"同病异治"原则与中医缺血脑保护药物干预策略

溶栓治疗和神经保护治疗是缺血性脑卒中的两大药物干预策略,其中广义的神经保护治疗包括神经保护和神经修复两种方法,而目前存在的中西医结合缺血性脑卒中的药物干预策略可能也存在多层次、分阶段干预的特点,体现了祖国医学"同病异治"的原则,我们认为现有的缺血脑保护方法主要针对缺血性脑卒中的不同发展阶段,而神经修复的研究,尤其是中医药促进神经干细胞再生的研究,可能蕴涵着巨大的发展潜力和无限商机.     

Controlled release of sugar and toxicant from a novel device for controlling pest insects

A novel biodegradable device, designed for long-lasting residual effectiveness of feeding stimulant (sugar) and insecticide (dimethoate) against apple maggot flies and other insects, was formulated. The device is an 8-cm diameter fruit-mimicking sphere, consisting of 42–50% sugar entrapped in a mixture of gelatinized corn flour and wheat flour in the presence of glycerin, and coated with a layer of latex paint containing dimethoate and sugar. We found that the outer layer of paint prevents cracking of the sphere upon drying and creates a barrier to control the release of both sugar and dimethoate. Releases of each ingredient were screened first by chemical analysis and then by bioassays in the laboratory and in field cages against apple maggot flies. Chemical analysis demonstrated strong potential for controlled release of water-soluble feeding stimulant and water-insoluble insecticide measured as a function of the amount of rainfall and duration of exposure time. Field results showed greater than 70% insecticidal activity after 11 weeks of sphere exposure in an orchard. This device has the potential to be used for a variety of insect-control applications through manipulating its shape, color and texture into forms known to be attractive to target insects, and by employing various toxicants designed to be effective against such insects.     

Cardioprotective effects of stimulation of peripheral μ-opiate receptors and the role of opiatergic mechanisms in the pathogenesis of stress-induced heart damage

Immobilization induces stress damage to the heart. DAGO, an agonist of μ-opiate receptors potentiates, while an agonist of peripheral μ-opiate receptors prevents this damage. Naltrexone reduces, while methylnaltrexone, an inhibitor of peripheral μ-opiate receptors, potentiates the stress-induced damage to the heart. Other opiate ligands have no effect on heart damage. It is suggested that the stress-induced damage to the heart is promoted by activation of central μ-opiate receptors and prevented by stimulation of peripheral μ-opiate receptors.

Temporal Lobe Epileptogenesis and Epilepsy in the Developing Brain: Bridging the Gap Between the Laboratory and the Clinic. Progression, But in What Direction?

Summary:  The origins of human mesial temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal sclerosis are still not well understood. Hippocampal sclerosis and temporal lobe epileptogenesis involve a series of pathologies including hippocampal neuronal loss and gliosis, axonal reorganization, and maybe hippocampal neoneurogenesis. However, the causality of these events is unclear as well as their relation to the factors that may precipitate epileptogenesis. Significant differences between temporal lobe epileptogenesis in the adult and immature brain may require differential approaches. Hereditary factors also may participate in some cases of hippocampal sclerosis. The key point is to identify the significance of these age-dependent changes and to design preventive treatments. Novel strategies for the prevention and treatment of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal sclerosis may include rational use of neuroprotective agents, hormonotherapy, immunizations, and immunotherapy.     

肝钳与肝门阻断的肝损害及其防治的实验研究

本实验观察不同阻断时刻肝钳与肝门阻断的肝损害以及预防性应用抗氧化剂的缓解作用。结果表明：（１）ＳＧＰＴ、ＴＢ在肝钳组的变化比肝门阻断组表现得更为一过性。而肝门阻断给药组的改变要比非给药组的轻微且恢复得快。（２）肝门阻断时，ＭＤＡ含量显著升高，机体的Ｔ－ＡＯＣ和ＳＯＤ下降。而给药组可明显减轻上述改变。（３）随着肝门阻断时间的延长，肝组织损害也相应加重，抗氧化剂的给予缓解了肝缺血和再灌注造成的组织损害。肝钳组由于健肝血供未受干扰，因此，不同阻断时刻肝组织学形态与对照组相似无甚改变。结论：（１）肝钳较肝门阻断的肝损害轻，且实用安全。（２）肝门阻断预防性使用抗氧化剂，可明显减轻肝缺血再灌注损害。（３）肝门阻断时经门静脉较外周静脉输注抗氧化剂，其保护作用更直接、明显

A protease inhibitor attenuates gastric erosions and microcirculatory disturbance in the early period after thermal injury in rats

The effects of camostat mesilate, a synthetic serine protease inhibitor on gastric microcirculation and active oxygen species generated by leucocytes from the gastric and jugular veins in the early period after thermal injury were assessed. Male Wistar rats were anaesthetized and a 30% full skin-thickness dorsal burn was inflicted. Camostat mesilate (100 mg/kg) was dissolved in distilled water and administered orally to rats 40 min before thermal injury (the camostat group). The control animals (the vehicle group) were administered distilled water orally. Rolling leucocytes as well as Monastral blue B deposits in venules were observed using in vivo microscopy. Active oxygen species were measured by chemiluminescence. Camostat mesilate decreased the total length of gastric erosion, venular deposits of Monastral blue B, and rolling of leucocytes in venules, and relatively increased luminol-dependent chemiluminescence activity generated by zymosan-stimulated leucocytes 15 min after thermal injury. These results suggest that serine proteases are involved in the formation of gastric erosions and gastric microcirculatory disturbance in the early period after thermal injury.     

Neuropathology in non-human immunodeficiency virus-infected drug addicts: hypoxic brain damage after chronic intravenous drug abuse

Neuropathological studies were carried out on 180 human immunodeficiency virus-seronegative intravenous drug addicts. The findings in victims of acute heroin intoxication (n = 116) were congestion (99.1%), capillary engorgement (68.1%), and/or perivascular bleeding (68.1%) – hemodynamic processes attributable to toxic primary respiratory failure. In a high percentage of these cases (88%), cerebral edema was also present. In 18 cases of acute heroin intoxication who survived for periods of hours or days, the sole postmortem finding was ischemic nerve cell damage, resembling that typically seen in systemic hypoxia. Semiquantitative analysis revealed nerve cell loss in the hippocampal formation and/ or Purkinje cell layer in 26% of the 162 chronic drug abusers. By contrast, in nearly 80% of these cases, the hippocampus showed enhanced expression of glial fibrillary acid protein by astrocytes and/or a proliferation of microglia, demonstrated by CD68 expression. Since such reactive processes are produced by primary neuronal damage, it can be assumed that chronic intravenous drug abuse results in obviously ischemic nerve cell loss. This could be demonstrated in the hippocampus, but it must also occur throughout the whole brain. The demonstration of ischemic nerve cell damage and neuronal loss or secondary reactive alterations has not been described previously. Received: 31 March 1995 / Revised, accepted: 27 November 1995
