    Notizen: In order to enhance growth, survival and quality during early juvenile stages of marine fish it is important to avoid lipid oxidation problems that are known to cause pathologies and disease. The aim of the present study was to characterize and compare the antioxidant systems in juvenile marine fish of commercial importance in European aquaculture, namely turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), halibut (Hippoglossus hippoglossus) and gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata). The experiment investigated the interaction of the dietary antioxidant micronutrient, vitamin E, with antioxidant defence systems. Fish were fed with diets of identical unsaturation index supplemented with graded amounts of vitamin E. The relationships between dietary and subsequent tissue vitamin E levels were determined as well as the effects of vitamin E supplementation on lipid and fatty acid compositions of both liver and whole fish, on the activities of the liver antioxidant defence enzymes, and on the levels of liver and whole body lipid peroxidation products, malondialdehyde (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances, TBARS) and isoprostanes. Growth and survival was only significantly affected in sea bream where feeding the diet with the lowest vitamin E resulted in decreased survival and growth. A gradation was observed in tissue vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)/vitamin E levels in response to dietary vitamin E levels in all species. The activities of the main radical scavenging enzymes in the liver, catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase generally reflected dietary and tissue vitamin E levels being highest in fish fed with the lowest level of vitamin E. The indicators of lipid peroxidation gave consistent results in all three species, generally being highest in fish fed with the unsupplemented diet and generally lowest in fish fed with the diet with highest vitamin E. In this respect, isoprostane levels generally paralleled TBARS levels supporting their value as indicators of oxidative stress in fish. Overall the relationships observed were logical in that decreased dietary vitamin E led to decreased levels of tissue vitamin E, and generally higher activities of the liver antioxidant enzymes and higher levels of lipid peroxides.

    Notizen: Idiotypes are molecular clues used to explore the specificity and diversity of immune response. In the present study, anti-idiotype antibodies were used to neutralize the pathogenic effects induced by the injection of pemphigus immunoglobulin(Ig)G into BALB/c mice. To achieve our goal, antidesmoglein 1 IgG was obtained from a patient with pemphigus foliaceus with high titer of antiepithelial antibodies. The IgG was isolated by ion exchange chromatography, then digested by pepsin. F(ab′)2 fragments were purified in Sephacryl S-300 and injected in rabbits to produce anti-idiotype antibodies. The rabbit sera reacted with the pemphigus F(ab′)2 fragments. Eleven pemphigus foliaceus sera were recognized by the anti-idiotype serum at the light or heavy chains whereas bullous pemphigoid and normal IgG were negative. Neonatal BALB/c mice injected with pemphigus IgG developed intraepidermal blisters, mimicking the clinical and immunopathological features of the pemphigus. In contrast, the animals treated with anti-idiotype antibodies and pemphigus IgG did not develop blisters. Thus, anti-idiotype antibodies neutralize in vivo the pathogenic effects of pemphigus IgG.

    Notizen: : Electron beam irradiated sliced cantaloupe was tested for 21 d of storage for total aerobic microbial counts, texture, color, and different sensorial parameters as a function of irradiation doses 0, 0.7, and 1.4 kGy and the wash treatments, 1 and 200 ppm chlorine applied to the melons before cutting. Irradiation resulted in a reduction in the total aerobic microbial counts with increasing doses. Melons washed only with water before cutting had total aerobic bacterial counts of 4.0, 2.0, and 0.8 log colony-forming units (CFU)/g on day 0 at irradiation doses of 0, 0.7, and 1.4 kGy, respectively. Across all doses of irradiation, counts were consistently lower for cantaloupe pieces obtained from melons that had been subjected to chlorine rinse in comparison with those washed with water without chlorine. Melons washed with chlorine before cutting had total aerobic bacterial counts of 2.7, 0.7, and 0.5 log CFU/g on day 0 at irradiation doses of 0, 0.7, and 1.4 kGy, respectively. Objective color analysis indicated no significant effect of irradiation on the color of cantaloupe. Texture measured as compression force was lower only for cantaloupe irradiated at 1.4 kGy. Irradiation did not affect descriptive attribute flavor and texture sensory attributes of cantaloupe pieces. Decontamination of whole cantaloupes before cutting using chlorine wash may be combined with low-dose irradiation for shelf-life extension of sliced cantaloupe.

    Notizen: Abstract Background: The role of laparoscopic surgery in the management of colorectal cancer is controversial. This study was undertaken to determine the oncological adequacy, in terms of margins of resection, lymph node harvest, and anastomotic and locoregional recurrence of laparoscopic colectomy in patients with stage III (node-positive) colorectal cancer. Methods: The results of laparoscopic colectomy in 50 consecutive patients with stage III colorectal cancer operated on at a single hospital between 1991 and 1998 were analyzed with respect to postoperative morbidity, mortality, and long-term survival by the Kaplan-Meier method. Methodical patient follow-up was the mainstay of the study. Results: There were 31 men (52%) and 19 women (38%) with a mean age of 67.7 years (range, 40–88). Low anterior resection was performed in 17 cases, abdominal perineal resection in five cases sigmoid colectomy in 10 cases, left hemicolectomy in six cases, right hemicolectomy in seven cases, transverse colectomy in one case, and subtotal colectomy in four cases. Conversion was necessary in three cases (6%). Major complications included one leak, one pelvic abscess, one perineal wound infection, and three anastomotic strictures early in the experience, with none in the past 4 years. One early death occurred due to massive stroke. Median length of stay was 6 days (range, 3–37). Forty-six patients were staged as CII and four as CI colon cancer. The average number of positive nodes was 5.1 (range, 3–58). The margins of resection were adequate in all patients. Follow-up ranged from 3 to 75 months (average, 29.3; median, 24). Overall cancer-related mortality was 34% (17 patients); three patients died of unrelated causes with no detectable cancer. All who died of cancer had distant disease; three of them also had pelvic recurrence. Mean time of death was 21.7 months. There were no anastomotic recurrences or trocar site implants. Overall 3- and 5-year survival was 54.5% and 38.5%, respectively; cancer-adjusted survival was 60.8% and 49.1%. Conclusions: Based on this study, laparoscopic colectomy in patients with stage III colorectal cancer is oncologically adequate. It results in a long-term outcome comparable to that of traditional open surgery and is associated with low perioperative mortality and morbidity (lower wound infection rate, lower wound recurrences at trocar sites) and a shortened length of stay.

    Notizen: Abstract PURPOSE: The advent of laparoscopic surgery has altered the manner by which surgical specialties address pathologies of the abdominal cavity. This advance in technology has also changed colorectal surgery. One of the more common procedures of colorectal surgery is segmental resection for polyps that are large, broad based, or inaccessible for colonoscopic removal. We present a technique combining colonoscopy and laparoscopy to remove troublesome polyps without the need for segmental resections. METHODS: From May 1990 to September 1999 laparoscopicmonitored colonic polypectomies were performed in 47 patients, with a total of 60 polyps being removed. After laparoscopic mobilization of the involved segment of the colon, the proximal bowel is cross-clamped and the colonoscope passed to the involved portion of the colon. The polyp is then presented to the colonoscopist by the laparoscopist facilitating removal. The serosal surface is monitored for any indications of transluminal injury, and the area is repaired if needed. All polyps undergo immediate frozen section analysis. If the pathologic evaluation indicates malignancy then a segmental resection may be performed, otherwise the patients are decompressed and fed within a short time before discharge. RESULTS: The polyps were located most commonly in the ascending colon (18 polyps), transverse colon (12 polyps), and cecum (12 polyps). The most common histopathologic diagnosis was tubulovillous adenoma in 28 polyps followed by villous adenoma in 11 polyps. In three cases histopathologic diagnosis revealed malignancy necessitating segmental resection (1 low anterior resection and 2 right hemicolectomies), which were performed laparoscopically. Patients received a liquid diet within 6 hours, were discharged in an average of 21 hours, and returned to full activity, usually within days. The only complication presented in this group of patients was an umbilical port seroma. Virtually all patients (97 percent) behaved as if only a colonoscopy had been performed. Pain at the trocar sites was managed with acetaminophen 600 mg by mouth as needed. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic-monitored colonoscopic polypectomy allows patients to undergo removal of colonic polyps without a segmental resection. This less invasive procedure yields recovery times similar to that of colonoscopy alone, and the potential complications of a segmental resection are avoided. All polyps are examined by frozen section, and if a malignancy is encountered, a laparoscopic resection can be performed.
