BACKGROUND: The method of culture purified sinoatrial node cell is important in investigating its ultrastructural characteristics and autorhythmic mechanisms.However,the corresponding method has not been standardized.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the localization,cultivation and purification of sinoatrial nodes isolated from newborn rabbits,and to study the morphological characters of primary cultured pacemaker cells.METHODS: Hearts of the newborn rabbits(within 24 hours)were embedded in paraffin for hematoxylin-eosin staining,The location of sinoatrial nodes was observed under an optical microscope,the morphology of sinoatrial nodes cells were observed by light microscope and electron microscope.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Sinoatrial nodes localized in the anterior wall of the superior vena cava and the posterior laterial wall of right atrium.There was about 0.32 mm between its lowest point and sulcus terminalis.Three distinct types of cells were observed among the cultured cells of sinoatrial nodes: spindle,spider and polygon.The spindle cells occupied the greatest proportion of the cultured cells(59.6±7.3)%.The spontaneous contraction frequency of spindle cells was the highest among the constracting cells(145±9)times per minute.The ultrastructure observation showed that myofibrils and other organelles in spindle cells were sparse and significantly decreased in number compared with triangle cells.There was no significant difference between triangle cells isolated from sinoatrial nodes and from atrial muscle.Sinoatrial nodes could be harvested along the anterior root of the superior vena cava down to the posterolateral sulcus.Among the cultured cells from neonatal rabbit sinoatrial nodes,the spindle cells with small body and fast pulse frequency are pacemaker cells.

Objective To study the protective effects of propofol pretreatment on ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbit heart. Methods Forty New Zealand white rabbits (40 male, weighting 2. 5 ± 0. 36kg) were randomly assigned to 4 groups, including sham operation group, ischemia reperfusion (IR)group, IR + ischemia preconditioning (IP) group and IR + Propofol preconditioning (PP) group (n =10 each). The myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model of rabbits was established by coronary artery ligation.The levels of high energy phosphates (ATP, ADP and AMP) in myocardial tissue were measured by HPLC.The activities of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), serum creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondiadehyd (MDA) in myocardial tissue were assayed. Results The content of ATP, ADP, AMP, and the activity of SOD in PP group and IP group were higher than that of IR group, and the content of LDH, MDA and CK-MB in injured myocardial tissue in PP group and IP group were obviously lower than that of IR group (P <0. 05, P <0. 01). No difference was found in PP group and IP group(P>0. 05). Conclusion Propofol preconditioning as well as ischemia preconditioning protected the myocardial tissues from the ischemia-reperfusion injury by improving the myocardial energy metabolism, the debasement of the oxyradical level and the antagonism the reaction of lipid peroxides.

Objective To evaluate and compare the therapetic effectiveness among intravenous rt-PA thrombolysis, thrombolysis plus delayed intracoronary stenting and delayed intracoronary stenting for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) using 99 [KG*2/3]Tcm-MIBI myocardial SPECT imaging. Methods Ninty-five cases of AMI were divided into three groups which were the thrombolysis group (n=31), thrombolysis plus delayed stenting group (n=30) and the delayed stenting group (n=34). 99 [KG*2/3]Tcm-MIBI myocardial SPECT imaging was performed 3 weeks after thrombolysis therapy or 1 week after intracoronary stenting.The left ventricular myocardium was divided into 16 segments for evaluation. The score of myocardial 99 [KG*2/3]Tcm-MIBI uptake were analyzed semiquantitatively and the total score of myocardial 99 [KG*2/3]Tcm-MIBI uptake was calculated. Results The scores of the 3 groups were 28.4?7.5, 19.4?6.2 and 27.3?7.2 respectively. Significant difference was shown in the thrombolysis plus delayed stenting group compared with the thrombolysis and the delayed stenting group (t=7.2, t=6.9, P0.05). Conclusion 99 Tcm-MIBI myocardial SPECT imaging has been proved to be an objective parameter for evaluating the therapeutic effectiveness of the various treatments of AMI. Thrombolysis plus delayed stenting seems to be more effective than thrombolysis and delayed stenting. On the other hand, thrombolysis and delayed stenting show similar effect in the treatment of AMI in the study.

Objective To study lentinan’s promotion on XELOX regimen’s curative effects on advanced gastric cancer. Method Cases with advanced gastric cancer were divided into observation group and control group according their therapy method. The curative effects, side effects, WBC, lymphocyte subsets, NK cells and quality of life were compared. Results The difference of disease control rates in two groups were not significant (P=0.091). The incidences of side effects in observation group were significantlly lower than in control group (P<0.05). The observation group’s WBC, Lym, CD 3+, CD 4+, CD 8+, NK cells and quality of life were significantly higher than in control group(P<0.05). Conclusion Lentinan could significantly promote gastric cancer patients’immunity and lessen side effects. It can promote XELOX regimen’s curative effects on gastric cancer and improve quality of life.

BACKGROUND: Studies have demonstrated that hyperpolarization-activated andcyclic nucleotide-gated cation channels (HCN) 2 and HCN4 are abnormal expressed in ventricular muscle following heart disease, which is closely correlate to ventricular arrhythmia. Bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation can improve damaged cardiac muscle; however, its effect on remodeling of ion channel is unclearly. OBJECTIVE: To detect the changes of HCN2 and HCN4 expression in left ventricle following BMSCs transplantation.METHODS: Five Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats, aged 3 weeks, were prepared for BMSCs by Percoll method. Additional 30 health, male, SD rats, were randomly divided into DMEM, cell transplantation, sham operation and control groups. At 4 weeks after model preparation, DMEM culture medium was injected into the infarcted area and surroundings with 5 points in the DMEM group. The 3rd generation of cultured BMSCs (200 μL, with 5×10~6 cells) were injected into rats in the cell transplantation group with the same methods. The mRNA and protein expression of HCN2 and HCN4 gene was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In non-infarcted region, the mRNA and protein expression of HCN2 and HCN4 among each groups had no significant difference (P > 0.05). Compared with the control and sham operation groups, mRNA and protein expression of HCN2 and HCN4 in surrounding of the infracted region was elevated in the DMEM group (P < 0.05), which was greater than that of the cell transplantation group (P < 0.05). The mRNA and protein expression of HCN2 and HCN4 was smaller in the center area of infracted region in the DMEM group than that of the control and sham operation groups (P < 0.05), which was similar to the cell transplantation group (P > 0.05). Acute myocardial infarction can increase mRNA and protein expression of HCN2 and HCN4 in infracted region surrounding. BMSCs transplantation may lower the fatality rate of ventricular arrhythmia by reducing HCN2 and HCN4 expression.
