Objective To investigate the protective effect of isoflurane preconditioning on myocardium against isehemia-reperfusion(I/R)injury and the possible mechanism.Methods Fifty male SD rats weighing 250- 300 g were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=10 each):Ⅰ control group(C);Ⅱ I/R group and 3 isoflurane preconditioning groups with 0.5%(Ⅲ),or 1.0%(Ⅳ)or 2.0% isoflurane(Ⅴ).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal pentobarbital 40 mg?kg~(-1).The hearts were immediately excised and placed in cold K-H solution.The aorta was canuulated and heart retrogradely perfused with K-H solution aerated with 95% O_2 and 5% CO_2 at 37℃ and 10 kPa in a langendorff apparatus.Left ventricular end-diastollc pressure(LVEDP)and left ventrieular systolic pressure(LVSP)were measured from a fluid-filled latex balloon in the left ventricle.The isolated hearts were made globally ischemic for 30 min followed by 60 rain reperfusion in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ.In the 3 isoflurane preconditioning groups the hearts were perfused with K-H solution saturated with 0.5% or 1.0% or 2.0% isoflurane for 15 rain followed by 15 rain washout before ischemia.The cardiac function variables including LVEDP,LVSP dp/dt_(min),dp/dt_(max) and HR were measured after epuilibrium(baseline values),immediately before ischemia,at the end of 30 min ischemia and 60 min reperfusion.The infarct size and cytochrome C level in cytoplasm and mitochondria of myocytes were measured.Results I/R significantly increased LVEDP and decreased LVSP,dp/dt_(min),dp/dt_(max) as compare with control group.Sevoflurane preconditioning significantly attenuated the depression of cardiac function caused by I/R.Only LVEDP was significantly higher during reperfusion period in the 3 sevoflurane preconditioning group than in the control group but there was no significant difference in LVSP,dp/ dt_(min),dp/dt_(max) between control group and the 3 preconditioning groups.The infarct size was significantly smaller in the 3 preconditioning groups than in I/R group.Cytochrome C level was significantly increased in cytoplasm but decreased in mitochondria in I/R group as compared with control group.Sevoflurane preconditioning significantly ameliorated the release of cytochrome C from mitochondria to cytoplasm in the 3 sevoflurane preconditioning group.Conclusion Isoflurane preconditioning can protect the heart against I/R injury by attenuation of the release of cytochrone C from mitochondria to cytoplasm.

Objective To improve the level of diagnosis and treatment of the traumatic and hemorrhagic shock.Methods 50 cases of patients with sever traumatic and hemorrhagic shock treated in our department between May 2004 and May 2007 were analyzed retrospectively,and their age,shock severity scale,time to hospital after in- jury,operation,fluid resuscitation volume etc were analyzed to show the relationship between the factors and the out- come.Results The rescue success rate was 76%(38 cases),and traumatic mortality was 24%(12 eases).Conclu- sion Shock severity scale and incorreet resuscitation manipulation are the main factors affecting the result of resusci- tation and treatment of traumatic shock,and early surgery can effectively improve the result of severe trauma thera- py.

[Objective]To study the therapeutic results of the endovenous laser treatment(EVLT) of varicose veins in lower limbs. [Method]97 cases (111 limbs) were performed with EVLT or EVLT with high ligation of the great saphenous veins according to the clinical manifestations, phlebography and ultrasound. [Results]All patients were followed-up 3~24 months with satisfactory results,without recurrence of varicosity. [Conclution]EVLT is a safe, effective, reliable and minimally invasive treatment for varicosity in lower limbs.

It is well known that Tn5B1-4(commercially known as the High Five)cell line is highly susceptible to baculovirus and provides superior production of recombinant proteins when compared to other insect cell lines.But the characteristics of the cell line do not always remain stable and may change upon continuous passage.Recently an alphanodavirus,named Tn5 Cell Line Virus(or TNCL Virus),was identified in High Five cells in particular. Therefore,we established a new cell line,QB-Tn9-4s,from Trichoplusia ni,which was determined to be free of TNCL virus by RT-PCR analysis. In this paper,we describe the development of a novel cell clone,QB-CL-B,from a low passage QB-Tn9-4s cell line and report its susceptibility to ACMNPV,and the level of recombinant protein production. This cell clone was similar to its parental cells QB-Tn9-4s and Tn5B 1-4 cells in morphology and growth rate;although it also showed approximately the same responses to AcMNPV infection and production of occlusion bodies,there were higher levels of recombinant protein production in comparison to QB-Tn9-4s(parental cells)and High5 cells.

In this experiment, the HPLC specific chromatogram was adopted, with Agilent Extend-C18 (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) as the chromatographic column, and 0.5 per thousand trifluoroacetic acid and acetonitrile as the mobile phase for gradient elution, so as to establish specific chromatograms for drug pair of Schizonepetae Herba and Saposhnikoviae Radix from different producing area, identify 12 common characteristic peaks, and obtain the comparison specific chromatography of drug pair of Schizonepetae Herba and Saposhnikoviae Radix. The method is simple, accurate and highly reproducible, and thus can be used as the basis for the quality control of the drug pair.

BACKGROUND:Hydrolysis in vivo is the key mechanism of degradation in DL-polylactic acid (PDLLA). When it is combined with hydroxyapatite (HA), could the biodegradation and weight loss rate be improved? OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes in the interface and structure of HA/PDLLA composite after in vivo implantation into rabbit femoral defects.DESIGN: Randomized grouping and controlled observation.SETTING: Biomedical Materials and Engineering Research Center, Wuhan University of Technology.MATERIALS: Forty healthy adult Japan White Rabbits of 2.0-2.5 kg, either male or female were provided by the Animal Experimental Center of Hubei Province (No. SCXK. 2003-0005).METHODS: The experiment was conducted in Biomedical Materials and Engineering Research Center, Wuhan University of Technology from June 2005 to March 2006. ①The rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: HA/PDLLA group and PDLLA control group with 20 animals in each group. After anesthetized with ketamine and proazamine, the sample rods of HA/PDLLA and PDLLA were respectively implanted into the drilled bone cavities (φ5 mm × 8 mm) among condyles of femur sites of the rabbits, and the rod could be slightly higher than the surface of bone substance. The samples were covered by periosteum and skin, and then the skin and periosteum were repositioned. ②The complete implants and peripheral bone tissues were taken out respectively after 3, 6, 12 and 24 weeks implantation. The changes in the interface and structure of HA/PDLLA composite after in vivo implantation were observed by using scanning electron microscope (SEM, JSM-5610LV, Japan).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in the interface and structure of HA/PDLLA composite after in vivo implantation.RESULTS: Totally 40 rabbits were involved in the result analysis. After the materials were implanted, HA granules shed from the material surface, some fibroblasts grew into the tissue and a little new osteotylus was formed, indicating HA/PDLLA composite had capabilities of bone-formation and bone-connection. After 24 weeks implantation, the material was divided and wrapped by tissues, neogenetic bone tissue grew into the material, and the fracture healed well,indicating HA/PDLLA composite had good biocompatibility. As for biodegradable PDLLA polymer, hydrolysis in vivo is the most main mechanism of degradation; the degradation speed was decreased owing to being compounded with HA.CONCLUSION: HA/PDLLA composite has capabilities of bone-formation and bone-connection; the biocompatibility of the composite is improved accordingly on account of the decrease of the degradation speed. HA/PDLLA composite is suitable for clinical application as absorbable materials for internal fixation.
