1.Effects of ascorbic acid and cortisol on the antigen-presenting function (APF) of normal human monocytes
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(04):-
Mononuclear cells obtained from heparinized fresh venous blood of healthy male blood donors by means of Ficoll-Hypaque densitz gradient centrifugation were subjected to petri dish adhesion and nylon-wool-column separation to harvest monocytes (Mon) and T lymphocytes (T) high purity, respectively. APF of Mon, as reflected by ~3H-TdR incorporated T proliferation, was assayed after the Mon had been preincubated with PPD (purified protein derivative, end concentration 9.25 ?g/ml), PPD+ascorbic acid, PPD+cortisol, and PPD+ascorbic acid+cortisol for 24 hours at 37℃, in a humidified incubator containing 5% CO_2. It was shown that APF of the Mon was markedly enhanced by ascorbic acid in a concentration of 3.75mM (P0.05).

Objective To purify rabbit anti-hRBBP10 polyclonal antibody.Methods The recombinant fusion protein PTC-hRBBP10 was expressed in the E.coli and was purified through amylose resin chromatography column and superose 12 gel fitration .The purified PTC-hRBBP10 was coupled to the NHS-activated sepharoseTM to prepare affinity chromatography column to purify rabbit anti-hRBBP10 polyclonal antibody. Results ① PTC-hRBBP10 was expressed and purified successfully with relative molecular mass(Mr) of 80?103 and its purity could reach about 95%.② Purified Rabbit anti-hRBBP10 polyclonal antibody could bind Specifically to PTC-hRBBP10.Conclusions With better specificity, The purified rabbit anti-hRBBP10 polyclonal antibody provide condition for studying the function of the protein, and helps to develop new techniques of tumor diagnosis and treatment.

AIM: To study dynamically the effect on the rabbits after fine carbon fiber powder was transplanted into their cranium. METHODS: After fine carbon fiber powder was injected into subdural cavity of rabbits, examination of histopathology and EEG were carried out. RESULTS: General observation: 1-104 weeks after injecting, no neuropathological changes concerning with the injecting of the carbon fiber powder were found in the rabbits of experimental group; Under optical microscopes: 1-2 weeks after injecting, slight inflammatory reaction in meninx was found and disappeared generally 4 weeks after injecting, no obvious fiber membrane was found around the carbon fiber, no significant differences were showed between the experimental group (EG) and the control group (CG); Examination of EEG: 1-2 weeks after injecting, slight abnormal changes of EEG in both two groups were showed, but no significant differences was found between them. 4 weeks after injecting, the EEG of the two groups was restored to their normal state before injecting. 1-8 weeks after injecting, no obvious epilepsy waves were showed. CONCLUSION: The fine carbon fiber powder showed excellent histocompatibility after injected into the subdural cavity of rabbits.

AIM and METHODS: After the fine carbon fiber powder was injected into the right subdural space of the mice, dynamic observation was carried out on their movement and histopathological changes. RESULTS: 1-52 weeks after the injecting, no neurological changes concerning with the implanting of the carbon fiber powder were found in the experimental mice. The fine carbon fiber extensively located on the inter surface of the dura mater membrane of the right temporalis and the out surface of pie mater. Only slight inflammatory cells reaction was found under optical microscopes. The degree of inflammation reaction are Grade Ⅱ 1 week after injection and was Grade Ⅰ 2 weeks after injection, inflammation was disappeared 4 weeks after injection. No obvious fiber membrane was found around the implanted materials. No significant differences were found between the experimental and the control group.CONCLUSION: It was showed that the carbon fiber shares excellent histocompatibility after injected into the subdural space and subarechnoid cavity of the right temple of mice.
