    Notes: Abstract Purpose: To study the inhibitory effects of synthetic β peptide on invasion and metastasis of liver cancer. Methods: Membrane-type intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression of SMMC-7721 cultured hepatoma cells (7721 cells) was detected by immunofluorescence cell flowmeter. The adhesion of 7721 cells to fibronectin (FN) was assayed by the MTT method. The adhesion of 7721 cells to 7721 cells, 7721 cells to endothelial cells, and 7721 cells to lymphocyte cells was detected by adhesion assay. LCI-D20 human liver cancer metastasis model in nude mice was used in this experiment. One hundred micrograms of β peptide per mouse were injected subcutaneously after tumor was resected premetastatically or postmetastatically to observe its effect on liver cancer metastasis after hepatectomy. Results: Membrane-type ICAM-1 expression of SMMC-7721 cells treated by β peptide was lower than that of the untreated cells. The adhesion of 7721 cells to FN, 7721 cells to 7721 cells, 7721 cells to endothelial cells, and 7721 cells to lymphocyte cells was also lower in the β peptide group than in the untreated group. Conclusions:β Peptide can block the adhesion of 7721 cells to FN, 7721 cells to some host cells in vitro, and inhibit HCC metastasis of LCI-D20 model posthepatectomy in vivo, so it could potentially act as an anti-metastasis drug.

    Notes: The mobility of purified μ opioid binding protein in SDS-polyacrylamide gek electrophoresis is sensitive to the presence of reducing agents. In the presence of increasing concentrations of DTT the apparent molecular weight increases in a stepwise fashion from 53 kDa to 65 kDa. This reduction in mobility is attributed to the successive breakage of disulfide bridges, resulting in an increasingly asymmetric molecule. Treatment of cell membranes from various brain areas with reducing agents, such as DTT, produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of opioid binding. Sensitivity to DTT inhibition varied between receptor types, μ 〉 δ ≫ κ. For μ receptors, agonist binding was considerably more sensitive to DTT than antagonist binding. Inhibition by DTT is readily reversible and is unaffected by Na+ and/or Mg2+ ions. Reversibility may be partially prevented by the inclusion of a low concentration of a reducing reagent such as glutathione which does not inhibit binding but blocks reformation of disulfide bonds. Scatchard analysis of saturation data shows that DTT causes a pronounced decrease in binding affinity with little effect on receptor number. It is suggested that disulfide bonds are essential for ligand binding and that cleavage of one or more of these bonds may play a role in opioid receptor activation by agonists.

    Notes: Bone-particle-impregnated bone cement specimens (up to 30% by weight) were characterized by various test methods. The experimental bone cement showed decreased crack propagation rates and increased Young's modulus, while the ultimate tensile strength and impact strength were decreased. The viscosity could be adjusted by adding initiators lost when substituting the PMMA powder with bone particles. The present study warranted fur-ther in vivo experiments on the possibility of tissue ingrowth for which the new bone cement was developed.

    Notes: The optical properties of bisphenol-A polycarbonate resin as described by the complex index of refraction, N = n - ik, are derived by Kramers-Kronig analysis of experimental absorption and reflectance data obtained in the range 40μm ≥ λ ≥ 105 nm. Electronic absorption processes in polycarbonate are characterized by two broad absorption peaks centered at ∼200 and ∼100 nm.

    Notes: The optical properties of polyetherimide resin as described by the complex index of refraction, N = n - ik, are derived by Kramers-Kronig analysis of experimental absorption and reflectance data obtained in the range 40 μm ≥ λ ≥105 nm. Potential uses of this polymer as a printed circuit board material and as a packaging medium for microelectronic circuitry and the relevance of optical data in laser-assisted processing schemes used in these and other applications are briefly discussed.
