Objective To study the relationship between gastric emptying dysfunction and neurotensin(NT) in functional dyspepsia(FD) patients. Methods Gastric emptying function in 54 FD patients was measured with solid radioopaque markers. Patients were divided into two groups according to the results, one of which with delayed gastric emptying and the other with normal gastric emptying. Seventeen healthy volunteers served as normal control group. The NT levels in plasma (fasting and postprandial) and the mucosa of gastric antrum and descending portion of duodenum were measured by radioimmunoassay(RIA). Results The NT levels in fasting and postprandial plasma and the mucosa of gastric antrum and descending portion of duodenum in FD group with delayed gastric emptying were significantly higher than those in FD group with normal gastric emptying and in normal control group. The three groups did not differ significantly in incremental extent of plasma NT after test meal. The NT levels in fasting and postprandial plasma and the mucosa of gastric antrum and descending portion of duodenum in FD group with normal gastric emptying did not differ statistically from those in normal control group. Conclusion Gastric emptying dysfunction is closely related to NT, which can inhibit gastrointestinal motility and delay gastric emptying. Thus, NT is important in the pathogenesis of FD.

Objective To study the relationship between gastrointestinal hormones and gastric emptying in functional dyspepsia (FD) patients. Methods Gastric emptying was assessed with solid radiopaque markers in 54 patients with functional dyspepsia, and then all patients were divided into two groups, one with delayed gastric emptying and the other with normal gastric emptying. 17 healthy volunteers served as normal control group. The plasma NT, MTL, Gas and SS levels (fasting and 30 minutes after meal) were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). Results The fasting and postprandial plasma NT levels and the postprandial plasma Gas level were significantly higher in FD group with delayed gastric emptying than those in FD group with normal gastric emptying and in normal control group. The MTL levels in fasting and postprandial plasma were significantly lower in FD group with delayed gastric emptying than those in FD group with normal gastric emptying and in normal control group. The plasma SS levels did not show differences among three groups. Conclusion Gastrointestinal dysmyotonia is closely related to NT, MTL and Gas. NT, MTL and Gas may be important in the pathogenesis of FD.

OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effects of Mongolian medicine Lomatogonium rotatum water extract against acute liver injury in mice caused by D-GlaN and CCl4. METHODS:60 mice were randomly divided into normal group(normal sa-line),D-GlaN model group(normal saline),positive control group(Kuihua hugan tablet,0.56 g/kg)and L. rotatum water extract high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups [3,1.5,0.75 g(crude drug)/kg] 10 rats in each group. They were given relevant medicine intragastrically once a day for consecutive 23 days. 30 min after last administration,those group were given D-GlaN ip to induce acute liver injury model except normal group. The activity of AST,ALT,ALP,and acetylcholinesterase(CHE)content in serum were detected,and liver index was calculated. Liver histopathology was observed and scored. Other 60 mice were selected, and then grouped,given medicine and detected in lab index with same method with above group,except for modeling method(ig, 0.1% CCl4). RESULTS:Compared with normal group,necrosis or degeneration of liver cells were obvious in 2 model groups, pathological score,the activity of AST,ALT and ALP increased while CHE content decreased;liver index of D-GlaN model group increased while that of CCl4 model group decreased (P<0.05). Compared with D-GlaN model group,the activity of AST,ALT and ALP and liver index decreased in L. rotatum water extract groups,while CHE content increased(P<0.05);pathological mor-phology had been improved,and pathological score decreased. Compared with CCl4 model group,ALT activity decreased in L. rota-tum water extract low-dose group,while CHE content and liver index increased;CHE content of L. rotatum water extract medi-um-dose group decreased,while liver index increased;the activity of AST,ALT and ALP decreased in L. rotatum water extract high-dose group,while CHE content increased(P<0.05). Pathological morphology of L. rotatum water extract groups had been im-proved to certain extent,and pathological score decreased. CONCLUSIONS:L. rotatum water extract could protect acute liver inju-ry in mice induced by D-GlaN and CCl4.
