Dl-tetrahydropalmatine (THP) 5 ~ 15 mg ? kg-1 iv markedly reduced the incidences of cardiac arrhythmias and myocardial lipidperoxide content after reperfusion of the is-chemic myocardium in rats. In isolated rat ventricular muscles, THP 1,3 and 10 ?mol?L-1 shifted the concentration-effect curves for phenylephrine to the right unparally, together with decreasing their maximal responses,exhibiting a non-competed antagonistic action. It was also found that THP 10 ?mol?L-1was able to reduce the amplitude of delayed afterdepolar-izations and to stop triggered activity and/or ab-normal automatic activity induced by reoxygena-tion of hypoxic myocardium in isolated ventricular muscles of guinea pig. These results suggest that the protective effects of THP might be attributed, at least in part, to the depression of delayed afterdepolarizations and the prevention of oxygen free radical injury without the involvement of the cardiac ?1-adrenoceptors.

Objective To investigate the application of hepatitis C virus RNA and antibody detection method in population screening.Methods The colloidal gold rapid test method and the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)were adopted to detect hepatitis C virus (HCV)antibodies,and the real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR)was adopted to detect HCV-RNA viral load.Results (1)Among 539 samples,266 cases were antibody negative and 263 cases were antibody positive.(2)Among 67 cases in the HCV-RNA viral load <103 IU/mL group,60 cases were HCV antibody positive by ELISA and 30 cases were HCV antibody positive by colloidal gold rapid test.Among 208 cases in the HCV-RNA viral load ≥ 103 IU/mL,199 cases were antibody positive by ELISA,but only 181cases were antibody positive by the colloidal gold rapid method.Other 6 cases of were 2 kinds of antibody negative had the HCV-RNA viral load ≥ 103 IU/mL.(3)208 cases of HCV-RNA viral load ≥ 103 IU/mL sample were divided in-to four groups.GGT,ALT and AST were statistically significantly different P <0.05),while ALB and S/CO values hadno statisti-cal difference (P >0.05).Conclusion In order to reduce the missed diagnosis rate and diagnose hepatitis C as early as possible,the above laboratory detection methods should be jointly applied and the comprehensive analysis should be conducted in population screening.
