Objective To illustrate the features of soman induced signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) gene and protein expressions in cell line PC 12 . Methods The expression levels of STAT1, 3 and 5 mRNAs and protein in PC 12 cells were detected by semi quantitative RT PCR and Western blotting. PC 12 cells at 5~8 passages were randomly divided into 5 groups: control, intoxication groups for 2, 6, 12 and 24 h respectively. The products were sequenced by Sanger's double strand DNA sequence determination. Results The expression levels of STAT1, 3 and 5 mRNAs and proteins increased in PC 12 cell at 2 h and reached the highest at 12 h, then decreased at 24 h, but they were still higher than those of the control. The sequences of amplification products by RT PCR were the same to those in GenBank. Conclusion Soman intoxication can enhance the expression of STATs in PC 12 cells. STAT genes may possibly play an important role in brain injury.

Objective To investigate the effect of soman on the Janus kinases (JAKs) expression in cell line PC 12 . Methods The PC 12 cell was used in these experiments and treated with soman at a concentration of 20 ?mol/L . RT PCR and Western blotting were employed to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of JAK1, JAK2 and JAK3 at the time points of 0, 6, 12 and 24 h. The products were sequenced by Sanger's double strand DNA sequence determination. Results The expression levels of JAK1, JAK2 and JAK3 mRNAs and proteins increased at 2 h, reached the highest at 12 h and decreased at 24 h, but they were still higher than those of the control. It was shown that the sequences of amplification products by RT PCR were the same to corresponding ones in GenBank. Conclusion Soman intoxication enhances the expression of Janus kinases in PC 12 cells. JAKs genes may play an important role in brain injury due to soman intoxication.

Objective To investigate the effects of anticholinergic antidote and rhodosin on the brain injury induced by soman intoxication combined with hypobaric hypoxia in rats. Methods A total of 72 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups: hypoxia control (HC), hypoxia plus soman (HS), hypoxia plus soman plus anticholinergic antidote (HSAA), and hypoxia plus soman plus anticholinergic antidote plus rhodosin (HSAAR). The animals after soman intoxication (72 ?g/kg) were placed in a hypobaric (62 kPa) apparatus for hypoxic exposure for 48 h. Rats were sacrificed for brain tissue detachment at the time points of 12, 24, and 48 h. Evans blue (EB) content and PLA 2 activity were detected biochemically. CaM concentration was determined by radioimmuno assay. Results Compared with the rats in HC, soman induced significant increases of brain EB, PLA 2, and CaM at 12, 24, and 48 h in HS. Elevated EB, PLA 2, and CaM induced by hypoxia and soman intoxication in rats in group HSAA were obviously attenuated by anticholinergic antidote. More significant decreases of brain EB, PLA 2, and CaM were found in rats in group HSAA. Conclusion Both anticholinergic antidote and anticholinergic antidote plus rhodosin have the preventive effect on rat brain damage induced by soman intoxication combined with hypoxia.

Objective To compare clinical effects of continuous spinal, epidural and combined spinal-epidural anesthesia for arthroplasty in the elderly over 70 years. Methods Sixty geriatric patients, ASA status Ⅱ~Ⅲ degree, aged 71~98 yr, undergoing arthroplasty operation on hip or knee joint, were randomly assigned to group of continuous spinal anesthesia, group of combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, or group of continuous epidural anesthesia, with twenty patients of per group. T_ 10 anesthesia level was aimed by 0.5% bupivacaine titrated carefully. Results All anesthesia were clinically satisfied with average anesthesia level T_ 10(T_ 7~11). Bromage's motor blockade scale in group of continuous spinal anesthesia was higher than that in group of continuous epidural anesthesia. Amount of bupivacaine consumptions were (8.0?1.8)mg, (13.7?9.7)mg, (39.4?16.6)mg in groups of continuous spinal anesthesia, combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, and continuous epidural anesthesia respectively (P0.05). Conclusions With 0.5% bupivacaine titrated carefully, all kinds of continuous spinal, epidural and combined spinal-epidural anesthesia are clinical efficient in the elderly over 70 years for arthroplasty, of which continuous spinal anesthesia is recommended due to the most stable hemodynamics.

AIM: To obtain a McAb that can inhibit the function of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), we expressed the fibronectin-like domain of MMP-2 (MFD) in vitro and prepared a McAb against MMP-2. METHODS: The purified MFD protein was used to immunize BALB/C mouse three times. Then the spleen of mouse was taken out and hybridized with hybridoma cells SP2/0. The positive cell clones were screened with ELISA method. The subtype and tissue specificity of the McAb were identified and its effect on endothelial cell migration and tube-formation was analyzed. RESULTS: After the spleen cells of the mouse and hybridoma cells SP2/0 were hybridized, a piece of cells that continuously secreted McAb against MMP-2 was obtained and named SZ-117. The titers of this McAb in culture supernatants and ascites were 2?10~-3 and 2?10~-5 , respectively. The heavy chain of the McAb belongs to IgG1 subclass. The McAb identified native MMP-2. MMP-2 existed in the stromal tissue of stomach, cholecystis, spleen, ovarian, prostate, salping and lymph node. It inhibited the invasion behavior of endothelial cells Eahy926 and pancreatic carcinoma cells 1990 and inhibited the tube-formation of Eahy926 cells. CONCLUSION: A useful tool for testing MMP-2 is obtained and it will be helpful to look for a kind of new anti-tumor material.

Objective To observe the onset of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) senescence induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP) and the intervention effect of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Methods The VSMCs were divided into four groups: blank control group, t-BHP group (incubated with 80 μmol/L t-BHP for 72 h), 10 nmol/L DHEA intervention group (pretreated with 10 nmol/L DHEA 30 min before t-BHP) and 100 nmol/L DHEA intervention group (pretreated with 100nmol/L DHEA 30 min before t-BHP). Two ageing markers of ageing associated β-galactosidase activity and cell proliferation activity were adopted as main indexes. β-galactosidase activity was measured with immunocytochemical method and cell proliferation activity was measured with flowcytometry. Results After continuous treatment with 80 mmol/L t-BHP for 72 h, the ratios of G0/G1 phase cells and SA-β-galactosidase staining positive cells increased as compared with blank controlgroup [(89.4±3.4)% vs. (49.5±5.5)%, (3.5±1.2)% vs. (75.3±4.3)%], which indicated that VSMCs senescence were successfully induced by t-BHP. While the above changes were smaller in 100 nmol/L DHEA intervention group than in t-BHP group. Conclusions With ageing,accumulation of damage produced by reactive oxygen species may be an important mechanism causing the onset of VSMCs senescence. DHEA may be able to retard the progression of VSMCs senescence through antioxidant effect.
