Objective To investigate the effects of schisandrin B (Sch-B) on expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and signal transduction molecule mRNA in rat lungs exposed to SiO2,and explore the intervention mechanism of Sch-B on pulmonary fibrosis induced by SiO2. Methods Ninety six Wistar rats were randomly divided into control (normal saline) group, SiO2 group and SiO2 plus Sch-B group.The rats were exposed to SiO2 by direct tracheal instillation to establish the silicotic animal models. SiO2 group and SiO2 plus Sch-B group were treated with 1ml SiO2 (50 mg/ml) for each rat From the first day after model establishment, SiO2 plus Sch-B group were orally given Sch-B (80 mg/kg) a day, control group and silica group were orally given olive oil. On the 3rd, 7th,14th and 28th days after treatment, 8 rats in each group were sacrificed and samples were collected. The histo-pathological examination of lung was performed by HE staining. The expression levels of TGF-β1 、TGFβR Ⅱ and Smad4 mRNA in the lung tissues were detected by RT-PCR. Results The results of histo-pathological examination showed that in SiO2 group, lung tissues were injured obviously; the alveolar inflammation with alveolus interval edema and inflammation cell infiltration appeared on the 3rd and 7th days; the alveolus interval became thicker, became thicker, fibroblast and collagen matiix increased markedly on 14th day; the alveolar structure was damaged, alveolar wall thickened obviously,collagen aggradation and pulmonary fibrosis displayed on 28th day. The alveolar inflammation and pulmonary fibrosis in SiO2 plus Sch-B group were significantly less than those in SiO2 group. The expressions levels of TGF-β1、TGFβR Ⅱ and Smad4 mRNA (TGF-β1: 1.03±0.31 、1.33±0.39、1.08±0.26、0.82±0.16,TGF-βR Ⅱ:0.65 ±0.11、0.80 ±0.16、0.83 ±0.24、0.62 ±0.15, Smad4: 0.87 ±0. 15、0.68 ±0.11、0.78 ±0.19、0.30 ±0.08) in SiO2group were significantly higher than those in the control group (TGF-β1:0.59±0.22、0.55 ±0.25、0.56±0.20、0.55 ±0.12,TGR-βR Ⅱ:0.28 ±0.13、0.31 ±0. 15、0.34 ±0.15、0.27 ±0.09,Smad4:0.23 ±0.11、0.40 ±0. 12、0.39 ±0.12、0.18±0.06)(P<0.01 or P<0.05), but the expression level of TGF-β1 mRNA was the highest on the 7th day. The expression levels of TGF-β1 and Smad4 mRNA (TGF-β1: 0.68 ±0.28、0.88 ±0.25、0.75 ±0.11、0.61 ±0. 14,Smad4:0.25 ±0.12、0.45 ±0.09、0.44 ±0.07、0.21 ±0.04) in SiO2 plus Sch-B group were significantly lower than those in SiO2 group (P<0.01 or P<0.05),but there were no significant differences of the TGFβR Ⅱ mRNA expression levels between SiO2 group and SiO2 plus Sch-B group. Conclusion Sch-B can reduce the pulmonary fibrosis induced by SiO2 through inhibition of the mRNA express of TGF-β1 and Smad4 in the lung tissue, modulating the TGF-β1/Smad4 signal transduction pathway and inhibiting the target gene activation.  相似文献

Objective To investigate the effect and regulation of extracellual signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2)signaling pathway on the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in human embryonic lung fibroblasts induced by SiO2. Methods Human alveolar macrophages were collected from a silicotic patient by bronchoalveolar lavage and in the presence or absence of SiO2 (50 ug/ml) exposition for 18h, and then the conditioned supernatants were used to incubate HELF. The expressions of TGF-β1 of the HELF acted with the conditioned AM supernatant fluid were detected with the immunocytochemistry method after treatment with PD98059 of inhibitor of ERK. Results The expression of TGF-β1 in HELF of the SiO2 treatment group(OD value is 0.322 7±0.023 8)exceed blank group (OD value is 0.163 7±0.019 6) and AM control group(OD value is 0.240 6±0.022 5) by the immunocytochemistry method. But the expression of TGF-β1 had reduction in some extent in the PD98059 intervention group (OD value is 0.271 l±0.022 9). The values were statistically different (P<0.05). Conclusion ERK inhibitor PD98059 have inhibition effect on the expression of transforming growth factor-pi and expression of cytokine of human embryonic lung fibroblasts stimulated by SiO2, The study indicate that the proliferation and collagen prodction of HELF activated by SiO2 are mediated by ERK/MAPK signal pathway in some extent. PD98059 may antagonizes silica-induced lung fibrosis by inhibiting the expression of transforming growth factor-β1.  相似文献

Abstract:
Objective To compare the pulmonary alveolitis and the early fibrosis of pulmonary fibrosis induced by quartz dust and bleomycin in rats, and investigate their mechanism. Methods The female rats were divided into three groups: control group exposed to normal saline by the trachea; SiO2 group exposed to SiO2 by the trachea; BLM group exposed to BLM A5 by the trachea. Each half of the animals were sacrificed on the 7th andl4th day after expoasure. The lungs of rats were collected to observe pulmonary alveolitis by HE staining and to observe fibrosis by saturated picric acid sirius red staining. The expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and CD68 in pulmonary tissues were analyzed quantitatively by immunohistochmistry and image analysis system. Results (1) The alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis of rats in both SiO2 group and BLM group were became more serious gradually over time, HE staining under light microscope showed that BLM group on the 7th day had the most obvious alveolitis (2.814±0.832), the saturated picric acid sirius red staining under polarized light showed that BLM group on the 14th day had the worst pulmonary fibrosis (1284.57±554.72), which were significantly higher than those (103.69±18.29 and 111.78±37.45) in control group and SiO2 group on the 7th day (P<0.05). (2) The results of immunohistochmistry examination indicated that the expression (17.100±1.831) of TNF-α in the BLM group on the 7th day was significantly higher than those (0.451 ±0.441, 7.909±1.275 and 13.506±1.454) in control group, SiO2 group on 7th day and BLM group on 14th day (P<0.05). The expression (22.778 ±2.512) of TNF-a in the SiO2 group on the 14th day was significantly higher than those in control group, SiO2 group on 7th day and BLM group on 14th day (P<0.05).The expression (134.941 ±35.951) of CD68 in the SiO2 group on the 14th day was significantly higher than those in control group,SiO2 group on 7th day and BLM group on 14th day(P<0.05).Conclusion The early alveolitis of BLM-induced lung injury model was more serious than that of SiO2-induced lung injury model,and the fibrosis process of BLM-induced lung injury model was earlier than that of SiO2-induced lung injury model.TNF-α plays an important role in the conrse of both models.but macrophages is involved in Si06nduced pulmonary in a more continuous way than in BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis.  相似文献

Methods 80 male Sprague-Dawley rats were random divided into 4 groups (20 rats in each group). Rats in the fibrosis model group, the prednisone group and the curcumin group were induced by instilled bleomycin through tracheal, rats in the control group with same volume normal saline. Since the 15th day after bleomycin administration, the curcumin group and prednisone group were given curcumin (300 mg/kg) or prednisone (5mg/kg) per day by intragastric administration, respectively. The normal control group and the model group were given 1% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose ( 10ml/kg). Six rats of each group were random sacrificed on the 21st, 28th, 42nd and 56th days after bleomycin administration. The histological changes of the pulmonary were evaluated by H. E and Masson dyeing. The expressions of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and hydroxyproline in the tissue of pulmonary were assessed by immunohistochemistry and digestion method. Results Pulmonary fibrosis and hydroxyproline level in the curcumin group were obviously reduced as compared with the model group on the 42nd and 56th day[42 d:1. 28 ±0. 61 vs 2. 28 ±0. 39,P <0. 01 ;(1.73 ±0. 22)mg/g vs (2.50 ±0. 37) mg/g, P <0.01;56 d:1.00 ±0.59 vs 1.73 ±0.36, P< 0. 05; ( 1.57 ± 0. 36) mg/g vs (2. 20 ± 0. 42) mg/g, P < 0. 01 ], and it was also lower than that in prednisone group on the 42nd day( P < 0. 05 ).

Abstract:
Objective To study the curative effects of pirfenidone (PF)on pulmonary fibrosis induced by paraquat (PQ) in mice and to provide the theoretical basis for clinical treatment. Methods Ninety adult healthy male ICR mice were randomly divided into six groups: control group, PQ group , 2 mg/kg Dexamethasone group, 25 mg/kg PF group, 50 mg/kg PF group and 100 mg/kg PF group, there were 15 mice in each group. The corresponding volume of normal saline was given to the each mouse in control group according to the weight, after 2 h 0.1% CMC was given to the each mouse of control group one time by intragastric administration, then the CMC was administrated at regular time until sacrifice. All mice for other 5 groups were exposed to 100 mg/kg PQ by intragastric administration. At 2 h after exposure to PQ, 0.02 ml/10 g dexamethasone and 25、50、100 mg/kg PF were given to mice for dexamethasone group and for 3 PF groups by intragastric administration each day for 49 days, respectively. The lung coefficient was calculated and pathological changes of lung tissue were observed by HE staining for each mouse. The hydroxyproline (HYP)level in lung tissue was measured for each mouse. The mRNA level of and the protein level of TGF-β1 in lungtissue for each mouse were determined, and the protein level of TGF-β1 in the bronchus-alveolus lavage fluid (BALF) of each mouse was detected. Results The survival rates on the 3rd day in PQ group, 3 PF groups and dexamethasone group were 53.33%, 46.67%, 73.33%, 86.67% and 80%, respectively. The survival rates on the 3rd day in dexamethasone group, 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg PF groups were significantly higher than those of PQ group and 25 mg/kg PF group (P<0.05). The lung coefficients of 3 PF groups were significantly lower than that of the PQ group (P<0.05). The lung tissue HYP levels of dexamethasone group and 3 PF groups were 50.95±11.65, 44.52±9.48, 43.27±6.01 and 40.82±5.90 mg/g respectively, which were significantly lower than that (74.27±3.68) of PQ group(P<0.01 ). The TGF-β1 protein levels of BALF in dexamethasone group, 50 and 100 mg/kg PF groups were 22.03±7.27, 27.75±5.84 and 21.31 ±6.82 ng/ml respectively, which were significantly lower than that(52.52±15.51 ) ng/mlof PQ group(P<0.01 ). The expression level of TGF-β1 mRNA in 100 mg/kg PF group decreased significantly, as compared with PQ group (P<0.01). Conclusion PF could reduce the collagen deposition and pulmonary fibrosis induced by PQ in mice lungs.  相似文献

Objective To investigate the change of indicators of oxidative stress in serum and NF-κB in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with silicosis, and explore the mechanism of the development of silicosis. Methods The subjects were divided into (1) 200 workers exposed to SiO2 for at least 1 years in a foundry served as the dust-exposure group; (2) 130 cases with silicosis (Ⅰ phase silicosis 64 cases, Ⅱ phase 46 cases Ⅲ phase 20 cases) served as the silicosis goup; (3) 32 cases with 0+ phase silicosis in the foundry served as the observed group,(4)100 subjects from a hotel served as the control group. The serum including superoxide dismutase (SOD), nitric oxide (NO), serum glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), nitric oxide synthase (NOS), lipid malondialdehyde (MDA) and NF-κB protein levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were determined, respectively. Results Compared with the control group,NO levels in dust-exposed group and silicosis group significantly increased, and SOD decreased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the control group and dust-exposed group, T-AOC, NOS, MDA levels in silicosis group significantly increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01). GSH-Px in dust-exposed group and silicosis group were (231.164±36.484) and (270.469±39.228)U/md, respectively which were significantly than that [(223.360±46.838) U/ml] in control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and there was significant difference of GSHPx between the silicosis group and the dust-exposed group significantly (P<0.01).

Objective To study the expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor( EGFR) and the oncogene c-erbB2 on pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin( BLM) in rats. Methods Fifty-four Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups, the pulmonary fibrosis group (BLM), Iressa group and the control group. There were 18 rats in each group. Control group were injected with saline 0.2~0.3 ml in trachea.Iressa group and BLM group were injected with BLM intratracheal. After the fibrosis models were build, Iressa group were given orally Iressa(200 mg/kg)l h before modeling in Iressa group, saline were fed 10 ml/kg in BLM group and control group. The three groups were fed 5 times per week; and were sacrificed after treatment on days 1, 14and 28 respectively. The lungs were harvested for histological studies. Results The lung tissue in Iressa group showed fibrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration, the same as shown in the BLM group. The pulmonary fibrosis score was significantly lower than the BLM group on the 28 th day (2.17±0.41 vs 3.50±0.84, P<0.01). Compared with the control group, c-erbB2 and EGFR were hyperexpressed significantly both in BLM group and Iressa group at all time points (P<0.01); c-erbB2 expression had no changes between the Iressa group and the BLM (P>0.05), that were gradually decreased, and was significantly different at each time point (P<0.01). EGFR expression was increased gradually on the 14th and 28th day (0.17±0.02 and 0.28±0.04)in Iressa group ,that was significantly lower than the BLM group (0.27±0.04 and 0.34±0.02)(P<0.01). EGFR expression increased significantly on the 28th day than on the 14th day in the Iressa group(P<0.01). Conclusion The expression of C-erbB2 and EGFR are enhanced in different stages of alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis, c-erbB2 and EGFR may be participated in different stages of pulmonary fibrosis.  相似文献

Objective To explore the effect of nitroglycerin on ET/NO, TXA2/PGI2 and pancreas pathomorphology changes in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) rats. Methods Sixty SD rats were random divided into five groups, including control group (A group, n = 12) and experimental group(B,C,D and E group, n = 12). The SAP was induced by injection of 5% sodium taurocholate through retrograde common biliopancreatic ducts via duodenal papilla with epidural catheter. Group C, D and E were intravenously injected with nitroglycerin 0.5μg/kg/min,1μg/kg/min and 2μg/min in 30 min respectively, and group A and B was injected with Sodium Chloride 0.5ml. The indexes of changed pathomorphology and ET/NO, TXB2/6-keto-PGF1a, were determined at the 6th and 12th hour after operations, respectively. Results The specimen data of the 6th and 12th hour displayed that the indexes of changed pathomorphology, ET, ET/NO, TXB2, and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1a of the group C,D and E degraded respectively, compared to group B(P < 0.05). Conclusion The nitroglycerin could degrade ET, ET/NO,TXA2 and TXA2/PGI2, improve the microcirculation of pancreas, and delay the pathological inflammation change in SAP rats.  相似文献

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of aluminum on learning and memory and the expression of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor (NMDAR) of hippocampus in offspring from female rats exposed to Al in the pregnancy or lactation, and to explore the mechanism of toxic effects of Al on central nervous system (CNS) during development. Methods The pregnant Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups based on their body weight, I.e. Control group was exposed to distilled water, low exposure group (0.2 %AlCl3) and high exposure group (0.4 %AlCl3) were exposed orally to AlCl3 in pregnancy and lactation for 6 weeks, 10 rats each group. Aluminum content in blood and brains was determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS). Platform experiment was used to detect the abilities of learning and memory. The expression levels of NMDARs were detected by western blot assay. Results The Al content in blood and brains of rats in exposure groups increased significantly with Al dose, as compared with the control group ( P<0.05 ). In platform experiment, the incubation periods of rats in low and high exposure groups were (202.71±81.99 ) and ( 19.67±8.44 )s respectively, which were significantly lower than that [( 300.00±0.00 )s] in control group (P<0.01), but the mistake times of rats in low and high exposure groups were 1.43±0.85 and 2.47±0.99 respectively, which were significantly higher than that (0.00±0.00) in control group (P<0.01). The Al exposure could change the proportion of NMDAR subtypes, the expression levels of NR1 and NR2B in hippocampus of newborn rats in low and high exposure groups were 25.22±0.68, 81.23±15.37 and 24.75±0.71, 56.63 ±7.82, respectively, which were significantly lower than those (31.69±3.44, 107.61±9.05 ) in control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Aluminum exposure in pregnancy and lactation could reduce theabilities of learning and memory in newborn rats, and change the proportion of NMDAR subtypes. The reduced NR1and NR2B expression levels may be one of important mechanisms to influence the abilities of learning and memory in offspring.  相似文献

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of caspase-3 siRNA on the neurobehavior of mice exposed to aluminum. Methods Male KunMing mice ( 3 months old ) were randomly divided into 4 groups by weight:blank control group(4 μl normal saline), Al group(4 μl 0.5%AlCl3), Al plus empty vector group(3 μl 0.5% AlCl3 plus control siRNA expression vector)and Al plus RNAi group (3μl 0.5% AlCl3 plus targeted siRNA expression vector). All groups were treated by lateral cerebral ventricle micro-injection for 5 days. The neurobehavior was tested by the Morris water maze test, Open-field and Step-down tests for all treated mice. Pathological changes in hippocampus was observed by electron microscopy, the caspase-3 gene expression levels were detected using RT-PCR. Results The results of Step-down test indicated that as compared with control group, the latent time [LT, (44.67±10.60) s] in Al group decreased significantly, the error number (3.63±0.52) in Al group increased significantly and the LT [(68.00±14.70) s] in Al plus empty vector group decreased significantly(P<0.05). the LT [(239.50±19.36) s] in Al plus RNAi group increased significantly and the error number in Al plus RNAi group decreased significantly, as compared with Al group (P<0.05). The results of Morris water maze test showed that as compared with control group, the LT in Al group increased significantly, and residence time in the former platform quadrant decreased significantly and the LT in Al plus empty vector group increased significantly (P<0.05). The LT in Al plus RNAi group was significantly longer than that in Al group(P<0.05). The results of open-field test demonstrated that as compared with control group, the time in the central grid in Al group and Al plus empty vector group increased significantly, the rearing number and the modification number in Al group and Al plus empty vector group decreased significantly (P< 0.05). As compared with Al group, the time in the central grid in Al plus RNAi group decreased, the inter-cell number, the rearing number and the modification number increased significantly (P<0.05). The results of electron microscopic examination exhibited that a slight change of hippocampal cells appeared in control group, the obvious pathological changes of hippocampal cells appeared in Al group and Al plus empty vector group, but the pathological changes of hippocampal cells in Al plus RNAi group significantly reduced as compared with Al group. The results of thionin staining indicared that the layers of neural cells of hippocampal CA3 were more clear and there was not obvious denatured injury of neural cells of hippocampal CA3 in control group. The number and Nissl body color of neural cells of hippocampal CA3 in Al group and Al plus empty vector group decreased significantly. After RNA interference, the number and Nissl body color of neural cells of hippocampal CA3 increased obviously. The expression levels of caspase-3 gene in Al group and Al plus empty vector group were 2.24±0.57 and 2.28±0.33, respectively, which were significantly higher than that (1.00±0.00) in control group (P<0.05). The expression level of caspase-3 gene in Al plus RNAi group was 0.44 ±0.08, which was significantly lower than those in Al group and control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Aluminum can decrease the learning and memorizing ability, and inhibited the activity or exploration function of mice. It is suggested that Caspase-3 siRNA may reduce the neurotoxicity induced by aluminum to a certain extent.  相似文献

Objective To evaluate the effect of remifentanil on mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR) and QTc interval during tracheal intubation of general anesthesia patients. Methods Seventy-five ASA Ⅰ -Ⅱ grade patients were selected and allocated to receive either saline (group C), remifentanil 0.50 μg/kg (group R1) or remifentanil 0.75 μg/kg(group R2) by random digits table with 25 cases in each, they were administrated as a bolus intravenous, followed by a continuous infusion at 0.10 μg/ (kg·min), 1 min before laryngoscopy. All patients received fentanyl 3 μg/kg,propofol 1.0 - 1.5 mg/kg and vecuronium 0.1 mg/kg. The ECG.MAP and HR were recorded prior to induction of anesthesia (T0), 2 min following the start of drug intravenous of fentanyl and propofol with vecuronium (T1), 1 min following remifentanil or saline (T2), before laryngoscopy(T3), 30 s (T4), 2 min (T5) and 4 min (T6) after intubation. Results The QTc interval was significantly prolonged immediately following intubation in group C and group R1, but it remained stable in group R2, compared with the QTc interval just before laryngoscopy. In group R2, QTc interval was significantly shorter at T4-T6 compared to group C(P< 0.05 or < 0.01). QTc interval significantly increased from baseline at T4 in group R1 and T4-T6 in group C (P< 0.05 or < 0.01). The number of patients with QTc interval > 440 ms were significantly greater immediately following tracheal intubation in group C than that in group R2 [44% (11/25) vs. 12% (3/25)] (P < 0.05). Conclusions QTc interval increases following tracheal intubation during induction of anesthesia using fentanyl and propofol. Intravenous of remifentanil attenuates the QTc interval prolongation associated with tracheal intubation.

Abstract:
Objectiye To study influence of lanthanum chloride(LaCl3)on the expression of immediate early genes(IEGs)including c-jun,early growth response gene 1(Egr1)and activity-regulated cytoskeletal gene(Arc)in the hippocampus of rats,and discuss the mechanism of LaCl3 undermining learning and memory capability.Methods Forty female Wistar adult rats were divided into control group,low LaCl3-contaminated group(0.25%),medium LaCl3-contaminated group(0.50%),and high LaC13-contaminated group(1.00%)by randomized desigr.Each group had ten female rats along with five separately.The pups in respective group were La-dyed by lactation,and then the pups in LaCl3-contaminated groups drank 0.25%,0.50% and 1.00% LaCl3 separately for one month.Learning and memory capability of pups were measured in jumping stairs experiment.Hippocampal lanthanum content was determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS).Hippocampal c-jun,Egr1 and Arc mRNA expression was detected by RT-PCR,and corresponding protein expression was measured by Western blotting method.Results In the jumping stairs experiment,pups in 0.25%,0.50% and 1.00%LaCl3-contaminated groups respectively made(1.75 ±0.71),(2.38 ±0.92)and(3.00 ±0.76)mistakes;significantly higher than control group(1.25 ±0.46)(q values were 4.386,6.793,P <0.05).However,the incubation period of 0.25%,0.50% and 1.00% LaCl3-contaminated groups were(174.13 ± 33.72),(139.25 ±45.83)and(75.50 ± 18.56)respectively,which were all significantly lower than that of control group(206.75 ± 20.47)(q values were 2.958,6.121,11.902,P <0.05).Hippocampal c-jun mRNA expression were(0.89 ±0.08),(0.77 ±0.12),(0.58 ±0.14)and(0.29 ±0.10); while the c-jun protein expression were(0.72 ± 0.13),(0.64 ± 0.11),(0.43 ± 0.11)and(0.31 ± 0.14),and the Egr1 mRNA expression were(0.78 ±0.09),(0.61 ±0.13),(0.53 ±0.10)and(0.22 ±0.08),Egr1 protein expression were(0.65 ± 0.18),(0.40 ± 0.15),(0.32 ± 0.13)and(0.14 ± 0.09)in 0.25%,0.50%and 1.00% LaCl3-contaminated groups; and all of which presented a dose-effect relationship that the correlation coefficients of these parameters with dose were-0.900(t = 11.309,P = 0.000),-0.969(t =7.058,P=0.000),-0.898(t=11.179,P=0.000)and-0.962(t=6.739,P=0.000).Conclusion LaCl3 undermines the learning and memory capability of rats,which is possibly related to lower expression of e-jun and Egr1 gene and protein induced by lanthanum in hippocampus.  相似文献
