International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;38(8):733-736
Objective To investigate the protection of tea polyphenols (TP) against pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. Methods A total of 100 rats were randomly devided into five groups:the sham operation group, the model control group, the high-, medium-and low-dose TP groups. Two hours after reperfusion, the PO2 and the lung tissue wet/dry (W/D) ratio were examined; the apoptosis index (AI) was analysised;the activity of SOD, CAT and the content of MDA in lung tissue were determined. Results Compared with the model control group, the W/D (5.7 ± 0.4, 5.5 ± 0.4 vs. 6.5 ± 0.5) and the AI (19.3%± 1.8%, 14.2%± 1.4%vs. 31.2%± 2.4%) of the high-, medium-dose groups were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the activity of SOD (115.2 ± 18.1 U/mg, 128.7 ± 20.9 U/mg vs. 94.7 ± 12.1 U/mg), CAT (1.3 ± 0.2 U/mg, 1.7 ± 0.4 U/mg vs. 0.9 ± 0.2 U/mg) in lung tissue of the the high-, medium-dose groups groups were significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the content of MDA (1.1 ± 0.3 nmol/L, 1.0 ± 0.3 nmol/L vs. 1.6 ± 0.5 nmol/L) were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The PO2 (93.4%± 4.0%vs. 85.9%± 3.4%) of the high-dose group were significantly increased compared to the model group (P<0.01). Conclusion TPs could effectively lower the W/D, increase the PO2, inhibit the hepatocyte apoptosis, lower the AI, suggesting that TPs had protective effects against pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats, which perhaps related to its effects of improving antioxidant ability and inhibiting the oxidative stress.

Journal of Chinese Physician 2016;18(1):81-83
Objective To investigate the expression of Chemerin in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(CIN) and cervical cancer and its relation with clinicopathological characteristics.Methods The expression of Chemerin was determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 35 cervical cancer cases,20 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia cases and 20 normal persons.The association of serum level of Chemerin with clinicopathological charactersistics was analyzed.Results The level of Chemerin was the highest in cervical cancer cases [(2113.35 ± 198.64) ng/L],higher in CIN [(1562.78 ± 158.65) ng/L],and low in normal persons [(946.36 ± 113.57) ng/L],showing significant difference among three groups.The serum level of Chemerin in cervical cancer were positively correlated with Federation International of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage and lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05).Serum Chemerin levels were increased with clinical FIGO stage and showed significantly positive correlation with FIGO stage (rs =0.92,P =O.000).Conclusions The expression of Chemerin in patients with cervical carcinoma is increased.Chemerin may be used as reference indicator to predict its progression in cervical carcinoma.
3.Intraperitoneal transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of acute liver injury in rats
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2013;(49):8527-8531
BACKGROUND:In vitro experiments have confirmed that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can be induced to differentiate into hepatocyte-like cells, thus which can be considered to function as liver repair.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the therapeutic effect of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem celltransplantation on acute liver injuries in rats through in vivo animal experiments.
METHODS:Healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups:normal control group without modeling, celltransplantation group, and PBS group. Rat models of acute liver injury were prepared by 10%CCl4-olive oil solution in the celltransplantation and PBS groups which were fol owed by intraperitoneal injection of 0.5 mL human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cellsuspension and 0.5 mL PBS, respectively.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that pathological changes related to acute liver injury appeared at 24 hours after intraperitoneal injection of CCl 4 . Then, the liver structure recovered at 7 days after celltransplantation, but it did not recover til the 14th day after PBS injection. Compared with the normal control group, serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels were significantly increased in the other two groups (P<0.05-0.01). In the celltransplantation group, the serum alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels were significantly lower than those in the PBS group at 3 days after treatment (P<0.05-0.01), and recovered normal y after 7 days. cells positive for anti-human nucleoprotein antibody were found in the portal area of liver tissues in the celltransplantation group after 3 days of transplantation, and then cells positive for anti-human albumin antibody appeared after 7 days. These findings indicate that intraperitoneal transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can improve liver function and repair injured liver tissues after acute liver injury in rats to some extent.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on gastric mucosa of rats with hemorrhagic shock. Methods Eighteen healthy male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups, 6 rats for each group: control group, hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group. The animals in control group were subjected to anaesthesia and intubation, without hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation, and all the parameters were determined 4h after intubation. The animals in hemorrhagic shock group and the rhGH treated group were not only given anaesthesia, intubation for carotid artery and internal jugular vein, but also reproduced as hemorrhagic shock-resuscitation model by bleeding from carotid artery and blood transfusion via internal jugular vein. The animals in rhGH treated group were given rhGH (1.5U/kg) when resuscitation began. In the hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group all the parameters were determined 2h after resuscitation. Gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) was determined with laser doppler flowmetry (LDF), and the extent of gastric mucosal injury was assessed with optical microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results GMBF of the rats in hemorrhagic shock group was significantly lower than that in control group (260.4?49.6bpu vs. 418.6?57.3bpu, P0.05). The gastric mucosa injuries in the rats of rhGH treated group were greatly improved. Conclusion The rhGH, through enhancing the GMBF, can ameliorate the gastric mucosal ischemic-reperfusion injury in rats with hemorrhagic shock.
