Pathologic pain is a common suffering and does great harm to people health. Therefore it is important to search some suitable targets for pain management. Recently it has been shown that activated inflammatory cells and glia are strongly implicated in the pathologic pain. Cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate,a universal intracellular second messenger,has been proven to inhibit the activity of inflammatory cells and glia by enhancing its activity,further to control pathologic pain. This review presents the current understanding of the underlying mechanisms for the inhibitive effect of cAMP signal pathway in inflammatory cells and glia,and the effect of phosphodiesterase inhibitors used for relieving pathologic pain.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of Xinfeng Capsule (XFC), a compound Chinese herbal medicine, on behaviors and myocardial ultrastructure in adjuvant arthritis (AA) rats. METHODS: Fifty-five rats were randomly divided into normal control group, untreated group, methotrexate (MTX) group, Tripterygium wilfordii glycosides tablet (TGT) group and XFC group. There were 11 rats in each group. Except for those in the normal control group, the rats in the other groups were all intracutaneously given 0.1 ml Freund's complete adjuvant in the right hind limb. Changes of behaviors and myocardial ultrastructure of the rats in different groups were observed. RESULTS: Voix pedis' swelling and arthritis index in XFC, MTX and TPT groups were all obviously improved as compared with the untreated group. After XFC treatment, the autonomic activities were obviously increased, number of errors in exercise period and test period were obviously decreased, step-down latency (SDL) was lengthened and escape latency (EL) was shortened. Overall structure of myocardial myofibril and the majority of cristae was intact in XFC group. The effects of XFC in improving the behaviors and myocardial ultrastructure were better than those of MTX and TPT. CONCLUSION: Changes of behaviour and myocardial ultrastructure of AA rats can be observed. XFC can improve the myocardial ultrastructure of AA rats as well as their behaviors.

The immune nutrients play an important role in nutritional support,immune regulation and maintenance of intestinal barrier function.In recent years,with the deepening study,the effect of immune nutrients in the comprehensive cancer treatment has constantly being recognized.Many studies have shown that glutamine (Gln),arginine (Arg) and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) have effect on the tumor itself and the combination cancer chemotherapy.

Objective To study the effect of continuous venovenous haemodiafiltration (CVVHDF) on the clearances of various solutes in multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS)dogs.Methods Dogs were subjected to hemorrhagic shock plus resuscitation and endotoxemia to set up MODS model,then they were randomly divided into 2 groups: MODS group (M group)and MODS+CVVHDF group (M+C group).A PRISMA pre-dilution system with AN-69 filter was applied.Solute clearance of nitric oxide(NO),urea nitrogen(UN),creatinine (Cr),interleukin-6 (IL-6),interleukin-10 (IL-10),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and endotoxin (LP) was determined with same dialysate and ultrafiltrate volume during CVVHDF.The clearance of various solutes (Kd) was calculated by the concentration of the cleared solutes in effluents (E) based on the formula Kd=(ExQE)/P.Results Clearances of NO,UN,Cr were greater than those of IL-6,IL-10,TNF-α,LP during the treatment of CVVHDF.Conclusion CVVHDF could effectively reduce the levels of various solutes in the development of MODS by convection and absorption.

Objective To explore the best procurement technology for cadaveric donor nephrectomy. Methods Clinical data of 1 439 donors nephrectomy in the past 24 years were retrospected.Bilateral nephrectomy,en bloc removal of both kidneys and en bloc removal with in situ cooling both kidneys were adopted in different periods of time.Operation time(OT),hot ischemia time(HIT),cold ischemia time(CIT),total ischemia time(TIT), renal graft beginning to produce urine time after revascularization(UT),renal function recovery time(RRT), damage rate(DR),quantity of preservation solution(PS), rate of acute tubular necrosis(ATN),primary non function(PNF) and poor perfusion of donor kidney(PPK) were observed and comparad among the 3 techniques. Results 216 cases were accomplished by bilateral nephrectomy and 432 kidneys were procured.1 134 cases were accomplished by en bloc removal and 2 264 kidneys were procured(4 cases had only one kidney each).Eighty nine cases were accomplished by en bloc removal with in situ cooling and 178 kidneys were procured. HIT of these three techniques (bilateral nephrectomy,en bloc removal and en bloc removal with in situ cooling) were 8.22?3.01min?5.35?1.88min?1.89?0.92min ( P 0.05).UT were ( 28.24 ?10.65)min,(22.72?8.35)min,(9.26? 10.95 )min.RRT were (9.98?6.84)d,( 7.59 ?6.35)d,(4.91? 7.68 )d.ATN were 15.40%,7.31%,3.98%( P

Objective To optimize the preparation of high-efficiency galactocylated poly-L-lysine (Gal-PLL) ligand of the asialoglycoprotein receptor in liver, providing premise and foundation for upper preparation of ultrasound contrast agent of liver targeted nanoscale perfluorocarbon microballoon and the liver targeted molecular imaging. Methods Chemical reactions of reductive amination were carried out on group A and group B according to different proportions of reaction component. Each group was subdivided into three subgroups. In group A, three different molar ratios of D-galactose and poly-L-lysine (PLL) were compounded respectively with equivalent and sufficient reductant borohydride. In group B, identical molar ratios of D-galactose and PLL were compounded respectively with three unequal reductants borohydride. Products of each group were separated and purified by sephadex column to acquire different molecular weight distributions and the results were analyzed. Results In the condition of identical reductant, the peak curve of compound's molecular weight appeared earlier when D-galactose decreased properly. In the condition of identical molar ratio of D-galactose and PLL,the peak curve of compound's molecular weight appeared also earlier when reductant decreased properly. When the molar ratio of D-galactose and reductant was 1∶1, the peak curve of compound Gal-PLL and free components was more obvious, and the quantity of compound Gal-PLL increased to maximum. Conclusions In the condition of identical reductant, coupling effect of D-galactose and PLL increased when D-galactose decreased properly. In the condition of identical molar ratio of D-galactose and PLL, coupling effect was better when reductant decreased properly. When the molar ratio of D-galactose and reductant was 1∶1, coupling effect of them was the best. The coupling of D-galactose and PLL was related to not only the proportion of D-galactose and PLL, but also the proportion of D-galactose and reductant.

Objective To compare the graft function of 2 methods of kidney harvesting,the modified method of combined liver and kidney procurement and rapid en bloc kidney procurement. Methods The clinical data of 220 cadaveric renal transplantation recipients were collected(12 months follow-up),174 cases from en bloc kidney procurement and 46 from combined liver and kidney procurement.The average harvesting time,the incidence of renal vein injury,1 year kidney survival and incidence of acute rejection were compared between the two methods.Results In average harvesting time and incidence of renal vein injury,the en bloc kidney procurement were better than the method of combined liver and kidney procurement.However,the method of combined liver and kidney procurement was better than the en bloc kidney procurement in 1 year kidney survival,1 year incidence of acute rejection and average warm ischemia time.There was no difference in 1 year survival of patients and 24 h,1 week and 1 year graft function after transplantation. Conclusion Although the method of combined liver and kidney procurement is better than the en bloc kidney procurement in 1 year kidney survival and 1 year incidence of acute rejection,there is no difference between the 2 methods in 1 year survival of patients and graft function after transplantation.
