采用免疫组织化学SABC法,对甲硫氨酸脑啡肽(M-ENK)在柄袋沙蠋体壁及其附属物鳃、疣足和消化系统各器官中的分布进行了研究.结果 表明,柄袋沙蠋体壁、鳃、疣足以及各消化器官的上皮细胞中均有不同程度的M-ENK阳性反应,且体壁、消化道的食管、肠、直肠中阳性反应多集中在上皮细胞的游离端;体壁肌肉中环肌层M-ENK阳性反应比纵肌层强;食道侧囊上皮细胞和结缔组织中也有M-ENK分布.M-ENK在柄袋沙蠋的体壁、鳃、疣足及消化系统各器官中均有分布,且分布密度不同,可能与各部位的功能有关.     

栉孔扇贝消化系统γ-氨基丁酸的免疫组织化学定位

采用抗生物素-生物素-过氧化物酶法(ABC法)的免疫组织化学技术,对γ-氨基丁酸(GABA)在栉孔扇贝(Chlamys farreri)消化系统各组织器官中的分布进行了定位研究。结果表明,栉孔扇贝的唇瓣、口唇、肠道的上皮细胞均呈GABA阳性反应,阳性反应物质呈颗粒状分布且多集中于上皮细胞游离端;胃上皮中未见GABA阳性反应;肝胰腺的上皮细胞及部分结缔组织中呈现GABA阳性反应,其中部分上皮细胞中的阳性反应物质呈团块状分布。GABA在栉孔扇贝消化系统除胃以外的各器官均有分布,推测其可能参与消化功能的调节作用。

应用过氧化物酶标记的链霉卵白素免疫细胞化学技术对鳜、大口黑鲈、尼罗非鲫、短盖巨脂鲤、鲇、黄颡鱼、黄鳝和乌鳢等8种有胃真骨鱼消化道粘膜中降钙素免疫活性内分泌细胞进行了免疫细胞化学定位及形态学比较．结果表明,在尼罗非鲫、鳜和大口黑鲈消化道的任何部位均未见到阳性反应。另外5种鱼消化道的不同部位可不同程度地见到阳性细胞,其中黄颡鱼的整个消化道均有降钙素免疫活性的阳性反应;黄鳝和乌鳢的肠道中则无阳性反应,但在它们的胃以及黄鳝的食道中见到阳性细胞;鲇除食道中没有发现阳性细胞外,消化道各段中均有阳性细胞的存在;短盖巨脂鲤则仅在食道中发现阳性细胞。降钙素免疫活性细胞在肠道中的形态大多为长校形,胞体膨大,胞核是空油状,有两个相对的胞突分别伸向肠腔和基膜;胃中的降钙素细胞在位于胃上皮细胞之间时形状多为较短的梭形,而位于胃腺中时其形状较前者更加粗、短,胞突短小,常常呈不规则形状沿胃腺管边缘分布。     

日本血吸虫的组织化学研究 Ⅰ.成虫体内核酸、氨基酸、糖元和磷酸酶的分布

1.应用组织化学的方法研究了从小白鼠肠系膜静脉内取出的日本血吸虫成虫体内核酸、氨基酸、糖元和磷酸酶的分布情况。 2.成虫体内核酸的分布虽较广泛,但以雄虫的睾丸、雌虫的卵巢和卵黄腺中的含量为最高。在睾丸中主要为DNA,而卵巢和卵黄腺中则为RNA。 3.虫体的肌纤维、卵巢和睾丸中的生殖细胞核、卵黄细胞和肠管上皮细胞对显示酪氨酸、色氨酸和组氨酸的偶联重氮反应呈现阳性。角皮下肌层、实质组织细胞和卵黄细胞的颗粒滴呈强的溴酚蓝阳性反应。而对铁氰化物的反应仅卵黄细胞的颗粒滴呈现阳性。 4.糖元主要分布于虫体的实质组织和各种肌纤维内,尤以雄虫抱雌沟附近的实质组织内含量最多。在生殖器官中,仅成熟的卵细胞胞浆含有少许。 5.成虫体表角皮含有大量的碱性磷酸酶,而卵模上皮细胞、卵黄细胞和排泄管壁亦呈阳性反应。酸性磷酸酶主要分布于虫体的角皮下肌层、实质组织细胞核、肠管上皮细胞、雌雄生殖细胞和卵黄细胞内。 6.对于日本血吸虫体内各器官组织中所含的上述各种化学物质的生理意义进行了讨论,并认为血吸虫除肠道摄食外,尚可通过体表角皮吸收碳水化合物等营养物质。     

日本七鳃鳗消化系统显微与超微结构

采用光镜和电镜技术研究日本七鳃鳗(Lampetra japonica)消化系统的组织结构。结果显示,日本七鳃鳗食道褶皱处黏膜上皮为复层立方上皮,褶皱基部为变移上皮。由于生活方式的特化,其胃退化。前肠、中肠和后肠黏膜上皮均为单层柱状上皮,其中并未发现杯状细胞,有肠腺,肠上皮有密集的纤毛,上皮细胞内各种细胞器均较丰富,肌纤维斜行。肝小叶界限不清,肝内无胆管。内分泌性胰由若干个大小不等和形状不定的细胞团组成。口腔腺上皮细胞高柱状,游离端充满酶原颗粒和微管泡系,细胞间有分泌小管。日本七鳃鳗消化器官的组织结构特点与其特殊的取食方式和进化地位密切相关。

Immunohistochemical Identification of Met-Enkephalin in Digestive System and Its Effect on Digestive Enzyme Activities of the Scallop <Emphasis Type="Italic">Chlamys farreri</Emphasis>

The study was designed to determine whether methionine-enkephalin (M-ENK) was present in the digestive system of the scallop Chlamys farreri and investigate the effects of M-ENK on the activity of amylase, protease and lipase in the digestive system of C. farreri. The results indicated that M-ENK-like material was present in the epithelium and connective tissue of labial palps, mouth labia, stomach, intestine, rectum, and hepatopancreas of the scallop C. farreri. Moreover, it was also found that many isolated small cells showing M-ENK-like immunoreactivity were scattered in the epithelial layer of intestine, and many isolated big epithelial cells showing M-ENK-like immunoreactivity were scattered in tubules of hepatopancreas of the scallop. The activity levels of amylase and lipase in crystalline style, hepatopancreas and intestine were enhanced at 1 h after injection of exogenous M-ENK into adductor muscle of the scallops, whereas protease activity levels were significantly suppressed. Our report constitutes the first characterization of M-ENK in the digestive system of scallop C. farreri and investigates the effects of M-ENK on the activities of digestive enzymes of mollusk for the first time. The results suggest an involvement of M-ENK in the functional regulation of the digestive system of C. farreri.     

Effect of methionine-enkephalin on xanthophore aggregation

The intracranial injection of an opioid antagonist (naloxone) caused aggregation of xanthophores in goldfish scales. This aggregating effect produced by naloxone was inhibited by an injection of methionine-enkephalin (M-ENK). M-ENK, when injected together with melatonin which normally produces aggregation of xanthophores, interfered with the effect of melatonin by inhibiting the aggregation. An injection of naloxone together with melatonin showed no difference in the aggregation from that of either naloxone or melatonin alone. The possibility of interaction between melatonin and M-ENK was discussed.     

Influence of opioid peptides on human neutrophil apoptosis and activation in vitro

BACKGROUND: It has been shown that cells of the immune system release opioid peptides and possess receptors for them. The concentrations of opioid peptides in the peripheral circulation rapidly increase during inflammation and acute stress response. AIMS: The effect of opioid peptides Met-enkephalin (M-ENK) and beta-endorphin (beta-END) on the oxidative metabolism of normal human neutrophils and their death by apoptosis in vitro was investigated. METHODS: Isolated from peripheral blood, neutrophils were incubated in the presence or absence of 10(-6) to 10(-10) M of M-ENK and beta-END for 12 and 18 h. Apoptosis of neutrophils was determined in vitro by flow cytometric analysis of cellular DNA content and Annexin V-FITC protein binding to the cell surface. The MTT-reduction assay was employed to estimate the oxidative metabolism of neutrophils. RESULTS: Treatment with M-ENK caused a significant increase in apoptotic cells after 18 h of culture: *0 M (control) versus 10(-10) M, p < or = 0.02; **10(-10) M versus 10(-10) M, p < or = 0.02. Treatment with beta-END caused a significant increase in apoptotic cells after 12 h of culture: 0 M versus 10(-8) M, p < or = 0.03; **0 M versus 10(-10) M, p < or = 0.04. We found the significant increase in MTT reduction by neutrophils in the presence of M-ENK and beta-END both before and after the culture. However, the ability of neutrophils to reduce the MTT salt to formazan decreased significantly after the culture. CONCLUSIONS: We observed that the in vitro effect of opioid peptides on the neutrophil survival and their functional state was time and dose dependent. The presence of antioxidants in the culture medium modifies neutrophil survival.     

Protection of mice from malaria after co-administration of recombinant mouse granulocyte-macrophage colony- stimulating factor and methionine-enkephalin

The protective effect of co-administration of recombinant mouse granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rmGM-CSF) and synthetic peptide met-enkephalin (M-ENK) against blood-induced Plasmodium berghei infection in Swiss mice was investigated. Mice co-administered with rmGM-CSF (10.0 mug/kg) and M-ENK (2.0 mg/kg) x 3/day, i.p., beginning on day -1 and continuing through day +4 after the initiation of infection, showed significant suppression (p < 0.05) (sometimes even complete elimination) of parasitaemia compared to vehicle-treated controls. However, when administered separately, neither of these agents induced any detectable protective effect. Surprisingly, mice similarly co-administered with rmGM-CSF (10.0 mug/kg) and higher doses of M-ENK (10.0 mg/kg), showed no protection. Polyclonal neutralizing (100%) antibody to rmGM-CSF abrogated the combined protective effect of these agents. Additionally, naloxone (10.0 mg/kg/day x 6, i.p.), a non-selective, opioid receptor antagonist, also blocked the combined protection. Mice that survived the challenge showed a significant increase (p < 0.05) in total circulating leukocytes counts, and the pool-size and the phagocytic activity of both the peritoneal and splenic macrophages, ex vivo. Silica (3.0 mg/mouse, i.v.) abrogated the combined protective effect of rmGM-CSF and M-ENK. These results indicate that co-administration of rmGM-CSF and dose dependent quantities of M-ENK in P. berghei-infected mice can protect against malaria, apparently through macrophage-mediated mechanisms.     

动脉壁脑啡肽的含量,存在部位及作用途径

用放射免疫法测得兔动脉的亮氨酸脑啡肽(L-ENK)和甲硫氨酸脑啡肽(M-ENK)样免疫活性物的含量(pg/mg组织湿重)分别为耳动脉38.99±17.29,134.67±8.11;肾动脉31.10±7.76,93.60±18.22,肠系膜动脉25.70 13.60,88.43±18.16。动物经注射交感神经末梢化学切割剂6-OHDA后,这三种动脉中L-ENK样免疫活性物的含量均明显下降(P<0.001);切除颈上神经节使支配耳动脉的交感神经溃变后,或离体耳动脉条受电场刺激后,脑啡肽(ENK)样免疫活性物的含量也都显著下降(P<0.001);但注射利血平则无明显影响,用荧光法测定培育动脉条的浴槽液中NE的含量,观察到ENK可抑制电场刺激所引起的NE的释放。结果提示,动脉壁的L-ENK和M-ENK存在于交感神经末梢中,它可因受电场刺激而释放,可能通过激活突触前膜阿片受体,减少交感神经末梢释放NE,从而抑制动脉的收缩活动。     

Immunohistochemical distribution of phosphatidylglucoside using anti-phosphatidylglucoside monoclonal antibody (DIM21)

The immunohistochemical distribution of phosphatidylglucoside (PhGlc) in organs obtained from human autopsy cases was investigated using the DIM21 antibody. Immunohistochemical staining was performed on formaline-fixed, paraffin-embedded sections using the simple stain peroxidase method. The sections were then subjected to antigen retrieval by microwave irradiation in citrate buffer. PhGlc expression was observed in not only the epithelial but also the non-epithelial components of several visceral organs. Squamous and glandular epithelial cells were positive for PhGlc in several organs. The surface areas of the epithelium, particularly the squamous epithelium, were positive. Mesothelial cells were also positive in some organs. Endothelial cells, polymorphonuclear (PMN) cells are positive in several organs. Macrophage is positive in many organs. Epithelial cells of the gallbladder were positive, however, the intrahepatic bile ducts were not positive. In the brain tissue, astroglial cells, the chorioide plexus, the pituitary gland, and ependymal cells were positive. Further investigation is indispensable in order to establish a relationship between cell differentiation and PhGlc expression.     

Intracerebroventricular beta-endorphin increases food intake of rats

B-Endorphin (B-END), met-enkepalin (M-ENK), and DAla²NMe⁵-met-enkephalinamide were administered intracerebroventricularly to rats and effects on the ingestion of a liquid diet were examined. B-END significantly increased food intake in a half-hour test at a dose of 200 ng/rat. Lower or higher doses did not affect food intake. Neither M-ENK or the synthetic enkephalin analog affected ingestion of the liquid diet. These findings demonstrate rapid action of an endorphin on food intake administered at a lower dose than has previously been reported and suggest a specificity for B-END in the endorphinergically mediated hyperphagic response.     

人胚鼻咽上皮发育分化与c—erbB—2的表达变化

应用免疫组织化学方法对人胚鼻咽的ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２表达情况进行了研究．结果表明,人胚鼻咽上皮的ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２表达没有发育阶段性与鼻咽部位置的差异,而与鼻咽上皮的种类密切相关．在假复层纤毛柱状上皮中,以纤毛层的ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２表达阳性信号最强;在典型的过渡型上皮中,ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２阳性反应细胞主要分布于上皮的下五分之四左右的区域,表层细胞无阳性信号出现;而在复层鳞状上皮中,ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２阳性细胞的位置进一步下移,主要分布于上皮的下三分之二左右的区域．这些结果提示,ｃ－ｅｒｂＢ－２在人胚鼻咽上皮中的表达随细胞分化程度的增加而降低直至完全没有表达．     

一氧化氮抑制海马神经元兴奋的机制研究

研究青霉素诱发培养的海马CA1区神经元细胞产生的一氧化氮（NO）在兴奋过程中的抑制机制。用激光扫描共聚焦显微镜观察发现100IU／ml的青霉素可诱发一种晚而慢的NO合成模式。NO合成酶抑制剂L－NNA（0－10μmol/L）可剂量依赖地抑制NO的合成,并促进谷氨酸水的升高。同时发现L－NAA（1、10μmol/L）可显著促进进蛋氨酸脑啡肽（M－ENK）的升高）,而对强啡肽－B（DYN－B）的水平没有影响。100μmol/L的β－FNA（一种M－ENK受体抑制剂）可抑制L－NNA诱导的谷氨酸水平的升高,而100μmol/L的nor-BIN(一种DYNU受体抑制剂）对此没有影响。以上结果提示：1000IU／ml的青霉素诱导合成的NHO可通过抑制M－ENK水平来抑制神经元的兴奋。
