Differential Effects of Tachykinins Injected Intranigrally on Striatal Dopamine Metabolism

The effects of intranigral injection of kassinin, eledoisin, and substance P on striatal dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) contents as well as circling behavior were studied in rats. Kassinin and eledoisin produced a marked dose-dependent increase of DOPAC concentrations in the ipsilateral striatum, as well as in the number of contralateral circlings. Substance P produced a similar but weaker effect. At the larger dose (5 nmol), the three tachykinins also induced an increase of DA concentrations in the ipsilateral striatum. The rank order of activity was kassinin greater than eledoisin greater than substance P. These results suggest that tachykinins stimulated the nigro-striatal dopaminergic system by accelerating the dopamine metabolism in striatum.

绵羊红细胞的质量对静脉注射用人免疫球蛋白抗补体活性测定的影响

为了分析IVIG抗补体活性测定出现负值与绵羊红细胞质量的关系。采用CH50试验测定IVIG ACA时,在被检样品和其他试验条件相同的情况下,比较了被污染的和未污染的绵羊红细胞对IVIG抗补体活性测定的影响。结果显示,使用被污染的绵羊红细胞(作为试验材料时所得的)检测10份样品ACA(%)均为负值;使用未污染的绵羊红细胞未出现负值。提示被污染的绵羊红细胞干扰了抗补体活性测定,从而引起CH50试验结果出现偏差。

Determination of bisphenol A using a flow injection inhibitory chemiluminescence method.

A new flow injection chemiluminescence (CL) method has been developed for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA), based on the inhibitory effect of BPA on the chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and potassium hexacyanoferrate. Under optimum conditions, the decrease in CL emission intensity was linear with BPA concentration in the range 8.0 x 10(-7)-1.2 x 10(-5) mol/L, and the detection limit was 3.1 x 10(-7) mol/L. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of 11 replicate measurements was 2.6% for 2.0 x 10(-6) mol/L BPA (n = 11). The sampling frequency was calculated to be ca. 120/h. This method has been successfully used to determine the content of BPA in aqueous solution of polycarbonate materials. A brief discussion on the possible chemiluminescence reaction mechanism is presented.     

Chemiluminescence determination of fluoroquinolone antibiotics using a soluble manganese (IV)-sulphite system.

The reaction of soluble manganese (IV) with sulphite in acidic condition was found to elicit weak chemiluminescence (CL). The CL signal was remarkably enhanced in the presence of three fluoroquinolones, viz. norfloxacin, ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin. Based on these observations, a new flow-injection CL method was developed for the determination of these fluoroquinolones. The method allows determination in the range 5.0 x 10(-8)-1.0 x 10(-6) mol/L for norfloxacin, 1.0 x 10(-7)-8.0 x 10(-6) mol/L for ofloxacin and 1.0 x 10(-7)-3.0 x 10(-5) mol/L for ciprofloxacin, with detection limits of 3 x 10(-8) mol/L, 5 x 10(-8) mol/L and 3 x 10(-8) mol/L, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of fluoroquinolones in pharmaceutical preparations.

The dynamic distribution of fluoro-gold and its interrelation with neural nitric oxide synthase following intracerebroventricular injection into rat brain

We mapped the dynamic distribution of fluoro-gold (FG) within rat brain following intracerebroventricular (icv) injection into the lateral ventricle and observed its interrelation with neural nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) using FG fluorescent microphotography combined with nNOS immunohistochemistry. We also detected the amount of icv administered FG entering the peripheral circulation using a fluorescence microplate assay. The degree of periventricular penetration of FG was significantly increased over time. At 2 min after icv injection, FG primarily labeled the choroid plexus in the lateral and third ventricles, with limited penetration into the ependyma and the subependyma of the same ventricles. Some FG/nNOS-double labeled cerebrospinal fluid-contacting neurons were observed in these ventricles as well. At 15 and 30 min, FG penetrated mainly into forebrain ventricular organs and parenchymal structures. Many FG/nNOS double labeled neurons were found at each of these sites. In addition, at 30 min intense FG labeling was found in the hypophysis, while limited periventricular penetration of FG was detected in the hindbrain circumventricular areas. In the peripheral circulation, a low concentration of FG was detected 2 min after icv injection. The concentration increased slowly, peaked at 20 min, then gradually decreased until the end of the experiment at 30 min. These findings indicate that dynamic penetration of icv administrated agents into the periventricular tissues and peripheral circulation should be considered when designing icv experiments.     

怀孕前后酒精摄入对雌鼠植入前胚胎DNA甲基化模式建立的影响

女性怀孕前后饮酒会对胎儿的发育及神经系统造成不利影响,称为“胎儿酒精综合征”（fetal alcohol spectrum disorders,FASD）。小鼠通常作为研究该病的动物模型。该实验采用体外培养技术及体内冲胚法研究雌鼠怀孕前后酒精摄入对各期植入前胚胎全基因组DNAT基化模式建立的影响。小鼠植入前胚胎体外培养实验发现,体外实验组I（怀孕前酒精处理组1,除8-cell外,其他各期胚胎的DNA甲基化水平明显低于体外对照组;体外实验组II（正常胚胎在含乙醇的培养基中培养）,各期植入前胚胎DNA甲基化水平均明显低于体外对照组。体内实验发现,体内实验组I（怀孕前酒精处理组）与体内的实验组II（怀孕后酒精处理组）,各期植入前胚胎DNA甲基化水平明显低于体内对照组。体内、外实验结果表明：受精前后酒精对各期植入前胚胎DNA甲基化模式的正确建立造成紊乱,该结果可为进一步揭示FSAD发病机制提供一定的实验基础。
