INDUCTION OF HEPATOCYTE GROWTH FACTOR IN THE LIVER, KIDNEY AND LUNG FOLLOWING TOTAL BODY IRRADIATION IN RAT

Hepatocyte factor (HGF) has been shown to have a pleiotropic function to act as a potent organotropic factor in the regeneration of injury in various organs, including the liver, kidney and lung. To examine the involvement of HGF in radiation injury, the authors analysed the changes in HGF mRNA and HGF protein levels in the rat organs (liver, lung, kidney) and plasma following 6 Gy of total body irradiation. Expression of HGF mRNA in the liver and kidney increased 6–48 h after total body irradiation and returned to previous values 1 week later. HGF protein levels in lung and liver showed 1.3-2 fold elevations 1–2 weeks after irradiation (P< 0.05). HGF levels in plasma stayed at undetectable levels up to 1 month after total body irradiation. The labelling index determined 2 weeks and 1 month after total body irradiation indicated no enhancement of regeneration. Thus, total body irradiation induced transient HGF elevation in these organs without enhancement of regeneration     

5-HYDROXY-l-TRYPTOPHAN DECARBOXYLASE ACTIVITY: MICROASSAY AND DISTRIBUTION IN DISCRETE RAT BRAIN NUCLEI

Abstract— 5-Hydroxy- l -tryptophan decarboxylase (EC 4.1.1.28) activity was measured in discrete regions of the rat brain by means of a sensitive micromethod lhat allows the quantitation of enzyme activity in μg amounts of brain tissue.
A good correlation was obtained between serotonin levels and 5-hydroxy- l -tryptophan decarboxylase activity in all the brain regions examined. Wide differences in enzyme activity were found in the different brain nuclei, with a 20-fold difference in activity between the most active region (the nucleus raphe dorsalis) and the least active regions (the corpus callosum and the optic tract).     

THE CORRELATION BETWEEN CHOLINE ACETYLTRANSFERASE AND ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE ACTIVITY IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE CEREBELLUM OF RAT AND GUINEA PIG

Abstract— Choline acetyltransferase (ChAc) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) levels were measured quantitatively in samples from the archi- and paleocerebellar vermis (Larsell's Lobules IX c,d,-X, and Lobules VII-VIII, respectively) and from the cerebellar peduncles, nuclei and white matter of rat and guinea pig. Lesions to isolate archi- or paleocerebellar areas were made in some rats and the effect on enzyme levels and ultrastructure were studied. In the rat there was a striking correlation between the activity of ChAc and AChE in the different areas; thus in the archicerebellar cortex the levels of both enzymes were 3–4 times those in the paleocortex. Deafferentation caused a fall in ChAc and this practically paralleled the fall in AChE in the same area. The reduction in both enzymes was more pronounced in the archi- than in the paleocerebellar cortex. In the guinea pig the results were very different. The ChAc activity was much lower than in the rat and was equal in the archi- and paleocerebellum. The AChE activity was also uniform in the different areas but, in contrast to ChAc, was higher than in the rat.     

心肌细胞核Ca2+库特点及其调节的离体研究

研究核外Ca~(2+)浓度对核Ca~(2+)的影响,及细胞核Ca~(2+)摄取和释放的关系,以探讨核Ca~(2+)转运的调节机制。采用差速离心和密度梯度离心法分离纯化心肌细胞核,以Fluo-4/AM荧光指示剂负载心肌细胞核,应用激光共聚焦扫描显微镜和荧光分光光度计进行观察和测定。结果显示,分离纯化的成年大鼠心肌细胞核内自由[Ca~(2+)]随着核外[Ca~(2+)]的增加而逐渐增加,孵育液[Ca~(2+)]为1000 nmol/L达高峰,但二者增加的程度并不一致,之后随核外[Ca~(2+)]浓度的增加而呈降低趋势。ATP和100—600nmol/L的核外游离Ca~(2+),使心肌细胞核显示核被膜腔Ca~(2+)荧光,ATP和1000nmol/L的核外游离Ca~(2+)则进一步引起核浆内的Ca~(2+)荧光强度升高。荧光染色观察可见IP_3受体染色主要位于核内膜,而钙泵和ryanodine受体染色主要位于核外膜。IP_3和Ryancodine使核Ca~(2+)短暂升高1.68倍和1.93倍(P<0.001),而钙泵抑制剂Thapsigargin和IP_3受体抑制剂Heparin则分别使核Ca~(2+)降低64%和35.6%(p<0.05)。ryanodine使IP_3升高的核Ca~(2+)显著回落至正常水平以下(p<0.001)。Thapsigargin不能阻断IP_3和Ryanodine所致的核Ca~(2+)释放增加(p<0.05),但事先采用钙泵抑制剂Thapsigargin预处理心肌细胞核,则能显著的阻断IP_3和Ryanodine所致的核Ca~(2+)升高作用(Ca~(2+)释放作用)(p<0.05)。结果提示大鼠心肌细胞核可能也是细胞内的钙库之一,心肌细胞核上存在Ca~(2+)-ATPase、ryanodine受体和IP_3受体等Ca~(2+)转运系统,可能参与核Ca~(2+)摄取和释放的调节。     

大鼠常温肝缺血再灌注肝组织化学变化的研究

本实验采用大鼠49只,常温肝缺血再灌注模型,对肝缺血不同时间及再灌注后肝组织化学活性变化进行了分组定性对比观察.结果显示:1.缺血期,肝细胞PAS反应和SDH、AKP.Mg~(++)-ATPase活性随缺血时间延长逐渐减弱,LDH活性于缺血初期有所增强,随后逐渐减弱,到缺血90min时,上述各酶组织化学活性及糖原(PAS反应)均几乎消失,而ACP活性则显著增强.2.再灌注期,肝酶组织化学活性及PAS反应的变化趋势与缺血时间长短有密切关系,缺血20、40min再灌注后,肝酶组织化学活性及糖原(PAS反应)可逐渐恢复正常水平,而缺血60、90min再灌注后,肝脏SDH、AKP、LDH、Mg~(++)-ATPase和PAS反应均消失,ACP活注进一步增强.     

TRANSCELLULAR BIOSYNTHESIS OF CYSTEINYL LEUKOTRIENES BY KUPFFER CELL—HEPATOCYTE COOPERATION IN RAT LIVER

We previously proposed that an enzymatic cooperation between Kupffer cells and hepatocytes may play an important role in cysteinyl leukotriene (LT) production in rat liver. Anin vitrotranscellular synthesis cysteinyl LTs by a Kupffer cell—hepatocyte coculture system was characterized here. Kupffer cells alone, with A23187 stimulation, did not generate cysteinyl LTs until supplemented either with isolated hepatocytes or with LTC₄synthase and glutathione, indicating that Kupffer cells can synthesize LTA₄but not convert it into LTC₄. In contrast, hepatocytes converted the LTA₄into cysteinyl LTs and further degraded the cysteinyl LTs. Cysteinyl LT production by the Kupffer cell—hapatocyte coculture system was optimized by addition of 1–3% serum albumin to the culture and by bringing the cell—cell distance closer to less than 3μ. Tumour necrosis factor also stimulated cysteinyl LT production by the coculture system. From these results, it is expected that the Kupffer cell—hepatocyte transcellular system for cysteinyl LT production actually functionsin vivo.     

5-羟色胺和一氧化氮合酶在大鼠中脑导水管周围灰质 和中缝核簇神经元内的共存

实验采用 NADPH组织化学和 5 - HT免疫组织化学双重显色方法研究了 5 - HT和一氧化氮合酶在大鼠中脑导水管周围灰质 (PAG)和中缝核簇神经元的分布特征及共存情况。结果表明 ;(1 )在 PAG腹外侧区中观察到大量的 NOS阳性神经元和 5 - HT样免疫阳性神经元 ,但是 NOS/ 5 - HT双标神经元较少 ,仅占该区 5 - HT样免疫阳性神经元 2 0 .1 % ,并且主要分布在该区的内侧部 ;在 PAG的背外侧区中观察到密集的 NOS阳性神经元 ,但是几乎未见 5 - HT免疫阳性神经元分布。(2 )在中缝核簇的大多数亚核内均可观察到大量的 NOS神经元和 5 - HT免疫阳性神经元。在中缝背核的内侧部、中缝背核的尾侧部、中缝正中核、尾侧线形核、中缝大核和中缝隐核内双标神经元分别占所在部位中 5 - HT免疫阳性神经元的 44 .6 %、5 3.4%、 44 .4%、 2 6 .2 %、 2 6 .7%和 2 1 .8%。然而在中缝苍白核内仅偶见少数双标神经元。研究结果表明 ,在 PAG和中缝核簇的一些神经元内 5 - HT可以与 NOS共存 ,提示这两种神经活性物质在功能上可能存在着某种相关性 ,有关这些双标神经元的功能意义尚需进一步研究。     

大白鼠中缝核一氧化氮合酶阳性神经元的组织化学观察

中脑和脑桥部中缝核被认为与睡眠有直接和间接关系的重要脑结构。本文用一氧化氮合酶（ＮＯＳ）组织化学结合荧光组织化学方法证实在中缝核群中,ＮＯＳ阳性神经元主要定位于这两个脑部的中缝核内,ＮＯＳ产生的ＮＯ能使脑血管扩张,参与脑血流的调节。提示这二个脑部中缝核内的ＮＯＳ阳性神经元可能作为多种因素之一,参于睡眠状态下基本脑血流的维持     

大鼠基底前脑NGF-R及CHAT免疫反应阳性神经元的分布:免疫双标法

本文用免疫组化双标法观察了神经生长因子受体(NGF-R)及胆碱乙酰转移酶(ChAT)免疫反应阳性神经元在成鼠基底前脑内的分布,结果发现嗅结节、隔内侧核、斜角带核、腹侧苍白球及基底大细胞核均有NGF-R及ChAT免疫反应阳性神经元.免疫组化双标染色发现,大部分免疫反应阳性神经元的NGF-R与ChAT共存,部分神经元呈单纯NGF-R或ChAT阳性,但这种NGF-R和ChAT的共存情况在不同区域不完全相同.在隔内侧核和斜角带核,大多数的NGF-R阳性神经元和ChAT阳性神经元共存,但在腹侧仓白球和基底大细胞核,两者共存的神经元较前两区为少.此外ChAT阳性神经元在尾壳核中分布较均匀,而NGF-R阳性神经元较少见.研究结果表明,大多数胆碱能神经元有NGF-R,提示NGF对胆碱能神经元的保护和激活作用,部分可能是通过直接与NGF受体的结合而发生作用.     

离体鼠肝细胞及P-450酶系与拟除虫菊酯类杀虫剂的相互作用

经研究表明顺式氯氰菊酯、甲氰菊酯、氟氰菊酯、氰戊菊酯在正辛醇——水相中的分配系数(logP)分别为6.13,5.50,5.55和4.02。离体培养的大白鼠原代肝细胞对上述杀虫剂(除氟氰菊酯外)的吸收系数(q值)分别为322.6,281.1,201.9。上述杀虫剂在离体培养的原代肝细胞中降解很快,温育30分钟后降解速率分别为90.0％(顺式氯氰菊酯)、86.2％(甲氰菊酯)、69.5％(氰戊菊酯)。同时有明显的减少离体培养的鼠肝细胞中P-450含量的作用,其中以溴氰菊酯和顺式氯氰菊酯作用较明显。在溴氰菊酯处理组中,随杀虫剂浓度的升高,这种减少P-450含量的作用明显增强。检查温育反应90分种后的细胞悬浮反应液,对照组仍维持高的细胞存活率(74.4％和91.2％),而杀虫剂处理组,除甲氰菊酯处理组仍有42.4％的存活率外,其余各杀虫剂(溴氰菊酯各浓度组和顺式氯氰菊酯处理组)均未检出存活的细胞。结果表明,试验所用的几种拟除虫菊酯类杀虫剂具有一定的细胞毒性。它们在鼠肝细胞中的降解代谢可能主要不是由于多功能氧化酶起作用。另外,杀虫剂的亲脂性与q值及在肝细胞中的降解速率三者间有一定的正相关。     

A COMPARED STUDY ON THE PURIFICATION OF FETAL AND ADULT RAT HEPATOCYTE SUSPENSIONS BY BIOMAGNETIC ISOLATION TECHNIQUES AND FLOW CYTOMETRY ANALYSIS

An analysis of liver cell populations from both adult and 21 day pregnancy rat fetuses (E21) was carried out. The results show that E21 hepatocytes express OX-43, as do endothelial cells but not adult hepatocytes. OX-43 could be used in future as a cell marker for the hepatocyte maturation.     

REGIONAL CHANGES IN RAT BRAIN CHOLINE ACETYLTRANSFERASE AND ACETYLCHOLINESTERASE ACTIVITY RESULTING FROM UNDERNUTRITION IMPOSED DURING DIFFERENT PERIODS OF DEVELOPMENT1

Abstract— The severity of mental changes in malnourished children is related to both the period of development when the malnutrition occurs and the amount of environmental stimulation. In the present study the effect of imposing protein undernutrition during the period of gestation or postweaning period, and protein-energy undernutrition during the suckling period on cholinergic enzyme activity was investigated in the rat. Six different dietary treatments were given and the activity of ChAc, ChE, and AChE determined in the forebrain, brainstem, and cerebellum of male rats on day 49. Undernutrition imposed during gestation, suckling or postweaning all resulted in changes in cholinergic enzyme activity. The direction and degree of change of enzyme activity depended on the period when undernutrition was imposed as well as the brain region. In the forebrain ChE and AChE activities were altered, in the brainstem, ChAc, ChE and AChE activities were altered, and in the cerebellum ChAc activity was altered. The effect on the activity of the individual cholinergic enzymes was complex and was not the same in the different regions of the brain or even for the same brain region exposed to undernutrition during different periods of development. These results along with earlier work indicate that cholinergic enzyme activity in brain of undernourished rats can be altered by both the period of development when undernutrition is imposed and the amount of environmental stimulation.     

延髓中缝核区注射谷氨酸钠降低大鼠动脉血压的作用

本工作研究了大鼠延髓中缝核在心血管活动调整中的作用。通过埋植套管向大鼠延髓中缝核区注射神经元兴奋剂谷氨酸钠5-μg可明显降低血压,抑制交感神经传出活动,心率无显著改变。降血压效应可被脊髓蛛网膜下腔注射5-HT受体阻断剂肉桂硫胺50μg,或腹腔注射赛庚啶15mg/kg所部分对抗;并可被皮下注射阿片受体阻断剂纳洛酮1mc/kg所削弱。结果提示:延髓中缝核-脊髓5-HT下行通路对脊髓的血管调节功能起抑制性影响,内源性阿片样物质可能参与该机制。     

鼠脑少突胶质细胞三碘甲腺原氨酸（T＿3）受体的─过性表达

本实验采用三碘甲腺原氨酸（Ｔ３）核受体单抗和半乳糖脑苷酯（ＧＣ）多抗的双抗体免疾细胞化学法,观察了体外次生培养的大鼠脑少突胶质细胞成熟过程中核Ｔ３受体的表达。结果发现核Ｔ３受体主要存在于未成熟的少突胶质细胞中（阳性率约８０％）,而在成熟的少突胶质细胞中仅占４４％。这一现象可能是甲状腺激素在脑成熟过程中具有一段关键作用时期的分子机理之一。     

成年与老年大鼠耳蜗核胆碱乙酰化酶免疫组织化学研究

采用免疫组织化学Ｓ－Ｐ法,对成年（２～３月龄）和老年（２０～３６月龄）Ｗｉｓｔａｒ大鼠耳蜗核组织进行ＣｈＡＴ免疫组织化学显色,并利用计算机图像分析系统对免疫反应阳性细胞进行计数。观察老年大鼠耳蜗核组织胆碱乙酰化酶（ＣｈＡＴ）免疫反应的变化,研究其与老年性聋的发病关系。结果发现ＣｈＡＴ免疫反应阳性神经元主要散在分布于背侧核（ＤＣＮ）的梭型细胞层,老年大鼠耳蜗背侧核ＣｈＡＴ阳性细胞数目少于成年组（Ｐ＜０．００１）。实验结果提示,耳蜗核ＣｈＡＴ阳性细胞数目的减少可能与老年性聋的发病有关。

延髓中缝核区注射胃泌素增强大鼠胃运动的作用

本工作用清醒大鼠作慢性实验,采用应力传感器记录胃运动,观察向延髓中缝核内微量注射五肽胃泌素(G_5)对胃运动的影响。实验结果表明,中缝核注射1μl含0.005μg、0.01μg、0.05μg G_5均明显增强胃运动。在中缝核注射抗胃泌素血清和切断迷走神经均可取消这一效应。提示在中缝核内胃泌素参与胃窦运动的调节,并可能通过迷走神经起作用。用免疫组化PAP 方法可显示出大鼠延髓中缝核区有胃泌素免疫反应性神经细胞和神经纤维,这些胃泌素神经细胞可能在调节胃运动功能中起重要作用。     

大鼠海马—小脑皮层—小脑深部核团投射的电生理学和HRP研究

本文用电生理学和HRP示踪法,研究了大鼠海马-小脑皮层投射的空间分布,小脑皮层的海马投射区与其深部核团间的纤维联系。 电生理学的实验结果表明,刺激背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区,均可使小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶的浦肯野细胞产生顺行多突触的诱发简单锋电位和复杂锋电位反应。提示背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区与小脑皮层之间有经苔状纤维和攀缘纤维的多突触投射。实验证明,大鼠的这一投射的终止区域,集中在小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶中线外侧0.8—1.4mm的范围内;并且来自CA_1区的投射以对侧性为主,CA_3区的投射以同侧性为主。HRP示踪的实验表明,背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区在小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶的投射区是小脑纵区组构的间位区,该区皮层与间位核之间存在着交互投射关系。
