OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates on migration and membrane potential of small intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6),and to explore the promoting effects of Yiqi jianpi herb Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza on gastrointestinal mucosal injury repair and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS Under normal conditions or loaded with the inhibitor of potassium channel 4-aminopyridine(4-AP),IEC-6 cells were treated with Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates (25-200 mg · L-1) for 24 h,respectively. IEC-6 cell migration was observed by the phase contrast microscope and cell membrane potential was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates (50 and 100 mg · L-1) increased the number of migrated IEC-6 cell compared with normal control group(P<0.01,P<0.05). Compared with normal control group,4-AP reduced the number of migrated IEC-6 cell(P<0.01). Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates (50-200 mg · L-1)reversed cell migration inhibited by 4-AP significantly when compared with 4-AP model group(P<0.01). The results of flow cyometry analysis showed that the cell membrane poten?tial was increased after treatment with Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates(50 mg · L-1)compared with normal control group and resulted in an increase in cell membrane hyperpolarization(P<0.01). Compared with normal control group,4-AP decreased the cell membrane potential(P<0.01)and resulted in cell membrane depolarization. Also,compared with 4-AP model group,cell membrane depolarization induced by 4-AP was reversed by treatment with Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates(100 and 200 mg·L-1). CONCLUSION Codonopsis and Glycyrrhiza glycoconjugates may promote gastrointestinal mucosal injury repair and the mechanisms may involve the activation of signaling pathways by affecting polyamine-dependent intestinal epithelial cell migration voltage-gated K+channels.

Objective To determine the ED50 of dexmedetomidine for suppressing cardiovascular responses to placement of laryngeal mask airway (LMA) in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery with induction of propofol. Methods ASA I or II Patients aged 18 to 55 undergoing elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery were enrolled. After an bolus dose of dexmedetomidine over 10 min , anaesthesia was induced with target-controled propofol, and then bolus of vecuronium of 0.1 mg/kg was injected when the BIS was between 45 and 55. LM palcement was performed 3 minutes after vecuronium injection. The modified Dixon ’ s up-and-down method was used to determine the bolus dose of dexmedetomidine , starting from 1.0 μg/kg (step size:0.1 μg/kg). Cardiovascular response was defined as an increase in SBP and/or HR by 15% of baseline within 2 min after placement of LMA. The test ended after at least 7 crossovers ( successive ‘response’ or ‘non-response’) were obtained. Probit analysis was used to calculate ED50, ED95 and 95% confidence interval (CI). Results The ED50 and ED95 (95% confidence interval) of dexmedetomidine for suppressing cardiovascular responses to placement of LMA was 0.65 μg/kg (0.44-0.80) μg/kg and 0.94 μg/kg (0.79-2.47) μg/kg. Conclusion Under induction of target-controled propofol , the ED50 of dexmedetomidine is 0.65 μg/kg for suppressing cardiovascular responses to placement of LMA in female patients.

Objective To screen altered proteins of hippocampus in the stress-induced depression (STRID) rat model, and explore the potential molecular mechanism. Methods Twenty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control group and STRID group, 10 rats in each group. Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) methods including fasting for solids and liquids, electric foot-shock, reversing day and night, cold water swimming, cage tilt, scare stimulation and tail pinch were conducted on STRID rats with no repeats for 28 days to make up the depression animal model. The control group was normally fed during this period. After the stress stimulation, the hippocampus protein samples were used for two dimensional electrophoresis to screen the differentially expressed protein, and then mass spectrum identification and function analyze were conducted. Results Compared with the control group, 34 proteins were altered in STRID group. Among which, 18 were up-regulated, and 16 were down-regulated. The differentially expressed proteins mainly located in cytoplasm, mitochondrion, extracellular exosome and myelin sheath. The involved signaling pathways included metabolic pathway, oxidative phosphorylation pathway, and Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and Huntington's disease pathways. Conclusion The altered proteins and dysfunction of nerve signaling, and the excess of oxidative phosphorylation in hippocampus of STRID rats may be one of the pathogenesises.
