OBJECTIVE To study the mechanisms and effect of sufentanil(SUF)on protection of sepsis-induced myocardial injury.METHODS The in vitro experimental models of sepsis-induced myocardial injury were estab-lished by using lipopolysaccharide(LPS).The myocardial H9C2 cells were divided into the Control group,the LPS group,the SUF-L group,the SUF-M group,the SUF-H group,the SUF-H-ComC group and the SUF-H-ML385 group;the LPS group,the SUF-L group,the SUF-M group,the SUF-H group,the SUF-H-ComC group and the SUF-H-ML385 group were the experimental groups.The cells from the experimental groups were respec-tively inoculated and incubated in culture media containing 25 mg/L of LPS,and the culture media were respec-tively added SUF with the terminal dose of 0,5,10,20,20 and 20 μmol/L;the culture media of the SUF-H-ComC was added ComC with the terminal dose of 10 μmol/L,and the culture media of the SUF-H-ML385 was added ML385 with the terminal dose of 5 μmol/L.The cells from the Control group were incubated in normal cul-ture media.The same amount of culture media and CCK-8 reagent without containing myocardial H9C2 cells were assigned as the blank group.The cell viability was determined by CCK-8 method,the levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS),malondialdehyde(MDA),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and gluta-thione peroxidase(GSH-Px)were detected.The Fe2+level of the cells was detected by iron ion colorimetric meth-od.The levels of interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in supernatant fluid of the culture media were detected with the use of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The expression levels of adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinas(AMPK),phosphorylated-AMPK(p-AMPK),nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)were detected by means of Western Blot.RESULTS The cell viability of the LPS group was lower than that of the Control group;the levels of ROS,MDA,LDH,Fe2+,IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α of the LPS group were higher than those of the Control group;the levels of SOD and GSH-Px of the LPS group were lower than those of the Control group;the expression levels of p-AMPK/AMPK,Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins of the LPS group were lower than those of the Control group(P<0.05).As compared with the LPS group,the cell viability of the SUF-L group,the SUF-M group and the SUF-H group was succes-sively increased,the levels of ROS,MDA,LDH,Fe2+,IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α were successively reduced,the levels of SOD and GSH-Px were successively elevated,and the expression levels of p-AMPK/AMPK,Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins were successively increased(P<0.05).AMPK pathway inhibitor and Nrf2 pathway inhibitor could reverse the viability of SUF-affecting LPS-induced myocardial H9C2 cells,levels of ROS,MDA,LDH,Fe2+,SOD,GSH-Px,IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α and downregulated the expression levels of p-AMPK/AMPK,Nrf2 and HO-1 proteins(P<0.05).CONCLUSION SUF can improve the sepsis-induced myocardial injury,and the mecha-nism may be associated with activation of AMPK/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathways,inhibition of ferroptosis,oxi-dative stress injury and inflammatory reactions.

Aim To evaluate whether the combination of polypeptide AP25 and docetaxel is more efficient in treating experimental breast cancer,than either reagent used alone,and to offer suggestions for clinical use. Methods An experimental breast carcinoma model was set up to investigate the anti-tumor effects of AP25 and docetaxel combination.The Q value was caluculat-ed by Guinness rules and the anti-tumor effects of the combination of polypeptide AP25 and docetaxel were e-valuated.Results The treatment by the combination of polypeptide AP25 and docetaxel showed a better tumor inhibition rate.The combination of AP25 20 mg ·kg -1 and docetaxel 10 mg·kg -1 significantly inhibi-ted the tumor growth with 0.85 1.15,showing a synergistic effect.Conclusions The combination of AP25 and docetaxel can significantly in-hibit the tumor growth with a synergistic effect and de-crease the dose of chemotherapy.

mPEG-SC20k-HM-3 is a novel anti-angiogenesis peptide with integrin affinity. To investigate the anti-tumor activities of mPEG-SC20k-HM-3 and oxaliplatin(OXA)combination, a transplanted tumor model of human hepatocellular carcinoma SMMC-7721 in nude mice was established. Jin′s formula to evaluate the combination effect was used. Data suggested that the anti-tumor activities of combined groups were better than those of single drug(P< 0. 05). Inhibition rate of group 8(OXA 7. 5 mg/kg and mPEG-SC20k-HM-3 73. 4 mg/kg)was 84. 6%, which showed remarkable superiority to group 3(OXA 7. 5 mg/kg)and group 4(mPEG-SC20k-HM-3 73. 4 mg/kg). The Q of group 8 was 1. 164(> 1. 15). This combination had synergistic effect. Combination of mPEG-SC20k-HM-3 and oxaliplatin is a method of inhibiting hepatocellular carcinoma.

The effect of recombinant human phospholipase D2(rhPLD2)in vivo was investigated on the secretion of serum glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D(GPI-PLD)in guinea pigs of chronic asthma.Ater treating the guinea pigs attacked by chronic asthma with rhPLD2,the GPI-PLD activity detection was canrried out by phase separation of human placental alkaline phosphatase in Triton X-114.Compared with the healthy guinea pigs(NS group),the serum GPI-PLD in the guinea pigs of chronic asthma are much higher than that of control groups,P≤0.01.Our results showed that rhPLD2 could significantly reduce the secretion of GPI-PLD when the guinea pigs were attacked by chronic asthma.
