Objective To test the effects of restuscitation with air or oxygen on the blood gas and cerebral superoxide dismutase (SOD) concentration in neonatal rats with experimental intrauterine asphyxia. Method Seventy-seven neonatal rats were randomly (random number) divided into three experimental groups: sham operation group (SHAM), air resuscitation group (AR), and oxygen resuscitation group (OR). In groups AR and OR, animal models of intrauterine asphyxia were established and then resuscitated with air (AR) or oxygen (OR) for 30min. Comparison was made between groups including the mortality 0 hour after resuscitation, and the levels of blood gas and cerebral SOD concentrations 0 h, 6 h and 24 h after resuscitation. Results Mortality of neonatal rats in SHAM group, AR group and OR group were 0 (0/24), 0 (0/26) and 3.7% (1/27), respectively (P >0.05). The average levels of blood PaO2 in OR group and AR group 0 h after resuscitation were (69.2 ± 8.2)mmHg and (55.5±10.3) mmHg,respectively (P=0.004). Blood pH and PaCO2 and BE levels in OR group 0 h after resuscitation were not significantly different from those in AR group (P>0.05). Blood pH, PO2, PCO2and BE levels in OR group were also not significantly different from those in AR group 6 h and 24 hours after resuscitation. The average concentrations of cerebral SOD in OR group 0 h and 6 hours after resucitation were (38.3±9.8) U/mgprot and (8.6±3.6) U/mgprot, and those in AR group were (53.8± 10.6) U/mgprot and (13.0±4.6) U/mgprot, respectively (P = 0.003, 0.04). The cerebral SOD concentration in OR group 24 hours after resuscitation was not significantly different from that in AR group (P>0.05). The cerebral SOD concentrations in SHAM group 0 h,6 h and 24 hours after resuscitation were much higher than those in OR group and AR group (P<0.05). Conclusions Resuscitation with air is as good as pure oxygen in neonatal resuscitation, in respect of early mortality and improvement of acidosis in neonatal rats after intrauterine asphyxia. Resuscitation with air will generate less radical oxygen species than pure oxygen in neonatal rats after intrauterine asphyxia.

[Objective] To explore the in-vitro determination method for the recovery rate of sinomenine in microdialysis probe and to investigate the influencing factors. [Methods] The recovery rate of sinomenine was detected by concentration difference method (by gain and by loss) and zero-net flux method. [Results] The recovery rate detected by increment method was as the same as that by decrement method; the recovery rate had no correlation with the sinomenine concentration in the solvent. Sinomenine recovery assessed by concentration difference method had a good intra-day stability and intra-day reproducibility. Sinomenine concentration and recovery in the solvent could be determined accurately by zero-net flux method. [ Conclusion ] Microdialysis sampling can be used for the pharmacokinetic study of sinomenine and decrement method (ie. retrodialysis) can be used for the determination of recovery rate of sinomenine.

Objective To explore the effect of autophagy regulator on the injury of rat hippocampal neurons induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD).Methods Rat hippocampal neurons were cultivated in primary and subjected to OGD to simulate neuronal hypoxic ischemia injury for 2 hours or 6 hours followed by reperfusion for 12 hours with or without 3-methyladenine (3-MA, 20μmol/L) or rapamycin (0.2μmol/L). The morphology of neurons was observed with optical microscope. The expression of autophagy-related protein (LC3, P62) and apoptosis-related protein (cleaved caspase-3) were assessed by Western Blot analysis. The apoptosis of neurons was detected by flow cytometry, the release rate of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was calculated by automatic biochemical analyzer, and the cell activity was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric assay.Results Compared with the control group, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 3.091±0.160, 3.422±0.186 vs. 0.256±0.021), cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 0.230±0.025, 0.440±0.051 vs. 0.050±0.007), neuronal apoptotic rate, LDH release rate [(38.50±4.15)%, (59.60±5.65)% vs. (12.40±1.32)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.290±0.025,0.120±0.026 vs. 0.450±0.040), neuronal activity [(71.40±7.23)%, (42.80±4.12)% vs. (100.30±2.30)%] were decreased at 2 hours or 6 hours after OGD (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 2 hours and it was combined with 3-MA, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 2.281±0.121), the neuronal activity [(51.10±5.73)%] were decreased, while the expression of P62 and cleaved caspase-3 (gray scale: 0.410±0.037, 0.330±0.027, respectively), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (47.30±4.43)%] were increased (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 2 hours and it was combined with rapamycin, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ (gray value: 3.689±0.214), the neuronal activity [(85.30±8.56)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 0.170±0.040, 0.090±0.096, respectively), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (24.30±2.14)%] were decreased (allP < 0.05). On the contrary, when the time of OGD was 6 hours and it was combined with 3-MA, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 3.021±0.178, 0.240±0.017), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate: (36.60±3.45)%] were decreased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.350±0.060), the neuronal activity [(59.70±6.13)%] were increased (allP < 0.05). When the time of OGD was 6 hours and it was combined with rapamycin, the expression of LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ and cleaved caspase-3 (gray value: 3.923±0.201, 0.590±0.062), neuronal apoptotic rate, the injury of neurons [LDH release rate:(71.20±7.81)%] were increased, while the expression of P62 (gray value: 0.070±0.008), the neuronal activity [(27.30±2.12)%] were decreased (allP < 0.05).Conclusion The enhancement of autophagy has protective effect on neurons under the condition of mild OGD, while it can aggravate the injury of neurons induced by a long-time OGD.

Genetic bistable systems are a large class of important biological systems. Bistability, the capacity to achieve two distinct stable steady states in response to a set of external stimuli, arises within biological systems ranging from the ? phage switch in bacteria to cellular signal transduction pathways in mammalian cells. On the other hand, the increasing experimental evidence in the form of bimodal population distribution has indicated that noise plays a very key role in the switching of bistable systems. However, the physiological mechanism underling noise-induced switching behaviors has not been well explored yet. In the previous work, it has been showed that noise can induce coherent switch for a single genetic Toggle switch system. Here the influence of several kinds of noises (including intracellular and extracellular noises) on synchronized switch was investigated for a multicell gene toggle switch network system. It has been found that multiplicative noises resulting from fluctuations of either synthesis or degradation rates and the additive noise within each cell (they altogether are called as intracellular noises) all can induce the synchronized switch, and that there exists an optimal noise intensity such that the synchronized switch is optimally achieved and the amplification factor has the maximal value. On the other hand, the extracellular noises arising from the stochastic fluctuation of the cellular environment, not only brings about the synchronized switch, but also enhances it by suppressing intracellular fluctuations when the intracellular noises are not enough to induce the synchronized switch. Finally, the influence of the diffusive rate of signal molecules affected by noise on the dynamics of the multicellular system was also investigated, showing that the larger the diffusive rate, the better the synchronized switch and the larger the amplification factor.
