Chinese Journal of Pancreatology 2008;8(3):169-172
Objective To investigate the effect of aminoguanidine and tienam on bacterial translocation in mice with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) and the preventive and curative effect on pancreatic infection. Methods 50 SD mice were randomly divided into 5 groups, including group A: normal control (n=10), group B: ANP group (n=10), group C: aminoguanidine treatment group (n=10), group D: tienam treatment group (n=10), and group E: aminoguanidine plus tienam treatment group (n=10). ANP was induced by intrapancreatic injection of 5% sodium tanrocholate (2.5 ml/kg). Aminoguanidine (100 mg/kg) was injected intraperitioneally 30 minutes after ANP induction, tienam (60 mg/kg) was injected intraperitioneally 6 hours after ANP induction. The mice were killed at 48 hours, and serum amylase, serum D- lactate, pancreatic MPO were measured. Pathological alterations in the pancreas were examed. The pancreas, liver, blood, mesenteric lymph node and ascites were collected for microbiological study. Results In group C and E, the levels of serum amylase were 91173.30±199.73) U/L and (1075.00±200.40) U/L; the serum D-lactate were (7.165±1.2533) μg/ml and (6.980±1.060)μg./ml; the pancreatic MPO were (0.8035±0.0711) U/g wet film and (0.7765±0.0843 ) U/g wet film; the average bacterial positive rates were 20% and 16%. In group B, the serum amylase was (2234.60±692.06 )U/L;the serum D-lactate was (12.408±1.779)μg,/ml, the pancreatic MPO was (1.5942±0.1965) U/g wet film; the average bacterial positive rate were 60%. The differences between group C, E and group B were statistically significant (P< 0.05). In group D, the pancreatic MPO was (0.8002±0.0603 ) U/g wet film and the the average bacterial positive rate was 18%, and they were statistically different when compared with those of group B (P±0.05). While in group D, the serum amylase and D-lactate was not statistically different when compared with those of group B (P>0.05). There were lamellar necrosis in the parenchyma, hyperaemia and leukocytic infiltrate in the pancreatic mesenchyma in the ANP group, while no leukocytic infiltrating in group C, D, E was found. Conclusions The aminoguanidine and tienam might decrease gut bacterial translocation and prevent pancreatic infection in ANP.

ObjectiveAn input system was designed to solve the current problems of slow creation of electronic health record caused by the difficulty of resident information input.MethodsThe system,based on the Android platform,was designed to collect and save information by using PDA devices,and to send the information to the remote receiver over the wireless network with the hybrid encryption of DES and RSA.The receiver saved the information into the relational database after decryption.ResultsThe system saved acquisition time greatly compared to the traditional method.The transmission speed,security and reception rate of the system could well satisfy the requirements of information collection.ConclusionThe system provides a better way to solving the problems of heavy workload,low efficiency and high error rate in information collection,and will play an important role in practical life.

Objective To investigate the stromal cell derived factor 1 α (SDF-1 α) and chemokine CXC motif receptor 4 (CXCR4) axis using acupoint electroacupuncture (EA) on the brains of rats after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion.Methods Ninety-eight Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into a control group (8 rats),a model group (50 rats),and an EA group (40 rats).The animal model of focal brain ischemia-reperfusion was made with all the rats in the model group and EA group by using the filament occlusion technique.The model and EA groups were subdivided into 5 subgroups according to the sampling time points on the 1 st,3rd,7th,14th or 21st day after ischemia-reperfusion.The EA was administered bilaterally to the rat analog of the Hegu point (LI 4) in the EA group.The model and control groups received no special treatment.Immunohistochemical methods were employed to detect CXCR4-positive cells in the model and EA groups.The expressions of SDF-1α and CXCR4 mRNA were detected with RT-PCR methods in the 3rd,7th and 14th day subgroups.Results With the prolongation of reperfusion,SDF-1α mRNA expression in the model group had a single peak-like increase in the ischemic area of the cerebral cortex.It had increased significantly by the 3rd day,reached its peak value at the 7th day and then decreased gradually.SDF-1α mRNA expression in the EA group behaved similarly,but SDF-1 mRNA expression was significantly higher in the EA group than in the other two.In the model and EA groups CXCR4 mRNA relative values were higher at the 7th and 14th day than at day 3,and the expression at day 14 was significantly greater than at day 7.CXCR4 mRNA values in the EA group were significantly higher than in the model group at each time point.The expression of CXCR4-positive cells began to increase on the 1 st day in the model group,reached its peak value at the 7th day,then decreased by day 14,but it was still strongly expressed highly at the 21st day.Compared with the model group,the expression in the EA group showed the same pattern,but the number of CXCR4-positive cells in EA group was significantly higher.Conclusion Point EA can activate the SDF-1α and CXCR4 axis to promote angiogenesis after focal cerebral ischemia and reperfusion,at least in rats.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a group of regulatory and non-coding RNA molecules which are longer than 200 nucleotides. They are involved in a variety of biological processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis mainly by regulation of gene expression at various levels, including epigenetics, transcription and post-transcription. The evidence has demonstrated that many lncRNAs are dysregulated and closely related to tumorigenesis, progression and prognosis in gastric cancer. Based on an introduction to lncRNAs and the domestic and foreign research status, this review summarizes the function, regulatory mechanisms, potential diagnostic and therapeutic values of lncRNAs in gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of ischemic pre-conditioning(IPC) on the spinal cord injury associated with abdominal aortic cross-clamping. Methods Forty-eight New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into IPC group and ischemic group. The concentrations of endothelin-1(ET-1), prostacyclin(PGI_2) and thromboxane A_2(TXA_2) in spinal cord were measured at six different time intervals, before ischemic, 40 minutes after ischemic, 2 hours,8 hours,24 hours and 72 hours after reperfusion. Neurologic function and pathological changes were documented. Results In IPC group, ET-1 level, TXB_2 level and TXB_2/6-keto-PGF_ 1? ratio were significantly reduced, while 6-keto-PGF1? level was significantly increased compared with that of ischemic group (P
