Objective To investigate the expression and significance of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) in hyperoxia-induced lung injury of new-born rats. Methods Totally 160 rats at the age of 12 h were randomly and equally divided into air control group, hyperoxia-induced lung injury group, hyperoxia-induced lung injury+SB203580 group and hyperoxia-induced lung injury + normal saline group. After the injury was inflicted, SB203580 or normal saline at same volume was given intraperitoneally at 5 mg/kg. After the rats were executed at the time points of 12, 24, 72 h and 1 week after the model establishment, the right upper lungs were resected for histopathology, right below lungs for wet weight/dry weight, and left lungs for detecting the expression of p38MAPK by Western blot analysis. Results Hyperoxia-induced lung injury model were established successfully after 72 h by exposure to hyperoxia. No p38MAPK expression was observed in air control group. In hyperoxia-induced lung injury group p38MAPK was detected from 12 h, reached to the peak at 72 h, and decreased 1 week later, and its expression was significantly higher in this group and normal saline group than in SB203580 group. Conclusion p38MAPK is involved in the process of hyperoxia-induced lung injury, and the injury can be relieved by treatment of SB203580.

Objective To observe the influence of Buyang Huanwu Decoction ( BYHWD) on the inhibition of rat myocardial H9C2 cell activity and SH2-containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 ( SHP-1) activity induced by trastuzumab, and to explore the possible regulatory mechanism after observing the intervention of BYHWD on rat myocardial H9C2 cell transfected with SHP-1 or SHPC/S-1 gene. Methods The eukaryotic expression vectors pcDNA3.1 (+)- SHP-1 and pcDNA3.1 (+) -SHPC/S–1 were constructed and then were transfected to rat myocardial H9C2 cells using the method of liposome transfection. The cells with positive clones were screened out with G418, and then were cultured with trastuzumab for maintaining growth. Using quantitative RT-PCR, we detected the expression of SHP-1 gene and SHPC/S - 1 gene in rat myocardial H9C2 cells. The phosphatase activity analysis was used for observing the regulatory effect of BYHWD on SHP-1 in myocardial cells. Furthermore, we observed the apoptosis of rat myocardial H9C2 cells by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay after treatment with BYHWD. Results Sequencing results indicated the successful construction of eukaryotic expression vectors, which had stable expression in myocardial H9C2 cells even under the intervention of trastuzumab. The results of phosphatase analysis showed that H9C2-SHP-1 had the highest activities of phosphatase, but the activities were decreased after the intervention with BYHWD ( P<0.05) . The results of MTT assay also showed the apoptotic rate of H9C2-SHP-1 cells was decreased after treatment with BYHWD ( P <0.05) . Conclusion BYHWD can promote the proliferation of myocardial H9C2 cells inhibited by trastuzumab, and can regulate the expression of SHP-1 in myocardial cells, which will supply reference to the further study of treatment of trastuzumab-induced cardiac toxicity.

Objective To observe the hindpaw withdrawal threshold (HWT), and the ultrastructure and expression of glia cell line-de-rived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) in sciatic nerve (SN) in chronic constriction injury (CCI) rats after pulsed radiofrequency (PRF). Meth-ods 30 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into sham modeling-sham treating (SS) group, CCI-Sham treating (CS) group and CCI-PRF (CP) group. The right SNs of the rats in the CS and CP groups were ligated, and it was separated without ligation in the SS group. The CP group accepted PRF at the ligation 14 days after modeling, while the electrodes were placed without electricity in the SS and CS groups. Their HWT was measured before and 1, 7, 14 days after modeling, and 1, 7, 14 days after treatment. The right SN of ligation was observed under electron microscope 14 days after treatment, meanwhile, the GDNF expression was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results HWT was significantly shorter in the CS and CP groups than in the SS group after modeling, and it increased in the CP group 14 days after treatment compared with that of the CS group (P<0.01). The degeneration of SN significantly improved in the CP group compared with the CS group, while the expression of GDNF increased compared with that in the CS and SS groups (P<0.01). Conclusion PRF could relieve the CCI-induced neuropathic pain by upregulating the GDNF expression in the SN to prevent the SN from injury.

Objective To investigate the role of NMDA receptors in central medial thalamus (CMT) in the unconscious?ness induced by general anesthesia. Methods A total of 60 rat models for microinfusion were assigned into 4 groups (n=15 for each group). After induction with propofol, 10 mmol/L (NMDA10 group), 20 mmol/L (NMDA 20 group) and 40 mmol/L (NMDA40 group) of NMDA and normal saline (group C) with equal volume were microinfused into CMT. The incidence of purposeful movement and recovery time of righting reflex were observed in each group respectively. Infusion sites were local?ized by histological method. Results When the microinfusion site localized within CMT, comparing with group C, the recov?ery time of righting reflex reduced notably in three NMDA groups (P<0.05). The recovery time was significantly shorter in NMDA20 group and NMDA40 group than that of NMDA10 group. The incidence of purposeful movement during propofol an?esthesia was higher in NMDA20 group and NMDA40 group than that of group C (P<0.05). When the microinfusion site lo?calized out of CMT, the recovery time of righting reflex was remarkably longer than that within CMT in three NMDA groups (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the incidence of purposeful movement and recovery time between four group (P>0.05). Conclusion Microinfusion of NMDA agonist into CMT reverses propofol anesthesia, indicating that NMDA receptor in CMT may contribute to the propofol-induced unconsciousness.

OBJECTIVE:
To determine the expression of palate, lung, and nasal epithelial clone (PLUNC) in na sal polyps (NP) and evaluate its association with clinical severity.
METHOD:
Twenty-eight NP patients (primary polyp, 15; recurrent polyp, 13) and 16 normal controls (healthy uncinate process) were enrolled, the expression of PLUNC was examined in nasal tissues by immunohistochemistric staining, quantitative PCR and ELISA respectively. The protein level of PLUNC in nasal polyps was correlated with nasal symptom score (nasal congestion and rhinorrhea, respectively).
RESULT:
PLUNC was mainly distributed in the epithelial layer and submucosal glands in nasal tissues. The staining intensity and mRNA level of PLUNC were significantly decreased in polyp tissues than in normal controls (P < 0.01). The protein levels of PLUNC were 0.33 +/- 0.11 and 0.15 +/- 0.05 in primary and recurrent polyp tissues (P < 0.01), and were 0.32 +/- 0.14 and 0.19 +/- 0.07 in small-size and big-size polyp tissues (P < 0.05). The protein level of PLUNC in polyp tissues significantly correlated with both nasal congestion score and rhinorrhea score (r = -0.51 and r = -0.57, P < 0. 01).
CONCLUSION
Decreased PLUNC in polyp tissues indicated that impaired innate immunity may account for the pathogenic process of NP. Thus upregulating PLUNC may represent a promising therapeutic target for the management of NP.

Objective To study the value of CT angiography(CTA) and three dimensional contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography(3D CE-MRA) in the diagnosis of arteriosclerotic occlusive disease (ASO) of lower limb and evaluate arterial stenosis. Methods Thirty-eight patients clinically suspected ASO were studied with CTA and3D CE-MRA,twenty-two patients underwent DSA at the same time. The degree of seriousness of the stenosis shown by various imaging techniques were analyzed respectively. Results Using the DSA images as the standard reference, the sensitivity and specificity of CTA were 97.3% ,99. 1%, and MRA both were 100.0% in detecting the segments occluded. With regard the detection of segments that had more than moderate stenosis ,the sensitivity and specificity of CT were 99.3% ,97.6% ,and MRA were 97.9% ,96.4%. The degree of seriousness of the stenosis shown by MRA was overestimated than CTA on the segments that had more than moderate stenosis(x2 =5.80,P <0. 05). Conclusion CTA and 3D CE-MRA were reliable method in diagnosis of ASO.
