Recombinant AAV-mediated HSVtk gene transfer with direct intratumoral injections and Tet-On regulation for implanted human breast cancer

Background  

HSVtk/ganciclovir (GCV) gene therapy has been extensively studied in tumors and relies largely on the gene expression of HSVtk. Most studies, however, have failed to demonstrate any significant benefit of a controlled gene expression strategy in cancer treatment. The Tet-On system is commonly used to regulate gene expression following Dox induction. We have evaluated the antitumor effect of HSVtk/ganciclovir gene therapy under Tet-On regulation by means of adeno-associated virus-2 (AAV-2)-mediated HSVtk gene transfer with direct intratumoral injections in mice bearing breast cancer tumors.     

不同液体术前急性高容量血液稀释对深静脉血栓病人血液流变学的影响

Objective To investigate the effects of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) with different fluids on blood rheology in patients with deep vein (femoral and iliac) thrombosis. Methods Thirty ASA I or II patients aged 40-64 yr who had developed deep vein thrombosis in 48 h and were scheduled for embolectomy were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 10 each) ; group I normal saline (NS) ; group II 6 % HES 200/0.5 ( HES) ; group IE gelofusine (GEL). AHH was performed with normal saline, 6% HES or gelofusine infusion at 20 ml·kg-1 ·h-1 for 40 min. MAP, HR and SpO2 were monitored. Blood loss, volume of blood transfusion and fluid infused and urine output during operation were recorded. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl 3-5 fig/kg, etomidate 0.15-0.30 mg/kg, propofol 1-2 mg/kg and succinylcholine 1-2 mg/kg and maintained with 2% isoflurane and propofol infusion at 5-8 mg·kg-1·h-1 and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium. The patients were mechanically ventilated (VT 8 ml/kg, RR 12 bpm). PaO2 and PaCO2 were maintained within normal range. Venous blood samples were obtained before and after AHH for measurement of hematocrit (Hct), whole blood viscocity (WBV) at low or high shear rates, plasma viscosity, RBC aggregation and RBC deformation. RBC aggregation index and RBC deformation index were calculated. Results MAP and HR were stable in all patients. The amount of blood transfusion and fluid infused was significantly less in group HES and GEL than in group NS. The WBV at low or high shear rates in group HES and GEL, Hct in all 3 groups and RBC aggregation index in group HES were significantly decreased after AHH, but the RBC deformation index was significantly increased in group HES. Conclusion Colloid is better than crystalloid and HES is better than gelofusine in improving intraoperative hypercoagulability and sluggish blood flow.     

年龄与代谢综合征的关系及防治对策

目的了解中老年人群年龄与多种代谢异常的聚集状况,为心脑血管疾病的一级预防提供依据。方法对744例中老年人按不同年龄分为5组,分析代谢综合征(MS)各项指标的变化规律及特点。结果年龄与肥胖呈明显负相关(P<0.001),与高血糖、高血压及冠心病、脑卒中呈明显正相关(P<0.05或0.001);40～60岁组MS的患病率基本一致,约为30%,70岁以后明显增加,到80岁时可高达51%(P<0.05或0.01);MS与冠心病和脑卒中的患病率均明显相关(P<0.05),随着临床指标个数的增加,冠心病的患病率增加了6.8%,脑卒中的患病率增加了7.44%。结论中年人群超重或肥胖的患病率明显高于老年组,应引起足够重视;随着年龄增长,代谢异常指标数目增多,尤其是≥3项指标的人数明显增加;MS作为心血管危险因素直接导致冠心病、脑卒中发病率增加。针对中老年人群MS的特点,制定相应的干预措施十分重要。     

表皮生长因子对大鼠脑梗死后神经功能恢复的影响

目的 观察表皮生长因子（EGF）对大鼠脑梗死后神经功能恢复的影响。方法 采用肾血管性高血压大鼠制作一侧大脑中动脉皮层支闭塞（MCAO）模型。MCAO术后24 h，32只大鼠侧脑室注入10μl EGF（100μg/L），连续2d，共2μg（EGF组）；32只大鼠只注入不含EGF的等量溶液（对照组）。MCAO术后1、2、3和4w，行Bederson神经功能评分后，免疫印迹检测双侧大脑半球生长相关蛋白（GAP43）、突触囊泡蛋白（SYN）和胶质原纤维酸性蛋白（GFAP）的表达。结果 与同期对照组相比，EGF组大鼠在MCAO术后1、2w神经运动功能恢复更好，脑梗死灶同侧半球GAP43、SYN和GFAP有更早期和更高表达（P<0.05）。结论 GAP43、SYN和GFAP等蛋白的早期高峰表达可能与EGF引起的早期神经可塑性改善有关。

鞘内注射吗啡加可乐定对切口痛大鼠脊髓背角蛋白激酶A催化亚单位表达的影响

Objective To observe the effect of intrathecal clonidine plus morphine on expression of protein kinase A (PKA) catalytic subunit in the spinal dorsal horn in a rat model of incisional pain. Methods Eighty male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into five groups: sham group, control group, pre-incisional morphine 2.5 μg group, pro-incisional clonidine 5 μg group and preincisional morphine 2.5 μg plus clonidine 5 lag group (n=16). lntrathecal catheter and the model of incisional pain were pro-duced according to Yaksh and Brennan's described method respectively. Changes of pain behavior were assessed by mechanical with-drawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency(TWL). The expressions of PKA catalytic subunit in the spinal dorsal horn were assessed by immunohistochemical method and western blotting analysis. Results Compared with sham group, MWT and TWL in control group were decreased significantly at 2 h after incision (P<0.01) and the number of positive cells and protein expression of PKA catalytic subunit in the spinal dorsal horn were increased significantly in control group (P<0.01). Compared with control group, MWT and TWL in pre-incision morphine 2 μg plus clonidine 5 lag group were increased significantly at 2 h after incision (P<0.01) and the number of positive cells and protein expression of PKA catalytic subunit in the spinal dorsal horn were decreased significantly in pre-incision morphine 2 μg plus clonidine 5 μg group (P<0.01). However, MWT, TWL and the number of positive cells and pro-tein expression of PKA catalytic subunit in the spinal dorsal horn changed with no statistical significance in pre-incisional morphine 2.5 μg group and pre-incisional clonidine 5 μg group compared with control group. Conclusion lntrathecal clonidine significantly enhances the antinociceptive effect of intrathecal morphine in a rat model of incisional pain, which might be associated with inhibi-tion of the increased expression of PKA catalytic subunit in spinal cord.
