Effects of swimming associated with risedronate in osteopenic bones: An experimental study with ovariectomized rats

Physical activity and risedronate sodium have effects on metabolic bone diseases, maintaining the integrity of bone tissue. Our objective was to evaluate the effects of swimming associated with risedronate as a prophylactic means in osteopenic bone of ovariectomized rats. A total of 24 animals of the Wistar strain were used and separated into four groups containing six animals: Ovariectomy (OVX), ovariectomy and swimming (OVXS), ovariectomy and risedronate (OVXM), ovariectomy, risedronate and swimming (OVXMS). The effectiveness of the treatments were evaluated using the tibia by means of biomechanical, radiographic, histomorphometric analyzes. Statistical analysis was performed by the non-parametric Kruskal–Wallis test (p < 0.05). The OVXM and OVXMS groups showed higher values ​​compared to OVX in maximum strength and rigidity. Microscopic analysis showed increased trabecular bone in the OVXM group in relation to the others, and in the OVXMS compared to OVXS. Proximal densitometry in the OVXM and OVXMS groups showed higher values than the OVX and OVXS groups. There were no significant differences in overall densitometry. In conclusion, when comparing the prophylactic means, risedronate was able to preserve bone mass significantly, unlike exercise where an improvement of bone tissue was observed, although not significant, and when swimming and risedronate are combined the result was even better.     

儿童的铅中毒问题──Ⅱ．彩色油墨中铅的测定

用能量色散Ｘ射线荧光分析法测定了某厂生产的４４种彩色油墨纸中的铅含量．结果发现，除５种油墨外，其它３９种彩色油墨纸中的铅含量均比对照纸中高９倍以上，其中桔黄色、桔红色树脂胶版油墨高５００倍以上，棕色树脂胶版油墨高３７９倍，深黄色和柠檬黄色树脂铅印油墨分别高１７０和１１３倍．这表明，彩色油墨印刷品可能是儿童慢性铅中毒的重要污染源．     

Intravascular and Intracellular Hepatic Relaxivities of Superparamagnetic Particles: An Isolated and Perfused Organ Pharmacokinetics Study

The relative contributions of intravascular and intracellular compartments to the proton transverse relaxation of the isolated and excised rat liver were determined during the phagocytosis of superparamagnetic particles. The evolution of the proton transverse magnetization of the organ perfused with increasing doses of starch-coated magnetic microspheres was followed up using a Carr–Purcell–Meiboom–Gill sequence with various echo times. From the multiexponential fit of the echo train, the amplitudes and the relaxation ratesR₂of the liver tissue were obtained. The results clearly indicate that shortly after contrast medium administration, an internalization takes place which can be followed by the rapid and biphasic evolution of the transverse relaxation rate of the water protons. A very fast decaying component looking like an initial loss of the magnetization is observed together with an increase of the relaxation rate of the remaining water tissue. This regime is strongly dependent on both the echo time and the iron concentration, a behavior characteristic of the agglomeration of magnetic particles. The examination of the liver tissues by electron microscopy shows that this clustering arises in cytoplasmic vacuoles.

LC-MS法分析鸡肝中的玉米赤霉醇

玉米赤霉醇(Zeranol)是一种非甾体类激素,具有促进家畜蛋白质合成和增重的作用。由于其在动物组织中残留,目前在欧盟被禁用。2002年4月我国农业部第193号公告和2002年11月农业部、国家药品监督管理局第227号公告中规定禁止使用玉米赤霉醇,但由于玉米赤霉醇作为畜禽增重剂效果好、经济回报高,仍有一些不法饲养业主受利益驱使而违法使用。为保证动物源性食品安全,维护人民身体健康,必须建立一种适用、可行、规范的残留检测方法以适应当前加入WTO的形势需要。本实验建立了高效液相色谱-质谱联用法(LC-MS)测定鸡肝中玉米赤霉醇,旨在为政府监控禽类产品中的玉米赤霉醇提供准确可靠的检测方法。

The role of TLC in the screening of inherited metabolic diseases

Summary Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a rapid, reliable and inexpensive screening technique for diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases (IMD). Our screening program encompasses five main situations where the use of TLC is considered to be vindicated: (i) analysis of amino acids; (ii) screening for sugar defects; (iii) detection of pathological oligosaccharidurias; (iv) screening for organic acid disorders; and (v) detection of abnormalities in tryptophan metabolism. Examples are presented of chromatograms obtained from pathological samples. Presented at the 21^st ISC held in Stuttgart, Germany, 15^th–20^th September, 1996
