Objective To study the effect of serf-designed multi-organ preservation solution(SMO)on cold-stored rat liver.Methods The rat livers were preserved with SMO solution(group A,n=15),UW solution(group B,n=15)and HC-A solution(group C,n=15),respectively.The livers were transplanted orthotopically after 6-,12-,24-hour preservation.The changes of liver function at hour 12 after transplantation were detected and conditions of the survived rats at day 14 after transplantation were observed.Results There was no morphological change of the livers in group A within 24 houm.The total bilimbin,alaninetransaminase,and hyaluronic acid increased in group A and B as the preservation time increased,but the levels of the 3 indexes of group A were significant lower than those in group C(F=49.027,70.280,34.349,71.532,446.544,303.408,P<0.05).No rat djed in group A 14 days after liver transplantation.Conclusions SMO and UW solution have similar effect on protecting the liver.and the protective effect of the 2 solutioas was better than that of HC-A solution.

Objective To observe whether treatment with cannabidiol (CBD) affect nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced by methionine choline-deficient diet (MCD) in rats and investigate the underlying molecular mechanism. Methods Sixty-three adult male SD rats were randomly divided in to three groups as follows: Control group (rats fed with normal diet), MCD group (rats fed with MCD and MCD+CBD group [rats fed with MCD and treated with cannabidiol, 2mg/(kg.d), i.p.]. Ten weeks later, steatohepatitis and fibrosis were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining, respectively. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were measured by using an automatic biochemical analyzer and hepatic levels of cholesterol and triacylglycerol were determined with kits. Autophagic flux in livers was evaluated by Western blotting. Results Treatment with cannabidiol reduced ratio of liver/body weightratio (4.2%±0.6% versus 3.1%±0.6%, P<0.05), histological scores (4.7±1.1 versus 2.2±0.5, P<0.05) and fibrosis (1.4%±0.4% versus 0.8%±0.3%, P<0.05) in rat livers, lowered levels of ALT (214.5±54.1U/L versus 92.1±36.0U/L, P<0.05) and AST (175.9±55.2U/L versus 70.8±24.9U/L, P<0.05) in serum, attenuated hepatic fat accumulation (cholesterol, 182.4±42.7mmol/mg protein versus 101.0±33.8mmol/mg protein, P<0.05; triglyceride, 71.4±12.5mmol/mg protein versus 38.7±11.1mmol/mg protein, P<0.05), and down-regulated mRNA expression of Col1A1 (2.9±0.4 versus 1.6±0.3, P<0.05) in livers of rats fed with MCD. Furthermore, cannabidiol led to the LC3 turnover (LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-I, 37.1±10.8 versus 71.2±17.1, P<0.05) and p62 decrease (202.4±40.9 versus 125.8±32.7, P<0.05) in the livers of MCD-fed rats. Conclusion Treatment with cannabidiol could relieve MCD-induced NASH in rats, at least in part, by autophagic flux promotion.

Objective To investigate the Mahaim's fibers of the cardiac con duction system (CCS) of human hearts and study their morphological features. Methods The CCS from 165 cases of sudden death without extracardiac causes and tho se from 760 cases of non-cardiac death were sampled using a method established by the authors. Serial sections were prepared for histological observation. Results Mahaim's fibers were discovered in 7 cases, 5 cases were in the sudden dea th group, accounting for 3% in that group, 2 cases were in the non-cardiac deat h group, accounting for 0.26% in that group. All cases belonged to the bundle-ve n tricular branch type. The characteristics of Mahaim's fibers were found to be a s follows. Their transverse diameter was 10~35 microns. The bodies of the Mahaim 's fibers that originated from A-V bundle were slender with nucleus in the middle of the cell. While the shape of cells from the left bundle branch varied accord ing to the origin of the Mahaim's fiber with size enlarging from up downward. B oth types of cells showed abundant lightly stained cytoplasm, similar to A-V bu n dle and left bundle branch cells. The cells were not bifurcated and some of them were surrounded by a thin layer of fibrous tissue. Conclusion Mahaim's fibers are not a rarity and it is an abnormal development of an A-V by-path.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tacrolimus exposure in stable liver transplant recipients converted from FK506 twice a day to Advagraf (tacrolimus extended-release capsules) once daily. Methods This was an open-label, random, control and multi-center study.Eligible patients were 19 to 70 years of age, 6 months post-transplant with stable renal and hepatic function and receiving stable doses of tacrolimus twice a day for 2 weeks prior to enrollment. There were 86 patients in the experimental group and the control group, separately. The average age of experimental group and control group was 46 ± 10 and 49 ± 9, respectively. Patients in experimental group received Advagraf, once daily, and the dose was adjusted according to the drug concentration,and the drug concentration was between 2 to 10 μg/L. The control group given tacrolimus, twice daily, and the drug concentration was between 2 to 10 μg/L. Results The incidence of acute rejection reaction was 1.20 % and 1.18 % respectively in experimental group and control group, and the 95 %confidence interval was -3.25% ~3.31 % and -3.26% ~ 3.34 %, individually. There was 1 case of acute rejection reaction in experimental group and control group, respectively. The patient and organ survival rate was 100%. Sixteen adverse events occurred in 15 patients (17.65 %) of the experimental group, and 10 adverse events occurred in 10 patients (11.63 %) of control group. Severe adverse events relating to the test drug in experimental group occurred in 4 patients (4. 71 %). and 2 patients (2. 33) in control group.Conclision Clinical trials indicated that Advagraf has efficacy and safety profiles similar to those of tacrolimus. The drug is safe and may improve patient compliance.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of FUZHENGJIEDU,a kind of Chinese herb on rats exposed to radon and it's daughter.Methods Twelve male SD rats were exposed with concentration of 40 000 Bq/m3 radon and the exposed dose was 120 work level month (120 WLM),and then all the rats were randomly divided into 2 groups.One group was 120 WLM group (positive control,n=6 ),the other group was FUZHENGJIEDU treatment group (120 WLM exposed rats were given FUZHENGJIEDU 5.0 g every day,n =6),meanwhile 6 rats which lived in the normal environment ( the concentration of radon and it's daughter was lower than 50 Bq/m3 ) as control group.The levels of tumor markers induding carcinoembryonic antigen ( CEA),neuron-specific enolase (NSE),CYFRA21-1 and p53 antibody were tested by ELISA.The rate of p16 gene methylation was measured by methylation-specific PCR (MSP).Results The levels of CEA and NSE in 120 WLM group were (396.62 ± 148.74) and (9.09 ±0.90) μg/L,respectively,significantly higher than those of control group (t =2.583,2.463,P < 0.05).The levels of CEA and NSE in treatment group were (70.89 ±44.71) and (4.31 ±1.37) μg/L,respectively,remarkably lower than those of 120 WLM group (t =2.921,2.526,P <0.05 ).The concentrations of CYFRA21-1 and p53 antibody were not significantly different among the three groups (t =1.713,1.963,P > 0.05 ).The rate of p16 gene methylation in BALF cells in 120 WLM group was 16.67%,but in control group and treatment group did not arise p16 gene methylation in BALF cells.Conclusions FUZHENGJIDU would decrease the levels of CEA and NSE and the rate of p16 gene methylation,and could exert it's protective effect on rats exposed to high concentration of radon.
