Objective To observe the effect of intravenous injection of different doses of propofol on the ceil apoptosis and NF-kB p65 in the acute lung injury(ALl)induced by LPS in rats.Method Sixty SD rats were randomly(random number)divided into five groups,namely,control(NS)group,Au model group and propofol intervention groups(P1,P2,P3 groups).The lung injury was evaluated by using microscopy with hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining and arterial blood gas,and Western blotting Was applied to evaluating the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 in lung tissues.The apoptosis rate of lung tissue Was determined by flow cytometric analysis.Results Lung injury in model group reached the pathologic criteria of acute lung injury,and it was attenuated apparently in propofol intervention groups(P1,P2,P3 groups)in dose-dependent manner.Western blotting results showed that the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 and the apoptosis rate increased significantly in ALI model group compared with control group(P<0.05),and decreased in propofol intervention groups compared with ALl model group(P<0.05).Conclusions Propofol Can attenuate acute lung injury induced by LPS in rats,and significantly inhibit the nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65 and the cell apoptosis in lung tissues.The effect of propofol attenuating acute lung injury induced by LPS in rats may be attributed to the inhibition of nuclear translocation of NF-KB P65and ceil apoptosis in lung tissues.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on activation of NF-κB in polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) in rats with LPS-induced acute lung injury (ALI). Methods Sixty healthy SD rats of both sexes, aged 3 months, weighing 250-350 g, were randomly divided into 5 groups (n = 12 each):control group (group C), ALI group and 3 different dose of propofol groups (group P1, P2, P3). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitaneal 3% pentobarbital sodium 40 mg/kg. LPS 5 mg/kg was injected via femoral vein in group ALI.Propofol 5, 10 and 15 mg· kg- 1· h- 1 was infused intravenously over 2 h immeliately after injection of LPS 5 ng/kg through femoral vein in group P1, P2 and P3 respectivey. In group C normal saline 10 ml was injected via femoral vein instead. All rats were killed by exsanguination at the end of infusion of propofol. The right lung was removed for microscopic examination. The morphologic changes were scored 0-3 (0 = normal, 3 = severe morphologic changes). Blood samples were collected from carotid artery for determination of the expression of total NF-κB and activated NF-κB in PMNs by Western blot. Results Compared with group C, morphologic change scores and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs were significantly increased in group ALI, P1 and P2, and morphologic change scores increased in group P3. Morphologic change scores in group P1 and P2 and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs in group P1, P2 and P3 were significantly decreased compared with those in group ALl. Morphologic change scores and activated NF-κB expression in PMNs were decreased gradually in group P1, P2 and P3 . There was no significant difference in total NF-κB expression in PMNs among all groups. Conclusion Propofol can attenuate ALI induced by LPS through inhibition of the activation of NF-κB in PMNs in rats.

Objective To establish a stable brain injury model with pancreatitis and explore the mechanism of brain injury resulting from severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in experimental rat models. Methods Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation (SO) group, SAP group and trypsin group, with eight rats in each. Brain tissue and pancreas tissue specimens were collected at 12 h after treatment. Death rate in each group was evaluated; the level of tight junction protein zonula occludens 1 (Zo-1) was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The ultrastructure of the brain tissues was examined using transmission electronic microscope; pathological changes in the brain tissues were observed with HE staining. Results The death rate was increased significantly in SAP group compared with that in trypsin group; no rats in SO group died. Zo-1 level was obviously lower in SO group than in SAP group and trypsin group (P<0.05). The ultrastructural changes were seen in the latter two groups, including obvious neuronal cell swelling, capiliary stasis, increased vascular permeability, thrombosis and cell apoptosis. Conclusion Trypsin may cause brain injury with pancratitis. The death rate of SAP model established by trypsin was low. We have provided a stable animal brain injury model for further study and treatment of brain injury.

Objective:To survey the periodontal status of patients with metabolic syndrome in a Beijing community,so as to evaluate the relationship between periodontal status and metabolic syndrome.Methods:152 metabolic syndrome(MS)patients,106 post-acute myocardial infarction patients,211 hypertension patients and 56 healthy subjects were involved.Mesial buccal and distal lingual sites per tooth were examined.The periodontal status including plaque index(PLI),bleeding index(BI),probing depth(PD)and attachment loss(AL)as well as missing teeth number were recorded.Results:In male patients,PLI,BI and PD in MS group were higher than that in the other three groups although the mean age and smoking percentage of MS group were the lowest(P

Objective To explore the protective effect of resveratrol on rat brain injury resulting from severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Ninety-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham-operation (SO) group,severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) group,resveratrol-treated (RES) group and dexamethasone-treated (DEX) group,with eight rats in each group evaluated at 3,6 and 12 h. Levels of serum myelin basic protein (MBP),tight junction protein zonula occludens 1 (Zo-1),TNF-? and IL-6 were determined by ELISA. The ultrastructural changes of the brain and pancreatic tissues were examined using a transmission electron microscope. Results MBP,Zo-1,TNF-? and IL-6 levels in RES group were lower than those in SAP group at all time points (P0.05). Conclusion The degradation of Zo-1 is involved in the pathophysiology of brain injury in SAP; MBP can be used as a marker of brain injury in SAP rats. Resveratrol can inhibit brain injury associated with SAP.

AIM:To investigate the differences of clinical signs and pathological structure of unilateral nasal pterygium and unilateral double pterygium.METHODS:Retrospective study.Totally 11 unilateral nasal pterygium and 11 unilateral double pterygium were collected to observe the size of the tissue area, the classification of blood vessels, the transparency and the break-up time of tear film.The 11 surgically excised double pterygia (11 eyes) and 6 samples of normal conjunctiva were collected for the study.With 40g/L paraformaldehyde fixation, paraffin sections were stained with Haematoxylin-Eosin, to observe the differences with nasal and temporal pathology under light microscope.RESULTS:In unilateral double pterygium, the tear break-up time was significantly shorter than that of unilateral nasal pterygium (t=3.410, P=0.003).In unilateral nasal pterygium, there was a significant negative correlation between tear film break-up time and tissue size(r=-0.927, P<0.01) and transparency(r=-0.764,P<0.01).In unilateral double pterygium, the tear break-up time was significantly negatively correlated with the growth time (r=-0.661, P<0.05), tissue size (r=-0.775, P<0.01) and transparency (r=-0.671,P<0.05).In unilateral double pterygium, compared with the temporal side, the quantity of the layers of corneal epithelial cells (t=-7.351, P<0.05), vessels (t=-7.400, P<0.05) and inflammatory cells (t=-7.481, P<0.05) increased.CONCLUSION:Compared with unilateral nasal pterygium, the tear film break-up time of unilateral double pterygium was poor.In unilateral double pterygium, with high activity, the degree of proliferation of squamous epithelium, hyperplasia and inflammatory reaction are significantly higher than those of the temporal side.
