Objective To compare the effects of remifentanil infused at different rates on median effective target plasma concentration (EC50) of propofol inhibiting responses to laryngeal mask airway (LMA) insertion and determine the optimum infusion rate of remifentanil when used for fiberoptic bronchoscopy in pediatric patients.Methods Eighty-four ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ pediatric patients,aged 7 months-3 years,scheduled for elective fiberoptic bronchoscopy,were randomly assigned into 3 groups (n =28 each):normal saline group (group C),remifentanil infused at 3 ng· kg-1 ·min-1 group (group R1) and remifentanil infused at 5 ng· kg-1 · min-1 group (group R2).Responses to LMA insertion were defined as body movement and/or bucking during insertion.The initial target plasma concentrations of propofol were 5.2,4.8 and 4.4 μg/ml in groups C,R1 and R2,respectively.The target plasma concentration of propofol was determined by up-and-down sequential allocation.Each time the target plasma concentration increased/decreased by 0.2μg/ml.EC50 and 95 ％ confidence interval of propofol blunting responses to LMA insertion were determined by probit method.Results EC50 (95 ％ confidence interval) of propofol was 5.03 (4.92-5.12) μg/ml,4.71 (4.58-4.84) μg/rnl and 4.46 (4.20-4.94) μg/ml in groups C,R1 and R2,respectively.There was no significant difference in EC50 of propofol between groups R1 and C (P ＞ 0.05).EC50 of propofol was significantly lower in group R2 than in groups C and R1 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The infusion rate of remifentanil should not be lower than 5 ng· kg-1· min-1 when combined with propofol in pediatric patients undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy.

BACKGROUND: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) can be induced differentiating into osteoblasts and chondroblasts, DNA methylate depressant 5-azacytidine can induce BMMSCs expressing myogenic regulating factors: Myf5 and myopoietin, which involving in the differentiation of BMMSCs into myoblasts.OBJECTIVE: Muscular traumatic fluid containing the highest protein content was screened out and co-cultured with BMMSCs,in order to explore the inductive effect on the proliferation and myogeneis of BMMSCs.DESIGN : Standardized comparative study.SETTING .:At State Key Laboratory of Trauma, Bums and Combined Injury,Institute of Combined Injury, Medical College of Preventive Medicine, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: Muscular traumatic model was established on 18 Balb/C pure rats for the extraction of muscular traumatic fluid, the inductive effect of the fluid on BMMSC was then compared with 5-azacytidine.METHODS:This study was carried out at State Key Laboratory of Trauma,Burns and Combined Injury, Institute of Combined Injury, College of Preventive Medicine, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from April 2001 and September 2003. Bradford colorimetric was used to detect the protein content in the muscular traumatic fluid, and the fluid with the highest protein was used to co-culture with BMMSC, whose effect on the proliferation of BMMSC was measured with MTT methods at day 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.RT-PCR technique was used to detect the expression of myopoietin at day 6,with its myogenic effect compared with that of 5-azacytidine.fluid on BMMSC.eration of BMMSC: the proloferative activity of BMMSC in traumatic fluid genic effect of traumatic fluid on BMMSC: myopoietin could not be found expressed in traumatic fluid group, but strongly expressed in 5-azacytidine group.CONCLUSION: Muscular traumatic fluid can promote the proliferation of BMMSC, but has no myogenic effect.

Objective Acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) may cause lung injury.This study explores two factors that are associated with lung damage from ANP,the expression of tumor suppressor factor CYLD and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB).Methods 72 adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:sham operation,ANP,and GdCl3 treatment groups (n=24 for each group).A retrograde injection of 5％ sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreeatic duct of rats induced ANP,and the animals were killed 1,3,6,and 12 hours after the ANP induction.AMs were harvested by bronchoalveolar lavage technique,and TNF-a and IL-1β levels in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were evaluated.Lung tissue was checked with histological examinations,and the activity of NF-κB and CYLD in AM were measured by western blot.Results TNF-α and IL-1β secreted by AM were gradually elevated,peaked on the sixth hour,had maximums of (491.3 ±20.3)ng/L and (178.83±11.32)ng/L respectively,and decreased on the twelfth hour.The levels of TNF-α and IL-1β in the ANP group were significantly higher than the sham operation group (P＜0.05),and the GdC13 group levels were obviously lower than ANP group.In the sham operation group,the expression of NF-κB was low and CYLD was high.In the ANP group,when compared to the sham operation group,the expression of NF-κB rose after 3 hours and continued to rise with time progression (P＜0.05).In contrast,CYLD protein expression in the ANP group dropped after 3 hours and continued to gradually decrease (P＜0.05).The CYLD and NF-κB protein expression in GdCl3 groups had similar trends as the ANP group.GdCl3 group CYLD levels began to rise at 6 hours (P＜0.05),and NF κB levels began to fall at 1 hour (P＜0.05).The expression of NF-κB and CYLD possessed a negative correlation in both the ANP and GdCl3 groups (r =-0.918,r=-0.723,P＜ 0.01).Conclusions Therefore,in acute lung injury associated with acute pancreatitis,CYLD expression decreased with evident phases,such as a decrease in levels after 3 hours,and NF κB expression increased.Also,GdCl3 may be responsible for upregulation of CYLD expression and downregulation of NF-κB expression,and confirmed that CYLD had a negative effect on NF-κB.Perhaps GdCl3 could be used in the future to ameliorate the lung injury associated with ANP.

Objective To study the mechanism of adaptive immunity against Rhizopus arrihizus (R. arrihizus) infections. Methods Bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were separated from C57BL/6 mice and Card9-/- mice and then were cultured in vitro. Resting spores and swollen spores of R. arrihizus were in vitro co-cultured with BMDCs with or without Syk inhibition. Secretion of cytokines ( IL-23, IL-1βand IL-12) was analyzed by ELISA after 24 hours of culture. Na?ve T cells derived from C57BL/6 mice were in vitro co-cultured with spore-stimulated BMDCs for four days. Levels of IL-17A and IFN-γ in supernatants of cell culture were analyzed by ELISA. Flow cytometry was performed to analyze T cell differ-entiation. Confocal microscopy was used to observe the images of stained β-glucan on the surface of resting and swollen spores. Swollen spores were co-cultured with Dectin-1, Dectin-2, TLR2 and mannose receptor ( MMR) , and the binding results were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results Swollen spores but resting spores could induce the maturation of BMDCs and promote the secretion of cytokines (IL-23, IL-1βand IL-12). Co-culturing T cells with swollen spore-stimulated BMDCs enhanced their differentiation to Th17 and Th1. In addition, swollen spores promoted the secretion of Th1-related cytokine ( IFN-γ) and Th17-related cytokine (IL-17A). Adding Syk inhibitor to Card9-/-BMDCs or wild type BMDCs significantly inhibited the secretion of cytokines and T cell differentiation, especially in the Card9-/- group. β-glucan was overserved on the surface of swollen spores, but not on resting spores. On the surface of swollen spores existed pathogen associated molecular patterns ( PAMPs) that could bind with Dectin-1 and TLR2. Conclusion Swollen spores of R. arrihizus could active BMDCs to secrete cytokines of IL-23, IL-1β and IL-12 and trigger T cell responses in vitro. The possible mechanism might be associated with β-glucan exposed on the surface of swollen spores that binds with Dectin-1. The responses between BMDCs and R. arrihizus are Syk-Card9-dependent.
