1.EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES ON THE PATHOGENESIS OF BARIUM-INDUCED MYOCARDIAL NECROSIS IN CONDITIONS OF POTASSIUM DEFICIENCY
Acta Nutrimenta Sinica 1956;0(04):-
The pathogenesis of barium-induced severe myocardial necrosis in dietary potassum-depleted rats was investigated. In this study four experiments were performed. The results of these experiments suggest that there exist a complex pathogenesis of myocardial lesion produced by barium in condition of potassium deficiency. The main mechanism seems to be the direct stimulating effect of barium on myocardial contractibility. It seems unlikely that barium-induced constriction of coronary arteries, hypertension, hypokalemia, and increased catecholamine secretion are the basic mechanism of the myocardial necrosis. But these factors may play a promoting or aggravating role in the development of the myocardial lesion. Potassium deficiency not only acts as a conditioning factor for barium-induced myocardial necrosis, but also relatively increases the cardiotoxity of barium. This may be the principal pathogenesis of severe myocardial necrosis produced by barium in combination with potassium deficiency.
2.Beneficial effects of nitrendipine on diabetic cardiomyopaty in rats
Chinese Journal of Diabetes 1993;0(00):-
The effects of nitrendipine (Nit) on myocardial contractility, myocardial succinate de-hydrogenase (SDH) and cytochrome oxidase (CCO) activities in streptozotocin (65mg/kg) diabetic rats were studied. Four weeks after the induction of diabetes, the rats were treated with Nit (30mg ?kg -2/day) for 4 weeks. The results showed that ventricular diastolic function was affected after 4 weeks of diabetes, and both ventricular diastolic and systolic functions were obviously involved after 8 weeks. These changes were significantly improved in diabetic rats receiving Nit treatment. The myocardial SDH and CCO activities in diabetic animals were markedly lower as compared to controls. The attenuation of these enzyme activities in diabetic rats was significantly reversed by administration of Nit. These findings suggest that Nit treatment may exhibit some beneficial effects on diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2006;10(7):165-167
BACKGROUND: In association with advanced startover of hypothalamus-pituitary-sexual gland axis, the growth of skeleton is accelerated and epiphyseal fusion occurred earlier in puberty precocity children. In clinic,Chinese drug for nourishing yin and reducing fire retards bone age and the advanced fusion in the disease. At the age of sexual development, Chinese drug for benefiting kidney to supplement essence is replaced to promote sexual development and accelerate skeleton growth. The patients with puberty precocity are the same to that in normal puberty in sexual development and bone growing, just being advanced in time. But, it is still unknown the mechanism of Chinese drugs on bone growth and effects on somatostatin (SS) in bone growth.OBJECTIVE: To explore the regulation of kidney-nournishing Chinese drug on periventricular nucleus (PeVN) SS.DESIGN: Completely randomized group division and control experiment were designed.SETTING: Department of Endocrinology, Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University MATERIALS: The experiment was performed in Institute of Pediatrics of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Fudan University from October 2001 to April 2002, in which, 24 SD white rats were employed, of purebred, female and clean grade. 4 groups were randomized, named the control A, the group with drugs of nourishing yin and reducing fire (experiment group No. 1), the control B and group with drugs of nourishing yin and reducing fire + benefiting kidney to supplement essence (experiment group No.2),6 rats in each group.METHODS: ① Control A:physiological saline was applied for gastricperfusion, 5 mL each time, once per day, totally for 1 month. Experiment No. 1 group: Chinese mixture for nourishing yin and reducing fire was applied for gastric perfusion, composed of shengdihuang (Radix Rehmanniae),zhiguiban (Chinemys reevesii.), huangbai (Cortex Phellodendri) and zhimu (Rhizoma Anemarrhenae) etc, 5 mL each time, once per day, totally for 1 month. Control B: physiological saline wasapplied for gastric perfusion,5 mL each time, once per day, totally for 2 months. Experiment No.2 group:Firstly, Chinese mixture for nourishing yin and reducing fire was applied for gastric perfusion, 5 mL each time, once per day, totally for 1 month.And then Chinese mixture for benefiting kidney to supplement essence was applied for breeding, composed of shudihuang (Radix Rehmanniae Preparata), guibanjiao (Colla Carapacis Testudinis), xianlingpi, lujiaojiao (Colla Cornus Cervi) etc., 5 mL each time, once per day, totally for 1 month.② In situ hybridization staining procedure with floating and routine immunohistochemical technique. Medical imaging analysis software was used to assay PeVN SS mRNA, SS immunoreactive neuron counts and absorption (A value) of positive cell area that reflects the gene expression and protein expression. Number of positive neurons of unit area refers to the positive neuron counts in each square millimeter.③ Singer-factoranalysis of variance was used for the comparison of measurement data. F test was adopted for difference comparison among groups.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Effects of Chinese drugs for nourishing yin and reducing fire and benefiting kidney to supplement essence on PeVN SS gene mRNA and protein expressionRESULTS: 24 rats were all in result analysis. ① PeVN SS mRNA positive neuron counts, positive neuron counts of unit area and A value of positive cell area: Those in experiment No.1 group was higher remarkably than the those of control A (P < 0.05); and those in experiment No.2 group were lower remarkably than those of experiment No. 1 group (P < 0.05). ② PeVN SS positive neuron counts, positive neuron counts of unit area and A value of positive cell area: those in experiment No. 1 group: those in experiment No.1 group were higher remarkably than those of control A (P < 0.05) and those in experiment No.2 group were lower remarkably than those of experiment No. 1 group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: By controlling hypothalamus SS gene expression and protein expression, Chinese drugs for nourishing yin and reducing fire and benefiting kidney to supplement essence regulate the synthesis and releasing of pituitary growth hormone.
