AIM: To explore the mechanism of myocardium protection after ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by preconditioning with ischemia in human. METHODS: Thirty - six patients underwent valve replacement were divided into ischemic preconditioning group (IP group, 20 cases) and non -ischemic preconditioning group (control group, 16 cases) according to whether they were given single cycle reperfusion before cardioplegia or not. Serum levels of interleukin -8 and 10 were measured with ELISA. Expressions of myocardial Bel -2 and caspase -3 were analyzed. RESULTS: The inflammatory factors IL - 8 and IL - 10 increased to the highest level in serum at 6 h after declamping and recovered to normal level on 5 d after declamping. On 6 h, 1 d and 2 d after declamping, serum level of IL -8 was significantly lower in IP group than that in control group ( P < 0.05 ) , but serum level of IL -10 was higher in IP group (P < 0.05 ). Expression of myocardial Bel - 2 and caspase - 3 increased in both groups after reperfusion, and Bel - 2 was lower in the control group than that in IP group while the level of caspase - 3 was higher (P < 0.05). Expression of myocardial Bel - 2 had positive correlation with IL - 10 and negative correlation with IL - 8.CONCLUSION: Ischemic preconditioning has the effect of protection of human myocardial cells after ischemia/reperfusion injury through decreasing systemic inflammatory response following ischemia reperfusion injury.

Objective To observe the effect of Chinese yam polysaccharide on the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in rats with renal ischemia reperfusion injury. Methods SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group and Chinese yam polysaccharide group. Renal ischemia reperfusion injury model in rats was prepared. Seven days before operation, Chinese yam polysaccharide group was gastrically administrated with yam polysaccharide (200 mg/kg) daily, sham operation group and model group with same volume of saline respectively. BUN and SCr were detected postoperative 6 h, the protein expression of HIF-1αin renal tissue was detected by Western Blot, and HIF-1αand VEGF mRNA expression in renal tissue were detected by RT-PCR. Results Compared with sham operation group, serum levels of BUN and SCr of model group and Chinese yam polysaccharides group increased (P<0.01), and the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α, mRNA expression of VEGF in renal tissue increased (P<0.01). Compared with model group, serum levels of BUN and SCr of Chinese yam polysaccharide group decreased (P<0.01), and HIF-1α mRNA and protein expression, VEGF mRNA expression in renal tissue increased (P<0.01). Conclusion Chinese yam polysaccharide has obvious protective effect on renal ischemia reperfusion injury, which may be related with up-regulation of HIF-1αexpression and induction of VEGF expression.

Objective To discuss the mechanism of Liuwei Dihuang Decoction against renal interstitial fibrosis. Methods The rat models of renal interstitial fibrosis were induced by 5/6 nephrectomy, and were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group, Liuwei Dihuang Decoction group and enalapril group. Liuwei Dihuang Decoction group was given 6.25 g/(kg?d) of Liuwei Dihuang Decoction for gavage, enalapril group was given 10 mg/(kg?d) enalapril for gavage, sham-operation group and model group were given 10 mL/(kg?d) of distilled water for gavage, 1 time per day for 12 weeks. Expressions of HIF-1α, CollI, and CollIII in kidney tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the sham-operation group, the expressions of HIF-1α, CollI, and CollIII of renal tissue in the model group significantly increased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, Liuwei Dihuang Decoction group and enalapril group can inhibit the expressions of HIF-1α, CollI, and CollIII (P<0.05), and Liuwei Dihuang Decoction group was better than enalapril group (P<0.05). Conclusion The mechanism of Liuwei Dihuang Decoction against renal interstitial fibrosis may improve the renal tissue of chronic hypoxia to play the role of preventing renal interstitial fibrosis by decreasing the expressions of HIF-1α, CollI, and CollIII.

Objective To explore the pulsed wave Doppler (PWD) manifestations of acute experimental incomplete testicular torsion. Methods Eight healthy dogs were surgically modeled to obtain unilateral acute testis torsion from 180° to 630°, respectively. The peak systole velocity (PSV) and resistance index (RI) of intratesticular artery, capsular artery and arteria spermatica interna were measured with PWD before torsion, 2 h, 4 h and 6 h after torsion. Testes were examined pathologically after the experiment. Results PSV and RI of capsular artery and intratesticular artery decreased gradually with the extension of torsional time (P<0.05). PSV and RI of superior, torsional and inferior segments of arteria spermatica interna varied greatly and showed no strong regularity (P>0.05) . The pathological results of testes showed no distinct changes or just mild interstitial hyperemia and edema. Conclusion The decrease of PSV and RI of capsular artery and intratesticular artery, especially RI have referential value in the judgement of acute experimental incomplete testicular torsion, whereas changes of PSV and RI of superior, torsional and inferior segments of arteria spermatica interna are not reliable.
