Triterpenoid saponins, new metalloprotease snake venom inhibitors isolated from Pentaclethra macroloba.

We report here the antiproteolytic and antihemorrhagic properties of triterpenoid saponin inhibitors, named macrolobin-A and B, from Pentaclethra macroloba, against Bothrops snake venoms. The inhibitors were able to neutralize the hemorrhagic, fibrin(ogen)olytic, and proteolytic activities of class P-I and P-III metalloproteases isolated from B. neuwiedi and B. jararacussu venoms. Clotting and fibrinogenolytic activities induced by snake venoms and isolated thrombin-like enzymes were partially inhibited. Furthermore, the potential use of these inhibitors to complement antivenom therapy as an alternative treatment and/or used as molecular models for development of new therapeutical agents in the treatment of snake bite envenomations needs to be evaluated in future studies.     

高渗盐液和抗休克裤合并应用对大鼠早期休克的影响

采用高渗盐液，抗休克裤及两者联用纠正大鼠早期失血性休克。结果显示，单独使用ＡＳＴ，仅见动脉血压短时间回升，而单用ＨＴＳ，血压则明显回升。若先用ＡＳＴ，再注入ＨＴＳ，也能取得明显效果。失血休克大鼠血浆纤维连接蛋白水平显著降低，各组之间均无差异血浆脂质过氧化物－丙二醛的含量明显增加，且在ＨＴＳ组，ＨＴＳ＋ＡＳＴ组与ＮＳ对照组之间有显著差异。     

Periradicular healing in response to Diaket root-end filling material with and without tricalcium phosphate

The healing of the periradicular tissues was evaluated when the polyvinyl resin Diaket with and without tricalcium phosphate was used as surgical root-end filling material. Non-surgical root canal treatment was performed on 56 mandibular premolar roots in mongrel dogs. Following root-end resection, root-end cavity preparations were filled with Diaket, the comparative material, or Diaket in combination with tricalcium phosphate, the experimental material. Postsurgically, healing of the tissues adjacent to the filling materials and in the surrounding surgical site were evaluated at 30 and 60 days. There was virtually no statistically significant difference between the experimental and comparative group at or within the 30- or 60-day period with regard to inflammation, connective tissue formation, root-end encapsulation, cementum formation, or bone apposition. Findings suggest that cementogenesis occurred over both materials. The overall healing of the periradicular tissues was favourable.     

Chronic modifications of lung and heart development in glucocorticoid-treated newborn rats exposed to hyperoxia or room air

We assessed the mechanics and morphology of the lung in 165 rats treated neonatally with either room air (RA), O₂, RA + steroids, or O₂, + steroids. Newborn Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly assigned to these groups. O₂,-exposure (0.96-1.0 FiO₂ lasted 5 days, and dexamethasone treatment consisted of eight daily S.C. injections of drug or buffer in successive doses of 0.5,0.4.0.3,0.2,0.1, 0.1. 0.1. and 0.1 mg/kg. At 58 days, right ventricular systolic pressure (RVP) was measured. At 60 days, all rats were sacrificed for obtaining lung weight and DNA, saline pressure-volume (P-V) curves, and morphometry. We weighed right ventricles (RV) and left ventricles + septa (LV). Hyperoxia alone did not, but steroid decreased survival rate to 79.4% (95.3% in RA rats, P < 0.02). Only 21 of 40 (52%) O₂ + steroids rats survived, less than in both RA groups (P < 0.001). RV weight, RVP and muscularization of alveolar duct arteries were significantly increased in O₂ vs. RA rats. In RA + steroids rats, weight of the LV was decreased but RV, RVP, and lung vasculature were not affected. These effects were additive in the O₂ + steroid group. Wet lung weights and DNA were increased for RA + steroid rats over all others. O₂ and steroids shifted the P-V curve to the left and O₂+ steroids still further. Maximal lung volume increased significantly with RA + steroids and still further in O₂ + steroids but not in O₂ alone. O₂ and steroids significantly increased the mean linear intercept and O₂ + steroids even more so. In O₂- and steroid-treated rats, the parenchymal air space increased. In conclusion, both neonatal hyperoxia and steroid administration caused aberrations in the growth of lung and connective tissue. The effects of the two were additive. The vascular system, maximal lung volume, and DNA responded differently, presumably by different modes of action. Pediatr Pulmonol. 1993; 16:81–88. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Effects of different doses of alkaline citrate on urine composition and crystallization of calcium oxalate

Summary Prophylactic treatment with alkaline citrate in patients with recurrent calcium oxalate (CaOx) stone disease results in reduced CaOx supersaturation and increased urinary citrate. The effects of a single evening dose were compared with those of two and three daily doses in six recurrent CaOx stone formers with hypercalciuria, hypocitraturia or raised calcium/citrate quotients. While on a standardized hospital diet the patients were given 7.5 g (28 mmol) of sodium potassium citrate (URALYT-U) in one, two, and three doses. Fractional urine collections during 24 hours were analyzed for pH, composition, and crystallization risk (CR). All dosage regimens had favourable effects on urinary calcium, citrate, calcium/citrate quotients, and CaOx-CR. The most sustained effect was recorded with three divided doses. Single evening doses resulted in the most pronounced effects between 22.00–06.00 h, thereby counteracting the increased risk of CaOx crystallization during that period. In terms of 24 h urine composition the best effect was recorded with alkaline citrate administered three times daily, but because of the favourable response by a single evening dose between 22.00–06.00 h the assumption was made that this dosage regimen might be sufficient to reduce the risk of CaOx crystallization and stone formation. However, the validity of such an assumption can only be established by long-term clinical studies.

高渗盐水和6%HES溶液对犬术后细胞因子的影响

目的 观察高渗盐水(7.5%NaCl溶液)、6%HES溶液(羟乙基淀粉溶液)对腹部手术后犬血清细胞因子分泌的影响.方法 18只麻醉犬全麻下行腹部手术后随机分成3组,输注不同液体并同时予以控制血压至基础值的60%(MAP65mmHg):4ml/kg 7.5%NaCl溶液(HS组);输注15ml/kg 6%HES溶液(HES组);C组(对照组)单纯降压组.在麻醉开始前(B),手术开始2小时(T1),液体输注完2小时(T2),术后第1天(T3),第2天(T4)抽取颈外静脉血3ml,检测血清中IL-2,IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,TNF-α的浓度.结果 对照组:各前炎因子TNF-α、IL-2、IL-6、IL-8随时间逐渐上升,至T3达到高峰,T4明显下降,但仍显著高于正常值(P＜0.05).HS组和HES组TNF-α、IL-2、IL-6、IL-8在T3时均明显低于对照组,T4时由低到高依次为,HS组、HES组、对照组.HS组术后的IL-10水平升高,在T3达到最高值22.5 mmol/L,高于对照组(P＜0.05).结论 HS溶液与6%HES溶液均可抑制腹部手术后犬致炎因子IL-2、IL-6、IL-8、TNF-α的升高.HS溶液还可使抗炎因子IL-10分泌增加,减轻术后的炎症反应.
