AIM: Changes of endoxin level, ATPase activities, intramitochondrial Ca2+ concentration, and gene expression of Na+-K+-ATPase isoforms in myocardium of rats with MIR and effect of verapamil were observed, in order to investigate mechanism of endoxin mediating intracellular calcium overload of myocytes. METHODS: Twenty four male Sprauge Dawley rats were randomized into 3 groups. Sham operation group: silk suture was threaded the left anterior descending coronary artery without ligature; MIR group (MIR): left anterior descending coronary artery was subjected to 30 min ligation followed by 45 min reperfusion; verapamil group: MIR model was given 5 mg/kg verapamil. Verapamil was injected via femoral vein 5 min before reperfusion. Left ventricle myocardium samples were processed immediately after reperfusion in order to measure the activities of Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase, endoxin level, and intramitochondrial Ca2+ concentration. The levels of ?1, ?2, ?3 and ?1 isoforms of Na+-K+-ATPase were measured by immunohistochemical assay. RESULTS: After MIR, the level of endoxin in myocardium was substantially increased; the activities of Na+-K+-ATPase and Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase in myocardial membrane were significantly decreased while the concentration of intramitochondrial Ca2+ was increased; the levels of the ?1, ?2, ?3 and ?1 isoforms of Na+-K+-ATPase were reduced markedly. Verapamil had only effect on reducing the concentration of intramitochondrial Ca2+. CONCLUSION: MIR increases endoxin secretion. The latter may depress the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase by changing the gene expression of ?1, ?2, ?3 and ?1 isoforms of Na+-K+-ATPase in myocardial membrane, inducing intramitochondrial Ca2+ overload.

AIM: To evaluate the protective effects of mycophenolate mofetil on the kidneys of type 2 diabetic rats and discover their mechanisms. METHODS: Wistar rats were divided into three groups, such as normal control rats, diabetic rats, and diabetic rats in the treatment with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF, 15 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 ). Thirteen weeks later, urinary albumin excretory rate (UAE), creatine clearance (Ccr), blood glucose, blood insulin and blood lipid were measured, and kidney pathology was observed. Inmmunohistochemistry was used to analyze the expression of CTGF, ColI and ColⅢ. RESULTS: Mycophenolate mofetil decreased UAE, Ccr and reduced glomerular volume. The expression of CTGF and deposition of ECM decreased after diabetic rats received mycophenolate mofetil. CONCLUSION: Mycophenolate mofetil can protect the kidney of diabetic rats. Its mechanism may be related to the decrease of CTGF expression and extracellular matrix deposition in renal tissue.
