BACKGROUND: When the liver affected severe damage or excalation, liver stem cells rapidly proliferated and differentiated into mature liver cells to repair liver tissue. However, liver regeneration is a complicated multiple signal molecular regulatory process and related genes and proteins that participated in regulation remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expressions of CD34 and Delta-like-1 protein in rat liver regenerated tissues after partial hepatectomy. METHODS: Rat hepatic regeneration models were established after hepatectomy. Expressions of ATPase, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), CD34 and Delta-like-1 protein were detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining, enzyme-histochemistry and immunohistochemistry method at various time points. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: At the early stage of liver regeneration, the expression of ATPase was down-regulated, and the expressions of CD34 and Delta-like-1 protein were up-regulated. At the middle stage, the expression of ATPase was increased to the normal level, and the expressions of CD34 and Delta-like-1 protein were down-regulated. The expression of PCNA protein was continuously up-regulated. These suggest that the expressions of ATPase, CD34 and Delta-like-1 protein were different at different stages of hepatic regeneration, which means that different signal molecules were cooperated during the hepatic regeneration, and Notch-Delta signal pathway takes part in the pathogenesy.

Protease activated receptor-2(PAR-2)is a G-protein-coupled receptor.Recent studies indicate that PAR-2 is mainly expressed in leukocytes and activated by pancreatin and(or)tryptase,which subsequently induces inflammation through degranulation of leukocytes.Activation of PAR-2 in leukocytes is possibly involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis.

Objective To evaluate the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in reduction of hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury by hypoxic preconditioning or norepinephrine preconditioning in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Methods Primary cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into 6 groups (n = 25 each): control group (group Ⅰ), H/R group (group Ⅱ), hypoxia preconditioning group (group Ⅲ), norepinephrine preconditioning group (group Ⅳ), H7 + hypoxia preconditioning group (group Ⅴ) and H7 + norepinephrine preconditioning group (group Ⅵ). In group Ⅱ , the cardiomyocytes were exposed to 3 h of hypoxia followed by 1 h of reoxygenation. In group Ⅲ, the cells were subjected to 20 min of hypoxia followed by 20 min of reoxygenation before H/R. Norepinephrine was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 10- 7 mol/L,and then the cells were cultured for 30 min before H/R in group Ⅳ. H7 was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 5 × 10-5 mol/L, the cells were then cultured for 10 min, and the following procedures before H/R were the same as thase described in group Ⅴ . H7 was added to the culture medium with a final concentration of 5 × 10-5 mol/L, the cells were then cultured for 10 min, and the following procedures were the same as those described in group Ⅵ. The cell survival rate, the activities of LDH and CK in the supernatant, and the content of MDA and activity of SOD in cardiomyocytes were determined. Results The cell survival rate and activity of SOD were significantly lower, while the LDH and CK activities and MDA content higher in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ ,in group Ⅴ than in group Ⅲ, and in group Ⅵ than in group Ⅳ (P < 0.01). The cell survival rate and activity of SOD were significantly increased, while the LDH and CK activities and MDA content decreased in group Ⅲ and Ⅳ compared with group Ⅱ (P<0.01).Conclusion The activiation of PKC is involved in the reduction of H/R injury by hypoxic preconditioning or norepinephrine preconditioning in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes.
