Objective To observe the ultrastructure changes on von Ebner's gland of type 2 diabetes rats. Methods Eighteen Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group and experiment group.The diabetes rats model were induced by intraperitoneal injection streptozotocin(STZ) after high-fat food.The von Ebner's gland ultrastructure was observed under transmission electron microscope(TEM) after 8 weeks. Results Compared with the control group,in diabetes rats acinar cell nucleus appeared nucleolemma introcession and karyopycnosis;mitochondria exhibited vacuole degeneration and crista breaking;rough endoplasmic reticula expanded and showed degranulation.Conclusion A sereies of pathologic changes in von Ebner's gland of diabetes rats can be induced by diabetes,which provides morphological evidences for further investigation on the mechanism of diabetes complication.

BACKGROUND: Up to now the pathogenesy of nonalcoholic fatty liver(NAFL) is unclear. Uncoupling protein (UCP) of mitochondrial membrane can make oxidative phosphorylation uncoupling in mitochondrium, and then result in decreasing the efficiency of ATP synthesis by mitochondrium and participate the progression of fatty liver by changing energy metabolism.OBJECTIVE: To observe the expressive rule of UCP-2 in NAFL rat models at different time phases.DESIGN: Randomized control animal trial.SETTING: Department of Gastroenterology, Research Institute of Surgery,Daping Hospital, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was performed at National Key Laboratory,Research Institute of Surgery, Daping Hospital, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA from November 2004 to December 2005. A total of 64 clean-grade Wistar adult male rats were selected. After being fed with common feed for 1 week, the rats were randomly assigned into model group and normal control group with 32 rats in each group. In each group there were 4 time points: feeding for 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks, 8 ones at each time point.METHODS: The rats in model group received high fat diet (88% basic feed, 10% pork fat and 2% cholesterol) for 12 weeks. Those in normal control group received common feed in different cages (6 rats in each cage).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Blood was collected from anesthetic rats of the two groups at corresponding time point. Animals were killed,and then liver was extracted rapidly. ①Change of expression of UCP-2in liver was determined with immunohistochemical method and Western blot technique. ②Activity of triacylglycerol, free fatty acid (FFA) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) in serum was measured with biochemical method. ③Content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissues was measured.RESULTS: Totally 64 rats were involved in the result analysis. ①Biochemical indicators in serum: Levels of triacylglycerol, FFA and ALT in serum were significantly higher in the model group than in the normal control group at weeks 4, 8 and 12, especially at weeks 8 and 12 (P < 0.01). ②The expression of UCP-2 enhanced gradually with the exacerbation of fatt yliver in the model group, while it was negative in the normal control group.③Content of MDA in liver tissues: It was significantly higher in the model group than in the normal control group at weeks 4, 8 and 12, especially at weeks 8 and 12 [(4.07±0.15), (4.93±0.14), (5.20±0.20) μmol/g; (3.14±0.20), (3.12±0.18), (3.13±0.16) μmol/g,P < 0.01].CONCLUSION: With the formation and aggravation of nonalcoholic fatty liver, levels of triacylglycerol, FFA and ALT in serum and content of MDA in liver tissues increase, and the expression of UCP-2 also increase. It is indicated that high fat diet can induce expression of hepatocyte UCP-2,decrease of ATP progression in cells and accelerate the formation and development of fatty liver.

Objective To study the relation between chronic stressful, the neural changes in prefrontal cortex and depression. Methods Adapt chronic unpredictable stress with separate model to make depression model rats. After 22 days all the rats were killed and use immunohistochemistry method and computer image analysis to detect BDNF. To analysis the date with SPSS11.5 software. Results After 21 days stress, body weight ( t =2.915, P < 0.05), ambulation ( t = 6. 245, P < 0. 01 ), rearing( t = 2.693, P < 0. 05 ) and grooming ( t = 2. 685, P<0.05) decreased and stopping time in center( t=2. 388, P<0. 05) ,defecation( t =3. 846, P<0. 01 ) increased in experimental group. BDNF expressed obviously in control group and the prefrontal cortex expressed highly than that of the experimental group. BDNF expressions of experimental group were lower than that in control group ( P< 0.01 ) especially in right prefrontal cortex. Conclusion There was no difference of BDNF distribution in prefrontal cortex between both groups ,but after 21 days stress ,the BDNF levels of experimental rats obviously descent,especially in right prefrontal cortex.

AIM: We used an animal model of chronic hypoxia to mimic right ventricular hypertrophy and try to study the potential mechanism of myocardium apoptosis of right heart in rat under chronic hypoxia.METHODS: Rat hypoxia models were established by exposing the rats to normobaric chronic hypoxia(oxygen levels were maintained at 9.5%-10.5%).Sixty rats were separated into two groups: one exposed to hypoxia and the other serving as control.Ten rats,randomly selected from each group were killed at 14,21,28 d after hypoxia.The apoptosis was determined.The changes of RV weight to left ventricle and interventricular septum weight ratio[RV/(LV+S)],the RV weight to body weight ratio(RV/BW) were also observed.The ?-MHC,bcl-2 and bad mRNA levels in right ventricle were detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR assays and expression of ?-MHC,Bcl-2 and Bad protein levels were detected by Western blotting.RESULTS: The RV/(LV+S),RV/BW and apoptosis index in chronic hypoxia group were higher than those in normal control group(P0.05).Finally,a decreased bcl-2/bad ratio in chronic hypoxia group was found compared with control group(P

Objective To observe the effect of treating acute spinal cord injury in rats by transplantation of autologous activated Schwann cells(AASCs). Methods Unilateral saphenous nerves were ligated directly, free it and culture Schwann cells 1 week later using the tissue clot method. Nerve growth factor(NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) in medium were detected in different periods. 90 female Wistar rats[(200?30) g] were randomly assigned to 3 different study groups as follows: control group A(n=30): 20% DMEM injection; research group B(n=30): autologous Schwann cells(ASCs) transplantation; research group C (n=30): AASCs transplantation. The cells were purified before transplantion to the injuried T10 spinal cord site of rats (New York University type weight drop apparatus, NYU). The recoveries of the lower extremity were observed using Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan(BBB) locomotor scoring system and somatosensory evoked potential and motor evoked potentials(SEP & MEP). And then observe the coticospinal tract(CST) using the biotinylated dextran amine(BDA) tracing. Results BBB score was higher in research group than the control group 4 weeks after injury, the statistical difference was significant(P

Objective: To study influencing factors for aspirin resistance in women with ischemic stroke.Methods: A total of 150 women with ischemic stroke, who visited to our hospital from Jun 2013 to Jun 2015, were selected.According to presence of aspirin resistance, they were divided into aspirin resistance group (n=61) and aspirin sensitive group (n=89).All patients received aspirin enteric-coated tablets on morning, then arachidonic acid pathway platelet aggregation inhibition rate and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level were measured in two groups on 10 h after administration.According to HbA1c level, patients were divided into normal blood glucose group (n=83) and elevated blood glucose group (n=67), then aspirin resistance rate was compared between two groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze influencing factors for aspirin resistance.Results: Compared with aspirin sensitive group, there was significant rise in body weight[(63.5±7.9) kg vs.(66.9±10.2) kg]in aspirin resistance group, P=0.041.Compared with normal blood glucose group, there was very significant rise in aspirin resistance rate (14.46% vs.73.13%) in elevated blood glucose group, P=0.008.Multi-factor Logistic regression analysis indicated that body mass index (BMI) and blood glucose level were independent risk factors for aspirin resistance (OR=4.012, 3.012, P=0.016, 0.018).Conclusion: Incidence rate of aspirin resistance is high in women with ischemic stroke.Blood glucose control and body weight status may affect incidence of aspirin resistance.
