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。

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...     

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.

塑料半薄切片法观察豆科植物根表面传递细胞

豆科植物合欢、紫云英、苜蓿等在接种根瘤菌后，部分根毛密集生长稍有膨大的根段，经FAA固定，GMA包埋，半薄切片（3um),PAS反应染色，在光学显微镜油镜下观察根的横切面发现，其表皮细胞或外皮层细胞的外切向壁上有明显的壁内突结构，属典型的根表面传递细胞，采用半薄切片，不仅操作简单，费用较少，且较易确定传递细胞发生的部位。     

慢性萎缩性胃炎与正常胃活检组织RNA分布的研究

采用异硫氰酸荧光素（FITC）标记的核糖核酸酶（FITC－RNase）作为探针，结合半薄切片技术，观察了慢性萎缩性胃炎与正常胃活检组织中RNA的分布变化，结果表明：慢性萎缩性胃啖腺体细胞内RNA明显减少，分布部位与正常胃腺体细胞差异较大，这些结果于慢性萎缩性胃炎的病理诊断提供了一些依据，对进一步从分子水平上研究慢性萎缩性胃炎的病理变化及其与胃癌的关系具有一定的意义。
