AIMTo investigate the antiarrhythmic effect of jumi (JM) extraction.

METHODSThe conventional antiarrhythmic methods were used.

RESULTSAdministration of JM extraction reduced the occurrence of ventricular fibrillation induced by chloroform in a dose-dependent manner in mice. Quinidine significantly decreased the number of ventricular premature beats and ventricular tachycardia, shortened the duration of arrhythmia in aconitine-treated rats. But JM extraction had no effect on aconitine-induced arrhythmia. Compared with control, arrhythmia score was lower in ischemia/reperfusion rats which pretreated with 2.0 g/kg of JM extraction.

CONCLUSIONJM extraction has obvious protection effects in chloroform- and ischemia-induced arrhythmia, but has no effect in aconitine-induced arrhythmia.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of synchronous perfusion of specific respiratory chain complex IV inhibitor sodium azide (NaN3) in brain on rat ventromedial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and acetylcholine (ACh) and choline (Ch) contents in hippocampal extra-cellular fluid, and establish the AD rat model induced by mitochondrial acute injury.

METHODThe synchronous dual-probe dual-channel brain microdialysis sampling technology was applied to synchronously perfuse modified Ringer's solution containing NaN3 (50 micro mol L-1) and neostigmine (2 micro mol L-1) into mPFC and hippocampus of conscious, freely moving normal rats, and continuously collect dialysates from different encephalic areas. Dynamic contents of ACh and Ch were determined by high performance liquid chromatography-post-column immobilized enzyme reactor-electrochemical process.

RESULTACh and Ch contents in mPFC extracellular fluid of normal rats were higher than that in hippocampus. During the process of perfusion, NaN3 could significantly reduce ACh in mPFC/hippocampal extra-cellular fluid, but remarkably increase Ch, and constantly inhibit the recovery of ACh and Ch contents in mPFC/hippocampus.

CONCLUSIONThe synchronous perfusion of NaN3in rat mPFC and hippocampus can injure functions of the cholinergic nerve projection area, and cause the acute AD model with ACh and Ch metabolic disorders. This model can be used in pathogenetic and pharmacological studies.

The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on iron-induced toxicity in rat hearts. Langendorff perfused rat heart and enzymatically isolated cardiomyocytes were used. It was shown that lipophilic Fe-HQ reduced the contractile amplitude, velocity and end-diastolic cell length in the cardiomyocyte, while the left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), +/-dp/dt(max), heart rate and coronary flow showed biphasic alterations, which increased in the first 2 min and then was followed by a decline in isolated perfused rat heart; the contents of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase (CK) in the coronary effluent and the malondialdehyde (MDA) in the myocardium were increased. L-arginine (L-Arg), an NO precursor, reduced the contractile amplitude and end-diastolic cell length in the cardiomyocyte; but reversibly increased LVDP, +/-dp/dt(max), and coronary flow in isolated perfused rat heart. Pretreatment with L-Arg aggravated the Fe-HQ-induced decrease in contractile amplitude, velocity and end-diastolic cell length in the cardiomyocyte; LVDP, +/-dp/dt(max), heart rate and coronary flow were significantly reduced in the perfused heart, and the levels of LDH and CK increased in the coronary effluent. In contrast, the NOS inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) blocked the Fe-HQ induced change in contractile amplitude, velocity and end-diastolic cell length in the cardio- myocyte; it inhibited the decrease in LVDP, LVEDP and +/-dp/dt(max), and reduced the LDH and CK. Removing endothelial cells in coronary vessels attenuated the increase in LVDP and +/-dp/dt(max) at the beginning of Fe-HQ perfusion. It is suggested that L-Arg aggravates the iron-induced cardiac dysfunction, NO can mediate the iron-induced toxicity in heart, and endothelial cells in coronary vessels play an important role in the early stage of the effect of iron.

Schmallenberg virus (SBV), a novel orthobunyavirus, was first isolated in 2011. SBV preferentially infects the central nervous system of cattle and sheep and causes fever, diarrhea, a drop in milk yields, congenital malformations and stillbirths. Until June 2014, more than 200 scientific publications regarding SBV have been published. Although more than 20 articles on SVB were published in China, most of these articles provided only a brief introduction of the disease without fully discussing the associated disease characteristics. As a new disease, it has been made a focus of the National Research Center for Exotic Animal Diseases at the China Animal Health and Epidemiology Center. In this review, in order to provide a reference for research into SBV in China, we have reviewed the state of current research progress on the etiology, diagnosis and epidemiology of SBV, and vaccine development.

In recent years, with the rapid development of economy and the improvement of people.s lifestyle and level, the incidence of diabetes has been sharply rising. According to the epidemiological survey, 60-75％ of diabetic patients are accompanied by depressive symptoms, and even 10-35％ of them are severely depressed, and the risk of diabetes in depressed patients is twice that of normal people. Diabetes mellitus with depression (DD) seriously affects the quality of patients. life, which has attracted more and more attention. At present, the drugs to treat DD are mainly chemical drugs.Due to the single target, strong drug dependence and obvious side effects, etc., it is a tough problem to be solved urgently in clinical practice to find a treatment drug with multiple targets, low toxicity and little side effects. The research group found that the invigorating qi and nourishing blood formula Danggui-BuxueDecoction (DBD) has a relatively exact effect on DD.

Aim To identify the potential biomarkers associated with carbon tetrachloride(CCl 4 )-induced a-cute hepatic injury in rats and explore the therapeutic effect of Hugan Tablets(HGT). Methods The model was established by intraperitoneal injection of CCl4 in oil(1 : 1,V/ V)with a dosage of 1 mL·kg - 1 body weight to rats once. The levels of aspartate aminotrans-ferase(AST),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),alka-line phosphatase (ALP ) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)in serum of rats were determined. Moreover,a proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1 H-NMR)based metabonomic approach in combination with multivariate data analysis was applied to demonstrate CCl4-induced acute hepatic injury metabolic perturbations in rat urine and feces and identify the corresponding metabolic bio-markers. The intervention effect of HGT was evaluated based on the changes of metabolic phenotype and po-tential biomarkers related to acute hepatic injury. Re-sults The levels of AST,ALT,ALP and LDH in ser-um of rats with acute hepatic injury were significantly reduced by administration of HGT,respectively. The disturbed metabolic state associated with CCl4-induced acute hepatic injury in rat urine and feces could be re-stored by HGT. Meanwhile,five potential biomarkers (2-oxoglutarate,citrate,creatinine,trimethylamine N-oxide,hippurate)in rat urine and three potential bio-markers(butyrate,glucose,uracil)in rat feces related to acute hepatic injury were reversed by administration of HGT,respectively. Conclusion HGT exerts pro-tective effects against CCl4-induced acute hepatic inju-ry in rats,which is probably mediated by regulation of tricarboxylic acid cycle and gut microbiota metabolism.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of bone scintigraphy in the preoperative diagnosis of sacral tumor. Methods Preoperative 99Tcm-methylene diphosphonate (MDP) whole body bone scintigraphy was performed in total of 103 patients with sacral tumor for whole body survey and radionuclide uptake in the sacral tumor. Of these 103 patients,39 had SPECT. According to the osteoblastic reaction in bone SPECT studies,patterns of tumor with a "hot" lesion was defined as type Ⅰ,a "cold" lesion accompanied with partial uptake was defined as type Ⅱ,a purely "cold" lesion was defined as type Ⅲ,and a "cold" lesion with marginal uptake which produced "doughnut sign" was defined as type Ⅳ. Imaging interpretation was correlated with the final pathologic diagnosis. Results Of the 103 patients,18 ( 17.5% ) had polyostotic involvement. About 46.6% (48/103 ) in planar and 84.6% ( 33/39 ) in SPECT showed decreased uptake at sacrum. Of the bone metastatic patients (n =21 ) ,12 (51.7%) had sole metastasis to sacrum. Tumor with type Ⅰ (6/6) or type Ⅱ (16/19) uptake was likely to be a malignancy,whereas type Ⅲ uptake tended to occur in the benign disease in those patients without polyostotic involvement( 5/7 ),and type Ⅳ was all appeared in giant cell tumors( n = 5 ). Conclusions Preoperative bone scintigraphy is useful in examination of polyostotic involvement for the patients with sacral tumor,but it is limited for diagnosing isolated sacral metastatic disease. Tumor uptake on bone scintigraphy can be helpful in differential diagnosis of sacral tumor.

Objective To investigate the value of diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)in predicting delayed encephalopathy of the rabbits brain after carbon monoxide(CO)poisoning.Methods Sixty healthy rabbits were put into self-made poisoning cabinet and were poisoned by inhalation of CO.Aeration of CO was stopped when the rabbits became comatous,and the cabinet was kept airpoof for 6 h.The rabbits underwent MRI before poisoning,at 1 h,3 d,5 d,7 d,15 d,30 d,45 d,and 60 d after poisoning respectively. Axial and sagittal T_2WI,axial T_1WI and DWI were performed.In the rabbits that did not show symptoms of delayed encephalopathy,the observation was discontinued on the 60~(th)day.In the rabbit that showed the symptoms,the observation was discontinued on the 30~(th)——45~(th)day.The changing pattern of cortical ADC values before and after CO poisoning was observed and its relationship with delayed encephalopathy was investigated.Results In the group without delayed encephalopathy(15 rabbits),the ADC value at 1 h after poisoning[(7.58?0.36)?10~(-4)mm~2/s]decreased significantly compared with the pre-poisoning value[(8.02?0.35)?10~(-4)mm~2/s](q=0.4441,P0.05).In the group with delayed encephalopathy(15 rabbits),the ADC value at 1 h after poisoning [(7.40?0.32)?10~(-4)mm~2/s]decreased significantly compared with the pre-poisoning value[(8.08? 0.32)?10~(-4)mm~2/s](q=0.6728,P
