Objective To investigate the expression change of P2X3 receptor in spinal dorsal horn and dorsal root ganglion(DRG) in rats with experimental inflammatory pain.Methods Totally 30 SD rats received a subcutaneous injection of carrageenan in the right paw to establish inflammatory pain model,and then divided randomly and equally into 5 groups,that is 6,12,24,72 and 168 h after injection.Another 6 rats undergoing a subcutaneous injection of normal saline in the right paw served as control.Pain threshold was assayed by thermal radiation and von Frey filament in 2,4,6,12,24,72 and 168 h after injection.Expression of P2X3 receptor in spinal dorsal horn and DRG of every group was measured by immunohistochemical staining(IHC).Results After injection of carrageenan,thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia appeared in the rats.The thermal withdrawl latency(TWL) and 50% paw withdrawl threshold(PWT) were decreased obviously from 2 h,descended to the lowest at 12 h,then returned to the normal level after 72 h.The expression of P2X3 receptor in spinal dorsal horn was increased obviously from 24 h,while that at DRG was increased obviously from 12 h.Both of the expressions lasted for 72 h,and returned to the normal level at 168 h after injection.Conclusion Thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia appear in the rats after carrageenan injection,and the P2X3 receptor is activated and up-regulated in the DRG and spinal cord,suggesting that P2X3 receptor may play an important role in the incidence and development of inflammatory pain.

Objective To investigate the localization of Smad2, Smad3, Smad4, and Smad7 proteins and their expression changes in the 5/6 subtotally nephrectomized rat kidney. Methods The rat model of chronic renal failure was established by performing 5/6 subtotally nephrectomy (SNx) and rats in the control group underwent sham-operation. The rats were sacrificed at 4, 8, and 12 week after operation. The sites and levels of expressions of Smad2, Smad3, Smad4, and Smad7 proteins were examined by immunohistochemical staining. Renal fibrosis was assessed by measuring tissue hydroxyproline. Results Immunohistochemical staining indicated that Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4 proteins were mainly expressed in glomeruli and renal tubular cells, while Smad protein 7 was expressed in glomeruli, but rarely in proximal renal tubular cells. Expressions of Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4 proteins in glomeruli were significantly increased during 4-12 weeks after 5/6 nephrectomy, but the expression level of Smad protein 7 was significantly decreased, but accompanied increase of hydroxyproline content in the renal tissues. Conclusion These results indicate that TGF-?/Smad signaling is involved in the progress of chronic glomerulosclerosis. The high level expressions of Smad2, Smad3, and Smad4 proteins and the down-regulation of Smad7 protein may be the major cause of the glomerulosclerosis in this model.

Objective To investigate the effect of noggin on BrdU labeled cells in the adult rat hippocampus. Methods The expressions of noggin and bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) in rat hippocampus were detected using in situ hybridization histochemistry (ISHH) and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR). By using antisense technique combined with bromodeoxyuridine!(BrdU) labeling, the effect of noggin on hippocampal neurogenesis in adult rats was explored. Results The number of noggin mRNA positive cells in the adult rat hippocampus decreased significantly after treatment with antisense noggin but no change was found in the number of BMP4 mRNA positive cells. In addition, the number of BrdU labeled cells decreased significantly in the adult rat hippocampus after treatment with antisense noggin, but the sense noggin had no such effect. Conclusion Noggin can promote proliferation of neural precursor cells in adult rat hippocampus.

Objective To observe the expression changes of noggin mRNA and BMP4 mRNA in the hippocampus and frontal cortex of rats at different stages. Methods The expressions of noggin mRNA and BMP4 mRNA were analyzed by the method of reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT PCR).Results It was revealed that the level of noggin mRNA in the frontal cortex decreased significantly in P1W rats but high level of BMP4 mRNA was detected in P1M and P3M rats. The expressions of noggin mRNA and BMP4 mRNA in the hippocampus showed the opposite expression pattern. The peak of noggin mRNA expression in the hippocampus was found in E13 and E16 rats. The expression of noggin mRNA decreased gradually but that of BMP4 mRNA in hippocampus increased gradually during the developmental stage. The peak of the expression of BMP4 mRNA was found in P1M rats. Conclusion There are expressions of noggin mRNA and BMP4 mRNA in the frontal cortex and hippocampus in rats at different developmental stages. The expression level is closely correlated with the developmental age. This indicates that noggin and BMP4 play important roles in the development of rat frontal cortex and hippocampus.

Objective To detect the changes of visceral sensitivity in rats presenting intestinal dysbacteriosis and the expressions of tight junction protein (ZO-1)and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)so as to explore the effect of intestinal dysbacteriosis on visceral sensitivity and the possible mechanisms.Methods We randomly divided 30 male SD rats of SPF grade into normal control group (n = 12 )and dysbacteriosis group (n = 18 ).Rats in dysbacteriosis group were administered with lincomycin hydrochloride (300 mg/mL),1 mL each time per rat once a day for 7 consecutive days;those in normal control group were fed with the same amount of saline.On the eighth day,six rats were randomly selected from normal control group and dysbacteriosis group respectively to detect whether the model was successful.After the model was successfully constructed,the remaining 12 dysbacteriosis rats were randomly divided into the negative control group and the probiotics intervention group with 6 in each.Rats in the intervention group were given probiotic bifidobacterium triple viable capsules (Bifico)orally,one capsule with 1/3 mL of saline,1 mL each time per rat once a day for 7 consecutive days;those in the negative control group received the same amount of saline.On the eighth day,fresh feces was cultured for flora to detect visceral sensitivity by abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR),the mRNA and protein expressions of ZO-1 and TLR4 in the colon,and the expression of serum inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and TNFα.Results The expression of ZO-1 in the colon was significantly lower in the rats of dysbacteriosis group than those in the control group,and the expression of TLR4 was also significantly increased.Correspondingly,the expression of pro-inflammatory factor TNFα in the serum of the rats in dysbacteriosis group was significantly increased,while that of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was significantly lower than in the control group (P <0.05).Furthermore,compared with dysbacteriosis group,the expression of ZO-1 was increased significantly and TLR4 was decreased in probiotics group in varying degrees. Similarly,the expression of TNFα was obviously lower while that of IL-10 in the serum was higher (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion Inhibiting the expression of ZO-1 and increasing the expression of TLR4,thus leading to chronic low-grade inflammation, may be one mechanism of visceral hypersensitivity caused by intestinal dysbacteriosis. Probiotics may restore the dysbacteriosis and thus improve visceral hypersensitivity.

ObjectiveTo evaluate nipple-areola complex sparing modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.MethodsClinical data of 159 breast cancer cases undergoing NAC sparing modified radical mastectomy from Jan 1998 to Dec 2009 were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsNAC sparing modified radical mastectomy was successfully carried out in 141 out of the 159 cases ( 88.68％ ).In 14 cases (8. 81％ ) the original operative protocol was changed to modified radical mastectomy or radical mastectomy during the operations because NAC ischemia in 4 (2. 52％ )cases, NAC occult involvement or dysplasia in 5 cases (3. 14％ ), Ⅲ level lymph node metastasis was found in 3 cases (1.89％). Postoperative complete nipple necrosis occurred in 4 (2. 52％ ) cases. Other significant postoperative complications included nipple necrosis in 20 cases ( 12. 58％ ), skin flap necrosis and infection in 11 cases ( 6.92％ ), subcutaneous hydrops in 10 cases (6. 29％ ). All patients got follow-up ranging from 15 to 96 months,median follow-up was 51 months. Local region recurrences were observed in 5 cases (3. 14％ ), distant metastasis in 2 cases ( 1.26％ ). There was no recurrence in the region of NAC.ConclusionsNipple-areola complex sparing modified radical mastectomy is oncologically safe by strict preoperative selection criteria and strict operative procedure.

Objective To compare the effect of water-infusion colonoscopy and conventional air-infusion colonoscopy on the bowel cleanliness during withdrawing.Methods A single blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. 222 patients were randomly divided into water-infusion group (group A, 112 cases) and air-infusion group (group B, 110 cases). The cleanliness scores, scores improvement, pain scores, time of reaching cecum, depth of colonoscopy, rate of whole colon examination, adenoma detection rate (ADR), operator’s dififculty and complications were compared between the two groups.Results The cleanliness score during withdrawing was higher in group A [M(8)/IQR(1) vs M(8)/IQR(2),P = 0.000], the improvement was higher in group A [(0.53 ± 0.74) vs (0.23 ± 0.55), P = 0.000], the abdominal pain score was signiifcantly lower in group A [M(2)/IQR(1) vs M(4)/IQR(2),P = 0.000] and the ADR was higher in group A (36.61 % vs 23.64 %,P = 0.041). The operator’s dififculty evaluation score was signiifcantly lower in group A [M(1)/IQR(1) vs M(2)/IQR(1),P = 0.005]. There were no signiifcant differences at the time of reaching cecum, the depth of colonoscopy and the whole colon examination rate between the two groups.Conclusion Water-infusion colonoscopy could signiifcantly improve the bowel cleanliness during withdrawing scope, improve the ADR and reduce abdominal pain of patients, without increasing the time to reach cecum.
