NO在雏鸡球虫感染过程中的作用

研究以腹腔注射途径给予试验雏鸡cNOS抑制剂L－NAME、L－NA以及iNOS抑制剂L－AG，通过测定血浆NO2^-水平、肠道粘膜NOS活性、雏鸡日增重以及肠道病变计分、肠道组织切片中球虫数量、O.P.G值、异常粪便百分率等指标，研究了NO在雏鸡感染E.tenella或E.acervulina过程中的作用。试验结果表明，在雏鸡感染E.tenella或E.acervulina后，每日连续给予L－AG或L－NAME，不但加重了雏鸡的肠道组织显微病变，而且使肠道组织切片中的球虫数量增多。此外L－AG或L－NAME处理还使感染雏鸡的O.P.G值和肠道病变记分等指标出现不同程度的升高，但与感染对照组的相比未见显著性影响。另外，无论是NO2^-测定结果，还是NOS活性测定结果均表明，3种NOS抑制剂对感染E.acervulina雏鸡体内NO的生成均有较好的抑制作用，其中以L－AG的抑制作用最为理想，L－AG处理组雏鸡血浆NO2^-水平或肠道粘膜NOS活性值均与给予的L－AG剂量之间呈现较好的剂量依赖性递减关系。结果提示，在雏鸡感染球虫过程中，体内大量生成的NO对球虫具有一定的毒性作用。NO可能是在雏鸡E.tenella和E.acervulina感染过程中发挥作用的一种效应分子。     

Changes in serum TGF β1 in type 2 diabetic patients

AIM: To explore the changes in serum TGF β₁ in type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Forty-five cases type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were divided into three groups according to urine albumim excretion rate(UAER): normoalbuminuria(NA)group and microalbuminuria(MA) group and macroalbuminuria group (Overt DN). Serum TGF β₁, fasting blood glucose(FBG), HbA_1c,BUN,Cr,Ccr,lipidemia were detected in all cases. RESULTS: Serum TGF β₁ in NA, MA and ODN groups was higher than that in control. Serum TGF β₁ was positive correlation with Cr(r=0.390,P＜0.05), LDL(r=0.503,P＜0.01), HbA_1c (r=0.676,P＜0.01), and UARE(r=0.777,P＜0.01). CONCLUSION: Type 2 diabetes mellitus have a higher serum TGF β₁ than controls, serum TGF β₁ was positive correlation with HbA_1c and injury of renal function.     

华东地区油菜和十字花科蔬菜花叶病的初步研究

 南京及华东地区的油菜与十字花科蔬菜普遍发生花叶病。病原病毒經抗性(失毒温度、稀释終点、体外保毒期)測定和寄主反应測定,认为可以分作三大类型:分别为芸苔病毒2号,黄瓜病毒1号与烟病毒1号的株系。前两种病毒都能为害油菜、大白菜、白菜、芥菜、蘿卜等,但不为害甘蓝型的蔬菜,并都能引起菠菜和茼蒿的花叶,和在烟上引起局部枯斑。第一型在烟农特400号和心叶烟上不引起花叶,而第二型在烟和心叶烟上都能引起系統性花叶。第一型不为害心叶烟,而第三型可在心叶烟上引起小枯斑。第一型与凌立、楊演的油菜花叶病毒相近似,而和范怀忠、柯冲从十字花科蔬菜中所分离出的分离物1号最为相象。与裘維蕃、王祁楷在白菜上所发現的孤丁病毒的差别,在于不能侵害甘蓝类的蔬菜。第二型病毒与范怀忠、柯冲的分离物3号相近似,但与典型的黃瓜花叶病毒仍具有一定的差异。这些病毒在油菜上所引起的症状却沒有明显的差別。

片形吸虫分泌排泄抗原和虫体抗原的分析

用牛源肝片吸虫（南京）、牛源大片吸虫（广西）和羊源肝片吸虫（实验感染）制备可溶性虫体抗原（BA）和和分泌排泄抗原（ES），以SDS－PAGE电泳分析比较，结果显示，3株虫体可溶性虫体抗原至少有20条以上的主要蛋白条带，分子量集中于10－90KD之间，它们之间无显著差异，而3株分泌排泄抗原蛋白成分较简单，明显可分的条带不超过5条，分子量集中于10－30KD之间，且均拥有26－28KD的蛋白成分，提示该蛋白应为片形吸虫ES抗原的主要免疫成分。     

Relationship between levels of IL-2, TNF-α and nitric oxide in aqueous humor after intraocular lens implantation

AIM: To investigate the relationship between the level of interleukin-2 (IL-2), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and nitric oxide (NO) in aqueous humor after intraocular lens implantation. METHODS: New Zealand rabbits were divided randomly into three groups: (1) control group; (2) extracapsular cataract extraction group (ECCE); (3) extracapsular cataract extraction and posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation group (ECCE+IOL). The inflammation in all experimental rabbit eyes was observed via zoom-photo slit-lamp microscope on 1, 3, 7, 14 d and 30 d postoperation. Meanwhile, aqueous humor was drawn for white blood cell (WBC) counting and classifying and for determining IL-2, TNF-α and NO₂^-/NO₃^- contents. RESULTS: (1) The level of IL-2 and TNF-α and NO₂^-/ NO₃^- in aqueous humor of ECCE+IOL group were higher than that in ECCE and control at 1 to 14 days postoperation, respectively, it increased to peak value at 3 to 7 days postoperation and decreased gradually two weeks postoperation; (2) The changes in IL-2, TNF-α and NO₂^-/NO₃^- in each group were basically similer; (3) The changes of IL-2 and TNF-α level were closely related with NO content in aqueous humor (r=0.69, P<0.01 and r=0.98, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: IL-2, TNF-α and NO play an important role in intraocular inflammation intraocular lens implantation.     

Isolation and Identification of Group I Type 4 Avian Adenovirus and Analysis in Immune Effect of Fiber-2 Protein

The aim of this study was to identify pathogens, which caused pericardial effusion, hepatomegaly and bleeding at a chicken farm in Henan province, and furthermore to analyze effectiveness of immunogenic proteins of the pathogen. This study employed virus isolation, serological assays, PCR and sequencing analysis, animal experimentation, E. coli expression and protein purification, immunogenicity and challenge test and other methods. The results showed that virus was isolated in 7-day-old SPF chicken embryonated eggs, inoculated via the yolk sac route by two blind passages. Viral confirmation was carried out using PCR techniques, and showed a 900-bp-long fragment which shared a 100% homology with the Hexon gene of the serotype C4 strain. Serum neutralization results indicated that this isolate avian adenovirus was the group I type 4 avian adenovirus, named HN-ZK strain. The virus could induce CPE on primary hepatocytes of chicken embryo, and its titer was 10^7.5 TCID₅₀·0.1 mL^-1. Animal experimentation illustrated that the isolated virus caused 100% (10/10) typical symptoms and pathogenicity in 35-day-old SPF chickens. Furthermore, the DNA of the isolate virus was used as a template to express Fiber-2 fragment, with a molecular weight of 33 kDa by using the E. coli expression system, and the protein was concentrated and purified to 300 mg·mL^-1 after centrifugation and purification. SPF chickens were immunized with different doses of the purified Fiber-2 protein, and showed that a dose of 20 μg per chick was completely resistant to challenge of the virulent virus, suggesting the purified Fiber-2 protein has better immunogenicity. This study can provide data for diagnosing the hydropericardium hepatitis syndrome, and developing a genetic engineering subunit vaccine.     

猪瘟病毒持续感染对母猪繁殖性能及仔猪猪瘟疫苗免疫效力的影响

利用来源于同一猪场的2头猪瘟病毒(HCV)持续感染的带毒母猪及所产35头仔猪(包括13头死胎)和6头阴性对照猪,观察母猪的胎儿发育成活状况、仔猪HCV带毒率及HCV垂直传播对仔猪猪瘟兔化弱毒疫苗(HCLV)免疫效力的干扰作用,同时进行水平传播试验和观察HCV持续感染对母猪繁殖功能的影响。结果表明：HCV持续感染对其中1头母猪的胎儿发育和成活有明显影响,而对另1头母猪的胎儿发育没有明显影响;HCV持续感染母猪可经过胎盘垂直传播病毒给仔猪,传播率达45％～86％;吃初乳和接种HCLV不能阻止带毒仔猪的死亡,9头带毒仔猪在45d内死亡4头;免疫HCLV不能使带毒仔猪产生免疫保护力。5头猪在强毒攻击后死亡4头;HCV垂直传播的带毒猪可发生水平传播,并引起3／4感染猪死亡;HCV持续感染可引起母猪生殖系统病理变化。导致繁殖障碍。
