Objective To observe the role and mechanism of CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) -2in the injured lung induced by ischmia-reperfusion (IR) of hind limbs of rat.Methods The rat model of lung injury was made by ischemia in hind limbs of rat for two hours and then reperfusion for two hours as well.There were 40 SD rats randomly ( random number) divided into 5 groups ( n =8 ),namely sham ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) group,sham I/R + CORM-2 group,I/R group,I/R + CORM-2 group and I/R + DMSO (Dimethylsulfoxide) group. Rats in sham I/R group underwent laparotomy without infrarenal aorta occlusion.The lung tissue structure,polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) count,wet-to-dry weight ratio (W/D), malondialdehyde (MDA) content, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ( ICAM-1 ),nuclear IκBα degradation and NF-κB activity in the lung were measured.Results Compared with the sham I/R group,the number of PMNs in lung,W/D,MDA content,MPOactivity,ICAM-1 and NF-κB activity significantly increased in I/R group,whereas nuclear IκBα decreased (P < 0.01).Compared with the I/R group,the number of PMNs in lung,W/D,MDA content,MPO activity and ICAM-1 significantly decreased in I/R + COMR-2 group ( P < 0.01 ), while nuclear IkBαincreased. Conclusions These data demonstrate that CORM-2 attenuates limb I/R-induced lung injury by inhibiting ICAM-1 protein,NF-κB pathway and the leukocytes sequestration in the lung following limb I/R in rats,suggesting that CORM-2 could be used as one of the most valuable therapeutic agents.

AIM: To study the signal pathway involved in up-regulation of LPS-induced HO-1 expression by CCK-8. METHODS: Forty-two SD rats were divided into 7 groups (six rats each) randomly as follows: control group, LPS group, LPS+SP600125 (JNK-specific inhibitor) group, CCK-8+LPS group, CCK-8+LPS+SP600125 group, CCK-8 group and CCK-8 +SP600125 group. Lungs from the rats in these 7 groups were excised 6 h after the agents were administered. HO-1 mRNA expression was examined by RT-PCR. The protein expression of HO-1 was detected by Western blotting and immunofluorescence flow cytometry (FCM). RESULTS: There were significant positive expression of HO-1 mRNA in LPS group compared to control group. CCK-8 enhanced LPS-induced HO-1 mRNA expression and CCK-8 alone induced HO-1 mRNA expression as well. The mRNA expressions of HO-1 in LPS group, CCK-8+LPS group and CCK-8 group were 3.01 (P<0.01), 5.88 (P<0.01) and 3.45 (P<0.01) times as many as that in control group, respectively. SP600125 inhibited the mRNA expression of HO-1 induced by CCK-8 and (or) LPS. The change of HO-1 protein expression was in accordance with that of HO-1 mRNA expression by Western blotting and immunofluorescence FCM. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that JNK/c-Jun signal pathway plays an important role in the up-regulation of LPS-induced HO-1 expression by CCK-8.

Objective:
To develop an approach for simultaneous detection of multi-mycotoxins in fresh fruits, so as to provide technical supports for mycotoxins surveillance in fresh fruits.
Methods:
Fresh fruits were collected from markets and homogenized. Then, 2 g of fresh fruits were added with 10 mL of 0.1% formic acid ( 99∶1, v/v ) in acetonitrile and wortexed for 10 min. Following extraction with 1 g of sodium chloride and 4 g of anhydrous sodium sulfate, samples were centrifuged and 5 mL of the supernatant was cleaned up with 25 mg C18. Following centrifugation, the supernatant was dried under nitrogen. The residue was dissolved in 300 μL of methanol-acetonitrile mixture solution ( 1∶1, v/v ), and mixed evenly in 700 μL of the distilled water. Samples were then eluted in gradient series of 0.1% formic acid and 5 mmol ammonium formate and methanol-acetonitrile mixture solution ( 1∶1, v/v ). The 15 mycotoxins were determined using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( LC-MS/MS ) with electrospray ion source (ESI+/ESI-) under multiple reaction monitoring. In addition, a matrix-matched standard curve was employed for quantitative analysis.
Results:
There was a good linear relationship for 15 mycotoxins at concentrations of 0.25 to 10 ng/mL ( R2>0.992 ), the LC-MS/MS method showed the detection limits of 0.1-1.0 μg/kg, the spiked recovery rates of 71.68%-117.50%, and the relative standard deviations ( RSDs ) of 0.01%-13.60%. The detection rate of mycotoxins was 27.09% in 203 fresh fruits sold in markets.
Conclusions
The optimized LC-MS/MS method can be used for simultaneous determination of multi-mycotoxins in fresh fruits.

AIM:To investigate the pathologic changes in the brain and its underlying mechansims during ischemia-reperfusion of rat hindlimbs.METHODS:SD rats were divided into the normal(N), sham(S), 4 h ischemia without reperfusion(I), and 4 h ischemia-2, 6,12,18 or 24 h reperfusion (I-R) groups at random. Ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion were established with the occlusion or/and re-opening of the terminal of abdominal aorta, respectively. The pathologic changes in the brain tissue were morphologically observed. The expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA, and iNOS protein and the nitrotyrosine, a marker of peroxynitrite (ONOO-),in the brain tissue were detected with RT-PCR and immunohistochemical technique, respectively. The brain superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents were spectraphotometrically measured.RESULTS:Hydropic degeneration and severe injury to neurons were only showed in I-R group. Expressions of iNOS mRNA and protein were demonstrated in I-R, I and S groups, which were maximal in I-R 6 h group. iNOS positive neurons and microglias were more spread in I-R 6 h group than those in S and I groups. NT positive neurons were localized in the cerebral cortex and hippcampus of I-R 6 h group. The contents of MDA markedly increased, while the activity of SOD significantly decreased in I-R 6 h group compared to the N, S and I groups. There were no significant changes in MDA and SOD in N, S and I groups.CONCLUSION:Severe ischemia-reperfusion of rat hindlimbs could induce brain injury, and its mechanisms might be related to enhanced expression of iNOS-NO-ONOO- in the brain.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of Stage Ⅱ nasopharyngeal carcinoma(NPC) trea-ted by conventional fractionation radiotherapy. Methods From January 1990 to May 1999,216 patients with untreated stage Ⅱ NPC were irradiated by 6 MV photons and 9-12 MeV electrons with linear accelera-tor. Of 26 patients with residual lesions after 70 Gy irradiation, 18 received intracavitary brachytherapy and 8 received stereotactic irradiation boost. Results The 10-year overall survival (OS) of patients with T2 N0 M0, T1N1M0 and T2N1M0 disease were 90%, 80% and 75.2% (χ2 = 3.26, P =0. 200), respectively. The corresponding disease-free survival(DFS) and distant metastasis-free survival(DMFS) were 79% ,60% and 62.6% (χ2 = 5.87, P = 0.053) ;90% ,74% and 68.0% (χ2 = 7.09, P = 0. 030), respectively. In uni-variate analysis, T stage had no impact on OS, DFS or DMFS (χ2 = 0.44, P = 0. 500 ; χ2 = 0.44, P = 0.500 ; χ2 = 0.25, P = 0. 610), while N stage significantly influenced DFS and DM FS (χ2 = 5.86, P = 0. 015 ; χ2 = 5.31 ,P = 0. 021). Multivariate analysis showed that N stage was an independent prognostic factor for DFS and DMFS(χ2=5.03,P=0.025;χ2=6.47,P=0.01). Conclusions Stage Ⅱ NPCwithposifivelymph node treated by radiotherapy alone is inadequate. In order to improve DFS and DMS, combined chemo-radio-therapy should be considered.

Objective To investigate the clinical features,treatment outcome and prognosis of pa tients with nasopharyngeal adenoid cystic carcinoma(ACC).Methods From March 1963 to August 2002, 33 patients with ACC were retrospectively reviewed.Among them,13 received multimedality therapy(S + R in 9 and R +S in 4) and the remaining 20 received radiotherapy alone.The interval between the first visit and clinical diagnosis was 12 months(1.0-36.4 months).The misdiagnosis rate was 55% (18/33),with the most common error of otitis media.The clinical symptoms of ACC were similar to those of squamous carcino ma in nasopharynx,though the cervical lymph node metastasis was rare(12%) and cranial nerve invasion was common (58%). ResultsAfter a median follow-up of 60.8 months (5.0-245.2 months),the 5-and 10-year overall survival rates,free-disease survival rates,local regional control rates and metastasis-free sur vival rates were 66% and 29% ,41% and 27% ,61% and 40% ,62% and 62% ,respectively.Among the 20 patients(61%) with recurrence,15 had local regional failure(13 in situ and 2 in cervical lymph node) ,and 9 had distant metastasis(5 in the lung,2 in the lung and bone,1 in the liver and I in the bone).Univariate analysis showed that clinical stage was a prognostic factor(Ⅰ + II vs Ⅲ + Ⅳ,P = 0.009),while treatment modality(radiotherapy alone vs multimodality therapy) was not. ConclusionsNasopharyngeal ACC is a locally aggressive disease with a long course.Either radiotherapy alone or muhimodality therapy(S + R/R + S) is effective in the treatment.
