Roles of oxygen radicals and elastase in citric acid-induced airway constriction of guinea-pigs

Antioxidants attenuate noncholinergic airway constriction. To further investigate the relationship between tachykinin-mediated airway constriction and oxygen radicals, we explored citric acid-induced bronchial constriction in 48 young Hartley strain guinea-pigs, divided into six groups: control; citric acid; hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes + citric acid; hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes + phosphoramidon + citric acid; dimethylthiourea (DMTU) + citric acid; and DMTU + phosphoramidon + citric acid. Hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes and DMTU are scavengers of oxygen radicals while phosphoramidon is an inhibitor of the major degradation enzyme for tachykinins. Animals were anaesthetized, paralyzed, and artificially ventilated. Each animal was given 50 breaths of 4 ml saline or citric acid aerosol. We measured dynamic respiratory compliance (Crs), forced expiratory volume in 0.1 (FEV0.1), and maximal expiratory flow at 30% total lung capacity (Vmax30) to evaluate the degree of airway constriction. Citric acid, but not saline, aerosol inhalation caused marked decreases in Crs, FEV0.1 and Vmax30, indicating marked airway constriction. This constriction was significantly attenuated by either hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes or by DMTU. In addition, phosphoramidon significantly reversed the attenuating action of hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes, but not that of DMTU. Citric acid aerosol inhalation caused increases in both lucigenin- and t-butyl hydroperoxide-initiated chemiluminescence counts, indicating citric acid-induced increase in oxygen radicals and decrease in antioxidants in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. These alterations were significantly suppressed by either hexa(sulphobutyl)fullerenes or DMTU. An elastase inhibitor eglin-c also significantly attenuated citric acid-induced airway constriction, indicating the contributing role of elastase in this type of constriction. We conclude that both oxygen radicals and elastase play an important role in tachykinin-mediated, citric acid-induced airway constriction.     

The spectrum of cavernous sinus and orbital venous thrombosis: a case and a review

Orbital venous pathologies encompass a broad range of entities including tumors, shunts, congenital anomalies, aneurysms, and obstructive lesions. Patients may present with a variety of clinical findings which may include a combination of tumefaction, vascular engorgement, orbital pulsation, and exophthalmos, depending on the relationship between the lesion and the vascular system. Clinical findings may be unreliable in excluding serious underlying disorders, and so an extensive clinical and radiologic evaluation is necessary. This article presents a rare case of spontaneous aseptic cavernous sinus-superior ophthalmic vein thrombosis in a woman on hormone replacement therapy, and illustrates the multidisciplinary approach in diagnosis and management. The literature on issues surrounding this case is reviewed.     

Initial results of laser angioplasty under angioscopic guidance for salvage of an ischemic lower limb: preliminary report

From March to July 1989, nine patients at risk for peripheral artery disease underwent intraoperative Nd:YAG laser angioplasty using angioscopy at the Veterans General Hospital (Taipei, Taiwan, Republic of China). Following the laser angioplasty, balloon dilatation was performed in all cases. Eight men and one woman at an average age of 68 were included in the study (range: 58 to 78 years old). Ischemic symptoms included five patients with disabling claudication, four with pain at rest and one with gangrene on the toes. Eight of the nine patients had complete occlusions ranging from 2 to 19 cm in length. Two patients had high degree multiple segmental stenosis of the superficial femoral artery from 1 to 2 cm in length. Initial clinical success (indicated by relief of symptoms and increase in Doppler ankle pressure and index) and improvement in the angiographic luminal diameter was noted in 9 of 10 occluded vessels (90%) that underwent Nd:YAG laser treatment which was delivered at 10 to 12 watts through laser probes. Prelaser intraluminal diameter increased from 0.05 +/- 0.07 to 0.53 +/- 0.07 mm, Doppler ankle pressure index rose from 0.51 +/- 0.12 to 0.81 +/- 0.12, Doppler ankle pressure increased from 62.44 +/- 16.10 to 104 +/- 21.21 mmHg and the amplitude of pulse volume recorder at ankle level rose from 5.77 +/- 2.80 to 12.11 +/- 2.77 mm as compared with prelaser therapy (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

麻黄离体培养研究进展

麻黄的出口量和使用量在逐年增加，麻黄碱的提取一直以野生资源为原料，使麻黄野生资源将近枯竭，土地沙化日趋严重，生态环境受到严重破坏。为了保护野生资源，国务院颁发了有关禁止滥挖干草和麻黄的通知，鼓励人工种植麻黄，从根本上解决麻黄资源紧缺的问题。目前人工种植麻黄的种源主要依靠采集野生种子育苗，由于野生麻黄的种源是一混杂的群体，因此栽培的麻黄在形态、生长发育及其有效成分上都存在差异，影响麻黄的产量和质量，从而制约了我国麻黄企业的发展。因此利用生物技术进行麻黄快速繁殖及种质保存、细胞离体培养产生代谢药用产物的研究具有广阔的应用前景。本文综述了国内外麻黄组织培养、细胞悬浮培养等研究状况，为麻黄资源可持续利用提供了一个新的有效途径。     

过氧化氢对豚鼠耳蜗功能及形态的影响

目的 在体观察过氧化氢(H2O2)对豚鼠耳蜗功能及形态的影响。方法 实验动物分为4组，分别灌流人工外淋巴液(artificial perilymph,APL)，50μMH2O2，100μMH2O2和200μMH2O2(H2O2均溶于APL中)，并用Pl和H033342双染色方法观察H2O2引起的内耳细胞损伤情况。结果 所有H2O2灌流组复合动作电位((CAP)阈移和耳蜗微音电位(CM)幅度变化与人工外淋巴液组比较差异有显著性，且各H2O2组的变化呈现出浓度依赖性；Pl和H033342双染色方法发现外毛细胞是H2O2攻击的主要靶细胞，而Hensen细胞未见任何损伤痕迹。结论 H2O2可导致耳蜗功能下降及耳蜗毛细胞损伤：Hensen细胞较毛细胞可能具有更强的抗氧化能力。
