Objective To investigate the change of the neutrophil apoptosis and neutrophil respiratory burst in the patients and the effect of ulinastatin on the apoptosis of neutrophil and respiratory burst of neutrophil during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods Sixty-two patients undergoing valve replacement with CPB were randomly divided into two groups: ulinastatin group (U group, 31 cases) and control group (C group, 31 cases). In U group patients received ulinastatin after induction of anesthesia. In C group patients received equal volume of normal saline, instead of ulinastatin. Arterial blood was obtained before operation (T1), 30 min after the start of CPB (T2), 30 min after the termination of CPB (T3). The apoptosis of neutrophil and respiratory burst of neutrophil were measured by flow cytometer. The level of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured by kit. Results In C group, compared with T1 [(66.57±5.93)%], the rate of the apoptosis of neutrophil was significantly decreased at T2[(55.37±3.51)%] and T3 [(48.92±4.21)%] (P<0.05). And in U group, compared with T1 [(73.57±7.94)%], the rate of the apoptosis of neutrophil was significantly decreased at T2 [(68.34±4.92)% ] and T3 [(62.13±4.76)%] (P<0.05), And it reached to the minimum at T3. The rate of the neutrephil apeptosis was significantly lower in C group than that in U group (P<0.05). The respiratory burst of neutrophil increased significantly after the start of CPB and reached to the peak at T3[C group (1422.50±89.75) MCF,U group (1156.52±93.20) MCF]. The respiratory burst of neutrophil in U group was significandy lower than that in C group at T2 and T3 (P<0.05). The vitality of SOD decreased significantly after the start of operation in the two groups (P<0.05). The level of MDA increased significantly after the start of operation in the two groups, and reached to the peak at T3. The vitality of SOD in C group was significantly lower than that in U group at T3 (P<0.05). The level of MDA in C group was significantly higher than that in U group at T3 (P<0.05). Conclusions The rate of neutrophil apoptosis decreased and the respiratory burst of neutrophil increased during CPB. By improving the apoptosis of neutrophil and reducing the respiratory burst of neutrophil, ulinastatin can inhibit inflammatory reaction during CPB. Meanwhile, ulinastatin can improve the vitality of SOD and reduce the level of MDA. In conclusion, ulinastatin has a significant protective effect during CPB.

Objective To study the foxml gene and its protective effect on the lung tissue of rats with acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and to observe the dexamethason' s (DEX) impacts on foxml gene and the prognosis of ALI. Method Seventy-two healthy mice were randomly(random number) divid-ed into three groups: control group (A group, n = 24), model group (B group, n = 24) and DEX treatment group (C group, n = 24). The observing intervals were respectively set in 24 h, 48 h and 72 hours. At each ob-serving interval, the foxml protein in lung tissue of mice was detected by using immunohistochemistry (IHC), and the expression of foxml gene in lung tissue was detected by using RT-PCR, as well as to observe the pathological changes in lung tissue. Results Comparisons were made between paired groups at 24 h,48 h and 72 h intervals in which the expression of foxml mRNA and the level of foxml protein in lung tissue of mice in C group were signifi-cantly higher than those in B group (P < 0.05), and those in B group were significantly higher than those in A group (P < 0.05). The expression of foxml mRNA and the level of foxml protein in lung tissue of mice in B group at 48 h interval were significantly higher than those both at intervals of 72 h and 24 h (P < 0.05), and the those at 72 interval were significantly higher than those at 24 h interval (P < 0.05). Compared with B group, the pathologi-cal changes in lung tissue of mice in C group were lessened. Conclusions In both model group and dexamethasone treatment group, the expression of foxml mRNA and the level of foxml protein in lung tissue of mice are increased significantly. Dexamethasone lessens the injury of both vascular endothelial cells and alveolar epithelial ceils of lung tissue, and it also significantly increases the expression of foxml mRNA and the level of foxml protein.
