MR diffusion-weighed imaging of rabbit liver

AIM: To study the techniques of MR diffusion-weighed imaging (DWI) for normal rabbit liver. METHODS: After 15 normal New Zealand white rabbits and one New Zealand white rabbit implanted with VX-2 tumor were anesthetized with 3% soluble pentobarbitone, DWI was performed respectively for different b values, repetition times (TR) or thicknesses, when other parameters were the same and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed respectively, or with different field of views (FOV) or coil when other parameters were the same. The distinction between groups was analyzed by SPSS10.0 with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), quality index (QI) or signal-noise ratio (SNR). RESULTS: As b value increased, liver ADC, QI and SNR of DWI became smaller and simultaneously (F=292.87, 156.1, 88.23, P<0.01). QI of DWI was high, when b value was 10, 50 or 100 respectively, but the distinction between them was insignificant; when b value was 800, QI and SNR of DWI were low. QI and SNR of DWI had no significant difference between TR=4000, 6000 and 8000. QI of DWI with 2 mm thickness was bigger than that with 5 mm thickness (t=3.04, P<0.01), but SNR of DWI with 2 mm thickness was significantly smaller (t=-17.86, P<0.01). SNR of MRI with knee joint coil was obviously bigger than that with cranium coil [t=-5.77 (T1WI) or -4.02 (T2WI), P<0.01], but QI of MRI was smaller on the contrary [t=7.10 (T1WI) or 3.97 (T2WI), P<0.01]. When FOV was enlarged gradually, SNR of MRI increased [F=85.81 (T1WI) or 221.96 (T2WI), P<0.01], but QI firstly increased, then decreased [F=68.67 (T1WI) or 69.46 (T2WI), P<0.01] and QI of MRI was the biggest when FOV was 20 cm脳15 cm. CONCLUSION: The scanning technique is very important in DWI of rabbit iiver and the overall quality of DWI with b (100 s/mm~2), thickness (2 mm), cranium coils and FOV (20 cm×15 cm) was best in our study, when other parameters were the same.     

Myocardial injury following endogenous catecholamine release in rabbits

Catecholamines (CAT) given in large doses produce cardiomyopathic changes in several animal species. This study was designed to determine if endogenous release can also induce cardiac injury. Rabbits were infused with doses of tyramine (TYR), ranging from 200 to 500 micrograms/min/kg, i.v. for 90 min. Arterial pressure and heart rate were measured, as were total CAT concentrations, blood gases, pH and glucose. Two days later the animals were killed and cardiac injury assessed using a histological scoring system. All data were compared with controls given saline. Initial CAT averaged 452 pg/ml, rose to 2890 pg/ml after starting TYR, 500 micrograms/min/kg, and remained elevated for the duration of infusion. Circulating CAT levels were a function of TYR dose, and bore a linear relationship to the histological score (P less than 0.001). Development of lesions was unaltered by beta 1 blockade with practolol, but sharply reduced by alpha blockade with phentolamine (P less than 0.01). Pretreatment with insulin also reduced lesion formation, but diabetic (alloxan) rabbits showed no greater CAT injury. It is concluded that endogenous release of CAT induces myocardial injury in the rabbit in a dose-dependent manner. This is unrelated to myocardial O2 demand, and microvascular pathology was absent. Activation of alpha adrenergic pathways is likely the dominant or exclusive mechanism.     

高脂饮食上调兔子血管内膜与血清炎性因子表达

目的:分析高脂饮食致肥胖或动脉粥样硬化兔子血管内膜白细胞介素-1β(IL-1β)和肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)水平变化。方法:12只健康新西兰大白兔,分为普通饮食组(OD组)和高脂饮食组(HFD组)。依据动脉粥样硬化造模方法,高脂饮食喂养兔8周后,获取兔子血液或颈动脉组织。检测血细胞相关参数和血液生化参数及动脉内膜的厚度,同时用ELISA检测IL-1β和TNF-α水平,Western Blot法检测血管内膜IL-1β和TNF-α蛋白的表达。比较分析两组各检测参数的差异。结果:两组兔子外周血细胞检测项目无统计学差异(P>0.05)。HFD组脂质检测指标甘油三酯(TG)、总胆固醇(TC)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)和载脂蛋白B(ApoB)均显著高于OD组(P<0.05,P<0.01),而高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)则显著低于OD组(P<0.05)。其它血液生化项目在两组间的水平无显著差异(P>0.05)。ELISA检测OD组血浆IL-1β和TNF-α的水平显著低于HFD组(P<0.05)。以高脂饮食喂养健康兔子发现HFD组兔血管内膜的厚度明显高于OD组(P<0.05),且血管内膜炎性因子IL-1β和TNF-α蛋白表达具有同样的趋势。结论:以高脂饮食喂养健康兔子发现动脉粥样硬化模型兔子炎性因子IL-1β和TNF-α在血液中和血管内膜均有表达增高,或可与动脉粥样硬化相关。     

The effects of dexamethasone in vitro on the production of collagenase and inhibitor by synovial and cartilage explants from the joints of rabbits with a proliferative arthritis

Summary Using a rabbit model arthritis we have investigated the ability of dexamethasone to alter the production of collagenase and the specific metallo-proteinase inhibitor TIMP by explants of synovium and cartilage in vitro. The patterns of collagenase and TIMP production by untreated explants from arthritic joint tissues in culture were similar to those described previously [1, 2]. Dexamethasone dramatically altered the patterns of production of collagenase and TIMP. At a dose of 10 nM, or above, the patterns of production by treated synovium resembled those of normal rabbit synovium: collagenase production was suppressed and TIMP increased compared with untreated arthritic synovium. The levels of latent collagenase in cartilage also fell with increasing doses of dexamethasone and TIMP levels were higher, although normal levels were not reached.These experiments have been conducted as a prelude to testing the effects of various anti-rheumatic drugs in vivo, and attempting to correlate changes in clinical parameters with the subsequent production of collagenase and TIMP in vitro. The data are discussed in relation to the therapeutic use of corticosteroids and to their mode of action on joint tissues.

Histomorphometric analysis of the temporal bone after change of direction of force vector of mandible: an experimental study in rabbits

Objectives

The present study aimed at performing a histological evaluation of the response of temporal bone tissue to a change of direction of the force vector of the mandible in relation to the base of the skull.

Material and methods

Adult rabbits were assigned into four groups with two control and four experimental animals in each group. Experimental animals underwent surgery, which resulted in a change of direction of the force vector on the right temporomandibular joint. Samples were collected after 15, 30, 60 and 90 days for histological analysis.

Results

In the two-way analysis of variance, the effect of group and time was statistically significant (p<0.001). Additionally, a statistically significant interaction between group and time was observed (p<0.001). Control animals showed normal growth and development of the temporal region. In the experimental group, the change in direction of the force vector of the mandible induced significant changes in the temporal bone, with a bone modeling process, which suggests growth of this cranial structure.

Conclusions

The methodology used in this experiment allows us to conclude that the change in direction of the force vector of the mandible in relation to the skull base induces remodeling and modeling processes in the temporal bone. The resumption of normal oral functions after bone healing of the mandibular fracture appears to increase cell activation in the remodeling and modeling of the temporal bone structure. The observation of areas of temporal bone modeling shows the relevance of further investigation on the correlation between the joint structures and craniofacial growth and development.
