Chinese Journal of Marine Drugs 1994;0(02):-
Hyperlipidemia rats were fed by purified oil of Anguulla japonica (127. 7, 255. 4 and 510. 8 mg/kg) reduced significantly serum total cholesterol (TC), trigliceride (TG) and low density Hpoprotein(LDL) level. Effects of 127. 7 mg/kg were not significant. TC reduced rats of three doses were 13. 3%,37. 1% and 48. 7% respectively; TG reduced rats were 9. 5,12. 9 and 25. 2%; LDL reduced rats were 5. 1, 47. 4 and 62.2%. Also, doses of 255. 4 and 510. 8 mg/kg increased significantly high density lipoprotein(HDL) level. HDL increased rats of three doses were 8. 2,67. 3 and 61. 2%. Dose of 510. 8 mg/kg reduced significantly whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity. Dose of 255. 4 mg/kg reduced significantly whole blood viscosity, but did not reduced plasma viscosity. A dose of 127. 7 mg/kg had no effects on both whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity.

AIM: The synergistic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and endothelin- 1 (ET-1 ) on rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC) proliferation was observed. The possible mechanism of the synergism was also investigated. METHODS: BrdU incorporation and cell counting method were adopted to value the pro - proliferative effect of VSMC. Western- blotting was used to observe the variation of bFGF and FGFR - 1 isoforms expression. RESULTS: bFGF and ET- 1 could promote VSMC proliferation separately, and synergistically in combination. The synergism was dose - and time - dependent. ET- 1 increased all the three bFGF isoforms and FGFR - 1 protein level in dose - and time- dependent manner. In addition, after exhaustion of intracellular PKC, the upregulation effects of ET- 1 on bFGF and FGFR - 1 expressions in VSMC both inclined. CONCLUSION: bFGF and ET- 1 had synergistic effect on VSMC proliferation. ET- 1 may increase the responsiveness of VSMC to bFGF through modulation of bFGF isoforms together with FGFR - 1, which was PKC - dependent.

objective To investigate the changes in angiotensin-Ⅱ (AT-Ⅱ), endothelin (ET) andcalcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) during clipping of intracranial aneurysm performed under desfiuraneanesthesia. Methods Forty-five ASAⅠ -Ⅱ patients (20 male, 25 female) aged 14-66yr undergoing electiveclipping of intracranial aneurysm two weeks after acute subarachnoid bleeding. Anesthesia was induced withmidazolam 0 .05 mg?kg~(-1), fentanyl 2?g?kg~(-1), propofol 2 mg?kg~(-1) and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg~(-1). The patientswere mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation and P_(ET)CO_2 was maintained at 30-35 mm Hg. Anesthesia wasmaintained with desflurane at 1 .0-1 .5 MAC with low flow (0.3-0.5 L?min~(-1) ) supplemented with intermittentintravenous boluses of vecuronium. Radial artery was cannulated for direct continuous BP monitoring. ECG, HR,SPO_2 and P_(ET) CO_2 were continuous monitored during operation. Blood samples were taken before induction ofanesthesia (T_1, baseline), when dura was opened (T_2 ), while aneurysm was being clipped (T_3 ) and 30 min afterclipping for determination of plasma concentrations of AT-Ⅱ, ET and CGRP. Results Plasma concentration ofAT-Ⅱ did not change significandy throughout the surgery. Plasma ET concentration decreased significantly at T_2and T_3 compared with the baseline (P
