The clinical significance of antisperm antibodies (ASA) is highly controversial. A significant percentage of infertile men and women present immunity to spermatozoa, suggesting that ASA may interfere with the fertilizing capacity. ASA can act negatively on sperm parameters, sperm-cervical mucus interaction, gamete fusion and possibly also on the first step of embryonic development. ASA are present in approximately 2.8% to 26% of the male population and 0.2% to 1.6% of women. The pathogenesis of immunity to spermatozoa had not been fully elucidated: breakdown of normal protective mechanisms, i.e. blood-testis barrier, or epithelial barrier in women, and other mechanisms of immunological sperm tolerance, such as regulation of suppressor T lymphocytes. The indication for antisperm antibody testing is based on clinical and laboratory findings of infertile patients. In men, indictions for ASA testing include a history of genital disease, surgery for genital abnormalities, vasectomy, obstruction or injuries of the male genital tract, infection of accessory glands, long-standing infertility, alteration of semen parameters (agglutination, motility), mucus penetration, and reduced fertilizing capacity in IVF. In many cases, no etiological cause of autoimmunity is found and a genetic predisposition has been suggested. A majority of women do not develop antisperm antibodies, despite repeated contact with spermatozoa during their sexual life. Upper genital tract infection is the main cause of isoimmunization in females, although sexual practices, endometriosis, surgery for cervical neoplasia, recurrent spontaneous abortion and long-term infertility may also be involved. Sperm-cervical mucus impairment is the most obvious effect of immunization in women associated with IVF failure. Autoantibodies are frequently associated with antisperm antibodies. One of the consequences of the success of ICSI has been a decreased research effort to further the understanding of the origin and relevance of antisperm antibodies and specific antibody-antigen interactions. A better understanding of the natural history of immunological infertility would be useful for patient conseiling and to develop the most effective, efficient and safest management strategies. Such data could also be useful for the development of new tests and immunological methods of male contraception. 相似文献

Several studies have shown a good correlation between sperm motility and fertility though the microscopic evaluation of the percentage of motile sperm is highly subjective by nature. Therefore in the last decade, various objectives methods have been proposed to overcome this problem. Two types of methods were developed: The methods based on the analysis of images obtained by microphotography, microcinematography and microvideography and the global, undirect methods based on physical principles. Several systems based on video and image analysis (Computer Aided Sperm Analysis, CASA) have been developed and are used in numerous laboratories of reproductive biology. CASA technology offers the possibility to analyse some characteristics of sperm motion which are related to the fertilization potential and to develop new parameters related to some important aspects of sperm behavior such as hyperactivation. However, there is a large amount of interactions between the operator and the CASA machine. CASA instruments are not “ready-to-use” robots: the reliability of CASA depends largely on the expertise and training of the user and the application of standardized procedures and quality control schemes. By contrast, there is only minimal interaction between the operator and the Sperm Quality Anlyser which is a new device measuring and index of sperm motility highly correlated to the concentration of progressively motile sperm. The device uses light passed through a small sample of semen introduced in a capillary tube to detect variations in optical density that result from moving particles. The reproducibility of the measurements is excellent, the device is easy to use and this is a potentially useful tool for field-work studies. Further investigations of this device in the managment of male infertility is warranted. Finally, both types of objectives approaches are complementary to the conventional analysis of sperm motility and they will not replace it. Standardized procedures have been proposed by the World Health Organization for the subjective evaluation of sperm motility. Such procedures are very useful to reduce significantly the intra- and interlaboratory variations but internal and external quality controls schemes indicate that they are not sufficient to achieve acceptable levels of variation and regular quality controls followed by the definition and the application of corrective procedures are required. 相似文献

Résumé L'injection de substances irritantes de nature chimique variée perturbe les mécanismes qui contrÔlent la multiplication des hépatocytes du rat.Les très jeunes rats réagissent de faÇon intense et reproductible. 15 heures après l'injection il se produit une augmentation brève et intense du nombre des cellules entrant en phase S de sorte que les divisions cellulaires, qui normalement auraient été réparties sur les 30 ou 40 prochaines heures, débutent en l'espace de 2 heures seulement. La croissance hépatique a pris une importante avance qui est suivie par une période de diminution du nombre des mitoses due à une rétroaction inhibitrice.La réaction des rats plus âgés met en évidence un mécanisme inhibiteur permanent qui entraÎne une réponse moins intense et moins régulière.La production d'hépatocytes binucléés et polyploÏdes parait liée à ce mécanisme inhibiteur.La régularité et la sensibilité des réactions des très jeunes rats en fait un matériel de choix pour l'étude des mécanismes régulateurs de la croissance hépatique.
Control of multiplication and polyploidy of rat hepatocytesA study of the perturbations of physiological regulation induced by injection of irritants
Summary The injection of irritating substances of various chemical nature disturbs the mechanisms regulating the multiplication of rat hepatocytes.The reaction of baby rats is intense and reproducible. It results, 15 hours after the injection, in an increase of the number of cells entering the S phase, so that practically all the divisions which would normally have been scattered over 36 hours are initiated within 2 hours. This burst of synchronized mitosis corresponding to a 36 hours advance in the hepatic growth is followed by a decrease of mitoses due to a feed-back inhibition.The reaction of older rats brings to evidence a permanent inhibitory mechanism that results in a less regular and intensive response.The production of binucleated and polyploÏd hepatocytes seems to be correlated to this inhibitory mechanism.The regularity and sensivity of the baby rat reactions make them a choice material for the study of hepatic growth.相似文献

Résumé Les variations d'abondance des 2 cochenillesPhenacoccus manihoti Matile-Ferrero etFerrisia virgata Cockerell et des 2 prédateurs CoccinellidaeHyperaspis senegalensis hottentotta Mulsant etExochomus flaviventris Mader sont étudiées dans une parcelle de manioc.
La colonisation de cette dernière parE. flaviventris est précoce, en présence de faibles niveaux numériques des 2 proies, mais avec une dominance deF. virgata; celle d'H. s. hottentotta intervient un mois plus tard en relation semble-t-il avec la présence d'une population deP. manihoti abondante et jeune.
Nos observations font ressortir une dynamique des populations propre à chaque espèce de coccinelle, conditionnée par l'abondance
de l'une ou l'autre des proies, la structure des colonies de chaque cochenille et les conditions climatiques (température)
qui interviennent en synergie. Ainsi, la réponse numérique deH. s. hottentotta, plus forte que celle d'E. flaviventris, semble en relation plus étroite avecP. manihoti. PourE. flaviventris il appara?t difficile de séparer ce qui revient à chaque espèce de cochenille:F. virgata joue sans doute un r?le important pour son implantation dans les champs, puis sa raréfaction, mais c'est probablementP. manihoti qui permet l'augmentation de ses effectifs.

Summary In a previous paper, we have used the density of the population as a sort of measure of the unknown size n of the isolates in Dahlberg's model, and shown an inverse relation between the coefficient of inbreeding and the density of the arrondissements. In the present paper, as the considered communes are smaller territorial subdivisions than arrondissements, we used, instead of the density, the population size of the communes. The results are even more eloquent as before: the inbreeding coefficients are large when the observed population size is small; the relative importance of second cousin marriages (233) versus cousin marriages (222) is greater in the latest period considered. The basic data have been collected for each commune in Belgium by Centre National de Radiobiologie et de Génétique. 相似文献

Summary The -amylase formed in germinating barley has been separated into six isozymes by means of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. These isozymes do not appear from the beginning of germination but are formed gradually so that after six days all six -amylase isozymes are present.When gibberellic acid is added to the culture medium the production of the -amylase isozymes is accelerated considerably, whereas the addition of kinetin has no influence at all on the formation of the -amylase isozymes.The -amylase induced by gibberellic acid in the aleurone layers of isolated barley endosperms apparently consists of five isozymes, a number that does not change upon further incubation.The action of phytohormones such as gibberellic acid and kinetin on the formation of -amylase and its isozymes during the germination of barley is discussed. 相似文献

Summary The antigenic relation between five rickettsiae pathogenic to Invertebrates have been studied by agglutination. This comparison shows that the genusRickettsiella does not form and homogeneous group from an immunological point of view. Two separate serological groups are defined:R. melolonthae, R. tipulae andR. cetonidarum belong to the Ist group;grylli andR. armadillidii are forming the IInd group now.

Among the methods used to carry out measurements of thyroid, echography is the best because it is noninvasive and more specific. The goals of this study were to determine the normal thyroid volume of the Burkinabe child; to study the parameters which induce a variation of thyroid volume and to compare our values with those from other localities. Through a cross-sectional study, 240 children from the town of Ouagadougou benefited from a thyroid echography. Thus the height (h), the transverse diameter (dt) and the thickness (e) were measured. Volume (vl) of each lobe was estimated by: vl = h × dt × e × 3.14/6. The total volume (VT) is the sum of the volumes of each lobe, the isthmus being neglected. A correlation set at the threshold p < 0.001 has been carried out between VT and some anthropometric parameters. The following averages were observed: before one year, the average volume is of 0.51 L ± 0.21; from one to three years, it is of 0.95 mL ± 0.33; from four to six years, the average volume is of 1.35 mL ± 0.43; from seven to nine years, it is of 1.95 mL ± 0.62. From 10 to 12 years, the average volume is of 3.01 mL ± 1.08 and it is of 5.32 mL ± 2.07 from 13 to 15 years. It stands out that the VT is positively associated with the age (r = 0.82), with the size (r = 0.73), with the weight (r = 0.81) and with body surface (r = 0.78). Moreover, the VT is higher among boys than in girls beyond one year of age. This parameter varies according to the area of origin. Lastly, compared with the American, European and Asian averages, our values are smaller. This study enabled us to establish our own standards which we will be able from now on to use in daily practice. However, multicentric studies associated with thyroid and sexual hormones blood levels measurements must be undertaken to ascertain these data. 相似文献

Summary This study considers the earlier growth stages of Coccidium Coelotropha durchoni in its host, Nereis diversicolor. Before evolving into free trophozoites and gamontes in coeliac fluid, the parasites remain in muscular and coeliac cells in microscopic intracellular form. Electron microscope reveals that these stages show an intermediary fine structure between that of a sporozoite — from which they keep some typical characteristics such as the conoid, the fibers and the involuted tubuli — and that of the future free trophozoites. The wall consisting in two clear membrans is provided with one or several micropores. The classical cytoplasmic organites clearly stand out: dictyosomes show constant relationship with ergastoplasm, the mitochondria contain short inner tubuli. Besides the paraglycogen granules and lipoid vacuoles, at least three types of vacuoles may be observed. Peculiar topographic relationship connects mitochondria and paraglycogen granules probably in formation. In the nucleus with classical membrane and heterogeneous structure, a rather voluminous nucleolus may be seen. 相似文献

Résumé Les remainements intestinaux affectant la paroi intestinale sont quantifiés chez les larves d'un Amphibien Anoure,Alytes obstetricans, traitées par la thyroxine. La fraction correspondant à chaque zone composant la paroi est déterminée sur coupe. La répartition et la fréquence des noyaux marqués sont recherchées chez des larves ayant reçu de la thymidine tritiée.L'indice de marquage nucléaire de l'épithélium primaire tend vers zéro durant les 3 premiers jours du traitement. Ces résultats reflètent un ralentissement de la croissance du tissue, précédant sa dégénérescence et son élimination complète au 14ème jour d'immersion dans la solution hormonale.Dès de 3ème jour de traitement, un épithélium secondaire se développe à partir de cellules-souches basales. Son indice de marquqge croît, culmine au 9ème jour avec une valeur proche de 50%, puis s'abaisse. La prolifération cellulaire est plus modérée dans la zone extra-épithéliale, qui s'épaissit toutefois au cours de cette métamorphose provoquée.
Quantitative analysis of intestinal changes and the evolution of DNA synthesis in thyroxine-treated larvae ofAlytes obstetricans. (Amphibia, Anura)
Summary Changes in the intestinal wall ofAlytes obstetricans (Amphibia, Anura) were quantified during thyroxine treatment. The relative proportion of each intestinal wall component was determined in tissue sections. Autoradiographic studies on intestine with3H-thymidine revealed the distribution and frequency of labeled nuclei.The labeling index in the primary epithelium falls to zero by 3 days. Thyroxine treatment induces a decrease in the growth rate of this tissue, just before its degeneration and complete elimination by 14 days.Three days after T4-treatment, a secondary epithelium develops from basal stem cells. Its labeling index rises to a maximum of about 50% by 9 days, and thereafter declines. Cell proliferation is less marked in the extraepithelial zone, which nevertheless thickens during this thyroxine-induced metamorphosis.相似文献
