Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2014;33(4):584-591
AIM: To verify the neuroprotective effect and optimize the therapeutic dose and time window of picroside Ⅱon cerebral ischemic injury in rats .METHODS:The forebrain ischemia model was established by the method of bilateral common carotid artery occlusion ( BCCAO ) .The successful model rats were randomly divided into 16 groups according to orthogonal design and treated by intraperitoneal injection of picroside Ⅱat different ischemic time poinis and different doses .The changes of the nerve fiber myelin were observed by fast green staining .The immunohistochemical assay and Western blotting were used to quantitatively and qualitatively determine the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP). The mRNA level of MBP in the brain tissues was tested by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).RE-SULTS:Picroside Ⅱ increased the expression of MBP and decreased demyelination after cerebral ischemic injury .The best therapeutic time window and dose were:(1) ischemia for 2.0 h with picrosideⅡat dose of 10 mg/kg according to the results of fast green staining;(2) ischemia for 2.0 h with the dose of 10 mg/kg according to the results of immunohisto-chemical assay;(3) ischemia for 2.0 h with the dose of 10 mg/kg according to the analysis of Western blotting;(4) is-chemia for 1.5 h with the dose of 20 mg/kg according to the detection of RT-PCR.CONCLUSION:Given the principle of the lowest therapeutic dose with the longest time window , the optimized therapeutic dose and time window for rat cerebral ischemic injury is intraperitoneal injection of picroside Ⅱat the doses of 10~20 mg/kg and the time window of ischemia for 1.5~2.0 h.

Objective; To investigate the stress distribution in implant-bone interface with different pitches by three-dimension finite element analysis method in order to decide the best design of thread parameters for stress distribution. Methods: Built three-dimension finite element models of partial mandible and dental implant with superstructure. The stress distributions in bone and three kinds of implants whose pitches were 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0 mm respectively, under axial and oblique 45 degree to axle concentrated load. Data were analyzed by Cosmos/works software. Results;The maximal Von-Mises stress, tensile stress and compressive stress of implant with 0.8 mm pitch were lower than others, the stress distribution was even. The stresses in the same model under oblique load were much higher than those under axial load. The stress concentrated more on implant neck, upper part of cortical bone and the lowest thread on implant. Conclusion; The pitch of implant has effect on stress distribution in implant-bone interface and the transmission of occlusal force. The lower threads on implant should be cut to avoid the concentration of stress, and the non-axial force should be reduced as possible as we can or avoided when we design and make implant denture.

The present paper is aimed to study the preparation and application of individual artificial bone of carbon/carbon composites. Using computer tomography images (CT), we acquired a three-dimensional image. Firstly, we described bone contour line outlined with manual and automatic method by the binary volume data. Secondly, we created 3D object surface information by marching cubes. Finally, we converted this information to non-uniform rational B-spine (NURBS) by using geomagic software. Individual artificial bone with carbon/carbon composite was prepared through the CNC Machining Center. We replaced the humeral head of the tested rabbit, and then observed the effects of implantation in neuroimaging and pathological section. Using this method, we found that the bone shape processed and bone shape replaced was consistent. After implantation, the implant and the surrounding bone tissue bound closely, and bone tissue grew well on the surface of the implant. It has laid a sound foundation of the preparation using this method for individual artificial bone of carbon/carbon composite material.

Objective To explore the effects of DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin on insulitis of NOD mice and the potential mechanism. Methods 223-month-old female NOD mice were randomly divided into Sitagliptin(Si-ta)group(n=11)gavaged with Sita(30 mg/Kg)daily for 12 weeks and control(Con)group with equal volume of normal saline(NS). The body weight,food-intake,water-intake and blood glucose were recorded weekly. Intraperi-toneal glucose tolerance test(IPGTT)was performed at the end of treatment and the blood sample was collected. Then mice were execute. The serum insulin level was measured by ELISA. Pancreas morphology and insulitis were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The protein expression level of TLR4 ,MyD88 and NF-κB was analyzed by Western Blot. Results Compared with that of Con group ,the insulitis of Sita group was significantly alleviative(P < 0.05)and the serum insulin level was increased significantly(P < 0.05). The protein expression level of TLR4(P<0.05),MyD88(P<0.01)and NF-κB(P<0.05)in Sita group was significantly decreased. Conclusion Sitagliptin alleviates insulitis in NOD mice and increases the serum insulin level ,probably owing to the suppression of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.
