Objective To investigate the reproducibility and influencing factors of relative quantification of phosphorus metabolites with two-dimensional chemical shift imaging (2D CSI) in rabbit liver. Methods Using 2D CSI MRS, 500 ml phosphate (NaH2PO4) solution phantom with 0. 05 mol/E concentration and one healthy rabbit were scanned 30 times respectively in one day and rescanned 30 times in the next day, and the stability of MR scanner and reproducibility of within-run and between-days in the same individual were analyzed. Each of thirty rabbits was scanned and rescanned one time respectively in different days, and the reproducibility of between-days in one group was analyzed. The data were statistically analyzed with t tests. Results (1) Phosphate solution phantom had a good reproducibility of within-run with the coefficient variation (CV) of 4. 92% and 5. 12% respectively in different two days. No significant change of phosphorus metabolites was detected in between-days, which was 16. 68 ± 0. 82 and 16. 56 ± 0. 85 respectively(t = 0. 665, P > 0. 05 ). (2) The CV of metabolites in one healthy rabbit ranged from 8. 04% to 34. 13%. Among the metabolites, β-ATP had the best reproducibility with the CV less than 10%. PME was 0. 88 ± 0. 28 and 0. 88 ± 0. 30, PDE was 4. 35 ± 0. 66 and 4. 35 ± 0, 66, Pi was 0. 95 ± 0.30 and 0.97±0.28, α-ATP was 5.58±0.60 and 5.61±0.61, β-ATP was 2.70±0.22 and 2.71± 0. 22, γ-ATP was 2. 20±0. 63 and 2. 18±0.44 respectively, no significant changes of metabolites were detected in between-days( P >0. 05 ). (3) The CV of metabolites in 30 healthy rabbits ranged from 8.48% to 36. 21%. Among the metabelites, β-ATP had the best reproducibility with CV less than 10%. PME was 0. 84 ± 0. 30 and 0. 79 ± 0. 28, PDE was 4. 29 ± 0.72 and 3.94 ± 0. 84, Pi was 0. 91 ± 0. 28 and 0. 92 ± 0. 31, α-ATP was 5.65±0. 66 and 5. 36±0. 60, β-ATP was 2. 71±0. 23 and 2. 66±0. 25, γ-ATP was 2. 07±0. 29 and 1.99±0. 37 respectively, no significant changes of metabolites were detected in between-days (P > 0. 05). Conclusions The relative quantification of hepatic β-ATP may be most reliable among the phosphorus metabolites for rabbit liver because of its good reproducibility and small CV. The quantification of phosphorus metabolites by 31p MRS with 2D CSI in rabbit liver is affected by many factors.

A novel method was proposed for the quantification of nitrite ion in aqueous samples by the combination of an advanced quantitative fluorescence model with ratiometric fluorescence indicator 2 , 3-diaminonaphthalene . The proposed method was tentatively applied to direct quantitative determination of nitrite ion in turbid environmental water samples containing both scatterers and absorbers; and its performance was thoroughly investigated and evaluated. Experimental results showed that the proposed method could realize accurate quantitative determination of nitrite ion in environmental water samples with recovery rates in the range of 90. 8%-103. 0%, which were comparable to the corresponding values of HPLC-DAD experiments. The limit of detection and limit of quantification of the proposed method were estimated to be 1 . 9 and 5. 8 nmo/L, respectively.

Blood glucose level responses to different diets were examined in 12 healthy man. The test breakfasts consist of different proportion of protein and carbohydrate. Three kinds of test breakfast were fed respectively for each person. Blood glucose were measured before and 1, 2 and 4 hr after breakfast. The results indicated that high-CHO diet maintained higher level of blood glucose than other diets in 1-2 hr after breakfast. However the blood glucose level began dropping from 2 hr and dropped below fasting level at 4 hr after breakfast. The high-protein diet resulted in decreasing of blood glucose level in 1-2 hr after breakfast. The blood glucose level then increased continuously until 4 hr after breakfast.The results in this experiment showed that adjustment of the proportion of carbohydrate and protein in diets could maintain the blood glucose to a higher and stable level.

AIM:To investigate the protective effect of puerarin on testis in diabetic rats.METHODS:The male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal control group,diabetic group,high dose puerarin(160 mg/kg),middle dose puerarin(120 mg/kg),low dose puerarin(80 mg/kg)treatment groups and aminoguanidine(100 mg/kg)treatment group.Corresponding drugs were intraperitoneal injected once a day.The animals in normal control group and diabetic group were given equal propylene glycol.12 weeks later,the rats were sacrificed and their testes were collected.Testicular structure was observed under transmission electronic microscope(TEM).The contents of nitric oxide(NO),malondialdehyde(MDA)and the activity of nitric oxide synthase(NOS),inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),superoxide dismutase(SOD),Ca2+-ATPase and Na+-K+-ATPase in testis homogenate were detected biochemically.The levels of endothelin-1(ET-1)and calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP)were also measured by radioimmunoassay.In addition,the mRNA expressions of eNOS,iNOS,CGRP,ET-1 and AR in testis tissues were determined by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).RESULTS:The pathologic changes such as cytoplasmic inclusion of sertoli cell and obvious vacuoles between sertoli cells and basal membrane of the contorted seminiferous tubules were observed under TEM in diabetic group.The contents of NO and CGRP,the activities of SOD,Ca2+-ATPase,Na+-K+-ATPase as well as the mRNA expressions of eNOS and CGRP decreased significantly(P

PurposeTo investigate the effect of gasoline on the skin barrier function.MethodsA rat skin model in vitro was used in this study. The amount of 3H-water penetrated throught the skin was applied as the index of evaluating the barrier function.ResultsThe results showed that the amount of 3H-water was not obviously increased in those exposed to gasoline for 0.5,1 and 2 h(P > 0.05), but the 3H-water penetration amount through the skin increased linearly with the time. In the group exposed to gasoline 4 h, the 3H-water penetration amount through the skin was significantly higher than that in the control group (P 0.05). The skin barrier function of the group (expopsed to gasoline 4 h) was disrupted.Conclusions Gasoline may disrupt the skin barrier function. Gasoline would remove the lipids within the intercellular domains of the stratum corneum and then lead to damage the skin.
