OBJECTIVE:To study inhibitory effects of propofol on PC12 cells injury induced by glutamic acid via mitogen-acti-vated protein kinase/extra-cellular regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) signal pathway. METHODS:PC12 cells were randomized into normal control group,model group(10 mmol/L glutamic acid),propofol low-concentrations,medium-concentrations and high-con-centrations groups(12.5,25,50 μmol/L+10 mmol/L glutamic acid). The optical density of cells,cell apoptosis,the phosphoryla-tion of ERK1/2 and the expression of c-fos,Bax,Bcl-2 were detected after treated with relevant medicine for 48 h. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,optical density of cells,the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and Bcl-2 decreased in model group (P<0.01);apoptotic rate,the expression of c-fos and Bax increased (P<0.01). Compared with model group,optical density of cells,the expression of Bcl-2 and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 increased in propofol group (P<0.01);apoptosis rate,the ex-pression of c-fos and Bax decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There were statistical significant between the different concentrations (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Propofol can inhibit the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by glutamic acid,which is associated with the up-regulation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation.

BACKGROUND:Currently,there are three types of visual prosthesis:retinal prosthesis,optic nerve prosthesis and visual cortical prosthesis.Normal optic nerve fiber is the basis to apply visual prosthesis.Extracellular stimulation of myelinated optic nerve fiber is developed from intracellular stimulation,with feasible selection of stimulation locations and low requirements for operation.OBJECTIVE: Using computer to simulate the response of myelinated rat optic nerve fiber to extracellular point current source and to analyze the effect of the position of the point source on the response of the optic nerve fiber.METHODS:The experiment data of ion channels of rat optic nerve fiber and the characteristic of common ion channels were summarized,and the existing Hodgkin-Huxley like optic nerve fiber models were analyzed.The response of the optic nerve fiber model was simulated by computer,and the differences of action potentials of Ranvier node were compared by changing the position of point source.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Simulated models showed that the response of optic nerve is affected by the position of extracellular exciting electrode.The myelinated rat optic nerve fiber is easier to activate when the distance between point source and the Ranvier node center of the optic nerve fiber is short.

Objective To evaluate clinical efficacy of single center intracavitary isolation procedure for treating elderly Standford type B aortic dissection.Methods 46 consecutive patients aged ≥ 65 years with Standford B aortic dissection,who underwent membrane stent intracavitary isolation treatment,in Tianjin Chest Hospital between 2010-2015 were enrolled in this study.All enrolled patients received examinations of echocardiography,contrast-enhanced CT,hepatic and renal functions,and the blood and urine routine tests before the procedure.After the procedure,the contrastenhanced CT of whole aorta was annually rechecked for all patients in the four time points of predischarge,3,6,12 months after operation.Deadline date of the follow up was December 2015.The outcomes of whole aorta CT and survival rate were analyzed.Results Successful stent implantation was performed in all patients (100 %).Two (4.3 %) patients died in the perioperative period,and one died due to the new aortic dissection at the last 8 months after operation.Overall survival rate was 89.1%(41 cases)during the follow-up period(95%CI:52.5-63.6 and 32.6-38.9,all P<0.05).Conclusions The short and long term outcomes of intracavitary isolation procedure for treating Standford B aortic dissection are satisfactory in elderly patients.Perioperative blood pressure control,strict image measure,and carefully selecting the appropriate scaffold model are the keys for successful operation.

Objective pSUPER was used as vector to construct the siRNA targeting the gene of Rac1 to explore its inhibitive effects on Rac1 expression in hepatoma cell HepG2,and observe the proliferation of HepG2.Methods The oligonucleotide possessing 64 bases targeting the hairpin-like RNA of Rac1 gene was chemically synthesized,and inserted into the downstream of H1 promoter of linearized pSUPER vector after annealing.The vector pSUPER-Rac1-siRNA was constructed by sequencing and restrictive digestion of the recombined vector,and then transfected to hepatome cell line HepG2.pSUPER-Control-siRNA was used as a negative contro1.Western blotting was performed to monitor the Rac1 gene in plasmid-transfected cells,and the proliferation of extracorporeal cells after Rac1 expression was detected by MTT assay.Results The siRNA expression vector pSUPER-Rac1-siRNA targeting Rac1 gene was successfully constructed.The expression of Rac1 protein in HepG2 cells was down-regulated effectively by the transfection of pSUPER-Rac1-siRNA with an inhibition rate of 82%.It was revealed by MTT detection that the proliferation rate of cells declined remarkably when the expression of Rac1 protein was inhibited efficiently.Conclusions The hairpin-like RNA expression vector pSUPER-Rac1-siRNA targeting Rac1 has been constructed successfully,which may effectually and specifically down-regulate the gene expression of Rac1 in HepG2 cells.The silencing of Rac1 protein may remarkably inhibit the proliferation of hepatoma cells,implying that the Rac1 may play an important role in the in vitro growth of hepatoma cells.
