Male BXSB mice, a mouse model of systemic lupus erythematosus, were given bone marrow transplants (BMT) at 20 wk of age using MHC-matched donor cells and nonmyeloablative conditioning (550 cGy irradiation). Transplanted mice and irradiation controls were followed for a period of 20 wk. Mice transgenic for green fluorescent protein were used as donors to allow tracking of donor cells and a determination of chimerism. Radiation controls had reduced renal pathology at 10 wk posttransplant, but not at 20 wk compared with untreated mice, while nonmyeloablative BMT mice had significantly reduced pathology at both time intervals. The monocytosis characteristic of older BXSB mice was also reduced by BMT, but the treatment did not prevent production of Ab to dsDNA. A stable chimerism of 24-40% donor CD45-positive cells was achieved in spleen and bone marrow, and there was no evidence of clinical graft vs host disease. Donor cells were detected in most recipient organs, notably the thymus and renal glomeruli. The results suggest that complete depletion of mature lymphocytes or of progenitor stem cells is not required to control lupus nephritis in BXSB mice. 相似文献

In survival analysis when the mortality reaches a peak after some finite period and then slowly declines, it is appropriate to use a model which has a nonmonotonic failure rate. In this paper we study the log-logistic model whose failure rate exhibits the above behavior and its mean residual life behaves in the reverse fashion. The maximum likelihood estimation of the parameters is examined and it is proved analytically that unique maximum likelihood estimates exist for the parameters. A lung cancer data set is analyzed. Confidence intervals for the parameters as well as for the critical points of the failure rate and mean residual life functions are obtained for the high performance status (PS) and low PS subgroups, where the term performance status is a measure of general medical status. 相似文献

Gerodontology 2010; doi: 10.1111/j.1741‐2358.2009.00353.x Reliability and comparison of two facial measurements to detect changes of occlusal vertical dimension in complete denture wearers Background: Facial measurements are frequently used to determine OVD. However, the reliability of neither the method nor the chosen landmarks has been cleared yet. Objective: This study compares the reliability of two facial measurements, subnasal (SN) to chin (C) and tip of the nose (TN) to C, for determining occlusal vertical dimension (OVD). Materials and methods: Thirty edentulous subjects with adequate neuromuscular co‐ordination, without signs and symptoms of temporomandibular disorders and who had been wearing complete dentures for at least 5 years were enrolled. A modified central bearing device was used to alter the OVD and facial measurements were made with a digital caliper. Student’s t‐test was used to compare the two measurements. Interobserver and intraobserver reliability were evaluated with Spearman’s rho correlation test. Results: TN–C distance had an improved correlation with the changes in intraoral alterations than SN–C distance. While the means of the changes in facial measurements were in good agreement with the intraoral alterations, the ranges were wide. Both interobserver and intraobserver reliability of the measurements were high. Conclusion: While facial measurement is not a good predictor of OVD, TN–C distance appears to be more reliable than SN–C distance. 相似文献

Although its etiology remains unknown, the increased production of reactive oxygen species in Beh?et's disease (BD) have been reported. Furthermore, it has been suggested that vascular and endothelial tissue damage seen in BD is related to elevated reactive oxygen species generated by activated neutrophils from BD patients. To investigate the formation of lipid peroxidation in BD patients in vivo, urinary level of 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) was quantitated by enzyme immunoassay after solid phase extraction in different clinical forms of BD patients. There was no difference in urinary level of 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) between BD patient and healthy control group. There was also no difference in urinary levels of 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) in subgroup analyses of BD patients, i.e. in mucocutaneous and vascular type BD patients; active and inactive BD patients. Contrary to the findings in literature, we found no difference in urinary level of 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) between patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and healthy control group. These findings show no increase in lipid peroxidation despite the augmented formation of reactive oxygen species in BD patients. It may be interesting to assess formation of urinary level of 8-isoprostaglandin F(2alpha) in BD patients who do not take any medication. 相似文献

The effects of low molecular weight plasma inhibitors from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (RT) were investigated on the carbonic anhydrase enzyme (CA) activities in in vitro human and in in vivo Sprague-Dawley rat erythrocytes. The RT blood was used as extracellular fluid (plasma) source and plasma inhibitors were obtained by dialysis of the plasma. For the in vitro study, human carbonic anhydrase-II (HCA-II) isozyme was obtained by Sepharose 4B-L-tyrosine-sulfanylamide affinity chromatography with an overall purification of about 646-fold. The enzyme (specific activity of 7750 EU/mg protein) was obtained with a yield of 71.1% and SDS-PAGE showed a single band. From in vitro studies, the I50 value for RT plasma inhibitors obtained was 0.37 mg/ml. From in vivo studies on rat erythrocytes, CA activity was significantly inhibited by the inhibitors from the extracellular fluid of RT for up to 3 h (p < 0.05) following intraperitoneal administration. 相似文献

The in vitro and in vivo inhibitory effects of 5-(3α, 12α-dihydroxy-5-β-cholanamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide (1), 5-(3α, 7α, 12α-trihydroxy-5-β-cholanamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide (2), 5-(3α, 7α, 12α-triacetoxy-5-β-cholanamido)-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-sulfonamide (3) and acetazolamide on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (RT) erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase (CA) were investigated. The RT erythrocyte CA was obtained by affinity chromatography with a yield of 20.9%, a specific activity of 422.5?EU/mg protein and a purification of 222.4-fold. The purity of the enzyme was confirmed by SDS-PAGE. Inhibitory effects of the sulfonamides and acetazolamide on the RT erythrocyte CA were determined using the CO2-Hydratase method in vitro and in vivo studies. From in vitro studies, it was found that all the compounds inhibited CA. The obtained I50 value for the sulfonamides (1), (2) and (3) and acetazolamide were 0.83, 0.049, 0.82 and 0.052?μM, respectively. From in vivo studies, it was observed that CA was inhibited by the sulfonamides (1), (2) and (3) and acetazolamide. 相似文献
