Oxidative stress(OS)is one of the factors leading to vascular cognitive impairment(VCI). Reactive oxygen species(ROS)produced by Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase(NOX)is an important pathogenic molecule of VCI.Risk factors for VCI such as hyperglycemia and decomposition/re-implantation always increases an upstream NOX activation.Other risk factors such as advanced age, hypertension and stroke are the downstream damage caused by NOX-dependent ROS.The causes of VCI include both risk factors related to NOX and the cell damage caused by NOX-dependent ROS.Studies have shown that the inhibiting of NOX activity can reduce cognitive impairment and the risk factors in animal models of VCI.In this article, we review the research progress of the role and mechanism of NOX in VCI.

BACKGROUND:It is very nscessary for the prevention and treatment of ostaoarthritis(OA)to understand the tensile mechanical properties of lateral collateral ligaments(LCLs)of knee joints with osteoarthritis,while reports on it are still few.OBJECTIVE:To compare the LCL tensile mechanical property indexes of knee joints between normal animals and OA medels established for this purpose,and to provide qualitative and quantitative referential data about effects of OA on the LCL tensile mechanical properties of animal knee joints.DESlGN,TIME AND SETTING:A randomized controlled trial was finished at the Mechanical Expedmental Center of Jilin University from December 20th to 30th in 2008.MATERIALS:A total of 20 male SD rats of 6 months old were divided into a normal control group and a model group,with 10ones in each group.METHOOS:Rats in the model group were copied into OA models.after which test on tensile was performed to each of the ten rats in the two groups at the speed of 5mm/min on Universal Testing Machine,Shimadzu.Data obtained from the test were processed in polynomial though least square method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Tensile maximum load.maximum displacement,maximum stress,maximum strain and stress-strain curves.RESULTS:The tensile maximum load,maximum stress,maximum displacement and maximum strain in the normal control group and the model group were(12.754±2.795)N,(27.681±5.832)MPa,(2.754±0.707)mm,(11.679±2.373)%and (7.183±1.817)N,(16.162±3.403)MPa,(1.827±0.768)mm,(8.019±2.811)% respectively,from which we could see that each index in the normal control group was greater than that in the model group obviously (P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:The tensile maximum load,maximum stress,maximum displacement and maximum strain all decreased after OA,which indicates that osteoarthritis has certain effects on tensile mechanical properties of LCLs of knee joints as well as stress relaxation.

Objective According to the special changes of ECG in hyperkalemia animals, explore a method to reproduce a rabbits model for hyperkalemia. Methods Three programs were applied by intravenous drip of 3%KCl to reproduce the hyperkalemia model. In the first program,once the wide and deformed QRS complex occurred, the potassium drip should be stopped immediately. In the second program,the wide and deformed QRS complex was kept for 30 min by adjusting the speed of potassium infusion. In the third program, once low and flat P wave and peaked T wave appeared, immediately adjusted the speed of potassium infusion in order to keep for 30 min. And HR, BP, urine output and serum potassium were monitored simultaneously. Hyperkalemia is defined as serum potassium≥5.1 mol/L. The successful hyperkalemia model should keep serum potassium≥5.1 mol/L after ceasing potassium given 30 min. Results The second and third programs could reproduce a hyperkalemia model successfully. The serum potassium returned to normal within 30 min after stopping potassium given in the first program. Conclusion The method which keep low and flat P wave and peaked T wave for 30 min and keep the wide and deformed QRS complex 30 min could reproduce the hyperkalemia model successfully.

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of paeoniflorin in protection of retinal ischemia injury. Methods Fifty.four male specefic pathogen free ( SPF) degree Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group and paeoniflorin group. Retinal ischemia injury was induced by raising the intraocular pressure of right eyes of rats to 110 mmHg for 30 minutes. The rats of paeoniflorin group were administrated through intraperitoneal injection of 5 mg/kg paeoniflorin each day for 14 days. OCT and electroretinogram ( ERG ) were performed to detect the thickness of retinal nerve fiber layer+retinal ganglion cell layer+inner plexiform layer ( NGI) and electrophysiological changes of retina, respectively. Retrograde labelling of retinal ganglion cells ( RGCs ) was used to evaluate the survival number of RGCs. Western blot analysis was used to detect NLRP3,apoptosis.associated speck.like protein containing a caspase activation and recruitment domain (ASC),cleaved caspase 1 (c.caspase 1), IL.18,and IL.1β expression. The use and care of animals complied with the statement of the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology ( ARVO ) and Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results The thickness of retinal NGI in model control group was ( 58. 2 ± 1. 7)μm, which was significantly lower than ( 84. 8 ± 1. 9)μm in normal control group and(71. 1±2. 4)μm in paeoniflorin group (both at P<0. 05). The amplitudes of A and B waves in paeoniflorin group and normal control group were significantly higher than those in model control group ( both at P<0. 05 ) . The number of RGC in model control group was significantly lower than that in paeoniflorin group and normal control group ( both at P<0. 05). The relative expressions of NLRP3,ASC,c.caspase 1,IL.18 and IL.1β in model control group were significantly higher than those in normal control group and paeoniflorin group (all at P<0. 05). Conclusions The paeoniflorin can prevent retinal ischemia induced injury of the retina through NLRP3 inflammasomes pathway,which provides a new treatment strategy for clinical therapy.
