γ-干扰素受体在山羊颈前神经节的表达

旨在探索山羊颈前神经节是否具备接受γ-干扰素(interferon-γ,IFN-γ)作用的条件,是否有IFN-γ受体(interferon-γreceptor,IFNGR)的存在,进而明确神经调节与免疫调节之间的关系。分别取雌雄成年山羊颈前神经节各5对,用免疫组化SP法和PCR方法检测IFNGR在颈前神经节的表达情况。结果表明,在山羊颈前神经节的神经元、卫星细胞和神经纤维均有IFNGR免疫阳性产物分布,但主要分布于神经元胞体,IFNGR在神经元胞体的相对表达量显著高于非神经细胞结构(P0.05)。在山羊颈前神经节扩增到IFNGR1基因的cDNA片段全长376bp,与绵羊、牛、野猪、家兔、褐家鼠IFNGR1基因同源性分别为98%、97%、84%、73%、66%。在山羊颈前神经节中IFNGR主要在交感节后神经元表达与分布,具备对IFN-γ刺激做出反应的条件,提示山羊颈前神经节可能作为IFN-γ对靶器官免疫内分泌调节途径和自主神经对靶器官调节的神经途径之间相互协调的关键点。     

人乳头瘤病毒16L1蛋白的原核表达及免疫原性研究

采用聚合酶链反应技术从宫颈癌组织中获得人乳头瘤病毒(HPV)16L1基因,克隆到pGEM—TEasy载体中,再连接到原核表达载体pGEX-6p-1谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶基因的下游,重组质粒转化大肠杆菌BL21,经IPTG诱导、SDS—PAGE分析,用表达产物免疫小鼠,获得的血清进行间接免疫荧光检测。结果表明：获得的pGEX-6p-1-L1基因在大肠杆菌中能以谷胱甘肽-S-转移酶融合蛋白的形式得到高效表达,表达产物免疫小鼠,间接免疫荧光显示免疫血清能与peDNA—L1转染的B16细胞呈现特异反应,说明体外表达的HPV16L1蛋白保留了天然蛋白的抗原性,可作为HPV的诊断抗原、免疫学分析和疫苗研制的原料。

粘附分子CD44v6在宫颈癌组织中的表达及意义

目的:了解粘附分子CD44v6在宫颈癌组织中的表达及其意义。方法:采用免疫组织化学法(SP法)检测CD44v6在69例宫颈癌组织及20例正常宫颈组织中的表达。结果:正常宫颈组织中的CD44v6呈阴性表达。69例宫颈癌组织中CD44v6的阳性表达率为68.1％(47/69)。CD44v6的阳性表达在不同的病灶大小、临床分期、细胞分化程度及有无淋巴结转移的宫颈癌组织中差异有统计学意义(P<0.05～0.01);在不同的病理类型及年龄的患者中差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论;CD44V6可能在宫颈癌的生长、浸润及转移过程中起重要作用,可望作为反映宫颈癌恶性潜能的新指标。

Computed tomographic anatomy of the canine cervical vertebral venous system

Computed tomographic (CT) venography of the cervical vertebral canal was performed in six, clinically normal, adult mixed-breed dogs from 14 to 23 kg. After dogs were euthanized and saline perfused, a gelatin and iothalamate mixture was injected into the right external jugular vein. Contiguous, 4-mm-thick CT images were obtained with dogs in sternal recumbency. Dogs were kept in the same position as for the CT scan and frozen to approximately -8 degrees C. All post-contrast CT images were analyzed using similar bone window and level settings. Additional multiplanar reformatted dorsal images were obtained in all dogs. The frozen cadavers were sectioned through the cervical region extending from the occiput to T1 at approximately 8-mm intervals. The frozen sections were then compared with the CT images. The CT appearance of the normal cervical vertebral venous system was described and illustrated. Components such as the internal vertebral venous plexus, interarcuate veins, intervertebral veins, and vertebral veins were clearly identified on the CT images.     

Morphologic evaluation of acute endometritis in mares with differing resistance to uterine infections

The study was designed to determine differences between normal mares and mares with endometrial pathology in the inflammatory response after bacterial challenge. Six normal mares (biopsy category I) and 4 mares with pathological endometrial changes (biopsy category II) were given an intrauterine infusion of β-hemolytic streptococci on the second day of estrus. All mares had a similar kind of inflammatory response after the bacterial inoculation as assessed by rectal and vaginal examinations. There were no significant differences in the amount of discharge, uterine tone, uterine size and cervical relaxation between the groups. Leukocytic response, as determined by endometrial smears and biopsies, was of the same magnitude in both groups. Two mares from the pathological group were not able to eliminate the infection, but had vaginal discharge and bacteriologically positive uterine swabs until the end of the experiment. It is concluded that the inability of some mares to clear uterine infections cannot be explained by a deficient inflammatory response.
