OBJECTIVE:To establish a RP-HPLC method for the determination of nitrochlodipine in rabbit plasma.METH-ODS:Chromatographic conditions and extractive conditions were optimized with orthogonal design,internal standard:felodipine,solid phase extract column:C18,column size:NOVA-PackC18(4.6mm?250mm),detection wavelength:237nm.RESULTS: The optimal chromatographic conditions were:mobile phase acetonitrile-water(55∶45),flow rate 1.0ml/min,column temperature 45℃.The extraction conditions were A1 B1 C3.The calibration curve was linear within the range of 6.25～400?g/L(r=0.9 996) and the minimum limit of detection was 2.5?g/L.The average RSD of within-day ranged from 3.81% to 5.58% and that of day-to-day from 4.60% to 8.76%.The average recovery ranged from 100.7% to 101.8%.CONCLUS-ION:The method is simple,rapid,highly accurate and precise.It can be used for the quantitative determination of nitrochlodipine in plasma.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the intestinal motility alterations and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ( ICAM-1 ) expression within the rat intestinal muscularis after ischemia reperfusion. Methods Thirty Wistar rats were divided randomly into IIR, monoclanal anti-ICAM-1 and sham group (n = 10), HR models were established by clamping-releasing the superior mesenteric artery. Gut transit was measured in vivo and intestinal circular muscle contractions were measured in an organ bath. The expression of ICAM-1 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemisty. Leukocyte infiltration and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were quantified in sham and ischemia/reperfusion rats with and without monoclonal anti-ICAM-1 antibody treatment. Results The gut transit of monoclonal anti-ICAM-1 group was improved obviously as compared with IIR group. Circular smooth muscle contractility stimulated by ICAM-1 mRNA expression was 1.69 ± 0. 57 and 1.76 ± 0. 32 within the muscularis; Leukocyte infiltration into the muscularis was (5.6 ±2. 2) c/f and ( 18. 2 ±3. 1 ) c/f. MPO activity was (2. 03 ±0. 56) U/g and (6. 41 ± 1.25 ) U/g respectively. The differences were all statistically significant between IIR and treatment groups ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). The expression of ICAM-1 protein in IIR and anti-ICAM-1 groups was not significantly different (P ＞ 0. 05). Conclusions The up-regulated expression of ICAM-1 after ⅡR injury calls forth local infiltration of PMN within the intestinal muscularis, leading to intestinal motility dysfunction.

Objective To explore the influence of psychological first aid training on cognitive appraisal of sudden events in medical students.Methods A medical university undergraduate students were selected and divided into the training group(n=42) and the control group(n=53).The former was treated with 20 hours short-term targeted psychological first aid,and the latter was treated as blank control.The SAM and LMSQ were adopted to measure students' cognitive appraisal before and after the training.Results After the training,the training group gained significant differences (P＜ 0.05) in threat (11.95 ±3.17) vs (10.45±2.48)(t=2.426,P=0.020),challenge (12.64t2.84) vs (14.40±1.95)(t=-3.304,P=0.002),controllable-by-self (13.05±3.15) vs (14.93±2.00) (t=-3.240,P=0.002),controllable-by-others (12.40±3.10) vs (14.52±2.52) (t=-3.553,P=0.001),stressfulness (13.26±2.69) vs (12.00±1.96) (t=2.592,P=0.013) of SAM,and Physical threat ((23.88±7.59) vs (19.76±4.82),t=3.057,P=0.004) of LMSQ compared with before training.Other factors had no significant difference(P＞0.05).Compared with two groups,the training group gained significant increase(P＜0.05) on the score differences for SAM factors (challenge (t=-2.466,P=0.016),controllable-by-self (t=-2.557,P=0.012),controllable-by-others (t=-2.800,P=0.006)) than the control group,and significant reduction (P＜0.05) in physical threat (t=-2.308,P=0.023) of LMSQ.Conclusion Short-term targeted psychological first aid training has certain effects on changing cognitive appraisal about sudden events for medical students.

Objective:To investigate the structural alterations of mitochondria and its role in neutrophil death induced by ONO-AE-248.Methods:Human neutrophils were cultured in vitro with ONO-AE-248(5?10-5 mol/L)and medium alone. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) was used to detect the structural alterations of mitochondria and the level of mitochondria membrane potential by flow cytometry using mitocapture dying.Results:ONO-AE-248 resulted in extremely swollen mitochondria within 6 hours. Meanwhile, a rapid loss of mitochondrial membrane potential of neutrophils occurred, especially in 3 hours and 6 hours. There were obviously differences between spontaneous apoptosis and non-apoptosis programmed cell death induced by ONO-AE-248.Conclusion:The experiment results suggest that changes of mitochondrial structure and function be typically morphological, physiological and biochemical features in this unique form of neutrophil death, and that the mitochondrial pathway might play a more important role in ONO-AE-248-induced death of neutrophils.

Objective:To investigate the roles of apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing CARD(ASC),one of differentially expressed proteins in neutrophil death induced by ONO-AE-248.Methods:Human neutrophils were cultured in vitro with or without ONO-AE-248(5?10-5 mol/L).The expression of ASC mRNA was detected by RT-PCR.PMN proteins were extracted at 12 h and then separated by 2D electrophoresis.20 differentially expressed proteins were selected and determined by PDQest 2-DE software.Results:ONO-AE-248 decreased the expression of ASC mRNA strikingly in 2 hours;ASC was one of the important differentially expressed proteins between spontaneous apoptosis and non-apoptosis programmed cell death induced by ONO-AE-248 in 12 hour and ASC protein point was weaker in ONO-AE-248 group.Conclusion:ASC might act as double switch that leads to apoptosis of neutrophils in the high expression and removes the forbiddance of pathway of ONO-AE-248 signals in the low expression,resulting in non-apoptosis programmed cell death of neutrophils.
