Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2007;0(09):-
Objective:To investigate the role of AngⅡreceptors(AT1 and AT2) in the left ventricular hypertrophic process and its mechanisms through detecting the expression of AngⅡreceptors(AT1 and AT2) in hypertrophic cardiomyocyte induced by pressure overload in rats. Methods:Fourteen Male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into two groups: sham group(n=7),and operation group(n=7). Left ventricular hypertrophy model was well established after abdominal aortic stenosis in each group.The expression of AT1 and AT2 was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC) and RT-PCR,respectively. Indexes of left ventricular hypertrophy,including myocardial fibrosis,LVMI,cross-sectional area and apoptosis index(APOI),were also measured. Results: SBP,DBP,MBP,LVMI,and cardiomyocyte CSA,APOI,level of plasma AngⅡand expression of AT1 and AT2 in operation group were markedly increased as compared with sham group. Conclusion:Expression of cardiomyocyte AT1 and AT2 receptors were increased significantly in rat of left ventricular hypertrophy,which indicated that AT1 and AT2 receptors both participate in the process of left ventricular hypertrophy but they may play antagonism effects.

Acta Anatomica Sinica 1953;0(01):-
Objective To explore the structural foundation of transport pathway of pineal secretions from the pineal body to the cerebrospinal fluid of subarachnoid space. Methods The pineal capsule of the superficial pineal body of 1.5-month and 12-month old rats was observed under scanning electron microscope(SEM).Results Cribriform and trumpet-shaped epithelial stomata were scattered on the pineal capsule.Cribriform epithelial stomata were seen mostly in 1.5-month old rats.They were composed of many round pores which pierced through the full-thickness of the periphery of the capsule endothelium.The pores were dense and ranged from 200-500 nm in diameter;trumpet-shaped epithelial stomata were seen in both 1.5-month and 12-month old rats.Trumpet-shaped epithelial stomata were located among epithelial cells of the pineal capsule.They were round or elliptic in shape and ranged from 1-4 ?m in diameter.On the surface of the pineal capsule,many secretory granules were observed.They were spherule and 8001 000 nm in diameter.Conclusion The releasing pattern of secretory granules of the pineal body could include a releasing of the whole membrane;the pineal secretions may be transported directly from the pineal body to the cerebrospinal fluid of subarachnoid space through the epithelial stomata of the pineal capsule.

BACKGROUND: At present, the basic molecular etiological mechanism and core regulatory network of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) remains uncertain, and there is not an ideal measure for early diagnosis of DVT. OBJECTIVE: To study the underlying impact of cathepsin L/G in DVT rat model. METHODS: DVT rat models (n = 50) were established by clamping both femoral vein in three different positions within 3 seconds with mosquito forceps and fixing with cast. According to different observation phases and biological situations of the femoral vein thrombosis, model rats were divided into thrombogenesis group, pre-thrombogenesis group and non-thrombogenesis group. An additional 10 normal rats served as control group. Femoral vein was obtained at corresponding time points to exact total RNA. After a gene chip-based screening, the data of gene expression were further dissected by real-time PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSUON: Gene chip hybridization analysis results demonstrated that differential expression of cathepsin L/G gene was significant among groups, and the expression was greatest in the thrombogenesis group, followed by pre-thrombogenesis and non-thrombogenesis groups, which was significantly greater than the control group (P < 0.05). Real-time PCR analysis results were consistent with gene chip hybridization analysis results. These indicate that DVT is associated with an increase in expression of cathepsin L/G in local venous vascular wall, and they may be candidate molecular markers for early diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis.

BACKGROUND:The molecular mechanism of traumatic deep vein thrombosis is complex.Numerous studies focus on clinical observation and epidemiology,but its molecular mechanism has not been a new breakthrough.OBJECTIVE:By use of gene array technology,this study was aimed to study the expression changes of matrix metalloproteinases in rat models of traumatic deep vein thrombosis,and to explore the roles of matrix metalloproteinases in traumatic deep venous thrombosis.METHODS:A total of 150 SD rats,SPF grade,of 8-12 weeks old,body weight of 250-300 g,were divided at random into normal control group (n=10) and model group (n=140).Rat traumatic deep venous thrombosis models were set up by clamping the femoral vein and fixing the bilateral hind limbs,and the fixation of hip spica with plaster bandage was conducted in each group.Then rats were divided into 7 subgroups:post-traumatic 0.5 hours,post-traumatic 2.5 hours (initial period of thrombosis),post-traumatic 25 hours (thrombogenesis at thrombotic crest-time),post-traumatic 25 hours non-thrombogenesis at the thrombotic crest-time),post-traumatic 72 hours (thrombus resolution),post-traumatic 72 hours thrombus insolution) and post-traumatic 168 hours (nonthrombosis).At the corresponding phasess,the femoral vein tissues were incised,and total RNA of femoral vein was extracted using Trizol one-step method.Applying Genechip Rat Genome 430 2.0 genechips,the gene expressions in femoral vein were detected in different groups.The rate of traumatic deep venous thrombogenesis and non-thrombogenesis,the rate of thrombi solution and insolution were observed;the expressions of matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases at different time phases was detected by gene array data analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Three model rats died and the remaining 147 rats were involved in the final analysis.At the post-traumatic 25 hours,the rate of thrombogenesis was 50.5% and nonthrombogenesis was 49.5%.To the post-traumatic 168 hours,the rate of thrombus solution was 56.7% and thrombus insolution was 43.3%.Both matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases exhibited differential expressions in the course of traumatic deep venous thrombosis.Under the thrombus insolution state,matrix metalloproteinases continued to show a high expression,tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase expression was down-regulated in the thrombus formation,was significantly inhibited in the thrombus insoluUon process.In the process of traumatic deep vein thrombosis and insolution,matrix metalloproteinase was closely related to traumatic deep vein thrombosis,the matrix metalloproteinase/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases are likely to affect the biological state of thrombosis.
