OBJECTIVETo study the changes in the expression of divalent metal transporter 1 (DMT1) and ferroportin 1 (FP1) in the substantia nigra (SN) of rats with manganese-induced parkinsonism.

METHODSEighty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups. Rats in the control group were injected intraperitoneally with saline solution. Rats in the low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose groups were injected intraperitoneally with 5, 15, and 20 mg/kg MnC12 solution, respectively, for 16 weeks. Three behavioral tests were performed at the 16th week. The concentration of Mn2+ in the SN was determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES), and the positive expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) was measured by immunohistochemical staining to determine whether rats with manganese-induced parkinsonism were successfully produced. The expression of DMT1 and FP1 in SN was measured by immunohistochemical staining and fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction.

RESULTSRats with manganese-induced parkinsonism were successfully produced using the above method. Compared with that in the control group, the concentrations of Mn2+ in the SN of rats exposed to 5, 15, and 20 mg/kg Mn2+ were significantly higher (1.72?0.33 vs 0.56 ± 0.20 µg/g, P<0.01; 2.92±0.77 vs 0.56±0.20 µg/g, P<0.01; 5.65±1.60 vs 0.56±0.20 µg/g, P<0.01). The mean ODs of TH-positive cells in the SN of rats exposed to 5, 15, and 20 mg/kg Mn+ were significantly lower than that in the control group (0.054±0.008 vs 0.109±0.019, P<0.01; 0.016±0.004 vs 0.109±0.019, P<0.01; 0.003±0.001 vs 0.109±0.019, P<0.01). Compared with that in the control group, the mean optical densities (ODs) of DMT1-positive cells in the SN of rats exposed to 15, and 20 mg/kg Mn2+ were significantly higher (0.062±0.004 vs 0.015±0.007, P<0.01; 0.116±0.064 vs 0.015±0.007, P<0.01). The mean ODs of FP1-positive cells in the SN of rats exposed to 5, 15, and 20 mg/kg Mn2+ were significantly lower than that in the control group (0.092±0.011 vs 0.306±0.081, P<0.01; 0.048±0.008 vs 0.306±0.081, P<0.01; 0.008±0.002 vs 0.306±0.081, P< 0.01). Rats exposed to 15 and 20 mg/kg Mn2+ had significantly higher expression of DMT1 mRNA in the SN than those in the control group (0.052±0.0126 vs 0.001±0.0004, P<0.05; 0.124±0.0299 vs 0.001±0.0004, P<0.05). However, rats exposed to 5, 15, and 20 mg/kg Mn2 had significantly lower expression of FP1 mRNA in the SN than those in the control group (0.059±0.0076 vs 0.162±0.0463, P<0.05; 0.033±0.0094 vs 0.162±0.0463, P< 0.05; 0.002±0.0007 vs 0.162±0.0463, P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe increased expression of DMT1 and reduced expression of FP1 may be involved in the processes of Mn2+ accumulation in the SN and dopaminergic neuron loss in rats with manganese-induced parkinsonism.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effects of halofuginone on radiation-induced pulmonary injury and to explore the therapeutic mechanism of this drug. Methods:A total of 72 healthy female C57BL/6 mice were randomized into 4 groups, namely, control, irradiation, halofuginone, and irradiation plus halofuginone groups, with 18 mice in each group. No treatment was performed in the control group. In the halofuginone group, the halofuginone lavage was conducted once a day, with a continuous course treatment for a month or until sacrifice of the mice. In the therapeutic alliance group, the treatment mode was the same as that in the halofuginone group. Then, a 6MV-X ray single fraction irradiation was performed after the completion of a 15-day intragastric administration. At 24 h, 1 week, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 20 weeks after the irradiation, 3 mice from each group were randomly sacrificed, and total lung tissues were harvested. The lung was dissected to prepare pathological sections. The sections were stained with hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E) to explore morphologic changes. The protein and mRNA expression levels of TGF-β1 were analyzed by a combi-nation of immunohistochemistry and polymerase chain reaction. The level of hydroxyproline was also measured. Results: The out-comes of H&E staining showed that halofuginone markedly ameliorated the acute pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis induced by irra-diation. The combination group had a lower level of hydroxyproline than the irradiation group, with statistically significant differences at 20 weeks after irradiation (P=0.037). The protein and mRNA expression levels of TGF-β1 were higher in the irradiation and combi-nation groups than in the control group and (or) halofuginone group at different time points (P<0.05). The combination group had lower TGF-β1 protein expression than the irradiation group at different time points, with statistically significant differences at 2, 4, 12, and 20 weeks after the irradiation (P<0.05). Meanwhile, TGF-β1 mRNA level was lower in the combination group than in the irradiation group only at 4 and 12 weeks after the irradiation (P<0.05). Conclusion:Halofuginone can ameliorate the irradiation-induced lung inflamma-tion and fibrosis probably by inhibiting the radiation-induced TGF-β1 expression. Therefore, halofugione is expected to be a therapeu-tic drug for preventing irradiation injury of the lung.

OBJECTIVETo study retrospectively the clinical efficacy on pediatric recurrent pneumonia treated with point application in summer for the prevention in winter, as well as the relationship of age, sick duration, attack frequency and skin reaction with the clinical efficacy.

METHODSOne hundred and thirty-five cases of pediatric recurrent pneumonia were divided into a one-year group, a two-year group and a three-year group, 45 cases in each one according to the duration of treatment. The acupoints for the application were Dingchuan (EX-B1), Feishu (BL 13), Gaohuang (BL 43) and Danzhong (CV 17) with the same herbal plaster (prepared with rhizome corydalis, semen brassicae, euphorbia kansui and asarum sieboldii at the ratio of 2:2:1:1) on the first day of each of the three periods of the hot season, 2 to 4 h in each treatment. The attack frequency and change rate were observed before and after treatment in the three groups. The clinical efficacy was assessed in the three groups.

RESULTS(1) After treatment, the attack frequency of pediatric pneumonia was reduced apparently in the three groups (all P < 0.01). The result in the three-year group was less than that in the one-year group and the two-year group and the change rate was the highest (all P < 0.01). (2) After treatment, the sick duration was shortened apparently in the three groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The result in the three-year group was the most remarkable, statistically and significantly different as compared with the other two groups (both P < 0.01). (3) The total effective rate in the three-year group was better than that in either of the other two groups [84.4% (35/45) vs 51.1% (23/45, P < 0.01), 84.4% (35/45) vs 71.1% (32/45, P < 0.05)]. (4) The total effective rate in the children aged from 4 to 7 years was better than that in the group aged from 8 to 10 years and the group aged from 11 to 14 years [79. 7% (47/59) vs 71.7% (33/46, P < 0.05); 79.7% (47/59) vs 43.3% (13/30, P < 0.01)]. (5) The total effective rate in the children with the sick duration ≥ 4 year was lower than that in the group with the sick duration <2 years and that 2 to 4 years (both P < 0. 01). (6) The total effective rate in the children with the annual attack frequency of 2 to 4 times was better than that with the frequency ≥ 4 times (P < 0.01). (7) For the cases with skin reaction after treatment, the total effective rate was better than that in the cases without reaction (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe point application in summer for the prevention in winter reduces the attack frequency of pediatric pneumonia, shortens the sick duration and has achieved the better significant efficacy in the cases of lower age, shorter sick duration, less attack frequency and moderate skin reaction.
