Journal of Clinical Otorhinolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery 2009;(20):923-925,929
Objective:To detect the mucin gene (MUC2,MUC5AC,MUC5B,MUC18 and MUC19)expression in the nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis (AR)and the normal nasal mucosa in human. To investigate the role and clinical significance of mucin gene in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps and AR patients .Method:We obtained samples from 35 cases of nasal polyps,18 cases of AR inferior turbinate and 18 cases of simple nasal septum deviation inferior turbinate. Specimens were analyzed with RT-PCR and Real-time FQ-RT-PCR.Result:The results of RT-PCR and FQ-RT-PCR showed that the expression of MUC5AC,MUC5B in nasal polyps and AR patients was significantly higher than that in normal mucosa(P<0.05). The expression of MUC5AC,MUC5B in nasal polyps was not significantly different from that in AR patients(P>0.05). The expression of MUC2, MUC18 in nasal polyps and AR was not significantly different from that in normal mucosa(P>0.05). And the results of RT-PCR for MUC19 expression in AR was higher than that in nasal polyps group and normal group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion:MUC5AC and MUC5B are highly expressed in epithelium of human nasal polyps and AR, and they take part in mucus over-secretion in nasal polyps and AR.The expression of MUC19 in AR was higher than that in nasal polyps group and normal group. It indicates that the secretion of MUC19 in allergic rhinitis was on high level. There was no difference of the expression of MUC2 and MUC18 in nasal polyps group, AR group and in normal group.

Objective: To observe the effects of mild moxibustion on angiogenesis and microcirculation in wound repair after operation of anal fistula, and to explore the mechanism of action. Methods: Seventy-two SD male rats were made to bear an "acute, open, bleeding, infected" wound surface and were divided randomly into mild moxibustion group, microwave group and control group (24 rats per group). The wound surfaces of the treatment groups were treated for 15 min with mild moxibustion or microwave medical instrument from the first day after operation, and the control group was not given any treatment. At the first, third, seventh and fourteenth days after operation (1, 3, 7 and 14 days of treatment), six rats in each group were sacrificed after examining the blood flow of the wound surface, and the samples of granulation tissues were collected. The numbers of CD34 and positive expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in granulation tissues were detected. Results: In the early and middle stages of wound healing, mild moxibustion could obviously increase the expression of VEGF, the number of CD34, and the blood flow of the wound surface. And the expression of VEGF, the number of CD34, and the blood flow of the wound surface began to increase at the third day, and reached the peak level at the seventh day, and then began to decrease. In the late stage of wound healing (day 14), mild moxibustion could decrease the expression of VEGF, the number of CD34, and decrease the blood flow of the wound surface. There were significant differences between the mild moxibustion group and the control group in the blood flow of the wound surface, the expression of VEGF and the numbers of CD34 in granulation tissues (P<0.05) after treatment, and except the number of CD34 at 14-day treatment, there were also differences between the mild moxibustion group and the microwave group. Conclusion: Mild moxibustion has better regulative actions on blood flow of the wound surface and the number of CD34 and positive expression of VEGF in granulation tissues, and can regulate microcirculation in wound surface and promote the wound healing.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol pretreatment on hippocampal monocyte chemotactic protein-1 ( MCP-1 ) and CC-chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) expression following forebrain ischemiarepcrfusion (I/R) in rats. Methods Twenty-four male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 8 each): group Ⅰ control; group Ⅱ I/R and group Ⅲ propofol pretreatment. Cerebral I/R was induced by clamping bilateral common carotid arteries for 10 min combined with hypotension ( MAP was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg) induced by exsanguinations in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ. In group Ⅲ propofol 50 mg/kg was injected into femoral vein immediately before cerebral ischemia. The animals were sacrificed at 6 h of reperfusion. Hippocampal tissue was obtained for detection of MCP-1 mRNA and CCR2 mRNA and their protein expression by RT-PCR and Western blot technique. Results I/R significantly increased the expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 in hippoeampal tissue as compared with control group. Propofol pretreatment significantly attenuated cerebral I/R induced increase in MCP-1 and CCR2 expression. Conclusion Propofol pretreatment can significantly inhibit forebrain I/R-induced hippocampal MCP-1 and CCP2 expression.

BACKGROUND: Amfetamine, one of the levarterenols, can improve the recovery of motor function of animals after cerebral ischemia. Chlorimipramine can inhibit the re-intake of 5-serotonin and levarterenol and improve the level of them in brain. OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of chlorimipramine on motor function of rats with focal cerebral ischemic injury.DESIGN: Randomized grouping and controlled animal study. SETTING: Neuropsychiatry Team of Aerial Clinical Medical Department of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. MATERIALS: The experiment was completed in the Morphological Laboratory of Aerial Aerospace Medical Department of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. All the 24 SD rats were divided into sham operation group, ischemia group and ischemic medication group with 8 in each group. Rats in ischemic medication group were perfused with 10 mg/kg chlorimipramine solution (2.5 g/L) once a day through mouth 24 hours after ischemia, and rats in sham operation group and ischemia group were perfused with the same volume of distilled water through mouth. METHODS: Middle cerebral artery (MCA) models of ischemia/reperfusion rats were established with inserted lining method. After modeling, the operations were performed as followed: ① holding test of net screen: Net screen was put horizontally, and then rats were put on it. One side of the screen was raised gradually; then it was turned over 125° within 2 s, and maintained at this placement. Time of holding rats on net screen was recorded. ② Test of struggling to tear off rubberized cloth: 0.5 cm2 medical rubberized cloth was adhered to the ventral of anterior claws of rats, and then rats were sent to the observing box to record the time of tearing off rubberized cloth. 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after operation were the observing time points. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Times of holding rats on the net screen and tearing off the rubberized cloth of rats with focal cerebral is chemia.RESULTS: ① Time of muscular strength test of rats in ischemia group and ischemic medication group was shorter than that of rats in sham operation group, and there was significant difference [3 days after operation:(54±4), (20±5) and (21±4) s in sham operation group, ischemia group and ischemic medication group respectively, P < 0.01]. Holding time was longer in ischemic medication group than that in ischemia group, and there was significant difference [28 days after operation: (51±5) and (54±5) s in ischemia group and ischemic medication group respectively, P < 0.05]. ②Time of tearing off the rubberized cloth was longer in ischemia group and ischemic medication group than that in sham operation group, and there was significant difference [3 days after operation: (47±9), (188±20) and (172±22) s in sham operation group, ischemia group and ischemic medication group respectively, P < 0.01]. The time in ischemic medication group was shorter than that in ischemia group, and there was no significant difference (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: Chlorimipramine has great effect on the recovery of muscular strength after focal cerebral ischemia, but has poor effect on sense and refined motor function, which is in coincidence with the poor recovery of refined motor function of limbs after hemiplegia.

Objective To investigate the effects of edaranvone on lung injury induced by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats. Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly assigned to one of 4 groups ( n = 6 each): group Ⅰ sham operation (group S); group Ⅱ myocardial I/R and group Ⅲ and Ⅳ different doses of edaravone ( group E1, E2 ). The animals were anesthetized, intubated and mechanically ventilated. In group Ⅱ-Ⅳ myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of left anterior descending coronary artery for 45 min followed by 3 h reperfusion. In group Ⅲ and Ⅳ edavarone 3 and 10 mg/kg was administered via right femoral vein at 1 min before reperfusion respectively. The animals were sacrificed by exsanguination at the end of 3 h reperfusion. Blood was collected for determination of serum CK-MB activity and total protein content. The left lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of protein content. Pulmonary permeability index (PPI) was calculated. The lung tissue was obtained for determination of BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression. Results The serum CK-MB activity, PPI,BD-2 mRNA and protein and TNF-α expression were significantly higher in group I/R, E1 and E2 than in group S,but significantly lower in group E1 and E2 than in group I/R and in group E2 than in group E1. Conclusion Edaravone can reduce myocardial I/R-induced lung injury by scavenging oxygen free radicals and inhibiting inflammatory response of lung tissues in rats.
