OBJECTIVE: To study the possible pathway of the effect of musk on brain disorder, distributing into the brain through blood brain barrier. METHODS: We used the musk ketone (muscone), a main composition of musk, to inject through the tail vein of the rats into the blood and took the brain and other organs at different times to make samples. Then gas chromatography was used to measure the distribution of muscone in the brain and other organs. RESULTS: Muscone could pass through the normal rat's blood brain barrier into the brain and soon reached the highest peak and remained in higher concentration, and more slowly metabolized as compared with other organs. CONCLUSION: Musk distributing into the brain through blood brain barrier provides the basis for its effect in treating brain disorders. Chromatography is an effective method to study the active composition of Chinese herbal medicine distributing through the blood brain barrier into the brain.

Objective Beagle dogs were subjected to hemorrhagic shock plus resuscitation and endotoxiemia (two-hit) to set up multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) model. In the study, this model can be used to monitor the responses of organ compensation and in compensation. Method Seven male Beagle dogs, weight ( 15 ± 2) kg, were provided by animal experiment centre of Xinjiang Medical University. MODS model was set up in 7 Beagle dogs. Hemorrhagic shock was produced according to the method of Wigger. After the resuscitation,Escherichia coli endotoxin was given via the femoral vein at a dose of 1.5 mg/kg. The criteria of MODS were defined as the presence of two or more of organ dysfunction. Clinical biochemical values were examined before making model and 0 h,3 h,6 h,9 h, 12 h after the establishment of model. The pathological change of the liver and the kidney were observed under the light microscopy. Results Significant differences of WBC,PaO2,LP,ALT, AST,Cr and BUN were observed after the establishment of model compared with those before the establishment of model ( P ＜ 0.05). Severe pathological lesions were observed in tissues of the liver and kidney. Conclusions Hemorrhagic shock and endotoxemia,a two-hit method, can be used to set up a delayed animal model for MODS to study the responses of organ dysfunction caused by ischemic and infectious diseases.

Objective To understand the functional exercise situation of the total hip arthroplasty(THA)patients in hospital. Methods Using self-designed functional exercise in patients with TKA outline the structure of observation, observation and collection of Orthopedic Surgery,71 cases (91 hips)received THA in patients with relevant information. Results After the former 3d,22.5% of patients did not exercise;After 14 d continuous passive motion (CPM) ,hip joint exercises were separately accounted for 71.8% and 81.7% ,and static muscle contraction,straight leg raising were accounted for 40.8 percent and 81.7 percent. The four exercise started lately, training methods were not standardized the patients, insisted on a shorter time;single-and double-hip replacement hip replacement in patients with Shimoji routing practice started time respectively, after (6.51 ± 2.90 ) d and ( 10.30 ± 3.21 ) d. In the functional exercise process,CPM was assisted by nurse,in other exercises was assisted by retaining workers and patients families. Conclusion THA patients hospitalized during the actual exercise of the number,frequency,timing and methods vary, nursing staff should be further explored how to ensure that patients really effective rehabilitation exercise to further enhance the effect of patients with rehabilitation exercises.

Objective To investigate the distribution pattern of the ADAS-Cog scores among the elderly in Beijing and to evaluate the application of ADAS-Cog in distinguishing patients with mild Alzheimer's disease (AD) and healthy elderly. Methods In total, 1616 healthy elderly (NC), 125 elderly patients with non-AD disorders (ND), and 310 patients with probable AD including 201 patients with mild AD and 109 patients with moderate AD (by NINCDS-ADRDA criteria) were recruited in the study and their cognitive performance was measured by the ADAS-Cog.Results In NC group, those older than 80 years and those with less than 5 years schooling scored highest. There was statistically significant correlation between the total scores of the ADAS-Cog and age and duration of schooling in NC group (F=14.34, 113.27,both P<0.01). No correlation was suggested in the mild AD group. The total score of ADAS-Cog was significantly associated with duration of schooling in both moderate AD and ND groups (F=4.18, 8.72, both P<0.05). The total score of ADAS-Cog differentiated the patients with mild AD from NC healthy elderly with AUC ranging from 0.69 to 0.82 in each subgroup by age, and from 0.75 to 0.88 in subgroups by durations of schooling with the highest AUC of 0.88 in the subgroup having more than 15 years of schooling education. Conclusions The ADAS-Cog score in the healthy elderly is significantly associated with age and duration of schooling education. The ADAS-Cog can be applied in the cognitive assessment of Chinese AD patients. The total score of ADAS-Cog could efficiently differentiate patients with mild AD from healthy elderly, especially in subjects with higher education level.

Objective To observe the effect of Wnt/β-catenin pathway on proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) using the glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β)-targeting RNAi recombinant adenovirus vector. Methods Homologous recombination and cloning techniques were used to construct RNAi recombinant adenoviral expressive vectors specific to GSK-3β. Then, the adenovirus plasmids was transfected into HEK 293A cells to produce adenovirus and amplify the adenoviral stock. Plaque forming assay was used to titer the adenoviral stock. The GSK-3β and β-catenin protein expressions were detected by Western blot and immunohistochemistry. The proliferation of HUVEC was detected with MTr assay. Results The RNAi adenovirus vectors specific to GSK-3β were successfully produced with high titer. The expression of GSK-3β protein in HUVEC could be down-regulated efficiently by the RNAi adenovirus, along with increased β-catenin protein expression. The proliferation of HUVEC was significantly increased (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) after infected with GSK-3β RNAi recombinant adenovirus for 3, 5, 7 days. Conclusion RNAi adenovirus is an important tool that can inhibit the expression of GSK-3β efficiently, along with increased β-catenin protein expression. Up-regulating of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway might play an important role in the proliferation of HUVEC.

Objective To investigate the effects of continuous vennvenous haemodiafihration(CVVHDF)on major organ fimction and plasma cytokine levels in MODS dogs.Methods Fifteen Beagle dogs were subjected to hemorrhagic shock plus resuscitation and endotoxemia to establish MODS model,then dogs were randomly divided into 2 groups:CVVHDF group(n=8)and MODS group without CVVHDF (n=7).CVVHDF was performed for 12 hours after endotoxin injection in CVVHDF group dogs.Serum ALT,AST,Scr,BUN and blood gas were routinely measured,and plasma TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10 coneentrations were measured by ELISA at different time points. Results Plasma levels of IL-6 and IL-10 were significantly decreased in the CVVHDF group at 3 h,6 h,9 h and 12 h after endotoxin injection as compared with MODS group (P＜0.01).TNF-α levels were similar in both groups(P＞0.05).IL-6 and TNF-α were detected in the ultrafihrate.The sieving coefficients (SC) for IL-6 and TNF-α were 0.27±0.13 and 0.1±0.1 respectively.IL-10 could not be detected in the ultrafiltrate.In CVVHDF group,function of major organs was improved.The beneficial effect of CVVHDF on the hypotension of MODS dogs was particularly striking at 6 h,9 h,and 12 h alter endotoxin injection(P＜0.01).Mean PaO2 in CVVHDF groups at 3 h,6 h,9 h,and 12 h after endotoxin injection was significantly higher than that in MODS group(P＜0.01). Conclusion CVVHDF effectively removes IL-6 and IL-10from the cireulation,attennates endotoxin-induced hypotension and improves arterial oxygenation in MODS dogs.
