Aim To study the effects of amitriptyline(Ami)on focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods An animal model of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced by the middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO) by reversibly inserting a nylon thread method.The rats were decapitated after ischemia for 1 hour and reperfusion for 2 hours.The infarct volumes were determined using a 2,3,5-tri-phenyl tetrazolium chloride(TTC) staining and assessed by image analysis system.The neurologic deficit status were evaluated on 0~5 grade scale.The levels of dopamine(DA),norepinephrine(NE),serotonin(5-HT) and its metabolic product~hydroxyindole acetic acid(5-HIAA) in cortex and striatum were measured by fluoro-spectrophotometry.Results Ami treatment exhibited a remarkable reduction in infarct volume and neurologic deficit scores.The monoamines content of cortex and striatum had a significant increase compared with ischemia-reperfusion group.Conclusion Amitriptyline has protective effect on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.The mechanism might be related to reducing the release of NE,DA and 5-HT during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,attenuating or inhibiting of the neurotoxic effects of monoamine neurotransmitters.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective potentials of recombinant human erythropoietin ( rhEPO) in premature rats with white matter damage. Methods Pregnant rats ( gestational age 15 days) were injected lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (300 μg/kg) intraperitoneally to make cerebral white matter lesions. Another 10 cases of pregnant rats were injected saline (1 mL/kg) intraperitoneally as controls. All preterm rats were born by caesarean sec-tion on embryonic day 21. According to the different processing method,the preterm rats were randomly divided into LPS+rhEPO group (18 cases),LPS+ normal saline (NS) group (18 cases),NS+rhEPO group (18 cases) and NS+NS group (18 cases) ,and they were injected rhEPO (5 000 IU/kg) or 9 g/L saline 1 mL/kg intraperitoneally imme-diately after birth,respectively. The cerebral white matter injury was evaluated with HE staining,and levels of CD68 ,gli-al fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP),myelin basic protein (MBP) were detected by immunofluorescence method 3 and 7 days after birth. Assessment of nerve behavior was done 2 weeks after birth. Results HE staining showed that the white matter lesions were less in LPS+rhEPO group than those in LPS+NS group 3 and 7 days after birth,while NS+rhEPO group and NS+NS group had no cerebral white matter lesions. The expressions of CD68 in LPS+rhEPO group,NS+rhEPO group,NS+NS group significantly decreased compared with LPS+NS group (F=7. 456,P<0. 01) 3 days after birth. The expressions of GFAP in LPS+rhEPO group,NS+rhEPO group,NS+NS group were lower than those in LPS+NS group (F=5. 121,P< 0. 01) 7 days after birth. Meanwhile,the expressions of MBP were not statistically different from the other groups 3 and 7 days after birth (F=2. 628,1. 425,all P>0. 05). No significant differences were found between LPS+rhEPO group and the other groups in evaluation of long-term neural development(all P>0. 05). The val-ues of F by the open field test,suspension test,slope hill test,and resistance to capture test were 2. 09,0. 53,0. 11,0. 37, respectively. Conclusions A single large dose (5 000 IU/kg) rhEPO has neuroprotective effect on the cerebral white matter lesions in the premature rats by inhibiting microglia and astrocyte activation in a short time. The long-term effort remains unknown.

AIM: To prepare gfp-bcl-X L-contained recombinant adenovirus(rAd-gfp-bcl-X L).METHODS: Bcl-X L gene was amplified from pEGFP-C 3-bcl-X L, subcloned into shuttle plasmid and formed transfer plasmid of pAdTrack-CMV-bcl-X L. Then pAdTrack-CMV-bcl-X L was linealinzed with PmeI and co-transformed into BJ5183 bacteria with adenovirus genomic plasmid of pAdEasy-1. The identified recombinant adenovirus plasmid was digested with PacI and transfected into 293 cells to package recombinant adenovirus particles. The target gene was detected by PCR.RESULTS: There were about 35% positive recombinant bacterial clones after the co-transformation of pAdTrack-CMV-bcl-X L and pAdEasy-1 into BJ5183. Recombinant adenovirus particle were produced and further amplified after the transfection of pAdEasy-1-gfp-bcl-X L into 293 cells. PCR test indicated that the recombinant Ad contained bcl-X L gene. The titer of the purified rAd-gfp-bcl-X L was 6 5?10 12 PFU/L. CONCLUSIONS: The homologous recombination in bacteria is a convenient and high efficient method to prepare rAd-gfp-bcl-X L. This affords a good gene transfer vector for the gene therapy in human's diseases.

Objective To explore the effects of deoxynivalenol (DON) on apoptosis of human gastric carcinoma cell line SNU in vitro. Methods SNU cells were treated with DON at different concentrations (50, 100, 1000, 2000 μg/L) for 12 hours, and then cells were harvested for cell apoptosis by flow cytometric (FCM) DNA analysis and the expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 at protein level with FCM and Western blotting. Results FCM results showed that the apoptosis rates of SNU cells in DON treatment groups were all higher than that in control, especially in DON 1000 μg/L and 2000 μg/L groups (P<0.05). In the concentration range from 50 to 2000 μg/L, a significant concentration-depended response correlation could be found between apoptosis rate and DON concentration (r =0.940, P <0.01). FCM and Western blotting showed Bax and Caspase-3 expression in often SNU cells DON treatment for 12 hours were up-regulated while that of Bcl-2 was down-regulated. Conclusion DON can induce apoptosis of SNU cells in vitro in dose-dependent manner, and possible mechanisms of apoptosis induction effects may be up-regulation of the expression of Bax and down-regulation of that of Bcl-2 and activation of the key enzyme of apoptosis Caspase-3.

Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane on ca2+ transsarcolemmal influx and ca2+ release function of endoplasmic reticulum in isolated outer hair cells (OHCs) of guinea pigs and the possible mechanism by which sevofhlrane acts on cochleas.Methods The experiment was performed in 2 parts.In experiment I:twelve adult guinea pigs(8 male,4 female)weighing 180-230 g were used.OHCs were mechanically sparated after enzymatic incubation.Thirty OHCs with favorable activity were divided into 3 groups (n=10 each):group I control(C);group Ⅱ low concentration sevoflurane (1.7%,group S1) and group Ⅲ high concentration sevoflurane(3.4%,group S2).The OHCs were stained with 6 umol/L Fluo-3AM in estefified form for 40 min.Group S1 and S2 were pretreated with 1.7% and 3.4% sevoflugsne respectively for 20 min.KCI 40 mmol/L was then added.The intracellular ionized Ca2+ concentration ([C2+]I) was determined byintracelhlar Ca2+ fluorescent intensity using laser scanning confocal microscope.The protocol of the experimentⅡ was the same as the experimentI.The only difference was that caffeine 20 mmol/L was added instead of KCI 40 mmol/L.Results In experiment I:there was no significant difference in baseline[ca2+]I and[ca2+]I after being exposed to sevoflurane among the 3 groups.[Ca2+]I was significanfly increased after addition of KCI as compared with the baseline[Ca2+]I and was significantly lower in group Sl and S2 than in group C and was the lowest in group S2.In experimentⅡ:the[ca2+]I was significantly increased after addition of caffeine but there was no significant difference in[Ca2+]I among the 3 groups.Conclusion Sevoflurane can inhibit voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel opening in a concentration-dependent manner but can not affect ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ release function of endoplasmic reticuhm in isolated outer hair cells of guinea pigs.

Objective To study the change rules with age in morphologic properties of common carotid artery,and to discuss its aging process after kidney transplantation.Methods Thirty-one patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) supported by hemodialysis,31 kidney transplant recipients (KTR) and 84 control subjects were offered an ultrasound of carotid artery.The carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) and common carotid artery diameter (CCAD) of right carotid arteries were measured by ultrasonic frequency tracking.The tends for slope of CIMT and CCAD with age were analyzed by linear regression analysis.Results Compared with KTR group and control group,ESRD group had significantly thicker CIMT and wider CCAD,but there was no significant difference between KTR group and control group.The linear regression showed the development of CIMT were positively associated with age (P＜0.05).Compared with KTR group and ESRD group respectively,the slope of CIMT with age (unstandardized coefficients b) in control group was greater (Z=1.417,P =0.006;Z =2.223,P＜0.001).There was no significant difference between KTR group and ESRD group (Z =1.038,P =0.723).The development of CCAD were also positively associated with age (P＜0.05).Compared with control group,the slope of CCAD with age in ESRD group was less (Z =1.677,P =0.002).Conclusions After successful kidney transplantation,some morphologic properties of carotid artery are improved and resume the normal aging process.
