Objective To determine the effect of ghrelin on protecting the human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) from injury by angiotesin Ⅱ(AngⅡ) in vitro. Methods (1)HUVEC was incubated for 24 h with AngⅡ whose final concentration in the medium varied from 10-9 to 10-6mol/L or pretreated with 10-9to 10-6mol/L ghrelin for 2 h before incubation for 24 h with AngⅡwhose final concentration in the medium was 10-6mol/L. HUVECs were harvested to measure the cell vitality and cell apoptosis. The cell vitality was determined by MTT and cell apoptosis rates were measured by Annexin V-FITC apoptosis detection kit. (2)HUVECs were incubated for 3,6,12,or 24 h with 10-9,10-8,10-7,or 10-6mol/L AngⅡ, respectively. Before HUVECs were incubated with 10-6 mol/L AngⅡfor 24 h, ghrelin (10-9,10-8,10-7, and 10-6 mol/L) was used to pretreat the cells for 2 h. Growth hormone secregogue receptor 1a blocker [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 was added to the cells which were incubated for 24 h with 10-6mol/L AngⅡ and pretreated with 10-6 mol/L ghrelin for 2 h. Cell reactive oxygen species were measured by dichlorofluorescin (DCF) fluorescence probe method. (3)HUVECs were incubated for 24 h with 10-9,10-8,10-7, or 10-6mol/L AngⅡ and ghrelin, respectively,and then were incubated with 10-6mol/L of AngⅡ for 3,6,12,or 24 h. Furthermore,HUVECs were pretreated with 10-9,10-8,10-7, or 10-6mol/L ghrelin for 30 min,1 h,or 2 h, and then were incubated with the inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase /extracellular regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK1/2),PD98059, the inhibitor of phosphoinositide-3-kinase/serine threonine kinase( PI3K/Akt)wortmannin, and [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 for 24 h. NO production was compared among groups. HUVECs were pretreated with ghrelin,PD98059, wortmannin, and [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 for 2 h and co-cultured with 10-6mol/L AngⅡfor 24 h,or pretreated with ghrelin plus PD98059, wortmannin, and [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 before incubation with AngⅡfor 24 h. NO was measured in the endothelial cell supernatants by Griess method. (4)HUVECs were cultivated with blank or AngⅡwith or without pretreatment with ghrelin or both ghrelin and wortmannin. The protein expression of eNOS and phospho-protein expression of Akt were measured by Western blot analysis. Results AngⅡinjuried the endothelial cell vitality,increased the cell apoptosis rates in HUVECs, and decreased NO production in HUVEC supernatants,whereas ghrelin protected HUVECs from AngⅡ injury. Ghrelin decreased the reactive oxygen species in HUVECs induced by AngⅡ. The effect could be attenuated by [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 pretreatment; PD98059 alleviated AngⅡ inhibition of NO production in HUVEC supernatants. Wortmannin and [D-Lys3]GHRP-6 could abolish protection of ghrelin from reducing NO production in HUVEC supernatants. AngⅡreduced the expression of eNOS,but ghrelin increased eNOS expression. Wortmannin could cancel this effect of ghrelin. Ghrelin increased p-Akt expression and reached the peak in 10 and 20 min. Conclusion Ghrelin may protect HUVECs from AngⅡinduced injury, which is related to decreasing oxidative stress, increasing the protein expression of eNOS, and activating PI3K/Akt signal pathway through GHSR1a receptor.

Objective To investigate the changes of airway resistance before and after Bronchial Diulation Test in patients with senile asthma and the effect of age on the degree of airway resistance. Methods A total of 29 (> 60 years)senile asthma patients and 21 younger(< 60 y)patients were enrolled in the study. The status of their pulmonary function was determined by MEFV(Maximum expiratory flow?volume curve)and an IOS(impulse oscillometry) system before and after Bronchial Diulation Test,The spirometric indexes such as forced vital capacity,total respiratory impedance,respiratory resistance and respiratory system reactance were collected and analyzed. Results Significant decreases of indexs were found after Bronchial Diulation Test compared with those before Bronchial Diulation Test in the study group(P<0.05,respectively). No significant difference in improvement of indexs was found between the group of patients with senile asthma(age > 60 years)and the group of healthy control(age < 60 years ). Each index of the airway resistance has a very good correlation with FEV1%,with the highest degree of relation is X5%. Conclusion The airway resistance of senile asthmatic patients was significantly improved after diuslation test and these indexes IOS would be valuable in evaluating the changes of airway resistance of senile asthma.

AIM: To assess the impact of weaver gene on neuronal development,protein expression and vitality. METHODS: DNA encoding the wild-type and mutant ion channel was introduced into immortalized tyrosine hydroxylase-positive CNS-derived neurons named CAD(Cath.a-differentiated,a variant of Cath.a. Cath.a was established by targeted oncogenesis in transgenic mice) cells. DNA clone, immunostaining and Western blotting were used. Three different concentrations (0 25 mg/L, 0 5 mg/L, or 1 0 mg/L) of Girk2 and wv Girk2 expression plasmids were transfected into the CAD cells. The number of transfected cycling cells, protein synthesis and neurites growth were observed between two groups. RESULTS: The number of transfected cycling CAD cells with high concentration of wv Girk2 reduced to about 60%, compared to Girk2-transfected cells. Low concentration of wv Girk2 did not cause cell death but reduced the protein production of transfected genes. Neurite growth was also affected by wv Girk2. MK-801 and Kir2.3 altered the effect of wv Girk2. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that wv Girk2 functions as a blocker in weaver animals, which blockes the wv Girk2 channel to rescue the cells from death. Our data also suggest that the presence of channels and the level of wv Girk2 may have a significant impact on the fate of cells containing wv Girk2.
