Detection of renal cell carcinoma-associated markers via proteome- and other 'ome'-based analyses.

Proteome analysis has rapidly developed in the post-genome era and is now widely accepted as the complementary technology for genetic profiling. It has been shown to be a powerful tool for studying human diseases and for identifying novel prognostic, diagnostic and therapeutic markers. This review focuses on the identification of new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for renal cell carcinoma using different 'ome'-based technologies.     

亚硒酸钠对四氯化碳损伤草鱼肝原代细胞与肝组织的保护作用

不同浓度四氯化碳（ＣＣｌ４）对草鱼肝原代细胞的损伤实验中,ＣＣｌ４浓度为１０μｌ／ｍｌ可引起细胞血清中丙氨酸氨基转移酶（ＡＬＴ）、天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶（ＡＳＴ）、乳酸脱氢酶（ＬＤＨ）逸出量与细胞破损率显著增高,培养液中添加亚硒酸钠（Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３）０．２μｇ／ｍｌ,则可降低ＡＬＴ、ＡＳＴ、ＬＤＨ的逸出量,减轻细胞破损程度。Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３保护实验中,Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ２＋ＣＣｌ４组预先腹腔注射（ｉｐ）０．１ｍｇ／ｋｇ．ｂｗ连续三日,末次ｉｐＣＣｌ４混合液１ｍｌ／ｋｇ．ｂｗ,２４ｈ内肝组织超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）相对活性比ＣＣｌ４组提高达９１．５％,第七日仍提高达５４．５％,与对照组的水平基本接近;血清中丙氨酸氨基转氨酶（ＡＬＴ）水平逐渐降低。本实验还观察到Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３可引起肝脂质过氧化物显著降低,肝微粒体蛋白含量与细胞色素Ｐ—４５０活性升高;组织切片观察显示肝组织损伤程度减轻,７２ｈ后细胞核增多。表明Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３可提高草鱼肝清除自由基能力,增强肝脏解毒功能。     

原位缺口平移标记断裂DNA技术及其在检测流行性出血热尸检和实验动物组织中细胞凋亡和早期死亡的应用

原位缺口平移技术（ＩＳＮＴ）已被用于检测细胞核中ＤＮＡ断裂鉴别尸检组织中细胞的凋亡和坏死断裂、流行性出血热（ＥＨＦ）组织中存在散在单个细胞变性死亡和灶性梗死样坏死,前者带有细胞凋亡的特征。本文以ＥＨＦ肝脏和实验性病毒感染鼠脑组织为例,应用缺口平移法,在ＤＮＡ聚合酶或Ｋｌｅｎｏｗ酶的作用下,将地高辛标记的ｄＵＴＰ掺入合成到ＤＮＡ的断裂部位,通过碱性磷酸酶标抗地高辛抗体免疫组化法显示细胞ＤＮＡ的断裂,检测和鉴别细胞的凋亡和坏死。为分析死后解剖时间间隔及组织固定时间对该方法的影响,本文选用死后２～１４０ｈ尸检、经常规固定石蜡包埋后存放１０～３５年的标本和在１０％福尔马林固定了１０～３５年之后再进行常规处理的标本。实验时用蛋白酶Ｋ（ＰＫ）消化前后对比并分别在标记反应液中略去ＤＮＡ聚合酶作为阴性对照,用ＤＮＡ酶消化组织人为制造ＤＮＡ缺日作为阳性对照。结果发现,未经ＰＫ消化的组织,仅灶性肝细胞核ＩＳＮＴ标记阳性,经ＰＫ消化后,散在的带有凋亡特征的肝细胞胞核也出现阳性,灶性肝细胞胞核标记染色增强,但无论是蛋白酶消化与否,明确梗死样坏死的肝细胞均不被标记。结果还发现,死后２～２４ｈ内尸检组织和长时间（１０～３４年）存放的石     

肝炎平对D－氨基半乳精所致肝损害保护作用的酶组织化学研究

本实验采用Ｄ－氨基半乳糖（Ｄ－ＧａｌＮ）诱导的大鼠急性肝损伤模型,观察大鼠肝脏组织化学的变化,探讨肝炎平对急性肝损伤的保护作用。实验分为四组,即正常对照组、模型组、肝炎平及肝得健保护组。结果表明：肝炎平对肝细胞膜系统有一定的保护作用。肝炎平组和肝得健组ＳＤＨ、ＣＣＯ及ＣｈＥ活性明显高于模型组,且与正常对照组相近。本实验模型组ＡＣＰ的活性明显高于正常组,而肝炎平组ＡＣＰ的活性明显低于模型组,与正常对照组无显著性差异。提示：肝炎平可显著改善因Ｄ－氨基半乳糖所致肝损害的作用。且其对肝细胞的保护作用与肝得健一致。

20-羟基蜕皮酮对蓖麻蚕蛹体液免疫的调节作用(英)

本研究指出20—羟基蜕皮酮(20-OHE)参加蓖麻蚕蛹对大肠杆菌的体液免疫反应。20-OHE的作用方式是多方面的,包括提高血淋巴蛋白质含量,产生抗菌蛋白,增加溶菌酶活性,和激活原酚氧化酶系统。这表明多个免疫控制系统参与蓖麻蚕蛹体液免疫反应的可能性。     

猪肝刺激物质pHSS对离体肝细胞DNA合成的影响

应用[~3H]TdR掺入离体培养大鼠肝细胞DNA的方法,测定由本室提取的pHSS的生物活性。结果表明,pHSS可显著促进原代培养大鼠肝细胞的DNA合成,其促进率约为对照组的10倍左右。培养液中血清浓度对pHSS的生物活性表达有显著影响,不同浓度血清可以使pHSS表现出不同的量效关系,这些结果在Buffello大鼠肝细胞系的实验中得到进一步证实。在低剂量pHSS的刺激下,不同年龄大鼠肝细胞的[~3H]TdR掺入率无显著差异。但高剂量时,pHSS对幼鼠作用不明显。     

Absorption and imagery locate immune responses in the body

Imagery instructions specifying mucosal immunity should alter mucosal immunoglobulin A (m-IgA) levels in high absorbers, whose intent concentration evokes intense physiological responses. After screening for health status, 121 high or low absorbers were randomly assigned to either Relaxation Alone (R), Relaxation with Mucosal Immune Imagery (RI), or Vigilance Task control (VT). Before and after one 60-min intervention, subjects reported theory-relevant psychological variables and provided 5ml whole saliva, which was immediately frozen and assayed lateren masse with enzyme-linked immunoabsorbence (ELISA). MANOVA analysis of psychological variables replicated past research. ANOVA on residualized m-IgA found Time × Absorption interaction and Condition main effects. High more than low absorbers responded to relaxation with mucosal immune imagery by producing higher m-IgA. High absorbers appear able to locate where their immune systems will respond. Individual differences like absorption level need to be emphasized in diagnosis and treatment responsiveness.National Institutes of HealthM.

Fatty acid composition of fat body and malpighian tubules of the tenebrionid beetle, Zophobas atratus: Significance in eicosanoid-mediated physiology

Total and phospholipid fatty acid composition of fat body and Malpighian tubules from two larval stages, pupae and adults, of Zophobas atratus were analyzed. Saturated and unsaturated C16 and C18 fatty acids were major components and varied by life stage and tissue source. Eicosanoid-precursor fatty acids, including 20:3n-6, 20:4n-6 and 20:5n-3, were present in low quantities and varied by life stage and tissue source. 20:3n-6 was always present in the lowest proportions, indicating that eicosanoids derived from 20:4n-6 and 20:5n-3 (the 2- and 3-series) are likely to be of greater physiological significance in this insect. Fatty acid composition of Z. atratus fat body and Malpighian tubules was independent of diet, suggesting that this insect controls its fatty acid composition to meet the needs of individual tissues and ontogenetic constraints.     

REGULATORY ROLE OF 20-HYDROXYECDYSONE ON HUMORAL IMMUNITY IN THE PUPAE OF THE INDIAN SILKWORM,PHZLOSAMIA CYNTHIA RICINI*

Abstract The present study shows that 20-hydroxyecdysone(20-OHE) participates in the humoral immune responses of Philosamia Cynthia ricini, either normal or debrained pupae, to the E. coli. The mode of action of 20—-OHE is multiple. It raises hemolymph protein content, makes antibacterial proteins be produced, increases lysozyme activity, and activates prophenoloxidase system. It is possible that several immune control systems are involved.
