建立胃癌实验动物模型方法的研究

目的通过对人低分化胃癌细胞系SGC-7901状态和接种细胞数目的研究,建立良好的皮下接种胃癌的动物模型。方法采用腹腔注射SGC-7901细胞,使裸鼠形成腹水;光镜及电镜观察细胞状态;将购买的SGC-7901细胞以及形成腹水后的肿瘤细胞分别以1×108、1×107和1×106个进行裸鼠皮下接种,每组接种5只。观察其肿瘤形成时间、大小、状态及病理学变化。结果SGC-7901细胞接种裸鼠形成腹水后进行培养的肿瘤细胞增殖状态发生改变;购买的SGC-7901细胞以1×108及1×107接种裸鼠,在第21天肿瘤组织中央均出现出血和坏死;1×106的裸鼠第21天未见肉眼可见的肿瘤形成。腹水培养的肿瘤细胞,接种1×108的裸鼠在第21天肿瘤组织中央可见大面积的出血和坏死;接种1×107及1×106的裸鼠在第21天均未见出血和坏死,接种1×107的肿瘤组织体积较大。结论SGC-7901细胞接种裸鼠形成腹水后的细胞,更容易建立SGC-7901细胞皮下接种的胃癌动物模型,其中以接种细胞数为1×107的肿瘤生长较好,更适用于胃癌的实验研究。     

猪胃肠道黏膜二糖酶的性质

研究了猪小肠中麦芽糖酶,蔗糖酶和乳糖酶3种二糖酶的生化性质及活性分布。试验以3头“杜加”生长猪为对象,屠宰并刮取胃底部,十二指肠,空肠上段和回肠黏膜。其中空肠黏膜用于3种二糖酶生化性质的研究,包括酶的最适温度,热稳定性,最适pH ,pH稳定范围和金属离子对酶活性的影响;胃底部,十二指肠,空肠上段和回肠黏膜用于测定3种二糖酶活性以揭示其在胃扬中的分布规律。试验结果表明：麦芽糖酶,蔗糖酶和乳糖酶的最适反应温度分别为50,45和55℃,最适pH分别为6.8,6.5和6．0;乳糖酶的耐热温度（70℃）高于麦芽糖酶和蔗糖酶（50℃）;不同pH对3种二糖酶活性影响不大;金属离子Cu^2 和Fe^2 对3种二糖酶均有激活作用;而Mn^2 有抑制作用。此外,Zn^2 能抑制麦芽糖酶活性,提高蔗糖酶活性,而不影响乳糖酶活性。3种二糖酶活性在肠道中由高到低的分布为：空肠,回肠,十二指肠和胃;其中麦芽糖酶在空肠和回肠中活性相近。回肠和空肠黏膜中的麦芽糖酶活性均显著高于十二指肠和胃中的酶活性,十二指肠酶活性显著高于胃;空肠中蔗糖酶和乳糖酶活性显著高于回肠,十二指肠和胃底部。从3种二糖酶活性大小看,胃底部和十二指肠中的麦芽糖酶活性显著高于蔗糖酶和乳糖酶;空肠上段和回肠中的麦芽糖酶活性显著高于蔗糖酶活性,蔗糖酶活性又显著高于乳糖酶。上述结果表明,3种二糖酶的生化性质具有一定的差异,在胃肠道中的活性分布规律相似。     

Monitoring of genotoxic damage in smokeless tobacco ((Maraş powder) consumers using micronucleated exfoliated oral cells

Mara? powder is a kind of smokeless tobacco used in the south-eastern region of Turkey. The present study was carried out to assess possible DNA damage in exfoliated oral cells of Mara? powder users by analysing the frequencies of micronuclei (MN), which is a simple and reliable biomarker for genotoxic damage and to screen for the detection of site-specific differences in the frequencies of MN. The mean (±SD) MN frequency in the inner lip mucosa site was 1.27(±0.55) % for Mara? powder users and 0.88(±0.47) % for non-smoking control subjects (p < 0.05) and 0.82(±0.40) % for the buccal site of Mara? powder users (p < 0.01). There was no significant site-specific difference between the inner lip site and the buccal mucosa site 0.73(±0.43) % in the MN frequency of non-smoking control subjects (p > 0.05). There was no significant effect of daily consumption of Mara? powder, and duration of usage on MN frequencies. The present study suggests that the oral use of smokeless tobacco represents a genotoxic hazard and also that use of MN from a single site may be misleading as a marker of genotoxic exposure. Habitual use of Mara? powder should be taken into account and could be considered unsafe.

Variations in enzyme activity in stomach and pancreatic tissue and digesta in piglets around weaning

A study was performed to investigate the effect of weaning at 4 weeks of age on the activity of digestive enzymes in the stomach and pancreatic tissue and in digesta from 3 days prior to weaning to 9 days postweaning in 64 piglets. In stomach tissue the activity of pepsin and gastric lipase was determined. Pepsin activity declined abruptly after weaning but 5 days postweaning the weaning level was regained and in the gastric contents no change in pepsin activity was observed. Weaning did not influence the activity of gastric lipase. The activity of eight enzymes and a cofactor was measured in pancreatic tissue. The effect of weaning on the enzyme activity was highly significant for all enzymes except elastase. The activity of all enzymes remained at the weaning level during day 1–2 postweaning followed by a reduction of the activity. The activity of trypsin, carboxypeptidase A, amylase and lipase exhibited minimum activity 5 days postweaning. Trypsin activity increased to the preweaning level on day 7–9 whereas the activity of the others increased but did not reach the preweaning level. The activity of chymotrypsin, carboxypeptidase B and carboxyl ester hydrolase decreased during the entire experimental period. In digesta no effect of weaning was observed on the activity of amylase and trypsin. The activity of chymotrypsin was reduced after weaning in the proximal third of the small intestine and lipase and carboxyl ester hydrolase activity was reduced in the middle and distal parts of the small intestine after weaning. The present study shows that the activities of the digestive enzymes in the pancreatic tissue are affected by weaning. Even though the pancreatic secretion cannot be judged from these results they show that the enzymes respond differently to weaning. In general the activity of the digestive enzymes in pancreatic tissue is low on day 5 postweaning which in interaction with other factors may increase the risk of developing postweaning diarrhoea.     

Chronic metformin intake and gastric cancer: A pooled analysis within the Stomach cancer Pooling (StoP) Project

IntroductionThe association between chronic use of metformin and risk of gastric cancer (GC) has been investigated with contradicting results. We aimed to study the association between chronic use of metformin and GC by using data from the Stomach cancer Pooling (StoP) Project, an epidemiological consortium of case-control studies on GC.MethodsData from three studies of the StoP Project with available information on metformin intake were analyzed.Multivariable logistic regression models were used to estimate study-specific odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between chronic use of metformin and GC risk. Analyses were adjusted for sex, age, socioeconomic status, body mass index, smoking status, alcohol drinking status, and history of diabetes. Study-specific ORs and 95% CIs were then pooled with a random-effects model.The dose-response relationship between the duration of metformin intake and GC was assessed with a one-stage logistic model, and the duration of intake was modelled using second-order fractional polynomials.ResultsThe OR of GC in metformin users versus non-users was 1.01 (95% CI=0.61, 1.67). The association between metformin and GC did not change among different strata of study participants’ characteristics or when restricting the analyses to those with a history of diabetes.The dose-response analysis showed a slightly reducing trend in the OR of GC and a borderline significant association with increasing duration of metformin intake.ConclusionsThe results of our study do not clearly support an association between chronic use of metformin and GC, warranting further research.     

Bovine colostrum promoted ileal health in newborn lambs at 24 h after birth: insight from intestinal morphology and innate immunity

The contribution of colostrum to passive immunity transfer and intestinal protection in newborn ruminants is well known; however, it is currently unclear how colostrum intake affects intestinal innate immunity. We investigated the effects of bovine colostrum intake on ileal morphology, expression of genes involved in intestinal innate immunity, and serum concentrations of inflammatory cytokines in newborn lambs. Twenty-seven newborn male Hu lambs were used, of which 18 were bottle-fed either bovine colostrum (C24h; n = 9) or bovine mature milk (M24h; n = 9) within the first 2 h after birth at an intake of approximately 8% of BW; the remaining nine lambs did not receive any feeding (N24h). Blood and ileal tissue samples were collected after the lambs were slaughtered at 24 h after birth. Ileal villus height and villus height-to-crypt depth ratio were significantly higher in C24h than those in N24h and M24h lambs (P < 0.01). Messenger RNA (mRNA) abundance of toll-like receptor (TLR)-2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR6, TLR7, TLR8 and tumour necrosis factor alpha in the ileum was lower in C24h than that in N24h lambs (P < 0.05). Moreover, C24h lambs had a lower TLR3 mRNA abundance (P < 0.01) and a trend of lower TLR6 (P = 0.06) and interleukin 1 beta (P = 0.08) expression compared with those in M24h lambs. We also observed strong positive correlations of tumour necrosis factor alpha expression with that of TLR2 (r = 0.71; P < 0.001), TLR4 (r = 0.88; P < 0.001) and TLR8 (r = 0.83; P < 0.001). Interestingly, the expression of barrier-related molecules, including mucin-13, lysozyme, claudin (CLDN)-1, CLDN2, CLDN4, CLDN7, CLDN12, occludin, zonula occluden-1 and junctional adhesion molecule-1, was consistently lower in C24h lambs than that in N24h and M24h lambs (P < 0.05). These results indicated that the beneficial roles of colostrum intake on intestinal protection in newborn lambs were associated with low TLR expression, which was reflected by improved intestinal development and reduced inflammatory response. Further studies using fluorescence in situ hybridisation and immunohistochemical methods are needed to further explore the mechanisms underlying the lower expression of intestinal barrier-related molecules due to colostrum feeding.
