1.Lipopolysaccharide stimulates TNFα and endothelin- 1 secretion from cultured rat kupffer cells
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2000;16(12):1298-1300
AIM:To investigate LPS(lipopolysaccharide)stimulated cytokine secretion from normal rat kupffer cells in vitro. METHODS: Kupffer cells were isolated from wistar rats liver and cultured. Tumor necrosis factor - α (TNF- α) and endothelin- 1 (ET- 1 ) secreted by LPS stimulated kupffer cells were detected. RESULTS: LPS had an stimulative effect on kupffer cell activity. LPS in definite concentrations promoted kupffer cell secretion. CONCLUSION: LPS promotes kupffer cell secretion, which may be associated with liver injury induced by LPS.

Cancer Research and Clinic 2013;25(8):550-551,554
Objective To compare the efficacy and adverse reactions between floxuridine (FUDR) and 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) treatment of gestational trophoblastic tumor.Methods 111 trophoblastic tumor patients of Ⅱ-Ⅲ stage including 62 cases of in vasive mole and 49 cases of choriocarcinoma were analyzed retrospectinely.The patients were divided into FUDR+KSM group (55 cases) and 5-Fu+KSM group (56 cases).FUDR was according to 23 mg/kg·d phleb instillation,keeping 8 hours,KSM was according to 6 μg/kg·d phleb instillation,keeping 4 hours.5-Fu was according to 26 mg/kg·d phleb instillation,keeping 8 hours.KSM was according to 6 μg/kg·d phleb instillation,keeping 4 hours.Both the two programs were 8 days.Results The cure rate was 98 % (54/55) in FUDR+DSM group,and that was 96 % (54/56) in 5-Fu+KSM group.The incidence rates of phlebophlogosis,dental ulcer and alopecie in the FUDR+KSM group were obviously lower than those in 5-Fu+KSM group [29.1% (16/55) vs 85.7 % (48/56),54.5 % (30/55) vs 98.2 %(55/56),21.8 % (12/55) vs 89.3 % (50/56),all P < 0.05].Both the FUDR+KSM group and the 5-Fu+KSM group bad significant differences at phlebophlogosis dental ulcer and alopecie in Ⅲ stages.Conclusion The curative effect of the FUDR is aimilar with the 5-Fu,but the drug consumption of the FUDR is less.The incidence rates of dental ulcer,alopecie,and phlebophlogosis are less,but myelosuppression and alvi profluvium are rcscmble between the two sets.

Objective To investigate the potential role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?) in apoptosis after combined liver and kidney transplantation in rats. Methods Eighty rats which had combined liver and kidney transplantation were randomly paired, were divided into study group (n=20) and control group (n=20). 40 ml of 4 ℃ sodium chloride and anti-TNF-? monoclonal antibody (30 ml was infused from portal veins to donated livers and 10 ml from renal arteries to donated kidneys) were infused to the study group (0.1 mg/kg weight),and the same quantity of 4 ℃ sodium chloride was infused the control group. Venous blood was drew at different phases after the transplantations to detect the function of kidney and liver. The level of TNF-? and the cell apoptosis were detected in the transplanted tissues of liver and kidney by ELISA and terminal deoxynucleotidy transferase mediated dTUP-biotin nick-end labeling (TUNEL). Results The levels of AST, ACT, Cr and BUN in the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group at the same phases (P

In order to evaluate the pathogenisis, definite the position and mechanism of ovarian dysfunction. Methods Pi-tuitarygonadal hormones ,-.P and prolactin (PRL) were measured in 25 premenopausal hemodialysis women using enzyme im-munoassay (E3A). Results Patients' serum PRL levels significantly elevated, FSFKLH levels also elevated, whereas P levels were obviously lower compared with normal women. Conclusion (1) Hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis was impaired in uremia women as indicated by the prevalence of acydicity and the failure of LH,E2 levels and marked low P levels. (2)In uremia women clomiphenum stimulation test was positive suggested that the pituitary-ovarian axis were normal, whereas hypothalamic was impaired. (3) Hyperprolactinemia, owing to increased pituitary prolactin secretion. Suppression with bromocriptine was unstable. (4) During dialysis, symptom treating is suitable rather than trigger the ovalation. Successful renal transplantation is the best treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of hepatic microcirculatory disturbance induced by intestinal endotoxemia in liver injury. Methods The model of rats with intestinal endotoxemia induced by thioacetamide(TAA) was established. 25 Male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups as normal control group (N), Heparin control group(H), TAA treated group(T), and TAA + heparin treated group(T +H). The changes of plasma biochemistry and hepatic histopathology were measured. Results The plasma endotoxin level, alanine transaminase (ALT) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in TAA treated rats were markedly higher than that in the control ones (P < 0.05), while plasma endotoxin level was lower ( P > 0.05) and ALT as well as MDA were decreased significantly ( P < 0.05) in TAA + heparin group than in TAA group. Conclusion Intestinal endotoxemia could induce disturbance of hepatic microcirculation, which results in ischemia and hypoxia of liver cell. Heparin could not only correct disturbance of hepatic microcirculation induced by intestinal endotoxemia, but also reduce liver injury induced by ischemia and hypoxia.

Objective To study the variation of serum thyroid hormones in each trimester of pregnancy and their relationship with thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPOAb).Methods Three-hundred and seventy-seven pregnant women in different trimesters were enrolled,the serum TSH,FT3,FT4,TT3,TT4,and TPOAb were determined by ICMA assay.Results Serun TSH in normal pregnant group was gradually increased as the pregnant trimester grew up ( all P<0.05 ).The median of TSH in positive TPOAb group was higher than that of negative TPOAb group( P<0.05 ).The prevalences of both clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism in positive TPOAb group were also higher than those in negative TPOAb group( all P<0.05 ).The prevalences of subclinical hypothyroidism were 23.61% and 18.04%,while those of clinical hypothyroidism were 0.27% and 5.84% by using TT4 and FT4 determination,respectively( P<0.05 ).Conclusions More attention should be paid to the difference between FT4 and TT4 in hypothyroidism diagnosis during both second and third trimesters of pregnancy.Establishment of normal thyroid hormoues cut-off points in each trimester of pregnancy and screening for TPOAb is necessary.
