表皮生长因子及受体在甲状腺肿瘤中的表达

目的:研究表皮生长因子(Epidermal Growth Factor,EGF)及受体(Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor,EGFR)及在甲状腺肿瘤中的表达。方法:应用免疫组织化学法检测91例甲状腺病变组织中EGFR和EGF的表达情况。结果:结节性甲状腺肿、甲状腺腺瘤、分化型甲状腺癌标本中EGFR表达的阳性率分别为15%、25%、68.62%,EGF表达的阳性率分别为10%、15%、68.62%,其中EGFR、EGF在分化型甲状腺癌与其余两组间差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。EGFR和EGF在甲状腺乳头状癌中的表达与性别、年龄、肿瘤大小、淋巴结转移、临床分期等临床因素无明显相关。结论:EGF和EGFR的表达可作为鉴别甲状腺肿瘤良恶性的一个指标。     

Fine structure of cultured glioblasts before and after stimulation by a Glia Maturation Factor

The effect of Glia Maturation Factor on glioblasts in a monolayer culture is studied at the ultrastructural level. The most important finding consists of a change from cells with a predominance of sheath microfilaments (50 Å) and desmosome junctions to cells with a predominance of 100 Å-filaments (gliofilaments) and the puncta adhaerentia type of junctions. The restructuring of the cellular fine components, taken together with our earlier studies on chemistry and cytodynamics, is consistent with the maturation of glial cells in vitro. Although the microtubules do not alter in number, they change from a random orientiation to a parallel alignment with respect to the long axis of the cell processes. Glioblasts in aggregate cultures undergo morphological maturation without the help of the exogenous maturation factor. Glycogen granules characteristic of glia are also observed in these cells. The results suggest that the maturation factor is synthesized by the glial cells during the course of development and that cytodifferentiation is triggered by a local accumulation of the factor above a threshold level.     

The Child's Acquisition of the Phoneme System of a Language

In an earlier study we examined some of the typical patterns manifested in a child's babbling on the basis of material gathered in systematic observations of the development of pronunciation in four children (Voprosy psikhologii, 1973, No. 2).* In this paper we shall present material that sheds light on the way children learn the sounds of actual speech.     

Schwannoma-Derived Growth Factor Interacts with the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor

Abstract: Schwannoma-derived growth factor (SDGF) is a potent mitogen and neuronal differentiation factor. Because of its relationship to epidermal growth factor (EGF) and the heregulins, it was asked if SDGF interacts with the EGF receptor or HER2/neu. SDGF binds to and causes the phosphorylation on tyrosine of the EGF receptor but not HER2/neu.     

The Process of Adaptation to Environmental Conditions in a Child's Behavior

The present study cannot be considered complete. The results presented below are only the first stage in a study of the problem. We must point out that the crux of this study lies not only with the results, both obtained and anticipated, but also with the actual procedure of the investigation, so special attention is therefore devoted to it.     

生长因子受体酪氨酸激酶的结构与功能

受体酪氨酸蛋白激酶是细胞信号转导进行的关键信号酶,在生长因子调控细胞生长、发育与功能的过程中起着重要的生理作用.本文主要介绍生长因子受体酪氨酸蛋白激酶的分类、结构与功能及其部分相关信号转导机制的研究进展.     

细胞因子和生长因子在肝再生中的作用

肝再生过程是一个极其复杂且精密的过程,多种生长因子（包括HGF,TGF,EGF等）和细胞因子（包括TNF,IL-6等）参与调节这一过程,而且生长因子与细胞因子之间有存在着千丝万缕的联系。本文着重介绍了生长因子和细胞因子在肝再生过程中的作用以及二者之间的联系。

肝素结合性表皮生长因子在心肌重塑中的作用

肝素结合性表皮生长因子（HB-EGF）是表皮生长因子家族成员之一。HB-EGF是多种细胞的有丝分裂原,参与一系列生理和病理过程,包括心肌细胞肥大,成纤维细胞增生,胶原纤维表达增多,是心肌重塑发生发展过程中的一个重要生长因子。本文综述了HB-EGF在心肌重塑过程中的研究进展。     

The Role of Thiamine as a Factor for the Growth of Brochothrix thermosphacta

Thiamine enhances growth of the meat spoilage organism, Brochothrix thermosphacta. It fulfils some, but not all, of the yeast-extract requirement of this organism. Oxythiamine acts as a growth inhibitor at high concentrations and the inhibition is readily reversed by thiamine. The possible roles of thiamine in the metabolism of Br. thermosphacta are discussed.
