Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHC) on acute lung injury induced by blunt chest trauma-hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation in rats.Methods Forty male SpragueDawley rats,aged 8 weeks,weighing 250-300 g,were randomly assigned into 4 equal groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (S group),blunt chest trauma combined with hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation group (group THSR),PHC for prevention group (group P1)and PHC for treatment group (group P2).ALI was induced by dropping a 300 g weight onto a precordial protective shield to direct the impact force away from the heart and toward the lungs in anesthetized rats in THSR,P1 and P2 groups.Blood was withdrawn via the femoral artery 5 min later until MAP was decreased to 35-45 mmHg within 15 min and maintained at this level for 60 min,followed by resuscitation.In P1 group,PHC 2 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 30 min before blunt chest trauma.In P2 group,PHC 2 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 60 min after hemorrhagic shock.At 6 h after the model was established,arterial blood samples were obtained for blood gas analysis and for measurement of concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in serum by ELISA.Oxygenation index (OI) was calculated.The animals were sacrificed and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determination of white blood cell count and protein concentrations.Lungs were removed for examination of pathological changes and ultrastructure and for determination of Toll-like receptor (TLR4) and phosphor-p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (p-p38MAPK) expression (by Western blot).Results Compared with group S,PaO2 and OI were significantly decreased,PaCO2,protein concentrations in BALF,white blood cell count,and IL-6 and IL-1β concentrations in serum were increased,and TLR4 and p-p38MAPK expression was up-regulated in THSR,P1 and P2 groups.Compared with group THSR,PaO2 and OI were significantly increased,PaCO2,protein concentrations in BALF,white blood cell count,and IL-6 and IL-lβ concentrations in serum were decreased,TLR4 and p-p38MAPK expression was down-regulated in P1 and P2 groups.No significant differences were found in the parameters mentioned above between P1 and P2 groups.Conclusion PHC can mitigate acute lung injury induced by blunt chest trauma-hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation in rats,and inhibited activation of TLR4/ p38MAPK signaling pathway and attenuated inflammatory responses are involved in the mechanism.

Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride on Fas/FasL expression during acute lung injury induced by blunt chest trauma-hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HSR) in rats.Methods Thirty male SPF Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 245-275 g, were randomly assigned into 3 equal groups using a random number table: sham operation group (group Sham) , blunt chest trauma-HSR group (group THSR) and penehyclidine hydrochloric group (group PHCD).The model of acute lung injury induced by blunt chest trauma-HSR was induced by dropping a 300 g weight onto a precordium in anesthetized rats.Blood was withdrawn via the femoral artery 5 min later until mean arterial pressure was decreased to 35-45 mmHg within 15 min, and maintained at this level for 60 min, followed by resuscitation.In PHCD group, PHCD 2 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 60 min after hemorrhagic shock.At 6 h after the model was established, the rats were sacrificed, the lungs were then removed for microscopic examination of pathologic changes and for determination of Fas, FasL and caspase-8 expression, and interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-1β contents in lung tissues.Apoptotic index was calculated.Results Compared with group Sham, the expression of Fas, FasL and caspase-8 was significantly up-regulated, and AI and contents of IL-6 and IL-1β were increased in THSR and PHCD groups (P＜O.05).Compared with group THSR, the expression of Fas, FasL and caspase-8 was significantly down-regulated,and AI and contents of IL-6 and IL-1β were decreased in group PHCD (P＜0.05).The pathologic changes of lungs were significantly reduced in group PHCD compared with group THSR.Conclusion The mechanism by which penehyclidine hydrochloride inhibits lung cell apoptosis induced by blunt chest trauma-HSR is associated with inhibition of Fas/FasL expression in rats.

Objective To evaluate the role of classⅠhistone deacetylase (HDAC) in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I∕R) injury in diabetic rats and the relationship with adenosine monophosphate-acti- vated protein kinase (AMPK)∕mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. Methods SPF healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 210-220 g, were used in this study. Type I diabetes mellitus was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin dissolved in citrate buffer 60 mg∕kg, and 8 weeks later the rats with type I diabetes mellitus were used for experiment. Forty-eight diabetic rats were divided into 4 groups (n＝12 each) by using a random number table method: sham operation group (group S), myocardial I∕R group (group I∕R), myocardial I∕R plus class I HDAC inhibitor MS-275 group (group I∕R+MS) and myocardial I∕R plus MS-275 plus AMPK inhibitor Compound C group ( group I∕R+MS+CC). Myocardial I∕R was induced by ligation of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary ar-tery for 45 min followed by 180 min of reperfusion in anesthetized rats. In group I∕R+MS, MS-275 10 mg∕kg was intraperitoneally injected once a day for 7 consecutive days, and myocardial I∕R was produced after the end of administration. AMPK inhibitor Compound C 0. 5 mg∕kg was intravenously injected at 30 min before ischemia in group I∕R+MS+CC. Six rats were sacrificed at the end of reperfusion for determina-tion of myocardial infarct size. Another 6 rats were selected at the end of reperfusion and sacrificed for deter-mination of the level of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum (by en-zyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of AMPK, phosphorylated AMPK ( p-AMPK), mTOR, phosphorylated mTOR (p-mTOR), ubiquitin-binding protein P62 (P62), microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅰ(LC3 Ⅰ) and LC3Ⅱ in myocardial tissues (by Western blot). The ratios of p-AMPK∕AMPK, p-mTOR∕mTOR and LC3Ⅱ∕Ⅰwere calculated. Results Compared with group S, the myocardial infarct size and levels of serum CK-MB and LDH were significantly increased in I∕R, I∕R+MS and I∕R+M+CC groups, the ratios of p-AMPK∕AMPK and LC3Ⅱ∕Ⅰwere significantly increased, p-mTOR∕mTOR ratio was decreased, and P62 expression was down-regulated in group I∕R+MS (P＜0. 05), and no significant change was found in p-AMPK∕AMPK ratio, p-mTOR∕mTOR ratio, LC3Ⅱ∕Ⅰ ratio or P62 expression in I∕R and I∕R+M+CC groups (P＞0. 05). Compared with group I∕R, the myocardial infarct size and levels of serum CK-MB and LDH were significantly decreased, the ratios of p-AMPK∕AMPK and LC3Ⅱ∕Ⅰwere in-creased, p-mTOR∕mTOR ratio was decreased, and P62 expression was down-regulated in group I∕R+MS (P＜0. 05), and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group I∕R+M+CC (P＞0. 05). Compared with group I∕R+MS, the myocardial infarct size and levels of serum CK-MB and LDH were significantly increased, the ratios of p-AMPK∕AMPK and LC3Ⅱ∕Ⅰ were decreased, p-mTOR∕mTOR ratio was increased, and P62 expression was up-regulated in group I∕R+M+CC ( P＜0. 05). Con-clusion Class Ⅰ HDAC is involved in myocardial I∕R injury through enhancing AMPK∕mTOR signaling pathway-regulated level of autophagy in diabetic rats.
