Immunological observations following vasectomy

Summary Lymphocytotoxic antibodies (LCA) against panels of normal lymphocytes and leukemic B-cells were demonstrated in vasectomized men. Since vasectomy is known to induce antibody formation to spermatozoa, the demonstration of these lymphocytotoxic antibodies may be related to antigenic constitutents of spermatozoa such as HLA or B-cell alloantigens. Long term follow-up is needed to clarify the clinical significance of these antibodies.     

Isolation of HTLV-transformed B-lymphocyte clone from a patient with HTLV-associated adult T-cell leukaemia

The human T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma virus (HTLV) is an exogenous retrovirus which has been associated with adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATL). This malignancy of T lymphocytes is endemic to southern Japan, the West Indies, and to a lesser extent, the Middle East, Central Africa and the southeastern United States. ATL cells from patients of diverse geographical origins have been found to be infected with HTLV-1 (ref.6). HTLV is normally tropic for mature T lymphocytes, especially those expressing the helper-inducer surface antigen phenotype (OKT4 or Leu-3-positive), and the neoplastic T cells infected with HTLV generally express receptors for T-cell growth factor (detected by reactivity with anti-Tac antibody). However, we report here the isolation of a HTLV-infected B-lymphocyte clone from the peripheral blood of a patient with ATL. This clone is cytogenetically normal and is not infected with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Co-culture of cells from this clone with cord blood lymphocytes resulted in transmission of HTLV and the immortalization of either T or B lymphocytes. These results suggest that HTLV may be associated with a broader range of host cells than previously recognized.     

Depletion of hypothalamic norepinephrine reduces the fever induced by polyriboinosinic acid: polyribocytidylic acid (Poly I:Poly C) in rats

Summary Administration of either Poly I:Poly C (0.05–0.50 g) or norepinephrine (2–8 g) into the anterior hypothalamic area produced a dose-related fever in rats. The fever induced by Poly I:Poly C was attenuated after selective depletion of norepinephrine in the hypothalamus. However, selective depletion of hypothalamic norepinephrine did not affect the fever induced by intrahypothalamic norepinephrine. The data indicate that Poly I:Poly C may act to induce fever through the endogenous release of norepinephrine from the rat's hypothalamus.This work was supported by grants from the National Science Council (Taipei, Republic of China).     

石韦配方颗粒HPLC-DAD特征图谱研究

为建立石韦配方颗粒HPLC-DAD特征图谱的测定方法,采用Inertsil~ODS-2C_(18)色谱柱(4.6mm×250mm,5μm),检测波长为265nm,柱温为30℃,流动相为甲醇-0.5%(体积分数)甲酸水溶液,梯度洗脱,流速为1.0mL/min,进样量为10μL。利用《中药色谱指纹图谱相似度评价系统》2012A对10个批次的石韦配方颗粒进行了相似度评价,并对其特征色谱峰峰面积进行了聚类分析。通过与标准品对比,确证了其中的2个色谱峰;通过多点校正及自动匹配,分析确定了9个特征峰;10批石韦配方颗粒的特征图谱相似度均大于0.85,通过聚类分析可将样品分为3类。该方法准确可靠,重复性好,可用于石韦配方颗粒的质量控制。     

美国眼睛拍贵州

“老外!老外!”我走在这些乡村小街道上的时候，总听见别人这么说。我的白色皮肤、红色猎人帽和夹克衫已经明确地向所有人宣布我是个外国人。只要可能，我就希望用我有限的中文和周围的人交流：“你好!我姓杨（Young）。你呢？”我的姓氏总是让人一脸疑惑。一个白种人姓杨？“我的姓是苏格兰姓，”我总是这样解释，但这似乎没法解释这个疑惑。
