Secosesquside (1), a new secoiridoid glucoside-sesquiterpene conjugate, together with three known secoiridoid derivatives, were isolated from flower buds of Lonicera japonica. The isolated compounds were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analyses, especially 2D NMR experiments. The anti-inflammatory activities of the new compound were also evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

Forty-four patients with allergic (ABA) and non-allergic (NABA) variants of bronchial asthma (BA) were examined to evaluate levels of key adipokines (leptin, resistin, adiponectin) in sputum in different variants of BA. Adipokines in sputum and blood plasma were measured by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA). The indices that reflect the percentage of adipokines in sputum regarding adipokines in plasma of the same patients were worked out to evaluate the ratio of levels of corresponding adipokines in plasma and sputum in patients with BA. Two regularities are clearly seen in the study: the first - levels of proinflammatory adipokines (leptin, resistin) in sputum in ABA correlate directly with indicators of respiratory function but levels of anti-inflammatory adipokines (adiponectin) in sputum correlate inversely with indicators of respiratory function; the second -correlation of levels of the studied adipokines with indicators of respiratory function are almost not revealed in NABA. The first regularity reflects the important fact that the content of adipokines in bronchial secretion is to a certain extent one of regulating local mechanisms in target organ controlled system levels of corresponding adipokines in exacerbation of BA.

SummaryThis report describes the binding of plasminogen to fibrinogen adsorbed onto polystyrene wells. Binding was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Both glu- and lys-plasminogen bound to immobilized fibrinogen in a dose-dependent fashion. However, more lys- than glu-plasminogen bound when equal concentrations of either were added to immobilized fibrinogen. Plasminogen binding was inhibited by epsilon aminocaproic acid indicating that binding was mediated via lysine-binding regions of plasminogen. Soluble fibrinogen added in excess of immobilized fibrinogen did not compete for plasminogen binding but fibrinogen fragments produced by plasmin digestion of fibrinogen did. Treatment of immobilized fibrinogen with thrombin caused a small but significant (p <0.01) increase in plasminogen binding. These studies demonstrate that immobilized fibrinogen binds both glu- and lys-plasminogen and that binding is mediated via lysine-binding regions. These interactions may facilitate plasminogen binding to fibrinogen adsorbed on to surfaces and to cells such as platelets which bind fibrinogen.

SummaryAn increased level of plasma thrombomodulin (TM) in α- and β- thalassaemia was demonstrated using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Nonsplenectomized patients with β-thalassaemia/ haemoglobin E (BE) had higher levels of TM than splenectomized cases (BE-S). Patients with leg ulcers (BE-LU) were found to have the highest increase in TM level. Appearance of larger platelets in all types of thalassaemic blood was observed indicating an increase in the number of younger platelets. These data indicate that injury of vascular endothelial cells is present in thalassaemic patients.
