Aim: To study the distribution and excretion of baicalein and baicalin in rats. Methods: An LC/MS method was applied. Chromatographic separation was performed on a C_(18) column( 150 mm ×6.0 mm, 5 μm) with methanol-10 mmol/L ammonium acetate (containing 0. 5% formic acid) as the mobile phase. A trip-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometer was set in positive selected reaction monitoring mode. The sample was extracted with methanol-acetonitrile( 1:1) after the addition of phosphoric buffer solution and luteolin, which acted as the internal standard. The supernatant was evaporated to dryness, and the residual was reconstituted with mobile phase and analyzed. Results: The distribution profiles of the parent drug and its main metabolite showed two peaks between 20-40 min and 8-10 h after oral administration of baicalein, which fit the plasma concentration-time profile of baicalein in rats. At 20 min after the dosing, the concentration levels of baicalein were significantly higher than those of baicalin in stomach, liver and intestines, the converse result occurred in kidney. The excretion results showed that baicalin was the predominant excretion form in bile and urine, while baicalein was the negligible excretion form. There was more baicalein than baicalin in rat feces. Conclusion: Baicalein was absorbed and distributed quickly to various tissues and easily transformed to its metabolite at the same time.

Objective To investigate the neurotoxic effects of different concentrations of tetracaine and ropivacaine on the brachial plexus nerve in rats.Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 410-430 g,were randomly divided into 8 groups (n =6 each):normal saline group (group NS),0.25％,0.50％ and 1.00％ tetracaine groups (groups T1-3 ),and 0.25％,0.50％,1.00％ and 2.00％ ropivacaine groups (groups R1-4 ).The rats received injection of normal saline 1.0 ml,0.25％,0.50％ and 1.00％ tetracaine 0.5 ml,0.25％,0.50％,and 1.00％ ropivacaine 1.0 ml and 2.00％ ropivacaine 0.5 ml in groups NS,T1-3 and R1-4 respectively through one side of the axillary sheath.The other side of the axillary sheath served as control side.Five days later,compound action potential and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) of the brachial plexus nerve were measured.Tne brachial plexus nerve was obtained as the specimen for microscopic examination with light and transmission electron microscope.Results Compared with the control side and group NS,the compound action potential and NCV of the brachial plexus nerve were significantly decreased in groups T2,3 and R3,4 ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The compound action potential and NCV of the brachial plexus nerve were gradually decreased with the increasing concentrations of tetracaine in groups T1 3 ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The compound action potential and NCV of the brachial plexus nerve were significantly decreased in group R4 as compared with groups R1-3 (P ＜ 0.05).The microscopic examination showed that the pathologic changes were more severe in groups T2,3 and R3,4 than those on the control side and than in group NS.Conclusion 0.50％ and 1.00％ tetracaine,and 1.00％ and 2.00％ ropivacaine can result in pathologic damage to the brachial plexus nerve in rats and the degree of damage is related to the concentration.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on renal function in patients with hemorrhagic shock undergoing emergency surgery.Methods Sixty patients (27 males, 33 females) with hemorrhagic shock, aged 18-69 years, ASA physical status Ⅲ or Ⅳ, required emergency surgery under general anesthesia, were randomized into two groups (n=30 each): dexmedetomidine group (group D) and control group (group C).The patients in group D receiving a loading dose of dexmedetomidine (0.5 μg/kg within 10 min) after the induction of anesthesia followed by a continuous infusion rate of 0.4 μg·kg-1·h-1 till 30 min before the end of surgery, while those in group C received equal volume of normal saline.Venous blood were obtained immediately before beginning of surgery (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), 24 h after surgery (T3) and 72 h after surgery (T4) for detecting the concentrations of the serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN), the contents of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1).The range ability of the concentration of the serum Scr from T4 to T1 (ΔScr) and the content of the serum HMGB1 from T4 to T1 (ΔHMGB1) were also calculated and recorded.Hemodynamic index (including MAP, HR) and arterial blood gas results were recorded during surgery.Results Compared with T1, MAP, CVP and BE were increased, meanwhile, HR and Lac were decreased at T2, but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups.No statistical difference was found in BUN at any time point between group D and group C.Compared with T1, Scr decreased in both groups at T2-T4.The ΔScr in group D was higher than that in group C at T4 (P＜0.05).The content of serum NGAL at T4 in group D was significantly dropped when compared with T1 (P＜0.01) and was lower than that in group C (P＜0.05).Compared with T1, the content of serum HMGB1 was significantly decreased in both groups at T2 (P＜0.05);the content of serum HMGB1 at T3 in group C was significantly increased and was higher than that in group D;the ΔHMGB1 in group C was higher than that in group D.Conclusion Hemorrhagic shock could induce acute kidney injury.Perioperative continuous infusion of dexmedetomidine facilitated renal function recovery after ischemia-reperfusion injury in patients with hemorrhagic shock through inhibiting the elevation of serum HMGB1.

BACKGROUND: The effectiveness of femoral nerve block in perioperative analgesia for total knee arthroplasty has been widely recognized, but the need for combined sciatic nerve block remains controversial.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the analgesic effect and rehabilitation training of femoral and sciatic nerve block in the perioperative period of total knee arthroplasty. METHODS: 150 patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were randomly divided into three groups: general anesthesia, femoral nerve block and femoral and sciatic nerve block groups. The visual analogue scale scores at rest and in activity, range of motion of the knee, postoperative hospitalization time, adverse effects and the Hospital for Special Surgery scores were recorded and compared among groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The order of visual analogue scale scores at rest and in activity at each time point postoperatively was as follows: general anesthesia group > femoral nerve block group > femoral and sciatic nerve block group (P < 0.05). (2) The range of motion of the knee at different time points postoperatively was largest in the femoral nerve block group, followed by the femoral nerve block group, and smallest in the general anesthesia group (P < 0.05). (3) The postoperative hospitalization time in the femoral nerve block and femoral and sciatic nerve block groups was significantly less than that in the general anesthesia group, and the time in the femoral and sciatic nerve block group was significantly less than that in the femoral nerve block group (P < 0.05). (4) The Hospital for Special Surgery scores at 1 month postoperatively in the femoral nerve block and femoral and sciatic nerve block groups were significantly higher than those in the general anesthesia group, and the scores in the femoral and sciatic nerve block group were significantly higher than those in the femoral nerve block group (P < 0.05). But the Hospital for Special Surgery knee scores at 3 and 6 months postoperatively did not differ significantly among groups (P > 0.05). (5) These results indicate that the femoral and sciatic nerve block has better postoperative analgesia effect compared with general anesthesia and femoral nerve block under multimodal analgesia in total knee arthroplasty, which is favorable for early rehabilitative training.

Objective:To determine the expression of transmembrane protein 45A (TMEM45A) in keloid tissues and fibroblasts, and to evaluate its effect on extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis by keloid-derived fibroblasts (KFs) .Methods:Samples of surgically excised keloid and normal foreskin tissues were collected from the Department of Dermatology and Department of Urology of Yanbian University Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020, and TMEM45A protein expression was determined in keloid tissues and KFs by Western blot analysis. KFs were divided into TMEM45A-specific small interfering RNA (siRNA) group and control siRNA group to be transfected with the TMEM45A-specific siRNA and control siRNA respectively. Then, Western blot analysis was performed to evaluate the effects of down-regulation of the TMEM45A gene on the expression of myofibroblast marker protein (α-smooth muscle actin) and ECM-related proteins.Results:Compared with normal skin tissues (1.00 ± 0.11) and fibroblasts (1.00 ± 0.20), TMEM45A expression levels significantly decreased in keloid tissues (0.26 ± 0.05) and KFs (0.41 ± 0.09), respectively ( t = 10.76, 4.75, P < 0.001, = 0.009, respectively). The expression levels of α-smooth muscle actin, ECM-related type Ⅰ collagen, type Ⅲ collagen, and fibronectin were significantly higher in the TMEM45A-specific siRNA group than in the control siRNA group ( t = -5.98, -4.57, -4.90, -7.19, P = 0.004, 0.010, 0.008, 0.002, respectively) . Conclusion:Lowly expressed TMEM45A in keloids may play an important role in the pathogenesis of keloids by promoting ECM synthesis.
