Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of ultrashortwave(USW)diathermy and rotating magnetic(RM)field therapy on the brain following transient focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion in rats. Methods Fifty-two Wistar rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group, an ischemia and a reperfusion control group, a USW treatment group and a RM treatment group. Focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion were induced by intraluminal filament occlusion of the middle cerebral artery. Each brain was removed at 24 h after the reperfusion and water content, cerebral infarct volume and histological expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins were observed. Results When USW treatment was started at 18 h after reperfusion, decreased infarct volume and water content were observed, but RM treatment did not show this relationship. Both USW and RM were associated with increased expression of Bcl-2 protein and decreased the expression of Bax protein. Conclusions USW treatment is beneficial in focal cerebral ischemia. RM′s effect is uncertain. Any effect is through reducing apoptosis.

Aim To study the effect of forskolin on cor-ticosterone secretion in mouse adrenocortical tumor cells. Methods Y1 cells were treated with 1μmol· L-1 or 10μmol·L-1 forskolin for 15 min to 24 h. Y1 cells growth morphology was observed, cell culture su-pernatants were collected and corticosterone was tested by ELISA kit. The cells total RNA was extracted using TRIzol kit and was reversely transcribed to obtain the cDNA, then was amplificated by real time quantitative PCR. The cells were lysed with RIPA lysis buffer and protein expressions were carried out by Western blot. Results Y1 cells morphology changed from flat adher-ent to shrink and spherical growth after 1μmol · L-1 forskolin treatment for 3 h. Compared with the control group, corticosterone levels were increased significantly by 1μmol · L-1 forskolin treatment for 24 h ( P <0. 01), then, forskolin significantly enhanced steroid ogenic acute regulatory protein ( Star) mRNA and pro-tein expression ( P <0. 01 ) , moreover, the steroido-genic enzymes such as Cyp11 a1 and Cyp11 b1 mRNA expressions were also up-regulated significantly by fors-kolin ( P <0. 01 ) . Additionally, Star mRNA expres-sion was increased significantly in a time-dependent re-sponse after 10μmol·L-1 forskolin treatment from 1 h to 12 h (P<0. 01). Furthermore, Nr4a1 and Nr4a2 mRNA expressions were up-regulated significantly after 10μmol · L-1 forskolin treatment from 15 min and reached the top at 1 h ( P<0. 01 ) . However, forsko-lin showed no effect on Mc2 r and Nr5 a1 mRNA expres-sions. Conclusion Y1 mouse adrenocortical tumor cells have a strong response to adenylate cyclase ago-nists, then, forskolin can be used to glucocorticoid se-cretion inducer reagent.

Objective To study the perioperative haemodynamic changes of the femoral vein in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and its significance. Methods The cross-sectional area, the mean velocity, and flow of the femoral vein at four different stages before and after LC, including baseline (BL), pneumoperitoneum (PP), pneumoperitoneum and reverse Trendlenburg position (PP&RT), and postoperation (PO), were assessed by using the color Doppler ultrasonography in 28 patients. Results ①As compared with the stage BL, the femoral venous cross-sectional area increased from 0.72?0.31 cm2 to 1.08?0.31 cm2 (P=0.004), the femoral venous blood velocity declined from 14.23?11.96 cm/s to 5.50?2.63 cm/s (P=0.017), and the femoral venous blood flow decreased from 596.49?477.95 ml/min to 340.41?166.14 ml/min (P=0.018) in the stage PP. As compared with the stage PP, the stage PP&RT revealed an increased cross-sectional area (1.32?0.14 cm2, P=0.039), a decreased blood velocity (4.40?1.75 cm/s,P=0.034), and an approximately unchanged blood flow (346.69?142.66 ml/min, P=0.067). As compared with the stage BL, the cross-sectional area (0.86?0.15 cm2, P=0.222), the blood velocity (11.35?8.02 cm/s, P=0.412), and the blood flow (566.94?348.55 ml/min, P=0.840) were all approximately recovered to the preoperative levels at the stage PO. ②Color Doppler ultrasonography revealed femoral venous stasis in 21 patients, and 15 of them were detected femoral venous blood reflux. Conclusions During laparoscopic cholecystectomy, pneumoperitoneum and reverse Trendlenburg position may decrease femoral velocity and lead to venous stasis and even blood reflux.
