Experiment teaching is a major part of medical education,which plays an important role in cultivating science thought and creative ability.In order to further deepen functional experiment teaching reform,this paper generalized the achievements and the problems in function experiment centre operation.It also proposed the new trend in the next step of reform.

[ABSTRACT]AIM:Toobservetheeffectsofpuerarincombinedwithsaxagliptinonrenalfibrosisintype2dia-betic rats.METHODS:Fifty male Wistar rats were used, of which 8 rats were randomly chosen as normal control group , and the remaining rats were used to establish the type 2 diabetic model.The rats that met the criterion for the diabetic mo-del were randomly divided into model group , puerarin treatment group , saxagliptin treatment group , puerarin combined with saxagliptin treatment group and metformin combined with saxagliptin treatment group .The above-mentioned drugs were ad-ministered for 8 weeks.After that period, all rats were sacrificed.The kidney index (kidney weight/body weight),and blood glucose and HbA1c were examined in all the rats.The morphological changes were observed by HE and Masson stai-ning.The levels of TNF-αand macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in the serum were measured by ELISA .The mRNA expression of TNF-α, MIF and CD68 was examined by RT-PCR.RESULTS: Compared with normal group , the kidney index, blood glucose and HbA1c, the levels of TNF-αand MIF in the serum and the mRNA expression of TNF-α, MIF and CD68 were increased (P<0.05) in the kidney tissues of model group .Compared with model group , the kidney index, blood glucose and HbA1c, the levels of MIF and TNF-αin the serum and the mRNA expression of TNF-α, MIF and CD68 were decreased ( P<0.05) in puerarin combined with saxagliptin treatment group .CONCLUSION:Puerarin com-bined with saxagliptin reduces blood glucose , decreases MIF and TNF-α, and down-regulates the mRNA expression of TNF-α, MIF and CD68 in the kidney tissues of type 2 diabetic rats, which may contribute to the inhibition of renal fibrosis .

AIM: Two models of experimental myocardial ischemia were set up to observe the protection of Danshen glucose injection against ischemia in rats. METHODS: Models of experimental acute myocardial ischemia were made by ligature or medication (pituitrin) to check the indices of ECG, hemodynamics, and morphology. RESULTS: A dosage of Danshen glucose injection 4.0 g/kg, 8.0 g/kg was given to rats by intravenous injection; the rats had undergone a thirty-minute ligatute of coronary left anterior descending branch, and used as a model of ischemic reperfusion. The observations showed that Danshen glucose injection exerted a recovery effect on heart rate, blood pressure, internal pressure of left ventricule and its peak/trough rate (?dp/dt max ), and ST segment (electrocardiogram). The injection markedly reduced the myocardial infarct size of the coronary-ligatured rats. The injection benefited the rats with pituitrin (iv) induced acute myocardial ischemia to reverse and T-wave fall. CONCLUSION: Danshen glucose injection has a protective and therapeutic action on the experimental myocardial ischemia of rats.

AIM:Toinvestigatetheeffectofrhynchophylline(Rhy)onbloodpressure,cardiachypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis in spontaneously hypertensive rats ( SHR) .METHODS:Spontaneously hypertensive rats were ran-domly divided into model group , high dose (10 mg? kg-1? d-1 ) and low dose (2.5 mg? kg-1? d-1 ) group of rhyncho-phylline, captopril group (17.5 mg? kg -1? d-1).Wistar-Kyoto rats were used as normal control.Respectively, systolic blood pressure was measured by tail cuff every 2 weeks.After 10 weeks, heart weight index and left ventricular weight in-dex were calculated .The myocardial hydroxyproline and plasma angiotensin Ⅱwere detected .Moreover , basic myocardial histopathological changes and myocardial collagen fibres were observed by HE staining and Masson staining , respectively . The protein expression of TGF-β1 and Smad3 in the myocardium was measured by the methods of immunohistochemistry and Western blot .RESULTS:Compared with SHR model group , Rhy significantly reduced blood pressure ( P<0.05 ) , the levels of HYP in the myocardium (P<0.05) and the levels of AngⅡin the plasma (P<0.01).The pathological dama-ges of the myocardial tissues and collagen deposition were attenuated .The protein expression of TGF-β1 and Smad3 was sig-nificantly reduced by the treatment with Rhy (P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Rhynchophylline reduces blood pressure and adjusts to improve ventricular remodeling of SHR .The mechanism may be involved in the TGF-β1/Smad pathway and re-ducing AngⅡcontent.
