Aim To investigate the interactions be-tween the neuroinflammation caused by lipopolysaccha-ride(LPS) and brain CYP2E1.Methods The human cholinergic neuroblastoma cell line IMR-32 was treated with LPS ( 0.1 mg · L-1 , 1.0 mg · L-1 ) , and the LDH and SOD activities were determined after 24 h in-cubation .In order to determine the roles of MAPK sig-naling pathway in the regulation of CYP 2E1 by LPS, the IMR-32 cells were treated with p38 pathway inhibi-tor SB203580 or ERK pathway inhibitor U 0126 for 45 min before the incubation with LPS .The human do-paminergic neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y with CYP2 E1 over-expression was established . The LDH and SOD activities were determined in SH-SY5 Y cells over-expressed CYP2 E1 and control cells treated with LPS(0.1 mg· L-1 , 1.0 mg· L-1 ) for 24 h.Results
The levels of LDH in IMR-32 cells treated with high-dose LPS were increased by 1.38-fold ( P <0.01 ) compared with the control group , and the levels of SOD reduced by 15.0%( P <0.01 ) .Compared with the control, CYP2E1 mRNA and protein levels in IMR-32 cells treated with high-dose LPS were increased by 1.25-fold(P<0.01) and 1.19-fold(P<0.05).The up-regulation of CYP2E1 by LPS could be attenuated by SB203580 and U0126 pretreatment.Compared with the control cells, the CYP2E1 over-expression in-creased LDH levels by 1.28-fold ( P<0.01 ) and de-creased SOD levels by 3.53-fold ( P<0.01 ) after the low-dose of LPS treatment .The CYP2E1 over-expres-sion increased LDH levels by 1.54-fold ( P <0.01 ) and decreased SOD levels by 2.17-fold( P<0.01) af-ter the high-dose of LPS treatment , compared with the control cells.Conclusions LPS can induce CYP2E1 mRNA and protein levels , and the p38 and ERK sig-naling pathway may be involved in the regulation .The elevated CYP2 E1 levels aggravate the damage to neuro-nal cells caused by LPS .Brain CYP2E1 may be an im-portant contributing factor to the pathological process of neuroinflammatory injury .

Aim To investigate the role of NO/cGMP in the cardioprotective effects of intrathecal morphine preconditioning against myocardial ischemia-reperfu-sion injury in rats. Method 54 Male Sprague-Dawley Rats were used to establish the model of intrathecal catheter placement. The rats were randomly assigned to
9 groups. SHAM (sham group), CON (control, sa-line) , ITMP ( intrathecal morphine preconditioning, 3μg·kg-1 ) , L-NAME+ITMP ( NO synthetase inhibi-tor,L-NAME ) , ODQ + ITMP ( guanylate cyclase in-hibitor, ODQ ) , KT5823 + ITMP ( PKG inhibitor, KT5823),L-NAME,ODQ,KT5823,6ratsineach
group. ITMP were produced by three cycles of 5 min intrathecal injection of morphine and 5 min intermis-sion before myocardial ischemia, CON were achieved by intrathecal injection of saline in the same way, L-NAME+ITMP, ODQ +ITMP, KT5823 +ITMP were prepared by intrathecally administering L-NAME ( 30 nmol), ODQ(11 nmol) and KT5823(20 pmol) 10 minutes prior to ITMP respectively, L-NAME, ODQ, KT5823 worked as the control of inhibitors themselves respectively without ITMP. Subsequently, all rats were subjected to 30 min of left coronary artery occlusion followed by 2 h of reperfusion except the SHAM group. Myocardial infarct size, as a percentage of the AAR,
was determined by 2 , 3 , 5-triphenyltetrazolium stai-ning. Results Compared with CON, the volumes of IS and IS/AAR were reduced in ITMP ( P <0.01 );the protective effects of ITMP were abolished by pre-treatment with L-NAME, ODQ and KT5823 ( P <0.01 );Conclusions NO/cGMP might be involved in the cardioprotective effect of intrathecal morphine pre-conditioning against myocardial ischemia and reperfu-sion injury in rats.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of acupuncture combined with Du-Moxibustion (ADM) on peripheral blood cell count and levels of immune factors in patients with occupational chronic benzene poisoning. Methods A total of 70 patients with occupational chronic benzene poisoning (leukopenia and neutropenia) were selected as the research subjects by judgement sampling method. They were randomly divided into a control group and an ADM group using a random number table method, with 35 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with conventional Western medicine such as leukocyte boosting and symptomatic treatment. While patients in the ADM group were treated with ADM treatment in addition to treatments of the control group, once per week for five consecutive weeks. Peripheral blood samples of patients were collected before and after treatment from both groups, to detect cell counts and serum levels of immune factors. Results The white blood cell count, red blood cell count, absolute lymphocyte count, absolute neutrophil count, platelet count, and levels of hemoglobin, immunoglobulins (Ig) A, IgM, IgG, complement C3 and complement C4 of patients in both groups improved after treatment compared with those before treatment (all P<0.05). The white blood cell count, levels of IgA, IgM, IgG, complement C3 and complement C4 of patients in the ADM group were higher than those in the control group after treatment (all P<0.05). Conclusion ADM treatment can increase peripheral blood white blood cells and serum levels of immune factor in patients with occupational chronic benzene poisoning (leukopenia, neutropenia), which helps improve patient recovery and can be promoted clinically.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of driving pressure-guided individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration on atelectasis in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.Methods:Fifty elderly patients, aged 65-80 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with body mass index of 19-28 kg/m 2, undergoing elective robot-assisted radical prostatectomy under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=25 each) according to the random number table method: traditional lung-protective ventilation group (group C) and driving pressure-guided individualized PEEP group (group D). The method for setting PEEP was as follows: PEEP 5 cmH 2O was used throughout operation in group C. In group D, the optimal PEEP was titrated after intubation and mechanical ventilation and Trendelenburg position-pneumoperitoneum construction, the initial value was the lowest PEEP allowed by the anesthesia machine, the PEEP was increased by 1 cmH 2O (PEEP≤12 cmH 2O) every 4 min, the plateau pressure and PEEP were simultaneously recorded to calculate the driving pressure, and the corresponding PEEP was considered as the optimal PEEP for the individual when the driving pressure reached the minimum.Ultrasound examination was performed after catheterization of radial artery (T 0), after anesthesia induction (T 1), 4 min after developing optimal PEEP ventilation (T 2, 4 min after developing ventilation in group C), after restoration of body position (T 3), before extubation (T 4), and at 2 h after admission to postanesthesia care unit (T 5). Atelectatic aeration loss scores were recorded at T 0, T 1, T 4 and T 5.Bilateral optic nerve sheath diameter was measured at T 0-4.Arterial blood gas analysis was performed at T 0, T 2, T 3 and T 5, PaO 2 and PaCO 2 were recorded, and oxygenation index was calculated.The postoperative pulmonary complications within 3 days after operation were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, atelectasis aeration loss scores at T 4, 5 and PaCO 2 at T 2, 3 were significantly decreased, and PaO 2 and oxygenation index were increased at T 2, 3, 5 in group D ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the bilateral optic nerve sheath diameter and incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Driving pressure-guided individualized PEEP can increase intraoperative oxygenation and decrease the development of atelectasis in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
