Objective To observe temporal expression of matrix metalloproteinases(MMP-13) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteina-ses-1 (TIMP-1) in lung of newborn rats with hyperoxia induced chronic lung disease (CLD),and to explore the relationship of CLD with MMPs.Methods The neonatal rats within 24 hours after birth were randomly divided into hyperoxia-exposed group(n=40) and control group(n=40).On postnatal 1,3,7,14 and 21 days,lung tissue of rats in 2 groups were collected.Lung histological changes were evaluated by hematoxylin and eosin and Masson stain;Collagen Ⅰ was detected by enzyme linked immunoadsorbent assay;MMP-13 and TIMP-1 were identifide by immunohistochemistry.Results Exposured to hyperoxia enviroment for 21 days,the number of alveolar decreased,terminal air space enlarged,inter-alveolar septa thickened,and deposition of interstitial collagen fibers.On 14 and 21 days,collagen Ⅰ in the lung of hyperoxia-exposed group increased significantly compared with that of control group(P0.05),obviously decreased on 21 day(P

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the relationship of clinical efficacy between XPD Lys751Gln (A/C),XPD Asp312Asn(G/A)and platinum-based chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC),and provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBase, Medline, CJFD,VIP database and WanFang database,studies about the effects of XPD Lys751Gln and XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism on ef-fectiveness,clinical outcomes and adverse drug reaction of platinum-based chemotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients were collect-ed,and Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 software. RESULTS:Totally 30 studies were included,involving 5 028 patients. Genetic testing showed that XPD Lys751Gln divided into mutant gene (Lys/Gln + Gln/ Gln) and wild-type gene (Lys/Lys),while XPD Asp312Asn divided into mutant gene (Asp/Asn + Asn/Asn) and wild-type gene (Asp/Asp). Results of Me-ta-analysis showed,the progression-free survival (PFS) of Lys/Gln+Gln/Gln patients with platinum in XPD Lys751Gln polymor-phism was obviously lower than Lys/Lys patients [OR=-1.12,95%CI(-1.73,-0.50),P<0.001],while there was no significant difference in the chemotherapy effectiveness and total survival period. The effective rate of Asp/Asn+Asn/Asn patients for platinum in XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism was lower than Asp/Asp patients [OR=0.80,95%CI(0.68,0.96),P=0.02],while there was no significant difference in the total survival period and PFS. Meanwhile,the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳ level gastrointestinal adverse reac-tions of Lys/Gln+Gln/Gln with platinum in XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism was higher than Lys/Lys patients [OR=0.43,95%CI (0.20,0.94),P=0.03],and there was no significant difference in Ⅲ-Ⅳ level blood system adverse reactions. CONCLUSIONS:XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism may be associated with PFS and Ⅲ-Ⅳ level gastrointestinal adverse reactions for advanced NSCLC patients with platinum-based chemotherapy,while XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism may have effect on platinum-based chemotherapy,both of them may be as estimate the chemotherapy effect and prognosis detection index of platinum-based chemo-therapy.

Objective To explore the dynamic changes of collagen type Ⅰand Ⅳ messenger ribonucleic acid(mRNA)expression in the lung tissue of neonatal rats after inhaling high concentration of oxygen and the role of collagen type Ⅰand Ⅳ mRNA in chronic lung disease(CLD)induced by hyperoxia.Methods Full-term newborn rats were grouped according to inhale the concentration of oxygen into hypero-xia group and air control group after birth within 12 hours.Lung histological section at day 1,3,7,14 and 21 in 2 groups were prepared for hematoxylin-eosin staining and the detection of mRNA level of collagen type Ⅰand Ⅳ by in situ hybridization.The results were analyzed with SPSS 11.0 software.Results Compared with air control group,inflammation response was seen in early stage,the arrest of lung development was evident after 7 d of oxygen exposure,at last interstitial fibrosis.It was shown that the positive expression of collagen typeⅠ was mainly in the alveolar epithelial cells and endothelial cells by in situ hybridization.The expression of collagen typeⅠ mRNA was weakened compared to air group on 7 d(P0.05).Conclusions Prolonged hyperoxia may cause the onset of arrested lung development and lung fibrosis,which are similar to the changes of chronic lung disease.The collagen type Ⅰand Ⅳ mRNA expressions are not parallel to their protein contents,suggesting the main modulation of these collagens may be not at transcriptional level.

Aim To investigate the role of substance P in the brain of asthmatic rats.Methods Rats were injected with aluminum hydroxide and OVA allergens to prepare the animal model of asthma. Then the content of c-fos protein in asthmatic rats' brain was detected by immunohistochemical method (SABC).The content of substance P in paraventricular nucleus (PVN), the content of corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) in median eminence (ME), and the content of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone (CORT) in peripheral blood were detected by radioimmunoassay method. Then exogenous SP, SP receptor antagonist S0145 were microinjected in PVN to observe their effect upon lung function and HPA axis in asthmatic rats. Results In asthmatic rats, the content of SP increased within the PVN. The content of CRH, ACTH and CORT decreased (P<0.05).The ratio of expiratory and inspiratory and airway resistance increased. Diaphragm discharge points and lung compliance decreased (P<0.01).After microinject of SP in PVN, there was a further decrease in pulmonary function and the content of CORT, ACTH and CRH in asthmatic rats (P<0.01).While the SP receptor antagonist S0145 might reverse the change of lung function and hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis) in asthmatic rats.Conclusion In asthmatic rats the SP in PVN can affect the function of HPA axis, involved in asthma attacks.

Objective To discuss the effects of extract of Ginkgo BilobaLeaves(EGb) on expression of cytokine of renal interstitial fibrosis induced by transforming growth factor-?1 (TGF-?1) and extracellular matrix. Methods Cultured human kidney cells(HKC) were divided into three groups: control group,TGF-?1(8 ng/mL) group,and TGF-?1(8 ng/mL) added EGb(25,50,100,150 mg/L)group.After 72 h,expression of ?-SMA was detected by cell immunochemistry ABC,and collagen type I by Real-time PCR and Western blotting. Results Treated with TGF-?1(8 ng/mL) for 72 h,expression of ?-SMA and collagen type Ⅰ were up-regulated markedly compared with control group.Treated with EGb(25,50,100,150 mg/L)and TGF-?1(8 ng/mL)concomitantly for 72 h,expression of ?-SMA and collagen typeⅠ were down-regulated in dosage dependent manner compared with TGF-?1 group. Conclusion EGb can inhibit expression of ?-SMA and collagen type I in HKC induced by TGF-?1,and the possible mechanism might be related to the inhibition of EGb on renal tubular epithelial-myofibroblast transdifferentiation.
