OBJECTIVETo study the protective effect of puerarin on MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells by chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA).

METHODThe Parkinson's disease cell model was established by injuring SH-SY5Y cells with 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP+. The CCK-8 staining was adopted to detect the effect the puerarin of different concentrations on the survival rate of MPP(+)-induced SH-SYSY cells. The autophagosome formation was observed under transmission electron microscope. The AO staining showed the changes in the lysosome activity. RT-PCR was used to detect the changes in Lamp2a and Hsc70 mRNA expressions. The western blotting was adopted to test the expressions of Lamp2a, Hsc70 and alpha-synuclein protein in cells.

RESULTWithin the concentration range of 12. 5-50.0 micromol x L(-1), the pretreatment with puerain for 30 minutes could protect the injury of MPP+ in SH-SY5Y cells, and showed a certain dose-effect relationship. The AO staining and electron microscope showed the effect of puerain within the concentration range of 12.5-50.0 micromol x L(-1) on 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP(+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells; autophagosomes emerged in cells, and increased along with the rise in the puerarin dose. The results of the flow cytometry revealed that 50.0 micromol x L(-1) of puerarin could protect against the increase of the ROS level in 1 mmol x L(-1) MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells and prevent the oxidative injury. The results of RT-PCR and western blotting indicated that puerain within the concentration range of 12.5-50.0 micromol x L(-1) alleviated the MPP(+)-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury, and inhibited the accumulation of alpha-synuclein proteins in MPP(+) -induced SH-SY5Y cells by up-regulating Hsc70, Lamp2a mRNA and protein level.

CONCLUSIONPuerarin could protect against the MPP(+) -induced cell injury, whose protective mechanism may be related to the chaperone-mediated autophagy pathway of interventional molecules.

Objective To improve the utilization ratio of operating room in Affiliated Hospital of Central South Uni-versity Xiangya Medical School by providing more comprehensive reference data for the design of surgical time pre-diction and dispatch system. Methods A questionnaire was designed according to the review of literature and consul-tation of experts for investigating the surgical time influencing factors. The surgical time influencing factors were ana-lyzed by stratified sampling. Results The surgeons-related factor was the highest influencing factor while the pa-tients themselves-related factor was the lowest influencing factor in the 2-dimensional factors. The selected 38 1-dimensional factors could affect the operating time with their mean influencing value>2 . 45 . The recognition of sur-gical time influencing factors was different in different operating rooms. Conclusion There are a variety of surgical time influencing factors. However, the surgeons-related factor is the highest influencing factor. The cognition of anesthesia-related factors and surgeons-related factors differs in different operating rooms.
