Objective To explore the effect of bcl 2 in vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC) apoptosis induced by nitric oxide(NO),we investigated the effect of NO on Bcl 2 protein expression in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs),and effect of Bcl 2 over expression on apoptosis is(VSMCs) induced by NO. Methods Cultured rat VSMCs at passage 5 to 8 were used for experiments,S nitroso N acetypenicillamine(SNAP) was used as NO donor.Cells were preincubated for 24-48 hours in special culture dish with conditioned medium to reach quiescent,and then incubated in conditioned medium containing 0 5 mmol/L SNAP.After 8 to 10 hours,the cells were fixed and Bcl 2 expression was analyzed by ACAS 570 through fluorescent immunochemistry.Vascular smooth muscle cells were transfected with bcl 2 gene through retrovirus to allow overexpression of Bcl 2 in VSMCs.Finally,we observed the apoptosis in normal VSMCs and VSMCs infected with bcl 2. Results SNAP downregulated Bcl 2 expression in VSMCs.PCR and Southern hybridization confirmed the integration of the bcl 2 retrovirus vector into vascular smooth muscle cells genomic DNA.And fluorescence immunohistochemistry confirmed that Bcl 2 protein was overexpressed in VSMCs infected with bcl 2.And ratio of apoptosis become lower in VSMCs infected with bcl 2. Conclusion bcl 2 can inhibit apoptosis of VSMCs induced by SNAP.It is suggested that downregulation of Bcl 2 protein is one of the ways in which SNAP induces VSMCs apoptosis,and apoptosis in VSMCs induced by SNAP is regulated by bcl 2.;

Objective To discuss postoperative analgesia effect of patient automatic controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) and cocktail therapy (CT) after total hip replacement. Methods Eighty-eighty patients of selective total hip replacement were selected, and the patients were divided into PCEA group and CT group by random digits table method with 44 cases each. The postoperative resting state and active state visual analogue score (VAS), dosage of opioid, discharge time, postoperative complications, postoperative sleep quality score and hip joint mobility were compared between 2 groups. Results The resting state and active state VAS in PCEA group 12, 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly lower than those in CT group, resting state: (3.68 ± 1.45) scores vs. (4.23 ± 1.14) scores, (2.61 ± 1.04) scores vs. (3.92 ± 1.23) scores and (2.31 ± 0.97) scores vs. (3.56 ± 1.21) scores, active state:(4.54 ± 1.63) scores vs. (5.87 ± 2.11) scores, (3.51 ± 0.94) scores vs. (4.34 ± 1.07) scores and (3.01 ± 0.95) scores vs. (4.05 ± 1.17) scores, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). But there were no statistical differences in VAS 72 h after operation and at discharge between 2 groups (P>0.05). The dosage of opioid in PCEA group was significantly lower than that in CT group:(9.58 ± 5.35) mg vs. (11.27 ± 4.48) mg, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). The incidences of nausea vomiting and headache dizziness in CT group were significantly lower than those in PCEA group: 20.45% (9/44) vs. 45.45% (20/44) and 4.55% (2/44) vs. 13.64% (6/44), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in length of hospital stay, postoperative sleep quality score and postoperative hip joint mobility between 2 groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Choice of analgesic regimen of choice should not be made only according to the length of hospital stay. Individualized treatment is recommended. According to specific circumstances and needs of patients, patients with less anesthetics and a tendency to nausea should use PCEA, and for chronic pain patients CT may be more effective.

Objective To investigate the effects of nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-NAME on two tone fear extinction design in rats.Methods In AAA design,the rats received fear conditioning,extinction training and extinction test in the same context.In AAB design,the rats received fear conditioning and extinction training in context A,extinction test in context B.In each task,40 male rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =10 per group),and L-NAME(10,20 and 40 mg/kg) or saline was injected intraperitoneally (i.p) 30 min prior to extinction training.Percent freezing was used as an index for fear memory during extinction test phases.Further experiments were used to test state-dependency effects or nonspecific changes of locomotor activity that followed L-NAME injection.Results In AAA design,percent freezing was (27.42 ± 6.52) ％ in saline group,and (30.83 ±7.15) ％,(32.49 ± 8.55) ％,(38.94 ± 11.48) ％ in 10,20,40 mg/kg L-NAME group respectively.There was no significant difference in the level of percent freezing among the four groups (P＞0.05).In AAB design,percent freezing was (30.32 ± 6.15) ％ in saline group,and (32.83 ± 6.64) ％,(39.49 ± 8.74) ％,(49.94 ± 10.83) ％in 10,20,40 mg/kg L-NAME group respectively.Compared with saline,only rats with L-NAME 40 mg/kg showed more levels of freezing (P ＜0.01).In state-dependency effects test,compared with Sal-Sal group ((26.73 ±5.62) ％) which received both saline injections 30 min before extinction training and extinction test,respectively,both NAME-Sal group((48.44 ± 10.46) ％) and NAME-NAME group((61.25 ± 13.24) ％) showed more levels of freezing (P＜0.01,respectively).Conclusion These results show that L-NAME produces a task-dependent impairment of fear extinction,and implies that nitric oxide signaling is involved in memory process of certain extinction tasks.
