Objective To set up a new method of mild hypothermia via lateral ventricle in rabbits following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods Twenty-one New Zealand rabbits were used for this study. TBI was pro- duced with all the rabbits in anesthesia by using free-falling impact model. Animals were randomly divided into three groups: a TBI group, a mild hypothermia group (by perfusion of 25℃Ringer's solution via the lateral ventricle) and a control group. The contents of water and total sodium, potassium of the brain region close to traumatic brain tissue were detected and pathological changes were observed in three groups. Results The number of the injured neurons was increased significantly in both TBI group and mild hypothermia group than that in control group at 72 h after TBI (P

A growing body of evidence has indicated the important role of autophagy receptors in directing ubiquitinated or non-ubiquitinated cargos towards autophagy. Autophagy receptors bind to LC3 (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3) on phagophore and autophagosome membranes, and recognize signals on cargoes in the delivery system of autophagy. However, the diverse domains in the receptor structures determine that their roles would never be limited to autophagy. Up to date, increasing numbers of the receptor proteins have been demonstrated to serve as a molecular link or switch participating in autophagic degradation, apoptosis or cell survival signals. Here, we highlight the non-autophagic roles of these receptor proteins to draw attention to this growing research topic.

Objective To investigate prophylaxis and therapy of early complications following relatives' partial live small bowel transplantation.Methods Four relatives' partial live small bowel transplantations were carried out.Among the 4 patients,there were 3 cases of short intestine syn- drome and one case of non-function of small bowel caused by the absence of nerve ganglion of small in- testine.More than 4 antigens of HLA were completely matched between donators and receptors.In- testines of donators were got from terminal ileum with the length of (150?10) cm.After operations, tacrolimus (FK506),mycophenolate mofetil (MMF),and methylprednisolone were used to prevent rejections.Measures such as use of anticoagulation,improving microcirculation and albumin infusion, aimed at regulating the function of blood coagulation and preventing bleeding and formation of thrombus at anastomotic stoma;famotidine and omeprazole were used to prevent irritable ulcer;use of the third generation of cephalosporins antibiotics,ganciclovir and fluconazol could prevent bacteria,vi- rus and eumycete infections;disinfection and care of easily-infected organs were emphasized;receptors were encouraged to get out of their beds to move frequently;glutamine and enteral nutrition were used early to promote recovery of intestinal function.Results Three days after operation,one patient's lung was infected with baumanii,and the infection had been under control after being treated with the third generation cephalosporins antibiotics;five days after operation,haematoma was detected on an- other patient and was cleared through the second operations growth of eumycete was found in 2 pa- tients' excretion and secretion from enteron,and their situations were improved with fluconazol;acute rejections of the 4 patients were detected 20 days after operation and reversed by the increased use of FK506 combined with methylprednisolone.Among the 4 patients,2 of them have survived for a long time,and the first patient has survived for 6 years and 8 months till now and the other one for 3 years and 2 months;furthermore,other 2 patients respectively died of infections 5 months and 35 days after the operations.Conclusion Because of special constitution of intestine,early complications of rela- tives' partial live small intestine transplantation are frequent and complicated.Therefore,prophylaxis and therapy of early complications are crucial to the success of the transplantation.

Objective To explore the effects of lycium barbarum polysaccharide (LBP) on restraining the mouse pancre?atic cancer cells LTPA by the polarization of macrophages to type 1 macrophages (M1). Methods LTPA tumor model of the subcutaneous CB-17SCID mice was constructed. Model mice were randomly divided into tumor-bearing model group (n=10) and LBP treatment group (n=10). The LBP treatment group was fed 10mg/kg LBP every day, and the tumor-bearing model group was fed the same dose of normal saline. The same amount of macrophages Raw264.7 was randomly divided into the control group and experimental groups (different concentrations of LBP). MTT assay was used to detect the optical density (OD) of Raw264.7 in experimental groups and control group. ELISA was used to detect the levels of the interleukin (IL)-12 and IL-10 in experimental group (LBP was 100 mg/L) and the control group. Flow cytometry was used to test the levels of the membrane protein CD16/32 and CD206 in experimental group (LBP was 100 mg/L) and the control group. The tumor mass was weighted and the volume was calculated after three weeks. The effects of LBP on the growth of subcutaneous tumor were detected. HE staining and KI-67 staining were used to detect the microscopic changes of tumor and the proliferation of the LTPA. Results The dose of 100 mg/L LBP can promote the growth of the macrophages Raw264.7 (P<0.01), and induced the high expression of CD16/32 and low expression of CD206, high secretion of IL-12 and low secretion of IL-10. The weight, volume of the tumor and the expression of KI-67 were significantly lower in experimental group than those in the con?trol group (P<0.01). The microscopic necrosis area range of tumor was larger than that of control group. Conclusion The LBP has the effect of restraining LTPA by the polarization of macrophages to M1.
