Effect of endotoxin and a burn injury on lung and liver lipid peroxidation and catalase activity

Both endotoxin and a burn alone produce oxidant-induced tissue lipid peroxidation. The endotoxin response is due in large part to hydrogen peroxide. The combination of endotoxin after a burn results in an increased liver, but not lung, oxidant injury. Our purpose was to determine whether the burn oxidant injury inactivated endogenous liver tissue catalase, thereby amplifying a subsequent H2O2 insult. Twenty-six adult sheep were studied. Twelve sheep had a 15% TBS burn. Tissue catalase activity, measured in lung and liver 3 days postburn, was significantly decreased from a control of 3.58 +/- 1.8 and 193 +/- 63, respectively, to 1.72 +/- 0.63 and 148 +/- 33 k(sec-1)/0.5 gram tissue. The addition of endotoxin 3 days postburn resulted in an increase in liver malondialdehyde, MDA, a measure of lipid peroxidation, from a control of 110 +/- 80 to 450 +/- 54 nmol/gram tissue. This value was significantly greater than the 210 +/- 80 nmol/gram tissue seen after endotoxin alone. Lung tissue MDA with burn and endotoxin was 65 +/- 8 compared to 42 +/- 7 for control and 80 +/- 6 nmol/gram for endotoxin alone. We conclude that a decrease in liver catalase activity occurs after a burn. The decrease corresponds to an accentuated oxidant-induced lipid peroxidation after an added endotoxin insult where H2O2 is known to be an etiologic agent. The catalase activity also decreases in postburn lung, but accentuated lung damage was not seen, indicating a variable tissue response from the burn-induced decrease in antioxidant activity.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

关于单结合胆红素水溶性的研究

目的:进一步研究单结合胆红素(MCB)的水难溶特性及其在病理性胆汁中参与胆红素沉淀和色素性结石形成的作用机制.方法:应用胆红素高效液相色谱分析技术,先从人胆汁中获得结合胆红素,再经分离、制备及纯化得到纯MCB.然后观察其水溶解度并与其它型胆红素比较.结果:在pH7.9,温度37℃接近生理的条件下,MCB的溶解度(558.25±5.96μm)仅为双结合胆红素(DCB)的1/7,比不结合胆红素(UCB)高约44倍并随pH值改变而呈曲线变化.pH7.9时最大;pH4.5时为0;而当pH>9时,反而低于呈离于状态的UCB.结论:MCB虽作为结合型胆红素在胆道生理条件下的不溶性明显高于UCB,但比DCB要低得多;而在胆道病理条件下,其水溶性不但远低于DCB,甚至还不如离子化的UCB,这可能是MCB参与胆红素沉淀及胆色素结石形成的理化基础.     

儿童后腹膜肿块CT表现

育龄妇女月经周期中心血管功能的变化

本研究采用先进的三维超声成像技术及多普勒技术对正常育龄妇女月经周期中心血管功能进行研究。结果：月经周期中ＨＲ、ＢＰ无变化；血清Ｅ２是周期性变化，排卵前达高峰。ＳＶ、ＣＯ、ＥＦ在排卵前期升高达峰值，显著高于月经期和黄体期；ＳＶＲ排卵前期最低，而Ｖｅｄ、Ｖｅｓ无变化。Ｖｍａｘ、Ａ、Ｅ在内源性Ｅ２高峰时明显加快，而Ｅ／Ａ比值无明显变化。结果提示：月经周期中随内源性Ｅ２的周期性变化，心脏功能也发生周期性变化。Ｅ２高峰时，心输出量、心搏量和射血分数达最高。外周阻力最低，心脏内血流速度加快。

235例乳腺病变粗针吸微创性活检及免疫组织化学检测意义

目的评价乳腺病变粗针吸活检（CNB）方法，探讨CNB组织免疫组织化学检测的临床意义。方法对CNB后接受手术治疗的235例乳腺病变病理资料进行分析对比，对其中CNB诊断为浸润性癌后行术前化疗的87例进行p53、c-erbB-2、ER和PR免疫组织化学（SP法）检测，并与观测化疗后癌组织形态学变化结合分析。结果235例中CNB诊为乳腺癌者204例，与手术后病理良恶性符合率为100％；CNB诊为非浸润性癌中60％病例术后病理发现浸润性癌成分；CNB诊为不典型增生者中50％术后病理证实为癌；CNB组织与术后常规组织免疫组织化学表达阳性率一致，差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）；有、无化疗反应的病例p53、c-erbB-2表达差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）；p53和c-erBb-2阳性病例多无明显化疗后形态学改变。结论CNB对乳腺病变是一种有效且创伤轻微的诊断方法，但它仍有一定局限性，用CNB组织做免疫组织化学检测有较为重要的临床意义。

Is magnesium neuroprotective following global and focal cerebral ischaemia? A review of published studies.

Neuroprotective activity with magnesium associated with animal models of cerebral ischaemia, seizure, perinatal hypoxia/ischaemia, subarachnoid haemorrhage and traumatic brain injury has provided the justification for clinical stroke trials. However, the recent IMAGES stroke clinical trial found magnesium to be largely ineffective. Hence, due to the negative stroke trial outcome, current FAST-MAG trial and our own experience with magnesium in cerebral ischaemia animal models, we thought it prudent to review these preclinical and clinical studies. We reviewed nine studies describing the use of magnesium following global cerebral ischaemia and fourteen following focal cerebral ischaemia. Four global ischaemia and six focal ischaemia studies did not show a significant neuroprotective effect with magnesium. In the majority of positive magnesium studies animal body temperature was not monitored post-ischaemia. Thus the effects of post-ischaemic hypothermia cannot be ruled out as a confounding factor in positive magnesium cerebral ischaemia studies. Moreover, data from our own laboratory indicates that magnesium is only neuroprotective when combined with post-ischaemic hypothermia. These data provide a possible explanation of why the IMAGES trial was largely unsuccessful, as current stroke patient management does not involve hypothermia induction. Future preclinical and clinical cerebral ischaemia trials with magnesium should consider combining treatment with mild hypothermia.
