Objective To explore the effect of long-term chronic mild stress on depression-like behaviors and the expression of heat shock protein 70(HSP70) in rats.Methods The standard SD rats were divided into two groups as following:one group (n =6) was treated with chronic mild stress for 3 weeks,and another group (n =5) was treated with chronic mild stress for 6 weeks.Depression-like behaviors of rats was observed by sucrose consumption test and open field test before and after chronic mild stress.And Western Blot,RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry were utilized to detect the HSP70 expression in the hippocampus and frontal lobes of rats after chronic mild stress.Results The sucrose favoritism in sucrose consumption test,the scores of crossing and the time for rats' retention in the center grid of open field test in long-term group were higher than those in short term group(P＜ 0.05).HSP70 expression in the hippocampus and frontal lobes of long-term group (0.81 ± 0.08,0.85 ± 0.08)detected by Western Blot and immunohistochemistry was higher that of short-term group (0.60 ± 0.06,0.85 ±0.07).HSP70 expression in the hippocampus of long-term group (0.90 ± 0.05,1.37 ± 0.38)detected by RT-PCR was higher that of short-term group(0.78 ± 0.04,1.08 ± 0.14) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion After long-term chronic mild stress,the depression-like behaviors decrease,and at the same time HSP70 mRNA and protein increase.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the prophylactic effect of Budesonide on the expression of IL-4,IL-5 in nasal mucosa in model of minimal persistent inflammation of allergic rhinitis in rats. METHOD: Eighty SD rats were randomly divided into allergic rhinitis group (A group), experimental (B group), control group (C group) and negative control group (D group). A group was made for model of allergic rhinitis. B and C group were made for model of the lightest persistent inflammatory response. After the models were established, half of rats in the A group, B group, C group and D group were executed, and EOS infiltration and the expression of IL-4, IL-5, ICAM-1 were observed in nasal mucosa. The remaining rats of B group were given budesonide (64 microg/side/time, twice/day) treatment for 2 weeks. A, C, D group were given nasal spray with normal saline for 2 weeks. After that A, B, and C groups were stimulated with 1% OVA daily for one week, D group were given nasal spray with normal saline. All rats were executed after excitation, EOS infiltration and IL-4, IL-5 expression were observed. RESULT: After the drug treatment, B group only had a small amount of mucous EOS infiltration and had no significant difference with D group, but in A and C group EOS had heavy infiltration. Gray value of the IL-4 positive areas in B group were significantly different compared with A and C group (P < 0.05), A group and C group had no significant difference (P > 0.05). Distribution of IL-5 positive signals was similar with that of IL-4. CONCLUSION Budesonide MPI application could significantly inhibit the allergic.

Objective To investigate whether cotransplant with xenogenetic neonatal porcine Sertoli cells (NPSCs) could prolong rat islet allograft survival and its mechanisms.Methods 1500 islets equivalent quantity (IEQ) and 1×10~7 NPSCs were implanted under renal capsule of diabetic Wistar rats.Islets implanted alone were used as control group (n=6);islets co-transplanted with NPSCs under left renal capsule of recipients served as experimental group (n=6);meanwhile,islets and NPSCs implanted into the different sides of kidneys were used as another control grouP(n=4).Blood glucose level was measured everyday.The graft-bearing kidneys at the time of rejection were Results Co-transplantation with NPSCs to the same site significantly prolonged islet allograft survival (mean survive time,16.3±1.4 days vs.5.7±1.0 days in islet transplant alone control group,P<0.05).In contrast,transplantation with NPSCs and islets separately did not prolong the islet allograft survival (5.3±0.5 days).HE staining showed plenty of local infiltrated lymphocytes in the transplanted site of the eontrol group.which were demonstrated as mainly CD3+ T cells by immunopathology.The local expression of Bcl-2 was markedly elevated in co-transplantation group as compared with the other 2 groups,while there were no significant differences in the HO-1 expression among these groups.Conclusion Co-transplantation with xenogenic NPSCs can significantly prolong islet allograft survival in rats.The immunoprotective mechanism may be associateel with the inhibition of lymphocyte infiltration and the enhancement of the local expression of protective gene Bcl-2.

Study the infect of child anorexia granule on serum ghrelin and leptin of anorexia children and its clinical efficacy. Selected 81 cases of anorexia children aged 1-6 years old into treatment group (42 cases) and control group (39 cases), in addition, 30 case healthy children as healthy control group. The control group children were treated with domperidone suspension 0.3 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1), tid, orally 30 minutes before meals. Treatment group were treated with child anorexia granule, 1-3 years 1 package, bid; 4-6 years 1 package, tid; po, 4 weeks as a course of treatment. Study the change of serum ghrelin and leptin before and after therapy. The study demonstrates that before treatment, the serum ghrelin level of disease group was lower than healthy group (P < 0.01), and the serum leptin level was higher than healthy group (P < 0.01). After treatment, the serum ghrelin level both increase, and the serum leptin decline. And the change of treatment group was significantly different with control group (P < 0.01). And the clinical effective rate are 95.23% and 74.35% (P < 0.01). After 6 months of follow-up visit, the children weight significantly increase in treatment group (P < 0.01). Results indicate that child anorexia granule can facilitate secretion of ghrelin, and inhibit secretion of leptin, so as to work up an appetite. And the molecular mechanism is its infect on serum ghrelin, leptin.

A series of isoindoline derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their double inhibitory activities. All of them were new compounds, and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and HR-MS. Preliminary in vitro pharmacological tests showed that all compounds exhibited 5-HT or NE reuptake inhibition activity. Among the tested compounds, compound I-3 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against 5-HT and NE reuptake in vitro, and exhibited potent antidepressant activity in vivo. These compounds designed can be further optimized for finding more potent 5-HT/NE dual reuptake inhibitors and antidepressant candidates as well.
