银额果蝇的B染色体研究 2.昆明群体的生活力和B染色体的关系

本文分析了钮额果蝇的生活力和B染色体的关系。结果表明,银额果蝇的B染色体在其生长和发育过程中具双重性调节作用。一方面,B染色体以单一的形式存在于单雌系核型中,即1B或2Bs,可刺激生长、发育,增强生活力。另一方面,在单雌系的细胞中存在多条B染色体,并形成核型多态性,这似乎对生长和发育又有一定的抑制作用而减弱其生活力。     

Sensitization of low-dose-rate irradiation by nonlethal hyperthermia

To assess whether hyperthermia could radiosensitize cells irradiated at a low dose rate, Chinese hamster V79 cells were simultaneously heated and irradiated at 0.86 Gy/h. The data showed that heat treatments at 39 and 40 degrees C, which did not induce heat killing alone or high-dose-rate radiosensitization, resulted in enhanced cell killing with low-dose-rate irradiation. The dose-modification factor (ratio of the slopes of the curves for low dose rate and high dose rate) was reduced to 1.8 at 39 degrees C and 1.4 at 40 degrees C, compared to a value of 2.1 at 37 degrees C. These data indicate that nonlethal heat treatments can cause enhanced radiosensitization under low-dose-rate conditions. The implications of these results for interstitial thermoradiotherapy are discussed.     

Changes in pulmonary Cu−Zn contents in superior mesenteric artery occlusion shock of rabbit

Contents of Cu and Zn of into-pulmonary blood (IPB), out-pulmonary blood (OPB), Lung tissue, and supernatant and macrophages of Lung Lavage were determined in superior mesenteric artery occlusion (SMAO) shock of rabbits. Zn of pulmonary tissue was 11.42 +/- 0.60 and 14.52 +/- 1.78 (micrograms/g wet wt) in SMAO shock and control groups, respectively. Content of Zn was found to be lower, Cu was not changed, and Cu/Zn ratio increased in lung tissue in SMAO shock. Contents of Cu and Zn in other samples were not changed. The results suggest that lower Zn in lung tissue related to acute lung injury.     

Randomised controlled trial of short term treatment to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in patients with duodenal ulcer.

OBJECTIVE--To determine whether one week''s drug treatment is sufficient to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in patients with duodenal ulcer. DESIGN--Single blind, randomised controlled trial. SETTING--Specialised ulcer clinic in a teaching hospital. PATIENTS--155 patients with H pylori and a duodenal ulcer verified endoscopically which had either bled within the previous 24 hours or was causing dyspepsia. INTERVENTIONS--Patients were allocated randomly to receive either omeprazole for four weeks plus bismuth 120 mg, tetracycline 500 mg, and metronidazole 400 mg (all four times a day) for the first week (n = 78), or omeprazole alone for four weeks (n = 77). Further endoscopy was performed four weeks after cessation of all drugs. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Presence or absence of H pylori (by urease testing, microscopy, and culture of antral biopsy specimens), duodenal ulcer, and side effects. RESULTS--Eradication of H pylori occurred in 70 (95%) patients taking the four drugs (95% confidence interval 86% to 97%) compared with three (4%) patients taking omeprazole alone (1% to 11%). Duodenal ulcers were found in four (5%) patients taking the four drugs (2% to 12%) and in 16 (22%) patients taking omeprazole alone (14% to 32%). Mild dizziness was the only reported side effect (six patients in each group) and did not affect compliance. CONCLUSIONS--A one week regimen of bismuth, tetracycline, and metronidazole is safe and effective in eradicating H pylori and reduces the number of duodenal ulcers four weeks after completing treatment.     

高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为

本文对高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为进行了多指标测定,结果显示,高脂组与正常组相比红细胞聚集能力增强,变形能力及膜流动性下降,表明高脂血症可能较易导致血栓形成。中药有效成分8501有对抗高脂引起的红细胞上述改变的作用,提示8501可能对血栓和动脉粥样硬化斑块形成有防治作用。     

云南羯布罗香树脂的化学成分

从云南产羯布罗香(Dipterocarpus tubinatus Gaertn. f.)树脂中分离得到6个三萜化合物,鉴定为羟基达玛烯酮—Ⅱ(hydroxydammarenone-Ⅱ,达玛烯二醇—Ⅱ(dammarenediol—Ⅱ),白桦脂酸(betulonk acid),亚细亚酸(asiatic acid),3,23-O-异丙叉亚细亚酸(3,23-O-isopropylidene asiatic acid)和崩大碗酸(madasiatic acid)。其中崩大碗酸系首次从龙脑香科树脂中分离得到。     

银额果蝇的B染色体研究:1.昆明群体的Bs数目和频率

本研究发现银额果蝇昆明群体有丝分裂中期核型中存在B染色体,出现频率为69.1%。目前,在已研究过的来自各个地区的银额果蝇中,昆明群体的B染色体频率最高。B染色体数目为1-6条。该群体内单雌系间的B染色体数目不同,个体间和细胞间的B染色体数目也不同。在核型中,B染色体最小,形态稳定,点状,C-带和G-带呈阳性。     

大鼠离体乳头肌收缩末期张力—长度关系的曲线性

大鼠离体左室乳头肌固定于最适初长位,逐步递减“后荷”获得一系列等张收缩的张力、长度缩短程度和速度。结果发现:(1)收缩末期张力-长度关系(ESTLR)为指数曲线,回归方程 T=ar~(-bL)-K 拟合的优度明显高于线性方程拟合的优度(P<0.001),其中 a,k 分别代表总张力和静息张力,b 为曲线的弯曲度;(2)在高钙(4mmol/L)或去甲肾上腺素(NE10~(-6)mol/L)作用下,ESTLR 右上移位,a,b 和无张力缩短速度 L_O 均增大(P均<0.01),尤以高钙时的变化更明显,(3)NE 使张力-速度曲线的右上移位比高钙显著。这提示大鼠离体心肌的 ESTLR 呈非线性特征,参数 a,b 及长度轴截距 L_O 对收缩强度的变化敏感,但对收缩速度改变的敏感性可能比经典的力学指标低。     

大鼠中枢神经系统衰老的形态学研究Ⅳ.大脑皮质锥体细胞树突棘的数量变化

用6、12与31个月的雄性Wistar大鼠的大脑Krieg 2、3区皮质,对其V层大锥体细胞的五段50μm长度内的树突棘做形态学定量研究。在Golgi法的切片中共计数了三个年龄组的151个细胞的725段树突的棘密度。结果表明,老年大鼠比成年和青年大鼠的棘密度普遍下降。其中以基树突与侧树突棘度下降最显著(减少24％左右),顶树突只中段有明显减少。老年大鼠锥体细胞还常出现胞体、树突及其分支的明显形态改变。
