Objective To explore the change of platelet activation before and after stent implantation in acute coronary syndrome. Methods Detection of positive expression of platelet membrane glycoprotein CD62p,CD63 and thrombin-sensitive protein (TSP) were performed using flow cytometry (FCM) in 82 patients which included 45 unstable angina pectoris (UAP) and 37 acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Another 45 angiographically normal patients served as the control. Results Expression of CD62p, CD63 and TSP after stent implantation in ACS group. On the other hand, the expression of the above factors was higher in ACS group compared with the control group. Conclusion Acute thrombogenesis induced by platelet activation is a basic pathophysiologic process in ACS. Endothelial injury and plaque rupture produced by stent implantation may be a cause of platelet activation.

Objective To investigate the relationship between tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in ischemic brain tissue and bran edema after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats.Methods Eighty four male SD rats were randomly assigned to either a cerebral ischemia reperfusion group (n =44) or a sham-operation group (n =40). A model of middle cerebral artery occlusion for 120 minutes followed by reperfusion was induced in rats using the suture method. The infarct size was determined by 2, 3, 5-triphenyi terazoloride (TTC) staining at 6 h,24 h, 3 d, and 7 d respectively after the reperfusion. Dry-wet weight method was used to measure brain water content and evaluate the extent of brain edema. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentration of TNF-α in ischemic brain tissue. Results TNF-α level in ischemic brain tissue was increased at 6 h (445.8 ±91.7 pg/ml) after the reperfusion, and reached the peak at day 3 (715.5 ±121.3 pg/ml). There were significant differences compared to the sham-operation group and other time points (all P<0.001). After that, it was decreased gradually, but it was still higher than that in the shamoperation group at day 7 (478.1 ± 145.5 pg/ml vs. 148.5 ± 101.7 pg/ml, P<0.005). The initial change of the water content in brain tissue lagged behind the increased TNF-α. It did not increase significantly until 24 h after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (P <0.001). It reached the peak at day 3 (P <0.001), and it was still higher than that in the control group at day 7 (P <0.05). The evolution of cerebral infarct volume was in accordance with the changes of TNF-α level. Conclusions TNF-α is associated with the changes of brain edema and infarct volume,and it is harmful to brain tissue.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of protective effects of 17-β estradiol on the experimental model of spinal cord injury (SCI) rats.Methods First,the primary astrocytes were cultured and identified.When the third generation astrocytes were cultured,they were induced by H202 whose concentrations were established by the method of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT).The cells were randomly divided into five groups:control group; the group of treatment with 400 μmol/L H2O2 for 24 hours; the group of treatment with 20 nmol/L estrogen for 2 hours prior to exposure to 400 μmol/L H2O2 for 24 hours; the group of treatment with 20 nmol/L estrogen for 26 hours and the group of treatment with dimethyl sulfoxide for 26 hours.The proteins which were extracted from these cells after treatments with H2O2 for 24 hours were detected by Western blotting.Results The absorbances of the astrocytes of treatments with H2O2 were reduced( q' =-11.45,P =0.001 ).But exposure to estrogen prior to exposure to H2O2 provided partial restoration of the absorbances (q' =7.025,P =0.0025 ).The absorbances of the astrocytes among different groups showed significant differences( F =69.69,P =0.0025 ).The results suggested that estrogen might increase the cell viability in astrocytes.Compared with the group of treatment cells with H2O2,treatment cells with 17-β estradiol prior to H2O2 exposure down-regulated the expressions of both phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 ( PTEN ) ( F =290.003,P =0.001 ) and caspase-3 ( F =46.158,P =0.023 ).And,17-β estradiol treatment of cells increased the levels of p-Akt ( F =49.173,P =0.033 ) and Bcl-2 ( F =115.916,P =0.001 ) when compared with the group of treatment astrocytes with H2O2.Conclusion These findings suggest that the attenuation of PTEN expression mediated by estrogen is associated with an increase in phosphorylation/activation of the Akt and the Bel-2 expressions.These results suggest that the protective effects of 17-β estradiol on the experimental model of SCI rats may depend on the estrogen protection to the astrocytes which may be mediated by decreasing the PTEN expression.

Objective To analysis the MRI features of cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), to improve the understanding of MRI manifestations of this disease. Meth?ods The clinical manifestations, neuroimaging analysis and genetic analysis were performed in the CADASIL pedigree proband and his families. Results Five of six cases were confirmed with C2182T mutation on exon 14 of the NOTCH3, of which three cases were diagnosed by MRI. Brain MRI findings included bilateral symmetric distributed confluent lesions in the subcortical and periventricular white matter in the frontal lobe, hypointensity on T1WI and hyperintensity on both T2WI and T2 FLAIR imaging in four cases. The external capsule was involved in three cases, with hyperintensity on T2WI. Subcortical lacunar lesions (SLLs) were shown in three cases. Lacunar infarction in the basal ganglia and thalamus were presented in four cases. T2WI hyperintensity at the brain stem was found in two cases. Cerebral microbleeds were re?vealed in three cases. There was no O’Sullivan sign in all the six cases. Conclusions There is characteristic change of MRI in CADASIL patients, which may play a very important role in screening these cases.

Objective:
To explore the therapeutic effect of salvianolic acid B (Sal B) on rat abdominal island flap after ischemia-reperfusion injury, and to explore the related mechanisms.
Methods:
Fifty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups and rat lower abdomen island flap models were established: ①Sham-operated group (Sham group): non-blocking blood vessels, intraperitoneal injection of equal volume of saline as Sal B group; ②Model group: blocking blood vessels for 8 h, intraperitoneal injection of the same volume of saline as Sal B group; ③salvianolic acid B group (Sal B group): blocking blood vessels for 8 h, intraperitoneal injection of 40 mg/Kg of Sal B per day. Seven days after continuous drug administration, the survival rate of the flaps in each group was evaluated, and then the animals from each group were sacrificed for the specimens which were used for the following tests: HE staining was performed to evaluate the microvessel density (MVD), and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1). The contents of superoxide dismutase SOD and malondialdehyde (MDA) in flap tissue were tested using the corresponding kit.
Results:
Seven days after flap operation, the survival rate of Sal B group flap[(65.62±13.20)%] was significantly higher than that of the model group, while HE staining showed an increase in MVD in Sal B group [(28.27±3.19)/mm2 and (15.79±6.12)/mm2, respectively]. The differences were statistically significant (
