Changes in pulmonary Cu−Zn contents in superior mesenteric artery occlusion shock of rabbit

Contents of Cu and Zn of into-pulmonary blood (IPB), out-pulmonary blood (OPB), Lung tissue, and supernatant and macrophages of Lung Lavage were determined in superior mesenteric artery occlusion (SMAO) shock of rabbits. Zn of pulmonary tissue was 11.42 +/- 0.60 and 14.52 +/- 1.78 (micrograms/g wet wt) in SMAO shock and control groups, respectively. Content of Zn was found to be lower, Cu was not changed, and Cu/Zn ratio increased in lung tissue in SMAO shock. Contents of Cu and Zn in other samples were not changed. The results suggest that lower Zn in lung tissue related to acute lung injury.     

Randomised controlled trial of short term treatment to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in patients with duodenal ulcer.

OBJECTIVE--To determine whether one week''s drug treatment is sufficient to eradicate Helicobacter pylori in patients with duodenal ulcer. DESIGN--Single blind, randomised controlled trial. SETTING--Specialised ulcer clinic in a teaching hospital. PATIENTS--155 patients with H pylori and a duodenal ulcer verified endoscopically which had either bled within the previous 24 hours or was causing dyspepsia. INTERVENTIONS--Patients were allocated randomly to receive either omeprazole for four weeks plus bismuth 120 mg, tetracycline 500 mg, and metronidazole 400 mg (all four times a day) for the first week (n = 78), or omeprazole alone for four weeks (n = 77). Further endoscopy was performed four weeks after cessation of all drugs. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES--Presence or absence of H pylori (by urease testing, microscopy, and culture of antral biopsy specimens), duodenal ulcer, and side effects. RESULTS--Eradication of H pylori occurred in 70 (95%) patients taking the four drugs (95% confidence interval 86% to 97%) compared with three (4%) patients taking omeprazole alone (1% to 11%). Duodenal ulcers were found in four (5%) patients taking the four drugs (2% to 12%) and in 16 (22%) patients taking omeprazole alone (14% to 32%). Mild dizziness was the only reported side effect (six patients in each group) and did not affect compliance. CONCLUSIONS--A one week regimen of bismuth, tetracycline, and metronidazole is safe and effective in eradicating H pylori and reduces the number of duodenal ulcers four weeks after completing treatment.     

蓝藻型富营养湖泊藻量的昼夜变化节律

杭州西湖为蓝藻型富营养湖泊,根据1980年9月及11月二次昼夜分层采样调查,该湖浮游藻在一昼夜中有二次上下垂直移位,使近表层藻量形成规则或不规则的双峰型昼夜变化曲线,双峰分别出现在日照开始与日落后2h左右,认为昼夜光暗交替与其昼夜变化有一定相关关系,同时,双峰的形成与蓝藻门优势藻种对光照强度的适应性能相关。文中对其优势藻种的浮沉与日照关系作了讨论。     

毛枝南蛇藤根皮中南蛇藤素的分离鉴定及含量测定

从卫矛科南蛇藤属植物毛枝南蛇藤(Celastrus hookeri Prain)根皮中首次分离出一个红色立方体形结晶,经紫外、红外、高分辨质谱和~(13)C核磁共振谱分析,并与有关文献数据对照,确认是南蛇藤素。作者用薄层扫描和高效液相两种方法初步测定了毛枝南蛇藤根皮和根的木栓化表皮的南蛇藤素含量,结果表明南蛇藤素主要集中在根的木栓化表皮,含量在12%以上,而在整个根皮中的含量大约为1%。     

高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为

本文对高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为进行了多指标测定,结果显示,高脂组与正常组相比红细胞聚集能力增强,变形能力及膜流动性下降,表明高脂血症可能较易导致血栓形成。中药有效成分8501有对抗高脂引起的红细胞上述改变的作用,提示8501可能对血栓和动脉粥样硬化斑块形成有防治作用。     

对冷适应大鼠棕色脂肪和肝脏在非寒颤产热机制中作用的评价

本实验主要观察并比较了大鼠冷适应前后直肠温度(RT)、血清游离脂肪酸(SFFA)浓度、肩胛间棕色脂肪组织(IBAT)和肝脏cAMP含量的变化及其对去甲肾上腺素(NE)反应性的改变。结果表明:①冷适应28d大鼠在冷环境中RT稳定,NE刺激后RT上升幅度大于常温对照组(P<0.005);②冷适应1d组SFFA升高,冷适应28d组SFFA接近对照组,且对NE刺激无反应,对照组给NE后SFFA与RT一致性升高;③冷适应28d组IBAT的cAMP升高,而肝脏的cAMP含量三组间无显著性差异。NE刺激后,冷适应28d组IBAT和肝脏cAMP均升高,与RT反应一致,而对照组不变。结果提示,在5±3℃适应28d的大鼠已建立冷适应机制,非寒颤产热(NST)容量增加,在冷适应的不同时期,肝脏和IBAT调节NST的机制不同。

本研究发现银额果蝇昆明群体有丝分裂中期核型中存在B染色体,出现频率为69.1%。目前,在已研究过的来自各个地区的银额果蝇中,昆明群体的B染色体频率最高。B染色体数目为1-6条。该群体内单雌系间的B染色体数目不同,个体间和细胞间的B染色体数目也不同。在核型中,B染色体最小,形态稳定,点状,C-带和G-带呈阳性。     

The human fibroblast growth factor receptor genes: a common structural arrangement underlies the mechanisms for generating receptor forms that differ in their third immunoglobulin domain.

To determine the mechanisms by which multiple forms of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) receptors are generated, we have mapped the arrangement of exons and introns in the human FGF receptor 1 (FGFR 1) gene (flg). We found three alternative exons encoding a portion of the third immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domain of the receptor. One of these alternatives encodes a sequence that is part of a secreted form of FGFR 1. The other two encode sequences that are likely part of transmembrane forms of FGFR 1. One of these forms has not been previously reported in published cDNAs. Also, we have determined the structural organization of a portion of the human FGFR 2 gene (bek) and found a similar arrangement of alternative exons for the third Ig-like domain. The arrangement of these genes suggests that there are conserved mechanisms governing the expression of secreted FGF receptors as well as the expression of at least two distinct membrane-spanning forms of the FGF receptors. The diverse forms appear to be generated by alternative splicing of mRNA and selective use of polyadenylation signals.
