Objective:To study the anti-depression mechanism of Shugan Jiannao Tiaoyu Tablets(SJTT) and provide evidene for clinical application. Methods: Depressive rat model were established by unpredictable stress with raising alone. Model rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, each 12, then each group was administrated through intragastric perfusion daily with the rate of 1.0ml/100g according to their weight before stimulation: fluoxetine group with 0.75 mg/kg, low-dose group of SJTT with 1.8g/kg, high-dose group of SJTT with 3.6g/kg, normal group and model group with 1.0ml/100g of isotonic Na chloride. The whole course lasted for 21 days from the first day of model making to the day of death. The pathologic character of hippocampus was observed by light microscopic examination. The change of cell ultramicrostructure was observed by transmission electron microscope. The expression of C-FOS and C-JUN were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results: SJTT could reduce the neuron damage of hippocam. Compared with model group, the gray scale of immunoreaction positve cells of C-FOS and C-JUN increased in high dose group of SJTT. Conclusion:SJTT can decrease the neuron damage induced by stress in hippacam and had anti-depression effect.

Objective To evaluate the mechanism of immunosuppressive activity of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 and provide a theoretical basis for clinical use. Methods Different inbred strain male BALB/C (H-2d) and male C57BL/6(H-2b) mice were used as skin transplantation donors and recipients, respectively. After operation C57BL/6 mice were conditioned with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 2.5 ??g/kg every day, Cyclosporine A (CsA) po 25 mg/kg every day separately or unitedly. Ten days after transplantation, the recipients were sacrificed, and the spleens were collected. The mouse splenic T lymphocytic subsets, mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR), the activity of natural killer (NK) cells were determined. Results The mean survival time (MST) of skin allografts was prolonged from ( 9.75 ? 0.89 ) days to ( 13.13 ? 1.13 ) days by treatment of the recipient mice with 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3. CD3 + and CD4 + subset percentage in 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D_3 group was lower than that in control group CD3 + ( 40.19 ? 4.25 )% vs ( 48.70 ? 7.19 )%, P

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of magnesium on calcification induced by hyperphosphate.Methods Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were primarily cultured in vitro and induced calcification by β-glycerophosphate (β-GP).VSMCs were randomly divided into control group,high phosphorus group (10 mmol/L β-GP),magnesium intervèntion group(10 mmol/L β-GP + 3 mmol/L MgSO4) and 2-aminoethoxy-diphenylborate (2-APB,an inhibitor of magnesium transporter) intervention group(10 mmol/L β-GP+3 mmol/L MgSO4+ 10-4 mol/L 2-APB).Calcium deposition and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity were measured by alizarin red staining,quantification of calcium and euzyme linked immunosorbent assay.RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to observe the expression of core binding factor α-1 (Cbfα-1) mRNA and protein,respectively.In vivo,male Sprague-Dawley rats (n=24) were randomly divided into control group (methylcellulose+high phosphorous diet),vascular calcification group (adenine suspension + high phosphorous diet),high magnesium intervention group(adenine suspension+high phosphorous and magnesium diet).The aortic pulse wave velocity (PWV) was measured,and vascular calcification was determined by von Kossa stain and quantification of calcium.Cbfα-1 in aortic was measured by immunohistochemistry.Results In vitro,compared with high phosphorus group,calcification,ALP activity (P ＜ 0.05) and Cbfα-1expression in VSMCs were significantly decreased in magnesium intervention group after incubation for 14 days,but the addition of 2-APB might inhibit the protective effect of magnesium on VSMCs.Dynamic observation of Cbfα-1 showed that magnesium significantly inhibited the expression of Cbfα-1 (P ＜ 0.05) on the third day and the inhibitory role was obviously increased in a time-dependent manner.Consistent with the findings in vitro,the aortic PWV,calcification were all significantly reduced (P ＜ 0.05) in high magnesium intervention group with high serum magnesium level,when compared with vascular calcification group.Immunohistochemistry showed that hypermagnesemia downregulated obviously the expression of Cbfα-1 induced by hyperphosphatemia(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Magnesium protects against vascular calcification by inhibiting osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs.

Objective To explore the effect of vitamin K2 on β-glycerophosphate(β-GP)-induced rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) calcification and and the mechanism.Methods VSMCs were obtained from rat aortic,and identified by immunocytochemistry,then randomly divided into control group,high phosphorus group,vitamin K2 group (the group was settled three subgroups according to the concentration of vitamin K2 based on the high phosphorus medium,namely 10 μmol/L,25 μmol/L,50 μmol/L) and noggin (bone morphogenetic protein pathway inhibitor) group.Calcification was visualized by Alizarin red staining,calcium load in cells was quantified by o-cresolphthalein complexone method and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity was measured after stimulating 14 days,gene expressions of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2),SMAD1,SMAD7 and Runx2 mRNA were detected by RT-PCR,Runx2 protein levels was detected by Western blotting after stimulating 3 days.Results Compared with the cells in control group,high phosphorus induced cell calcification,increased ALP activity,up-regulated the expression of BMP-2,SMAD1,Runx2 mRNA (P ＜ 0.05) and down-regulated the expression of SMAD7 (P ＜ 0.01),while compared with high phosphorus group,the calcium deposition,ALP activity and the expression of BMP-2,SMAD1,Runx2 mRNA were remarkably reduced in a dose-dependent manner by treatment with vitamin K2 (P ＜ 0.05) and the expression of SMAD7 was increased (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with high phosphorus group,SMAD1 and Runx2 expression in noggin group were remarkably reduced(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Vitamin K2 inhibits β-glycerophosphate-induced VSMCs calcification which correlates with the suppression of the expression of osteoblast markers through the down-regulation of bone morphogenetic protein pathway.

Objective To explore the effects of the different concentrations of magnesium ions on vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) calcification in rats. Methods VSMCs were obtained from rat aortic, and were identified by immunocy-tochemistry. VSMCs were then randomly divided into control group, high phosphorus group and magnesium intervention group. VSMCs were cultured with 10%fetal bovine serum in control group. VSMCs were cultured with high phosphorus in high phosphorus group. VSMCs were cultured with different concentrations of magnesium chloride based on the high phos-phorus medium in magnesium intervention group (final concentrations of magnesium ions were 1, 2 and 3 mmol/L). The calci-um content and alkaline phosphatase(ALP)activity were measured after the stimulation for 7 days. The expression of Cbfα1 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. Results Compared with control group, calcium deposits were found significantly higher in high phosphorus group and magnesium intervention group. The calcified nodules gradually reduced with the increased magnesium ion concentration in the intervention group. The calcium contents were significantly lower in the intervention groups (2 and 3 mmol/L) compared with those of high phosphorus group (P<0.05), but no difference was found between 1 mmol/L magnesium intervention group and high phosphorus group. There were no significant differences in the ALP activity and Cbfα1 mRNA expression between intervention groups (2 and 3 mmol/L) and control group (P<0.05). The ALP activity and the expression of Cbfα1 mRNA were gradually decreased with the increased magnesium ion concentration in the inter-vention group, and which were lower than those of high phosphorus group (P<0.05). Conclusion Magnesium can reduce calcification and osteoblastic transdifferentiation, which may be achieved by reducing the expression of Cbfα1 in VSMCs.

Objective To understand the risk factors of neurogenic pulmonary edema in the patients with severe hand foot and mouth disease(HFMD). Methods According to neurogenic pulmonary edema or not ,79 patients with severe HFMD were divided into two groups. The difference was analyzed on the clinical symptoms, signs,the outcomes of laboratory and electroencephalogram (EEG) examination between the two groups. Then the risk factors of neurogenic pulmonary edema was analyzed by logistic regression analysis.Results There were significant differences of the EV71 infection rate,high body temperature,myoclonia,limb weakness,the disability of eyeball regulation,tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension, the extension of capillary filling time, leucocytosist, creatine kinase isoenzyme, hyperglycaemia between two groups. However, there were no significant differences of fever, fever time, vomiting, somnolence, convulsion, limb tremor, c-reactive protein and EEG between two groups. Tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension, hyperglycaemia were significant risk factors for neurogenic pulmonary edema by logistic regression analysis. And hyperglycaemia was the most significant prognostic factor(odd ratio 27. 075, P = 0. 000 2). Conclusion Tachycardia, hypertension or hypotension,hyperglycaemia are the significant risk factors for neurogenic pulmonary edema. It is especially important for hyperglycaemia to predict neurogenic pulmonary edema.

Objective To analyze the failure rate and failure factors related to ventilator weaning off in children. Methods Clinical data of 214 patients who received mechanical ventilation in pediatric intensive care unit of Tianjin Children's Hospital from Jan 2005 to Dec 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 141 planned extubation events,122 of which were successful and 19 of which were unsuccessful.The failure rate of planned extubation was 13.5%. The failure rate of infants less than 6 months was higher than that of infants more than 6 months, but there was no significant difference ( 15.0% vs 9. 8%, P ＞0.05). The success rate of extubation in pneumonia cases (90. 7% )was higher than that in others (P ＜0. 05 ). The duration of mechanical ventilation had no effect on success rate of extubation ( (7. 64 ± 5.68 ) d vs (6. 95 ± 3. 14) d, P ＞ 0. 05 ). The duration of corticosteroid treatment after extubation in the successful group was less than that in the failure group ( ( 12. 35 ±9. 69) h vs ( 18.63 ± 12. 17) h,P ＜0. 05). According to the result of multiple linear regression analysis ( R2 = 0. 093), airway obstruction was the high risk factor of the extubation failure( F = 14. 256, P ＜ 0. 001 ). Conclusion Currently,weaning from mechanical ventilation in PICU depends on the combination of pediatricians' experience and objective indicators. The key point for improving the success rate of exubation is that we should explore reasonable and feasible extubation protocol and discover and exclude the related factors of exubation failure as earlier as possible.
