Dopaminergic transmission in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus to produce acupuncture analgesia in correlation with the pituitary gland

Acupuncture analgesia (AA) caused by low frequency stimulation of the acupuncture point (AP) was abolished by hypophysectomy and adrenalectomy. Termination of the AA producing pathway from the AP to the pituitary gland was in the medial hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (M-HARN). The origin of the descending pain inhibitory system associated with AA was in the posterior HARN (P-HARN). AA in the hypophysectomized rats, and enhanced neuronal activity in the P-HARN that were abolished during acupuncture stimulation, were both restored by intraperitoneal microinjection of 0.5 mg/kg morphine or 0.1 micrograms beta-endorphin into the P-HARN during acupuncture stimulation. Of the analgesia produced by dopamine or beta-endorphin injected into the P-HARN, that caused by beta-endorphin disappeared after denervation of the M-HARN. The P-HARN neurons that responded to acupuncture stimulation also responded to iontophoretic dopamine, but not to iontophoretic morphine nor ultramicroinjected beta-endorphin. The transmission between the M-HARN and P-HARN may be dopaminergic, and beta-endorphin might presynaptically modulate this transmission. Reduction of sodium ions may have been the reason for abolition of AA after adrenalectomy.     

川芎嗪拮抗链霉素耳毒性作用及其离子通道机制

目的 研究川芎嗪（tetraethylplyrazine，TMP）拮抗链霉素耳毒性作用及其对耳蜗外毛细胞外向K^＋通道的影响，寻求两者的相关性，旨在探讨川芎嗪拮抗耳中毒作用的离子通道机制。方法 选取豚鼠60只，随机分为6组，即对照组、链霉素组、川芎嗪低浓度组、川芎嗪高浓度组、川芎嗪低浓度＋链霉素组和川芎嗪高浓度＋链霉素组，分别注射生理盐水（2．5ml/kg）、链霉素（450mg／kg）、川芎嗪（12mg／kg）、川芎嗪（60ms／ks）、川芎嗪（12mg／kg）＋链霉素（450mg／kg）、川芎嗪（60mg／kg）＋链霉素（450mg／kg），用药10天后检测各组豚鼠ABR反应阈，并采用全细胞膜片钳技术观察川芎嗪对耳蜗外毛细胞Ca^2＋敏感K^＋电流和延迟外向K^＋电流的影响。结果 结果表明川芎嗪明显降低链霉素所致的豚鼠ABR反应阈升高，提示川芎嗪具有明显的拮抗链霉素耳毒性作用；川芎嗪能明显增大豚鼠耳蜗外毛细胞Ca^2＋敏感K^＋电流和延迟外向K^＋电流，并呈浓度依赖关系。结论 川芎嗪可能通过增大K^＋通道电流而发挥其降低链霉素耳毒性作用，推测这是其抗耳毒性作用机制之一。

心内直视术中肌氨肽苷对心肌保护的临床研究

目的 :观测心内直视手术中肌氨肽苷抗心肌缺血 /再灌注损伤的作用 ,评价其心肌保护效果。 方法 :34例体外循环下行瓣膜置换术患者随机分为对照组和治疗组 ,分别于手术前、主动脉阻断前、主动脉开放即刻及主动脉开放后 2、6、12、2 4、4 8、72、96h共 10个时点从中心静脉取血 ,测定心肌肌钙蛋白I(cTnI)、乳酸脱氢酶 (LDH)、磷酸肌酸激酶 (CK)和磷酸肌酸激酶同功酶 (CK MB)水平。 结果 :术前两组的cTnI、LDH、CK、CK MB水平均在正常范围内 ,开放主动脉后 2h开始升高 ,术后 12～ 2 4h达峰值 ,随后缓慢下降。对照组术后各时点cTnI、LDH、CK、CK MB水平明显升高 (P <0 .0 5～ 0 .0 1) ;治疗组cTnI水平较术前无明显升高 (P >0 .0 5 ) ,而LDH、CK、CK MB水平较术前明显升高 (P <0 .0 5 ) ,但升高的程度明显低于对照组 (P <0 .0 5～ 0 .0 1)。 结论 :肌氨肽苷用于冷心停搏液中 ,有良好的心肌保护作用

Implantation of Active Can Implantable Defibrillators in the right Pectoral Region

Routinely the active can ICD is placed in the left side pectoral position, which theoretically gives optimal conditions for a low defibrillation threshold. Some patients, bowever, demand a right pectoral position, which possibly could result in a bigger defibrillation threshold. A right pectoral position was used in 3 of 85 active can ICDs implanted in our institution from 1994. the DFT was 12 J in two and 18 f in one patient. Thus, right pectoral implantation is feasible and offers an alternative approach in selected patients.
