AIM:To investigate the influential factors of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability and to observe the effects of zileuton,a selective 5-lipoxygenase inhibitor (5-LO),on focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI).METHODS:The right middle cerebral artery of the rat was occluded by inserting a thread through internal carotid artery for 2 h,and then reperfused for 24 h. Zileuton (10,50 mg?kg-1,po) was orally administered 2 h before ischemia and at 0,5,10 h after reperfusion. The permeability of blood brain barrier (BBB) was detected by using Evans blue (EB) as a labelling compound. The degree of cerebral edema was estimated by AutoCAD image analysis software. The mRNA of cysteiny leukotrienes receptor1 (CysLTR1) was detected by RT-PCR. The content of LTB4 in serum was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expressions of AQP4 and MMP-9 proteins were measured by immunohistochemical staining method. RESULTS:After middle cerebral artery occlussion 2 h/reperfusion 24 h,the permeability of BBB in the brain tissue of injured side and the brain edema degree were increased. The content of LTB4 in serum was elevated. The expression of CysLTR1 mRNA from the brain tissue of occluded side was enhanced. The expressions of MMP-9 and AQP4 proteins of the ischemia realm and ischemia penumbra (IP) of the infarct focus perimeter were increased. Both 10 and 50 mg?kg-1 doses of zileuton dramatically relieved the BBB permeability destruction and the degree of the brain edema,inhibited the expression of CysLTR1 mRNA in the brain tissue and also reduced the content of LTB4 in serum. The expressions of AQP4 and MMP-9 proteins in the brain tissue were also decreased.CONCLUSION:The permeability of BBB is destroyed after the focal CIRI. The mechanisms of protective effect of zileuton might be attributed to its effects by inhibiting the activation of 5-LO pathways on the brain tissue and circulatory blood,reducing the expressions of AQP4 and MMP-9 proteins of the ischemia and IP realm in the brain tissue.

Objective:To study the effect of continuous blood purification on inflammatory state and immune response in patients with multiple injury and sepsis.Methods:88 patients with multiple injury and sepsis who were treated in our hospital from January 2015 to May 2016 were selected as the research object,they were divided into the control group (n=44) and observation group (n=44) according to random number table method.The control group was given conventional treatment,and the observation group was given continuous blood purification treatment.The acute physiology and chronic health conditions Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ)score was observed in two groups Ⅱ at 3 d after treatment.The serum content of Interleukin-2(IL-2),Interleukin-4(IL-4),Interleukin-10(IL-10) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) were detected by ELISA method.The levels of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD8 + and NK cell were analyzed by flow cytometry.The urea nitrogen (BUN),serum creatinine (Scr),prothrombin time (PT),thrombin time (TT),activated partial blood coagulation time (APTT) were tested by automatic biochemical analyzer.Results:The APACHE Ⅱ score,BUN and Scr levels in observation group were lower than the control group (P＜0.05).The content ofIL-2,IL-4,IL-10 and IFN-γ in observation group were lower than the control group (P＜0.05).The levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+ and NK in observation group were higher than the control group (P＜0.05).The levels ofPT,TT and APTT in observation group were lower than the control group (P＜0.05).Conclusion:Continuous blood purification in patients with multiple injury and sepsis had better clinical curative effect,can reduce inflammation,improve immune function and the function of blood coagulation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the lethal blood level, the target organs and tissues, the toxicant storage depots and the postmortem redistribution in mice died of emamectin benzoate poisoning. METHODS: The mice model of emamectin benzoate poisoning was established via intragastric injection. The main poisoning symptoms and the clinical death times of mice were observed and recorded dynamically in the acute poisoning group as well as the sub-acute poisoning death group. The pathological and histomorphological changes of organs and tissues were observed after poisoning death. The biodistribution and postmortem redistribution of emamectin benzoate in the organs and tissues of mice were assayed by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at 0h, 24h, 48h and 72h after death. The lethal blood concentrations and the concentrations of emamectin benzoate were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) at different time points after death. RESULTS: The symptoms of nervous and respiratory system were observed within 15-30 min after intragastric injection. The average time of death was (45.8 ± 7.9) min in the acute poisoning group and (8.0 ± 1.4) d in the sub-acute poisoning group, respectively. The range of acute lethal blood level was 447.164 0-524.463 5 mg/L. The pathological changes of the organs and tissues were observed via light microscope and immunofluorescence microscope. The changes of emamectin benzoate content in the blood, heart, liver, spleen, lung, kidney and brain of poisoning mice showed regularity within 72 h after death (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The target organs of emamectin benzoate poisoning include heart, liver, kidney, lung, brain and contact position (stomach). The toxicant storage depots are kidney and liver. There is emamectin benzoate postmortem redistribution in mice.

Objective To compare the severity of sensorineural hearing impairment resulted from radiotherapy (RT) and radiochemotberapy (CRT) in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods Between March 2002 and May 2007, 100 initially diagnosed NPC patients in Shandong Tumor Hospital and Qi Lu Hospital were randomized to RT group and CRT group. All patients underwent intensity modulated radiation therapy. In CRT group, concurrent and adjuvant CDDP were administered (CDDP 25 mg/m2/d for 3 days to 4 cycles). Pure tone auditory threshold examination was performed 1 week ,6 months, 1 year and 2 years after the completion of radiotherapy. Statistical analyses were performed using Mann-Whit-ney U test,chi-square test and Fisber's exact probability test. Results The high-frequency threshold was significantly increased in CRT group comparing with RT group at 1- and 2-year after the treatment. In RT group, the hearing threshold was impaired immediately after the treatment, partially recovered within the first year but impaired again after 2 years. In CRT group, hearing threshold was impaired at the same time and kept getting worse until 1 year after radiotherapy, which could not be recovered. Conclusions Patients with NPC treated with radiotherapy and concurrent/adjuvant chemotherapy have more severe sensorineural hearing impairment comparing with those with radiotherapy alone, especially to the high frequency sound in the speech range. Inner ear tissue tolerance should be redefined for patients receiving radiochemotherapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of chitosan/PVA nerve conduits which used for repairing sciatics nerve defect in rats.MethodsTwenty-seven rats were divided into 3 groups randomly,with 9 rats in each group. Firstly, the 15mm defects in the left sciatic nerves were made in the rats and were respectively repaired with chitosan/PVA conduits graft (group A), the silicon conduits graft (group B),and autografts (group C). At 12 weeks after the operations, the left sciatic nerves were taken out, and the comparative evaluation was made on the repairing effects by wet weight of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles, histological examination,computerized imaging analysis and True Blue retrograde tracing. ResultsThe wet weight of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles showed no significant difference between the chitosan/PVA graft and autograft groups (P ＞ 0.05). The wet weight of gastrocnemius and soleus muscles in significant difference between the chitosan/PVA graft and the silicon group at 12 weeks after the operation(P ＜ 0.05). The nerve fiber density showed no statistically significant differences between the chitosan/PVA and autograft groups(P＞ 0.05).The regenerative nerve fiber in group B had normal morphological and structural characters under transmission electron microscope.True Blue-labeled neuron cell bodies were found within both anterior horn of gray matter in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglions (DRGs) ipsilateral to the operated side of the tested rats on illumination with ultra-violet light 1 week after the injection of True Blue.Conclusion Chitosan/PVA nerve conduit can effectively promote the nerve regeneration and myelinization of rat sciatic nerve, which is expected to substitute for autograft to repair nerve defects succesfully.
