Inflammation of the cardiac coronary artery in ICR mice

Inflammation of the cardiac coronary artery in ICR mice is occasionally observed in toxicity studies; however, this has not been well explored histologically. Herein, we investigated the detailed histology of the associated lesions in 6–8-week-old ICR mice. Coronary artery inflammation in the right ventricular wall was observed in 10 of 142 mice (7.0%). Histopathological examination revealed hypertrophy of the vascular smooth muscle cells and perivascular infiltration of macrophages in mild cases. In moderate to marked cases, single-cell necrosis of vascular smooth muscle cells, hemorrhage of the tunica media, and fibrinoid necrosis of the vessel wall were observed, in addition to the changes seen in mild cases. Electron microscopic examination of moderate cases revealed a discontinuous internal elastic lamina suggestive of rupture, and vascular smooth muscle cells beneath the elastic lamina showed degeneration and necrosis. These findings suggest that the lesions developed as a rupture of the internal elastic lamina and necrosis of vascular smooth muscle cells, while leaked plasma components caused vascular and perivascular inflammation. In ICR mice, dystrophic calcinosis (DCC) is known to occur rarely in the right ventricle. DCC is defined as focal calcification in necrotic myocardial fibers, the pathogenesis of which is considered to involve ectopic calcification. Since calcification was not observed in any part of the heart, including the inflammation region, the pathophysiology of cardiac arterial inflammation seen in our ICR mice was considered to differ from that of DCC.     

Antiproliferation effects of 188Re labeled monoclonal antibody on prostate cancer cells in vitro

AIM: To investigate the effect of 188Re labeled monoclonal antibody on prostatic specific membrane antigen 7E11C5.3,radioimmunotherapy for the treatment of human prostate cancer cell line LNCaP in vitro.METHODS: 188Re-7E11C5.3 was prepared by direct 2-mercaptoethanol reduction method.Labeling efficiency and radiochemical purity was measured by paper chromatography.Immunoreactive fraction was determined by linear extrapolation.Cytotoxicity to LNCaP cells was determined by MTT assay.RESULTS: The labeling yield of 188Re-7E11C5.3 was (93.16±2.18)%,the radiochemical purity was (95.62±0.48)%,and the immunoreactive fraction was (74.86±1.86)%.The inhibitory effect of 188Re-7E11C5.3 on cell proliferation of LNCaP cells was significantly higher than that of 188Re-mIgG or 188ReO-4.The 50% inhibitory doses (IC50) of 188Re-7E11C5.3,188Re-mIgG,and 188ReO-4 were (23.38±3.73)×107 Bq/L,(59.21±8.02)×107 Bq/L and (68.89±10.91)×107 Bq/L,respectively.CONCLUSION: 188Re-7E11C5.3 can effectively inhibit the growth of in vitro cultured prostate cancer cells and shows much potential for prostate cancer radioimmunotherapy.     

Thrombolytic properties of a conjugate of liposomal urokinase with a monoclonal antibody specific for cross-linked fibrin in the model of rabbit artery thrombosis

AIM: To observe the targeting thrombolytic effect of a monoclonal antibody specific for cross-linked fibrin connected with liposomal urokinase（UK） in the model of rabbit artery thrombosis.METHODS: Preparation of thrombolytic solutions: with the method of controllable dialysis eradicator in liposomat,empty liposomes,liposomally entrapped urokinase and liposomally entrapped urokinase linked with D-dimer antibody were made.Experiment in vivo: a rabbit thrombosis model of abdominal aorta was induced by ferric chloride.When the blood pressure fall to the lowest,5 different solutions were separately imported (PBS,maximal-level UK,Ab/Lip/UK,Ab/UK-Lip,Ab-UK-Lip) and observed for 40 min continuously.RESULTS: The varieties of 5 groups blood pressures were analyzed with q-test.Significant differences were observed among Ab-UK-Lip group,maximal-level UK group and others (P<0.01).There were marked differences between Ab-UK-Lip group and others in wet weight of thrombuses (P<0.05).However,the quantity of UK in Ab-UK-Lip group was 1/3 of that in maximal-level of UK group.CONCLUSION: The thrombolytic effect on Ab-UK-Lip group is similar to that on maximal-level of UK group,but the dosage of UK is less,and the side-effect is light.This shows,as a homing-device of liposomal urokinase,the D-dimer antibody has targeting effect and the agent of Ab-UK-Lip will be attached importance by-and-by.     

BPA不影响卵母细胞减数分裂相关基因Dazl的甲基化

为了探讨环境雌激素BPA对小鼠卵母细胞减数分裂相关基因Dazl甲基化的影响,本研究通过给孕鼠饮用含有BPA的水方式使胎鼠在发育过程中接触BPA,利用重亚硫酸盐测序法,分析了胎鼠生殖嵴卵母细胞不同发育时期Dazl甲基化水平的变化。结果显示:Dazl在减数分裂期间处于低甲基化水平,无论对照组或处理组均低于10%,说明Dazl的低甲基化对维持减数分裂的正常进行有重要作用;对照组与处理组的甲基化水平相当,差异不显著,说明本研究的BPA浓度不影响卵母细胞Dazl的甲基化水平。

Development and Validation of a Recombinant Envelop Glycoprotein Based Indirect Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay to Detect the Antibody to REV

Based on the antigenic analysis of Reticuloendotheliosis virus （REV） envelop glycoprotein （env） protein, an alternative indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） for detection of REV antibody was developed using a truncated env protein of REV produced in Escherichia coli. This assay was validated by comparison with an indirect immunofluorescence assay （IFA） and a REV-based ELISA. The diagnostic sensitivity （DSN）, specificity （DSP） and accuracy of the env indirect-ELISA （ienv-ELISA） were 93.7, 93.3 and 93.6% compared with IFA on 1 380 field serum samples, and 84.8, 95.2 and 91.7% compared with the REV-based ELISA on 96 field sera, respectively. Cross-reactivity assay showed that this assay was REV-specific. Repeatability test revealed that the coefficients of variation of positive sera within and between runs were less than 15%. This method is simpler to produce and perform, time-saving and suitable for large scale survey of REV antibody at low cost.
