ObjectiveTo study the changes of levels of α subunits of stimulatory (Gsα) and inhibitory guanine nucleotide binding protein (Giα) in newborn guinea pig (0 2 days old) myocardium undergoing global ischemic reperfusion, and influences on the changes by St.Thomas Ⅱ and cold blood cardioplegic solution.MethodsThirty newborn guinea pigs were randomly assigned to three groups. GroupⅠ ( n = 10): the newborn hearts suffered by hypothermic global ischemia; group Ⅱ( n =10): the newborn hearts arrested by St. Thomas Ⅱ , and group Ⅲ ( n = 10): the newborn hearts arrested by cold blood cardioplegic solution. Levels of Gsα and Giα were investigated with Western blot analysis.ResultsNo differences of levels of Gsα and Giα were found in three groups before ischemia ( P gt;0.05). The level of Gsα after ischemia was significantly decreased than before ischemia in groupⅠand group Ⅱ ( P lt; 0 01), whereas no pronounced changes in group Ⅲ ( P gt;0.05) were noted after ischemia. The level of Gsα in group Ⅲ was not significantly changed after reperfusion compared with before ischemia( P gt;0 05), and it was much higher than those in groupⅠand group Ⅱ ( P lt; 0 01). Level of Giα was found not markedly changed in group Ⅲ after reperfusion compared with that before ischemia, but was notable higher in groupⅠand group Ⅱ( P lt;0.01). ConclusionsSignificant decrease of level of Gsα, whereas marked increase of level of Giα are found in myocardium of newborn guinea pig undergoing hypothermic (20℃) ischemic reperfusion. No impact of St. Thomas Ⅱ on these changes is verified, but recovery to the level of Gsα and Giα before ischemia is achieved by cold blood cardioplegic solution after ischemia and reperfusion. Unbalance between Gsα and Giα is the one of the mechanisms of ischemic reperfusion injury for immature myocardium.
rough the ultramicroscopic observation on muscle and microcirculation, Group A,where a largeamount of DXM combined with heporin was given svstematically and locally into the femoral artery of the severed limb before replantation, and in Group B only heporin was given, and Group C and D ascontrol.The results showed that if the hormone and heparin were administred in large dosage, it wasadvantageous to reduce the tissues from reperfusion injury during delayed replantation.
目的 探讨异氟醚通过抑制细胞间黏附分子（ICAM-1）表达参与减轻肝脏缺血-再灌注（IR）损伤的可能调节机制。 方法 32只雌性SD大鼠分为4组。A组大鼠行腹腔注射1%戊巴比妥钠40 mg/kg麻醉，进行手术但不阻断入肝血流；B组1%戊巴比妥钠麻醉后行部分肝脏IR；C组大鼠仅接受1.0 MAC异氟醚吸入麻醉，不阻断血流；D组采用1.0 MAC异氟醚麻醉，建立肝脏IR模型。肝脏缺血60 min，再灌注3 h后取肝组织和血液标本，检测血清丙氨酸转氨酶（ALT）和天冬门氨酸转氨酶（AST）、肝组织ICAM-1和肝组织还原型谷胱甘肽（GSH）、脂质过氧化物丙二醛（MDA）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）含量。 结果 与戊巴比妥钠麻醉比较，采用异氟醚处理后明显降低血清ALT和AST的水平，再灌注肝组织内GSH、SOD含量明显高于而MDA含量降低，同时抑制肝组织ICAM-1的表达。 结论 异氟醚麻醉能够有效减轻肝脏IR损伤，抑制氧自由基的生成和释放，具体机制可能与抑制ICAM-1表达致使细胞内GSH含量增加密切相关。
To investigate the protective effect of propofol on ischemia/reperfusion induced spinal cord injury in rabbits and its influence on excitatory amino acid (EAA). Methods Sixty New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.0-2.5 kg, half males and half females, were selected. The infrarenal circumaortic clamping model was used. And 6 mL/kg different fluids were continuously infused through a catheter into the aorta distal to the clamping site at a speed of 12 mL/(kg•h) during the 30 minutes ischemia period. According to the different infusing l iquids, the rabbits were randomized into 6 groups(n=10 per group): group A, normal sal ine; group B, 10% intral ipid; group C, propofol 30 mg/kg; group D, propofol 40 mg/kg; group E, propofol 50 mg/kg; group F, propofol 60 mg/kg. At 0, 6, 24, and 48 hours after reperfusion, neurologic outcomes were scored on a Tarlov scale system. At 48 hours after reperfusion, the number of normal neurons in the anterior spinal cord was counted, and concentration of EAA in the lumbar spinal cord was measured by high performance l iquid chromatography. Results The neuroethological score was better in groups C, D, E and F than that of groups A and B (P lt; 0.05), the score of group E was the highest (P lt; 0.05), and there was no significant difference between group A and group B (P gt; 0.05). The number of normal neurons in the anterior spinal cord of groups C, D, E and F was greater than that of groups A and B (P lt; 0.05), and group E was greater than groups C, D and F (P lt; 0.05). The concentration of EAA in groups A, B, C, D, E and F was greater than that of normal tissue, the group E was the lowest (P lt; 0.05), the groups A and B were the highest (P lt; 0.05), and there was no significant difference between group A and group B (P gt; 0.05). Concentrations of glutamate and aspartic acid were negatively correlated to normal neuron numbers in the anterior spinal cord and neuroethological scores 48 hours after reperfusion, and the corresponding correlation coefficient was — 0.613, — 0.536, — 0.874 and — 0.813, respectively (P lt; 0.01). Conclusion Propofol can significantly inhibit the accumulation of EAA in spinal cord and provide a protective effect against the ischemia/reperfusion injury induced spinal cord in rabbits.

Objective To investigate the effects of adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR) activation on oxidative stress in small-forsize liver transplantation. Methods A rat orthotopic liver transplantation model was performed using 40% graft, 18 recipients were given intravenously saline (control group), CGS21680 (A2AR agonist, CGS21680 group) or ZM241385 (A2AR antagonist, CGS21680+ZM241385 group) randomly. Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), enzymatic antioxidants 〔superoxide dismutase (SOD); catalase (CAT); glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)〕, non-enzymatic antioxidants 〔ascorbic acid (AA); glutathione (GSH); α-tocopherol (TOC)〕 and lipid oxidant metabolites malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured and analyzed at 6 h after reperfusion. Results Compared with the control group and CGS21680+ZM241385 group, A2AR activation increased the activities of SOD and GSHPx (Plt;0.05), reduced the productions of AST and MDA (Plt;0.05), increased the levels of AA, GSH and TOC (Plt;0.05) in CGS21680 group. But there was no significant change in CAT activity (Pgt;0.05) among 3 groups. Conclusions A2AR activation improves the antioxidant enzyme activities, promotes the production of antioxidants, and slowes down the increase in MDA level, depresses of the increase in AST activity. A2AR activation suppresses oxidative damage and increases the antioxidant capacity which in turn minimizes their harmful effects of ischemia-reperfusion in small-for-size liver transplantation.
Objective To observe the influences of depolarized arrest and hyperpolarized arrest on alternation of fluidity of myocardial cell membrane during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and evaluate the protective effects on myocardium of hyperpolarized arrest. Methods Seventy-two felines were randomized into three groups, each group 24. Control group: 180 minutes of CPB was conducted without aortic and vena caval cross-clamping. Depolarized arrest group: hearts underwent 60 minutes of global ischemia after aortic cross-clamping (ACC) followed by 90 minutes of reperfusion. The cardioplegic solution consisted of St. Thomas solution (K+16mmol/L). Hyperpolarized arrest group: the protocol was the same as that in depolarized arrest group except that the cardioplegic solution consisted of St.Thomas solution with pinacidil (50 mmol/L,K+5mmol/L). Microviscosity, the reciprocal of fluidity of myocardial membrane was measured in all groups by using fluorescence polarization technique. (Results )Microvis cosity of myocardial cell in depolarized arrest group during ACC period was significantly higher than that before ACC and kept on rising during reperfusion period. Microviscosity of myocardial cell in hyperpolarized arrest group during ACC was trending up and reperfusion periods as well, but markedly lower compared to that in depolarized arrest group at corresponding time points(Plt;0.01). Conclusion Hyperpolarized arrest is more effective in protecting myocardial cells from ischemia-reperfusion injury than depolarized arrest during CPB by maintaining better fluidity of myocardial membrane.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of severed limb preservation by perfusion and to analyze difference in effect of severed limb preservation by different perfusate. MethodsThe domestic and foreign related literature about severed limb preservation by perfusion was extensively reviewed and analyzed. ResultsCurrently the main perfusate includes organ perfusate,free radical scavengers,energy mixture,blood substitutes,and whole blood.They can reduce the skeletal muscle's ischemia-reperfusion injury in different degrees. ConclusionDifferent perfusate can reduce the skeletal muscle's ischemia-reperfusion injury in different degrees,but the best effect of perfusate and personalized preservation method need further study.
Objective To study the mechanisms and treatment of ischemia /reperfusion injury, expression of intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) were measured, the effect on suppression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 by the pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) were investigated. Methods Endothelial cells were divided into 3 groups, hypoxia group: endothelial cells were exposed in hypoxia condition, then returned to reoxygenation condition; the PDTC group: PDTC was added to the endothelial cells in the culture media before exposing to hypoxia condition; control group: endothelial cells underwent treatment. Confocal microscopy was used to detect expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. Results ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression were low in endothelial cells of control group, and increased in hypoxia group . ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression of endothelial cells in PDTC group werelower than those in hypoxia group , but higher than those in control group. Conclusions It seems that hypoxia/ reoxygenation can activate the endothelial cells and increase the expression of cell adhesion molecules. PDTC can decrease the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. PDTC may prove benificial in the treatment of ischemia /reperfusion injury.
ObjectiveTo study the relationship between hepatocellular apoptosis and glycogen contents during hepatic cold preservationreperfusion and its mechanism.MethodsBased on the model of four groups of rabbit livers with different hepatocellular glycogen contents, hepatocellular apoptosis and bax gene expression were observed during hepatic cold preservationreperfusion.ResultsApoptotic hepatocytes were obviously found in 60 minute reperfusing livers subsequent to 9 hour cold storage, and there was significant difference in the numbers of apoptotic hepatocytes among all the groups. In the same time, there was the close relationship between the levels of bax gene expression and the glycogen contents of hepatocytes.ConclusionIntracellular abundant glycogen may significantly depress the hepatocellular apoptosis during hepatic cold preservationreperfusion by decreasing hepatocellular bax gene expression.
