镉对鲫非特异性免疫力的影响

采用毒性实验方法研究了镉对鲫非特异性免疫力的影响,确定镉诱导免疫毒性效应及其毒性参数。在试验剂量和时间范围内的结果显示,镉对鲫白细胞数量(WBC)、中性粒细胞的吞噬率(PR)和补体50%溶血活性(CH50)均有剂量-效应关系、时间-效应关系和Hormesis现象,1.25mg·kg-1注射染Cd2+胁迫时对WBC、PR和CH50有激活作用,2.5和3.75mg·kg-1注射染Cd2+胁迫时对WBC、PR和CH50有抑制作用;WBC顶点所对应的时间为染Cd2+后4d,PR顶点所对应的时间为染Cd2+后2d,CH50顶点所对应的时间为染Cd2+后1d。所以Cd2+对鲫具有明显的免疫毒性。     

Wilson's disease: identification of an abnormal copper-binding protein

The metal-binding protein metallothionein was isolated from the livers of Wilson's disease patients and control subjects. The metals were removed from the native protein to produce the apoprotein, and copperthionein was prepared by equilibrium dialysis. Copperthionein from Wilson's disease patients had a copper-binding constant four times as great as that of the protein from control subjects. These results suggest that the alterations in copper homeostasis in Wilson's disease result from the synthesis of an abnormal metal-binding protein with an increased affinity for copper.     

小鼠血清抗磺胺二甲氧嘧啶抗体的研制

将磺胺二甲氧嘧啶(SDM)与载体牛甲状腺球蛋白(BTG)偶联,构建SDM完全抗原SDM-BTG。用SDM-BTG免疫小鼠,诱导小鼠产生血清抗SDM抗体。ELISA检测表明:SDM-BTG免疫小鼠所产生的多克隆抗体与SDM-BSA包被抗原的结合有较强的特异性和较高的亲和力。
