Objective To establish animal models of diffuse axonal injury (DAI) and discuss the early functional MRI findings.Methods Twenty-five adult white rabbits were divided into control group (n =5),mild DAI group and severe DAI group (n =6) according to random number.Mild DAI group was subdivided into mild DAI 3 h (n =6),1 day (n =4) and 1 week (n =4) groups.Routine MRI and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) were performed.Parameters measured were fractional anisotropy (FA),apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC),axial diffusivity (AD) and radical diffusivity (RD).Results Significantly increased FA (P＜0.01) and decreased ADC (P＜0.05) and RD (P＜0.01) were detected in severe DAI group compared to control group,but there was no significant variation in AD between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Each parameter remained almost unchanged in mild DAI 3 h group and mild DAI 1 week group,but FA was increased (P ＜ 0.01) and RD decreased (P ＜ 0.05) in mild DAI 1 day group,with no changes of ADC and AD.Conclusion DTI is a sensitive way to detect the occurrence and development of DAI and can provide referential images for early DAI diagnosis.

Objective To research the influences of gambogic acid on rats'cytochrome P450 isoforms by using the Cocktail probe drugs. Methods Rats were randomly divided into several groups. One group of rats received gambogic acid solution containing 0.5 %CMC-Na (2 mg?mL-1,once per day) orally for six days. At the same time,the rats in the other group received 0.5 %CMC-Na solution serving as blank control group. Blood samples were collect at different time point,and the plasma concentration of cocktail probe drugs was determined by HPLC. Results There was insignificant difference of caffeine and dapsone metabolism between the gambogic acid group and the blank group,but the chlorzoxazone was eliminated faster in the gambogic acid group,and the half life of chlozoxazone was shorter. Conclusion Gambogic acid has no significant influence on the cytochrome P450 isoforms of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4,but has an induction on the CYP2E1.

Objective To study the protective effects of aqueous extract and alcohol-soluble extract of Isodon lophanthoides var.gerardianus (Benth.)Hara (ILVG) on immunity hepatic injury induced by concanavalin A (Con A) in mice.Methods One hundred and eight NIH mice were allocated into normal control group,model group,ILVG groups of aqueous extract and alcohol-soluble extract (low-,middle-and high-dosage),and bifendate group randomly.In the experimental groups,mice received either ILVG aqueous extract or alcohol-soluble extract (18.20 g?kg-1,9.10 g?kg-1,4.55 g?kg-1 respectively) or Bifendate (45 mg?kg-1) by gastric perfusion daily for consecutive 5 days.In the 5th day,Con A (20 mg?kg-1) was injected into mice via the tail vein 4h after administration.And then the blood was obtained by picking out the eyeball and the serum was separated after 8-hour fasting.The serum levels of ALT and AST were analyzed,the body weight as well as the weight of liver,spleen and thymus were measured,and pathological features of hepatic tissue were observed.Results ILVG can decrease the ALT and AST,restrain the enlargement of liver and the shrinkage of thymus and reduce the necrosis of hepatic tissue.Conclusion Aqueous extract and alcohol-soluble extract of ILVG possess the effects of protecting liver from immunity injury induced by Con A in NIH mice.

Objective To detect the expression levels of the miR-205 in lung cancer tissue and A549 cells and its targeted gene YES1 using qRT-PCR and dual fluorescence protein repoter assay system,and to explore the possible mechanism of miR-205 to inhibit the proliferation of lung cancer A549 cells.Methods The expression levels of miR-205 in 10 cases of lung cancer tissue and adjacent normal lung tissue were detected with qRT-PCR.The cell growth curve and colony formation assay were used to determine the proliferation rate of A549 cells after transfected by miR-205 mimics and control mimics.The sequences of YES1 3′UTR (untranslated region)and mutation target sites of YES1 3′UTR were inserted into the plasmid which expressed green fluorescence protein (pcDNA3/EGFP) respectively to construct the green fluorescence protein plasmids of YES1-3′UTR and mut-YES1-3′UTR. There were six groups in the study:YES1-3′UTR, YES1-3′UTR and miR-205 mimics, YES1-3′UTR and control mimics,mut-YES1-3′UTR, mut-YES1-3′UTR and miR-205 mimics, mut-YES1-3′UTR and control mimics;after the plasmids expressed red fluorescent protein (pDsRed2-N1 )were cotransfected into A549 cells,the extracted protein was detected with fluorescence spectrophotometer.Results Compared with adjacent normal lung tissue,the expression levels of miR-205 in lung cancer tissue and A549 cells were decreased (P<0.05 );the proliferation rate of A549 cells in miR-205 mimics group was lower than that in control mimics group (P<0.05). The fluorescence protein expression level in YES1-3′UTR and miR-205 mimics co-transfected group was lower than that in YES1-3′UTR and control mimics co-transfected group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).The number of cell colony formation of A549 cells in highly expressed YES1 group was higher than that in cell control group (P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-205 may inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells through regulating of the expression of YES1 directly.miR-205 and YES1 are potential therapeutic targets for the biological treatment of tumor.

Methods APACHE II scores≥14 and fluids imbalance were respectively used to define as the indication of starting hemofiltration and ending hemofiltration. In 39 patients with SAP,19 underwent ISVVH(IS group),and the other 20 patients were not accepted hemofiltration (N group). APACHE II scores, Balthazar CT grades and the plasma levels of procalitonin(PCT), TNF-?, IL-6, IL-8, IL-1ra, IL-2 and IL-10 were observed. Results At admission and 2d after admission, APACHE II scores in IS group and N group were (13.8?3.1)and (17.8?3.2) ( P

Objective To study the effect of single short (SS) veno-venous hemofiltration and intermittent short (IS) veno-venous hemofiltration on imbalance of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) patients. Methods There were 17 and 21 SAP patients indicated for hemofiltration respectively enrolled for (SS) veno-venous hemofiltration (SS group) and IS veno-venous hemofiltration (IS group).Twenty SAP patients admitted and indicated for hemofiltration but not receiving the management during the same period served as control. Plasma levels of TNF-?,IL-6,IL-8,and IL-10 were measured. APACHE Ⅱ scores and fluid balance were used to evaluate patients′ condition. Results APACHE Ⅱ scores in both SS and IS groups declined significantly at day one after admission(P

Objective To investigate and assess 13C-methacetin breath test as a method to quantitatively evaluate the liver function of non-alcoholic fatty liver. Methods Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the following 2 groups, control group given a standard chow and model group given high-fat diet (88 % standard chow + 10% lard +2% cholesterol). At the 8th week and 12th week, the isotope-selective nondispersive infrared spectrometer (NDIRS) was applied to 13C-methacetin breath test. Peak value of breathing (DOB), the duration to peak (T), and cumulative expiration within 60 min (CUM60min) were determined. Then, the two groups of rats were executed respectively. The level of endotoxin in the portal vein and abdominal aorta was detected respectively, and the specific tissue of liver was fixed in 10% buffered formalin, processed, and embedded in paraffin for hematoxylin eosin (H&E). Results Compared with the control group, DOB increased in the model group at the 12th week but not at the 8th week. The trend was corresponded to the degree of path-ological lesion in the liver of rats. At the 8th week and 12th week, endotoxin levels in the portal vein of model group were significantly in-creased compared with control group. The breath test results were positively related to emlotoxin levels in the portal vein. Conclusion 13C-methacetin breath test may be a non-invasive method to evaluate the pathological changes of non-alcoholic fatty liver.
