ObjectiveLevosimendan,a new calcium ion sensitizer,is currently used in the treatment of heart failure and as an option for patients with injury to the left heart or at high risk for surgery.The study tried to evaluate the effects of levosimendan and ulinastain for protecting myocardium from ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury to the isolated immature rabbit hearts and investigate the possible mechanism.MethodsFifty New Zealand long-ear white immature rabbits were anesthetized and heparinized.Their hearts were rapidly removed and mounted on modified Langendorff apparatus.A left ventricle pressure monitoring line was inserted through the left atrial and mitral valve.The hearts were equilibrated with oxygenated K-H solution at 37℃ for 10 minutes.The rabbit hearts were randomly divided into 5 groups with 10 hearts in each group.Hearts in group C were perfused with K-H solution,in group U were perfused with ulinastain (50000 U/kg),in group LI were perfused with Levosimendan 0.1 μmol/L,in group L2 were perfused with Levosimendan 0.3 μmol/L,and in group L + U were perfused with Ulinastain (50 000 U/kg) and Levosimendan 0.1μmol/L.The hearts were arrested with St-Thomas solution for 30 min.Hearts in each group underwent 30 min-reperfusion with the same solutions after 30 min-global myocardial ischemia.Heart rate ( HR) Jeft ventricular pressure ( LVP) and LVdp/dtMax were monitored.Effluent from coronary sinus was collected at time of ischemia /reperfusion for measuring the concentration of TNF-α,IL-6,CK and cTnI.ResultsLVP and LVdp/dt in group L1,L2 and L + U were better than those in group C and U.But the heart rates in group L2 were higher than in other groups.Concentrations of CK,cTnI,TNF-α and IL-6 in the effluent from coronary sinus at 0、10 and 30 min of reperfusion were significantly lower in group L + U than in the other groups.ConclusionLevosimendan may have the similar effects with ulinastain in reducing the reperfusion injury to the immature myocardium.The protective effect of levosimendan (0.1 μmol/L) in combination with ulinastain (50 000 U/kg) was better than that of levosimendan or ulinastain alone.

Objective To study the role the pathogenesis of early acute lung injury (ALI) of rabbits induced by intravascular injection of endotoxin (ET) with the intervening method of Chloroquine. Methods Rabbits were randomly assigned to three groups: control group, ET group, and ET+ chloroquine group. Acute lung injury was induced by intravascular injection of ET (500μg/kg). The arterial gas analyses, leucocyte and platelet counts in peripheral blood, PLA2 activity both in serum and lung tissue, lipid peroxide (LPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in lung tissue were measured. Electron microscope and light microscope were used to observe the pathological injuries in pulmonary tissue. The protective effects of chloroquine in early ALI were evaluated. Results Compared with saline controls, rabbits treated with ET displayed the early lung injuries, such as the decrease of PaO2 (P＜0.05), the decrease of leucocytes and platelets in peripheral blood, the leukocytes sequestration in lung tissue. The PLA2 activity significantly increased in ET group compared with control group and chloroquine group both in serum and pulmonary tissue. In ET group, concentration of LPO increased in lung tissue (P＜0.05), while concentration of SOD decreased (P＜0.05). Severe histopathological injuries were presented in ET group, including pulmonary edema, lung tissue haemorrhage, inflammatory cells infiltration, asphyxial membrand formation, partial pulmonary closure and emphysema.Ultrastructural changes showed both type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ epithelial cells injury in ET group, the edema of endothelial cells, interalveolar septum thickening. In chloroquine group, PaO2 didn't decrease, PLA2 activities in serum and pulmonary tissue were lower than ET group (P＜0.05, P＜0.05), while the concentration of LPO in lung tissue decreased (P＜0.01) and SOD increased significantly (P＜0.01). Pathological examination showed slight pulmonary edema, inflammatory cells infiltration were extenuated, ultrastructural examination proved that the injuries were alleviated by chloroquine compared with ET group. Conclusion Intravascular injection of ET could successfully induce the early ALI models in rabbits. Chloroquine could inhibit the PLA2 activation and reduce the oxidative injury in lung tissue. The experiment result demonstrated PLA2 activation and oxidative stress played important roles in the pathophysiological process of early ET-induced ALI in rabbits.

Objective To study the changes in activity of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in the course of endotoxin (ET) induced acute lung injury (ALI) inrabbits and the antagonizing effect of fructose-1, 6-diphosphate (FDP), in order to evaluate the therapeutic effect of FDP on ET-induced ALI. Methods Flapeared white rabbits were randomly assigned to three groups: control group (group A), ET challenge group (group B) and treatment group (ET challenged followedby FDP, group C). Group A animals were injected with saline (2ml/kg) as control. Group B animals were injected with ET (500μg/kg) solution followed by saline. Total amount of liquid was 2ml/kg. Group C animals were given the same amount of ET solution followed by injection of FDP (300mg/kg) solution. Total amount of liquid was also 2 ml/kg. During the experiment, respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, arterial blood gases and the plasma PLA2 activity were determined at 0h, 0. 5h, 2h, 4h and 6h respectively. The rabbits were sacrificed at 6h, pulmonary PLA2 activity was assessed, and the pathologic changes in pulmonary tissues were examined with light microscope and transmission electron microscope. Results Compared with group A,rabbits of group B manifested the typical characters of ALI after ET injection, and the PLA2 activity in both serum and pulmonary tissue was much higher than those of group A (P＜0. 01).Values of the PLA2 activity in group C were between those of the two former groups. At the rame time, obvious pathological changes indicating lung injury were observed in group B and only mild pathological changes could be discerned in group C. Conclusion Activation of PLA2 activity is an important factor in pathogenesis of ET-induced ALI. FDP can antagonize the PLA2 activity and protect rabbits from early ET induced ALI to a certain extent.

It is therapeutically effective to apply hemopoietic growth factors to treat hemopoietic irradiation injuries, but for other tissues injuries, hemopoietic growth factors nearly do not work. At the same time, they are only suitable for the patients with severe and lower level acute radiation sickness (ARS). Besides, clinical therapeutic efficacy of marrow transplantation is not optimistic due to difficulties of marrow zygosity and severe complications such as graft versus host disease, radiation interstitial pneumonitis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could secret hemopoietic growth factors, rebuild hemopoietic microenvironment and be easily transfected by exogenous gene, which also have low immunogenicity. At present, studies on MSCs application in the treatment of radiation injuries are at the early -stage, but the precise mechanism is not clear. However, the specific characteristics can make up the disadvantage of traditional treatment of acute radiation sickness, and the clinical application is wide.
