Feasibility of establishing cerebral ischemia models by using aerocyst-blocking bilateral ascending pharyngeal artery of piglets Imaging assessment

BACKGROUND: The cerebral ischemia and ischemia/reperfusion animal models are used to simulate the human cerebrovascular diseases is one of the popular topics of neurological science recently. To study the pathophysiology, pathogenesis, prophylaxis and treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases and to establish the ideal animal model that is the most similar to the human cerebral ischemia, are the topics that the people generally cared about. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of aerocyst-blocking bilateral ascending pharyngeal artery on the establishment of cerebral ischemia models by using digital subtraction angiography (DSA), magnetic resonance diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and magnetic resonance perfusion-weighted imaging (PWI). DESIGN: Repetitive measure animal experiment. SETTING: Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Dalian University. MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out in the Animal Laboratory (Provincial Laboratory), Zhongshan Hospital of Dalian Univeristy from January to May 2006. A total of 14 domestic piglets, of 6 months old, weighing 12–15 kg, of either gender, were selected from Animal Experimental Center, Dalian University. Multistar T.O.P digital subtraction angiography machine was provided by Siemens Company, German. METHODS: Aerocyst-blocking bilateral ascending pharyngeal artery was used to establish cerebral ischemia models. And then, Multistar T.O.P. DSA was used for imaging of cerebral vessels before blocking, during blocking and at 0.5 and 2 hours after ischemia perfusion. GE Signa 1.5 T supraconduction magnetic resonance imaging was used for DWI examination; in addition, PWI was used based on focal sites and areas. Otherwise, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used to detect signal changes of T1WI and T2WI in ischemic areas. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Analytic results of DSA, DWI, PWI and MRI. RESULTS: All 14 experimental piglets were involved in the final analysis. ① DSA: The blood flow of bilateral ascending pharyngeal arteries and its branch were blocked at blocking phase, which restored 0.5 and 2 hours after reperfusion. ② DWI and PWI: There were no observable abnormalities in PWI and DWI at pre-blocking. Abnormal increased signals were found on both DWI and PWI at during and post-blocking. There were reduction in ADC and rCBF and delay in rTTP at all time points except pre-blocking. ③ MRI: There were no abnormal signals observable at any time of pre- and post-blocking in T1WI and T2WI. CONCLUSION: It is feasible to establish this kind of animal experimental models, and it can simulate the ischemic state; meanwhile, the existence and extent can be showed directly by DSA, DWI, and PWI.     

留置双J管病人的观察与护理

双J管又称双猪尾管，因两端卷曲，每端形似猪尾而得名。由于其支架和内引流作用，能解除输尿管炎症、水肿造成的暂时性梗阻，防止术后伤口漏尿和输尿管狭窄。同时，集合系统不与外界直接相通，可避免肾造瘘所引起的出血、感染，因无外引流管的限制和不适感，病人可早期下床活动，有利于术后康复。2004年7月-2005年2月我院先后为58例病人应用双J导管．效果良好，现报告如下。     

谷氨酸诱导体外培养的鸡胚脊髓神经细胞释放NO

用鸡胚脊髓神经细胞的原代培养,测定细胞中亚硝酸盐的含量,研究了谷氨酸(Glu)对原代培养神经细胞中NO的影响。结果表明,谷氨酸作用于原代培养的鸡胚脊髓神经细胞,在诱导神经细胞释放乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)的同时,还可诱导细胞释放一氧化氮(NO)。如先用NO合成酶抑制剂L-NOARG作用细胞,再加入Glu,则发现L-NOARG能降低Glu导致的培养液中LDH活性升高。提示NO可能参与介导Glu的神经毒性作用。     

神经生长因子对小鼠突触体内Ca^2＋水平的调节作用

观察了多次海马内微注射ＮＧＦ对小鼠突触体内游离钙水平的影响，并在离体情况下观察ＮＧＦ对ＥＧＴＡ和ＣａＣｌ２分别造成突触体内低钙和高钙状态的调节作用。结果如下：（１）在体实验表明，一定剂量的ＮＧＦ可显著降低老年小鼠海马突触体内游离钙水平（Ｐ＜００５）；（２）离体实验表明，当突触体游离钙水平降低时，适当剂量的ＮＧＦ具有升高游离钙水平的作用；而突触体内游离钙水平升高时，则ＮＧＦ有降低游离钙水平的作用。提示ＮＧＦ对游离钙水平的双向调节作用可能是ＮＧＦ改善老年性记忆衰退的作用机制。     

SODIUM EFFECTS ON THE FIBRILLATORYPROPENSITY OF NON-IONIC CONTRAST MEDIA

Removing sodium from standard ionic contrastmedia markedly increases the incidence of ventricu-lar fibrillation in patients undergoing coronary arvgiography. Newer nonionic contrast media, Iopa-midol (IOP), Iohexol (IOH) and Ioversol (IOV),contain only trace amounts of sodium. To determinewhether sodium influences the fibrillatory propen-sity of nonionic contrast media, we measured theprolongation in QT interval and performed program-med electrical stimulation with l,2 and 3 ventricularextra stimuli in 40 dogs during 4 ml intracoronaryinjections of IOP, IOH and IOV. Solutions of eachcontrast media with added NaCI at concentrations of0.225To, 0.45% and 0.970 were compared to stockcontrast media. The addition of NaCI markedlyincreased the amount of QT interval prolongationproduced by each contrast media. With IOP, theamount of QT interval prolongation was 40+11msec with standard IOP but was 58+11 msec with0.225'70 NaCI/IOP, 84+17 msec with 0.45'To NaCI/IOP, and 132+42 msec with 0.970 NaCl/IOP(P相似文献   

受体介导内吞和自噬同凋亡的关系

目的 观察刀豆素A(ConA)与小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞表面ConA受体结合、内吞、转运及巨噬细胞自噬、凋亡的形态学变化，以探讨受体介导内吞与自噬体形成和细胞凋亡之间的关系。方法 用辣根过氧化物酶(HRP)标记ConA(ConA-HRP)与小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞共孵育，不同时间取出部分巨噬细胞，制备电镜标本，观察。结果透射电镜观察表明：ConA的内吞属于受体介导内吞；形成的内吞体有泡状、管状及双层膜的线状等形式；双层膜的线状结构包裹部分胞质和细胞器，形成自噬体；自噬体与溶酶体融合，而后巨噬细胞凋亡。结论受体介导内吞和自噬同凋亡之间存在一定的关系。     

吡酮酸类抗菌药物的研究Ⅷ.1-对氟苯基-6-氟-1,4-二氢-4-氧-7-(1-哌嗪)噌啉-3-羧酸及其类似物的合成和构效关系

为探讨构效关系,合成了1-对氟苯基-6-氟-1,4-二氢-4-氧-7-(1-哌嗪)噌啉-3-羧酸及其喹啉、萘啶、吡啶[2,3-C]哒嗪环系类似物16个。测定了对大肠杆菌的MIC。用Hückel分子轨道理论(HMO)方法计算了四个母体环上电子密度。结果表明:环中氮的位置对药效团——3位羧基和4位羰基氧原子上电子密度的影响较大而影响其抗菌活性。喹啉、萘啶两环系的3位羧基和4位羰基氧原子上的电子密度较高,其体外抗菌活性较高;而噌啉及吡啶[2,3-C]哒嗪两环系的电子密度较低,其体外抗菌活性较低甚至消失。     

六味地黄汤对实验性糖尿病大鼠心、肝、肾组织中过氧化氢酶活性和过氧化脂质含量的影响

用四氧嘧啶诱导雄性Ｗｉｓｔａｒ大鼠为模型进行研究．结果发现，四氧嘧啶大鼠血糖明显升高，且心、肝、肾组织中过氧化氢酶活性较正常组明显降低，过氧化脂质含量在心、肝组织中明显增高，过氧化脂质与过氧化氢酶比值在心、肝、肾组织中均明显高于正常组，表明糖尿病状态下大鼠心、肝、肾组织中均自由基生成增多，氧化损伤加重．经六味地黄汤治疗后，血糖明显下降，但心、肝、肾组织中的过氧化氢酶活性无改变；而心肌中过氧化脂质含量和过氧化脂质与过氧化氢酶比值则明显降低，过氧化脂质含量和过氧化脂质与过氧化氢酶比值在肝、肾组织中无变化，表明六味地黄汤能明显清除心肌中自由基，抑制心肌中脂质过氧化，且此作用并不是通过提高过氧化氢酶活性来达到．
