乙酰胆碱对人胃粘膜上皮细胞和胃腺癌细胞内Ca2+、Mg2+浓度的影响

目的:探讨乙酰胆碱对人胃粘膜上皮细胞和胃腺癌细胞内Ca2 、Mg2 浓度的影响。方法:利用大型生化分析仪,检测了乙酰胆碱作用后培养的人胃粘膜上皮细胞和胃腺癌细胞内Ca2 、Mg2 的浓度。结果:与正常胃粘膜上皮细胞比较,胃腺癌细胞内Ca2 、Mg2 浓度偏低(P>0 01)。在乙酰胆碱作用下,胃粘膜上皮细胞内Ca2 浓度升高(P<0 01),Mg2 浓度降低(P<0 01);胃腺癌细胞仅有Ca2 浓度升高(P<0 05),Mg2 浓度无变化。阿托品能阻断乙酰胆碱的作用(P<0 05)。结论:乙酰胆碱对胃粘膜上皮细胞和胃腺癌细胞的作用是通过毒蕈碱受体实现的。     

蝗虫体内无机物的百分含量

动物体的鲜重(FM)、干重(DM)、灰分重(AM)及其比值在不同分类群和不同生态型的动物类群中变化很大,其中 DM/FM 和 AM/DM 比值反映了动物体水、无机矿物质和有机物三者之间的比例,是了解动物体化学组成的两个重要参数.我们在进行直翅目蝗总科昆虫整体痕量元素含量分析的同时,测定和计算了35种蝗总科昆虫的AM/DM 比值,现将结果以及其它主要动植物类群的有关资料一并介绍如下.

Influence of Microstructure and Sintering Routes on Transport Properties of Apatite Materials for Fuel Cells

1 Results Oxy-apatite materials are thought as zirconia-substitutes in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells due to their fast ionic conduction. However, the well known difficulties related to their densification prevent them from being used as such. This study presents strategies to obtain oxy-apatite dense materials and the influence of elaboration route on transport properties. Particular emphasis is put on the microstructure effect on ion conduction. By the combined use of freeze-drying and conventional or spark p...     

New Membranes Based on Polybenzimidazole for Polymer Fuel Cells

1 Results Acid-doped polybenzimidazoles[1] are particularly appealing because of high proton conductivity with no or low humidification and promising fuel cells performances. PBI, in fact, contains basic functional groups which can easily interact with strong oxo-acids, such as H3PO4 and H2SO4. The acid partially protonates the polymer and partially is freely dispersed in the polymer backbone, so allowing proton migration via Grotthuss mechanism along the anionic chains[2]. Anyway, a technological limit...     

超临界CO2在制备PCL/水杨酸甲酯控释体系中的应用研究

本文利用超临界二氧化碳（SCCO2）对生物可降解材料--聚己内酯（PCL）进行溶胀和塑化,进而将其作为携带剂,将水杨酸甲酯嵌入到PCL中,制备含有水杨酸甲酯的PCL多孔材料,即PCL/水杨酸甲酯控释体系,并研究超临界流体条件下水杨酸甲酯的插嵌规律.研究结果表明,PCL对水杨酸甲酯有很好的吸附能力,通过测定所制备的多孔材料PCL/水杨酸甲酯体系的缓释行为,表明其多孔结构对药物分子具有一定的缓释功能,药物分子释放时间最长可达18 h以上.     

Surface molecules regulating rolling and adhesion to endothelium of neutrophil granulocytes and MDA-MB-468 breast carcinoma cells and their interaction

The extravasation of leukocytes and tumor cells is a multi-step process with the involvement of various adhesion molecules depending on the three steps rolling, adhesion, and diapedesis. We have developed an in vitro model, by which we investigated the rolling and adhesion of neutrophil granulocytes and MDA-MB-468 human breast carcinoma cells to lung endothelial cells under physiological flow-conditions. We found that norepinephrine had an inhibitory function on the fMLP-promoted adhesion of neutrophil granulocytes due to a down-regulation of β2-integrin. Furthermore, neutrophil granulocytes serve as linking cells for the interaction of the MDA-MB-468 cells with the endothelium, which are both β2-integrin negative, but express the β2-integrin ligand ICAM-1. In addition, we show here that N-cadherin is up-regulated on the endothelial cells and on neutrophil granulocytes in response to fMLP. This up-regulation resulted in a significant increase of adherent MDA-MB-468 cells, which are also N-cadherin positive.

Cardiovascular development: towards biomedical applicability

Advances in our understanding of cardiac development have fuelled research into cellular approaches to myocardial repair of the damaged heart. In this collection of reviews we present recent advances into the basic mechanisms of heart development and the resident and non-resident progenitor cell populations that are currently being investigated as potential mediators of cardiac repair. Together these reviews illustrate that despite our current knowledge about how the heart is constructed, caution and much more research in this exciting field is essential. The current momentum to evaluate the potential for cardiac repair will in turn accelerate research into fundamental aspects of myocardial biology.
