Military Medical Sciences 2015;(1):12-17
Objective To establish a quick method to probe the environmental estrogen-like compounds via fluorescent imaging analysis in high content analysis (HCA) technology.Methods HCA assays were performed to quantitatively in-vestigate the effect of collected environmental pollutants , including bisphenol A , nonylphenol , 1,2-phenylenediamine , 4-aminophenol, resorcinol, 3-aminophenol, 1,4-phenylenediamine and 2,5-diaminotoluene on nuclear granules formation ( Foci-formation) of estrogen receptor α( ERα)-EGFR( enhanced green fluorescent protein ) fusion-protein, which was se-lected as a research model in this study .The results were confirmed by the ERαtranscriptional activity by luciferase as-says.Results Compounds 1,2-phenylenediamine, 4-aminophenol, resorcinol, 3-aminophenol, 1,4-phenylenediamine and 2,5-diaminotoluene sulfate could not induce the ERα-EGFR nuclear granule formation.17-β-Estradiol, bisphenol A, or nonylphenol enhanced ERα-EGFR nuclear granule formation in a dose-dependent manner .The EC50 value was (4.17 ± 0.41) nmol/L, (1.48 ±1.79) μmol/L,or (3.70 ±0.78) μmol/L, respectively.The minimum detectable concentration was 1 nmol/L (17-β-estradiol)and 300 nmol/L (bisphenol A, nonylphenol).In luciferase tests, 17-β-estradiol, bisphe-nol A, or nonylphenol increased ERαtranscriptional activity in a dose-dependent manner ,and the EC50 value was (4.46 ±0.56) nmol/L, (2.31 ±0.21) μmol/L, or (6.60 ±0.94) μmol/L, respectively.The minimum detectable concentration was 3 nmol/L (17-β-estradiol), 300 nmol/L (bisphenol A),and 1 μmol/L (nonylphenol).Conclusion As an efficient method for ERαagonist identification , HCA assays based on the cell image phenotypes analysis can be used in quick recog -nition of environmental compounds with ER agonist-like activity.In all experimental compounds , only bisphenol A and non-ylphenol have a clear ER agonist-like activity .

Objective To study the efficacy and safety of intravenous and intra-arterial thrombolytic therapy in acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods 65 patients with ACI were randomly divided in two groups:intra-arterial thrombolytic group (n=21) were intra-arterially administed with 250 000-500 000 units urokinase through femoral artery and intravenous thrombolytic group (n=44) were intravenously administed with 1.5 million units urokinase.Before and after treating, their neurological deficit scales were evaluated. The thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT) and fibrinogen were detected before and after thrombolysis 6 h,3 d and 7 d.The CT scan was rechecked after thrombolysis 24 h.Results (1)ESS scales were higher in the intra-arterial infusion group than those in the intravenous infusion group at 2h, 6h, 24h, and 3d (all P

Objective To study the protective effect of Xinfuli Granula(XG) on acute and chronic cardiac failure in cats and rats. Methods The cat models of acute cardiac failure were established by injecting pentobarbital. Then the cat models were given XG through duodenum. After medication,hemodynamics parameters such as heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),left ventricular systolic pressure(LVSP),left ventricular end-diastolic pressure(LVEDP),+ dp/dtmax and cardiac output(CO) in cats were determined. The rats were divided randomly into 5 groups:the control group,the model group,the positive control group,and high-dose and Low-dose XG groups. The rat models of myocardial injury were induced by isoproterenol(20 mg/kg). The normal group and the model group were treated with normal saline(10 mL/kg) orally,the positive contral group were treated with cedilanid(0.2 mg/kg) by intravenous,the high-and low-dose XG groups were orally treated with XG(10 g/kg and 5 g/kg respectively),and the propranolol group was orally treated with propranolol(4 mg/kg),once a day for successive 8 days. Animals were sacrificed on the 9th day,then the heart was taken out and the cardiac index was calculated. The pathological changes in myocardial cells of the rats were observed under electron microscope. Results XG had no effect on hemodynamics of cats with acute cardiac failure,but had obvious protective and therapeutic effect on isoproterenol-inducedmyocardial injury and myocardial ischemia of rats. Conclusion Xinfuli Granula has good preventive effect on isoproterenol-induced myocardial injury and sub-acute cardiac failure of rats,but has no effect on acute cardiac failure of cats.
