Abstract: Neurotensin receptor-1 (NTR1), which can stimulate the intracellular cascade signal pathway, belongs to the large superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. NTR1 is related to the occurrence and development of several kinds of diseases. In order to screen the inhibitors for the cancers associated with NTR1 protein, we established a CHO (Chinese hamster ovary) cell line in which human neurotensin receptor-1 was highly expressed. The method is to construct the recombinant plasmid which was lysed with the hNTR1 gene and transfect it into CHO cells. After selected with G418, the cell line was evaluated by Western blotting analysis and calcium flux assays. Through the calcium flux assays on FlexStation 3, we got the EC50 value of neurotensin peptide which is the natural NTR1 agonist, and the IC 50 value of SR48692 which is the known NTR1 antagonist. The established human CHO/NTR1 cell line can be used to study the profile of NTR1 biological activity and further screen of NTR1 antagonists and agonists.

Objective To investigate the effects of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on the expression of tight junction protein occludin in rat lung tissues.Methods Twenty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=10 each): sham operation group (group S) and CPBgroup.The rats underwent 1 h of CPB and were observed 2 h later in group CPB.The lung water content,neutrophil percentage and protein concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were measured.The expression of occludin in lung tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western-blot analysis.The ultrastructure of alveolar epithelial barrier was observed with transmission electron microscope.Results Compared with group S,the lung water content,protein concentration in BALF and neutrophil percentage were significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05),the expression of occludin in lung tissues was significantly down-regulated (P ＜ 0.05) and the damage to alveolar epithelial barrier was aggravated in group CPB.Conclusion The expression of occludin in lung tissues is down-regulated and the damage to alveolar epithelial barrier is induced after CPB,which may be one of the important factors in acute lung injury induced by CPB.

Objective The purpose of this study was to assess the antibacterial effects of hematoporphyrin monomethylether-photodynamic therapy (HMME-PDT) on Enterococcus faecalis within infected simulated lateral canals in vitro with different energy.Methods Simulated lateral canals were prepared on extracted teeth.The specimens were infected with Enterococcus faecalis and then were randomly divided into eight groups.Group A was considered as negative control,its specimens were irrigated with physiological saline.Group B was the positive control,they were irrigated with 5.25％ NaClO.Other groups were incubated with HMME at concentration of 40 μg/ml for 5 min,followed by exposure to light at 532 nm for 120 s with different powers in a spiral pattern.Groups were named C-H,in corresponding with the power 50,60,70,80,90,100 mW.Microbial samples (the dentin chips from simulated lateral canals) were taken before and after the treatments.The survival fractions in each simulated lateral canal was calculated by counting colony-forming units(CFUs).Results 1.The HMME-PDT-treated groups resulted in a significant reduction in the number of E.faecalis in simulated lateral canals compared with the negative controls(P＜0.05).2.The antibacterial effects of group D、E、F、G、H were higher than the NaCl0-irrigated group(P＜0.05).3.The difference of antibacterial effects between the F、G、H groups was in significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion HMME-PDT had significant inhibitive efficacy on Enterococcus faecalis within infected simulated lateral canals and the efficacy was power-depended.It can play the best effect with the power of 80 mW.

Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride on blood-brain barrier in a rat model of cardiopulmonary bypass ( CPB) . Methods Sixty adult male SD rats, aged 4-6 months, weighing 320- 370 g, were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 12 each) : sham operation group (group S), CPB group, and low-, median- and high-dose penehyclidine hydrochloride groups (groups LP, MP and HP). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 10% chloral hydrate 350 mg/kg, intubated and mechanically ventilated. The femoral and jugular arteries and jugular vein were cannulated. CPB was performed for 60 min. Penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.2, 0.6 and 2.0 mg/kg were added to the priming solution in groups LP, MP and HP respectively, while the equal volume of normal saline was added in group CPB. Evans blue was injected via femoral vein at 1 h before the animals were sacrificed. Six rats in each group were sacrificed, their brains immediately removed and the hippocampi isolated for determination of Evans blue content. The other rats were sacrificed and the hippocampi isolated to determine the water content and observe the ultrastructure of blood-brain barrier. Results Compared with group S, the Evans blue content and water content were significantly increased in the other groups ( P ＜ 0.05) . Compared with groups CPB and LP, the Evans blue content and water content were significantly decreased in groups MP and HP ( P ＜ 0.05) . The Evans blue content was significantly lower in group HP than in group MP ( P ＜ 0.05). The CPB-induced changes were significantly attenuated in groups MP and HP compared with groups CPB and LP. Conclusion Penehyclidine hydrochloride can protect blood-brain barrier against the CPB-induced injury and the effect is related to the dose.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of penehyclidine hydrochloride on acute lung injury induced by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in rats.MethodsForty adult male SD rats aged 4-6 months weighing 330-420 g were randomly divided into4 groups ( n =10 each): sham operation group (group S),acute lung injury group (group ALI) and low and high dose of penehyclidine hydrochloride groups (groups PL and PH ).Penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.6 and 2.0 mg/kg were added to the priming solution in groups PL and PH,while the equal volume of normal saline was added in group ALI instead.The rats of groups ALI,PL and PH were underwent 1 h of CPB.Arterial blood samples were collected before CPB and at 2 h after CPB for blood gas analysis.The superior vera cava blood samples and lung tissues were collected at 2 h after CPB for determination of concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6,lung tissue contents of water and malondialdehyde (MDA) and activity of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-px).The pathological change of lung tissue was also examined.ResultsCompared with group S,PaO2 was significantly decreased at 2 h after CPB,plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 and contents of water and MDA in lung tissues were increased,while activity of GSH-px in lung tissues was decreased in groups ALI,PL and PH ( R ＜ 0.05).Compared with group ALI,PaO2 was significantly increased at 2 h after CPB,plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 and contents of water and MDA in lung tissues were decreased,activity of GSH-px in lung tissues was increased (P ＜ 0.05),and the pathological change was reduced in groups PL and PH.Compared with group PL,PaO2 was significantly increased at 2 h after CPB,plasma concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 and contents of water and MDA in lung tissues were decreased,activity of GSH-px in lung tissues was increased ( P ＜0.05),and the pathological change was reduced more obviously in group PH.ConclusionPenehyclidine hydrochloride 0.6 or 2.0 mg/kg can reduce the CPB-induced lung injury in a dose-dependent manner by antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanism in rats.
