Objective To study the effects and clinical significance of plasma thromboxane B2(TXB2), platelet alpha granule membrance protein-140(GMP-140), 6-Keto-PGF1?(6-K-PGF1?), endothelins(ET), tissue type plasminogen activator(tPA) and plaminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1) in patients with cerebral arteriosclerisis and cerebral thrombosis. Methods Plasma TXB2 ,GMP-140,6-K-PGFla and ET levels were determined by ra-dioimmuno-assay. Plasma tPA and PA1 were determined by the chromogenic peptide substrate method in controls and in patients with cerebral arteriosclerisis and cerebral thrombosis. Results The levels of plasma TXB2 and GMP-140 were significantly higher in patients with cerebral arteriosclerisis and cerebral thrombosis than in the control group(P0.05) .The levels of tPA and tPA/PAI were significantly lower in patients with cerebral arteriosclerisis and cerebral thrombosis than in controls. Although the PAI level increased in patients with cerebral arteriosclerisis and cerebral thrombosis,no difference was found in statistics. Conclusions Activation of platelets, injury of endothelial cell and decreased activity of fibrinolysis in patients with cerebrovascular disease may be involved in the development of these diseases. Appropriate treatment should be adopted on the above abnormality.

Objective To investigate the effect of propofol on the activation of NF-?B and the expression of Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 gene in cerebral cortex after transient focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and the possible mechanism. Methods Ninety healthy male Wistar rats aged 3-4 months weighing 250-300g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=30 each) : group Ⅰ sham operation; group Ⅱ I/R and group Ⅲ propofol + I/R. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal chloral hydrate 300 mg?kg-1. Left common, internal and external carotid arteries (CCA, ICA, ECA) were exposed. Middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was produced by inserting a nylon thread, 0.26-0.28 mm in diameter and 4.0 cm in length into ICA and advancing it cranially until resistance was felt. After 2 h MCAO the nylon thread was withdrawn to allow reperfusion. In propofol group propofol 100 mg?kg-1 was given IP 10 min before MCAO. The animals were decapitated at 2, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 72 h of reperfusion (n=5 at each time point in each group) . Their brains were immediately removed for determination of translocation of NF-?B in the neurons (by immuno-histochemistry) and expression of NF-?B in cerebral cortex (by Western blotting). The expression of Bcl-2 mRNA and Caspase-3 mRNA in cerebral cortex was determined by in situ hybridization. Neurological deficit was scored and microscopic examination of ischemic cerebral cortex was performed at 24 h of reperfusion. Results In I/R group (Ⅱ) NF-?B was significantly translocated from cytoplasm into the nucleus of the neurons in the ischemic cerebral cortex during 2-24 h of reperfusion while in non-ischemic cortex NF-?B was confined to the cytoplasm. The expression of NF-?B, Bcl-2 mRNA and Caspase-3 mRNA was significantly higher in ischemic cortex than in non-ischemic cortex. Neurologic deficit scores were higher in I/R group than in sham-operation group. Microscopic examination showed congestion and edema of ischemic cerebral cortex and degeneration and necrosis of the neurons in I/R group. In group Ⅲ propofol pretreatment significantly inhibited the translocation of NF-?B, decreased expression of NF-?B and Caspase-3 mRNA and increased Bcl-2 mRNA expression as compared with I/R group (Ⅱ) . Neurologic dificit and histologic damage induced by I/R were significantly ameliorated by propofol pretreatment. Conclusion Propofol pretreatment can inhibit apoptosis of neurons induced by I/R by inhibiting the activation of NF-B, up-regulating Bcl-2 gene and down-regulating Caspase-3 gene.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect of adenosine A1 receptor agonist R( - )-N6-(2-phenylisopropyl)-adenosine (R-PIA) administered into the brainstem medial pontine reticular formation (mPRF) and the underlying mechanism. Methods Sixty male SD rats aged 8-10 weeks weighing 250-300 g were used in this study. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 10% chloral hydrate 300 mg?kg-1 .A 24-gauge stainless steel cannula was inserted into mPRF on one side using a stereotaxic apparatus. One week after operation the animals were randomly divided into 12 groups ( n=5 each) : groupⅠcontrol; groupⅡR-PIA 0.5?g; groupⅢR-PIA 1.0?g; groupⅣR-PIA 2.0?g; groupⅤtheophylline (an adenosine receptor antagonist) 5.0?g; groupⅥ8-cyclopentyl-1 ,3-dipropylxanthine (DPCPX, an adenosine A, receptor antagonist) 1.0?g; groupⅦglibenclamide (an ATP-sensitive K+ channel blocker) 5.0?g; groupⅧ4-aminopyridine (4-AP, a voltage dependent K+-channel blocker) 5.0?g; groupⅨtheophylline 5.0?g + R-PIA 2.0?g; groupⅩDPCPX 1.0?g + R-PIA 2.0?g; groupⅪglibenclamide 5.0?g + R-PIA 2.0?g and groupⅫ4-AP 5.0?g + R-PIA 2.0?g. All the drugs were injected into mPRF in 0.3?l of normal saline. In groupⅨ-ⅫR-PIA 2.0?g was administered 15 min after pretreatment with theophylline, DPCPX, glibenclamide or 4-AP. Analgesia was determined using the tailflick latency (TFL) (the time between the onset of the radiant heat stimulus and voluntary tail withdrawal) at 5, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 min after R-PIA injection into mPRF. The pain threshold was expressed as percentage of the maximal possible effect ( MPE) : MPE = (TFL after drug - baseline TFL)/( 10.0 -baseline TFL)?100% .Results R-PIA 0.5-2.0?g injected into mPRF produced significant analgesia in a dose-dependent manner. Pretreatment with theophylline or DPCPX completely reversed the analgesic effect of R-PIA while pretreatment with glibenclamide or 4-AP only partially reversed the analgesic effect of R-PIA.Conclusion R-PIA administered into mPRF produces analgesia through activation of both ATP-sensitive and voltage-dependent K+ -channel in mPRF.

Objective To evaluate the role of alpha4 beta2 neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in the inhibition of synaptic long-term potentiation (LTP) by isoflurane in the CA1 area of rat hippocampal slices.Methods Hippocampal slices (400 μm thick) were prepared from the brains of adult male SD rats, 2 months old, weighing 200-250 g, anesthetized with ether and decapitated. The slices were incubated in artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF) at room temperature for at least 2 h before use. Seventy slices were randomly divided into 10 groups ( n = 7 each): Ⅰ LTP group in which the slices were perfused with aCSF; Ⅱ , Ⅲ and Ⅳ group in which the slices were perfused with aCSF containing isoflurane 0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 mmol/L respectively (group Ⅰ1-3 );Ⅴ and Ⅵ group in which the slices were perfused with aCSF containing epibatidine 0.1 and 1.0 μmol/L respectively (group E1.2 ); Ⅶ group epibatidine 0.1 μmol/L + isoflurane 0.25 mmol/L (group E1 + I2 ); Ⅷgroup epibatidine 1.0 μmol/L + isoflurane 0.25 mmol/L (group E2 + I2); Ⅸ group DHβE 0.1 μmol/L (group D); Ⅹ group DHβE 0.1 μmol/L + isoflurane 0.125 mmol/L (group D + I1 ). Population spikes (PS) were recorded for at least 30 min before LTP in each group. For LTP induction, high-frequency stimulation (HFS) was applied to the Schaffer collateral-commissural pathway of hippocampus and maintained for 15 min using a stimulating electrode.The changes in PS amplitude were analyzed at 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 and 60 min after HFS in each group. Results Compared with group LTP, the PS amplitude was significantly decreased after HFS in group I1 ,I2, I3 , D, D + I1 and E1 + I2 ( P ＜ 0.05), while increased after HFS in group E1 .2 ( P ＜ 0.05 ), but no significant change was found after HFS in group E2 + I2 ( P ＞ 0.05). The PS amplitude was significantly decreased after HFS in group D + I1 compared with group I1 (P ＜ 0.05). The PS amplitude was significantly increased after HFS in group E1 + I2 and F2 + I2 compared with group I2 ( P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusion Isoflurane inhibits LTP induction via inhibiting the activation of alpha4 beta2 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in rat hippocampus.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of “Shamrock” ultrasound images?guided lumbar sympathetic ganglion blockade ( LSGB) . Methods Sixty patients of both sexes, aged 18-60 yr, weighing 50-70 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠorⅡ, undergoing unilater?al LSGB, were divided into groupⅠ ( n=30) and group Ⅱ ( n=30) using a random number table. In group Ⅰ, unilateral LSGB was performed at the L2 level under ultrasound guidance with paramedian trans?verse scanning. In groupⅡ, unilateral LSGB was performed at the L2 level under ultrasound guidance with“Shamrock” ultrasound images. After final needle position was confirmed, 2% lidocaine 6?0 ml was ad?ministered in each patient. At 20 min before and after LSGB, the visual analogue scale scores and skin temperature of the big toe of the affected foot were recorded, and the successful blockade and visibility of important paravertebral structures on ultrasound images were recorded during puncture. Results The visu?al analogue scale scores were significantly lower, and the skin temperature on the affected side was signifi?cantly higher after LSGB than before LSGB in both groups ( P<0?05) . The important paravertebral struc?tures such as erector spinae, quadratus lumborum, psoas major, transverse process of L2 vertebrae, and the curved edge of L2 vertebrae were visible in both groups. The visibility rate of the inferior vena cava or ab?dominal aorta on ultrasound images and the success rate of blockade were significantly lower in group Ⅰthan in group Ⅱ (P<0?01). Conclusion Compared with paramedian transverse scanning, LSGB has some advantages such as real?time monitoring, higher success rate of blockade, better efficacy and avoiding damage to great vessels when performed under “Shamrock” ultrasound image guidance.
