International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2010;18(4):266-271
Objective To investigate the effects of tissue kallikrein on expressions of bradykinin, bradykinin Bl receptor (B1R) and bradykinin B2 receptor (B2R) in ischemic brain tissue following cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. Methods Fifty-four SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation, normal saline (NS) (2 ml · kg-1 · d-1, for 3 days), and TK (IK 175 × 10-3 U· kg-1 · d-1,for3 days) groups (n = 18 in each group). After three days,the neurological deficit score and the measurement of cerebral infarct volume were performed,The concentration of bradykinin in the ischemic region was detected by the enzyme- linked imrnunosorbent assay (ELBA).reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of BlR, B2R in ischemic brain tissue, respectively. Results Compared with the NS group, the neurological deficit (6.17 ± 1. 17 vs. 8. 17 ± 1.33; t =2.000, P =0- 004) and the cerebral infarct volume (29. 67% ±3. 78% vs. 37. 50% ± 6. 72% ;t =0.078, P =0.005) in the TK group were reduced significantly; the concentration of bradykinin in ischemic brain tissue in the TK group was increased significantly (9.25 ± 1. 13 vs. 15.53 ± 1.68, t =6.283, P =0. 000); the expression of B2R mRNA was up regulated significantly (1. 21 ±0. 17 υs. 2.15 ±0.20; t =0.943,P =0- 000), but the up-regulation of the B2R mRNA expression was not obvious (0.51 ±0.05 υs. 0.57 ±0.06; t =0.058, P =0. 141); the expression of B2R protein in ischemic brain tissue was up-regulated significantly (1. 15 ±0. 16 vs. 1. 88 ± 0.21, t =0. 737, P =0. 000), but the up-regulation of BlR was not obvious (0. 50 ±0.04 vs. 0.53 ±0.05, t = 1.326, P =0. 214). Conclusions TK has protective effect on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats. It may increase the bradykinin concentration in ischemic brain tissue, and up-regulate B2R expression, but it has little effect on Bl R expression.It is speculated that B2R may play a major role in TK protecting ischemic brain tissue.

Objective To explore the therapeutical effect and its mechanism of tissue kallikrein (TK) on cerebral ischemic-reperfusion rat.Methods 36 rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group, NS group [administrated with normal sodium 2 ml/(kg?d)], TK group [administrated with TK 17.5?10-3U/(kg?d)]. The NS and TK groups rats were injected intraperitoneally with NS or TK for three consecutive days. After that, neurological function and the infarct volume was appraised in each of group. Meanwhile, the ischemic tissue were detected by Nissl's staining. TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry were used to examine the caspase-3,TNF-?,IL-1,NSE,GFAP,vWF expression in ischemic tissue.Results Compared with NS group, TK group significantly reduced the loss of neurological function and the infarct volume and improved the change of pathology in ischemic tissue(all P

Objective To study the effectiveness of Huperzine A,Nimodipine and the combinative utilization to age associated memory impairment(AAMI) and the influence of those to the plasma total antioxidant capacity(TAC) and calcium of platelet.Methods 140 patients with AAMI were randomly divided into 4 groups(35 cases in each group).Huperzine group administrated with Huperzine A 100 ?g thrice a day;Nimodipine group administrated with Nimodipine 30 mg thrice a day;combined group administrated with Huperzine A 100 ?g twice a day and Nimodipine 30 mg thrice a day;control group administrated with Vitamin B6 10 mg thrice a day.All the cases were treated for 6 weeks.Before and after treatment,the memory function were tested by WMS.The levels of plasma TAC and calcium of platelet were also measured at the same time.Results After treatment,the scores of WMS,the levels of plasma TAC and calcium of platelet in Huperzine A group,Nimodipine group and combined group were higher than before treatment and those in control group(all P

Objective To investigate the effect of lymphatic flow impedement on intestinal bacterial translocation in rats with obstructive jaundice. Methods Murine obstructive jaundice model was established by ligating lower choledochus. Sixty rats were divided into three groups: sham-operative group (group A), obstructive jaundice group (group B), and obstructive jaundice with thoracic duct ligation group (group C). At post-op day 15 vena cava inferior blood? portal vein blood were drawn, and endotoxin, TNF-?, IL-6 were determined. Baterial culture of mesenteric lymph nodes and lung were measured with aseptic manipulation. The extreme intestinal lumen mucosa and lung were studied pathologically. Results Blood concentration of endotoxin increased in group B and C ( P

Objective:
To understand the interrelationships of parental control, peer relationship, and aggressive behavior in junior high school students, in order to provide a theoretical basis for preventing the occurrence of adolescent aggressive behavior.
Methods:
During June to July, 2022, 2 564 students of grade one to grade three were selected from 6 junior high schools from each of Suzhou and Xuancheng cities in Anhui Province by using convenient cluster random sampling method, and then the questionnaire survey was administered, including the Chinese version of Parent Control Questionnaire, Chinese version of Buss & Perry Aggression Questionnaire and Adolescent Peer Relationship Questionnaire.
Results:
Boys scored (185.31±27.49, 21.65±7.43, 21.77 ±8.18, 69.50±11.41, 72.39±11.53) higher than girls (178.21±25.13, 20.08±7.09, 20.61±7.62, 66.56± 11.14 , 70.95± 11.84 ) in parental control, father s psychological control, mother s psychological control, father s behavioral control, and mother s behavioral control ( t =8.63, 5.47, 3.70, 6.60, 3.12), while girls scored (48.41±11.26) higher in peer relationship than boys ( 47.13 ± 10.84 ) ( t =-2.95) ( P <0.01). The scores of first grade students in parental control, father s psychological control, mother s psychological control, father s behavior control, peer relationship, and aggressive behavior (184.67±27.18, 21.83± 7.29 , 22.15±8.07, 68.81±10.95, 50.21±9.57, 80.23±17.66) were higher than those of second gradestudents (180.98±25.46, 20.16±7.82, 20.21±7.55, 68.29±11.69, 45.47±11.67, 74.08±17.70) and third grade students (179.21±26.79, 20.53±7.22, 21.17 ± 8.06 , 66.81± 11.39 , 47.54±11.43, 75.75±16.29) ( F =9.44, 12.87, 13.61, 6.84, 42.85, 30.40, P <0.01). The scores of parental control and peer relationship were positively correlated with the scores of aggressive behavior ( r=0.22, 0.47, P <0.01). Peer relationship partially mediate the relationship between parental control and aggressive behavior, with a partial mediation effect value of 0.04, accounting for 26.39% of the total effect of parental control on aggressive behavior.
Conclusions
High parental control and poor peer relationship are both positively correlated with the level of aggressive behavior. The peer relationship of teenagers should be improved by establishing appropriate parenting style, tackling campus violence, and maintaining good social norms, in order to reduce the occurrence of aggressive behavior among adolescents.
