蓝斑核对上呼吸道阻力肌—颏舌肌功能的影响

本实验在３８只经氨基甲酸乙酯麻醉的健康家兔上进行,观察了电、化学刺激蓝斑核（ＬＣ）对颏舌肌功能的影响。结果如下：（１）长串电脉冲刺激蓝斑核使颏舌肌肌电活动明显增强,表现为长吸性肌电积分幅度升高,膈肌亦出现与颏舌肌同步的肌电活动增强。（２）ＬＣ内微量注射胞体兴奋剂谷氨酸钠,也引起明显的颏舌肌和膈肌肌电活动增强。（３）上述电、化学刺激的区域对照和盐水对照实验,均未出现有意义的肌电改变。提示：电、化学刺激ＬＣ可特异性增强上呼吸道阻力肌──颏舌肌的紧张性活动,具有减小上呼吸道阻力的作用,这对于某些上呼吸道阻塞性疾病发病机制的研究可能具有重要的意义。

Histopathological studies ofSporothrix schenckii-inoculated mice

Defense mechanisms againstSporothrix schenckii were studied using mouse models. After an intracutaneous injection of the yeast form ofS. schenckii to the dorsal skin of the congenitally athymic nude and normal heterozygote littermate mice, nodules were formed. They regressed and disappeared in 10 weeks in the case of normal mice. On the other hand, nodules and then ulceration developed progressively in nude mice until all animals expired by dissemination of microorganisms at the 11th week of inoculation. Histopathologically the migrated cells were similar in both the normal and the nude mice, particularly during the early phase (within 24 h), with infiltration by PMNs being predominant. Fragmentation ofS. schenckii commenced early during the 12–24 h stage of inoculation in the normal mice, while such fragmentation was scarce in nude mice even though numerous PMNs accumulated. Microscopic observations in the early stages (within 24 h of inoculation) suggested that the lack of killing activity by PMNs in nude mice contributes more to the impaired defense than the lack of macrophage activation by T-cells.     

Antibody raised against extracellular proteinases ofSporothrix schenckii inS. schenkii inoculated hairless mice

Sporothrix schenckii produces two extracellular proteinases, namely proteinase I and II. Proteinase I is a serine proteinase, inhibited by chymostatin, while proteinase II is an aspartic proteinase, inhibited by pepstatin. Studies on substrate specificity and the effect of proteinase inhibitors on cell growth suggest an important role for these proteinases in terms of fungal invasion and growth. There has, however, been no evidence presented demonstrating thatS. schenckii produces 2 extracellular proteinases in vivo. In order to substantiate the in vivo production of proteinases and to attempt a preliminary serodiagnosis of sporotrichosis, serum antibodies against 2 proteinases were assayed usingS. schenckii inoculated hairless mice. Subsequent to an intracutaneous injection ofS. schenckii to the mouse skin, nodules spontaneously formed and disappeared for a period of 4 weeks. Histopathological examination results were in accordance with the microscopic observations. Micro-organisms disappeared during the fourth week. Serum antibody titers against purified proteinases I and II were measured weekly, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (EIA). As a result, the time course of the antibody titers to both proteinases I and II were parallel to that of macroscopic and microscopic observations in an experimental mouse sporotrichosis model. These results suggest thatS. schenckii produces both proteinases I and II in vivo. Moreover, the detection of antibodies against these proteinases can contribute to a serodiagnosis of sporotrichosis.     

地衣芽孢杆菌2709碱性蛋白酶编码序列的PCR扩增、克隆及序列测定

在地衣芽孢杆菌NCIB 6816菌株碱性蛋白酶基因已知序列的基础上,通过设计合适的引物,利用PCR(Polymerase Chain Reaction)技术从地衣芽孢杆菌2709菌株的柒色体DNA中扩增了2709碱性蛋白酶的编码序列。对两个克隆的PCR片段的全序列分析结果显示,2709碱性蛋白酶的编码序列同相应的NCIB 6816序列相比有3％左右的碱基组成差异。由此推定的2709碱性蛋白酶的氨基酸序列肯定了2709碱性蛋白酶属典型的subtilisin Carlsberg类,同时还表明来源于不同地衣芽孢杆菌菌株的subtilisin Carlsberg存在着若干氨基酸组成上的差异。
