BACKGROUND: Researches find that grape seed proanthocyanidins (GSP) can eliminate free radicals, protect heart against ischemia-reperfusion injury and enhance learning and memory abilities in experimental animal, but their effects on the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury remain unclear.OBJECTIVE: To study the protective effects of proanthocyanidins derived from grape seeds on the cerebral ischemic reperfused brain by measuring the total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC), nitric oxide synthase activities and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in brain tissue of mice.DESIGN: A completely randomized and controlled study.SETTING: Department of Pathophysiology and Functional Central Laboratory, Jinzhou Medical College; Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was conducted in the Department of Functional Central Laboratory, Jinzhou Medical College from March to August 2004. Forty Kunming mice, provided by the Experimental Animal Center, Jinzhou Medical College, were randomly divided into five groups: sham control group, cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (IR group) and cerebral ischemia-reperfusion treated with low or high dose of GSP or nimdipine (IR+GSP or IR+Nim) group with eight mice in each group.METHODS: ① Animal model establishment: The animals were anesthetized with ether. Then they were incised through median incision of the neck. The bilateral common carotid arteries were then occluded by microaneurysm clips for 30 minutes. After removing the clips, return of flow was visualized in the arteries. ② Model group and control group:The mice in low or high dose of GSP treated group or nimdipine treated group were injected GSP or nimdipine 10, 40, 2 mg/kg body mass respectively during the common carotid arteries occlusion and again at 24hours after reperfusion, while the mice in sham control group were injected the same volume distilled water with 40 mg/kg body mass. After 72-hour reperfusion, nitric oxide synthase activities, the total antioxidative capacity and MDA content in brain tissue of mice in each group were detected with chemical chromatometry. ③ The results were assessed by t test.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Nitric oxide synthase activities, the total antioxidative capacity and MDA content in brain tissue of mice in each group were detected.RESULTS: Data of forty Kunming mice was entered the results analysis without any loss. ① Total antioxidative capacity: Total antioxidative capacity in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious lower than that in the sham control group (t=8.145, P=0.000) while total antioxidative capacity in low or high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious higher than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t=6.313, 8.956, 4.14, P ＜ 0.01). ② Nitric oxide synthase activities: Nitric oxide synthase activities in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious higherthan that in the sham control group (t=12.541, P ＜ 0.01), while nitric oxide synthase activities in low or high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious lower than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t=2.231, 8.956, 7.260, P ＜ 0.05-0.01). ③ MDA content: MDA content in cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group was obvious higher than that in the sham control group (t=7.883, P ＜ 0.01), while high dose of GSP treated group and nimdipine treated group was obvious lower than that in the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group (t =5.234,4.518, P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: GSP exerted a protective effect on the cerebral ischemic reperfused brain by enhancing total antioxidative capacity and reducing lipid peroxidantion and nitric oxide synthase activities.

BACKGROUND: After tissue-engineering products transplantation, angiogenesis played an important role in the function restoring of defective organs. The natural tissue-engineering materials had a wide application in tissue engineering due to its favorable biocompatibility and degradability, at the same time its pro-angiogenic function enhanced the achievement ratio of tissue-engineering products transplantation. Therefore, they attract much attention during recent years. OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research status of incubating induced angiogenesis of tissue-engineered natural scaffold, so as to give some theoretical basis for further study on clinical application of natural tissue engineering materials. METHODS: Relevant literatures in PubMed and Springerlink published between January1995 and June 2009 were searched by compute with the key words of "tissue-engineering products, natural materials" in English. While relevant Chinese articles in CKNI published between January1999 and June 2007 were also searched with the key words of "tissue-engineering natural materials, collagen, chitosan, fibrin" in Chinese. After primary selection, inclusive articles were those about study and experimental study of induced angiogenesis of tissue-engineered natural scaffold. Exclusive criteria: repetitive and obsolescent articles. A total 35 literatures were finally analyzed in accordance with the criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The natural tissue engineering materials were synthesized by macromolecules out of normal tissue, whose multiple bioinformation provided signal for cells and benefited for cellular adhesion and maintenance. Collagen protein, fiber gel protein, and chitosan summarized in this study were beneficial for inducing angiogenesis but limited to mechanical characteristics. Therefore, to construct natural materials inducing angiogenesisis is prospect.

Objective: To study validity and reliability of Wolf motor function test (WMFT) on assessing the upper extremities motor function of acute stroke patients so as to guide clinical application. Method: Twenty-three stroke patients in acute stage participated in the study. Patients were assessed twice with WMFT and the upper extremities motor function test of Fugl-Meyer movement assessment (U-FMA) within one week. The correlation between the assessment results of WMFT and U-FMA were analyzed to study the validity and reliability of WMFT. Result: WMFT was highly correlated with U-FMA in total scores (r =0.922, 0.929, P＜0.001). There were high correlation in all items of WMFT between two assessment sessions. The intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were 0.989, 0.997 for intrarater and 0.980, 0.991 for interrater. Conclusion: The WMFT is valid and reliable on assessing upper extremities motor function of stroke patients in acute stage.
