Objective To illustrate the relationship between the temporary alteration of renal functions of rats with obstructive jaundice due to ischemia reperfusion injury(RI) and lipid peroxidation and the expression of heat shock protein 70 in rat kidney. Methods Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups of sham operation group(S group), sham operation and renal RI group(SRI group), common bile duct ligation group(J group), common bile duct ligation and renal RI group(JRI group). One week after bile duct ligation, rat bilateral renal arteries were transiently occluded for 10 minutes. The variations of renal function were observed at different time phases after renal reperfusion. Simultaneously, the expression of heat shock protein 70 in kidney was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Results In JRI group, endogenous creatinine clearance rate(Ccr) decreased progressively along with the prolongation of the duration of reperfusion. In J and JRI groups, the level of malondealdehyde(MDA) in renal tissue increased but superoxide dismutase(SOD) decreased. In JRI group, the expression of heat shock protein 70 reached its peak at the 4th hour after reperfusion and began to decrease at the 12 th hour and became lowest at the 24 th hour. No expression of HSP70 was found in other groups. Conclusion The sensitivity of rat kidneys with obstructive jaundice to ischemia reperfusion injury is significantly elevated. Ischemia reperfusion injury, as well as lipid oxidative stress, may be involved in acute renal failure(ARF) after obstructive jaundice surgery. The expression of heat shock protein 70 is a protective response to RI.

Objective To investigate mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 and their signifi-cance in injured spinal cord after transplantation of activated microglia. Methods Wistar rat model of spinal cord injury was made by using modified Allen's method. Then, the activated microglia was trans-planted into spinal cord injury models tu detect mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 in the spinal curd. Results The mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 in control group were significantly lower than that in test group (P<0.05). Conclusion Transplantation of activated microglia to the impaired spinal cord in rats can increase the mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1. The up-regulated expres-sion of TGF-β1 in spinal cord may play a role in promoting the recovery of spinal cord, when the activated microglia may be the main saurce of TGF-β1.

And then, cultured bottle was maintained in water bath at 37℃ and performed with microwave radiation in dark chamber, whose reflectivity was about zero. It was regarded as radiation group, and the average power density of radiation was 30 mW/cm2; in addition, the duration of radiation was 30 minutes.Cells did not deal with microwave radiation were regarded as control group. Phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 was measured at 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours after radiation with immune coprecipitation-autoradiography technique and dealt with semi-quantitative analysis with gel scanning system. Cells in the control group were analyzed directly. ②Active analysis and expressional measurement of protein kinase C: Cells in the radiation group and the control group were dealt with the same cultured method, condition, radiation styles, dosage and environment as mentioned above. At 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours after radiation, cells were split to extract plasma and membrane protein. Furthermore, activity of protein kinase C was measured with r-32P-ATP labeled liquid scintillation spectrometer; gray value of protein strap was dealt with semi-quantitative analysis with gel scanning system; staining degree of plasma was observed after immunocytochemical staining of protein kinase C. In addition, cells in the control group were measured and observed directly.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 in radiation group and control group; ②Results of active analysis and expressional measurement of protein kinase C in radiation group and control group.RESULTS: ① Phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 in radiation group and control group: Gray value of NF-E2-related factor-2 was higher in radiation group than that in control group at 2, 4 and 8 hours after radiation.Phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 reached the peak at four hours after radiation. In addition, results of semi-quantitative scanning analysis showed that, at 2, 4 and 8 hours after radiation, phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 was increased 33%, 261% and 141% in radiation group as compared with that in control group,respectively (t = 2.974, 4.209, 4.047, P < 0.05), and then, fallen down to normal value 24 hours later. ② Results of active analysis and expressional measurement of protein kinase C in radiation group and control group: At 2, 4 and 8 hours after microwave radiation, expression of protein kinase C in radiation group was higher than that in control group,especially at the 4 hour. In addition, at 24 hours after radiation, expression of protein kinase C recovered the normal value. Results of immunocytochemical staining showed that staining of plasma was deeper in radiation group than that in control group at 4 hours after radiation. Moreover, results of r-32P-ATP labeled liquid scintillation spectrometer also suggested that, at 2, 4 and 8 hours after radiation, activity of protein kinase C was increased 36%, 93% and 47% in radiation group as compared with that in control group, respectively (t =2.801, 3.654, 3.035, P < 0.05). And then, activity of protein kinase C was decreased after 24 hours, otherwise, activity of protein kinase C reached the peak at 4 hours after radiation.CONCLUSION: Microwave radiation can strengthen the phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2 in vascular endothelial cells during a special period; meanwhile, it can also cause the increase of expression of protein kinase C.Time effect of activity of protein kinase C is coincidence with phosphorylation level of NF-E2-related factor-2.
