Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2005;9(47):147-149
BACKGROUND: Inadequate hyperventilation may trigger cerebrovascular contraction and lead to lowered cerebral perfusion and oxygen supply-demand imbalance.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of hyperventilation on oxygen saturation in the internal jugular vein, difference in oxygen and lactic acid contents between the cerebral arteries and veins in patients with serious traumatic brain injury.DESIGN: Case analysis.SETTING: Department of Anesthesiology, First Hospital Affiliated to Shantou University.PARTICIPANTS: Sixteen patients who received emergency operations in the First Hospital Affiliated to Shantou University between January and July 2002.METHODS: Patients with traumatic brain injury underwent operation under general anesthesia, and the PaCO2 was maintained at 30 mm Hg for 15 minutes by regulating the respiration rate, followed by decrease to 25 mm Hg, maintained for 15 minutes before restoration to 30 mm Hg for 15 minutes. The fractional concentration of inspired oxygen was adjusted to maintain blood PaO2 at around 100-150 mm Hg, and the blood sample was collected from the artery and internal jugular vein 15 minutes after adjustment of PaCO2 for blood gas analysis. The PaO2 was then increased to 200-250 mm Hg by increasing the fractional concentration of inspired oxygen, and the PaCO2 was adjusted from 30 to 25 and then back to 30 mm Hg in the described manner, and the oxygen saturation in the internal jugular vein, difference in oxygen and lactic acid contents between the arteries and the veins were measured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Influence of blood PaO2 and PaCO2 on oxygen saturation in the internal jugular vein, difference in oxygen and lactic acid contents between the arteries and the veins.RESULTS: Sixteen patients met the diagnostic criteria and completed data collection. The arterial PaCO2 decreased from 30 to 25 mm Hg when arterial blood oxygen pressure increased from 100-150 to 200-250 mm Hg, which leads to obvious decrease of oxygen saturation in the internal jugular vein and obvious increased difference in oxygen content between the cerebral artery and vein. However the absolute value of oxygen saturation in the internal jugular vein was obviously higher at PaO2 of 200-250 mm Hg than that at PaO2 of 100-150 mm Hg, while the absolute value of cerebral arteriovenous difference of brain oxygen content was obviously lower. Compared to the basal level, the arteriovenous lactic acid difference was obviously increased at PaO2 of 100-150 mm Hg,PaCO2 of 30 and 25 mm Hg, and at PaO2 of 200-250 mm Hg and PaCO2 of 25 mm Hg.CONCLUSION: Relatively higher PaO2 (200-250 mm Hg) and mild hyperventilation (PaCO2 of 30 mm Hg) has no obvious effect on brain oxygen supply-demand balance.

Objective To investigate the role of microRNA-1 (miR-1) in cardiac fibroblasts induced by high glucose in rats. Methods The primary fibroblasts were cultured from the apical tissue of 1-3 day-old Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The cells which were passaged to generation 3 or 4, were randomly divided into normal glucose+lentivector-vehicle group (CON+Lv-Vehicle group), normal glucose+lentivector-miR-1 group (CON+Lv-miR1 group), high glucose+lentivector-vehicle group (HG+Lv-Vehicle group), high glucose+lentivector-miR-1 group (HG+Lv-miR1 group), high glucose+Lv-Vehicle+inhibitor group (HG+Lv-Vehicle+CC group), and high glucose+lentivector-miR-1+inhibitor group (HG+Lv-miR1+CC group). The myocardial fibroblasts were cultured in the concentration of 5.5 mmol/L glucose (normal glucose) or 25.0 mmol/L (high glucose) DMEM medium. Then lentiviral vector containing miR-1 silent sequence or the same volume of lentiviral vector was inoculated into the cells. The AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor Compound C (20 μmol/L) was added to the medium at 12 hours before sampling in inhibitor groups. The expression of phosphorylation of AMPK (p-AMPK), collagenⅠandⅢ, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2, MMP-9), and autophagy flux related protein LC3B-Ⅱ and p62/SQSTM1 were measured by Western Blot. Results The purity of rat myocardial fibroblasts in vitro was 97%. Compared with CON+Lv-Vehicle group, there was no significant difference in the expression of p-AMPK in CON+Lv-miR1 group, the expression of p-AMPK in HG+Lv-Vehicle group was significantly decreased (p-AMPK/t-AMPK: 44.72±3.29 vs. 100.00±7.77, 1 < 0.01). The expression of p-AMPK in HG+Lv-miR1 group was higher than that in HG+Lv-Vehicle group (p-AMPK/t-AMPK:60.52±5.16 vs. 44.72±3.29, 1 < 0.05). Compared with HG+Lv-Vehicle group, the expressions of collagen, MMP, LC3B-Ⅱand p62/SQSTM1 in HG+Lv-miR1 group were significantly decreased; after the treatment with AMPK inhibitor, the expressions of collagen, MMP, LC3B-Ⅱ, p62/SQSTM1 were significantly increased (HG+Lv-Vehicle+CC group vs. HG+Lv-Vehicle group: collagen Ⅰ/β-actin: 158.74±13.21 vs. 100.00±7.64, collagenⅢ/β-actin: 177.38± 17.31 vs. 100.00±5.18, MMP-2/β-actin: 130.09±14.31 vs. 100.00±10.47, MMP-9/β-actin: 215.54±20.92 vs. 100.00±11.28, LC3B-Ⅱ/β-actin: 159.34±13.83 vs. 100.00±6.44, p62/SQSTM1/β-actin: 201.01±24.02 vs. 100.00±8.62; HG+Lv-miR1+CC group vs. HG+Lv-miR1 group: collagenⅠ/β-actin: 108.69±9.93 vs. 80.83±7.24, collagenⅢ/β-actin: 127.68±10.46 vs. 81.56±9.97, MMP-2/β-actin: 106.66±10.21 vs. 74.80±7.43, MMP-9/β-actin: 145.65±11.56 vs. 74.63±10.55, LC3B-Ⅱ/β-actin: 150.15±13.28 vs. 22.98±2.87, p62/SQSTM1/β-actin: 130.48±10.74 vs. 49.90±2.27, all 1 < 0.05). Conclusion miR-1 gene silencing inhibits myocardial fibrosis induced by high glucose, its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of p-AMPK, which can recover autophagy flux.

Objective:To observe the lipid-lowering effect of atorvastatin on patients with acute cerebral infarction with different ATP-binding cassette subfamily B member 1(ABCB1) genotypes, and thus to provide clinical research evidence for individual application of atorvastatin in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:From March 2021 to December 2021, 131 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the Department of Neurology of Xuchang Central Hospital were included. The ABCB1 G2677T gene polymorphism rs2032582 of patients was detected by fluorescence staining in situ hybridization.Based on the detection results, patients were divided into GG group, GT group and TT group.All patients were given atorvastatin (20 mg/d) for lipid-lowering treatment.The levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C), total cholesterol(TC)and triglyceride(TG) in serum of patients in the three groups before and 2 months after treatment were recorded and analyzed.The adverse drug reactions in the three groups were recorded. When the serum LDL-C level was less than 1.8 mmol/L, it was considered that the lipid-lowering treatment was effective.The binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the influencing factors of atorvastatin lipid lowering therapy.The software of SPSS 25.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:There were 50 (38.17%), 49 (37.40%) and 32 (24.43%) patients in GG group, GT group and TT group, respectively. The serum TC levels of patients in GG group, GT group and TT group after treatment were (3.47±0.70) mmol/L, (3.59±1.09) mmol/L and (3.48±1.02) mmol/L, respectively, which were lower than those before treatment ((4.27± 0.99) mmol/L, (4.02±0.98) mmol/L and (4.03±1.31) mmol/L), all of which were statistically significant ( t=7.652, 3.092, 5.593, all P<0.01). The serum LDL-C levels in GG group, GT group and TT group after treatment were (1.89±0.53) mmol/L, (2.07±0.92) mmol/L and (1.96±0.79) mmol/L, respectively, which were lower than those before treatment ((2.87±0.92) mmol/L, (2.56±0.89) mmol/L and (2.55±1.11) mmol/L) ( t=9.896, 4.055, 5.980, all P<0.001). The differences of serum LDL-C level before and after treatment in GG group, GT group and TT group were (-0.97±0.69) mmol/L, (-0.50±0.86) mmol/L and (-0.59±0.56) mmol/L, respectively. The difference of serum LDL-C level before and after treatment in the three groups was statistically significant ( F=5.614, P=0.005). The difference of TC, TG and HDL-C before and after treatment was not statistically significant( F=2.783, 0.490, 1.677, all P>0.05). The binary Logistic regression analysis showed that ABCB1 G2677T gene type and staying up late were independent influencing factors for atorvastatin lipid-lowering therapy. The probability of effective lipid-lowering in GT patients with ABCB1 G2677T gene was 27.9% of that in GG patients ( OR=0.279, 95% CI: 0.110-0.709, P=0.007), and the probability of TT type patients was 33.8% of GG type patients ( OR=0.338, 95% CI: 0.121-0.943, P=0.038). The probability of effective lipid-lowering in patients who had the habit of staying up late was 26.4% of the patients who did not stay up late ( OR=0.264, 95% CI: 0.118-0.591, P=0.001). There was no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse drug reactions among the three groups( χ2=0.868, P=0.648). Conclusion:The lipid-lowering effect in patients with GG type of ABCB1 G2677T is better than that of GT type and TT type when atorvastatin is used to treat patients with acute cerebral infarction.

OBJECTIVE:To study the ef fects of Gegen qinlian decoction (GGQLD)on blood lipid and blood glucose of hyperlipidemia(HLP)model rats ,and to explore its mechanism from the perspective of intestinal flora. METHODS :Totally 48 rats were randomly divided into blank control group (n=8)and modeling group (n=40). For consecutive 5 weeks,model group was given high-lipid diet to induce HLP model ;blank control group was given routine diet. After modeling ,30 modeling rats were randomly divided into model group ,simvastatin group (positive control ,10 mg/kg),GGQLD high-dose ,medium-dose and low-dose groups (14.85,4.95,1.65 g/kg,by crude drug ),with 6 rats in each group. Blank control group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intragastrically ;administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically ,once a day,for consecutive 11 weeks. At the same time ,each group was continuously given corresponding diet. After the last medication , body mass and body length of rats were determined ,and Lee ’s index was calculated. Serum levels of TG ,TC,HDL-C,LDL-C and fasting blood glucose (FBG)were determined in rats. DNA of rat caecum content was extracted for 16S rRNA V 3-V4 region sequencing. The Two-part model was used to analyze the correlation between intestinal flora with lipids and blood glucose. RESULTS:After 11 weeks of administration ,compared with blank control group ,the body mass ,body length ,Lee’s index , serum levels of TC ,TG,HDL-C and FBG of model group were increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01),while the level of HDL-C was decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with model group ,body mass and Lee ’s index and serum levels of TG , FBG of rats in GGQLD high-dose group ,and serum levels of TC ,TG in GGQLD medium-dose group ,as well as serum level of TG of rats in GGQLD low-dose group was decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Correlation analysis with intestinal flora showed that TC and TG shared 3 operational taxonomic units (OTU),including OTU 559,OTU701 and OTU 135(OTU135 was also shared with FBG ),which were all positively correlated with the level of TC ,TG and FBG (P<0.01). The three OTU were annotated as Tyzzerella of Spirillaceae ,Anaerotruncus of Verrucaceae and Peptoclostridium of Streptococcidae ,respectively. High-dose and low-dose GGQLD had a down-regulating effect on Tyzzerella and Anaerotruncus(P<0.05 or P<0.01),while had up-regulating effect on Peptoclostridium(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS :High-dose GGQLD (14.85 g/kg)can effectively reduce the body mass and blood lipid of HLP model rats ,and can prevent the abnormal increase of blood glucose of model rats. The mechanism may be associated with that the reduction of intestinal flora (Tyzzerella,Anaerotruncus)content.
