老龄大鼠非细菌性多器官功能不全综合征模型的建立

目的以酵母多糖腹腔注射建立老龄大鼠多器官功能不全综合征(MODSE)模型,并进一步与成年多器官功能不全综合征(MODS)模型作比较.方法成年和老龄SD大鼠,腹腔注射不同剂量酵母多糖,以血气、血生化和心、肝、脑、肺、肾等各主要脏器的光镜检查等为指标,观察上述各主要脏器的功能和形态学的变化.结果与成年和老龄正常对照组相比,成年和老龄不同酵母多糖组血气和血生化指标均出现不同程度的改变,肺、心、肝、脑、肾等主要脏器出现明显病理改变.在相同酵母多糖浓度下,老龄组呼吸功能、心脏功能和肾脏功能降低较相应成年组重;在复制模型程度相似的情况下,与成年大鼠相比,老龄大鼠有死亡时间延迟的趋势.结论酵母多糖腹腔注射可复制MODSE模型,以0.5 g/kg腹腔注射最为理想,该模型可用于MODSE机制和实验治疗学的探讨.

Mice aorta loop grafting： A new model which separate vascular rejection and neointimal formation in chronic rejection

To study the cause and mechanism of transplantation vasculopathy which characterized by accelerated graft arteriosclerosis ( AGA), we estabfished a mouse aorta graft model. Methods: A segment of thoracic aortas of B10. A (2R) mice were transplanted to C57BL/10 mice abdominal aorta by end to side anastomoses. The different time point collected grafts were analyzed by morphological, histochemical and electro microscopic methods. Results:Rejection was manifested as a concentric progressive destruction of the smooth muscle cells. In contrast, the endothelial inflammation and subsequent ncointimal proliferation characteristic of AGA was localized to the regions of turbulent flow, i.e. the junction of the graft with the recipient aorta. Conclusion: This model separates the processes of rejec-tion and neointimal formation which usually manifested together in the lesion of AGA, elucidate that different mecha-nisms control vascular rejection and neointimal formation in chronic rejection.     

Unsupervised fuzzy clustering analysis supports behavioral cutoff criteria in an animal model of posttraumatic stress disorder.

BACKGROUND: Unsupervised fuzzy clustering (UFC) analysis is a mathematical technique that groups together objects in the multidimensional feature space according to a specified similarity measurement, thereby yielding clusters of similar data points that can be represented by a set of prototypes or centroids. METHODS: Since clinical studies of mental disorders distinguish between affected and unaffected individuals, we designed an inclusion/exclusion criteria (cutoff behavioral criteria [CBC]) approach for animal behavioral studies. The effect of classifying the study population into clearly affected versus clearly unaffected individuals according to behaviors on two behavioral paradigms was statistically significant. RESULTS: Here the raw data from previous studies were subjected to UFC algorithms as a means of objectively testing the validity of the concept of the CBC for our experimental model. The first UFC algorithm yielded two clearly discrete clusters, found to consist almost exclusively of the exposed animals in the one and unexposed animals in the other. The second algorithm yielded three clusters corresponding to animals designated as clearly affected, partially affected, and clearly unaffected. The algorithm for physiological data in addition to behavioral data failed to elicit discrete clusters. CONCLUSIONS: The UFC analysis yielded data that support the conceptual contention of the CBC and lends additional validity to our previous behavioral studies.     

Trehalose protects against ocular surface disorders in experimental murine dry eye through suppression of apoptosis

The disaccharide trehalose is a key element involved in anhydrobiosis (the capability of surviving almost complete dehydration) in many organisms. Its presence also confers resistance to desiccation and high osmolarity in bacterial and human cells by protecting proteins and membranes from denaturation. The present study used a novel murine dry eye model induced by controlled low-humidity air velocity to determine whether topically applied trehalose could heal ocular surface epithelial disorders caused by ocular surface desiccation. In addition, the efficacy of 87.6 mM trehalose eyedrops was compared with that of 20% serum, the efficacy of which has been well documented. Mice ocular surface epithelial disorders were induced by exposure of murine eyes to continuous controlled low-humidity air velocity in an intelligently controlled environmental system (ICES) for 21 days, which accelerated the tear evaporation. The mice were then randomized into three groups: the control group received PBS (0.01M) treatment; a second group received 87.6 mM trehalose eyedrops treatment; and the third group received mice serum eyedrops treatment. Each treatment was administered as a 10 μl dose every 6 h for 14 days. The resultant changes in corneal barrier function and histopathologic examination of cornea and conjunctiva were analyzed and the level of apoptosis on the ocular surface was assessed using active caspase-3. After 14 days of treatment, the corneal fluorescein staining area, the ruffling and desquamating cells on the apical corneal epithelium, as well as the apoptotic cells on ocular surface epithelium had significantly reduced in eyes treated with trehalose compared with those treated with serum and PBS. In contrast, after 14 days of treatment, improvements in the thickness of the corneal epithelium, the squamous metaplasia in conjunctival epithelium and the number of goblet cells of the conjunctiva were less marked in eyes treated with trehalose compared with serum. These results demonstrated that trehalose could improve the appearance of ocular surface epithelial disorders due to desiccation through suppression of apoptosis. Trehalose produces some of the same responses as serum upon topical application and can maintain corneal health.     

改良犬原位背驮式肝移植的解剖学观察

目的观察犬肝脏解剖学特点,探索建立改良的犬同种异体原位背驮式肝移植模型。方法对15只杂交犬的肝脏进行活体和尸体标本的解剖观察。结果犬肝共分7叶,门静脉分左右支进入肝脏,门静脉左支供应约70%肝组织(Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ、Ⅳ、Ⅴ叶),门静脉右支供应约30%肝组织(Ⅵ、Ⅶ叶),分别阻断门静脉左、右支后5 min左右门静脉压力达到峰值,并迅速回复至门静脉正常压力值上限范围内;肝动脉和胆管与门静脉分支伴行进入各肝叶;左肝静脉粗大,可以作为肝静脉重建的流出道,其余3~6支肝静脉可以分别结扎,肝后下腔静脉易于与肝脏分离。结论犬肝的解剖学特点适宜于建立改良的原位背驮式肝移植模型。

子宫内膜异位症猕猴动物模型的建立

目的构建子宫内膜异位症(EM)猕猴动物模型。方法选择5只健康、月经规律的雌性猕猴(4只实验猴、1只对照猴),在月经第8~15天,雌激素高峰的第3~5天,手术将猕猴的子宫内膜种植到盆腔子宫腔以外的部位,对照猕猴用大网膜取代内膜种植。在术后第2、4个月动物月经周期的第8~15天开腹或腹腔镜探查。结果术后第2个月探查,4只实验猴中,3只异位内膜种植存活,其中2只形成异位囊肿。术后第4个月,对2只已形成EM的猕猴行腹腔镜再次探查,其盆腔粘连,异位内膜生长情况与术后第2个月基本相似;3只形成EM的猕猴精神状态、饮食、体质量增长情况均较对照猕猴差,2只发生肠套叠死亡。结论本研究根据种植学说原理成功地构建了子宫内膜异位症猕猴动物模型,但猕猴的个体差异是模型是否成功的一个关键因素,因而认为遗传因素是子宫内膜异位症发病中的另一重要机制,子宫内膜异位生长对机体的整体机能有较为明显的影响。
