Aim To study the protective effects of allicin on acute cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury. Methods The model of cerebral ishemia-3 h/reperfusion-24 h was induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) in SD rats. Allicin(10,20 mg?kg -1) was administered once daily in rats:at 0 h of reperfusion. After 24 h reperfusion, the content of malondialdehyde(MDA),the activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),GSH and myeloperoxidase(MPO) in brain tissue,the content of NO in plasma were measured. Results Compared with vehicle group, the activity of SOD was increased from 205.87?16.52 to 259.77?19.65 and 284.54?21.79 by allicin 10,20 mg?kg -1; the MDA content was decreased from 38.69?0.10 to 28.68?1.37 and 20.97?0.44 respectively; the GSH content was increased from 28.31?0.64 to 36.19?1.12 and 47.96?0.44 respectively; the NO content was decreased from 29.7?0.49 to 27.38?1.46 and 23.00?0.71 respectively; the MPO content was decreased from 0.29?3.06?10 -2 to 0.26?2.13?10 -2 and 0.23?7.52?10 -2 respectively. Conclusion The protective effects of allicin on acute cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury may be related to increasing antioxidase activities,decreasing lipid peroxidative damage and inhibiting inflammation reaction.

Objective To investigate the role of angiogenesis and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the pathophysiology of adenomyosis of the uterus. Methods The study included 32 patients with histologically proven adenomyosis and 30 patients with asymptomatic leiomyoma of the uterus. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect VEGF expression in different parts of the uterus. A computerized morphometric study on the VEGF expression was performed. Results The VEGF H-Score of glandular cells in the endometrium of adenomyosis uterus [proliferative phase (9.6?1.4), secretory phase (11.7?1.6)] was much higher than that of leiomyoma uterus [proliferative phase (8.3?1.7),secretory phase (10.2?1.5)] (P0.05). The VEGF H-Score of myometrium around the ectopic lesions [proliferative phase (9.5?1.3), secretory phase (8.7?1.3)] was higher than that of normal myometrium [proliferative phase (4.8?1.9), secretory phase (4.5?1.4)] (P

Background The effects of Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) in grafting-related immune diseases have attracted more and more attention.Blocking TLR2 signal pathway can extend the survival time of heart and kidney grafts.However, the effects of anti-TLR2 monoclonal antibody on corneal graft have not been confirmed.Objective This study was to investigate the influence of anti-TLR2 monoclonal antibody on corneal graft survival in the rats received penetrating keratoplasty (PKP).Methods Allograft corneal transplantation was performed on the right eyes of 24 SPF female Wistar rats to establish PKP models,with 12 SD rats as donors.The model eyes were randomized into the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group and the model group.Anti-TLR2 monoclonal antibody of 15 μg/30 μl was subconjunctivally injected on day 0,2,4,6 and 8 following the modeling in the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group,and equal amount of normal saline was injected in the same way in the model group.The edema,transparency and neovascularization were observed under the slit lamp microscope after surgery, and rejection index (RI) was scored based on the criteria of Holland.Corneal tissue sections of the rats were prepared for the histopathological examination on day 9 and 15 after operation.The research protocol was approved by the Southern Medical University Ethics Committee.Results Mild corneal edema was found in the two groups 1-4 days after operation.A lot of new blood vessels, edema and opacification of corneas were seen in the model group 9-14 days after operation,but in the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group,corneal opacification was found 15 days after operation.The RI scores were significantly higher in the model group than those in the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group 5,9,15 days after operation (t=4.183,4.954,13.506;all at P＜0.05).The survival time in the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group was 15.5 days,with the 95％ confidence interval (CI) 14.9-16.1;while that in the model group was 9.5 days,with the 95％ CI 8.7-10.3, showing a significant difference between the two groups (Z =12.728,P =0.001).The corneal histopathological examination revealed that corneal stromal edema,infiltration of inflammatory cells and vascular lumen were more prominent 9 and 15 days after operation in the model group than those in the TLR2 monoclonal antibody group.Conclusions Anti-TLR2 monoclonal antibody can inhibit inflammatory response after allograft corneal transplantation and therefore extend the survival time of graft in rats.

Objective To observe and measure the Doppler sonographic features of benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms,which included morphology and hemodynamics of tumor angiogenesis,and to select the most significant features. Methods Ninety-five patients with one hundred and five ovarian tumors were examined preoperatively by power Doppler sonography to observe the morphology of tumor angiogenesis. The hemodynamic features of tumor angiogenesis referred for pulsed Doppler sonography evaluation were measured,which included peak systolic velocity(V PS ),end diastolic velocity(V ED ),mean flow velocity(V M),pulsatility index(PI),resistance index(RI) and diastolic notch. To assess the variables jointly,stepwise regression analysis was used to identify the group of features that allowed the best prediction of benignity versus malignancy. Results All Doppler features significantly associated with malignancy .The ROC curve of RI revealed that the cutoff of RI( 0.51 ) with the highest accuracy had a sensitivity of 98.0 % and specificity of 96.2 %.Conclusions RI was most significantly associated with malignancy. The combination of RI and gray-scale sonography can maximize the ability to discriminate between benign and malignant ovarian tumors.

Aim To investigate the effects of allicin on the proliferation and apoptosis of HL-60 cells,and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods The cell viability and colony formation were detected by MTT assay.Apoptotic cells were tested by means of TUNEL labeling.RT-PCR was used to analyze the bcl-2 mRNA expressions.Results HL-60 cell growth was significantly inhibited by allicin in dose and time dependent manners.Cell colony formation obviously decreased.The typical hypo-diploid pea J apoptotic peaJ appeared in each dose group.Apoptosis occured in a dose-dependent manner.And its later stages were identified by TUNEL labeling methods respectively,and bcl-2/bax was decreased.The expression of bcl-2 mRNA was down-regulated in a time-dependent manner after treatment with allicin at different time points.Conclusion Allicin effectively inhibits growth and induces apoptosis on HL-60 cells,which may be related with the down-regulation of expressions of bcl-2.

Aim To compare the different effect of intracarotid and intravenous injection of propofol on the neuronal apoptosis of hippocampus in rats undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods Fifty rats were randomly assigned to five groups. Shame group (Group Non-CPB,n=10); group cardiopulmonary bypass(group CPB,n=10);group intravenous injection of propofol 2 mg?kg -1?h -1 (group P_ 2V,n=10);group intravenous injection of propofol 10mg.kg -1?h -1 (group P_ 10V,n=10);group intracarotid injection of propofol 2 mg?kg -1?h -1 (group P_ 2a,n=10).Mean arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate(HR) were monitored. Changes of the neuronal apoptosis of hippocampus were observed with TUNEL staining, Bax and bcl-2 mRNA and protein expressions were measured by RT-PCR and Western blot. In addition,neuronal ultrastructures were observed. Results Neuronal apoptosis and changes of neuronal ultrastructures of hippocampus were attenuated in group P_ 2a and P_ 10V,but the apoptosis of neurons was not attenuated in group P_ 2v. Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA expression increased undergoing CPB. Bax mRNA expression decreased after CPB in group P_ 2a and P_ 10V. Bcl-2 mRNA expression increased in group P_ 2a and P_ 10V. But Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA expression in group P_ 2V was not significantly different compared with that of group CPB. Bcl-2 and Bax protein expression measured by Western blot showed the same trend with mRNA expressions. Compared with baseline values, MAP and HR in group P_ 2V and P_ 2a remained unchanged. But the MAP and HR in group P_ 10V changed compared with group CPB and baseline value.Conclusions intracarotid injection of propofol attenuated the injury of brain at a fraction of the intravenous dose and with less adverse systemic and cerebrovascular side effects.
