In order to investigate the significance of prostacyclin and throm-boxere A2 in the pathegertsis of ischemic renal injury,the level of 6-keto-PGF1? and TXB2 in the plasma and the dissected slices of the kidneys of the rabbits with iscbemic renal injury was determined with RIA,It was found that 6-keto-PGF1? increased significantly in the outer and inner medullae,TXB2 increased significantly in all the renal slices,and the 6-keto-PGF1?/TXB2 ratio decreased significantly in the outer cortex 3 hours after reperfusion,The findings suggest that the imbalance between the synthesis of prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 might be resporsible for the decline and redistribution of renal blood flow in the early stage of acute ischemic renal failure.

Objective To study the effect of synthetic HLA-derived peptide (P), HLA-B*2702.75-84, on the mean survival time (MST) of cardiac allografts in mice.Methods NIH mice cardiac allografts were heterotopically transplanted into the posterior of Balb/c ears. The HLA-derived peptide in combination with a subtherapeutic dose of CsA were perioperatively administrated. The pulsation of the cardiac allograft observed under the operating microscope was considered as the indication of the cardiac allograft surviving time or rejection. Results MST was ( 7.5? 0.5) days in untreated control group, ( 8.5? 1.5) days in CsA group and ( 7.0? 1.5) days in control peptide or P groups respectively, whereas MST was ( 26.5? 3.5) days in experimental group.Conclusion The synthetic HLA-derived peptide combined with subtherapeutic CsA can significantly prolong cardiac allograft survival in mice as compared with control groups.

Objective To investigate the effects of RDP1258 on survival of rat cardiac allograft. Methods RDP1258 was synthesized and the model of rat heart abdominal transplantation was established. Animals were divided into four groups. Group 1 received no immunosuppression. Group 2 received CsA alone. Group 3 received RDP1258 alone. Group 4 received RDP1258 and subtherapeutic CsA. In all cases RDP1258 was administrated intraperitoneally and CsA was gavaged. Light and electron microscopic examinations were taken . Transplanted hearts were monitored daily by direct palpation. Results The purity of synthesized RDP1258 was over 95 % and the molecular weight was in accord with theoretical value. The histology and the ultrastructure changed little in grafts in group 3 and group 4. Survival of rat cardiac allograft was significantly prolonged in group 4. Conclusions RDP1258 can suppress acute rejection. Perioperative administration of RDP1258 in combination with CsA can significantly prolong survival of rat cardiac allograft.

Objective To observe the immunosuppression function of a novel HLA-derived peptide, RDP1258, after rat renal transplantation in vivo.Methods Peptides were synthesized by Fmoc chemistry method. The rat renal heterotopic transplantation model (n=32) was established. The allograft rats were divided into 4 group: group A (n=8) receiving subtherapeutic CsA+RDP1258 peptide; group B (n=8) receiving RDP1258 alone; group C (n=8) receiving subtherapeutic CsA alone; and group D (n=8) receiving no immunosuppression. The renal allograft survival days of receptor rats were observed. Serum creatinine was measured and color Doppler flow imaging was checked. Renal tissues were harvested for light microscopic examination. The immunologic tolerance status of rat renal allografts was detected by MLR of 60th day receptor rat spleen cells cultured with the donor spleen cells and the third party.Results The allograft survival time in groups A, B, C and D were ( 63.4?30.6)days, (18.3?7.3)days, (16.9?6.4)days and (9.4?2.6)days, with the difference being significant between group A and other three groups. The results of MLR revealed that a hyporesponsiveness to donor occurred while the normal reaction to the third parity was retained.Conclusion A novel HLA derived peptide therapy combined with a sub-therapeutic dose of CsA significantly prolonged allograft survival days, and the mechanism might be that RDP1258 induced a donor-specific immunologic tolerance status in the recipients.

Methods:A peptide derived from HLA,RDP1258,was chemically synthesized.The effects of the peptide on alloreactive cytotoxic activities of rat splenocytes were observed using 3H-TdR method.The heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) activity was analyzed by the enzyme chemistry method.Results:The results showed that the synthetic HLA-derived peptide can obviusly inhibit the proliferation of rat splenocytes and the peptide inhibited HO-1 activty in a dose-dependment manner in vitro.Conclusion:HO-1 might participate in the RDP1258 inhibiting the proliferation of rat splenocytes induced by mitogen and isoantigen.

Objective To explore the management of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) .Methods The clinical data of 26 patients with AAAs were reviewed retrospectively. Results In the 26 cases,dissection and true aneurysms were found in 3 and 21 respectively, 1 AAA ruptured followed by a false aneurysm formation,and 1 involved duodenojajunary curve to form an aorto intestinal fistul. The lesions involved the renal artery in 3, below renal artery in 23; AAA extended to both common iliac arteries in 12, to both common iliac arteries and one or both internal iliac artery in 5,to both or one common and ,lexternal.internal arteries in 2; Emergency operation was done on 3 patients, elective operation on 14, endoluminal treatment in 7 and conservative treatment in 2. Three cases developed mild postoperative complications. Operative mortality was 3.8% ( 1 case ). 22 patients were followed up for 3 month to 4 years, and living well. Conclusions Endolumianal treatment is the first choice for the AAAs patients . However, the traditional operation is still very important and effective for the patient who can not be treated by endoluminal treatment,especially with improvement of the surgical skills.

Objective To investigate the immunosuppression function of a novel HLA derived peptide, RDP1258, and its mechanisms. Methods A peptide derived from HLA, RDP1258, was chemically synthesized by artificial solid phase synthesis. Effects of the peptide on alloreactive cytotoxic activity of rat spleen cells and heme oxygenase 1 (HO 1) activity were observed using 3H TdR method and enzyme chemistry method, respectively. Results The synthetic HLA derived peptide could obviously inhibit the proliferation of rat spleen cells and mixed lymphocyte reaction, and reduce HO activity in a dose dependent manner in vitro . Conclusion RDP1258 can significantly inhibit the proliferation of rat spleen cells induced by mitogen and isoantigen possibly by means of affecting HO 1 activity.

Objective To explore the effect of endovascular treatment on Stanford type B aortic dissection. Methods The clinical data of 12 cases of Stanford type B aortic dissection were analysed retrospectively. Results All the cases were male, the age ranged from 40-68 years with a mean of 52.1 years. Among the 12cases, 10 patients underwent endoluminal treatment, the instant technique was successfully performed in 10 patients. Endoleak happened in 1 case because of the stent-graft deployment, but automatically stopped 3 days later. In other 9 patients, Angiography after the operation showed that all the rupture areas were sealed completely, and the celiac arteries blood supply were recovered via the true lumen and no blood stream was shown in the false cavity. 2 patients received conservative treatment died, one died of failure of respiration and another died of rupture of the dissection. Conclusions In the treatment of Stanford B type aortic dissection, if the selection of the patient is correct, endoluminal technique is much simple, safe, less trauma, and less complications as compared to the traditional operation, and it can also shorten the hospital stay of the patient. Conservative treatment can not control the development of the diseases, and easily results in death of the patient.

Objective To explore the surgical management for acute cases of aortic diseases. Methods The clinical data of 18 acute cases of thoracoabdominal aortic diseases were analysed retrospectively. Results This study included ruptured thoracoabdominal aortic dissection of 15 cases and open wound of the abdominal aorta of 3 cases. There were 15 males and 3 females, with mean age of 42.7 years. Eight patients were received open emergent operation, and the other 10 cases underwent endovascular procedure. The mortality was 11.1% (2/18). Follow-up from 2 months to 3 years revealed all patients in a good condition. Conclusions In cases of emergent aortic diseases, endoluminal technique is simple, mini-invasive and safe. However, open surgery is still mandatory and effective especially when endovascular procedure is not indicated or failed.
