The interaction between the immune system and nervous sytem affcts nervous function.There is a close relationship between the episode of epilepsy and immunity,the molecular basis of which is the network of cytokines.In order to quest new methods of contolling epilepsy by regulating the network of cytokines,the roles of several cytokines in the ocurrence and onset of epilepsy were reviewed in this article.

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is a pancreatic polypeptide-related peptide, consisting of 36 amino acids. NPY is expressed in the nervous system widely and abundantly, mainly in the hippocampus, regulates the excitability of neurons through its receptors (Y_1, Y_2, Y_5). In recent years the research progress indicated the changes induced by seizures in the level and distribution of NPY, its receptors subtypes and their respective mRNAs in brain. The inhibitory action of NPY on glutamate-mediated neurotransmission and in seizure phenomena, suggests that one of its roles in hippocampal physiology is to modulate neuronal excitability by regu-lating glutamate release.

Objective To investigate the relationship between bispectral index (BIS) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of propofol or effect-site concentrations during target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol and evaluate the accuracy of the infusion system targeting at effect-site concentration.Methods Twelve healthy mongrel dogs weighing (17.04? 1.53) kg were anesthetized with intramuscular ketamine 5 mg?kg-1 followed by enflurane inhalation. A catheter was inserted into subarachnoid space and advanced to the base of skull for the collection of CSF. BIS, hemodynamics and PETCO2 were monitored continuously during the experiment. Target effect-site propofol concentration was set at 3 ?g?ml-1 and infusion was continued for 15 min. CSF was collected at 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 45 and 60 min after infusion was started for determination of propofol concentration by high performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. Results The equilibrium between predicted plasma and effect-site concentration was reached at 10.9 min and the target effect-site concentration was maintained at 3 ?g?ml-1 .The peak CSF concentration of propofol was (0.29? 0.14)?g?ml-1 .CSF concentrations were much lower than the effect-site concentrations at all sampling times (about 18.7% of the effect-site concentration on average) . BIS was consistent with the CSF concentrations of propofol. Both of them reached the lowest or peak values at 5 min after infusion was started, while the peak effect-site concentration was reached relatively later. BIS was found to be better correlated with CSF concentration (? = 0.9195) than with the effect-site concentration (? = 0.554) . The dogs developed hypotension as expected but no other severe adverse effect was observed. Conclusion The inconsistency of BIS with effect-site concentration during TCI of propofol may result from its pharmacokinetic parameters. Good correlation between BIS and CSF concentration indicates that CSF concentration can reflect the pharmacokinetic profileof propofol at effect-site more accurately than the plasma concentration during TCI of propofol targeting at effect-site concentration.

Objective To investigate the relationship between circadian rhythm of perioperative melatonin secretion and neuropsychological status in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) .Methods Forty male ASA Ⅱ-Ⅲ patients aged 45-60yr scheduled for elective CABG under hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) or off-pump were enrolled in this study. They were allocated to CPB group ( n = 20) or off-pump group (n - 20). Blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia (T1 ), 10 min after tracheal intubation (T2), 10 min after heparinization (T3) , 2h after skin incision (T4), immediately before neutralization of heparin with protamine (T5 ), at the end of surgery after skin suture (T6 ) and every 3h after operation for 24h for determination of plasma melatonin concentration using enzyme-linked immunosorbent. Degree of depression was assessed by Self-Rating Depression Scale; anxiety by the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory and cognitive function by neuropsychological tests respectively, the day before operation, 7-10 days after surgery and 3 months postoperatively. Results In the 24 hours after operation the circadian secretion pattern of melatonin was kept in 2 patients in CPB group and 6 patients in off-pump group, but disturbed in the remaining patients in both groups. Postoperative depression scores were significantly higher than the preoperative baseline values in both groups. Anxiety scores at 7-10 days after operation were significantly higher in CPB group than those in off-pump group (P

Objective To determine the changes in perioperative plasma melatonin, cortisol and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and neuropsychological function in patients who developed CNS complications after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) .Methods Three patients developed CNS complications (cerebral infarction, motor aphasia, motor and sensory aphasia) after CABG performed under hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were studied. Blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia (T1) , 10 min after tracheal intubation (T2), 10 min after heparinization (T3), at 30 min of CPB (T4) , immediately after discontinuation of CPB (T5), at closure of chest (T6), immediately after returning to ICU (T7) and every 3 h in ICU for 24 h (T8-15) for determination of plasma concentrations of NSE, cortisol and melatonin using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and radioimmunoassay. Cognitive function was measured before and 10 to 20 days after operation using a battery of tests, while depression and anxiety were assessed by self-rating depression scale and state-trait anxiety inventory respectively. Results The plasma NSE concentration was increased after operation in all 3 patients. The circadian rhythms of melatonin and cortisol were disturbed in patient 1 and 2 during the 24h after operation but were retained in patient 3. In patient 1 and 3 the performance of the trailing making test, the digit symbol subtest of WAIS-R and the stroop color word interference test were poor, meanwhile they became more depressed and less anxious. Conclusion In patients who develop CNS complication after CABG, there are cognitive decline, sentimental disorders and disrupted circadian rhythm of melatonin and cortisol secretion.

Objective To analyze the changes of the urine sodium and serum sodium in different types and different duration and different temperature in children with febrile seizures,to explore its clinical significance. Methods The children with febrile seizures(n =50)were selected as the group Ⅰ,and the children with fever but without seizure(n =50)were selected as the group Ⅱ,both of them were from pediatric ward.The control group(n =20)without fever or seizure was from Children's Health Section.All the children were checked serum sodium level and urine sodium and urine creatinine level.Results The sodium/creatinine ratio in the groupⅠ[(25.07 ±6.517)] was significantly higher than that in the group Ⅱ[(20.43 ±5.48)]and group Ⅲ[(14.88 ±5.11)](F =33.519, P <0.05),but there was no significant difference of the sodium/creatinine ratio in different ages and different types of the group Ⅰ,and there was negative relevance between the serum sodium and the sodium/creatinine ratio in the groupⅠ(r =-0.517,P <0.05).The mean serum sodium level in the groupⅠ[(133.50 ±3.14)mmol/L]was signifi-cantly lower than that in the group Ⅱ[(137.60 ±2.59)mmol/L]and group Ⅲ[(138.90 ±2.24)mmol/L](F =39.220,P <0.05),but there were no significant differences of the serum sodium in different types and different dura-tion and different temperature of seizure in the group Ⅰ.Conclusion The study shows that serum sodium is lower and the urine sodium is higher in children with febrile seizures,the changes of the urine sodium and serum sodium are not related to the types.The children with febrile seizures should be timely monitoring of serum sodium,urine sodium levels,and according to changes in the level of serum sodium,urine sodium,early appropriate supplement containing sodium liquid and maintaining the blood sodium to normal levels can reduce the recurrence of seizure.

Objective To screen the ryanodine receptor type 1(RYR1)gene in a Chinese pedigree with malignant hyperthermia(MH).Methods Total genome was extracted conventionally from peripheral leucocytes of the prohand and the other members of the family.In order to detect mutations in the RYR1 gene,part exons were amplified by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and then subjected tO automatic DNA sequencing.The detected mumfion in the gene was confirmed in the preband and the other members of the family using Fok Ⅰ restriction analysis.Results DNA sequencing of PCR-amplified fragments of the pwband revealed c.6724C＞T (P.T2206M),a recurrent missense mutation which had been detected in Caucasian MH cages.Restriction analysis of all available family members showed that one daughter and one son of the 4 children of the proband were the missense mutation carriers,indicating that they were MH-susceptible individuals.Conclusion The Chinese susceptible to MH carries the simile RYR1 gene mutation to the Caucasians susceptible to MH.
