临床实验研究发现:1.早产儿40Hz AERP Pa和Pb波潜伏期在三种强度(40,60和80dB-nHL)的短音(500Hz)刺激下明显长于足月新生儿(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001),Pa-Pb波间期未见显著性变化(P>0.05);2.早产儿40Hz AERP Pa和Pb波潜伏期与500Hz短音强度高度相关(r≥0.98),Pb波潜伏期-刺激强度函数斜率K值明显有别于Pa波K值(P<0.01);3.早产儿40Hz AERP Pa和Pb波潜伏期与孕龄高度相关(r>0.7),Pb波潜伏期-孕龄函数斜率K值亦明显区别于Pa波K值(P<0.05)。     

功能性头痛病人脑脊液神经降压素含量的改变

神经降压素(neurotensin,NT)是由13个氨基酸组成的脑肠肽。它广泛分布于哺乳类动物及人的脑内、胃肠道及其它组织中。NT不仅对心血管、消化道及内分泌有重要作用,而且也具有显著的镇痛作用。但是,功能性头痛病人NT含量有否改变,两者是否相关,尚未见报道。为此,我们测定了功能性头痛病人脑脊液NT含量的改变,为进一步探讨NT与该疾病之间的关系提供某些实验依据。     

利用带有原核增强子样序列的新型载体在大肠杆菌中高效表达人α肿瘤坏死因子

将去除信号肽的人肿瘤坏死因子-α(Tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)cDNA插入到带有原核增强子样序列Px的新型表达载体pBV320中,使TNF cDNA 5′端直接置于大肠杆菌trp启动子下游,采用37℃恒温培养,使TNF在大肠杆菌中获得了高效表达,表达活性达1.35(±0.17)×10~6U/L菌液。表达的TNF-α对L929细胞的毒性作用可被抗人肿瘤坏死因子-α的单克隆抗体所中和。表达菌裂解液作SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳,显示有一条分子量与TNF分子量吻合、约为17000道尔顿的蛋白带。利用DEAE-Sepharose阴离子交换层析及Sephacryl S-200凝胶过滤对上述重组人TNF-α进行纯化,获得电泳纯产品,比活性为1.48×10~6U/mg。

几种抗生素对节旋藻生长的抑制

用试管稀释法研究了抗生素对节旋藻抑制的动力学特征,结果表明,大多数抗生素需4—6天时间才对节旋藻表现明显的抑制效果。试验了10种抗生素对7株节旋藻生长的抑制作用,发现对节旋藻的最低抑制浓度分别为(IU/ml):红霉素0.005—0.04;氯霉素0.04—0.08;螺旋霉素0.2—0.8;青霉素0.5—2;利福平4—5;链霉素4—8;四环素10—20;土霉素16—32;庆大霉素10—40;卡那霉素800以上。     

中华眼镜蛇蛇毒因子(CVF)对补体系统的作用及与人补作C_3和其他蛇毒抗原性关系

中华眼镜蛇蛇毒经DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B。HPLC等多次柱层析分离出有抗补体及溶血活性的眼镜蛇蛇毒因子(Cobra venom factor,CVF),纯化后的CVF在聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳图谱上呈单一区带,分子量为225000—230000,等电点为6.20。用二硫苏糖醇还原经SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳得三类亚基,其分子量总和为237,000。 体外抗补体及溶血试验表明,CVF的作用是通过补体旁路途经使总补体活力下降。双向免疫电泳鉴定,发现CVF与人血清作用后,其中补体成分C_3分子的抗原性发生改变,则表明CVF的作用是通过激活补体成分C_3而发挥的。给豚鼠腹腔注射CVF(0.15ug/g体重)后,其血清总补体水平下降到正常值的3％以下,7天后回升,13天后恢复到正常水平。 单相免疫电泳表明,CVF与人补体C_3抗血清间无任何交叉免疫反应,但人血清与CVF抗血清间有微弱的免疫沉淀反应。另外,CVF的氨基酸组成与人补体C_3也较为相似。鉴定还表明眼镜蛇科中四种蛇毒与CVF抗血清有强烈的免疫沉淀反应,蝰蛇毒及海蛇毒也有免疫沉淀反应,但只有眼镜蛇毒具有抗补体活性。     

室旁核在剌激猫肾神经传入纤维引起的血压效应中的应用

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN) and alpha 1 adrenergic receptor of PVN in the pressor responses to stimulation of renal afferent nerve in alpha 1-chloralose-anesthetized cats with carotid sinoaortic denervation and vagotomy. The pressor response to stimulation of renal afferent nerve consisted of a primary and a second components. The primary component response was completely blocked while the second component was not blocked by autonomic blocking agents (hexomethonium and atropine). Bilateral lesions of PVN greatly attenuated the pressor response before and after autonomic blockade. Intracerebroventricular and PVN injection alpha 1, adrenergic antagonist (prazosin) significantly decreased in the pressor response to stimulation of renal afferent nerve. These results indicate that paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus and alpha 1 adrenergic receptors in central nervous system, especially in PVN, play an important role in the pressor responses to stimulation of renal afferent nerve.     

心房钠泵因子对颈动脉窦压力感受器反射的易化作用

Effects of atriopeptin II (APII) on the carotid sinus baroreflex in anesthetized rats and on the sinus nerve afferent activity in the anesthetized rabbits were investigated. The results were as follows: (1) By perfusing the isolated left carotid sinus with APII (1 microgram/ml) in anesthetized rats (n = 10), the threshold pressure (TP) of the carotid baroreflex did not show any change, while the equilibrium pressure (EP), the saturation pressure (SP) and the operating range (OR) were decreased from 101 +/- 2.8 to 95 +/- 2.0 mmHg (P less than 0.05), 202 +/- 5.2 to 168 +/- 6.1 mmHg (P less than 0.001) and 128 +/- 5.5 to 93 +/- 6.3 mmHg (P less than 0.001), respectively. The function curve of the baroreflex was shifted to the left and downward with a peak slope (PS) increased during perfusing with APII. In contrast, by perfusing the carotid sinus with sodium nitroprusside (NP, 0.5 micrograms/ml), TP and EP remained unchanged, whereas SP and OR were increased from 188 +/- 6.4 to 218 +/- 6.0 mmHg (n = 6, P less than 0.01) and from 107 +/- 6.9 to 132 +/- 7.6 mmHg (P less than 0.05), respectively. The function curve of the baroreflex and its PS were not affected by NP. The sinus nerve afferent activity was quite stable with the perfusion of carotid sinus at constant intrasinus pressure (ISP) in the rabbits (n = 6) and increased during the elevation of ISP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

α—人心房钠尿因子对离体豚鼠心肌收缩力和动作电位...

The effect of alpha-hANF on contractile force and action potential duration (APD) of isolated myocardium in guinea pig was investigated. At the level of 20 nmol/L and 40 nmol/L alpha-hANF, the contraction amplitude and rate of contraction phase decreased to a remarkable extent. And at 40 nmol/L, APDs were shortened significantly 20 min after alpha-hANF. The results suggest that there exists a direct inhibitory effect of alpha-hANF on myocardial contractile force and action potential duration.
