OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of cimetidine on low dose rate irradiation-induced liver cell apoptosis in Beagle dogs. METHODS: Healthy male Beagle dogs were randomly divided into normal control group, model control group, positive drug group (lentinan, 21.33 mg/kg) and cimetidine low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (5.33, 10.67, 21.33 mg/kg), with 4 Beagle dogs each. Except for normal control group, other groups were given 60Co-γ accumulative irradiation (dosage rate: 0.040 8 mGy/min) for 23 d; the medication groups were given relevant medicine orally before irradiation, once a day. Twenty-four hours after stopping irradiation, TUNEL method was used to detect the apoptosis of liver cells in Beagle dogs. The percentage of apoptotic cells was calculated. The expression level of apoptosis-related proteins (Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3, p53) in liver tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: Compared with normal control group, apoptotic cells and Bax, Caspase-3, p53 positive cells were increased significantly in liver tissue of Beagle dogs in model control group; the percentage of apoptotic cells, protein expression levels of Bax, Caspase-3 and p53 were increased significantly; Bcl-2 positive cells were decreased significantly, and its protein expression level was decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model control group, above positive cells of liver tissue in Beagle dogs were changed to different extents in medication groups; the percentage of apoptotic cells and protein expression levels of p53 in medication groups, protein expression levels of Bax in positive drug group, cimetidine low-dose and high-dose groups as well as protein expression levels of Caspase-3 in cimetidine groups were decreased significantly; protein expression levels of Bcl-2 were increased significantly in cimetidine groups. The percentage of apoptotic cells in cimetidine medium-dose and high-dose groups as well as protein expression levels of Caspase-3 in cimetidine groups were all lower than positive control group. Protein expression level of p53 in cimetidine low-dose group was significantly higher than positive drug group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Cimetidine can inhibit the low dose rate irradiation-induced apoptosis of liver cells in Beagle dogs, and certainly protect liver cells against irradiation. The mechanism of it may be associated with up-regulating the protein expression of Bcl-2 and down-regulating the protein expression of Bax, Caspase-3 and p53 in liver cells.

Objects To study the protective effects of cimetidine against oxidative stress in rats induced by cumulative low-dose irradiation.Methods Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (10 each):normal control group,model control group,lentinan group [89mg/(kg.d)] and 3 dose groups of cimetidine.After oral administration,all the rats were exposed to γ-ray irradiation 8 hours/day for 12 days,and sacrificed on the 13th day.The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD),glutathione peroxidase (GPx),catalase (CAT) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum,liver,thymus and spleen were determined.By using the superoxide anion radical system,hydroxyl radical system,H2O2 radical system,oxidation system of linoleic acid induced by alkane radical system and diphenyl picryl hydrazinyl radical (DPPH) radical system,the antioxidation activities of cimetidine were detected.Results The activities of SOD in liver and thymus decreased significantly,the GPx activity in serum,liver and spleen decreased significantly and MDA level in serum,liver and spleen increased significantly after 0.3Gy cumulative ionizing radiation.Cimetidine enhanced the activities of antioxidant enzymes in serum and organs,and reduced the MDA level.In a certain concentration range,cimetidine had different scavenging effects onto these radical systems,and showed good performance in hydroxyl radical.Conclusion Cimetidine can effectively ameliorate the oxidative stress from low-dose cumulative irradiation by scavenging free radicals,increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes and reduce the content of lipid peroxidation products,thus presents a potential radio protective effect.

Objective To investigate the radioprotective effect of cimetidine on survival rate and hematopoietic system in acutely irradiated mice.Methods The total body irradiation doses were 6.0Gy and 8.0Gy respectively at 1.01Gy/min rate. Sixty healthy male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group, model group, positive-drug (523) group and cimetidine groups (33.3mg/kg, 100mg/kg and 300mg/kg). Each group had ten mice. The mice were given intragastric administration of cimetidine for 6d before the irradiation in cimetidine groups, and 523 was administered before irradiation once a day for one day in 523 group, and at 5h after irradiation, was given again. The 30d survival rate after 8.0Gy irradiation was recorded. The peripheral blood cells, bone marrow DNA content and frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes (fMNPCE) were determined 30d after 6.0Gy irradiation.Results After 8.0Gy irradiation, all the mice died on 21th day in model control group. The survival rates in cimetidine groups were 50%, 20% and 30%, respectively. After 6.0Gy irradiation on 30th day, compared with control group, the peripheral white blood cells (WBC) and bone marrow DNA content were decreased significantly (P<0.01,P<0.05) in model group, and fMNPCE was increased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with model group, WBC was significantly increased in 300mg/kg cimetidine group (P<0.01). In cimetidine groups, the bone marrow DNA content was increased significantly after irradiation (P<0.01 orP<0.05), and the fMNPCE was decreased significantly (P<0.01 orP<0.05) and tended towards normal.Conclusion Cimetidine could improve 30d survival rate of acutely irradiated mice and has good protective effect on hematopoietic system.

Objective To study the computed tomograhpy (CT) features of non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis (MDR-TB), and to improve the differential diagnosis of the disease. Methods The CT imaging data of 67 patients diagnosed with NTM pulmonary disease (NTM lung disease group) and 103 patients with MDR-TB (MDR-TB group) were selected from January 2010 to December 2015 in our hospital. The imaging findings and differences in lesion location were compared between two groups. Results Lesions of NTM lung disease occurred in the posterior segment of the posterior and posterior lumbar dorsal (Ⅰarea), clustered lobular central nodules, accompanied by bronchiectasis and subpleural thin wall empty, rare bronchial foci. MDR-TB lesions occurred in the middle lobe of the right lung and the upper lobe of the left lung (Ⅱarea). The upper lung of the lungs were patch, nodules and caseous lesions, with thick wall and chronic lung inflammation, showing thick wall empty, pulmonary consolidation, atelectasis, calcification (lung), hilar mediastinal lymph node calcification, lung volume reduction, pleural thickening and pleural effusion. Conclusion Chest CT images are similar in NTM lung disease and MDR-TB, but there are differences. The detailed analysis of image features can provide a basis for clinical differential diagnosis.

Results:
The mean age of 72 patients was 54 years (40 to 70 years). Thirty-two patients were pre-menopausal and 40 were post-menopausal. According to the FIGO staging system (2014), 32 cases(44.4%)were at stage Ⅰ, 22 cases(30.6%)at stage Ⅱ, 17 cases(23.6%)at stage Ⅲ and 1 case(1.4%) at stage Ⅳ. Microscopically, MELF invasion showed microcystic, elongated slit-like or fragmented glands in myometrium and their lining cells usually were cube or flat, as well as the single or clusters of eosinophilic tumor cells mimicking histocytes. In addition, a fibromyxoid or inflammatory stromal response was often present.Immunohistochemical staining showed that MELF invasion was positive for p16, CA125 and CA19-9, but negative for ER, PR and p53.Compared with non-MELF pattern invasion, significant differences were noted in menopause pausimenia, FIGO stages, deep invasion into myometrium, lymph metastasis, lymphovascular space invasion (LVSL), serum CA125 and CA19-9 in patients with MELF pattern invasion (all
