Objective To investigate the effects of ischemic postconditioning on mitochondrial permeability transition and mitochondrial transmembrane potential(△Ψm)following hepatic ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)in rats.Methods Forty male SD rats weighing 220-260 g were randomly divided into 5 groups with 8 animals in each group:sham operation group(group S);atractyloside+sham operation group(group A+S);I/R group;ischemic postconditioning group(group IPO)and atractyloside+ischemic postconditioning group(group A+IPO).The animals were anesthetized with intramuscular injection of atropine 0.05 mg/kg.Hepatic I/R was produced by occlusion of hepatic blood flow for 60 min followed by 6 h reperfusion.In group A+S,atractyloside 5 mg/kg was injected intravenously before abdomen Was closed.In group IPO,the animals were subjected to 3 cycles of 1 min reperfusion interspersed with 1 min hepatic isehemia at the end of 60 min hepatic ischemia.In group A+IPO,atractyloside 5 mg/kg was injected intravenously before reperfusion. Venous blood samples were collected for determination of serum ALT and AST activities immediately before ischemia and at 6 h of reperfusion. The animals were then sacrificed.Their livers were removed for microscopic examination, detection of apoptosis and determination of cytochrome c (Cyt c) expression, △Ψm and mitochonerial permeability transition pore (MPTP)activity. Apoptosis index (AI) was calculated. Results There was no significant difference in serum ALT and AST activities, AI, Cyt c expression, △Ψm and MPTP activity between S and A + S groups (P>0.05). Compared with group S, serum ALT and AST activities and AI were significantly increased, Cyt c expression was up-regulated, △Ψm was decreased and MPTP activity was increased in groups I/R, IPO and A+IPO(P<0.05).Compared with group I/R, serum ALT and AST activities and AI were significantly decreased,Cyt c expression was down-regulated, △Ψm was increased and MPTP activity was decreased in group IPO(P<0.05), while no significant change was found in group A+IPO(P>0.05).Compared with group IPO,serum ALT and AST activities and AI were significantly increased, Cyt c expression was up-regulated, △Ψm was decreased and MPTP activity was increased in group A + IPO(P< 0.05).Microscopic examination showed that hepatic injury was reduced in group IPO compared with group I/R, while aggravated in group A+ IPO compared with group IPO. Conclusion Ischemic postconditioning can protect liver from I/R injury by attenuating the I/R-induced increase in MPTP opening and decrease in △Ψm in rats.

Objective To detect the change of brain activity under different depth of anesthesia (DOA)noninvasively. Methods The Lempel-Ziv complexity C(n) was used to analyze EEG and its four components (delta,theta, alpha, beta), which was recorded from SD rats under different DOA. The relationship between C(n) and DOA was studied. Results The C(n) of EEG will decrease while the depth of anesthesia increasing and vice versa. It can be used to detect the change of DOA sensitively. Compared with power spectrum, the change of C(n) is opposite to that of power spectru,. Only the C(n) of delta rhythm has obvious variations induced by the change of DOA, and the variations of delta is as similar as the EEG's. Conclusion The study shows that the desynchronized EEG is replaced by the synchronized EEG when rat goes into anesthesia state from awake, that is just the reason why complexity and power spectrum appear corresponding changes under different DOA. C(n) of delta rhythm dynamic change leads to the change of EEG, and the delta rhythm is the dominant rhythm during anesthesia for rats.
