Objective To evaluate the effect of sevoflurane on myocardial injury induced by hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation (HS/R) in pigs.Methods Twenty-four Bama miniature pigs (12 males, 12 females) , weighing 20-25 kg, aged 3-5 months, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=8 each) using a random number table: sham operation group (group S) , HS/R group and sevoflurane group (group Sev).The left and right femoral arteries and right femoral vein were cannulated for blood pressure monitoring, blood-letting, blood sampling and fluid infusion.HS/R was induced by blood-letting maintaining for 1 h, followed by resuscitation with autologous blood reinfusion and infusion of lactated Ringer's solution 2 times the volume of the blood withdrawn.The pigs in group Sev were exposed to 2％ sevoflurane for 30 min before resuscitation.After cannulation, at 30 min after hemorrhagic shock, before resuscitation, and at 30 min, and 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 h after resuscitation, blood samples were collected from the femoral artery for determination of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) activity and cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentration in serum using an automatic biochemical analyzer.Myocardial specimens were obtained at 3.5 h after resuscitation for detection of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-ot) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) contents (by ELISA) , and phosphor-signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (p-STAT1) expression (by Western blot), and for examination of the pathological changes (with light microscope).Results Compared with S group , the CK-MB activity and cTnI concentration in serum and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly increased, and the expression of p-STAT1 was up-regulated in HS/R and Sev groups (P＜0.05).Compared with HS/R group, the CK-MB activity and cTnI concentration in serum and contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly decreased, and the expression of p-STAT1 was downregulated (P＜0.05) , and the pathological changes of myocardia were alleviated in Sev group.Conclusion Sevoflurane can alleviate HS/R-induced damage to myocardia of pigs, and inhibited STAT1 activity and attenuated inflammatory responses in the myocardium are involved in the mechanism.

Objective To screen 8 series of LY compounds, c-Met tyrosine kinase inhibitors, and evaluate their anti-tumor effects in vitro and in vivo. Methods Preliminary screening was carried out by detecting the c-Met kinase phosphor?ylation inhibition activity of the compounds. CCK-8 assay was adopted for secondary anti-tumor screen of the selected com?pounds using MKN-45, U87MG, Caki-1 and PC-3 cell lines in vitro. The transplanted tumor model of U87MG cells in nude mice was established to evaluate the antitumor activity in vivo. Results Four compounds (LY22, LY25, LY28 and LY32) with better activities were selected by HTRF method, in which LY28 had better inhibitory effect on c-Met than that of Crizo?tinib. The above active compounds showed different degrees of inhibition on the four kinds of target cells (MKN-45, U87MG, Caki-1 and PC-3) detected by CCK-8 method, and the inhibitory effect of LY28 showed the most obvious. Antitumor activi?ty in vivo showed that LY28 can significantly inhibited tumor growth in a dose-dependent manner. The tumor inhibitory rate in high-dose of LY28 was 78.13%. Conclusion The compound LY28 has good antitumor activity in vitro and in vivo, which will be a new tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

BACKGROUND: Blood pressure of children increases with ages, and is related to anthropometric parameters, diet, sports, and other factors. To analyze relative factor of a little high blood pressure of children provides a scientific evidence for prevention and cure of primary hypertension. OBJECTIVE: To investigate correlation between blood pressure and anthropometric parameters among children. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. SETTING: Department of Hygiene of Weifang Medical College. PARTICIPANTS: According to cluster sampling, 1 546 pupils in grade three or four were selected from a primary school for physical examination and questionnaires. Totally 1 508 pupils with complete data were regarded as the subjects.METHODS: Partial correlation analysis was used to analyze correlation between blood pressure and anthropometric parameters among children.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Correlation among anthropometric parameters, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure.RESULTS: ① Correlation coefficients of systolic pressure with sex, age, height, body mass, chest circumference of Peason were 0.078, 0.166, 0.337, 0.313 and 0.304 (P ＜ 0.01). ② Correlation coefficients of diastolic pressure with sex, age, height, body mass, chest circumference of Peason were 0.047, 0.120, 0.268, 0.271 and 0.251 (P ＜ 0.01). ③ After controlling two effect of anthropometric parameters on each other, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure were only correlated with height and chest circumference (P ＜ 0.01), but was not correlated with age, sex and body mass (P ＞ 0.05). CONCLUSION: After controlling the effect of anthropometric parameters on each other, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure of children were positively correlated with height and chest circumference.

Objective To study the biological effects of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (GSPE) on human ovary cancer cells and to explore the molecular mechanism. Methods Human ovary cancer cell line SKOV3 were co-cultured with GSPE solution of the terminal concentrations of 25,50,100,200,400 ?g/ml respectively in 96-well plate. At 24,48,72 h after coculture,the following parameters were detected: cell growth curve,the inhibition rate of SKOV3 cells by MTT assay,DNA cycle by FCM,the apoptosis of SKOV3 by TUNEL and Annexin-V labeling method,the mRNA and protein expressions of survivin by semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively. Results GSPE dose-dependently inhibited the proliferation of the SKOV3 cells. Treated by GSPE,the progress of SKOV3 cells at S stage into G/M stage was inhibited. TUNEL showed that treated by 25 ?g/ml GSPE for 24,48 h,the apoptotic rates of SKOV3 cells were 31.98%,45.78% respectively. Annexin-V showed that after incubation with 25 ?g/ml GSPE for 24 h,the apoptotic rate was 14.68%. The survivin mRNA and protein expressions were both down-regulated. Conclusion GSPE inhibits the proliferation of malignant human ovary cancer cells and induces their apoptosis. Expression of survivin mRNA and protein may be related to cell growth inhibition and to the apoptosis mediated by GSPE in vitro.

AIM: To investigate the antagonistic effect of zinc on hepatic ischemia- reperfusion (HIR) injury and the effect of zinc on the expression of adhesion molecules in rat liver to clarify the mechanisms involved. METHODS: After zinc supplementation (5 ?mol/kg bw,po) , the changes in hepatocellular morphology,ALT and AST activities in serum,MDA levels in serum,and expression of ICAM-1,VCAM-1 in liver of the animals subjected to HIR were examined. RESULTS: The results showed that HIR (30 minutes of ischemia followed by 90 minutes of reperfusion) significantly increased ALT, AST activities and MDA levels in serum. The destruction of hepatic structure was observed in HIR rats. In the mean time, the expression of adhesion molecule was enhanced.After zinc administration, ALT and AST activities in serum and MDA levels in serum were all decreased. The structure of hepatocyte was nearly normal.The further experiment showed that adhesion molecule expression was suppressed.CONCLUSION: These results indicate that zinc may protect liver against ischemia-reperfusion injury by inhibiting the production of free radicals and the expression of adhesion molecule.
