Formol-calcium acetate-fixed sections of the mantle of Parreysia corrugata var. nagpoorensis (Lea) were subjected to various histochemical reactions for mucosubstances. The results of these reactions on the inner marginal fold indicate that it possesses two types of mucous cells secreting sulphomucins and sialomucins. The sulphated mucus is strongly alcianophilic. Its alcianophilia persists when the tissues are stained with Alcian blue in concentration of up to 0.5 M magnesium chloride. The basal inner epithelial cells of the fold contain glycogen while the remaining cells contain neutral muscosubstances. The role of the mucosubstances with reference to feeding is discussed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a single-dose treatment for acute repetitive seizure (ARS) episodes (e.g., clusters) administered in a nonmedical setting by caregivers. BACKGROUND: Patients with epilepsy may experience ARS episodes despite optimal anticonvulsant treatment. Such episodes require rapid treatment as medical emergencies. Typically, the patient is treated in an emergency medical setting with i.v. medication by trained medical personnel. METHODS: The authors undertook a multicenter, randomized, parallel, double-blind study of a single administration of Diastat (diazepam rectal gel) for treating episodes of ARS. ARS episodes and treatment criteria were defined for each patient at the start of the study. Caregivers were taught to determine ARS episode onset, administer a predetermined dose of study medication, monitor outcome, count respirations, and record seizures and adverse events. RESULTS: A total of 29 centers enrolled 158 patients, of whom 114 patients had a treated ARS episode (Diastat, n = 56; placebo, n = 58). Diastat treatment reduced median seizure frequency (p = 0.029). More Diastat patients were seizure free post-treatment (Diastat, 55%; placebo, 34%; p = 0.031). Kaplan-Meier analysis of the time to the next seizure favored Diastat treatment (p < 0.007). The most common adverse event was somnolence. CONCLUSION: Administration of a single rectal dose of Diastat was significantly more effective than placebo in reducing the number of seizures following an episode of ARS. Caregivers could administer treatment safely and effectively in a nonmedical setting. 相似文献

Adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) and adrenal steroids may influence trophic processes operative in neuronal plasticity. Because nerve growth factor (NGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) participate in neuronal trophism, we have investigated whether adrenal steroids induce the expression of these two trophic factors in the rat brain. The systemic administration of dexamethasone (DEX) elicited a rapid (within 3 hr) and sustained accumulation of bFGF and NGF mRNA in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. Regional studies showed that DEX increases bFGF but not NGF mRNA in the cerebellum, striatum, and hypothalamus. In situ hybridization studies revealed that DEX increases NGF mRNA in superficial layers of the cerebral cortex and in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, and bFGF mRNA throughout the brain, suggesting that DEX induces NGF mRNA in neurons and bFGF in glial cells. ACTH administered systemically elicited a temporal and regional induction in NGF and bFGF mRNA similar to that obtained with DEX. Increases in NGF and bFGF mRNAs were also observed after administration of corticosterone and, albeit to a lesser extent, aldosterone, suggesting that the pituitary-adrenocortical axis plays an important role in the regulation of NGF and bFGF expression in the brain. Our data suggest that NGF and bFGF represent a link by which the adrenal cortical system can exert trophic action on the CNS. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess the pituitary responsiveness to GnRH stimulation of premenopausal women relative to age. DESIGN: Older and younger reproductive-age women underwent the GnRH stimulation test in the early follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. SETTING: Female subjects in an academic research environment. PATIENTS: Women aged 21 to 44 years consisting of normal volunteers and infertility patients. INTERVENTIONS: Gonadotropin-releasing hormone was administered intravenously between days 2 and 4 of the menstrual cycle. Blood samples were collected from -20 minutes before to 120 minutes after administration. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Luteinizing hormone, FSH, inhibin, and E2 levels. RESULTS: No significant difference in baseline values existed between older and younger women with regard to LH, inhibin, and E2, but basal FSH levels were higher in older women. A significantly diminished percent of LH and percent FSH change above baseline occurred 30 minutes after GnRH administration in the older women compared with younger women. No change in inhibin or E2 levels could be detected during the sampling period. CONCLUSIONS: The present study demonstrates marked attenuation of the acute pituitary LH response (sensitivity) to GnRH stimulation in older women when compared with a younger cohort. 相似文献
