Increased response of renal perfusion to the antioxidant vitamin C in type 2 diabetes.

BACKGROUND: Reactive oxygen species play a major role in the development of endothelial dysfunction. It is as yet unspecified whether increased oxidative stress contributes to endothelial dysfunction of the renal vasculature in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: Renal haemodynamics were studied in 20 patients with type 2 diabetes and arterial hypertension (age 62 +/- 5 years) and 20 non-diabetic hypertensive patients at baseline and following infusions of the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, N(G)-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA; 4.25 mg/kg); the substrate of nitric oxide synthase, L-arginine (100 mg/kg); and the antioxidant, vitamin C (3 g, co-infused with L-arginine 100 mg/kg). RESULTS: The response of renal plasma flow (RPF) to L-NMMA (-54 +/- 62 and -45 +/- 42 ml/min/1.73 m(2); P = NS) and L-arginine (+46 +/- 36 and +49 +/- 25 ml/min/1.73 m(2); P = NS) was not different between diabetic and non-diabetic patients. In contrast, vitamin C induced a more pronounced increase in RPF in diabetic than in non-diabetic patients when co-infused with L-arginine (+71+/-47 and +43+/-33 ml/min/1.73 m(2); P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The difference in the response of renal perfusion to an antioxidant suggests increased formation of reactive oxygen species and thereby reduced nitric oxide bioavailability in the renal vasculature of patients with type 2 diabetes.     

次声90 dB和130 dB致大鼠肝细胞损伤的超微结构改变

目的：探讨相同频率(16 Hz)不同声压水平(90 dB与130 dB)次声作用下大鼠肝细胞超微结构损伤特点及意义．方法：将雄性SD大鼠66只，随机分为对照组(6只)、实验1(90 dB)和实验2(130 dB)组．根据次声作用时间，实验1，2组各分为1，7，14，21和28 d时间组，每组6只．在相同频率不同声压水平次声环境下每日暴露1次，每次2 h；取肝左右叶两个部位组织用戊二醛和锇酸固定，透射电镜下观察肝超微结构变化．结果：1 d组：90 dB环境作用下肝超微结构无明显损伤变化，130 dB环境作用下肝细胞内有脂滴出现；7，14和21 d组不同环境和天数次声作用后肝损伤出现脂滴逐渐增多和肝细胞部分变性坏死改变，发现肝细胞内的各种结构随次声作用次数增多其损伤程度逐渐加重；28 d组其损伤程度均有一定程度恢复．结论：次声下可以对肝细胞超微结构造成不同程度损伤，28 d后肝细胞对次声的损伤作用存在着一定适应现象．     

细胞移植用于心肌修复--细胞心肌成形术的研究进展

由于心肌细胞的增殖能力很低，细胞移植作为一种新的治疗方法用于改善心功能及心肌活力已受到广泛的关注。目前已有胚胎干细胞、骨髓间充质干细胞和内皮干细胞在体外诱导分化为心肌细胞；动物实验中用于心肌移植的细胞有胚胎心肌细胞、造血干细胞、骨髓间充质干细胞、骨骼肌成肌细胞、内皮干细胞、肝干细胞和神经干细胞。其中成肌细胞移植用来改善心肌梗死后的心脏功能，已有临床报道，并取得成功。     

硒抑制镍诱导的人肺成纤维细胞的DNA损伤

目的　探讨三氧化二镍(Ni2O3)对人肺成纤维细胞(human lung fibroblasts,HLF)的DNA损伤作用以及Na2SeO3的保护作用。方法　应用单细胞凝胶电泳(single cell gel electrophoresis,SCGE)检测DNA损伤。结果　Ni2O3 处理HLF细胞4 h,SCGE检测出DNA损伤程度高于对照组,差异有显著性(P<0.01)。而Ni2O3 Na2SeO3 处理组DNA损伤程度低于Ni2O3 组,差异有显著性(P<0.01)。结论　硒可抑制镍诱导的人肺成纤维细胞的DNA损伤。

Neuroprotection with felbamate: a 7- and 28-day study in transient forebrain ischemia in gerbils

The use of glutamate antagonists and GABA agonists may protect neurons from the effects of transient ischemia. Felbamate is a new antiepileptic drug with glutamate antagonist and GABA agonist properties, We tested the efficacy of felbamate in a gerbil model of transient forebrain ischemia. Damage assessment was done with silver staining at 7 and 28 days after 5 min of bilateral carotid occlusion, Cerebral cortex, hippocampus (CA1 and CA4), thalamus and striatum were evaluated on a 4-point scoring system, The animals sacrificed at 28 days were also tested in a water-maze task to assess recovery of function, The initial dose of felbamate (300 mg/kg) was given 30 min before the ischemic insult in one set of animals and 30 min after the insult in another set of animals. There were 8 animals tested per group (total: 48 animals). There was significant neuronal protection with the use of felbamate, both before and after ischemia in all regions of the brain. Protection was seen in animals sacrificed at 7 and 28 days, Protection was moderate when felbamate was used before ischemia. It was highly significant when felbamate was given 30 min after the insult. Behavioral studies however did not show any difference in the felbamate treated animals versus the saline treated controls. The structural protection with felbamate was very significant when used in the post-ischemic period. This window for protection merits further evaluation in relation to the clinical setting of stroke.
