Pretreatment with Tongxinluo protects porcine myocardium from ischaemia/reperfusion injury through a nitric oxide related mechanism

Background The traditional Chinese medicine Tongxinluo can protect myocardium against ischaemia/reperfusion injury, but the mechanism of its action is not well documented. We examined the involvement of nitric oxide in the protective role of Tongxinluo. Methods Miniswine were randomized to four groups of seven: sham, control, Tongxinluo and Tongxinluo coadministration with a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine (L-NNA, 10 mg/kg i.v.). Three hours after administration of Tongxinluo, the animals were anaesthetised and the left anterior descending coronary artery ligated and maintained in situ for 90 minutes followed by 3 hours of reperfusion before death. Area of no reflow and necrosis and risk region were determined pathologically by planimetry. The degree of neutrophil accumulation in myocardium was obtained by measuring myeloperoxidase activity and histological analysis. Myocardial endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity and vascular endothelial cadherin content were measured by colorimetric method and immunoblotting analysis respectively.Results Tongxinluo significantly increased the local blood flow and limited the infarct and size of no reflow. Tongxinluo also attenuated myeloperoxidase activity and neutrophil accumulation in histological sections and maintained the level of vascular endothelial cadherin and endothelial nitric oxide synthase activity in the reflow region when compared with control group. The protection of Tongxinluo was counteracted by coadministration with L-NNA. Conclusions Tongxinluo may limit myocardial ischaemia and protect the heart against reperfusion injury. Tongxinluo regulates synthesis of nitric oxide by altering activity of endothelial nitric oxide synthase.     

阉割和睾酮替代对大鼠应激免疫抑制蛋白的影响

目的 :研究阉割和睾酮替代对束缚应激模型大鼠血清中应激免疫抑制蛋白的影响。方法 :成年雄性SD大鼠随机分为正常对照组、假手术组、阉割组、阉割后睾酮替代组。每组 10～ 12只。以上各组随机抽出一半给予束缚应激 ,另一半作为不应激对照。观察各组大鼠血清对ConA诱导的淋巴细胞转化的作用 ,作为反映血清中应激免疫抑制蛋白含量的指标。在离体实验中观察不同浓度的睾酮对淋巴细胞转化的直接作用。结果 :阉割可促进应激大鼠血清中应激免疫抑制蛋白的产生 ,睾酮替代可对抗这一作用。结论 :睾酮可在一定范围内对抗应激免疫抑制蛋白的产生。

Effect of superantigen on ion electrophysiology and permeability in rabbit maxillary sinus epithelia

Objective Superantigens are potent inflammatory stimuli which derive from pathogenic microbes such as bacteria, viruses and protozoa. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of superantigens on the function of rabbit maxillary sinus epithelium. Methods Twenty New Zealand white rabbits were divided into 4 groups. Rabbit sinus mucosa was separated under a surgical microscope and mounted in Ussing chambers to record short circuit current, conductance and permeability to horseradish peroxidase (HRP). Group A was used as normal control. Group B was stimulated with an injection of superantigen into the sinus for 4 hours. The sinus mucosa of Group C was stimulated by the addition of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) into Ussing chambers. Group D sinus mucosa was stimulated by superantigen after pretreatment with anti-TNF-α antibody. Results Superantigen evoked increases in sinus epithelial cell baseline short circuit current, conductance and permeability to HRP stimulated by the addition of TNF-α into Ussing chambers. These were similar to results from superantigen stimulation in vivo. The effect of superantigen on sinus epithelial cells could be blocked by pretreatment with anti-TNF-α antibody. Conclusions Superantigen affected the function of sinus epithelial cells, including the capability of epithelial defensive barrier, which might be mediated by TNF-α.     

急性胰腺炎患者IL-6、TNFα水平测定及临床意义

目的研究急性胰腺炎患者IL-6、TNFα分泌情况及其临床意义。方法选择30例急性胰腺炎患者和28例健康对照,用生物学方法检测血浆中IL-6、TNFα的水平。结果急性胰腺炎患者血浆中IL-6、TNFα分别为(76．4±10．1)k u/L、60．7％±12．3％,均高于正常对照组(20．8±6．1)ku/L、12．4％±4．7％,随疾病的恢复逐渐趋于正常(28．5±9．1)ku/L、18．8％±6．4％。结论急性胰腺炎患者血浆中的IL-6、TNFα水平均高于正常组,说明二者参与这一炎症过程。
