Objective To explore the effect of nitric oxide(NO) on pulmonary tumor necrosis factor?(TNF?) in murine acute necrotizing pancreatitis(ANP). Method Ninety-six SD rats were randomized into four groups:normal control group, ANP group, L-Arginine(L-Arg) pretreatment group and L-NAME pretreatment group (n=24 for each group). The protein content of bronchoalveolar lavage fluids(BALF), the myeloperoxidase(MPO) of lung tissue and TNF? produced by alveolar macrophages were evaluated. The expression of TNF? mRNA was measured. ResultMPO and protein of BALF reached a peak level at 12nd hr (10.78?0.58U/g for MPO and 2011?106?g/ml for protein content respectively).TNF? peaked on the sixth hour(1624?149)pg/ml. The expression of AM TNF?mRNA also peaked on the sixth hour (1.127?0.069) along with an increase of TNF? mRNA. A similar tendency was seen in L-Arg and L-NAME pretreatment groups, with changes being statistically different in the three groups when compared with that of normal control group(P

Objective: To observe the effect of elk antlers ethanolic fluidextract on behavior and immune function of aging model mice. Methods: ICR mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: Normal control group (NG), model control group (MG), low-dose drug treatment group (LG,2g/kg) and high-dose drug treatment group (HG,4g/kg). Mice were given subcutaneous injection of D-galactose (D-gal) at 120 mg/kg to induce subacute aging model. At the same time LG and HG were respectively administrated corresponding concentration of elk antlers ethanolic extract. Six weeks later, the learning and memory test was run by Y-maze. Then single agar immunodiffusion method was used to detect IgG level in serum, and spleen lymphocyte transforming stimulation index (SI) was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) method as well as the concentration of Interleukin-2(IL-2) and interferon-gama(IFN-?) in serum were determined by ELISA method. Results: The memory and immune function of aging mice declined signif icantly. Elk antlers ethanolic fluidextract could obviously improve memory ability, increase the IgG level, raise the lymphocyte transforming SI, and elevate the concentration of IL-2 and IFN-? in model mice induced by D-gal. Conclusions: Elk antlers ethanolic extract could improve behavior and immune function of aging mice to delay aging process.

lymphatic stomata.Methods The experimental study was adopted.Forty rats were divided into the control group,sham operation group,intra-abdominal infection group and intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group by the random number table,every group had 10 rats.The classic appendix perforation (CLP) intraabdominal infection model was established in the abdominal infection group.After establishing the model of abdominal infection,PD123319 solution was injected intraperitoneally immediately (0.2 g/kg) in the abdominal infection drug intervention group.Abdominal cavity of the rats in the sham operation group was opened,and then was shut after flipping the intestine.The rats in the control group,sham operation group and intra-abdominal infection group were treated with intraperitoneal injection of 1ml stroke-physiological saline solution.After 2 hours,the rats were sacrificed,and peritoneal tissue was taken for the following tests.(1) The aperture size and distribution density of peritoneal lymphatic stomata were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM).(2) The nitric oxide (NO) concentration in the peritoneal tissues was detected using nitric oxide nitric acid reduction method.(3) The expressions of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and Phospho-eNOS (P-eNOS) were detected by the Western blot.(4) The intracellular Ca2+ concentration were detect by flow cytometry.Measurement data with normal distribution were presented as-x ± s.The comparison among groups was analyzed using the ANOVA and pairwise comparison was analyzed by the LSD test.Results (1) The aperture size and distribution density of the peritoneal lymphatic stomata in the control group,sham operation group,intra-abdominal infection group and intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group were respectively (2.3 ± 0.4) μm,(2.5 ± 0.5)μm,(4.7 ±0.5)pm,(3.8 ±0.5)pm and (2.0 ±0.8) × 108/m2,(2.1 ±0.7) × 108/m2,(6.2 ± 1.3) × 108/m2,(4.6 ± 1.4) × 108/m2,with statistically significant differences among the 4 groups (F =98.130,56.780,P < 0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the aperture size and distribution density of the peritoneal lymphatic stomata between the intra-abdominal infection group and control group or intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group (t =11.586,8.573,3.854,3.098,P < 0.05) and no statistically significant differences between the control group and sham operation group (t =1.281,0.514,P >0.05).(2) The concentrations of NO in the peritoneal tissues in the control group,sham operation group,intra-abdominal infection group and intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group were respectively (0.380 ± 0.024) μmol/gprot,(0.450 ±0.020) μmol/gprot,(1.253 ±0.033) μmol/gprot and (0.579 ±0.035) μmol/gprot,with a statistically significant difference among the 4 groups (F =52.725,P < 0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the concentration of NO between the intra-abdominal infection group and control group or intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group (t =10.536,67.798,P < 0.05) and no statistically significant difference in the concentration of NO between the control group and sham operation group (t =2.007,P > 0.05).(3) The results of Western blot showed that the expressions of eNOS and P-eNOS in the control group,sham operation group,intra-abdominal infection group and intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group were respectively (0.591 ± 0.028)U/mg,(0.603 ± 0.007) U/mg,(0.615 ± 0.027) U/mg,(0.626 ±0.026) U/mg and (0.578 ±0.003)U/mg,(0.603 ± 0.071) U/mg,(0.773 ± 0.033) U/mg,(0.710 ± 0.012) U/mg,with no statistically significant difference in the expression of eNOS among the 4 groups (F =0.902,P > 0.05) and with a statistically significant difference in the expression of P-eNOS among the 4 groups (F =205.062,P < 0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the expression of P-eNOS between the control group and sham operation group or intra-abdominal infection group (t =7.678,13.322,P < 0.05) and between the intra-abdominal infection group and intraabdominal infection drug intervention group (t =4.035,P <0.05).(4) The results of flow cytometry showed that Ca2+ concentration in the control group,sham operation group,intra-abdominal infection group and intraabdominal infection drug intervention group were respectively 82.200% ± 0.060%,81.730% ± 0.052%,21.980% ± 0.010%,29.500% ± 0.004%,showing a statistically significant difference between the 4 groups (F =21 271.030,P < 0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the Ca2+ concentration between the intra-abdominal infection group and control group (t =164.750,P < 0.05) and between the intra-abdominal infection group and intra-abdominal infection drug intervention group (t =21.338,P < 0.05),and no statistically significant difference between the control group and sham operation group (t =1.861,P > 0.05).Conclusion The intra-abdominal infection could increase aperture size and distribution density of peritoneal lymphatic stomata,and PD123319 may be through inhibiting the activation of NO synthase to decrease the concentration of NO,enhance the concentration of Ca2+ in peritoneal mesothelial cells and reduce the opening of peritoneal lymphatic stomata.

Objective To study the effects of modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills on the expressions of TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 in tumor tissues on MFC gastric cancer bearing mice; To discuss relevant mechanism of action. Methods MFC gastric cancer bearing mice were employed to perform anti-tumor experiment in vivo in this study. A total of eligible 48 mice were randomly divided into model group, DDP positive control group, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose groups, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups. The treatment was conducted once a day, and lasted for 14 continuous days. After the last administration of gavage orally treatment, all mice were anaesthetized and killed by cervical dislocation method to obtain tumor tissue completely for further HE staining measure and detection of TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 in tumor tissue with the method of RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry. Meanwhile, the tumor growth was observed and the general conditions of mice were recorded. Results The model group was rich in tumor cells; the sizes of cells were different; the volume was large; the nucleus was deeply stained and the heterotypic shape was obvious, and the small focal necrosis was seen. The number of tumor cells in each administration group was reduced; the arrangement was loose; the cell volume was significantly reduced, and the nuclear pyknosis was reduced. Cell necrosis significantly increased; the number of interstitial blood vessels decreased; collagen fibers increased, especially in modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups. Compared with the model group, the expressions of TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 mRNA and protein decreased in each administration group. TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 were lighter and weakly positive expressed in modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pillshigh-dose and low-dose combined with DDP groups, the protein changes were more obvious Compared with DDP positive control group, modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills high-dose and low-dose groups. Conclusion Modified Danggui Beimu Kushen Pills can down-regulate TLR2, TLR4, TLR6, TRAF6 and MyD88 expression of tumor tissue in MFC gastric cancer bearing mice at both mRNA and protein levels to play anti-tumor pharmacology action.
