1.Role of 3-nitrotynosine in Escherichia coli LPS-induced vascular hyporeactivity in rats
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(01):-
AIM: To observe the pathological role of 3-nitrotynosine (3-NT) on Escherichia coli LPS-induced vascular hyporeactivity in rats and the therapeutic effect of antioxidants. METHODS: Forty male SD rats weighting from 200 g to 250 g were randomly divided into four groups: the control group (n=10); LPS shock group (n=10); uric acid-treated group (n=10); melatonin-treated group (n=10). 6 h after LPS shock, phenylephrine (0.5-2.5 ?g?kg -1) was applied intravenously to all groups and the percentage increase in MAP was detected, respectively. The concentration-response curve of aorta rings from all groups rats were obtained by cumulative addition of phenylephrine (PE), and PE E_ max, EC_ 50 were calculated. The concentrations of plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), nitrate/nitrite and 3-NT were assayed in all groups 6 h after LPS shock. RESULTS: The MAP level induced by PE significantly decreased to 54.60% in LPS shock rats compared with the control (P
2.Effects and Mechanism of Ginseng Polysaccharides on Glycosaminoglycan Synthesis in Rat Chondrocytes in vitro
China Pharmacist 2017;20(4):647-652
Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanism of Ginseng polysaccharides (GPS) on glycosaminoglycan synthesis in rat chondrocytes in vitro.Methods:Chondrocytes isolated from knee joint cartilage of rats were subcultured.After monolayers were established,chondrocytes induced by 20 ng·ml-1 IL-1β were treated with GPS respectively at the concentration of 2,10 and 50 ng ·ml-1for 48 h.The effects of GPS on chondrocytes were analyzed using MTT assay for chondrocyte proliferation and 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue assay for GAG content.mRNA content in xylosyltransferase-Ⅰ(XylT-Ⅰ),galactosyltransferase-Ⅰ(GalT-Ⅰ),galactosyltransferase Ⅱ(GalT-II) and galactose-β-1,3-glucuronosyltransferase Ⅰ(GlcAT-Ⅰ) and that in matrix-degrading enzymes matrix metalloproteinases-3 (MMP-3) and aggrecanase-1and aggrecanase-2 was also detected.Results:GPS had no toxic or proliferating effect on chondrocytes at all observed concentrations.GPS at the concentrations of 10 ng·ml-1 and 50 ng·ml-1 up-regulated GAG synthesis (P<0.01).10 ng·ml-1 GPS enhanced the mRNA expression of XylT-Ⅰ (P<0.01),and 50 ng·ml-1 GPS enhanced the mRNA expression of XylT-Ⅰ,GalT-Ⅰ and GalT-II (P<0.05,P<0.01).GPS did not inhibit the mRNA expression of matrix-degrading enzymes MMP-3 and aggrecanase-1and aggrecanase-2 enhanced by IL-1β.Conclusion:GPS can improve GAG synthesis in IL-1β stimulated chondrocytes in vitro,which is due to the expression promotion of GAG synthesis enzymes without the expression inhibition of matrix-degrading enzymes.
3.Effect of Burn Injury on the Contractile and Relaxation function of Isolated Perfusion Heart in Guinea-pigs
Journal of Third Military Medical University 1988;0(06):-
By mean of the isolated perfused working heart model, the changes of myocardial contractile and relaxation functions, ventricular cell action potentials, myocardial oxygen and glucose consumptions etc. were observed at 1st,3rd, 8th and 24th h after burn injury in the guinea-pigs inflictedly III degree burn injury on 35% TBA. The results indicate that. 1 ) The contractile and relaxation functions go through a time course of 'normal-decrease-recover', i.e. the cardiac functions show a normal level within 1 h after burn injury. Then they are depressed gradually,and to the lowest at 8th h or so, after burn injury. The cardiac functions recover partly at 24th h after burn injury. It suggests that there is a repaired mechanism by itself in heart of the burn animal; 2 ) The depression of myocardial contractile and relaxation functions are related with depression of the oxygen consumption rather than reduce of intaking in nutrients; 3) the influencing factors of burn injury on the coronary flow and electrical activity of myocardial cells could be removed easily by the perfusate. It shows that these effects may be result from the extracardiac neurohumoral factors.

Chinese Journal of Clinical Psychology 1993;0(01):-
Objective: To investigate the relationship between rater-ratee similarities/differences in some individual characteristics and organizational citizenship behavior(OCB) appraisal. Methods: 103 vertical dyads were assessed by Personality Scale for Enterprise Managers and Chinese OCB Scale. Results: There existed significantly positive correlations between similarities in seven demographic indices and other-oriented OCB dimensions; differences in personality traits correlated significantly negatively with some dimensions of OCB appraisal; age difference had non-liner regression relationship with other-oriented OCB dimensions.Conclusion: Similarities/differences of individual characteristics related closely with OCB appraisal.
5.Analysis of the Relative Factors and Prognosis of Upper Gastrointestinal Bleeding in Patients with Hepatic Cirrhosis
Journal of Chinese Physician 2001;0(05):-
Objective To explore the relative factors and prognosis of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. Methods The clinical data of upper gastrointestinal bleeding of 502 inpatients from January 1990 to September 2004 were statistically analyzed. Results Males and middle-aged patients with hepatic cirrhosis occurred upper gastrointestinal bleeding more frequently, and the most commom causes were vessel rupture of esophage or gastric varices, portal hypertensive gastropathy, and peptic ulcer. The most common complications of upper gastrointestinal bleeding were severe bleeding shock, hepatic encephaopathy, hepatorenal syndrome,etc. Drinking wine and NSAIDs were the most common inducements of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. The efficient rate of medical management was 89.84%,the death rate was 10.16%, and the most common death causes were shock of severe bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, and hepatorenal syndrome. Conclusion Sex,age, and season,etc. were related to upper gastrointestinal bleeding in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. Bleeding causes, liver function, complications, and age, etc. were factors affecting prognosis.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;(10):949-954
In recent years,immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-related disease) has received increasingly attention in medical community as a novel clinical entity.Although its clinical manifestation varies,high serum IgG4 concentration and numerous IgG4-positive plasma c(c)ll infiltration are the common characteristics.IgG4-related disease involves many human organs,and most one is pancreas,followed by parotid gland,bile duct,liver,lung,lymph node and so on,and orbital involvement is relatively rare.Current initial research shows that there is certain association between orbital disease with IgG4,and these diseases mainly include benign lymphoepithelial lesion,idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor,Castleman ' s disease,xanthogranuloma,Rosai-Dorfman disease etc..The researching progression in the relationship between IgG4 and orbital diseases is reviewed.

Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(6):571-576
Idiopathic orbital inflammatory pseudotumor (IOIP) is a common ophthalmic disease with uncertain etiology and pathogenesis.It charactarized by chronic inflammatory cell infiltration and connective tissue proliferation.At present,its clinical treatments mainly include pharmacotherapy,radiation therapy and surgery,and the primary treating drugs include glucocorticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents.The mainstay of therapy is systemic glucocorticosteroids,although there is an increasing trend toward the use of alkylating agents,antimetabolites,monoclonal antibodies and other immunosuppressive agents.The progress in clinical treatment of IOIP was reviewed.
10.Liver fibrosis of chronic HBV infected patients older than 40-year-old with normal ALT
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2009;25(3):182-183
Objective To analyze the stages of liver fibrosis in patients aged older than 40 with normal ALT.Methods 84 patients with chronic HBV infected were investigated in this study. Liver function, HBeAg, HBVDNA, serum liver fibrosis indexes were tested. And liver biopsy was taken in all the patients and the tissues were stained with HE and Masson.Results 73.4% patients were at fibrosis stage 2-4. The serum fibrosis indexes correlated with the fibrosis stage of liver histology. While the levels of HBeAg and HBVDNA didn't correlate with the severity of liver fibrosis.Conclusion Liver fibrosis of patients older than 40-year-old should be analyzed synthetically with many clinical indexes. These patients should be administered with antifibrosis therapy to prevent the progression of liver cirrhosis.
