Objective To examine the effect of berberine hydrochloride ( BER ) on the pharmacokinetic profiles of midazolam,a substrate of CYP3A,in rats. Methods The rats were intragastrically given different doses of BER (50,100, 200 mg?kg-1) or ketoconazole (75 mg?kg-1) for 10 days.Single-pass duodenum perfusion of 20 mg?kg-1 MDZ was performed and the inguinal artery was cannulated for blood sampling.Plasma concentrations of MDZ and 1'-OH-MDZ were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography ( HPLC) with the CYP3A inhibitor ketoconazole serving as positive control. Results BER (50,100,200 mg?kg-1) and ketoconazole (75 mg?kg-1) could significantly increase the AUC(0-t),AUMC(0-t)and Cmax of MDZ in a dose-dependent manner ( P<0.05) ,and reduce the clearance rate ( CLz ) of MDA and its apparent volume of distribution in the body ( Vz ) ( P<0. 05). But they failed to dramatically affect the half-life ( t1/2z ) and the peak time ( tmax ) of MDZ. Additionally,BER ( 100,200 mg?kg-1 ) and ketoconazole ( 75 mg?kg-1 ) could significantly dose-dependently decrease the AUC(0-t),AUMC(0-t)and Cmaxof 1'-OH-MDZ,and profoundly increase the CLz,tmax and Vz of 1'-OH-MDZ (P<0.05),but they had no remarkable influences on the t1/2z.The ratio of AUC(1'-OH-MDZ)/AUC(MDZ) was decreased with the increase of BER concentration. Conclusion BER can inhibit the in vivo metabolism of MDZ in a dose-dependant manner, which is associated with the suppression of the activity of CYP3A.

ObjectivesTo study the relationship between the allele frequencies and genotype distribution of transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-β1) gene promoter polymorphisms in Chinese patients with heptocellular carcinoma(HCC),and to analyze the association of the serum levels and genotype of TGF-β1 with HCC.MethodsThe polymorphisms of TGF-β gene,including polymorphisms of TGF-[β1 gene -800G/A、-509C/T,were analyzed by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP)methods in 102 patients with HCC and 110 healthy controls,and the serum level of TGF-β1 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ResultsThe HCC group showed significantly higher serum levels of TGF-β1 than control group [(51.06 ± 9.74)μg/L,(22.12 ± 8.67 )μg/L,t=22.884, P＜0.01], The distributions of TGF-β gene -800G/A polymorphisms were not different significantly between HCC group and control group, but TGF-β1 -509C/T gene polymorphism was significantly different. The relative risk suffered from HCC of C allele was 1.822 times of the T allele (OR=1.822,95 ％CI:1.238-2.682,t=22.884,P＜0.01), the serum level of TGF-β1 T allele carriers was significantly higher than that of no carriers [(53.52:±:10.07)μg/L,(43.57±9.89)μ.g/L,t=3.898, P＜0.01]. ConclusionTGF-β1 gene -509C/T polymorphism is associated with HCC, and T allele may be a risk factor for HCC, in which the TGF-β1 T allele carriers may have increased risk by enhancing the TGF-β1 expression in the pathogenesis of HCC.

Objective To verify the feasibility of discriminating tissue types in the anterior approach of the cervical spine by the Electrical impedance (EI) and decrease the rate of severe complications.Methods Six New Zealand white rabbits and 6 mini-pigs were performed standard anterior cervical surgery.The esophagus,carotid artery,tracheal cartilage,annular ligaments of trachea,longus colli muscle and anterior longitudinal ligament are classified as the prevertebral group;The cortical bone,cancellous bone,anulus fibrosus and nucleus pulposus are classified as the vertebral group.Once all the tissues were exposed completely,over the frequency range of 200-3 000 kHz (the frequency points were 200 kHz,400 kHz,600 kHz,800 kHz,1 000 kHz,2 000 kHz,3 000 kHz),the in vivo EI of prevertebral group and vertebral group were measured by a probe and a precision inductance-capacitance-resistance (LCR) meter;then the data were analyzed with IBM SPSS Statistics 22 software.At every frequency,Kruskal-Wallis test followed by all pairwise multiple comparisons was applied for all the four groups (the prevertebral group of rabbits,the vertebral group of rabbits,the prevertebral group of mini-pigs,and the vertebral group of mini-pigs),respectively.P values ＜ 0.05 were considered statistically significant.Results At every frequency,the results of Kruskal-Wallis test for all the four groups were significant,and the results of multiple comparisons were as follows.(1) In both miniature experimental animals and large experimental animals,the EI of the vertebral group tissues was significantly different at every investigated frequency (multiple comparisons).(2) In the miniature experimental animals,the EI between longus colli muscle and esophagus,carotid artery and annular ligaments of trachea,and tracheal cartilage and anterior longitudinal ligament had no significant difference at any frequency (multiple comparisons);significant difference could not be detected in the EI between anterior longitudinal ligament and annular ligaments of trachea at the frequencies of 2000-3 000 kHz (multiple comparisonsk) and could be detected at the frequencies of 200-1 000 kHz (multiple comparisons);for comparison of all other paired tissues of prevertebral group there were significant differences at all frequencies (multiple comparisonsk).(3) In the large experimental animals,the EI between longus colli muscle and esophagus,carotid artery and annular ligaments of trachea,and tracheal cartilage and anterior longitudinal ligament had no significant difference at any frequency (multiple comparisons),the same was true for the EI between annular ligaments of trachea and esophagus,carotid artery and anterior longitudinal ligament,and longus colli muscle and annular ligaments of trachea at the frequencies of 800-3 000 kHz,3 000 kHz and 3 000 kHz (multiple comparisons),respectively;for comparison of all other paired tissues of prevertebral group there were significant differences at all frequencies (multiple comparisons).Conclusion At certain frequencies,the EI among tissues was significantly different and could discriminate tissues in the anterior approach of the cervical spine.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of fluoroacetamide on cardiomyocytes of rat and the antidotal effect of acetamide.

METHODS4 groups of SD rats were treated with various dosages of fluoroacetamid(p.o.) and 2 groups of them were treated with acetamide(i.p.). The changes of cardiomyocytes and serum AST, LDH, CK, CK-MB and HBDH were measured at different intervals after poisoning.

RESULTSIn the group treated with fluoroacetamid 8 mg/kg. bw, serum AST[(589.58 +/- 821.72) U/L], CK[(916.78 +/- 343.55) U/L], HBDH[(504.47 +/- 148.88) U/L] raised obviously compared with control[(187.70 +/- 46.87), (755.65 +/- 498.90), (347.25 +/- 228.40) U/L respectively] (P < 0.01), and the pathological findings such as degeneration, liquefactive necrosis and filtration of inflammatory cells in cardiac muscles were observed 24 hours later, while all the male dead within 3 days. In the group treated with fluoroacetamid 4 mg/kg. bw, serum LDH and HBDH rose significantly compared with control(P < 0.01) 5 day later. On the day of 10, myocardial enzymes restored in all experiment groups with some interstitial fibroblastic proliferation. The pathological changes were reduced in the group treated with acetamide synchronously (100 mg/kg. bw).

CONCLUSIONAcute intoxication of fluoroacetamide could damage cardiomyocytes while acetamide could reduce the injury of them, but the injury was reversible. The levels of serum myocardial enzymes could be a usable index for early diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the complications of complex intracranial aneurysms after intervention with flow-diverter (FD) devices.Methods:Sixty patients with complex intracranial aneurysms accepted FD devices in Department of Cerebrovascular Diseases, Second Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University from July 2018 to June 2021 were chosen. Clinical and imaging data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed, and complications were recorded: procedure-related adverse events, early postprocedural complications, complications during follow-up, and covered branch occlusion.Results:A total of 61 FD devices (47 Pipeline Flex, 10 Tubridge, 4 Surpass Streamline) were implanted in 60 patients. Incidence of procedure-related adverse events was 8.3% (5/60), including 3 with incomplete stent apposition, 1 with intraoperative bleeding, 1 with aneurysm neck not covered by stent; incidence of early postprocedural complications was 6.7% (4/60), including 3 with hemorrhagic complication and 1 with ischemic complication. DSA follow-up ([22.7±16.8] months) was completed in 54 patients; aneurysm healed rate was 83.3% (45/54). First DSA follow-up 6 months after surgery showed that in-stent restenosis was 7.4% (4/54), of which 2 deteriorated to parent vessel occlusion at 2- and 3-year after procedure, respectively. A total of 78 branch arteries were covered by FD devices, and only 1 (1.3%, 1/78) demonstrated branch artery occlusion at last follow-up, without clinical symptoms.Conclusion:The complications of complex intracranial aneurysms after intervention with FD devices should be recognized; incomplete stent apposition is the main procedure-related adverse event, and hemorrhagic complication mainly appear in the early postprocedural period; in-stent restenosis should be vigilant during follow-up.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the impact of the regeneration of interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC) on the conduction of slow wave and gastric emptying in rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy.

METHODSTwenty male SD rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group consisted of ten rats undergoing Roux-en-Y gastrojejunostomy. The control group only underwent pyloric transection and anastomosis. Gastric scintigraphy was performed in the two groups respectively to measure the half time of gastric emptying (t1/2) at sixteen weeks after the surgical manipulations, and then the myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis were recorded. The study also observed the regeneration of ICC by the electron microscopy. The data of the 2 groups was compared by t test.

RESULTSIn the sixteenth postoperative week, the t1/2 was (23.5 ± 4.5) minutes for rats in the Roux-en-Y group and (10.2 ± 2.3) minutes for those in the control group, indicating delayed gastric emptying in the Roux-en-Y group (t=7.978, P=0.000), accompanied with the abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis. The morphological detection showed that ICC near the gastrojejunal anastomosis regenerated and reconstructed their network in the rats of the experimental group.

CONCLUSIONThe abnormal myoelectrical activities near the gastrojejunal anastomosis, basing on the regeneration and reconstruction of ICC, may make a significant delay on the gastric emptying.
