OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of Kanli Granule (KG) on myocardial mechanics in pressure overload induced diastolic heart failure (DHF) rats.

METHODSTotally 60 male Wistar rats were divided into the sham-operation group, the model group, the KG group, and the Valsartan group according to random digit table, 15 in each group. The pressure overload induced DHF model was established in all groups except the sham-operation group using abdominal aortic constriction surgery. Totally 7 rats died after modeling (with the mortality of 10. 67%) , and the rest 53 finished the following test. Rats in the KG group were administered with KG extract (calculated as 6. 75 g crude drug/kg) by gastrogavage. Rats in the Valsartan group were administered with Valsartan (7.2 µg/g) by gastrogavage. Equal volume of double distilled water was administered to rats in the model group and the sham-operation group by gastrogavage. All rats were intervened for 32 weeks. The response of isolated heart papillary muscle tonus to isoprenaline (ISO) and adenylate cyclase (Forskolin) was respectively observed. The enhancement phenomenon after resting development force (DF) of isolated heart papillary muscle tonus, and changes of DF in different Ca²⁺ concentrations were observed.

RESULTS(1) In the ISO response test: Compared with the sham-operation group, the amplifications of DF, ±df/dt, -df/dt were obviously elevated in the model group (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the amplifications of DF and ±df/dt were obviously lowered in the KG group (P < 0.01), and the amplification of ±df/dt was also reduced in the Valsartan group (P < 0.01). (2) In the Forskolin response test: Compared with the sham-operation group, the amplifications of DF and ±df/dt obviously increased in the model group (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the amplifications of DF and ±df/dt were obviously reduced in the KG group (P < 0.01), and the amplification of DF was also reduced in the Valsartan group (P < 0.05). (3) In post-resting DF enhancement test: Compared with the sham-operation group, the amplification of DF showed gradually decreasing tendency along with prolonged resting time in the model group, and they were obviously lowered at all time points (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the amplification of DF was gradually increasing along with prolonged resting time in the KG group. The amplification of DF at post-resting 240 s was obviously larger in the KG group than in the model group (P < 0.05). The amplification of post-resting DF still showed gradually decreasing tendency along with prolonged resting time in the Valsartan group, with increased amplifications of DF at post-resting 60 s and 120 s (P < 0. 05) (4) The amplifications of DF in different Ca²⁺ concentrations: Compared with the sham-operation group, the amplifications of DF were significantly elevated in different Ca²⁺ concentrations (1.75, 3.5, 7.0 mmol/L ) (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, there was no statistical difference in amplification of DF in different Ca²⁺ concentrations in the KG group (P > 0.05). The amplifications of DF in different Ca²⁺ concentrations were significantly reduced in the Valsartan group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSThe ISO response and the Forskolin response were enhanced in isolated heart papillary muscle tonus of pressure overload induced DHF rats; enhanced post-resting DF was reduced; DF in different supra-physiologic levels of Ca²⁺ was still enhanced. KG could significantly improve excessive enhancement of pressure overload induced DHF rats in ISO response and Forskolin response, and improve enhancement of post-resting myocardium.

In this paper, the new carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (F-CNTs/GCE) was prepared to establish a new method for studying the molecular interaction mechanism between baicalin metal complexes (BMC) and bovine serum album (BSA), and the principle of this method was discussed deeply. Under the physiological condition, the thermodynamics and kinetics properties of interaction between BMC and BSA were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) to inference their molecular effective mechanism. The results show that the presence of F-CNTs can accelerate the electron transfer, and better response signal was showed in the BMC/BMC-BSA system. The detection of interaction of BMC-BSA used new method show that BMC-BSA generates stable thermodynamically non-covalent compounds, and the obtained average binding sites of BMC-BSA were 1.7; the number of electron transfer in BMC/BMC-BSA reaction process was 2, and non electroactive supramolecular compounds of BMC-BSA were generated by this interacting reaction. The relevant research work provides a new way to study the molecular mechanism for the interaction of drugs with protein, and with a certain reference value for discussion on the non covalent interactions.

Objective To evaluate the protective effectiveness of intranasal immunizations with recombinated-pneumococcal autolysin(Re-LytA), which protects mice against local and systemic Streptococ- cus pneumoniae(Sp) infection. Methods Testing group (group A): CpG as an adjuvant, the mice were intranasally immunized with purified Re-LytA, obtained by affinity chromatograph. The negative control group(group B) were intranasally immunized with sterile saline. And the positive control group (group C) were received 23-valent polysaccharide commercial vaccine through intramuscular injection. All the samples were collected 2 weeks post the last immunization. The levels of antibody was determined by ELISA. Then the mice were challenged intraperitoneally and intranasally with Sp, respectively. The infection and coloniza- tion was followed by monitoring colony-forming units of Sp in the blood, homogenized lung, and nasopharyn- geal lavage fluid 4 days post intranasal immunization. The mice were observed daily to note the livability of each group. Results The level of the LytA antibody (IgG, IgA, slgA) in group A were higher than that in group B and C (P < 0.05). Neither the LytA nor polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group B. Polysaccharide antibody could be detected in group C. After challenged intraperitoneally there was no signifi- cant difference in survival rates between group A and group C (P > 0.05), which was significant higher than that in group B (P <0.05). After challenged intranasally, compared with the group A, the geometric mean colony-forming units washed from the nasopharyngeal lavage fluid of the group B and group C were signifi- cantly higher (P <0.05). Conclusion lntranasal immunizations with Re-LytA can protect mice against lo- cal and systemic pneumococcal infection, and the protective immunity may be related to sIgA.

By the bioactivity technology of Low-Temperature Preparation of Anatase and Rutile Layers on porous Titanium Substrates, CPTi(Commercially pure titanium Phi4.0 mm x 20 mm) was processed and treated as experiment specimens while CPTi was treated as control specimens. Experiment specimens and control specimens were implanted into the holes (4.0 mm in diameter) in rabbit's right and left tibias respectively. After implantation for predetermined periods of 4,8,12, 16 weeks, the specimens were taken out with bone tissues, and were examined by a press-out tester to evaluate the shearing force between the implant and the bone tissue. It is found that the shearing force between the experiment specimen and the bone is more significantly higher than that between the control specimen and the bone, and the bonding time is shorter, the stabilization time is faster. This study has laid down a good foundation for the titanium metal's innovative applications in clinical orthopaedics.
