosis reactor. In contrast, BCG vaccination will likely not interfere with tuberculosis testing by the IFN-gamma assay.     

Cell-mediated response to BCG investigated by leukocyte migration test from an agarose droplet

The modified leukocyte migration test (LMT) from an agarose droplet with the antigen stimulation (by BCG) is proposed in the present work. The BCG concentrations ranging from 1.25 up to 130 mg/l were used to examine 20 tuberculin (PPD) skin test negative and 10 PPD positive patients, which suffered from lung diseases. The optimal concentrations were 6.25 and 25.0 mg/l. The mean index values of a 20 membered control group ranged from 0.7 up to 0.88 when stimulated with the lower BCG concentration, and they were of 0.53 up to 0.69 at higher BCG concentration. In spite of its suitable indicatory properties as to ascertain cell mediated immunity state, the LMT with the BCG were of no use as a tuberculin skin test correlate.     

Immune reactivity in cattle with ocular squamous cell carcinoma after intralesional BCG immunotherapy

Summary Lymphocyte stimulation with Con A and specific immune reactivity to BCG (antibody formation to BCG and DTH reaction to PPD) were determined in BCG-treated, surgically treated and untreated cows with ocular squamous cell carcinoma. In tumor-bearing cows the Con A-induced proliferation of lymphocytes was reduced when compared to healthy controls. This suppression consisted of a reduced blastogenic response to Con A of lymphocytes from tumor-bearing cows, and the presence of a factor in the sera of these animals, as these sera suppressed the blastogenic response of lymphocytes from healthy cows. BCG had only a minor influence on the suppressive activity. Antibodies to BCG were demonstrated in 50% of the BCG-treated animals. The formation of antibodies was not influenced by intradermal injection of PPD of Mycobacterium bovis. Absorption of a BCG antibody containing serum with BOSCC tumor extracts did not reveal the existence of cross reacting antigens between BCG and BOSCC. Pretherapeutic and posttherapeutic Con A reactivity could not be correlated with clinical response. Of the 30 BCG treated cows 29 developed a positive DTH reaction to PPD. Correlation between clinical response and immune reactivity was seen only with regard to the DTH reaction to PPD: this reaction remained positive for a longer period after treatment in animals with a favorable clinical outcome than in nonresponding animals.Animals were maintained under the guidelines laid down by the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, State University, Utrecht, The NetherlandsGrant recipient of the Koningin Wilhelmina Fonds (Netherlands Cancer Foundation) Abbreviations used: BCG, Bacillus Calmette-Guerin; BOSCC, bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma PBL peripheral blood leukocytes; PPD, purified protein derivative of Mycobacteria; DTH, delayed type hypersensitivity Con A, concanavalin A; PHA, phytohemagglutinin; PWM, pokeweed mitogen     

Tumour-cell-induced production of tumour necrosis factor by monocytes of gastric cancer patients receiving BCG immunotherapy

Summary Human peripheral blood monocytes cocultured with tumour cells were used as an in vitro model of in situ interactions between tumour-infiltrating macrophages and the tumour. Tumour cells stimulated de novo expression of the human tumour necrosis factor (TNF) gene in monocytes and caused the release of TNF into the culture supernatant. A group of 14 patients with stage IVA gastric cancer receiving adjuvant chemotherapy (5-FU, Adriamycin, mitomycin C: FAM) or immunochemotherapy (BCG+FAM) was investigated for the ability of monocytes to produce TNF in vitro upon stimulation with tumour cells or purified protein derivative of tuberculin (PPD). Patients were followed at biweekly intervals, i.e. before each instillation of BCG epicutaneously over a period of 10 weeks. It was found that monocytes of some patients receiving BCG at the end of the observation period had an enhanced ability to produce TNF following stimulation with tumour cells. In contrast, such production was not substantially altered during the study period in patients on chemotherapy. PPD-induced TNF production was much weaker and was not significantly changed during this observation time. We infer that BCG immunotherapy may induce the subtle changes in some cancer patients that lead to an increased interaction between monocytes and tumour cells and result in enhanced production of cytokine(s) with antitumour properties.
