Objective To investigate edaravane in prevention of restenosis in rat common catery arteries balloon angioplasty and the possible mechanism of this process. Methods Forty male SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: treatment group (whose intima was injured by balloon and was given edaravone 3 mg/kg by peritoneal injection, bid) and control group (whose intima was injured by ballon and was given the same volume NS as edaravone). 1, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days after angioplasty, rats were killed and the local arteries were sectioned for analysis of pathological morphology and the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) analyzed by immunohistochemistry. Results Small amounts of smooth muscle cell appeared at the intima of blood vessel 3 days after the artery injured by balloon. Consecutive intima was formed 7 days after artery injury. The intima was even or uneven thickened and the lumen of artery was significant stenosed 14 and 28 days afterwards. In the control group, the intimal area reached (0.240±0.043) mm2, the intima hyperplasy index were 0.52±0.06, stenosis ratio were 30%±9% 14 days afterwards. The intimal area were (0.420±0.063 )mm2, the intima hyperplasy index were 0.67± 0.07, stenosis ratio were 54%±9% on day 28. In the treatment group, the intimal area were (0.063± 0.025)mm2, the intima hyperplasy index were 0.24±0.07, stenosis ratio were 8%±3% after 14 days. The intimal area were (0.116±0.023) mm2, the intima hyperplasy index were 0.38±0.05, stenosis ratio were 16%±4% after 28 days. Compared with control group at the same time, the intimal area (F values were 50.488 and 81.119 respectively, P < 0.05 ), the intima hyperplasy index ( F values were 41.743 and 48.122 respectively, P<0.05) and stenosis ratio (F values were 24.221 and 81.119 respectively, P< 0.05) were decreased in treatment group. The expressions of MMP-2 raised after balloon injury. In control group, the expressions of MMP-2 were 27.16%±7.15% after 3 days, 22.59%±6.68% after 7 days, 18.85%±4.91% after 14 days. In the treatment group, it decreased to 15.57%±3.62% after 3 days, 12.91%±1.88% after 7 days. Compared with control group, the expressions of MMP-2 in treatment group were lower after 3 days and 7 days ( F = 8.359, P = 0.028 and F = 7.781, P = 0.032 ). Conclusions Edaravone can prevent restenosis in rat common catery after balloon angioplasty. The possible mechanism is that edaravone can inhibit the expressions of MMP-2 in this process.

BACKGROUND: Sinomenine, an alkaloid monomer extracted from Chinese medicinal herb sinomenium acutum,possesses potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic and immunoinhibitory pharmacological activities. Sinomenine has certain therapeutic effect on rheumatoid arthritis and has been widely applied in the clinic. Dendritic cell (DC) is the known antigen presenting cell with the strongest functions in the body.OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of different doses of sinomenine on CD80 and CD 86 expression and extracellular interleukin-12 secretion in DCs.DESIGN: A controlled repeated measuring study based on the cells.SETTTNG: Department of Pharmacology, Guangdong Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Institute of Immunology, Third Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between September 2004 and May 2005. The peripheral blood of healthy donors was supplied by the blood bank of the Southwest Hospital. RPMI1640 medium was purchased from Hyclone Company. Fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-conjugated mouse monoclonal antibodies against CD80 and CD86 and FITC-conjugated mouse IgG1 were purchased from Bioscience Company. Recombinant human interleukin-4 (rhlL-4), recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were purchased from PharMingen Company. Sinomenine was supplied by Zhengqing Pharmacy Company in Hunan. ELISA kit specific for IL-12 was purchased from Diaclone Company.METHODS: Peripheral blood was collected from healthy volunteers. 1 ×106 U/L recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) and 5×105 U/Lrecombinant human interleukin-4 (rhlL-4)were added to the peripheral blood. After 7 days, DCs were harvested. ①The DCs were counted and cultured at 2×108 L 1 in fresh medium supplemented with TNF-α and different doses of sinomenine(3, 10, 30 mg/L). After 48 hours, 2×105 cells were collected and washed twice with phosphate buffer solution (PBS). Then the expressions of CD80 and CD86 were analyzed using 20 μL FITC-conjugated mouse monoclone antibodies against CD80 or CD86.FITC-conjugated mouse IgG1 was used as control at 4 ℃ away from light for 30 minutes. After staining, cells were washed twice with PBS and fixed in 10 g/L paraformaldehyde. The samples were analyzed on a flow cytometry. ②The DCs were counted and cultured at 2 ×108 L-1 in fresh medium supplemented with TNF-α and different doses of sinomenine (3, 10, 30 mg/L). After 48 hours, the supernatants were collected and the concentration of interleukin-12 (IL-12) was determined in a sandwich ELISA using kit specific for IL-12 according to the manufacture's instruction.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Effect of different doses of sinomenine on the expressions of CD80 and CD86 on DCs. ②Effect of different doses of sinomenine on the level of IL-12 secreted by DCs.RESULTS : ① Expressions of CD80 and CD86 on DCs: There were no significant differences in the percentage of cells positive and fluorescence intensity for CD80 and CD86 on DC between different doses of sinomenine groups and control groups (P ＞ 0.05). ② IL-12 level secreted by DCs: From ELISA measurement, we found that IL-12 level of the sinomenine 3 mg/L, 10 mg/L and 30 mg/L groups was (863.1±33.7), (668.8±31.9), (512.6±29.6) ng/L, respectively,which was higher than that of control group [ (922.2±36.6),P ＜ 0.05-0.01]. The level of IL-12 in the supernatants of DCs co-cultured with sinomenine was significantly lower compared with control, which was dose-dependent.CONCLUSTON: Sinomenine can inhibit the level of IL-12 secreted by DCs in dose-dependent manner, but do not influence the expressions of CD80 and CD86 in DCs; The therapeutic effect of sinomenine on rheumatoid arthritis may be related to its inhibition to secretion of IL-12 in DCs.

Glutamate is an essential excitatory neurotransmitter which regulates brain functions.An increase in extracellular glutamate could excessively activate ionotropic glutamate receptors,initiate calcium overload,and lead to cell death after cerebral ischemia.Glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1) is one of the major glutamate transporters expressed predominantly in astrocytes.Astrocytes also express the enzyme glutamine synthetase (GS) which converts the glutamate to glutamine; the latter is then 'recycled' into neurons.Pretreatment with ceftriaxone (CEF),ischemia and intermittent hypobaric hypoxia could lead to neuroprotection by increasing the expression of GLT-1 and regulating the activity of glutamate transporter in brain.

Objective To explore the relationship among personality,job burnout and knowledge sharing behavior of the enterprise employees.Methods The 44 items big five inventory(BFI) ,knowledge sharing inventory and job burnout inventory were administrated to 635 employees online.Results ( 1 ) Agreeableness had a significant main effect on knowledge sharing ( β =0.135, P＜0.01); (2)Cynicism( β = -0.140, P＜0.01) and reduced personal accomplishment( β = -0.125, P＜0.01 ) had a significant effect on knowledge sharing behavior and its two dimensions; (3) Job burnout partially mediated the relationship between agreeableness and knowledge sharing behavior(P＜0.01).Conclusion Enterprise employees' personality had different effects on knowledge sharing behavior,and job burnout was an important mediating role in the relationship above.

Tumor cell invasion and metastasis are associated with the proteolytic activity of various types of proteinases.Among them,cathepsin D,which is a lysosomal proteinase,has received more attention recently.Various studies have shown that the lysosomal aspartic protease cathepsin D is over-expressed and hyper-secreted by numerous cancer cell lines.Indeed it plays an essential role in the multiple steps of tumor progression,in stimulating cancer cell proliferation,tumor invasion and metastasis,fibroblast outgrowth and angiogenesis,as well as in inhibiting tumor apoptosis.In addition,CD is also a key mediator of induced- apoptosis.The aim of this article is to review the current knowledge on Cathepsin D action in cancer progression and metastasis,as well as its dual function in apoptosis.

Ten autopsy cases of bronchiole-alveolar carcinoma (BAC) were reported. Grossly, BAC may be divided into 3 types, i. e. finely nodular, coarsely nodular and diffuse type. Histologic pattern falls into 2 categories: ' (1) alveolar type, (2) papillary type. Metastasis is most frequently mediated through lymphatics, spreading to the regional lymph nodes. Next, they are spread by blood stream. Brain (meningeal carcinomatosis),bone and adrenal glands are the frequent metastasized sites. Pulmonary fibrosis and scar formation seem to be the predisposing factors to BAC.
