AIM: To confirm the effects of capillary endothelium injury in the lung with ischemia reperfusion. METHODS: The rabbits pulmonary models of ischemia reperfusion (I-R)injury were established. Plasma nitric oxide and endothelin levels, arterial oxygen tension and wet/dry weight ratios were determined in different periods in control and I-R groups, and the pulmonary ultrastructure abnormities were analyzed under electromicroscope. RESULTS: The plasma levels of NO and ET-1 in I-R animals increased significantly ,compared with those in sham treated control groups. The level of ET-1 had significantly negative correlation with PaO 2 and positive correlation with the value of the wet/dry weight ratios. The swelling and karyopyknosis of capillary endothelium in the lung with I-R groups were observed in ischemia periods. The injuries of endotheliums and typeⅠandⅡ alveolar cells in 0 5 h of reperfusion were more severe than those in ischemia time, and the injuries began to repair in 2 h of reperfusion time. CONCLUSION: In the I-R group, pulmonary capillary endothelium have been injuried, which may play a prominent role in I-R injury and dysfunction of the lung.

Background and qurpose:Docetaxel is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents developed in the past few years and has been used for the treatment of various cancers including lung cancer. Drug resistance to docetaxel is one of the main factors accounting for the failure of chemotherapy. This study was done to establish a human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A1 with the characterization of docetaxel resistance, to investigate its biological mechanism of drug resistance and how to reverse the resistance. Methods:A docetaxel resistant human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A1/Docetaxel was induced by continuously exposing human lung adenocarcinoma cell line SPC-A1 to gradually increasing doses of docetaxel. The multidrug resistance of SPC-A1/Docetaxel was evaluated by MTT assay. The distribution of cell cycle and rhodamine 123 accumulation in the two cell lines were detected by flow cytometry. Growth fraction was calculated by cytometry, and differentiation of genetics between drug resistance cell line and its parent cell line was analyzed by karyotype analysis.Results:Index number of drug resistance (IR) of SPC-A1/Docetaxel were 13.20, 2.18,1.12,1.39,1.38,0.93, 10.14 and 2.12 to docetaxel, paclitaxel, pharmorubicin, cisplatin,carboplatin, gemzar, vinorelbine and etoposide , respectively. Flow cytometry analysis showed G1/G0 arrest in SPC-A1/Docetaxel cell lines and there was no difference in terms of G2 cell proportion between SPC-A1/Docetaxel and SPC-A1 cell lines. Rhodamine concentration in SPC-A1/Docetaxel cells were markedly lower than that in SPC-A1 cells(806.34?0.49 Vs. 1382.26?0.32). Cell doubling time of SPC-A1/Docetaxel cells and SPC-A1 cells were 35.1 and 27.4 hours, respectively, with no difference in terms of genetics between the two cell lines.Conclusions:The SPC-A1/Docetaxel cell line showed high resistance to docetaxel, and had the characteristic of multidrug resistance. The cell line could be useful for the study of drug resistant mechanism and its reversal of docetaxel.

In recent years,the research of non-contact biomedical monitoring has continuous development and progress.This review gives an overview of the research status of heart,lung and brain non-contact monitoring methods.The correlation techniques of capacitance electrocardiogram,magnetic induction,radar non-contact monitoring of heart and lung,and non-contact monitoring of brain are analyzed comprehensively.Capacitance electrocardiogram monitors the heart and lung activities useing effect of change in capacitance between the electrodes.Magnetic induction monitors the heart and lung activities useing the Maxwell principle,while radar monitoring the heart and lung activities uses the Doppler effects.Non-contact monitoring of brain adopts the magnetic induction tomography imaging technology.Then elaborate related research at home and abroad,and summarize the advantages and disadvantages of these monitoring methods on the basis of the analysis of monitoring principles.Finally foreground that may dominate this area of new equipment for heart,lung and brain non-contact monitoring in the future is expected.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of splanchnicectomy for pain palliation with advanced pancreatic carcinoma.Methods Altogether 27 cases were treated from January 2005 to February 2008,retrospective study was used to analyze the clinical data of them.All the patients had diverse extent pain,among these 16 cases who had underwent splanchnicectomy (therapy group),others were in control group.Results Pain extent was scored according to visual analogue scale (VAS),preoperative score of therapy group (6.06±1.93) scores,postoperative score 3 months(2.67±1.68) scores,6 months(2.69±1.75) scores,the discrepancy had statistical significance (P<0.01),preoperative score of control group (5.91±1.87) scores,postoperative score 3 months(5.11±2.03) scores,6 months(5.33±2.25) scores,the discrepancy had no statistical significance.Intergroups contrast,showing significant difference (P<0.05).Conclusion For the patients who request to deal with primary disease,splanchnicectomy is manipulated easy,short of complication,significantly relief of pain,and deserve to be spreaded.
