酸敏感离子通道与脑梗死

急性脑梗死约占全部脑卒中的70%,病死率和致残率高,且极易复发。但目前针对急性脑梗死在时间窗内溶栓、抗凝等治疗手段不能从根本上切实有效地修复受损脑组织,且伴有出血等风险。寻找脑梗死形成发展的原因并予以治疗迫在眉睫。酸中毒是引起缺血性脑损伤的重要机制。大量实验研究表明,酸中毒能加重神经元的缺血性损伤,且其梗死面积与酸中毒的程度直接相关。但缺血产生的酸中毒如何引起神经元损伤的确切机制尚不明确。最近研究发现酸中毒能激活一种在中枢及周围神经中广泛存在的膜通道,即酸敏感离子通道,它对Ca2+通透,能引起细胞内Ca2+超载,同时能激活胞内酶引起细胞内蛋白质、脂类及核酸的降解,加重缺血后脑损伤。本文就酸敏感离子通道1a与脑梗死做一综述。     

Carboxypeptidase A in mouse mast cells. Identification, characterization, and use as a differentiation marker

By using a conventional spectrophotometric assay with hippuryl-L-phenylalanine as the substrate, 10(6) BALB/c mouse serosal mast cells possessed 1.5 +/- 0.43 U (mean +/- SE, n = 5, range = 0.48 to 2.5) of carboxypeptidase A activity, while T cell factor-dependent, mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC) had barely detectable levels of 0.01 +/- 0.001 U/10(6) cells (mean +/- SE, n = 3). In order to characterize the carboxypeptidase A present in the BMMC, a sensitive assay was developed that used angiotensin I as the substrate and reverse phase-high performance liquid chromatography to separate and quantify production of the cleavage product des-leu-angiotensin I. Using this assay, mouse BMMC carboxypeptidase A had a neutral to basic pH optimum and hydrolyzed angiotensin I with a Km of 0.78 mM. The antigen-induced net percent release of carboxypeptidase A from IgE-sensitized BMMC was proportional to that of the secretory granule component beta-hexosaminidase which indicates a secretory granule location for the exopeptidase. As defined by exclusion during Sepharose CL-2B chromatography, carboxypeptidase A was exocytosed as a greater than 1 X 10(7) m.w. complex bound to proteoglycans. Because BMMC cocultured with mouse skin-derived 3T3 fibroblasts are known to undergo an increase in histamine content and biosynthesis of 35S-labeled heparin proteoglycans, carboxypeptidase A activity was measured during BMMC/fibroblast coculture for 0 to 28 days. The carboxypeptidase A activity increased progressively during 28 days of co-culture from 0.004 +/- 0.002 U/10(6) starting BMMC (mean +/- SE, n = 3) to 0.36 +/- 0.10 U/10(6) co-cultured mast cells. These findings indicate that carboxypeptidase A, a neutral protease, is exocytosed from the secretory granules of mouse mast cells bound to proteoglycan and is increased during the in vitro differentiation of mouse BMMC from mucosal-like mast cells to serosal-like mast cells.

Structural relatedness of lysis proteins from colicinogenic plasmids and icosahedral coliphages

The host-lysis-inducing functions of phi X174 protein E and MS2 protein L were recently shown to reside on the N-terminal and C-terminal halves of the two respective lysis proteins. In the present study it is shown that the small lysis proteins encoded in various colicinogenic plasmids share local sequence similarities and certain structural characteristics with the essential peptides of their coliphage-coded counterparts. Despite their dissimilar sizes and origins, it is suggested that the colicinogenic lysis proteins are functionally analogous and evolutionarily related to those of icosahedral single- stranded DNA and RNA phages.      

氟碳乳剂与右旋糖酐对犬缺血心肌侧支循环供氧的影响

本实验在14只麻醉开胸狗心脏上观察了氟碳乳剂与右旋糖酐稀释血液对心肌耗氧量与供应缺血心肌氧量关系的影响。以左室压力-时间指数(SPTI)作为心肌耗氧量的指标,根据冠脉有效侧支血流量(ECF)、PaO_2和 Hb 浓度计算供应缺血心肌的氧量。实验结果表明,低分子右旋糖酐稀释血液后,SPTI 暂时性轻度增加(稀释后30min 时较对照增加7.1±2.7%,P<0.05,稀释后60min 时增加2.8±1.2%,P>0.05),ECF 明显增多(稀释后30min 时较对照增加58.5±6.1%,P<0.01),缺血区边缘心肌氧供需关系未发生明显变化。氟碳乳剂稀释血液后,SPTI 的变化规律与右旋糖酐稀释后相同(稀释后30min 和60min 时分别较对照增加2.5±0.7%和1.9±0.8%)ECF 和 PaO_2升高(稀释后30min 时分别较对照增加53.9±6.7%和93±8.9%),供应缺血心肌的氧量显著增加,缺血区边缘心肌氧供需矛盾明显改善。
