2.Protection of sulforaphane against hydrogen peroxide-induced bovine trabecular meshwork cell apoptosis
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2016;34(6):516-521
Background Evidences indicated that oxidative stress damage is an essential pathological process in primary open angle glaucoma.Sulforaphane (SFN) can play an antioxidative stress role to many tissues and cells by activating Nrf2/ARE single pathway.However,whether SFN has a protective role to oxidative stress induced damage of trabecular meshwork cells is still unclear.Objective This study was to investigate the antioxidant effect of SFN against H2O2-induced oxidative damage in bovine trabecular meshwork cells.Methods Trabecular cells were isolated from fresh black bovine eyeballs and primarily cultured and passaged.The third generation of cells were incubated to 96-well dish at a density of 1 ×103/well for 24 hours and divided into 4 groups.The cells were incubated using 100 μl serum-free medium in the blank control group.Oxidative damage models were established by adding 100 μmol/L H2O2(100 μl) in medium in the H2O2 group.The cells were cultured with the medium containing 10 μmol/L SFN (100 μl) in the SFN group,and 100 μl H2O2 at the final concentration of 100 μmol/L was added in the SFN-treated cell medium in the SFN +H2O2 group.The cell vitality in various groups was assayed by using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8).The apoptosis rate of the cells was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI double-staining with flow cytometry.Results Cultured cells showed a spindle shape with uniform size,abundant cytoplasm,numberous pigmented particles and big nucleolus.The relative cell vitality reduced to (67.00± 1.27)% and (80.00±6.25)% in the H2O2 group and SFN+H2O2 group in comparison with 100% in the blank control group,and the cell vitality in the SFN+ H2O2 group was lower than that in the SFN group but higher than that in the H2 O2 group (both at P<0.01).The mean apoptosis rate was (11.33 ±0.77) %,(32.31 ± 1.03) %,(10.44 ±0.68) % and (17.68 ±0.21) % in the blank control group,H2 O2 group,SFN group and SFN+H2O2 group,respectively,showing a significant difference among the groups (F=539.96,P<0.01),and the apoptosis rate in the SFN+H2O2 group was significantly lower than that in the H2O2 group but higher than that in the blank control group and SFN group (all at P<0.01).Conclusions SFN can improve the antioxidative stress ability of trabecular meshwork cells and alleviate the damage induced by oxidative stress.

Objective To investigate the effect of 3-n-butylphthalide (NBP) on learning and memory abilities in vascular demensia (VD) rats. Methods VD model rats was established by two-vessel method. 60 3-month-old Wistar male rats were randomly divided into VD group, sham-operate group and NBP group. Rats in NBP group were given NBP 120 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ,VD and sham-operate group were given equal quality vegetable oil.Morris water maze was used to assess the learning and memory abilities in each group and HE staining was used to observe the hippocampus morphology of the rats. Results The escape latency in hidden plat test was( (38.34 ±2.46 ) s, ( 14.83 ± 3.77s ), ( 75.74 ± 6.33 ) s ) and the original platform quadrant time was ( ( 26.45 ± 4.66 ) s,(35.21 ±3.78)s, ( 18.67 ±5.39)s) in NBP group,sham-operate group and VD group respectively. Compared to VD group, NBP group had obviously decreased escape latency in hidden plat test, increased original platform quadrant time and distinctly decreased the necrosis of the neurons in HE dyeing. Conclusion NBP can improve the learning and memory deficits in VD rats.

Free amino acids were analysed in 90 human milk samples during the first 6 weeks of lactation in Nanjin city. Glutatnic acid was the most and taurine was the second abundant component of the free amino acids in human milk. The free essential amino acids were highest in colostral milk and declined with advancing lactation. The possible roles of free amino acids in human milk for feeding infant in the first stage was discussed. The results of this study support that breast milk is beneficial for infants and suggest that the formulas should be supplemented with taurine.

The rat c-erbA? cDNA fragment was used as probe to investigate the expression of T3 receptor gene in brain, heart and kidney in hyperthyroid and hypothyroid rats. There were three types of c-erbA? mRNA-6. 0kb, -5. 0kb and -2. 0kb in all examined tissues. In heart and kidney, the levels of c-erbA? mRNA decreased in hyperthyroid rats and increased in hypothyroid rats. It might be a compensatory mechanism. In brain, however, the level of c-erbA? mRNA was unaffected by thyroid status. The results suggest that the T3 receptor gene may have an auto-regulatory mechanism in rat heart and kidney under different thyroid status.
