1.Research progress of the mechanism of hepatic injury after cardiopulmonary bypass
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2003;0(08):-
Since the first launching of heart lung bypass machine in animal model in 1937,cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) has become more and more consummate,but it still brings about many complications,including pulmonary,renal and hepatic dysfunctions.Among these complications,hepatic dysfunction plays an important role in the impairment after cardiac operations.The liver function indices such as aspartate aminotransferase,glutamate-pyruvate transaminase,bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase will step up obviously during 3 to 5 days after the operation.The physiological changes deteriorate patient's condition,and even influence the prognosis.This clinical phenomenon puzzles cardiac surgeons.All these demand us to answer the following questions: Is the cardiopulmonary bypass harm the liver? What's the mechanism? We review the different researches on hepatic injury after cardiopulmonary bypass.

Lysostaphin (Lysn) is an antibacterial metalloendopeptidase that cleaves the pentaglycin bridges in the cell wall of Staphylococci. Although many studies have demonstrated its high activity in vitro, the medical application of Lysn has been hampered by its short half-life in vivo. In order to enhance its stability in vivo without significantly suppressing the enzymatic activity, we designed and tested eight single cysteine substitutions in Lysn for covalent attachment of polyethylene glycol chains (PEGylation). The purified mutants, fully reduced by Dithiothreitol (DTT), were treated with mPEG-MAL(20 kDa). The PEG modification efficiency was above 70% as determined by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis. The PEG-Lysn proteins were further purified by cation exchange chromatography (MacroCap SP), reaching at least 95% purity. The activities of the PEG-Lysn proteins were determined by the turbidity and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) assays. We found that the PEGylated V240C and T244C mutants retained about 50% of the original antibacterial activity of Lysn. Overall, this study will help develop highly stable and active PEG-Lysn to treat systemic S. aureus infections.

Objective To investigate the effects of Mailuoning on oxidative stress and ischemic brain injury. Methods A total of 126 healthy male Kunming mice were divided into sham operation (n = 18), normal saline control (n = 54) and Mailuoning (n = 54) groups. A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was induced Two hours after MCAO,Mailuoning injection and equivalent saline were injected via the tail vein in the Mailuoning and normal saline control groups, respectively, and then they were injected every other 24 h.Neurological score was performed, and brain water content, infarct volume, membrane potential,as well as protein oxidative stress metabolites such as 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), lipid oxidative stress metabolite 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and nucleic acid oxidative stress metabolite 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were detected at 12, 24 and 72 h after MCAO. Results Mailuoning injection could significantly improve the neurological function of cerebral ischemia in mice, decrease brain edema, and reduce infarct volume at different time points after cerebral ischemia Of those, it was most significant at 72 h. Mailuoning injection could reverse the decreased mitochondrial membrane potential in cerebral cortex and internal capsule, and significantly downregulate the increased 3-NT, HNE and 8-OHdG in cerebral cortex, internal capsule and serum after ischemia, of those, the effect of reducing HNE was most significant.Conclusions Mailuoning injection may effectively protect against ischemic brain injury in mice,and its mechanism is associated with inhibiting oxidative stress, particularly anti-lipid oxidation.

Objective To determine whether field triage would reduce median contact-to-device ( C2D ) time in patients with ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction ( STEMI ) . Methods Consecutive patients with STEMI underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention( PCI) from March 2010 to February 2014 in Shanghai Pudong Gongli Hospital were analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups. A total of 121 patients were admitted by field triage and 101 patients by non-field triage. The primary study point was C2D time and the study points secondary included ( door-to-balloor, D2B) time, peak Troponin I ( TnI) levels, hospital mortality and 30 days follow-up mortality. Results Baseline and procedural characteristics between the two groups were comparable. Comparing to non-field triage group, the C2D time was reduced [(92. 0 ± 56. 0)min vs. (131. 0 ± 61. 0)min,P﹤0. 01]. The D2B time was lower in the field triage group vs. the non-field triage group [(55. 0 ±26. 0)min vs. (96. 0 ±31. 0)min,P﹤0. 01]. The percentage of patients with C2D time less than 90 minutes increased significantly from 85. 1% to 98. 3%( P﹤0. 01 ) in the field triage group. Peak TnI level was significantly reduced in the field triage group [(23. 5 ±22. 0) μg/L vs. (43. 5 ± 39. 0) μg/L,P﹤0. 01]. In-hospital mortality and 30 days follow-up mortality did not significantly differ between the 2 groups (3. 3% and 3. 0%, P=0. 885;3. 3% and 5. 0%, P=0. 544, respectively). Conclusions In STEMI patients, field triage was associated with significantly reduced C2D and D2B times.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of two kinds of homemade sirolimus-eluting stents (Firebird and Excel) for treatment of acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods The 249 consecutive patients with STEMI who underwent PCI were randomly divided into two groups: Excel group (n=136) and Firebird group (n=113). They were followed up for 6-24 months, and coronary angiography was reviewed average 12 months later. The primary endpoints were major adverse cardiac events, including death, reinfarction and target vessel revascularization. The second endpoints included late luminal loss and restenosis 12 months after treatment. Results There were no significant differences in baseline data, coronary arterial lesion before operation, and immediateness condition after PCI between the two groups (all P>0.05). Within follow-up, there were 2 (1.47%) death cases and 1 (0.88%) death case, 1 (0.74%) and 1 (0.88%) nonfatal myocardial infarction case, 2 (1.47%) and 2 (1.77%) target vessel revascularization cases in the two groups respectively (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences in late luminal loss of in-stent and in-segment, the rates of in-stent restenosis, in-segment restenosis and stent thrombosis, the in-stent minimal lumen diameter and in-segment minimal lumen diameter between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions The two kinds of homemade sirolimus-eluting stents may have similar efficacy and safety in patients with STEMI treated with primary PCI.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of mycolic acid for identification of Mycobacterium species using SMIS. Methods One hundred and eighteen clinical Mycobacterium isolates collected from Beijing Tuberculosis and Thoracic Tumor Research Institute through whole year of 2007 were analyzed. The 118 isolates contain 25 isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and 93 non tuberculosis Mycobacterium identified by PNB method. Mycolic acid analysis using SMIS is evaluated for identification of a broad range of Mycobacteria in comparison with 16S rDNA , 16-23S rDNA ITS sequencing to measure the concordance rate and agreement, and verify the concordance rate and agreement among results of mycolic acid, sequencing and PNB in identifying Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non tuberculosis Mycobacterium. Results The concordance rate between mycolic acid method analysis and DNA sequencing is 92% ( 108/118), of which concordance rate in Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and non tuberculosis Mycobacterium are 95% (35/37) and 90% (73/81) respectively, agreement of both is great( agreement Kappa value is 0. 96). Through retrospective analysis, the concordance of results between SMIS and PNB method analysis is 90% (106/118)and agreement is well( agreement Kappa value is 0. 73 ), the concordance of results between sequencing and PNB method analysis is also 90% ( 106/118 ) and agreement is well (agreement Kappa value is 0. 74 ),despite the identification results of 11 isolates by PNB method are discordant. Conclusion Mycolic acid analysis by SMIS enables rapid identification of a broad range of clinical Mycobacterium species, which could play an important role in polyphasic identification of Mycobacterium species.
