AIM: To establish the two-hit rat model with hemorrhage and lipopolysaccharide(LPS) and to study the effect of panaxadiol saponins(PDS) against acute lung injury.METHODS: Forty Wistar rats were divided randomly into 4 groups: sham operational group(S);two-hit groups with hemorrhagic shock-LPS(HL);dexamethasone pretreatment group(HLD) and PDS pretreatment group(HLP).The mean arterial blood pressure(MABP) was monitored dynamically by 4-channel physiological meter RM-6000,and pathological alteration of lung tissues was also observed.The levels of various serum enzymes,TNF-? and IL-6 were detected.RESULTS: MABP decreased in two-hit rat model with hemorrhage-LPS.The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase,alanine aminotransferase,alkaline phosphatase,lactate dehydrogenase,creatine kinase,TNF-? and IL-6 increased significantly.Severe inflammatory change of pulmonary interstitium in HL group was also observed.CONCLUSION: Endotoxin injection following hemorrhage can be used to establish the animal model of acute lung injury.Similar with dexamethasone,PDS prevents lung tissue from seriously damage through increasing MABP and decreasing the level of serum enzymes,TNF-? and IL-6 levels.

Objective To explore the effect of panaxadiols saponin (PDS) on the oxidative damage in lung tissue in hemorrhage-lipopolysaccharides (LPS) two hits rats. Methods Forty Wistar rats were divided randomly into 4 groups: sham operational group(S group); two hits groups with hemorrhage-LPS(HL group);dexamethasone preventive therapy group (HLD group) ;panaxadiol saponins preventive therapy group(HLP group). The rats were made first-hit by hemorrhagic shock,LPS were administered intraperitoneally to make endotoxic shock and induce two hits in rats,then the model of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by two hits had been built up successfully. NO-2/NO-3,MDA content and NOS,iNOS,SOD activities were measured by 722S spectrophotometer. Results The results of pathological observation showed that there was obvious inflammatory reaction in lung tissues after two-hits,and the structure was destroied.Compared with HL group,the inflammatory reaction was reduced in HLD group and HLD group.NOS,iNOS activities and NO-2/NO-3,MDA contents were increased significantly,and SOD activity was significantly lower in HL group compared with S group(P

AIM: To investigate the role of intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in the regulation of calcium-activated chloride (ClCa) channels in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) of rats under normoxic, acute and chronic hypoxic conditions. METHODS: Acute hypoxia-induced contraction was observed in rat pulmonary artery by using routine blood vascular perfusion in vitro. The fluorescence Ca2+ indicator Fura-2/AM was used to observe [Ca2+]i of rat PASMCs in normal and chronic hypoxic condition. The influences of ClCa channels on PASMCs proliferation were assessed by MTT assay. RESULTS: (1) The ClCa channel blockers niflumic acid (NFA) and indaryloxyacetic acid (IAA-94) produced inhibitory effects on acute hypoxia-evoked contractions in pulmonary artery. (2) Under chronic hypoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was increased. In normoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was (123.63?18.98) nmol/L, and in hypoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was (281.75?16.48)nmol/L (P0.05). (4) Chronic hypoxic increased [Ca2+]i which opened ClCa channels. The NFA and IAA-94 blocked them and decreased [Ca2+]i from (281.75?16.48)nmol/L to (117.66?15.36)nmol/L (P

AIM: To investigate the contribution of diazoxide,an opener of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K+ channel(MitoKATP),and mitochondrial membrane potential(??m) to change of H2O2 in rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells(PASMCs) and to unbalance between cell proliferation and apoptosis of PASMCs induced by hypoxia.METHODS: The rat PASMCs were isolated from fresh normal lung tissues and cultured,which were divided into 6 groups,as follows: ① control group;② diazoxide group;③ 5-HD group;④chronic hypoxia group;⑤ chronic hypoxia+diazoxide group;⑥ chronic hypoxia +5-HD group.The relative change in mitochondrial potential was detected with rhodamine fluorescence(R-123) technique.The level of H2O2 in rat PASMCs was detected with chemiluminescence method.The proliferation of rat PASMCs was examined by cell cycle analysis and MTT colorimetric assay.RESULTS: After exposed to diazoxide for 24 h,the intensity of R-123 fluorescence,the level of H2O2 and the A value in normoxic rat PASMCs were significantly increased,and the apoptosis of rat PASMCs was significantly decreased as compared with control group(P

Objective To explore the influence of Helicobacter pylori (Hp) on the proliferation, apoptosis and expression of p27kipl protein of gastric epithelial cells in vitro. Methods SC, C-7901 cell pro-liferation was examined by flow cytometry after incubation with different concentration of NCTC11637. The effect of NCTC11637 on cell apoptosis was also evaluated by flow cytometryo And the expression of p27kipl of gastric epithelial cells was detected by immunohistochemical analysis and in situ hybridization, respectively. Results Cell proliferation was enhanced when co-incubated with the Hp in low concentration (3.4 x 104 to 1.9 x 105 CFU/ml) but inhibited in higher concentration (≥4.8×106CFU/ml). However, cell apoptosis was increase when co-incubated with the Hp in high concentration (≥9.6 ×105 CFU/ml) showing concen-tration dependent picture. In addition, the co-incubation of SGC-7901 with Hp led to decrease of the expres-sion of p27kipl protein but not mRNA in a Hp concentration dependent way. Conclusion Hp could effect the gastric epithelial cells apoptosis and proliferation directly and influence the expression of p27kips protein which might facilitate gastric carcinoma.

Objective:To evaluate the rehabilitation efficacy of early mobilization based on collaboration care model for patients with laparoscopic colorectal surgery.Methods:Cluster sampling method was used in the department to recruit colorectal cancer patients with laparoscopic surgery. The control group (49 cases) received routine perioperative care and exercise, and the intervention group (47 cases) received the coordinated early mobilization combined with routine perioperative care and exercise, from January to March 2019. Primary outcome were health status and the proportion of patients returning to preoperative functional walking capacity (6-min walk test) at 4 weeks after surgery. The in-hospital mobilization (time out-of-bed), time to achieve discharge criteria, time to recover gastrointestinal function and complication rate were explored.Results:In intervention group,89.4%(42/47) of patients achieved mobilization target on 4 days after surgery compared with 42.6%(20/47) on the day of surgery. Time out of bed were greater in the intervention group compared with the control group, and there were differences between the two groups( Z values were -8.437--7.381, P<0.01). Time to recover gastrointestinal function and the recovery of energy on 3 days after surgery were (58.74±17.41) h, (59.02±9.46) points in the observation group, and (71.82±21.53) h, (62.61±7.68) points in the control group, and there were significant differences between the two groups ( t values were -3.263, -2.046, P<0.05). But other outcome measures were not different between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For colorectal laparoscopic surgery patients, the coordinated early mobilization improved the adherence to ambulation, in-hospital mobilization, time to recover gastrointestinal function and recovery of energy to promote rehabilitation.

0.05),but the contraction of the bronchial rings caused by histamine,potassium chloride,intracellular Ca2+ release and extracellular Ca2+ influx was signifi cantly inhibited by Shenmai injection(compare with those of control,P

To investigate the relationship between intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) and calcium-activated chloride (Clca) channels of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) in rats under acute and chronic hypoxic conditions, acute hypoxia-induced contraction was observed in rat pulmonary artery by using routine blood vascular perfusion in vitro. The fluorescence Ca2+ indicator Fura-2/AM was used to observe [Ca2+]i of rat PASMCs under normal and chronic hypoxic condition. The effect of Clca channels on PASMCs proliferation was assessed by MTT assay. The Clca channel blockers niflumic acid (NFA) and indaryloxyacetic acid (IAA-94) exerted inhibitory effects on acute hypoxia-evoked contractions in the pulmonary artery. Under chronic hypoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was increased. Under normoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was (123.63 +/- 18.98) nmol/L, and in hypoxic condition, [Ca2+]i was (281.75 +/- 16.48) nmol/L (P<0.01). Under normoxic condition, [Ca2+]i showed no significant change and no effect on Clca channels was observed (P> 0.05). Chronic hypoxia increased [Ca2+]i which opened Clca channels. The NFA and IAA-94 blocked the channels and decreased [Ca2+]i from (281.75 +/- 16.48) nmol/L to (117.66 +/- 15.36) nmol/L (P<0.01). MTT assay showed that under chronic hypoxic condition NFA and IAA-94 decreased the value of absorbency (A value) from 0.459 +/- 0.058 to 0.224 +/- 0.025 (P<0.01). Hypoxia increased [Ca2+]i which opened Clca channels and had a positive-feedback in [Ca2+]i. This may play an important role in hypoxic pulmonary hypertension. Under chronic hypoxic condition, Clca channel may play a part in the regulation of proliferation of PASMCs.
