The effects of cyanide poisoning on the contractibility of the cardiac muscle were observed after the dogs were infused intravenously with a lethal dose of NaCN (2.5 mg/kg) within 2 minutes through a cannulated femoral vein. Heart rate (HR) , left ventricular pressure (LVP) , the largest changing rate of LVP (LVP?dp/dtmax), cardiac muscle contractibility (CMC) , the largest changing rate of CMC (CMC?dc/dtmax) , and ECG changes were recorded. It was found that there was an initial excitatory response of cardiac functions in the first minute of NaCN infusion, and then a drastic cardiac failure occurred, which resulted in the rapid death of the dogs within 10 minutes after NaCN administration. The changes of myocardial contractibility were slower than those of .other cardiac parameters, which implies that cyanide can exert an excitation on the myocardium initially. Our results indicate that the effects of cyanide on myocardial contractibility may be one of the important factors to induce serious arrhythmia,which in turn results fatal cardiac failure.

Objective To investigate the role of dendritic cell (DC) subsets and T cell subpopulations expressing different intracellular cytokines in the pathogenesis of syphilis. Methods Flow cytometry was utilized to measure the frequencies of peripheral DC subsets and IFN-γ-, IL-2-, IL-4-, IL-10-expressing peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subpopulations in 20 patients with syphilis before and after therapy, and in 15 healthy human controls. Results The frequency of CD11c+ DC was significantly lower in pretreated patients than that in treated patients (P<0.01), but higher than that in the normal controls (P<0.05), and the same was true for the frequency of IFN-γ-expressing T cells, IL-2-expressing T cells, and IL-12-expressing T cells. By contrast, a decrease was noticed in the frequency of IL-4-expressing T cells and IL-10-expressing T cells in pretreated patients compared with that in the normal controls. Furthermore, in patients with syphilis, the frequency of CD11c+ and CD123+ DC was unrelated to the percentage of IFN-γ-expressing and IL-12- expressing T cells (both P>0.05). Conclusions IFN-γ, IL-2 and IL-12 may exert an immunoregnlatory effect in the eliminating of Treponema pallidum, whereas IL-4 and IL-10 may perform an imrnunoinhibitory effect.

AIM To invesigate the effect of subarachnoid transplantation of APA microcapsulized bovine chromaffin cells (BCCs) on mRNA expression for Nav1.8 in the dorsal root ganglia neurons(DRG) of rats with neuropathic pain by means of in situ hybridization. METHODS SD rats were randomly divided into four groups of five. Normal rats were used as control group (group C). Rats with right sciatic nerve been ligated were used as CCI group. Five to six hundred empty APA microcapsules(group APA) or 5?10 6 APA microcapsulized BCCs (group APA-BCCs) were grated into subarachnoid space of CCI rats 7 days after operation. Allodynia and hyperalgesia were measured by Von-Frey filaments and CO 2 laser 7 days after transplantation. DRG in lumbar four and five was taken out and 15 ?m freezing sections were made 7 days after tansplantation. Sections was used to detect mRNA expression for TTX-resistent Na + Nav1.8 by in situ hybridization with Dig-labeled RNA probe. RESULTS The mRNA hybridization signal for Nav1.8 in DRG of group CCI and group APA was lower than that of group C. The expression of mRNA for Nav1.8 in DRG was higher in group APA-BCCs than that in group CCI and group APA with abatement of allodynia and hyperalgesia. There was no difference in the mRNA hybridization signal for Nav1.8 in DRG between group APA-BCCs and group C. CONCLUSION mRNA expression for Nav1.8 in DRG of CCI ratswas down-regulated. APA microcapsulized BCCs grafting can reverse the down-regulation of mRNA expression for Nav1.8 in DRG of CCI rats. Restoration of mRNA expression for Nav1.8 in DRG contributes to the analgesic effect of subarachnoid transplantation of APA microcapsulized BCCs.

BACKGROUND: The preparation and antibacterial activity of metal ionic zirconium phosphates has been systemically investigated now, but the applications are limited owing to the discoloration or the low antibacterial activity. Here we prepared new antibacterial agents of quaternized zirconium phosphates by introducing quaternary ammonium salt bactericidal agent with high-effective, broad-spectrum and low-toxic into sodium zirconium phosphate through an ion-exchange method.OBJECTIVE: To explore the component structure and antibacterial activity of quaternized zirconium phosphates.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An in vitro observational experiment was performed at Research Laboratory of Department of Chemistry, Jinan University from June to August 2009.MATERIALS: Quaternized zirconium phosphates were prepared by introducing dodecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride into sodium zirconium phosphate through an ion-exchange method.METHODS: The mol ratios of quaternary ammonium cations to cation exchange capacity of sodium zirconium phosphate in reaction solutions were 0.25: 1,0.5: 1, 1.0: 1, and 1.5 : 1, respectively, and four kinds of quaternized zirconium phosphates containing different contents of quaternary ammonium cations (QZrP-1, QZrP-2, QZrP-3, QZrP-4) were prepared through an ion-exchange method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The component structure and heat resistance of samples were measured by using an IR spectrometer, an elemental analyzer and a thermal analyzer, respectively. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) and minimal bactericidal concentrations (MICs) of the samples against Escherichia coli (E. co/i) and Staphylococci aureus (S. aureus) were estimated by a tube broth method.RESULTS: Quaternized zirconium phosphates were prepared, and the quaternary ammonium cation content increased with increasing the concentration of quaternary ammonium cations in reaction solution. The mass fraction of quaternary ammonium cations of QZrP-1, QZrP-2, QZrP-3, and QZrP-4 was 3.70%, 5.00%, 6.96%, and 10.01%, respectively. The onset temperatures of the decomposition for quaternary ammonium cations in quaternized zirconium phosphates were all higher than 345 °C, and they were preferable thermal stability. The antibacterial activity was higher when the quaternary ammonium cation content of quaternized zirconium phosphates increased. For quaternized zirconium phosphates QZrP-3 containing 6.96% mass fraction of quaternary ammonium cations, showed excellent antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus.CONCLUSION: Quaternized zirconium phosphates QZrP-3 containing 6.96% mass fraction of quaternary ammonium cations,exhibited excellent thermal stability and antibacterial activity.

Objective:To develop a novel posterior circulation score (PCS) based on pretreatment diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for predicting futile recanalization (FR) of acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) after endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:A prospectively registered consecutive cohort of BAO patients treated with EVT in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University during a six-year period was reviewed. This novel DWI-based PCS (DWI-PCS) was calculated according to the characteristics of acute infarction at four sites (pons, midbrain, thalamus and cerebellum), with a normal score of 0 point and a full score of 16 points. FR was defined as the occurrence of poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale score>3) at 90 days despite successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction ≥ 2b) at final angiogram after EVT. The independent association of DWI-PCS with FR was evaluated by multivariable Logistic regression, and the predictive discrimination of DWI-PCS was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Additionally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR in different subgroups stratified by age, time window, stroke severity and etiology were explored.Results:Of 109 patients in this study, 48 (44.0%) suffered from FR. The multivariable Logistic analysis showed that DWI-PCS was significantly associated with FR (adjusted OR=1.31, 95% CI 1.07-1.62, P=0.01). The ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the area under the curve of DWI-PCS for predicting FR was 0.74 (95% CI 0.65-0.83), and the optimal cut-off value was ≥ 3 points (sensitivity 0.75, specificity 0.66, accuracy 0.70). Finally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR were not found to be different across all subgroups ( P>0.10 for all interactions). Conclusions:The novel DWI-PCS may be a valid and reliable predictor of FR in BAO patients treated with EVT. Nevertheless, external validation with blinded outcome is still needed to confirm its performance before clinical application.
