人脊髓创伤后神经元病变的神经丝免疫组织化学研究

本文用神经丝（ＮＦ）免疫组织化学方法在１５例人体尸检材料中研究了脊髓创伤后生存２ｈ～９Ｗ的脊髓神经元胞体和轴突的病理学改变。结果表明：脊髓创伤后２ｈ,神经丝免疫组织化学反应即可显示ＮＦ阳性反应产物在轴突内聚集。创伤后第４天,病变的前角运动神经元胞体内神经丝反应异常地增强。以上结果表明：神经丝免疫组织化学方法比常规显示轴突的染色方法能更早更清晰地显示脊髓内轴突的病变,并进一步证实了创伤后细胞骨架紊乱在神经元的病理发病机理中起重要作用。     

Intra- and interobserver concordance in scoring Harris lines: A test on bone sections and radiographs

Little attention has been devoted to assessing the reproducibility of (paleo)pathological observations. Harris lines (HL) are among the markers most used to determine chronology of stresses suffered during growth. Nevertheless, their scoring entails remarkable methodological difficulty. Bone sections (S) and radiographs (R) of 29 adult tibiae of archeological provenance (medieval) were scored for HL by five observers. At regular intervals of time, each observer gave two independent counts on both series. Results show a) a substantial interobserver disagreement of HL estimates for both sectional and radiographic records, and b) a high level of intraobserver error. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

The effect of homocysteine thiolactone and its alpha methylated derivative on bone matrix in the mouse

Summary Homocysteine (HC) is a radiation protector but toxic to bone. Its derivative homocysteine thiolactone (HCTL) and the alpha-alkylated analogue (A-methyl-HCTL) was fed to mice for a period of six weeks in a daily dose of 50 mg/kg body weight. Parameters for bone matrix as collagen content, acid solubility of bone collagen, urinary bone collagen cross links (pyridinolines) and urinary acid glycosaminoglycans were determined. Urinary acid glycosaminoglycans were significantly reduced in the HCTL treated group but not in the alpha-methyl-homocysteine thiolactone (A-methyl-HCTL) group (controls: 45 ± 7 mg/mmol creatinine, homocysteine thiolactone 38 ± 5 mg/mmol creatinine, A-methyl HCTL 45 ± 6 mg/mmol creatinine).No differences were found for the parameters of bone collagen between the groups. The potent radiation protecting methylated derivative therefore did not change bone matrix and should be a candidate for further toxicological studies.     

Circulating concentrations of interleukin-6 in cancer patients and their pathogenic role in tumor-induced hypercalcemia

Circulating interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations correlate with disease activity in severe inflammatory conditions, in sepsis and in some hematological malignancies. On the other hand, IL-6 is a potent stimulator of osteoclastogenesis and has been implicated as a contributory factor in the genesis of osteopenic conditions. We measured circulating IL-6 levels by a sensitive (detection limit of 10 U/ml) and specific bioassay in 103 patients with advanced cancer, including 41 with tumor-induced hypercalcemia before any specific hypocalcemic therapy. We related IL-6 concentrations to clinical features and to biochemical parameters of bone metabolism, including blood Ca, Ca²⁺, P_i, intact parathyroid hormone, parathyroid hormone-related protein, osteocalcin, 1,25-(OH)₂-vitamin D and, as markers of bone resorption, the fasting urinary excretion of calcium (Ca/creatinine) and hydroxyproline. IL-6 levels were increased, i.e. detectable, in 23% of the patients, 8/41 (20%) hypercalcemic and 16/62 (26%) normocalcemic patients (NS); the distribution of the values was similar in the two groups. The presence of increased IL-6 concentrations was not related to any clinical characteristic, notably not to the survival nor to the existence of bone metastases, whether in hypercalcemic or normocalcemic patients; e.g., only 3/12 (25%) hypercalcemic subjects without bone metastases had elevated IL-6 levels. We found no significant correlations between IL-6 concentrations and any of the biochemical parameters studied. Hypercalcemic subjects with increased IL-6 had higher urinary Ca/creatinine levels than patients with normal IL-6 levels (P<0.005) but this was not the case in normocalcemic subjects. Mean concentrations of inflammatory or other bone metabolism markers were not significantly different between patients with normal or with elevated IL-6 levels. In summary, circulating IL-6 levels were increased in 23% of 103 patients with advanced cancer, but the frequency of increased IL-6 concentrations was not related to the presence of hypercalcemia or to any marker of calcium metabolism or bone turnover. The pathogenic importance of circulating IL-6 in patients with solid tumors remains to be demonstrated and our data indicate that increased circulating levels of IL-6, possibly reflecting the activation of the immune system, only contribute in a minor way to the osteolytic process in patients with tumor-induced hypercalcemia.     

乙型肝炎病毒(HBV)体内外对单个核细胞白细胞介素-1和白细胞介素-2诱生活性影响的研究

本研究用PAP法、胸腺细胞增殖法、脾细胞增殖法,分别检测16例体外HBV感染的骨髓单个核细胞与16例慢性乙型肝炎患者体内感染的骨髓单个核细胞(MNCs)中的HBcAg和白细胞介素-1(IL-1)、白细胞介素-2(IL-2)的诱生活性(以△cpm值表示)。结果显示,体外HBV感染组与体内HBV感染组骨髓MNCs中HBcAg检出率分别为50％和43.7％。本实验结果表明,HBV在体外感染骨髓MNCs,且与体内自然感染相符,但光镜下未观察到致细胞病变效应(CPE)。体外感染组与体内感染组IL-I和IL-2活性均较对照组明显下降(P<0.01)。且细胞中HBcAg检出阳性者较阴性者下降更为明显(P<0.01)。IL-1和IL-2诱生活性降低与HBV侵染免疫细胞及其在细胞内复制有密切关系,从而提示,IL-1和IL-2降低可能影响HBV的清除而引起慢性化过程。

摘要 目的：探讨绝经后骨质疏松症患者血清白细胞衍生趋化因子2（LECT2）水平的临床意义及其预测价值。方法：选择2020年1月～2022年1月湖南师范大学第一附属医院收治的绝经后骨质疏松症患者125例作为研究组,另选取同期体检的绝经后健康女性志愿者120例作为对照组。比较两组血清LECT2水平,并分析血清LECT2水平与腰椎和股骨颈骨密度（BMD）及骨代谢相关指标的相关性;应用受试者工作特征（ROC）曲线分析血清LECT2对绝经后骨质疏松症患者的预测价值。结果：研究组血清LECT2、骨钙素（OC）、I型原胶原N端前肽（PINP）、 I型胶原交联C末端肽（S-CTX）显著高于对照组,腰椎和股骨颈BMD显著低于对照组（P<0.05）。Pearson相关分析显示,绝经后骨质疏松症患者血清LECT2水平与OC、PINP、S-CTX水平呈正相关（P<0.05）,与腰椎和股骨颈BMD呈负相关（P<0.05）。ROC曲线分析显示,血清LECT2、OC、PINP、S-CTX联合检验对绝经后骨质疏松症患者的预测价值的曲线下面积（AUC）为0.856,大于各单一指标预测。结论：绝经后骨质疏松症女性血清LECT2水平升高,其水平与骨代谢指标OC、PINP、S-CTX水平呈正相关,与腰椎BMD和股骨颈BMD呈负相关,血清LECT2联合OC、PINP、S-CTX对绝经后骨质疏松症患者的预测价值较高。     

硒对培养人胚肝细胞Ⅲ型前胶原,羟脯氨酸合成的影响

原代培养人胚肝细胞经１．１５６×１０￣(－７）ｍｏｌ／Ｌ硒预处理４ｈ,加入２０ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ四氟化碳作用２０ｈ,观察硒对其Ⅲ型前胶原（ＰＣⅢ）和羟脯氨酸（Ｈｙｐ）生成的影响。结果培养液中ＰＣⅢ水平、细胞内Ｈｙｐ含量及细胞内外丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）水平均降低,与未加硒对照组比较差别有显著性（Ｐ＜０．０１）。而硒谷腕甘肽过氧化物酶（Ｓｅ－ＧＳＨ－ＰＸ）活性则较对照组显著增高（Ｐ＜０．００１）,且ＰＣⅢ水平与Ｓｅ－ＧＳＨ－Ｐ＿Ｘ／ＭＤＡ比值呈负相关（ｒ＝－０．９１５６,Ｐ＜０．０１）。提示硒可提高Ｓｅ－ＧＳＨ－Ｐ＿Ｘ／ＭＤＡ比值,抑制脂质过氧化激发的肝细胞胶原合成。
