The turbidimetric determination of folic acid concentration in serum and erythrocytes was made by means of a spectrophotometer multiscan in 35 conservatively treated patients with chronic renal failure with a minimum creatine retention of 309 mumol/l and in 63 hemodialysed patients with terminal renal insufficiency. The result showed a statistically significant diminution of serum folic acid concentration in those patients treated in a conservative manner and a significant diminution of plasmatic and erythrocytic folate++ activity in patients under hemodialysis. There was a correlation between the folic acid concentration and the hemoglobin level in both groups of patients, whereas there was no correlation to the number of leukocytes and thrombocytes. A protein deficiency diet or loss of dialysis through the capillary membrane could be found to be the cause for the loss of folic acid. The possibility of folate++ substitutive therapy and its performance was discussed and recommended for selected indications. 相似文献

Prenatal diagnosis: The authors present a personal case of triose-phosphate-isomerase deficiency. Clinically the deficiency associates a constitutional non spherocytic anemia, paroxystic and precocius, and neuromuscular symptoms (axial hypotonia and limb palsies). A diaphragmatic paralysis may complicate the syndrome. Infections are frequent. Survival rarely goes beyond 5 years of age. Biochemical exams show the ubiquity of the deficiency. The physiopathology remains obscure. The TPI deficiency is heritable (autosomal recessive transmission). The gene has been mapped on the short arm of the chromosome 12. Prenatal diagnosis is possible. 相似文献

Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias (CDAs) constitute a rare group of inherited red-blood-cell disorders associated with dysplastic changes in late erythroid precursors. CDA type I (CDAI [MIM 224120], gene symbol CDAN1) is characterized by erythroid pathological features such as internuclear chromatin bridges, spongy heterochromatin, and invagination of the nuclear membrane, carrying cytoplasmic organelles into the nucleus. A cluster of 45 highly inbred Israeli Bedouin with CDAI enabled the mapping of the CDAN1 disease gene to a 2-Mb interval, now refined to 1.2 Mb, containing 15 candidate genes on human chromosome 15q15 (Tamary et al. 1998). After the characterization and exclusion of 13 of these genes, we identified the CDAN1 gene through 12 different mutations in 9 families with CDAI. This 28-exon gene, which is transcribed ubiquitously into 4738 nt mRNA, was reconstructed on the basis of gene prediction and homology searches. It encodes codanin-1, a putative o-glycosylated protein of 1,226 amino acids, with no obvious transmembrane domains. Codanin-1 has a 150-residue amino-terminal domain with sequence similarity to collagens and two shorter segments that show weak similarities to the microtubule-associated proteins, MAP1B (neuraxin) and synapsin. These findings, and the cellular phenotype, suggest that codanin-1 may be involved in nuclear envelope integrity, conceivably related to microtubule attachments. The specific mechanisms by which codanin-1 underlies normal erythropoiesis remain to be elucidated. 相似文献

We report here on a series of vaccine trials to evaluate the effectiveness of an inactivated equine infectious anemia virus (EIAV) whole-virus vaccine and of a subunit vaccine enriched in EIAV envelope glycoproteins. The inactivated vaccine protected 14 of 15 immunized ponies from infection after challenge with at least 10(5) 50% tissue culture-infective doses of the homologous prototype strain of EIAV. In contrast, it failed to prevent infection in any of 15 immunized ponies that were challenged with the heterologous PV strain. Levels of PV virus replication and the development of disease, however, were significantly reduced in 12 of the 15 ponies so challenged. The subunit vaccine prevented infection from homologous challenge in four of four ponies tested but failed to prevent infection in all four challenged with the PV strain. Two of the four subunit vaccinates had more severe symptoms of equine infectious anemia than nonimmunized ponies infected in parallel. Both vaccines stimulated EIAV-specific cell-mediated immunity. The in vitro lymphoproliferative response was shown to be mediated by T lymphocytes and appeared to be indistinguishable from that induced by EIAV infection. Significant differences were observed in the in vivo lymphocyte responses following challenge with the two virus strains. While peripheral blood mononuclear cells from the inactivated virus vaccinates were equally stimulated by both the prototype and PV strains, the subunit vaccinates challenged with PV exhibited lower levels of spontaneous proliferation and serine esterase activity. This diminished cellular response to PV was correlated with more severe clinical disease in the same ponies. These studies demonstrate for the first time that both an EIAV inactivated whole-virus vaccine and a viral envelope glycoprotein-based subunit vaccine can provide protection against rigorous challenge levels of homologous virus but are unable to protect against similar challenge levels of a heterologous virus. Moreover, the data demonstrate that protection can be achieved in the absence of detectable levels of virus-specific neutralizing antibody in the vaccine recipients at the time of virus challenge. While vaccine-induced virus-specific cell-mediated immune responses were detected, their role in conferring protection was not obvious. Nevertheless, protection from disease appeared to be correlated with the induction of high levels of serine esterase activity following challenge. A significant observation is that while the whole-virus vaccine was usually capable of preventing or markedly moderating disease in the PV-infected ponies, the subunit vaccine appeared to have a high potential to enhance the disease induced by PV infection.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

A patient with characteristic features of iron deficiency was unexpectedly found to have circulating siderocytes. Bone marrow iron stain at this time showed absence of both hemosiderin and ringed sideroblasts; electron microscopy revealed absence of mitochondrial iron loading but presence of cytoplasmic ferritin in normoblasts. Replenishment of iron stores led to development of typical sideroblastic anemia. These observations suggest that increased percentage of siderocytes in otherwise typical iron deficiency anemia may signify the presence of a sideroblastic process masked by iron deficiency due to bleeding. 相似文献
