Objective To investigate the protective effects of luteolin on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods 40 SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham group,model group,luteolin low and high dose groups.Each group was given oral administration for 7 days.After 1 h of last administration,the CIRI ( cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury) group was produced inserting 5-0 line into the internal carotid artery.Then levels of IL-10, IL-1βand TNF-αcontents in myocardial tissues were measured.Meanwhile,infarct size was detected by TTC staining and number of BrdU +and Nestin + were measured by immunohistochemical methods.Results Compared with model group, luteolin could significantly decrease the levels of TNF-αand IL-1βin cerebral tissues(P<0.05),improve IL-10 content in cerebral tissues(P<0.05),and effectively reduce myocardial infarct range(P<0.05).Meanwhile luteolin could improve the expressions of BrdU + and Nestin + in cerebral tissues(P <0.05).Conclusion Luteolin has beneficial effects on rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and improves endogenous neural stem cells proliferation.

Objective To investigate protective effects of polysaccharides from Platycarya strobilacea Sieb.et Zucc on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.MethodsForty Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups:sham group,model group,Rehmannia glutinosa polysaecharide low,and high dose groups.Each group was given oral administration for 7 days.After 1 h of last administration, the CIRI (cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury) group was produced inserting 5-0 line into the internal carotid artery.Neurological functional score was evaluated according to the method of Zea longa's score, meanwhile,infarct size was detected by TTC staining.Levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity,malondialdehyde (MDA), IL-10, IL-1β and TNF-α contents in cerebral tissues were measured.TUNEL staining was used to assess the number of TUNEL-positive cells of the ischemic cortex.Western blot was used to analyze the expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 in cerebral tissues.ResultsCompared to model group, Platycarya strobilacea a polysaccharides could significantly improve neurogical functions,greatly decrease the contents of MDA, IL-10 and IL-1β in cerebral tissues,improve SOD activity and IL-10 content in cerebral tissues,and effectively reduce cerebral infarct range.Meanwhile Platycarya strobilacea polysaccharides could enhance the expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 in cerebral tissues.ConclusionPlatycarya strobilacea polysaccharides have beneficial effects on rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury, which may be mediated at least in part by the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway.

Metallothionein is a sulfhydryl-rich,and chelating a large number of metal ions,which is widely found in biological world.It is very highlighted that MT had the same physical and chemical features from different origins.Plenty of research data indicated that MTs contain 20 free sulfhydryl genes,as well as their sulfhydryl clusters,It is a multifunctional protein in health.Many experiments demonstrate that MTs may be a novel target of original new drugs because they play a role in regulating and controlling the organ fibrosis and tumor.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and treatment of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) in children. Methods The clinical data of 67 children with PSVT were analyzed retrospectively, and the therapeutic effects of different treatments were compared. Results The clinical manifestations of infants were paleness, shortness of breath, irritability and sweating, and children showed chest tightness, palpitations, abdominal discomfort and fatigue. The curative effect of electric cardioversion, transesophageal atrial pacing, physical therapy, and drug therapy was statistically different (P<0.05), The different cardioversion rates of them were observed for the treatment of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. The cardioversion rate of transesophageal atrial pacing, was the highest, and the rate of physical therapy was the lowest. There was no significant difference in the cardioversion rate between propafenone, digoxin and amiodarone. Conclusion The clinical manifestations of PSVT in infants are atypical and easily to be ignored. There are many methods for treatment of PSVT. The vagus nerve can be stimulated first, and, if no response, either drugs or electric cardioversion and transesophageal atrial pacing can be used. The cardioversion rate of transesophageal atrial pacing is higher. The drug effectiveness for the treatment of PSVT depends on many factors, and our choice of medication varies from person to person.

Objective To investigate the relationship between interleukin 1β( IL?1β) , interleukin?33 ( IL?33) , neutrophil?to?lymphocyte ratio ( NLR ) and atrial fibrillation. Methods Eighty?two patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation treated in the department of cardiology in the Fourth People′s Hospital of Jinan from October 2015 to October 2016 were enrolled in the study,including 43 patients with persistent atrial fibrillation and 39 patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. 50 healthy subjects were selected as the control group.
