It has been substantiated that the use of a new synthetic drug tageflar analogous to L-enkephalin was accompanied by the depression in pancreatic enzyme activity in the blood of rats, acceleration of necrotic and lytic processes in irreversibly damaged exocrine pancreocytes in the course of experimental pancreatitis. The drug promoted microcirculation retention in the injury zone and acceleration of the arrangement and elimination of necrotic glandular tissue. The influence of tagaflar diminished the extent of perifocal necrobiotic zone and suppressed sclerotic processes and pancreatic lipomatosis.  相似文献

Early treatment with gordox of white rats with experimental pancreonecrosis reduces amylasemia and prevents dissemination of steatonecroses. The drug appreciably improves pancreatic microcirculation. Similarly to the control, the injured part of the gland undergoes necrosis. However, the severity of hemorrhagic component is minimal. The treatment with gordox enhances leukocytic infiltration aimed at elimination of necrotic tissues.  相似文献

We compared characteristic lesions occurring in chickens and domestic ducks naturally infected with H5N1 HPAI virus in April and May 2008. Infected chickens generally exhibited pale-green, watery diarrhoea, depression, neurological signs and cyanosis of wattles and combs, and infected ducks generally exhibited neurological signs and watery diarrhoea. Gross petechial or ecchymotic haemorrhage affected the heart, proventriculus, liver, muscle, fat, and pancreas in chickens, and muscle in ducks. Necrotic foci were primarily present in the pancreas of both species and in the heart of domestic ducks. Histopathologically, chickens exhibited multifocal encephalomalacia, multifocal lymphohistiocytic myocarditis, multifocal necrotic pancreatitis and haemorrhage of several organs and tissues; ducks exhibited lymphohistiocytic meningoencephalitis with multifocal haemorrhages, multifocal necrotic pancreatitis, and severe necrotic myocarditis with mineralisation. The characteristic histopathologic findings of 2008 HPAI were multifocal encephalomalacia and necrotic pancreatitis accompanied by lymphohistiocytic myocarditis, and haemorrhage in various organs and tissues in chickens, whereas in ducks, they were severe necrotic myocarditis with mineralisation and necrotic pancreatitis, accompanied with lymphohistiocytic meningoencephalitis. The high mortality of domestic ducks may be intimately associated with heart failure resulting from increased H5N1 HPAI viral cardiotropism.  相似文献

Grapefruit seed extract (GSE) has been shown to exert antibacterial, antifungal and antioxidant activity possibly due to the presence of naringenin, the flavonoid with cytoprotective action on the gastric mucosa. No study so far has been undertaken to determine whether this GSE is also capable of preventing acute pancreatic damage induced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), which is known to result from reduction of anti-oxidative capability of pancreatic tissue, and whether its possible preventive effect involves an antioxidative action of this biocomponent. In this study carried out on rats with acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis induced by 30 min partial pancreatic ischemia followed by 6 h of reperfusion, the GSE or vehicle (vegetable glycerin) was applied intragastrically in gradually increasing amounts (50-500 microl) 30 min before I/R. Pretreatment with GSE decreased the extent of pancreatitis with maximal protective effect of GSE at the dose 250 microl. GSE reduced the pancreatitis-evoked increase in serum lipase and poly-C specific ribonuclease activity, and attenuated the marked fall in pancreatic blood flow and pancreatic DNA synthesis. GSE administered alone increased significantly pancreatic tissue content of lipid peroxidation products, malondialdehyde and 4-hydroxyalkens, and when administered before I/R, GSE reduced the pancreatitis-induced lipid peroxidation. We conclude that GSE exerts protective activity against I/R-induced pancreatitis probably due to the activation of antioxidative mechanisms in the pancreas and the improvement of pancreatic blood flow.  相似文献

The activity of hybrid ribonuclease (ribonuclease H) has been determined in mononuclear blood cells (lymphocytes plus monocytes) from 23 normal individuals and cells (pool of immature granulocytes, metamyelocytes and lymphocytes) from 35 untreated acute and chronic myelogenous leukemia cases. It was found that in 86% of the leukemic samples the activity of ribonuclease H was above two standard deviations from the mean activity level drawn for the group of normal samples along the 0-100% substrate hydrolysis scale. The activity of the enzyme in leukemic cells correlated linearly with the DNA-synthesizing activity of the cells in vitro and in the examined CML cases it paralleled the inverse relationship of the incorporation of tritiated thymidine into DNA to the size of the pool of immature granulocytes. In one CML patient who received chemotherapy with Myleran, the activity of ribonuclease H, high at the initiation of drug therapy, was reduced to a normal level at remission, but increased again at the stage of subsequent relapse. These findings indicate that the levels of ribonuclease H in leukemic cells reflect the proliferative activity of the population in the cases of untreated myelogenous leukemias.  相似文献

We investigated the relationship between DNA degradation and lysosome activity (loss of lysosomal integrity) in necrotic cell death induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and dimethylnitrosamine (DMN): coagulation necrosis and hemorrhagic necrosis, respectively. TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end-labeling (TUNEL) and enzyme histochemistry for acid phosphatase were performed in both models and results were analyzed by light microscopy, electron microscopy, and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). In the CCl(4)-injected liver, TUNEL staining was closely associated with release of lysosomal enzymes into the cytoplasm, and intranuclear deposition of lysosomal enzymes took place at an early stage of subcellular damage. In the DMN-injected liver, TUNEL-positive nuclei tended to have well-preserved lysosomes and centrally localized TUNEL signals. It was assumed that acute hepatocellular damage in the CCl4-injected liver would be characterized by necrotic cell death with lysosome activation and that damage in the DMN-injected liver would be necrotic cell death without lysosome activation. In the DMN-injected liver, DNA degradation may be selectively induced in the nuclear center, in which heterochromatin (including inactive chromatin) is believed to be a target. We concluded that necrotic cell death, i.e., DNA degradation, would be at least divided into two types, with/without association with lysosome activation, represented by necrotic cell death in the CCl4-injected liver and that in the DMN-injected liver.  相似文献

Serum and urine elastase 1, its renal output and clearance and urinary gamma-glutamyltransferase and ribonuclease excretions were measured in 16 patients with pancreatic cancer, 23 with chronic pancreatitis and in 22 healthy controls in order to evaluate elastase 1 plasma-urine transfer in chronic pancreatic disease and to investigate any factors that might influence the clearance of this enzyme. In an additional group of 17 patients with different pancreatic diseases the serum molecular size distribution of elastase 1 after chromatography was ascertained. An increased urinary elastase 1 output was found in 4/16 patients with pancreatic cancer and in 6/23 with chronic pancreatitis. No correlation was found between circulating elastase 1 and its urinary output; a negative correlation was detected between the serum levels of this enzyme and its clearance. The excretion of ribonuclease and gamma-glutamyltransferase was correlated with elastase 1 output and clearance. While the majority of elastase 1 in serum was accounted for by high molecular forms, probably the expression of complexes with serum inhibitors, free circulating enzyme was present in all patients with high serum elastase 1. Our findings suggest that elastase 1 urinary excretion increases in some patients with chronic pancreatic disease regardless of the neoplastic or inflammatory nature of the illness. Although the availability of different amounts of ultrafiltrable enzyme may play a role in influencing elastase 1 plasma-urine transfer, renal tubular damage appears to be the most important factor influencing the increase in the urinary output of elastase 1.  相似文献

The lengthy treatment regimen for tuberculosis is necessary to eradicate a small sub-population of M. tuberculosis that persists in certain host locations under drug pressure. Limited information is available on persisting bacilli and their location within the lung during disease progression and after drug treatment. Here we provide a comprehensive histopathological and microscopic evaluation to elucidate the location of bacterial populations in animal models for TB drug development.To detect bacilli in tissues, a new combination staining method was optimized using auramine O and rhodamine B for staining acid-fast bacilli, hematoxylin QS for staining tissue and DAPI for staining nuclei. Bacillary location was studied in three animal models used in-house for TB drug evaluations: C57BL/6 mice, immunocompromised GKO mice and guinea pigs. In both mouse models, the bacilli were found primarily intracellularly in inflammatory lesions at most stages of disease, except for late stage GKO mice, which showed significant necrosis and extracellular bacilli after 25 days of infection. This is also the time when hypoxia was initially visualized in GKO mice by 2-piminidazole. In guinea pigs, the majority of bacteria in lungs are extracellular organisms in necrotic lesions and only few, if any, were ever visualized in inflammatory lesions. Following drug treatment in mice a homogenous bacillary reduction across lung granulomas was observed, whereas in guinea pigs the remaining extracellular bacilli persisted in lesions with residual necrosis. In summary, differences in pathogenesis between animal models infected with M. tuberculosis result in various granulomatous lesion types, which affect the location, environment and state of bacilli. The majority of M. tuberculosis bacilli in an advanced disease state were found to be extracellular in necrotic lesions with an acellular rim of residual necrosis. Drug development should be designed to target this bacillary population and should evaluate drug regimens in the appropriate animal models.  相似文献

Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is up-regulated by TGF-beta1 during wound healing. The present study examined the expression of CTGF during regeneration after 70% partial hepatectomy (PH) or d-galactosamine (GalN)-injured liver in rats. CTGF, TGF-beta1, and type I collagen mRNAs were semiquantified by a ribonuclease protection assay. After PH, TGF-beta1 and type I collagen were increased at 2-6 h and at 12-48 h. CTGF increased at 6 h and returned to the control level thereafter. The ribonuclease protection assay of cultured hepatic stellate cells (HSC) and in situ hybridization suggest that the cells express CTGF along sinusoid might be HSCs. After GalN administration, CTGF increased at 2-96 h with a shoulder peak at 6-12 h followed by a main peak at 24 h. TGF-beta1 and type I collagen were up-regulated with kinetics similar to those of CTGF. The different kinetics between PH and GalN regenerations indicate that regulation of CTGF in the two processes is different. Higher TGF-beta1 expression after inflammatory/necrotic process in the GalN regeneration may caused the prolonged CTGF expression.  相似文献

1. Two ribonucleases (aorta ribonuclease I and aorta ribonuclease II) from bovine aorta were purified 4611-fold and 667-fold respectively. Ethanolic precipitation, acid extraction, isoionic precipitation at pH3.5 and Bio-Rex 70 column chromatography were the methods employed. 2. Aorta ribonuclease I exhibited no deoxyribonuclease or alkaline phosphatase activity. 3. Aorta ribonuclease I appeared to be homogeneous when subjected to discontinuous gel electrophoresis. 4. Aorta ribonuclease II exhibited the same properties as aorta ribonuclease previously isolated. 5. The activities of the aorta ribonucleases and pancreatic ribonuclease on homopolymers and dinucleoside phosphates were compared. 6. Aorta ribonuclease I exhibited optimum pH7.5 and, under the assay conditions used, optimum temperature 60 degrees .  相似文献

A dominant genetic male sterility trait obtained through transformation in rapeseed (Brassica napus) was studied in the progenies of 11 transformed plants. The gene conferring the male sterility consists of a ribonuclease gene under the control of a tapetum-specific promoter. Two ribonuclease genes, RNase T1 and barnase, were used. The chimaeric ribonuclease gene was linked to the bialophos-resistance gene, which confers resistance to the herbicide phosphinotricine (PPT). The resistance to the herbicide was used as a dominant marker for the male sterility trait. The study presented here concerns three aspects of this engineered male sterility: genetics correlated with the segregation of the T-DNA in the progenies; expression of the male sterility in relation to the morphology and cytology of the androecium; and stability of the engineered male sterility under different culture conditions. Correct segregation, 50% male-sterile, PPT-resistant plants, and 50% male-fertile, susceptible plants were observed in the progeny of seven transformants. The most prominent morphological change in the male-sterile flowers was a noticeable reduction in the length of the stamen filament. The first disturbances of microsporogenesis were observed from the free microspore stage and were followed by a simultaneous degeneration of microspore and tapetal cell content. At anthesis, the sterile anthers contained only empty exines. In some cases, reversion to fertility of male-sterile plants has been observed. Both ribonuclease genes are susceptible to instability. Instability of the RNase T1-male sterility trait increased at temperatures higher than 25[deg] C. Our results do not allow us to confirm this observation for the barnase male-sterile plants. However, the male-sterile plants of the progeny of two independent RNase T1 transformants were stably male sterile under all conditions studied.  相似文献

The isozymes of ribonuclease were analyzed in cell-free, crude extracts of Dictyostelium discoideum by activity staining of polyacrylamide gels after electrophoresis. The relative levels of three isozymes were then examined during the growth and during the first stages of multicellular development. We observed the replacement of two of these three isozymes by two other isozymes at the pseudoplasmodial stage. These isozymes were different from ribonuclease T1 in terms of their mobility in polyacrylamide gels during electrophoresis. The mobilities of two of the isozymes, DdI and DdII, were 59 and 42% of that of ribonuclease T1. The changes in the relative levels of the isozymes during development are discussed.  相似文献

The distribution of ribonucleases among bacteria has been determined from the examination of a wide variety of species. Bacteria that had been growing rapidly on a solid medium were harvested, treated with acetone and incubated in the presence of EDTA between pH4 and pH9. The ribonuclease activity was determined from the rate at which acid-soluble nucleotides were released. Out of nearly 200 strains examined, about 30 did not contain a detectable ribonuclease. The pH optima of ribonucleases in the remainder were sufficiently distinctive to suggest a use in taxonomy. Escherichia coli B was examined in more detail to determine the factors responsible for variations in the ribonuclease content of this bacterium. Growth rate had little influence on ribonuclease content when a complex medium containing no readily assimilable carbohydrate was used; the addition of glucose resulted in a marked increase in ribonuclease and a dependence of enzyme content on growth rate. An increase in the concentration of sodium chloride in the medium decreased the ribonuclease content of bacteria growing on it.  相似文献

The "concrete" histological criteria for establishing the benignity or malignancy of cerebral tumours of neuroectodermic origin (gliomas and medulloblastomas, respectively granulocytomas) may be thus synthetized: 1) the benign tumours have a fibrocellular structure, the neoplastic cells being relatively monomorphous; vascular hyperplasia is absent, as well as necrotic and hemorrhagic foci; 2) the malignant tumours are hyper- and polymorphocellular, the fibrillar component being reduced or absent; vascular hyperplasia as well as the presence of necrotic and/or hemorrhagic foci is a constant characteristic; the tumoral cells often infiltrate the perivascular spaces.  相似文献

Histological and histochemical study of the pancreas of albino rats and experimental pancreatitis showed the use of sodium thiosulfate to considerably inhibit the progress of necrotic changes and circulatory disturbance. The preparation prevented recidivation of pancreatitis and inhibited sclerotic changes in the gland. Sodium thiosulfate stimulated the regenerative process including regenerative hypertrophy and expressed epimorphosis.  相似文献

The trifluoroethanol (TFE)-induced structural changes of two proteins widely used in folding experiments, bovine alpha-lactalbumin, and bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A, have been investigated. The experiments were performed using circular dichroism spectroscopy in the far- and near-UV region to monitor changes in the secondary and tertiary structures, respectively, and dynamic light scattering to measure the hydrodynamic dimensions and the intermolecular interactions of the proteins in different conformational states. Both proteins behave rather differently under the influence of TFE: alpha-lactalbumin exhibits a molten globule state at low TFE concentrations before it reaches the so-called TFE state, whereas ribonuclease A is directly transformed into the TFE state at TFE concentrations above 40% (v/v). The properties of the TFE-induced states are compared with those of equilibrium and kinetic intermediate states known from previous work to rationalize the use of TFE in yielding information about the folding of proteins. Additionally, we report on the properties of TFE/water and TFE/buffer mixtures derived from dynamic light scattering investigations under conditions used in our experiments.  相似文献

Water-immersion stress is known to be involved in the development of hemorrhagic pancreatitis in caerulein-induced pancreatitis, when the stress is given following caerulein injection. The effects of pre-treatment with water-immersion to caerulein-induced pancreatitis were investigated in this study.
  • 1.1. A 60-kDa heat shock protein was induced by pre-treatment with water-immersion stress in the pancreas.
  • 2.2. Intra-peritoneal injection of caerulein (40 μg/kg) induced acute pancreatitis in rats without pre-treatment with water-immersion. However, when the rats were pre-treated with water-immersion, acute pancreatitis was not developed and no change of serum amylase levels was observed by i.p. injection of caerulein.

The gene of Zinnia elegans L. coding for S-like extracellular ribonuclease (ZRNase II) was used to produce transgenic tobacco plants with an increased ribonuclease activity. The protein-coding part of ZRNase II included the signal peptide sequence so the transgenic protein was located extracellularly. The cDNA of ZRNase II was cloned under the control of 2′-promoter of the mannopine synthase (MAS 2′) gene from Ti-plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens. It was shown that the resultant transgenic plants had an increased ribonuclease activity of the crude extracts and the induction of MAS 2′ promoter by wounding additionally increased the activity. The plants of two transforming lines characterized by different ribonuclease activities were used to analyze the transgene influence on plant resistance to tobacco mosaic virus. The plants demonstrated either absence of disease symptoms or a significant delay in their appearance, depending on the virus content in the inoculum and ribonuclease activity.  相似文献
