METHODS: Wistar rat PASMCs were isolated from explants from the intrapulmonary, incubated with NO donor, sodium nitroprussid (SNP) under 12 or 24 hour normoxic and hypoxic conditions. The cell cycle progression and sub-G 1 of PASMC were analyzed via flow cytometric staining of propidium iodide, and the expression of nuclear transcription factor NF-?B and pro-apoptotic factors caspase-3 were detected using immunochemistry staining. Meanwhile gel electrophoresis of extracted DNA by PASMC was performed. RESULTS: SNP induced PASMC apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner ( P

BACKGROUND: Primate is the best animal to establish a model of spinal implants. However, ethics and cost limit its application. Mixed-breed dogs have similar anatomic structures as human. Moreover, it is easy to obtain with low cost, so it may replace primate to serve as models.OBJECTIVE: To determine the feasibility of canine lumbar spine to establish the anterior interfixation model following measurements of related anatomic data.METHODS: A total of 9 adult healthy dogs were selected. The transversal diameter, sagittal diameter and height of vertebral body and disc were measured, and the artificial vertebral body replacement was performed. Bone graft fusion was observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The transversal diameter, sagittal diameter and height of vertebral body and disc increasedgradually from L_(1) to L_(7), and the height was greatly exceeded its sagittal diameter. All dogs survived, but one was paraplegia. Allthe others stood and acted in 12 h to 72 h after operation. The fusion effect was proved to be good by imageology and histology. The establishment of models was simple and cost-effective, and the biocompatibility of bone tissues and implants, as well as thebone tissue ingrowth can be observed. The lumbar spine of dog can be used as an anterior interfixation model in vitro test.

BACKGROUND: Many methods involved in measuring energy expenditure of physical action, however, study regarding measurements of upper limber movement energy expenditure are few.OBJECTIVIE: To measure the energy expenditure of limber movement using indirect calorimetry, and to analyze the characteristics of upper limber movement energy expenditure and influencing factors such as age and gender.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The comparison observation was performed at the Jiangsu Institute of Sports Science from January to March 2009.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 108 health adults, including 47 males and 61 females, participated in the study, 65 of them aged 20-39 years, and the remained 43 aged 40-59 years.METHODS: Energy expenditure of 4 upper limb movements were performed, including sitting posture arm swing (60 times/min),elbow flexion (40 times/min), shoulder flexion-extension (60 times/min), and lateral arm raise (30 times/min). At each interval,have a 3-minute rest.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Oxygen expenditure of 4 kinds upper limb movements were measured by MetaMax 3B tester. RESULTS: Rest oxygen expenditure of males were greater than that of females (P < 0.05), greater in 20-39 years old than 40-59 years old (P < 0.05). The greatest oxygen consumption occurred in males with arm swing [(550.9±90.6) mL/min], which was (425.8±75.7) mL/min in females. The lowest oxygen expenditure was elbow bend [male: (440.4±82.7) mL/min, female: (367.0±60.1) mL/min]. Net oxygen expenditure of all 4 kinds of upper limb movements was lower than 250mL/min (1 metabolic equivalent).CONCLUSION: ① The energy expenditure of usual upper limber movements below 1 metabolic equivalent. ② Age and body mass has more effect on resting energy expenditure than the gender. ③ The efficiency of young adults upper limb movements is higher than old adults.

BACKGROUND: The regeneration and repair of skeletal muscle after injury relies on the new nucleus formed through muscle satellite cell proliferation. However, there are few reports on the relationship between the skeletal muscle cell proliferation and the vimentin expression.OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between the skeletal muscle cell proliferation and the vimentin expression, as well as the mechanism underlying the repair of exercise-induced skeletal muscle micro-injury. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized controlled animal experiment was done at the Sports Human Science Experimental Center in Hunan Normal University between December 2007 and September 2008. MATERIALS: A total of 50 male SD rats, aged 8 weeks, were randomly divided into a control group and a training group which were subdivided in to four groups at the time points of immediate post-exercise, hour 3, hour 24 and hour 48 post-exercise, with 10 ones in each of the five groups.METHODS: Rats in the training group underwent 3 days of repetitive exhausting eccentric exercise on a treadmill of-16° slope at the speed of 16 m/min. Rats in the control group underwent no running. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Rats in the training group was taken for measurement immediate, 3 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours post-exercise respectively. Immunohistochemistry was adopted to determine the proliferating coil nuclear antigen (PCNA) A expression and the vimentin expression in medial head of triceps brachii muscle cells in each group at different phases of repair.RESULTS: The skeletal muscle cell showed sequentially-changed proliferation. The proliferation index of the training group was significantly higher than that of the control group immediately post-exercise. At hour 24 post-exercise, it reached the peak. Hour 48 post-exercise saw the decreased proliferation. The expression of vimentin also exhibits a sequential change after exercise. Moreover, its immunoreaction score changed with time in the same direction with the proliferation index, but there is no correlation between the two.CONCLUSION: Three days of repeated exhausting eccentric exercise can induce the sequential changes of skeletal muscle cell proliferation and vimentin expressions. Vimentin expression has some kinds of correlations with skeletal muscle cell proliferation, but it is not the only factor that matters.
