1.Effects of peroxynitrite on the endothelial cells
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1989;0(05):-
A Review] Endothelial cells produce both superoxide and nitric oxide. Nitric oxide and superox- ide are known to react rapidly to form the stable peroxynitrite anion. Peroxynitrite mediates the oxidation of protein, lipid, deoxyribose and inhibits mitochondrial electron transport. Peroxynitrite may break DNA strands and activate poly(ADP - ribose) syntheatase. If the reaction is excessive, it results in a depletion of intracelular NAD+ and ATP. There is ultimately cell death.

Objective To explore the preliminary construction of nursing care quality index based on the characteristics of ophthalmic nursing. Methods Through literature review and experts′discussion, the preliminary construction of nursing care quality index were designed. The Delphi method was used to revise the indicators. Results After two rounds of Delphi procedure, the opinion of the experts became consistent. Questionnaire collecting rates of the two rounds were both 100%, and cooperation index were 0.236 and 0.292 respectively (P<0.01), two first level quality indicators were confirmed, namely ophthalmic care operations (five second level indicators) and health education (four second level indicators). Conclusion The ophthalmic nursing care quality indicators were scientific, reliable and feasible, which could provide objective and quantified basis for the management of nursing care quality.

Objective To observe the effect of unilateral ureter obstruction(UUO) on the expression of complement 5a receptor(C5aR) in rat renal tissue,and to investigate the roles played by C5aR in the development of renal intersititial fibrosis.Methods Thirty six male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned into two groups(18 each): sham-operated group and UUO group.The left ureter of the rats in UUO group was obstructed,while in sham-operated group the left ureter was not.Six rats in each group were executed respectively on the 5th,10th and 15th day after surgery.Histological changes in renal tubular interstitium were observed with H.E.and Masson staining,and the expression of C5aR in renal tissues was detected by iminunohistochemical ELiVisionTM plus at each time point.Results Renal tubular dilatation and partial interstitial cells degeneration were found in UUO group on the 5th day after surgery.Necrosis of the interstitial cells was found in renal tubule,and the interstitial fibrosis was found on the 10th day.On the 15th day after surgery diffuse thickening and shrinkage of renal tubular basement membrane and obvious fibrosis were found(P0.05).Conclusion The C5aR expression in renal tissue increases significantly at the early stage of UUO,while the process is slowed down in the later stage.C5aR may take part in the process of renal intersititial fibrosis at the early stage.

Objective To study 18F-deoxyglucose-positron emission tomography and CT fusion (FDG PET) in three dimensional conformal radiotherapy for non-small -c ell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Methods Gross tumor volume (GTV) of 13 NSCLC patient s were determined by FDG PET and CT separately (GTV PET-CT and GTV CT ), which were then compared. Results Except 2 patients, all the other patients' GTV PET-CT dif fered from their GTV CT. Compared with GTV CT, GTV PET-CT was in creased by an avera ge of 29.2?cm3 in 5 patients and decreased by an average of 41.6?cm3 in 6 patien ts. Conclusions 18F-deoxyglucose-positron emission tomography, which can improve target definition between benign and malignant lesions in the lung, is proved t o be more sensitive and specific in detecting mediastinal lymph node involvement . FDG PET may provide accurate target definition and improve the local control.

Malignant tracheoesophageal fistula (MTEF) is pathological communication between the respiratory tracts such as the trachea or bronchia and the esophagus because of malignant tumor dissemination through them.Radiography is an important adjunctive technology in the diagnosis of MTEF,and the location and size of fistula often need the further diagnosis of bronchoscopy and esophagoscopy.The patients are often with an unfavourable prognosis once developed MTEF,and are treated usually with the aim of symptom palliation and life quality improvement.The individual treatment includes esophageal stenting,esophageal exclusion and esophagus bypass,fistula exclusion and repair,radiotherapy and others effective therapy according to the patients condition.These therapies will prolong the life span and improve the life quality of patients.MTEF is not absolute contraindication for chemoradiotherapy.Despite its acute toxicity,this concurrent chemoradiothe rapy protocol appears feasible and effective at closing esophageal malignant fistula,especially in patients in a good general condition and without metastasis.

AIM: To investigate the effect of compound rhubarb preparation (Kintop) in preventing obesity in rats and its probable mechanism involved. METHODS: Twenty-six newborn SD rats were randomly grouped as rhubarb preparation plus high-energy forage group( n= 8), high-energy forage control group( n= 8) and ordinary forage control group( n= 10). The rats in rhubarb preparation plus high-energy forage group and high-energy forage control group were fed with high-energy forage and those in ordinary forage control group were fed with ordinary forage. The rats in rhubarb preparation plus high-energy forage group were administered by compound rhubarb preparation (40 mg?100 g -1 body weight?d -1 ) from 9th to 17th week. The dynamic changes in body weight, celiac fat weight and adipocytes size were measured. Immunohistochemical analysis of leptin in celiac adipocytes (ABC method) and measurement of serum leptin level (RID method) were performed. RESULTS: The body weight and the wet weights of celiac fat were lower, their adipocytes were smaller and immunohistochemical stainings of leptin were weaker in rhubarb preparation plus high-energy forage group than those in high-energy forage control group. There was an obvious positive correlation between the expression of leptin and celiac fat tissue weight( r= 0.8663, P

Objective To compare the survival effects between using electron beams (EB) and modulated X-ray beams (XB) for boosting irradiation in breast cancer patients after breast-conserving surgery and postoperative radiotherapy.Methods This study retrospectively included 485 breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery at Beijing Cancer Hospital.All patients underwent either EB or XB for tumor bed boost irradiation (10-16 Gy/5-8 fractions) after whole-breast irradiation of 46-50 Gy/23-25 fractions.Results Median follow-up time for the cohort was 96.04 months.Statistically significant increase of local recurrence free Survival (LRFS) was observed in XB group than in EB group.The 5-year and 10-year LRFS was both 98.4% in XB group,as well as 94.2% and 93.2% in EB group,respectively (x2 =4.190,P < 0.05).But there was not statistically significant difference in 5-year and 10-year overall survival (OS) between XB group(96.7% and 95.8%) and EB group(94.9% and 89.4%),respectively (P > 0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that LRFS was significantly correlated with age≤40,positive pathological lymph nodes and positive expression of Her-2 receptor.But boost irradiation method was not independent prognostic factor for LRFS and OS (P > 0.05).Conclusions For cancer patients treated with breast-conserving surgery and whole-breast postoperative radiation followed by a boost irradiation to tumor bed,XB irradiation was superior to EB irradiation in term of LRFS,yet no difference of OS was observed in both groups.

AIM:To investigate the role of nuclear factor ?B (NF ?B) in the induction of iNOS gene by TNF? and LPS in endothelial cells and the effect of antioxidant on the induction of iNOS. METHODS:Nitrite was determined based on Griess reaction. iNOS mRNA was analyzed using Northern blot. NF ?B in the cell nucleole was detected with electrophoretic mobility shift assay.RESULTS:(1)NO production and iNOS mRNA expression induced by LPS and TNF? was blocked by pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC) or N-acetylcysteine(NAC). (2)LPS and TNF? triggered the activation and translocation of NF ?B, and PDTC or NAC inhibited the activation of NF ?B induced by LPS and TNF?.CONCLUSIONS:(1)The induction of iNOS gene by TNF? and LPS is dependent on the activation of NF ?B.(2)Antioxidants may inhibit the induction of iNOS gene through the inhibition of NF ?B activation.
