ObjectiveTo investigate the dosage of protamine to counteract heparin in patients with different pH values of after - surgery plasma of congenital heart defect.MethodsThe clinical data of 108 patients during March 2011 to April 2011 with congenital heart diseases who underwent cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) surgery were reviewed.The volumes of chest tube drainage were analyzed to investigate the dosage of protamine in patients with different pH values in plasma.ResultsThe dosages of protamine and the volumes of chest tube drainage[ ( 136.8 ± 22.8 ) ml] in patients with an acidic environmental plasma were higher than the patients in another group [ ( 112.6 ± 22.7 ) ml ] ( P＜ 0.01 ).In patients with non-acidic environments,the mean ratio of dosage of protamine to heparin was 1.23:1 ; meanwhile in patients with pH＜7.30 or base excess (BE) ＜ -6,the mean ratio was 1.86:1.It suggested the dosage of protamine increased significantly in patients with an acidic environmental plasma.ConclusionsDifferent plasma pH values could change the dosage of protamine after cardiopulmonary bypass,and the acidic environment would increase the dosage of protamine and increase the volume of chest tube drainage after surgery.When pH ＜ 7.30 or BE ＜ - 6 at the end of CPB,to correct acid-base balance first and then calculate the dose of protamine was recommended.

3?10 -4 mol/L), and the role was persistent if its concentration was kept. Meanwhile, the increase of intracellular free Ca 2+ induced by stretch was also inhibited by NO. Conclusion Cardiocytes hypertrophic response stimulated by stretch could be inhibited by nitric oxide. The inhibitory effect might be due to the decrease of the concentration of intracellular free Ca 2+ .

A new and effective method to produce transgenic animals was established. Without a surgical incision, the recombinant plasmid containing green fluorescence protein (GFP) cDNA was repeatedly injected into male mouse testis at multi-sites. After few weeks of the final injection, the injected male was mated with normal oestrus female to produce transgenic mice. The presence of the GFP cDNA in F1 transgenic individuals were detected by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot hybridization, which showed that the transgenic rate of mouse F1 offspring was 41%. The transferred gene was integrated into the host genome and could be transmitted to its offspring. When the positive F1 individuals were mated with the wild type ICR mice, the F2 individuals had a transgenic rate of 37%. The results indicate that the high efficiency of gene transfer and the limited number of manipulations make the method suitable for creating a large number of transgenic animals, especially, for producing domestic animals.

Objective To observe the effects of microRNA-21 (miR-21) inhibitor on apoptosis of type Ⅱalveolar epithelial cells (AEC Ⅱ) in rats with hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (HALI).Methods Eighty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into air-control group,hyperoxia injury group,empty-virus control group (200 μL solution with lentivirus was dropped into the nasal) and miR-21 inhibitor pretreatment group (200 μL solution with lentivirus contained miR-21 inhibitor was dropped through the nasal) by random number table.After treatment,the rats in all groups were fed in the hyperoxia incubator with oxygen concentration exceeding 90％ for production of HALI model,and the rats in air-control group were fed normally without any treatment.Ten rats were selected at 0,24,48 and 72 hours after exposure in hyperoxia environment respectively,and the general changes of lung tissues were observed in light microscope.The right lung tissues were harvested to observe the pathological changes under light microscopy.The left lung tissues of other 10 rats in each group were harvested at 48 hours after execution,the miR-21 expression was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR),the protein expression of cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-3 (caspase-3) was determined by Western Bolt,and apoptosis of AEC Ⅱ was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL).Results ① No abnormal appearance in lung tissues was observed at all time points in the air-control group.In hyperoxia injury group,the lung injury would be more severe if the exposure time was longer,and lung tissues turned dark red after exposure for 72 hours,with patchy hemorrhage in several places;the structure of lung tissues was disordered,the alveolar wall was broken,the alveolar septum was significantly edematous and broadened,and there was plenty of inflammatory cell infiltration and edema fluid appeared inside the alveolar space.In miR-21 inhibitor pretreatment group,the degree of lung tissue injury was more severe than that of the hyperoxia injury group,and there was no significant change in empty-virus control group.(②) Compared with air-control group,miR-21 expression of the hyperoxia injury group was significantly decreased (2-△△Ct:0.021 ± 0.005 vs.0.037 ± 0.006),and the protein expression of caspase-3 was significantly increased (A value:0.423±0.081 vs.0.123±0.023,both P ＜ 0.05).After pretreatment with miR-21 inhibitor,the expression of miR-21 was further decreased (2-△△Ct:0.014±0.003 vs.0.021 ±0.005),while the protein expression of caspase-3was further increased (A value:0.691 ±0.085 vs.0.423 ±0.081,both P ＜ 0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the expression of miR-21 (2-△ △ct:0.025 ± 0.007 vs.0.021 ± 0.005) and caspase-3 (A value:0.475 ± 0.062vs.0.423 ±0.081) between empty-virus control group and hyperoxia injury group (both P ＞ 0.05).(③) Compared with air-control group,the apoptosis cells in hyperoxia injury group were increased,which was further increased after pretreatment of miR-21 inhibitor,but no changes were found in empty-virus control group.Conclusion Inhibition of miR-21 expression in vivo could aggravate the injury of lung tissue in HALI rats,and increase the apoptosis of AEC Ⅱ.

Objective To investigate the pharmacological mechanism of LXHX capsule. Methods The skin specimens from psoriasis patients were examined with TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl trans-ferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling) technique to detect the apoptosis of keratinocytes. PCNA (proliferating cell nuclear antigen) detecting kits was used, too. Then, the flow cytometry, with AnnexinV/PI and PI dyeing method, was used to analysis the effect of LXHX capsule on apoptosis in cultured keratinocytes. Results There was an increasing of both cell apoptosis and proliferation in psoriatic epidermis and LXHX capsule could induce apoptosis. Conclusions The keratinocyte apoptosis and proliferation both increased in psoriasis, which reach a new balance in a higher level. LXHX capsule could induce apoptosis in vitro, which may be one of the pharmacological mechanisms of LXHX in treating psoriasis.

Objective To construct the murine allogeneic acute GVHD model.Methods C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice were used as the donors and Balb/c (H-2d) mice as the recipients in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT).Groups were set as total body radiation (TBI) control group (n =4),GVHD group (n =10),simple BM transplantation group (n =10) and normal control group (n =4).For TBI control group,mice were subjected to TBI but did not receive BMT after radiation.For GVHD group,5 days before TBI,gentamycin (320 mg/L) and erythromycin (250 mg/L) were added into the drinking water,and on the day of transplantation,mice received one total dose of 8.0 Gy 60Coγ TBI,and within 5 h,2 × 106 C57BL/6 BM cells and 1 × 107 C57BL/6 spleen cells were transfused per mouse via the tail vein.For simple BMT group,the pretreatment was the same as GVHD group,and mice received only 2 × 106 C57BL/6 BM cells per mouse via the tail vein.The mental status,activity,posture,fur,weight,and stool were observed after transplantation.Survival time of each mouse was recorded,survival rate was calculated,and survival curve was drawn.Pathological examination was done for the liver,skin,small intestine and BM on the brink of death.Results The median survival time (MST) in TBI control group,GVHD group and BMT group was (9.0 ± 0.7),(32.0 ± 3.2) and ( 17.5 ± 1.6) days respectively,and there was significant difference between every two groups (P ＜ 0.01 ).Pathological examination in TBI control group showedhematopoiesis exhaustion.GVHD group showed acute GVHD symptoms 10-13 days after allo-BMT,and the pathological changes of the skin,liver and small intestine corresponded to those of Ⅰ to Ⅱ degree of GVHD.Simple BMT group also showed acute GVHD symptoms 10-13 days after alloBMT,but their GVHD manifestation and histological changes were less serious and only 0 to Ⅰ degree of GVHD could be seen.ConclusionStable acute GVHD model can be constructed by transfusion of allogeneic BM cells and spleen cells into Balb/c mice after lethal TBI.

This study investigated the effect of cadmium on the telomerase activity, the expression of TERT, c-myc and p53 and the apoptosis of rat hepatocytes. The rats were administrated 5, 10 and 20 μmol/kg cadmium chloride intraperitoneally and sacrificed 48 h after the initial treatment. The telomerase activity of the rat hepatocytes was measured by the telomeric repeat amplification protocol (TRAP), and apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The mRNA expressions of TERT, c-myc and p53 were measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). C-myc and P53 proteins were determined by immunochemistry. The results showed that cadmium chloride increased the hepatocellular telomerase activity in a dose-dependant manner and induced the apoptosis of hepatocytes significantly. The value of relative coefficient between the telomerase activity and the apoptosis rate was 0.9398. RT-PCR revealed that specific bands corresponding to the TERT mRNA, c-myc mRNA, and p53 mRNA were displayed at 185, 342 and 538 bp respectively. Cadmium chloride could substantially increase the mRNA expressions of TERT, c-myc and p53 in rat hepatocytes, as compared with control. Moreover, cadmium chloride at the doses of 5, 10 and 20 μmol/kg could increase the content of P53 protein in rat hepatocytes obviously, but only that at the doses of 10 and 20 μmol/kg substantially promoted the c-myc protein level in rat hepatocytes. Our study herein suggested that cadmium may contribute to the carcinogenesis by activating telomerase, and overexpressing the mRNAs of TERT, c-myc and p53, and causing apoptosis of normal cells.
