ObjectiveTo investigate the role of T-type calcium channel in the spinal neurotoxicity of intrathecal (IT) lidocaine in rats.MethodsForty-eight adult male SD rats in which IT catheter was successfully implanted,weighing 230-270 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n =12 each):dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)group (group D),lidocaine group (group L),mibefradil + lidocaine group (group M),normal saline + lidocaine group (group N).Another 12 rats served as control group (group C).DMSO and 10％ lidocaine 20μl were injected intrathecally in groups D and L respectively.After mibefradil 200 μg/10μl and normal saline 10 μl were injected intrathecally in groups M and N respectively,10％ lidocaine 20 μl was injected intrathecally in the two groups.The mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL) were measured before IT injection and at 2,4,8 and 12 h and 1,2,3,4 and 5 d after IT injection (T0-9).Four rats were sacrificed at T6 in each group and their lumbar enlargements were removed for microscopic examination.ResultsCompared with group C,no significant change in MWT and TWL was found at each time point in group D,MWT was significantly increased at T1-8 and TWL was significantly prolonged at T1-7 in groups L and N,and MWT was significantly increased at T1-6 and TWL was significantly prolonged at T1-6 in group M ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with groups L and N,MWT was significantly decreased at T1-4 and TWL was significantly shortened at T1-4 in group M ( P ＜ 0.05).Pathological injury was significantly reduced in group M as compared with groups L and N.ConclusionT-type calcium channel is involved in the spinal neurotoxicity of IT lidocaine in rats.

Objective To explore the clinical features of methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) in children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit, to help improve our understanding of MMA. Methods The clinical data of 21 patients with MMA admitted to our PICU from December 2012 to August 2016 were analyzed. Diagnosis were confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, GC/MS. Results twenty-four of 158 suspected cases were confirmed as having organic acidemia diseases including 21 cases of MMA, one case of propionic acidemia, one case of urea cycle disorders, and one case of glutaric acidemia. The main clinical manifestations were feeding difficulty, malnutrition (13 cases), developmental retardation (12 cases), lethargy (10 cases), tricuspid severe reflux and pulmonary hypertension (1 case), hydrocephaly (5 cases), muscular dystonia (three cases with hypertonia, and four with hypotonia), convulsion (7 cases), apnea, sobbing respiration (10 cases), chromatosis (6 cases), anemia (13 cases), edema (6 cases), thrombocytopenia (6 cases), hematuria and proteinuria (2 cases). Five cases gave up therapy before diagnosis was made. Sixteen cases received the treatment with Vitamin B12 and supplementation of L-carnitine. Seven cases gave up after treatment without effect or deterioration of condition. Eight cases were vitamin B12-responsive, and one case was vitamin B12-nonresponsive. The follow-up for a period ranging from three months to two years, among eight vitamin B12-responsive cases, 6 cases showed a favorable outcome with apparent improvement, one case had no symptom and one patient died from severe pneumonia. Vitamin B12-nonresponsive case was still alive. Conclusions The clinical manifestations of MMA are non-specific. Urine organic acid analysis is critical to early diagnosis of MMA in high-risk patients. Timely diagnosis and appropriate long-term treatment are essential to improve the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the neuroprotective effect of epigallocatechin gallate ( EGCG ) for PC12 cells induced by 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridinium ( MPP+ ) and activating nuclear factor-related factor 2 ( NRF2 ).Methods Well differentiated PC12 cells treated with MPP+ were used as the in vitro cell models,and PC12 cells were pretreated with different concentrations of EGCG.MTT assay was used to investigate the cell viability.Western blot was used to observe the expression of NRF2 in cells and distribution in the nucleus and the cytoplasm.Real-time PCR was used to observe the antioxidant enzymes,HO-1 and NQO1 mRNA expression.Results Pretreatment of PC12 cells with different concentrations of EG CG for an hour could restore cell viability.Western blot showed that expression of NRF2 in cells treated with MPP+ for 24 hours was increased 148％ +5％ compared with the control group (t =6.102,P ＜0.01 ).The level of NRF2 in EGCG pretreated group was 188％ + 6％ compared with the control group(t =11.172,P ＜0.01 ).Moreover the NRF2 protein level in the nuclear was also increased.Western blot showed that the NRF2 protein level in the nuclear was 258％ +2％ compared with the control group (t =21.995,P ＜ 0.01 ).Further research found U 120,an inhibitor of ERK,could inhibit the effect of EGCG.The levels of NRF2 in both samples were 148％ ± 15％ and 158％ ± 1％ compared with their respective control groups(t =6.118,8.058,both P ＜0.01 ).In accordance with the NRF2 data,real-time PCR indicated that the levels of HO-1 and NQO1 mRNA expression increased obviously in the group pretreated with EGCG.Likewise,U120 could also inhibit HO-1 and NQO1 mRNA expression induced by EGCG.Conclusions EGCG can repair oxidative damage to PC12 cells induced by MPP+.The protective effect may be related through the ways to activate ERK-NRF2 and induce downstream of antioxidant enzyme expression,such as HO-1 and NQO1.

Objective To summarize the initial experience in adult-to-adult living donor liver transplantation(ALDLT),so as to improve the efficacy of ALDLT.Methods The clinical data of 31 adult patients who undelwent ALDLT from June 2006 to February 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Of all the patients,8 was with decompensated cirrhosis,7 with acute liver failure,12 with hepatocellular carcinoma,2 with purpura of liver,1 with hilar cholangiocarcinoma,and 1 with Wilson disease.The liver grafts included 25 right lobes with middle hepatic vein(MHV),3 right lobes without MHV,1 right lobe with MHV+left lateral lobe,1 right lobe with MHV+left lobe.The remaining 1 patient underwent auxiliary partial orthotopic liver transplantation with left lobe graft.Six post-transplantation complications occurred in 5 donors. Eleven post-transplantation complications occurred in 9 recipients,including 4 biliary complications,3 vascular complications,3 infection complications and 1 delayed healing of the incision.After ALDLT,2 recipients died of pulmonary infection and 1 of multiple aspergillus infection. Conclusions ALDLT has become an effective method to expand the source of liver grafts.Rational donor and recipient assessment,surgical procedure and postoperative management are key to ALDLT.

OBJECTIVE To explore the treatment measure of pulmonary infection after liver transplantation.METHODS The clinical data of 78 cases of pulmonary infection after liver transplantation in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.RESULTS The incidence of pulmonary infection in this group of patients was 48.8%.The mean onset time of the first pulmonary infection after operation was(9.56?5.53)days after surgery.Forty four patients were diagnosed as right pneumonia,14 as left pneumonia,and 20 bilateral pneumonia.Long operation time,mechanical ventilatory time,abdominal bleeding,intraoperative total fluid perfusion and renal dysfunction after liver transplantation were risk factors of pulmonary infection.87.2% Of these patients improved,and 12.8% died.CONCLUSIONS The mortality of pulmonary infection after liver transplantation is high.Bacteria and fungi are the major pathogens.The key of prevention and cure of pulmonary infection after liver transplantation wis included of cutting down operation time,lessening abdominal bleeding,controlling intraoperative fluid perfusion,extubating as soon as possible,protecting renal dysfunction and raising pathogeny to check.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of lamivudine on prophylaxis against hepatitis B virus(HBV) reinfection following orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT).METHODS The clinical data of 14 CLT recipients with HBV-related diseases received lamivudine(100mg/day) were retrospectively analyzed in our hospital.Hepatitis B serum markers,serum HBVDNA,and YMDD district variation were detected every two weeks.HBsAg and HBcAg in the liver specimens were examined by immunohistochemistry.Liver biopsy was conducted from the donor during operation and from the recipient postoperatively in a regular interval.RESULTS The reinfection took place in 4 patients and postoperatively(28.6%),HBV-DNA was transfered to the positive in 2 cases,and among them was 1 YMDD district produced and made a variation. Two cases with positive HBV-DNA before liver transplantation had higher HBV reinfection rate postoperatively.CONCLUSIONS Lamivudine monotherapy can effectively and definitely;preven HBV reinfection after liver transplantation HBV reinfection can produce YMDD district and make a variation again;HBV relevant diseases patient should negatively turn the HBV-DNA at the time of competent liver transplantation.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane on the expression of heparanase ( HPA) and fascin in lung carcinoma cells of mice. Methods Mouse LLC cells were inoculated in the culture plate. After being cultured for 24 h, the cells were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups using a random number table: control group ( group CC) , 1% sevoflurane group ( group Sev1 ) , 2% sevoflurane group ( group Sev2 ) , and 3% sevoflurane group ( group Sev3 ) . Cells in Sev1-3 groups were exposed to 1%, 2% and 3% sevoflurane, respectively, for 4 h, while cells in group CC were not exposed to sevoflurane, and all the cells were then cultured for another 24 h in an incubator. The invasion of cells was determined by Transwell invasion assay, and the invaded cells were counted. The migration of cells was determined by wound healing assay, and cell migration rates were calculated. The expression of HPA and fascin in cells was detected by Western blot. Results Compared with group CC, the number of invaded cells and cell migration rates were gradually decreased, and the expression of HPA and fascin was gradually down?regulated with increasing concentrations of sevoflurane in Sev1-3 groups. Conclusion The mechanism through which sevoflurane inhibits the metastasis of mouse lung carcinoma cells is associated with down?regulated expression of HPA and fascin.

Objective To evaluate the role of T?type calcium channels in up?regulation of spinal Ca2+∕calmodulin?dependent protein kinase Ⅱ ( CaMKⅡ) expression in rats with neuropathic pain. Meth?ods Forty?eight male Sprague?Dawley rats, weighing 230-270 g, in which intrathecal catheters were suc?cessfully implanted, were divided into 4 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table: sham opera?tion group (group S), neuropathic pain group (group NP), normal saline group (group NS), and T?type calcium channel blocker mibefradil group ( group M ) . The model of neuropathic pain was established by chronic compression of the dorsal root ganglion ( DRG) . Normal saline 20μl and mibefradil 200μg ( dilu?ted to 20μl in normal saline) were injected intrathecally at 5 days after compression of the DRG in NS and M groups, respectively. Before intrathecal catheter implantation ( T1 ) , before compression of the DRG ( T2 ) , at 5 days after compression of the DRG and before intrathecal administration ( T3 ) , and at 30, 60, 120 and 240 min after intrathecal administration ( T4?7 ) , the mechanical paw withdrawal threshold ( MWT) and thermal paw withdrawal latency ( TWL) were measured. The rats were sacrificed after the last measure?ment of the pain threshold at T7 , and the lumbar enlargement segments of the spinal cord were harvested for determination of CaMKⅡ expression by Western blot. Results Compared with group S, the MWT was significantly decreased, and TWL was significantly shortened at T3?7 , and the expression of spinal CaMKⅡ was significantly up?regulated in NP and M groups (P<0.05). Compared with group NP, the MWT wassignificantly increased, and TWL was significantly prolonged at T4?6, and the expression of spinal CaMKⅡwas significantly down?regulated in group M (P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the parame?ters mentioned above in group NS (P>0.05). Conclusion T?type calcium channels are opened, the intra?cellular free calcium ion concentrations are increased, and activated spinal CaMKⅡ is involved in the de?velopment of neuropathic pain in rats.
