Objective To investigate the effect of clemastine fumarate on lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rabbits.Methods Fifty New Zealand white rabbits of both sexes,weighing 2.0-3.0 kg,were divided into 3 groups using a random number table:sham operation group (Sham group,n =10),I/R group (n =20) and clemastine fumarate group (Cle group,n =20).The model of lung I/R was established by clamping the left hilum of lung and decreasing the tidal volume followed by restoration of perfusion and ventilation 1 h later in I/R and Cle groups.At 3 h of ventilation in group Sham and 2 and 4 h of reperfusion in I/R and Cle groups,blood samples were collected for determination of serum tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-8 (IL-8) concentrations by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The left lung was lavaged,and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was colleted for determination of white blood cell count.Lung specimens were obtained for microscopic examination of the ultrastructure of lung tissues and for determination of wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio),expression of IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA (by real-time polymerase chain reaction) and cell apoptosis (by TUNEL).The apoptosis rate was calculated.Results Compared with Sham group,the W/D ratio,white blood cell count in BALF,serum concentrations of TNF-α and IL-8 and apoptosis rate were significantly increased,and the expression of IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA was up-regulated in I/R and Cle groups (P＜0.05 or 0.01).Compared with I/R group,the W/D ratio,white blood cell count in BALF,serum concentrations of TNF-α and IL-8 and apoptosis rate were significantly decreased,and the expression of IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA was down-regulated in Cle group (P＜0.05 or 0.01).The pathological changes of lung tissues were significantly attenuated in Cle group than in I/R group.Conclusion Clemastine fumarate can attenuate lung I/R injury in rabbits.

Objective To investigate the apoptosis response to mechanical stretch in human alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells A549.Methods First,A549 cells were given different stretch(0%,5%,15%,30%) at frequency of 0.5 Hz for 4 h.Then,A549 cells were stretched for different periods(0 h,2 h,4 h,8 h) at stretch 15%,0.5 Hz.Last,A549 cells were stretched for different frequency(0 Hz,0.2 Hz,0.5 Hz and 1 Hz) at stretch 15% for 4 h.The early apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. Results A549 cells submitted to cyclic stretch caused the early apoptosis in a time-,stretch-and frequency-dependent manner.In details,at 0.5 Hz and 4 h stretch-dependence occurred,at 15% stretch and 0.5 Hz time-dependence occurred,and at 15% stretch and 4 h frequency-dependence occurred. Conclusion Mechanical stretch can induce the early apoptosis in human alveolar type Ⅱ epithelial cells A549,which may be one of the mechanisms of ventilator-induced lung injury.

Conclusion PBL is a better way in clinical medical education and worthwhile to be further researched and carried out.

Osteoclast, a huge coenocytes,originates from mononuclear macrophages or monocytic series hematopoietic precursor cell, plays an important role in the progree of bone resorption. Formation and abnormal activity of osteoclast may cause osteoprosis, rheumatoid arthritis and aseptic loosening after arthroplasty. Therefore, osteoclast is the target for treating these disease. At present, a lot of study on formation of osteoclast were reported, but the study on how to identify and degradation of bone tissue is not yet reported. Bone mineral are seen as important component of identifing osteoclast, and the research suggested that bone matrix is not the essential ingredients of activiting osteoclast, petri dish covered by vitronectin also can make osteoclast occure certain form of bone resorption, vitronectin plays an significant role in activiting osteoclast. Otherwise, the research found that swallowing and secretion of bone matrix degradation products is benefit for differentiation of osteoclast and maintain of function, and this may be therapeutic target for treatment of musculoskeletal disorders.

OBJECTIVE To understand the pathogenicity of Staphylococcus epidermidis causing urinary tract infection. METHODS Thirty five isolates were collected in the patients with urinary tract infection during 2003-2004 to test the minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) to erythromycin,ampicillin,cefoxitin,ceftriaxone,teicoplanin,ciprofloxacin,tetracycline,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and vancomycin.The genes of ermA,ermB,ermC,msrA,mecA,and icaA were amplified by PCR.The biofilm producing of the isolates was determined by the quantitative method.The pulsed-field gel electrophoresis(PFGE) was used to discriminate the homology among the isolates. RESULTS Among the isolates,MRSE accounted for 71.4%.The antibiotic susceptibility to erythromycin,ampicillin,ceftriaxone,ciprofloxacin,tetracycline and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole were 22.8%,6.34%,34.9%,26.9%,44.4% and 62.2%,respectively,whereas to teicoplanin and vancomycin were 99.2% and 100%.All the isolates resistant to cefoxitin carried mecA.ermC Was the predominant determinant among the erythromycin resistant isolates.Among the 14 icaA positive isolates,10 isolates were biofilm producing.All the isolates were classified into 18 types by PFGE. CONCLUSIONS The high and multiple antibiotic resistance of S.epidermidis isolates causing urinary tract infection were shown.The detection of icaA gene in clinical S.epidermidis isolates was a signal of their pathogenicity.

AIM　To analyze the effects of endomorphins (EMs) and their analogs (［D-Pro2］EM-1, ［D-Ala2］EM-1, ［D-Pro2］EM-2 and ［D-Ala2］EM-2) on the cardiovascular system of anesthetized rats and to study its mechanism. METHODS　Responses to EMs and their analogs were investigated in the systemic vascular bed of rats and the mesenteric microarteria of Bufo gargarizans. Responses to EMs were investigated on the hindquarters of the rat vascular bed under constant-flow conditions and on the isolated rabbit thoracic aorta strips. RESULTS　The EMs and their analogs showed dose-related (10-9-10-6 mol*L-1, iv) and naloxone-sensitive (2 mg*kg-1, iv) hypotension in mean arterial pressure of rats with similar duration and vasodilatation in mesenteric microarteria of Bufo gargarizans. The sequence of potencies was EMs > ［D-Pro2］EM-2 > ［D-Ala2］EM-2 > ［D-Ala2］EM-1 > ［D-Pro2］EM-1. EMs were shown not to relax the isolated rabbit thoracic aorta strips without endothelium. EMs, however, relaxed them with endothelium significantly. This action was blocked by Nx (10-5 mol*L-1) and L-NNA (10-4 mol*L-1). CONCLUSION　The significant hypotensive activity of EMs and their analogs is mainly associated with their vasodilatation, which is related to the release of NO from vascular endothelium, and their potency is not completely related to their affinity for μ-opiate receptor.

Endomorphins(EMs),two tetrapeptides, were discovered in 1997 and believed to be endogenous ligands of μ-opioide receptor(MOR). They mediated various physiological processes by binding to MOR that couple with G-proteins. Based on our works and literatures, we reviewed the distribution in nerve system, receptor binding properties, analgesis, effects on ion channels, conformation and struction-activity relationship of EMs.
