Aim To explore the effects and mechanism of ginsenoside-Rg1 on SK-N-SH cells treated with chronic morphine and naloxone-precipitated withdrawal. Methods Cells were pretreated with ginsenoside-Rg1 1,2,4,8,16,32 ?mol?L-1 for 24 h,then incubated for 24 h with morphine ( 100 ?mol?L-1 ) . MTT colorimetr was used to study the effects of ginsenoside-Rg1 on the multiplication of the cells treated with chro-nic morphine. After stimulated by the same concentra-tion of morphine,cells were added with different concentrations of Rg1 1,2,4 ?mol?L -1 for 24 h before stimulated with 10 ?mol?L -1 NAL. Fuorospectrophotometry RT-PCR and Western blot techniques were used to detect the effects of ginsenoside-Rg1 on the [Ca2+ ]i,CaMKⅡ ? mRNA and protein expression of the SK-N-SH cells treated with chronic morphine and naloxone-precipitated withdrawal. Results ① Compared with control group,morphine significantly inhibited cell multiplication and resulted in calcium overload,and the expression of CaMKⅡ-? mRNA and protein noticeably increased ( P

Objective:To explore the mechanism of exacerbating chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD) in mice with inflammatory status and enhancing immune injury in mice with PD-1.Method:Bone marrow and spleen cells of DBA/2 mice were injected into BALB/C mice pretreated with chemotherapy regimen (Flu+Bu) for constructing a chronic GVHD model. The animals were assigned into two groups of zymosan (100M SPL+10M BM+Zymosan) and control (100M SPL+10M BM+ PBS). After transplantation, two groups of mice were observed for weight changes, survival status and chronic GVHD manifestations. Target organ tissues were harvested for pathological scoring. Flow cytometry was employed for detecting cell subpopulations and surface co-stimulatory molecules in target organs. PD-1 monoclonal antibody was injected into inflammatory murine model. Mice were observed and target organ cells were harvested for subsets and co-stimulatory factors.Result:In in vivo experiments, zymosan group showed more significant changes of chronic GVHD with higher mortality rate, faster weight loss and more severe symptoms of GVHD. At Week 2 post-transplantation, hematoxylin-eosin stain of target organ tissue was performed for pathology examination. Zymosan group showed more lymphocyte infiltration, more severe inflammation and more significant tissue injury with higher GVHD pathological score. The proportion of M2 in liver/lung of zymosan group was significantly lower than that of control group ( P<0.05) and no significant difference existed in the proportion of M1. In in vivo experiments, M1 ratio of splenic cell spiked markedly in zymosan group as compared to control group while M2 ratio declined greatly. The secretions of IL-4 and IL-10 dropped significantly while co-stimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 rose obviously. Conclusion:The worsening graft-versus-host disease in inflammatory mice with anti-PD1 treatment is associated with a decline of Treg proportion.

Objective To explore the difference of myocardial injury between off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) and modified perfusion on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB). Methods A total of 558 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from 2017 to 2019 were included. According to whether or not they received modified perfusion cardiopulmonary bypass, all the 558 patients were divided into two groups including an OPCAB group (OP group) and an ONCAB group (ON group). There were 465 patients in the OP group including 282 males and 183 females with an average age of 63.58±7.87 years. In the ON group, there were 93 patients including 64 males and 29 females with an average age of 63.91±7.51 years. Creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and cardiac specific troponin I (cTnI) were measured 24 hours before operation, 30 minutes after operation, 12 hours after operation, 36 hours after operation and 48 hours after operation. Results No perioperative death occurred in all patients. CK-MB (5.00 ng/mL vs. 8.60 ng/mL, Z=–2.189, P=0.029) and cTnI (3.00 ng/mL vs. 7.80 ng/mL, Z=–5.307, P=0.000) in postoperative 12 hours in the ON group were less than those in the OP group. CK-MB (5.00 ng/mL vs. 5.60 ng/mL, Z=–2.280, P=0.023) and cTnI (0.10 ng/mL vs. 1.02 ng/mL, Z=–6.418, P=0.000) in postoperative 36 hours in the ON group were less than those in the OP group. cTnI (0.07 ng/mL vs. 0.81 ng/mL, Z=–1.946, P=0.032) in postoperative 48 hours in the ON group was less than that in the OP group. Conclusion Compared with OPCAB, modified perfusion ONCAB has less myocardial damage.

Objective To investigate the influence of different discontinuation time of clopidogrel and aspirin before off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting on postoperative volume of drainage and blood products imported. Methods A total of 454 patients who underwent coronary artery bypass grafting in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from January 2017 through December 2019 were included. According to the preoperative discontinuation of clopidogrel and aspirin, all the 454 patients were divided into three groups including a guide group, a non-stop group and a stop group. There were 86 patients in the guide group including 59 males and 27 females with an average age of 64.12±6.15 years. They continued to take aspirin 100 mg/d before operation, but stopped clopidogrel for more than 5 days. In the non-stop group, there were 234 patients including 141 males and 93 females with an average age of 63.71±7.01 years. They continued to take aspirin 100 mg/d before operation, and stopped clopidogrel <5 days. In the stop group, there were 134 patients including 76 males and 58 females with an average age of 62.90±7.78 years. They stopped aspirin and clopidogrel for more than 5 days before operation. The clinical effectiveness was compared among the three groups. Results No perioperative death occurred in all patients. There was no statistical difference in platelet count, coagulation function, liver function, renal function, or myocardial markers among the groups (P>0.05). The hemoglobin [97 (15) g/ L vs. 98 (21) g/L vs. 100 (20) g/L, F=4.894, P=0.008] in the non-stop group was lower than that in the guide group and the non-stop group at 30 minutes postoperatively. The flow volume (399.87±127.19 mL vs. 367.05±125.89 mL vs. 349.63±130.68 mL, F=7.770, P=0.000) in the non-stop group at 3 hours postoperatively, the flow volume [600 (300) mL vs. 580 (245) mL vs. 550 (350) mL, Z=8.218, P=0.016] in the non-stop group at 6 hours postoperatively, the flow volume [750 (370) mL vs. 730 (350) mL vs. 730 (350) mL, Z=8.329, P=0.016] in the non-stop group at 12 hours postoperatively, the flow volume [890 (365) mL vs. 850 (340) mL vs. 850 (350) mL vs. Z=6.585, P=0.037] in the non-stop group at 24 hours postoperatively and the flow volume [950 (375) mL vs. 940 (360) mL vs. 940 (380) mL, Z=8.680, P=0.013] in the non-stop group at 48 hours postoperatively were more than those of the guide group and the stop group. The retention time of drainage tube was longer in the non-stop group [3 (1) d vs. 3 (1) d vs. 3 (1) d, Z=6.579, P=0.037] than in the guide group and the non-stop group. The amount of suspended erythrocytes input [0 (2) U vs. 0 (2) U vs. 0 (0) U, Z=6.150, P=0.046], and the amount of plasma input [200 (200) mL vs. 0 (200) mL vs. 0 (200) mL, F=4.144, P=0.016], the number of cases of plasma input (119 patients vs. 34 patients vs. 47 patients, Z=10.116, P=0.006) were more than those of the guide group and the stop group. Conclusion Aspirin maintenance is recommended for patients before off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. If not necessary, clopidogrel is discontinued for at least 5 days.

Objective To explore the effect of whether or not to stop beating after conversion to cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods From 2016 to 2018, 177 patients with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were transferred to CPB. According to whether they stopped beating after conversion to CPB during the operation, they were divided into two groups. A non-stop beating group: there were 76 patients with 45 males, 31 females. aged 63.53±6.98 years, who were not to stop beating after conversion to CPB. A stop beating group: there were 101 patients with 66 males and 35 females, aged 63.98 ± 8.37 years, who were to stop beating and underwent the modified perfusion and application of papaverine in perfusion after conversion to CPB. The clinical effect of the two groups was compared. Results There were 14 deaths in the perioperative period. The mean graft flow (MGF) in the stop beating group was higher (P=0.033), and the pulse index (PI) was lower (P=0.001) than those in the non-stop beating group. Intra-aortic balloon counter pulsation (P=0.036), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (P=0.038), continuous renal replacement therapy (P=0.014), ventilator-assisted time (P=0.021), ICU monitoring time (P=0.012), perioperative mortality (P=0.025) and the ejcetion fraction value (P=0.023) were significantly different between the groups. Conclusion Compared with not to stop beating, those to stop beating can get better perioperative clinical effect after conversion to CPB, which is worthy of recommendation.
