Mitochondria is an important part of cell oxidation, but oxidative stress in sepsis as end product of inflammation will cause changes of mitochondria, leading to organ damage. In general, antioxidant defense system fights oxidative stress through the interaction and prevents mitochondrial injury. Oxidative stress plays a important role in organ dysfunction. Studies have found that the targeted therapies for mitochondrial antioxidants may be a new strategy of multiple organ failure caused by sepsis. This review aims to summarize researches on oxidative stress of mitochondrial injury mechanism and targeted antioxidants in sepsis .

OBJECTIVE:To explore the suitable clinical service mode for pharmacists in China.METHODS:A questionnaire was designed and a random sample of 170 people were selected from 2 hospitalized patients,doctors,nurses and pharmacists,the results were analyzed using statistical method.RESULTS:There was a general lack of knowledge about clinical pharmaceutical service,higher demands on participation of pharmacists in clinical work were made,and present situation was less than satisfied.CONCLUSION:Clinical service mode of patients first and rational drug use foremost should be established,Chinese pharmacists should improve their knowledge construction and clinical service capability.

[Objective] To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on the disorder of learning and memory in rats with vascular dementia (VD) and to explore its molecular mechanism. [Methods] Among 60 male SD rats, 10 rats were in sham-operation group and the other 50 rats were used to establish models of global ischemia and reperfusion by four-vessel occlusion (4-VO) method. Then the survival model rats were randomized into EA group (n = 14) , model group (n = 13) and nimotop group (n = 13). EA group was treated with EA at points of Baihui (GV20) and Dazhui (GV14) , nimotop group with nimotop 12 mg/kg, and sham-operation group and model group did not receive any treatment. After a 20-day treatment, the changes of learning and memory behavior in rats were detected by Morris water maze, as well as the protein expression and mRNA expression of heme oxygenase (HO) . [Results] The escape latent period, HO-1 protein expression and HO-1 mRNA-expression were increased obviously in model rats ( P 0.05). [Conclusion] EA can improve the learning and memory behavior in rats with VD and this may be related to the decrease of HO-1 protein expression and HO-1 mRNA-expression in cortex and hippocampal neurons.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum leptin(LP) level and glycometabolism in pregnancy with abnormal glucose challenge test(GCT) and the corresponding outcome of pregnancy. Methods Serum LP level,fasting serum insulin(FINS) and fasting blood glucose(FBG) levels were measured by radioimmunoassay in 23 patients with abnormal GCT but normal oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT),20 with impaired glucose tolerance(IGT),20 with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)(studied groups above) and 30 normal pregnant women(control group).LP,FINS,FBG, insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) and ?-cell function index(HOMA-IS) were compared among the groups and the outcomes of pregnancy were observed. Results ①There were significant differences in LP,FINS,FBG,HOMA-IR and HOMA-IS between the studied groups and the control group(P0.05).③There were signi-ficant differences in the gestational weeks of delivery,cesarean section rate and neonatal weight between the studied groups and the control group(P0.05). Conclusion Both insulin secretion and insulin resistance are elevated in pregnancy with abnormal glycometabolism,and are closely correlated to the increased serum level of LP.There existed abnormal glycometabolism in patients with abnormal GCT but normal OGTT,which is correlated to the outcome of pregnancy.

Aim To screen the express-altered proteins before or after effect of Ecdysterone on HepG_2 cell model of insulin resistance by the strategy of comparative proteomics, which may approach new proves exploring the target of sensitizer.Methods HepG_2 cells were incubated with 5×10~(-7) mol·L~(-1) insulin for 16 h, and glucose consumption was determined. After treatment, the insulin resistant cells were incubated with 10~(-5) mol·L~(-1) Ecdysterone for 24 h.Then glucose consumption contents were determined. The proteins of two groups before and after treatment with Ecdysterone were extracted by lysis buffers. The express-altered proteins were screened by 2-DE technique.Some of them were analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS mass spectrometry and MS-Fit database.Results 53 express-altered protein spots of insulin resistant HepG_2 cells before and after treated by Ecdysterone were screened by 2-DE technique,in which 35 ones were up-regulated and the others down-regulated, 6 spots of which were analyzed by MALDI-TOF-MS mass spectrometry and MS-Fit database.Conclusion The target of Ecdysterone as a sensitizer involves many proteins and kinases which correlate insulin resistant. These results lay a foundation for further studies on the function of these target proteins.

Objective To investigate the changes of the constitution and its ratio of collagen fiber in the process of masseter reattachment following different osteotomies of the prominent mandibular angle so as to offer guidance for the resection of mandibular angle. Methods Sixteen adult goats were randomized into four groups. In group A we performed unilateral curved osteotomy of the mandibular angle. In group B unilateral curved ostectomy was performed with partial masseter resection. In group C unilateral angle splitting ostectomy, while in group D unilateral dissection of the masseter muscle was conducted. The constitution and its ratio of collagen fiber in the interface were observed at 1-month, 2-month, 3-month, and 6-month after operation. Results On the changes of collagen fiber in the process of muscular reattachment, at 1-month post-operation, the constitution of collagen fiber (types Ⅰ and Ⅲ) in groups A and B were significantly different from that of control group (P<0.05). However, both groups C and D had no statistic difference from control group (P>0.05). At 2-month, 3-month and 6-month post-operation, those of all experimental groups had no statistic difference from control group. And with time, the percentage of collagen fiber type Ⅰ increased and type Ⅲ decreased gradually. Conclusion The recovery sequences of masseter muscle reattachment in this study are firstly group C, secondly group A and finally group B. It suggests that the recoveries of mastication and other oral activities are different. Group B turns out to be with a slow muscle reattachment. Thus, we recommend treating different kinds of mandibular hypertrophy with different ostectomies.

Objective To investigate static closure functional characteristics of lower urinary tract in continence in late pregnancy of primigravida through perineal ultrasound and urodynamieal measurement. Methods From January of 2003 to December of 2005,83 primigravida undergoing antenatal health care in Shanghai Jiaotong University Affiliated Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital were randomly enrolled in the study, while 28 nulliparous women were recruited as control.The perineal ultrasound and urodynamical measurement were performed at the gestation age of 36-40 weeks,in both groups.We analysed the parameters of lower urinary tract function in late pregnancy compared with nullipara,such as maximal urethral closure pressure(MUCP),functional urethral length(FUL),maximal urethral pressure(MUP), valsalva leak point pressure(VLPP),postvoid residual bladder volume(PVRBV)and volume of first desire to voiding(VFDV).Results The average weight of 83 neonates was(3504?404)g.In all of 83 primigravida PVRBV was less than l0 ml.MUP(110 + 22)cm H_2O(1 cm H_2O=0.098 kPa),MUCP (96?22)cm H_2O and FUL(44?9)mm were significantly increased in the third trimester compared with nullipara(P0.05). There were 33 pregnant women suffering from urinary leakage throughout the terms.The data showed that MUCP was significantly lower in the pregnant women with symptoms of leaking than without leaking. Conclusion The static closure function increased significantly compared with nulliparous women.The VLPP was decreased and had relationship with symptoms of leakage.The results suggest that the function of lower urinary tract in continence in late pregnancy of primigravida is complex.
