[Objective]To investigate the endogenous erythropoietin expression of neural stem cells(NSCs) of rats after hypoxia.[Method]We used a rat NSCs culture model.EPO expression after 4 hours of hypoxia was studied.It was examined again following 12 hours of hypoxic lethal insult which was applied various times after hypoxic preconditioning.EPO expression was studied by western blotting.[Result]Following the preconditioning,expression of EPO increased immediately and reached a peak 4 hours later.It lasted till 8 hours later.While applied the lethal hypoxia,EPO expression of cells in preconditioning 24 hours group were was significantly increased than that in preconditioning 4 hours group.[Conclusion]The hypoxic preconditioning can lead an increased endogenous EPO expression and decrease the threshold of EPO expression against subsequent lethal stimulation during a certain period.

Aim To explore the proteomics mechanism of the differentiation induction effect of 4-amino-2-trif-luoromethyl-phenyl retinate(ATPR)on human leukemi-a K562 cells. Methods Human leukemia K562 cells were incubated with the same concentration (1 × 10 - 6 mol·L - 1 ) of ATPR or ATRA for 48 hours. The total cell proteins were collected, purified and digested by trypsin, solid phase extraction, and the peptides were detected by ESI-LC-MS / MS. The difference of the pro-tein expression between the cells treated with ATPR and ATRA was compared by using the Discoverer Pro-teome 1. 2 software, and the molecular function, the biological process and other information of those pro-teins were analyzed based on the DAVID, KEGG, STRING databases. Results 120 specific proteins were identified only in the ATPR group, 143 only in the ATRA group, and 422 other proteins in both groups. Results of DAVID analysis showed that ATPR-induced specific proteins were mainly involved in 39 biological processes of proteins and macromolecules metabolism, protein transport and localization and so on. Results of KEGG analysis revealed that ATPR-in-duced proteins participated in signal pathways, mainly metabolic pathways, PI3K-Akt signal pathway, TGF-beta signal pathway and other pathways in cancer. String protein interaction network analysis displayed that ATPR-induced proteins, like EIF3A, EIF6, RPL3, RPL8, RPL13, RPL7A, RPL21, RPS3, RPS14, NACA, BTF3, NHP2L1, PPP2CA proteins had direct interactions with more than or equal to 10 associated proteins. Conclusion The differentiation induction effect of ATPR on K562 cells might be as-cribed to the ATPR-induced proteins interaction net-work and the specific central proteins it induced, which are involved in the regulation of cell prolifera-tion, differentiation and apoptosis.

BACKGROUND:Hyperbaric oxygen(HBO)treatment promotes the proliferation and differentiation of endogenous neural stem cells in neonatal rats following hypoxic/ischemic brain damage(HIBD).The Wnt signaling pathway is associated with neurogenesis.However,there are few data recording the role of HBO in the differentiation of neural stem cells in vitro.OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of HBO on differentiation and Wnt3 expression of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs).METHODS:BMSCs were isoiated and cultured.The rat BMSCs of passages 3-5 were cultured in DMEM/F12(1:1)medium with basic fibroblast growth factor,epidermal growth factor and B27 for 24 hours.The induced BMSCs were randomly divided into two groups:control group(no treatment)and HBO group(HBO,0.10 MPa,60 minutes stabilizing pressure with at least 90% oxygen).The neuron specific encloase(NSE),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)and 04 marked oligodendrocyte immunocytochemistry were detected by immunofluorescent staining,and Wnt3 protein expression was detected by Western-blot.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:BMSCs cultured in classic medium of neural stem cells could significantly induce the expression of nestin.The expression of NSE and 04 of HBO group was greater than control group(P<0.01),but GFAP expression displayed no significant difference between the groups(P>0.05).Western blot showed HBO could enhance the Writ3 expression (P<0.05).Results show that HBO can induce BMSCs to differentiate into neural cells and oligodendrocyte,which is correlated with the activation of the Wnt3 protein.

Objective To investigate the effects of pretreatment with remifentanil on hemorrhagic shock (HS)-induced acute liver injury in rabbits.Methods Thirty-two New Zealand white rabbits,weighing 2.0-2.5 kg,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=8 each): sham operation group (group S) ; group HS,low-dose remifentanil group (group RL) ; high-dose remifentanil group (group RH).Remifentanil was infused at 0.66 and 1.32 μg· kg-1 · min-1 for 145 min in groups RL and RH respectively,while the equal volume of normal saline was infused in group C.HS was induced by withdrawing blood from the left femoral artery at 15 min after continuous infusion of normal saline or remifentanil and mean arterial pressure (MAP) was reduced to 40 mm Hg.MAP was reduced to 35-45 mm Hg and maintained at this level for 120 min in groups HS,RL and RH.Blood samples were taken for determination of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities before administration (T0),immediately before blood letting (T1),and at 10,30,60 and 90 min after blood letting (T3-6).The animals were then sacrificed and the livers were immediately removed for microscopic examination.Results Compared with group S,the serum ALT activity at T5 and T6 and serum AST activity at T4-T6 were significantly increased in the other three groups (P < 0.05).Compared with group HS,the serum ALT activity at T5 and T6,and serum AST activity at T4-T6 were significantly decreased in group RH,and no significant change was found in group RL (P > 0.05).Compared with group RL,the serum ALT activity at T5 and T6,and serum AST activity at T4-T6 were significantly decreased in group RH (P < 0.05).The serum ALT activity at T5 and T6 and serum AST activity at T4-T6 were significantly increased in groups HS,R and RH than those at T0 (P < 0.05 or 0.01).The patho1ogical injury was attenuated in group RH compared with groups HS and RL.Conclusion Remifentanil pretreatment can attenuate HS-induced acute liver injury in rabbits,and the effect is related to the dose.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of selective posterior rhizotomy(SPR),local corrective surgery and the training of rehabilitation on the relief of limb spasm secondary to cerebral palsy.MethodsThe "open window" of bilateral vertebral lamina resection, the the posterior roots of L2-S1 were separated from anterior roots and splited into rootlets. The rootlets sensitive to lower threshold of electrical stimulation were sectioned. The ratios of cut root,acorrding to muscle tension, myodynamia, body weight, muscle function,were estimated and all of them <30%. The local plastic operation was performed for nonimprovement of lower limb spasm and the training of rehabilitation began at postoperation. ResultsThe SPR have been performed on 28 cases. The rate of spasticity relief was 90% and the rate of functional improvement was 80% with follow-up. ConclusionsIt is a successful way to treat spastic cerebral palsy with SPR and procedural method.
