Objective To observe the injury of myocardium and to investigate the role of oxidative stress after limbs ischemia reperfusion in rats. Methods 20 male healthy Wistar rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group(C) and ischemia-reperfusion group (IR). The biochemical methods were used to measure the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), myeloperoxidase (MPO), ATP, lactic acid (LD) and ATPase of myocardium. The levels of creatine kinase (CK) and creatine kinase MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) in plasma were also observed. The morphologic changes of myocardium were observed with microscope. Results It was found that after rats’ limbs suffering from ischemia-reperfusion, the level of ATP decreased, the activities of three kinds of ATPase (Na~+-K~+-ATPase, Ca~ 2+ ATPase and Mg~ 2+ ATPase) decreased in different degree (P

In order to explore the effects of printing and dyeing wastewater untreated and treated by bacterial biotechnological method on the specific immune response of Carassius auratus, the tested fish were preimmunized intraperitoneally with Aeromonas hydrophila vaccine then were separately placed into control clean water,untreated printing and dyeing wastewater (dilution ratio 13%,pH=7) and treated water 5 fish of every group were killed on the day 2,4,6,8,10,14,18,25,35 th to detect their immune indexes The results indicated that total leucocytic numbers of blood and serum lysozyme level in fish of clean water and treated water increased rapidly and reached their peaks on the day 8th and 6th respectively after vaccination,then reduced to baseline and maintatined for a period of time Leucocytic numbers in fish in untreated wastewater group decreased on day 2nd then increased gradully to normal,serum lysozyme level in this group had decreasing tendency and was lower than the other 2 groups from beginning to end However titer of anti A hydrophila antibody in serum of untreated water group was only lower than that of treated water group on the day 6th when it appeared After this antibody titers of these 3 groups had no significant defference It indicated that printing and dyeing wastewater inhibited immune response of Carassius auratus ,but water treated by bacterial biotechnological method had no this kind of toxic effect

Objective To investigate cell injury and apoptosis of L-6TG cells induced by simulated ischemia-reperfusion,and to explore its regulating mechanism.Methods Cultured L-6TG cells were randomly divided into control group(C)and simulated ischemia-reperfusion group(IR).The L-6TG cells of C group were cultivated under normal condition in mimicking reperfusion solution,while the L-6TG cells of IR group were cultivated in mimicking ischemic solution for 4 hours,and then cultivated in mimicking reperfusion solution for 4 hours.Superoxide dismutase(SOD),xanthine oxidase(XOD)and free calcium in L-6TG cells were determined in each group;mitochondrial respiration was measured by MTT method.Apoptosis was identified by flow cytometer with propidium iodide(PI)staining method and agarose gel electrophoresis;the immunohistochemical method was used to determine the expression of bcl-2 and caspase-3,and their profiles were half-quantitatively analyzed by automatism image analytical system.Results Compared with the L-6TG cells of C group,after suffering from ischemia and reperfusion each for 4 hours,XOD,free calcium in L-6TG cells and apoptotic percentage were all increased significantly(287.88?8.47 vs 42?3.94 U/g prot,1.547?0.017 vs 7.23?0.28 lnMCF,7.23%?0.28% vs 0.69%?0.07%,P

AIM: To investingate the potential role of apoptosis in the development of acute lung injury(ALI) following limbs ischemia-reperfusion(LIR) in rats and the effects of raurine. METHODS: The model of LIB injury in rats was made. By using TUNEL, electrophoresis, reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) and immunohistochemistry techniques, pulmonary apoptosis, Fas/FasL expressions and Ca~(2+), reactive oxygen species (ROS),the ratio of DNA double chain in tissue were detected in different groups.RESULTS: The rapid appearance of apoptosis in alveolar epithelial cells and pulmonary vascular endothelial cells were observed after LIR in rats. The ratio of DNA double chain decreased and tissue Ca~(2+) increased. The expression of Fas/FasL mRNA and protein was up-regulated in lung tissue of rats after LIR, which was related to the elevation of alveolar epithelial cells and pulmonary vascular endothelial cell apoptosis. Taurine decreased alveolar epithelial cell and pulmonary vascular endothelial cell apoptosis not by down-regulating expression of Fas/FasL system. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that the excessive apoptosis and Fas/FasL system expression may play a role in the pathogensis of ALI following LIB in rats, and taurine decreases alveolar epithelial cell and pulmonary vascular endothelial cell apoptosis.

Objective To explore the possible risk factors for autism spectrum disorders (ASD),and to pro-vide a basis for exploring the etiology of the disease.Methods This case -control study included 68 patients diag-nosed as ASD for a first lifetime(according to the fourth edition of the American Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disordersfor ASD diagnosis)from May 201 4 to January 201 5,and 77 non -ASD controls (normal children, matched on gender)in Jiangxi Children′s Hospital were selected to undergo the risk factor survey for ASD.The survey content included 1 0 categories:general status,birth,feeding,the past history,mother′s pregnancy and her health condi-tion during pregnancy and environmental exposure,parents′occupational exposure,family history and relevant test re-sults.Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the results of the survey.Results The possible risk factors for ASD increased if mother had virus infection 2 years before pregnant (OR =7.97,95%CI:2.42 -26.31 ),had occu-pational exposure (OR =3.99,95%CI:1 .27 -1 2.52),volatile organic compounds exposure during pregnancy (OR =22.21 ,95%CI:2.28 -21 6.09),as well as living closely to transport passage ways during pregnancy (OR =0.59,95%CI:0.38 -0.93)or having a family heredity history (OR =58.50,95%CI:5.81 -589.57).Breastfeeding (OR =0.81 ,95%CI:0.66 -0.98)might be a protective factor in ASD.Conclusions In addition to genetic factors,the ute-rine environment from conception to birth and growth environment play an important role in the pathogenesis of ASD.

Objective To explore the significant risk factors in patients with Tile C pelvic frac-tures.Methods We conducted a retrospective review of all patients with Tile C pelvic fractures in Nanjing First Hospital from January 2010 to December 2014.The data gathered on each patient in-cluded:age,sex,mechanism of injury,visiting time after injury,shock index,Injury severity scale (ISS),Revised trauma score (RTS),Glasgowcoma scale (GCS),lowest PaO2/FiO2 ,6 h lactate clearance rate,concomitant injures and interventious of Tile C pelvic fractures.The data were tested using Student’t-test,χ2 test and logistic regression method.Results The study include 139 consecutive patients.The total mortality was 29.5%.Among them,36 (25.9%)patients died within 48 hours after admission.Multivariate regression analysis showed that shock index (OR=2.591,95%CI 1.041-4.216), ISS (OR = 47.96,95%,CI 15.89-147.23 ),RTS (OR = 6.917,95% CI 1.147-13.862 ),GCS (OR =4.172,95%CI 2.962-6.268),lowest PaO2/FiO2 (OR= 117.016,95% CI 51.011-176.032),6 h lactate clearance rate (OR=2.785,95%CI 1.191-4.892),concurrent head (OR=6.302,95%CI 2.270-13.175)or chest (OR=12.233,95%CI 5.193-33.985)injures were associated with high morality of Tile C pelvic frac-ture (P <0.01).The performing digital subtraction angiography with intravascular embolization can cut the mortality (OR=0.887,95%CI 0.875-0.899).Conclusion In our study,high trauma score,serious shock, coma,PaO2/FiO2 decreased and 6 h lactate clearance rate decreased,combined with the head and chest inju-ry are the important reasons of mortality in patients with Tile C pelvic fracture.It’s vital to control shock actively,use trauma scale and emphasize multidisciplinary cooperation to reduce mortality in patients with Tile C pelvic fractures.

AIM To evaluate the possible role of endogenous nitric oxide (NO) in the development of lung injury after hind limbs ischemia reperfusion (LIR), and the effect of taurine on endogenous NO on the model of lung injury following LIR. METHODS Wistar rats were divided into three groups: control group, ischemia reperfusion group (IR) and taurine+IR (Tau+IR). The changes of PaO 2 ,PaCO 2,lung index (LI) and lung permeability index (LPI) were observed. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), NO and endothelin (ET) in both plasma and the lung as well as the content of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and taurine in the lung were detected. The immunohistochemical method was used to detect level in the expression of NOS protein. RESULTS Taurine improved the pulmonary respiratory following LIR significantly, lightened lung edema, decreased the content of ET in both plasma and lung tissue, increased the content of NO in both plasma and lung tissue and promoted the level in the expression of NOS protein. CONCLUSION Using taurine may lighten lung injury following LIR and this protective effect may due to increasing the content of endogeneous NO and decreasing the level of ET.

Objective To observe the curative effect of Rougan Granules on rats hepatocirrhosis induced by carbon tetra- chloride(CCl_4)with 10 % alcohol and high fat feed.Method The rat model was established by gastric garage of CCh (CCl_4:salad oil=1:1)1 mL/kg twice a week for two weeks,and with 10 % alcohol as drinking water,high fat feed as food.After administration of CCl_4,the rats were divided into 5 groups:the model group,high-,medium-and low-dosage of Rougan Granules groups,the eolchicine group.And normal control group was also set up.After adminis- tration for 6 weeks,hyaluronic acid,typeⅣcollagen and typeⅢprecollagen in serum were measured and liver histopathol- ogy examination was done.Result The contents of hyaluronic acid,typeⅣcollagen and typeⅢprecollagen in model rats were increased significantly,while Rougan Granules could decrease those increase significantly.Liver histopathology exami- nation showed medium or high fatty degeneration of hepatic cell,obvious hyperplasia of fibrous tissue with fibrous distance broaden and pseudolobuli formed in model group,but in Rougan Granules group the general pathological changes of liver were less.Conclusion Rougan Granules have an effect of experimental anti-hepatocirrhosis in rats.

BACKGROUND: Limb ischemia reperfusion (LIR) as a stressor leads to gastric mucosal injury, and then results in the occurrence of stress ulcer.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of LIR on gastric mucosal injury, investigate part of the mechanism, and the role of several transient limb ischemia in the occurrence of gastric mucosal injury.DESIGN: A randomized grouping design and controlled animal experiment.SETTING: Department of Pathophysiology of North China Coal Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the pathophysiological laboratory of North China Coal Medical College from January to June 2002. Fifty-four healthy adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups with 18 rats in each group. Ischemia reperfusion (I/R) group: The rats were duplicated into models according to the Rosenthal method that under superficial anesthesia with ether, the roots of both hindlimbs were ligated by wrapping with rubber strap, blood flow was blocked for 4 hours and then recovered to perfusion for 4 hours, and finally killed by bleeding from abdominal aorta. Ischemic preconditioning group: Before model establishment, blood flow of both hindlimbs was blocked for 5 minutes, and then recovered to perfusion for 5 minutes, which was repeated for four times, and the following operations were the same as those in the I/R group. Control group: The operations were the same as those in the I/R group,but both hindlimbs were ligated at relaxation without blocking the blood flow.METHODS: Sections of gastric mucosa were prepared, and then observed under light microscope and electron microscope, and the index of gastric mucosal injury was determined according to the Guth standard. The colorimetric assay was performed with 721 spectrophotometer at 650 nm, and the amount of gastric combining mucus was calculated.Meanwhile, the blood flow of gastric mucosa, contents of phospholipid and hexosamine in gastric mucus, content of nitric oxide in plasma and gastric tissue and activity of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) in gastric mucosa were determined.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Index of gastric mucosal injury, amount of gastric combining mucus, blood flow of gastric mucosa, contents of phospholipid and hexosamine in gastric mucus, contents of nitric oxide in plasma and gastric tissue and NOS activity in gastric mucosa.RESULTS: All the 54 rats were involved in the analysis of results. ① In the I/R group, gastric mucosal injury was serious, edema, hyperemia, erosion and disintegration of gland of mucosal glands were observed, infiltration of inflammatory cells (formation of ulcer) was observed in basal and inferior mucosa. In the ischemic preconditioning group, the gastric mucosa was complete, and the damaged severity was milder than that in the I/R group; Under electron microscope, the organell structures of gastric parietal and chief cells were incomplete and destroyed. The cell injuries in the ischemic preconditioning group were milder than those in the I/R group (index of injury: 18.00±10.71, 34.00±15.01, P＜ 0.01). ② The blood flow and combining mucosal amount of gastric mucosa, contents of phospholipid and hexosamine in gastric mucus in the ischemic preconditioning group and I/R group were all obviously lower than those in the control group [(2.12±0.56), (10.84±2.56), (25.52±2.97) mL/(kg·h); (2.01±0.91), (2.79±0.73), (3.99±0.87) mg;(7.68±1.95), (9.74±1.04), (11.98±1.98) mg/g; (3.83±1.18), (5.42±0.47), (5.76±1.21) mg/g, P ＜ 0.05, 0.01], those the above indexes were all higher in the ischemic preconditioning group than in the I/R group. ③ The contents of nitric oxide in plasma and gastric tissue and NOS activity in gastric mucosa in the ischemic preconditioning group and I/R group were significantly lower than those in the control group [(250.0±5.6), (270.0±11.3), (210.0±7.4) μmol/L; (9.34±0.67), (11.34±1.00), (7.50±0.67) μ kat/g, P ＜ 0.01], those were also signficantly higher in the ischemic preconditioning group than in the I/R group.CONCLUSION: As a stressor, LIR can lead to gastric mucosal injury, and cause stress ulcer.Ischemic preconditioning can alleviate the gastric mucosal injury following LIR
