Objective:To evaluate the effects of rapamycin on the proliferation,apoptosis and cell cycle of glomerular mesangial cells induced by high glucose,and to explore its significance in the prevention and treatment of diabetic nephropathy. Methods:The rat GMC HBZY-1 was divided into four groups:control group,high glucose group,the first group of high glucose plus rapamycin,the second group of high glucose plus rapamycin. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the proliferation of cells, flow cytometry was introduced to evaluate the apoptosis and cell cycle of HBZY-1,Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA of AngiotensinⅡ(ANGⅡ),transfor ming growth factor beta1 ( TGF-β1 ) and vascular endothelial growth factor ( VEGF ) . Results: The proliferation level of HBZY-1 induced by high glucose was significantly increased,and the level of apoptosis decreased,and the expression level of ANGⅡ,TGF-β1 and VEGF was increased. Rapamycin significantly inhibited,and there was a dose dependent,and down regulated the expression of ANGⅡ,TGF-β1,and VEGF. For the cell cycle,the S phase cells in the high glucose group were significantly higher than those in the normal group (P<0. 05),and the S phase cell proportion was decreased after rapamycin intervention (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Rapamycin can inhibit the proliferation of HBZY-1 in high glucose,promote its apoptosis and lead to G1/S arrest,and down regulate the expression of ANGⅡ,TGF-β1 and VEGF.

MBP was isolated and purified from bovin spinal cord as described by Deibler. A sensitive and specific RIA was used for quantitatiag the lavel of MBP in tie CSF samples which was collected from 106, patients with various neurological diseases. In the funetional headache group, the mean level of MBP in CSF was 3.0 ? 2.24ng/ml, so the upper control level of CSF MBP was 7.48 ng/ml (X+2SD). The mean level of MBP in CSF of 33 patients with MS was 21.98?11.82 ng/ml. Thirty-one cases had elevated level of CSF MBP (93.94%). The CSF MBP level of MS patients was significantly higher than the level of patients with sporadic encephalitis, other neurological diseases, and headache (p

Objective To investigate the effects of normobaric hyperoxia intervention on learning and memory abilities of valproic acid(VPA) autism model rats and the morphology of pyramidal cells in hippocampus CA1 area.Methods Animal model groups of autism were obtained in male offspring of the Wistar rats that received intraperitoneal injection of 600 mg/kg VPA at the 12.5 day after pregnancy.According to the eye opening time,behavior,weaning weight and the learning and memory abilities which were evaluated by the Y electricity maze test at the 28th day after birth,40 male VPA autism model rats were randomly selected 20 only and divided into normobaric hyperoxia model group (group A,n =10),atmospheric air model group (group B,n =10).Normal control groups were obtained in male offspring of Wistar rats that received intraperitoneal injection of equivalent physiological saline at the same period pregnancy.(group C,n =10).Rats in group A were treated with oxygen for 1 h per day and lasted 1 week;group B and C were treated with normal air.The learning and memory abilities of three groups were assessed at the 35th day after birth.The immunohistochemistry methods and image analysis were used to observe the pyramidal cells of autism model rats in hippocampal CA1 region.The effect of normobaric hyperoxia therapy on pyramidal cell of autism model rats in hippocampal CA1 region were evaluated by HE staining technique.Results The trying times of group A after treatment were less than those before treatment (31.15 ± 0.99 vs 31.54 ± 0.97,t =2.739,P =0.018).The memory times were more than those before treatment (3.00± 0.58 vs 2.69 ± 0.48,t =-2.309,P =0.040).The trying times of group A after treatment were less than those in group B after treatment (P =0.016).The memory times of group A were not different from that in group B after treatment(P=0.810).The morphology of pyramidal cells in hippocampal CA1 region showed that the pyramidal cells of the autism model rats had apoptosised.The number of apoptotic cells reduced and the number of normal form cells increased after the normobaric hyperoxia intervention compared with the autism model rats.Conclusion Normobaric hyperoxia intervention can improve the learning and memory abilities of the autism model rats.The apoptosis of the pyramidal neurons in hippocampal CA1 might be reduced after the normobaric hyperoxia intervention.

Objective To study the formations of several ridges in peripheral artery velocity tracing. Methods The experimental models of constrainting limb and adrenaline were performed in 6 juvenile susscrota domesticas,tbe variations of the external lilac artery velocity tracing observed,and the parameters of peak systolic velocity (PSV), minimum post-systolic velocity (MPV), peak diastolic velocity(PDV) and end diastolic velocity(EDV) were obtained. Results With the increase of downstream circulation resistance, systolic waveshape inclined to acumination, MPV gradually degraded to zero and negatively increased subsequently, diastolic wave amplitude lowered, and EDV gradually decreased to zero. The stronger vasoconstriction was, the more striking the variations were. Conclusions Cardiac ejection forms systolic dominant wave, post-systolic backward ware is the result of backstreaming because of elastic recoil of downstream artery,and diastolic forward ware is the result of blood transient acceleration caused by elastic recoil of upstream artery. Systemic vascular resistance has significant effect on diastolic waveshape,and the occurrence of post-systolic backward ware implies downstream circulation resistance obviously increases.

Objective To study the haemodynamics changes in the proximal upstream artery caused by different degrees of abdominal aorta extremity stenosis.Methods The lateral walls of the abdominal aorta extremity were pinched with the vascular clamp to achieve 1/4,1/2 and 3/4 stenosis or occlusion in 6 juvenile susscrota domesticas,the velocity tracing of the proximal artery recorded,and the parameters of the peak systolic velocity(PSV)and minimum diastolic velocity(MDV)were obtained and statistically analyzed for their correlation with different degrees of abdominal aorta extremity stenosis.Results The diastolic velocity tracing vanished when stenosis reached a certain degree,the needle ridge and low amplitude diastolic velocity tracing emerged when stenosis to a certain extent,and only the needle ridge was present when the abdominal aorta extremity was completely obstructed.PSV reduced with the aggravation of stenosis.Conclusions The proximal upstream artery systolic ridge caused by abdominal aorta extremity stenosis tends to be acUminate,which indicates serious stenosis of the downstream artery.The systolic needle ridge and the absence of diastolic velocity tracing would suggest a complete obstruction of the blood stream in the downstream lumina.

Objective To study the common femoral artery haemodynamics caused by different degrees of abdominal aorta extremity stenosis.Methods The lateral walls of abdominal aorta extremity were pinched with vascular clamp resulting in 1/3,1/2,2/3,3/4 stenosis by turns in 6 juvenile susscrota domesticas.The parameters of peak systolic velocity(PSV),minimum diastolic velocity(MDV),PSV/MDV(S/D)and MDV/PSV(D/S)of common femoral artery were obtained and their correlations with degrees of abdominal aorta extremity stenosis were confirmed by statistical analysis.Results The backwardware vanished or turned to forwardware when stenosis achieved certain degree.PSV had significant negative correlation with stenosis degree(R=0.985,R2=0.969),but D/S had significant positive correlation with stenosis degree when stenosis degree exceed 1/3(R=0.918,R2=0.843).Conclusions It can be concluded there is proximal stenosis disease and change of distal effective circulating blood volume according to the Doppler velocity tracing analysis.PSV and D/S are valuable parameters,however waveform should be ignored.
