Objective To investigate the role and mechanism of simvastatin on colonic fibrosis in rats with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonic acid (TNBS) induced colitis.Methods Forty-eight healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were evenly divided into six groups:control group,TNBS group,simvastatin treated group Ⅰ,group Ⅱ (from zero to 21 days after modeling,simvastatin 5 mg/kg or simvastatin 20 mg/kg treated),group Ⅲ and group Ⅳ (from seven to 21 days after modeling,simvastatin 5 mg/kg or 20 mg/kg treated).Body weight and disease activity index (DAI) of the rats were inspected,and general colon,histological injury and fibrosis were scored.The expressions of collagen types Ⅰ and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) at mRNA level were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).The expressions of collagen types Ⅰ,CTGF and phosphorylation of myosin phosphatase target subunit-1 (p-MYPT-1) at protein level were determined by Western blotting.The data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA.Results Compared with control group,the colon length shortened,while colon weight,DAI score,general colon score,histological injury and fibrosis score significantly increased in TNBS group.And the expressions of collagen types Ⅰ also obviously increased.After intervention of simvastatin,both the colon length and weight of rats were improved.The DAI score,general score,histological injury and fibrosis score were lower than those of TNBS group.The expressions of collagen types Ⅰ,CTGF and p-MYPT-1 (group Ⅰ:0.68±0.22 ; group Ⅱ:0.59 ± 0.27 ; group Ⅲ:0.71 ± 0.20 ; group Ⅳ:0.59± 0.25) in colonic tissue were all lower than those of TNBS group (F=5.169,P＜0.05).There were no statistical significance among four groups (al1 P＞0.05).Conclusion Simvastatin can effectively prevent TNBS-induced rat colitis from colonic fibrosis,the mechanism may be related with Rho-kinase inhibition and down-regulation of CTGF over-expression.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of prophylactic use of vitamin B6 with chlorpheniramine on the adverse reactions in fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA). METHODS:326 patients with FFA were randomly divided into observation group and control group. Observation group was orally given Vitamin B6 tablet 10 mg 30 min before angiography+Chlorpheniramine maleate tablet 4 mg;control group was orally given Metoclopramide tablet 10 mg+Chlorpheniramine maleate tablet 4 mg. The occurrence time and incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed and correlation analysis was conducted. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in the occurrence time of adverse reactions between 2 groups(P>0.05);the incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was significantly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The correlation analysis of adverse reactions in control group showed the occurrence of adverse reactions had no correlation with age and gender of patients(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Prophylactic use of vitamin B6 with chlorphenir arnine can reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions in FFA.

Objective The high energy ion bombardment technique is applied to enhancing the adhesion of the tetrahedral amorphous carbon (TAC) films deposited by the filtered cathode vacuum arc (FCVA). Methods The abrasion method, scratch method, heating and shaking method as well as boiling salt solution method is used to test the adhesion of the TAC films on various material substrates. Results The test results show that the adhesion is increased as the ion bombardment energy increases. However, if the bombardment energy were over the corresponding optimum value, the adhesion would be enhanced very slowly for the harder material substrates and drops quickly, for the softer ones. Conclusion The optimum values of the ion bombardment energy are larger for the harder materials than that for the softer ones.
