Objective To investigate the protective effects and molecular mechanism of peroxisome proliferate-activated receptor α(PPARα) activation on acute myocardial damage induced by isoproterenol (Iso) in rats. Methods Thirty male Wistar rats, weighting 160~180 g, were randomly divided into control group, Iso group, fenafibrate(FF) group(each n=10) according to physique quantity. Acute myocardial injury caused by Iso abdomen cavity injection induced ischemia was established and the protective effects of peroxisome proliferate-activated receptor α activation were accessed by the level of ereatine kinase(CK), lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) in serum as well as the activities of myoperoxidase(MPO) in myocardium, and the protein expressions of PPABα in myocardium by Western blot. Results The level of serum CK in control group, lso group and FF group, was (62.41±9.47),(101.71±11.05),(75.64±11.73)kU/L, respectively(F= 34.34, P<0.01). Whereas the level of serum CK in Iso group and FF group was higher than that in control group(P<0.01 or<0.05), the level of serum CK in FF group was lower than that in Iso group(P<0.01). The levels of LDH in these three groups were (5912.20±204.44), (6365.78±137.10), (6089.76±169.60) U/L, respectively(F= 17.54, P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the levels of LDH in Iso and Fir groups were significantly increased(P<0.01 or<0.05). But the level of LDH in FIr group was decreased compared with that in Iso group(P<0.01). The activities of myocardial MPO in these three groups were (1.95±0.10),(3.89±0.17),(2.49±0.19)U/g, espectively(F=391.68,P< 0.01). The activities of myocardial MPO in Iso and FF groups were higher than that in the control group (all P< 0.01), while the activities of myocardial MPO in FIr group were lower than that in lso group(P<0.01). The protein expressions of PPARα in myocardium of these three groups were 251.57±10.95,191.97±10.74,215.08±9.61, respectively(F=82.69, P<0.01). Conclusion PPARα activation by its actor FF can exert protective effects on the acute myocardial ischemia injury induced by lso in rats through inhibiting the release of inflammatory cell factors.

Background The hyperplasia of human Tenon capsule fibroblasts (HTFs) is a common cause of filtering surgery failure in glaucomous eye.Researches demonstrated that hydroxycamptothecin is a cell cycle arresting drug and induce apoptosis of cancer and fibroblasts.However,its mechanism is currently less understood.Objective This study was to investigate whether hydroxycamptothecin induce the apoptosis of HTFs and explore the possible mechanism.Methods Human Tenon capsule tissue was obtained from EyeBank of Jiangsu Province Hospital.HTFs were cultured using explant method in vivo and passaged in DMEM containing 10% FBS.The cells were identified using vimentin and keratin by immunochemistry,and the cells of generation 3-6 in the logarithmic growth phase were used in the experiment.The cells were incubated with 0.01,0.05 or 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin for 5 minutes respectively,and the cells without any hydroxycamptothecin were served as the control group.Cell viability then was assessed by cell counting kit-8 (CCK8) for the optimal inhibition concentration.The cells were treated by 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin for 24 hours,and the apoptotic rate of the cells were assayed with annexin V/PI double-staining.Mitochondrial membrane potential of HTFs was assessed using JC-1 staining.The expressions of caspase-3,caspase-9 and cytochrome C (cyt C) in mitochondria and cytoplasm of HTFs were detected by Western blot.Results The proliferative value (A450) of the HTFs 0,0.01,0.05,0.10 g/L was 0.9716±0.0608,0.8035 ± 0.0346,0.7048 ±0.0446,0.6265 ±0.0286,with a significant difference (F =26.372,P =0.002).A450 of HTFs in the 0.01,0.05,0.10 g/L groups was significantly lower than the control group (P<0.05),with the lowest A450 value in the 0.10 g/L group.The apoptotic percentage of HTFs was (18.72±1.41)%,in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group and that of the control group was (3.67 ±0.36)%,showing a significant difference between them (t =-10.374,P=0.001).The expression intensity of caspase-3 and caspase-9 protein in HTFs was higher in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group than that in the control group.JC-1 staining showed that the green fluorescence of the monomer JC-1 in cytoplasm was stronger in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group than that in the control group,but the red fluorescence of the polymer JC-1 in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group was weaker than that in the control group.The grey scale of cyt C protein in HTFs in mitochondrion was 0.0605±0.0022 in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group,showing a significant increase in comparison with 0.0301 ±0.0016 of the control group (t=4.865,P=0.014).However,the grey scale of cyt C protein in cytoplasm was declined in the 0.10 g/L hydroxycamptothecin group than that in the control group (0.0605 ±0.0022 vs.0.0301 ±0.0016) (t =-11.177,P =0.001).Conclusions Hydroxycamptothecin can induce the apoptosis of HTFs through activating the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway.

Endostatin is a potent, endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis, which corresponds to the C-terminal fragment of collagen ⅩⅧ. The human endostatin gene was amplified from a human fetal liver cDNA library by means of PCR and was cloned into pPIC9K vector. Soluble endostatin was superexpressed in Pichia pastoris (50.5mg/L) . The recombinant protein was purified by cation exchange chromatography with the final yield of more than 95%. Western blotting analysis showed positive immunoreactivity to the expressed product. Recombinant endostatin was able to suppress the angiogenesis on the CAMs. Also, the endostatin inhibited specifically of the migration of HMECs stimulated by bFGF, with EC50 being about 0.4 ?g/ml.

Objective To evaluate the effect of point-of-care hemoglobin/hematocrit (POC HGB/HCT) devices and intraoperative blood salvage on the amount of perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion and blood conservation in clinical practice.Methods A total of 46 378 medical records of 22 selected hospitals were reviewed. The volume of allogeneic red blood cell and plasma, number of patients transfused, number of intraoperative autologous blood salvage, total volume of autologous blood transfusion, and amount of surgery in the year of 2011 and 2013 were tracked. Paired t-test was used in intra-group comparison, while t-test of two isolated samples carried out in inter-group comparison. P<0.05 was defined as statistically significant difference.Results In the hospitals where POC HGB/HCT device was used (n=9), the average allogeneic blood transfusion volume per 100 surgical cases in 2013 was significantly lower than that in 2011 (39.86±20.20 vs. 30.49±17.50 Units, t=3.522, P=0.008). In the hospitals without POC HGB/HCT meter, the index was not significantly different between 2013 and 2011. The average allogeneic blood transfusion volume was significantly reduced in 2013 than in 2011 in the hospitals where intraoperative autologous blood salvage ratio [autologous transfusion volume/(autologous transfusion volume+allogeneic transfusion volume)] was increased (n=12, t=2.290, P=0.042). No significant difference of the above index was found in the hospitals whose autologous transfusion ratio did not grow.Conclusion Intraoperative usage of POC HGB/HCT devices and increasing autologous transfusion ratio could reduce perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion.

To optimize the Scutellaria baicalensis extraction process, the filter paper method and the bacteriostatic ratio method were adopted to determine the in vitro bacteriostatic efficacy of water extracts and 60% alcohol extracts from S. baicalensis. The quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) was used to determined the contents of four active components, baicalin, wogonoside, baicalein and wogonin. In addition, with the bacteriostatic ratio and the overall desirability of the contents of four active components as indexes, the orthogonal experiment was adopted to detect the effect of water addition, extraction frequency and extraction time. The optimal extraction process was to add 12 times of water for the first time, 10 times of water for the second time, extract for 2 time, 2 h for each time. This optimization process is stable and feasible, with a higher bacteriostatic ratio in extracts.
