Mitogen - activated protein kinases (MAPKs), including extracellular signal - regulated kinases (ERKs), c - Jun NH2 - terminal kinases (JNKs) and p38 MAPK, play an important role in transducting environmental stimuli to the transcriptional machinery in the nucleus in mammalian cells by virtue of their ability to phosphorylate and regulate the activity of various transcription factors. It was recently found that the changes in activity of MAPKs occurred during ischemia/reperfusion, but the biological significance of the changes was still controversial.

AIM: To investigate the change and the possible role of mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK) subfamilies in early recovery process following acute renal ischemia/reperfusion injury. METHODS: Ischemia/reperfusion renal injury model was made by placing an atraumatic vascular clamp in renal pedicel. The morphologic change was observed by transmission electron microscope. The proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) positive renal cells were detected by immunohistochemistry. Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and c-Jun NH 2-terminal kinase(JNK) activity was assayed by specific substrate phosphorylation with immunoprecipitation. RESULTS: After acute ischemia, microvilli in renal tubular cells appeared again after 2h of reperfusion. At the same time, the PCNA-positive cells were initially increased. ERK activity decreased at 45 min of ischemia, and completely recovered at 5 min of reperfusion. JNK activity was not influenced by ischemia, but increased at 5 min of reperfusion, reaching its maximal activity at 20 min of reperfusion, and prolonged within 2h reperfusion. CONCLUSION: After renal ischemia/reperfusion injury, the early recovery of renal tubule damage was related to the changes of MAPKs in which the increase of JNK activity might be more important.

Objective To prepared the docetaxel nano liposome (L-DOC) for the therapy of liver cancer HepG2 cells in vitro and in vivo. Methods The film-ultrasonic dispersion method was used to prepare the L-DOC.The diameter and Zeta potential of L-DOC were determined by Nanosizer and the encapsulation efficiency was further measured.CCK-8 method was used to determine the cell viability of HepG2 cell after treating with various concentration of DOC and L-DOC respectively and the cell death type was detected by Flow cytometer.Next, we have studied the relative tumor volume change of tumor-bearing mice and the toxicity in vivo.Results The average diameter of L-DOC was 104 nm and the Zeta potential was about -35.1 mV.The Zeta potential of L-DOC was almost unchanged after standing for 96 hours.The encapsulation efficiency of L-DOC was ( 71.2 ±1.6 )%.The CCK-8 results showed that the cell viability was decreased after treating with various concentration of DOC and L-DOC, but the inhibition effect of L-DOC was better than that of DOC after treating with the same dose, especially for 20μg/mL.It was found that the cell death was induced by apoptosis.The in vivo study results showed that 6mg/kg L-DOC could inhibit the tumor volume better than that of same dose of DOC.In addition, 6mg/kg L-DOC and DOC didn’ t induce in vivo toxicity.Conclusion The L-DOC is prepared by film-ultrasonic dispersion method which has small diameter, great biocompatibility.And it could inhibit the HepG2 cells in vitro and in vivo, especially for no in vivo toxicity.

Objective To evaluate the characteristics of quantitative monitoring of brain function during the perioperative period in elderly patients and its relationship with postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD).Methods Seventy ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged ≥ 60 yr,scheduled for elective lumbar spine decompression and fusion surgery under general anesthesia,having an expected postoperative length of hospital stay ≥ 7 days,were enrolled in the study.The cognitive function was assessed by using Mini-Mental State Examination before operation and the results were normal.Fifty healthy elderly volunteers were chosen and served as control group.Cognitive function was assessed at l day before operation (D0) and 3 (D3) and 7 days after operation (D7).Z score was used to identify POCD.All the patients were then divided into POCD group or control group (group C) according to the results of diagnosis.Quantitative monitoring of brain function was carried out using a traction system,and the wavelet index (WLI),i_22 and i_20 were recorded.Results A total of 67 patients completed the study and were enrolled in the analysis,there were 9 cases in group C,and 58 cases in group POCD.The WLI was significantly decreased at D7,and no significant change was found in WLI at D3 as compared with the value at D0.The WLI was significantly lower at D7 than at D3.There was no significant difference in i_22 and i_20 between the three time points.Compared with group C,i_22 was significantly decreased at D0,and no significant change was found in i_22 at the other time points and in WLI at each time point in POCD group.Conclusion During quantitative monitoring of brain function during the perioperative period in the elderly patients,WLI is significantly decreased on 7th day postoperatively,and no significant change is found in i_20 and i_22,however,the pre-operative low i_22 value can predict the development of POCD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of scavenger receptor A on the catabolism of lipid emulsions and further to see if it differently affects long-chain triglyceride (LCT) and fish oil (FO) emulsions. MethodsA total of 24 C57BL/6J female mice, 10 to 12 weeks old, were randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 mice in each group. Two groups of mice were intravenously injected with dextran sulfate ( DexSO4 ) ( 1 mg/mouse) followed by intravenous injection of [1α, 2α(n)-3H] cholesteryl oleoyl ether [(3H)CEt] labelled LCT or FO emulsions (0.4mg triglycerde/mouse) at 2 minutes respectively, and other two groups were injected by saline as controls before injection of (3H)CEt labelled LCT and FO emulsions. Then, blood was drawn at fixed intervals to measure the radioactivities and the emulsion's fractional catabolic rates (FCR) were calculated. With the same procedures above mentioned, non-radiolabelled LCT and FO emulsions were intravenously injected to mice to determine liver uptake of lipid emulsions under electromicroscopy. Finally, THP1 cell line was used to examine the effects of DexSO4 on cell uptake of LCT and FO emulsions in vitro. ResultsPre-injection of DexSO4 to mice decreased the FCR of both LCT and FO emulsions at 72.38％ and 47.38％ respectively, as compared to controls ( P =0.020 ). Electromicroscopy showed that pre-injection of DexS04 decreased the uptakes of LCT and FO emulsions by Kupffer cells and sinusoidal endothelial cells similarly. In hepatocytes, no lipid droplets existed in mice with LCT emulsion injection, whereas some lipid droplets were still shown in mice with FO emulsions but with less quantities compared to control mice.In vitro, addition of DexSO4 to medium decreased THP1 cell uptakes of LCT and FO emulsions ( P =0.003 and 0.008) by 30.74％ and 41.60％ respectively. However, no differences were found in the effects of DexS04 on cell uptakes between LCT and FO emulsions ( P =0.080). ConclusionScavenger receptor A plays important roles in catabolism of lipid emulsions to some extent, and it's effects on FO emulsions may be less than LCT emulsions.
