【Abstract】Objective To explore the dynamic expression of TNF-α and VEGF in the development of esophageal varices in rats with portal hypertension. Methods Sixty male SD rats were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. In the experimental group, a two-stage ligation of portal vein plus ligation of the left adrenal vein was performed.After establishment of the model, the expression of TNF-α、VEGF and PCNA in the lower esophagus was detected with immunohistochemical SP technique on 7 d、14 d、21 d and comparision of these data with control group was performed respectively. In the control group, a sham-operation was performed, was also divided.Results The portal venous pressure in the experimental group was significantly higher than that of the control, so did the vessel number and the total vascular area of the submucosal veins in the lower esophagus. Compared with the control subgroups, the expression of TNF-α and VEGF on the 21 d subgroup was ber, while PCNA was ber on the 14 d and 21 d. Conclusion In the development of esophageal varices of portal hypertension, VEGF possibly plays a role in the varices developemt, and TNF-α may be responsible for the damage of esophageal mucosa.
Objective To investigate effect of different resuscitation liquids and different resuscitation methods on contents of interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in early resuscitation process of rats with traumatic hemorrhagic shock. Methods Sixty-four healthy SD rats (450–550 g) were chosen and divided into 4 groups randomly and averagely: crystal liquid limited resuscitation group, colloidal liquid limited resuscitation group, 7.5% NaCl limited resuscitation group, and colloidal liquid non-limited resuscitation group. There were 16 rats in each group. All the experimental rats were weighed before intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium anesthesia. Animal model was established via Chaudry’s method. The rats were killed and the abdominal aorta bloods were drew on hour 2, 6, 12, and 24 after recovering from anesthesia. The contents of IL-8 and TNF-α in plasmas were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Results The contents of IL-8 and TNF-α among three kinds of limited resuscitation groups on hour 6 after resuscitation were significantly higher than those on hour 2 after resuscitation (P<0.05) and reached the peaks, then began to decrease. On hour 12 after resuscitation, the contents of IL-8 and TNF-α were decreased continuously among three kinds of limited resuscitation groups (P<0.05). The contents of IL-8 and TNF-α in the colloidal liquid non-limited resuscitation group at each point time were significantly higher than those among three kinds of limited resuscitation groups (P<0.05), which in the crystal liquid resuscitation group were significantly lower than those in the other limited liquid resuscitation groups (P<0.05). Conclusions In process of liquid resuscitation of rats with traumatic hemorrhagic shock, limited resuscitation method is better than that of non-limited resuscitation method. Among three kinds of limited resuscitation methods, crystal resuscitation liquid is more effective than the other two resuscitation liquids in prohibiting releases of IL-8 and TNF-α in rats with traumatic hemorrhagic shock.
Objective To summarize the change in the cytokine network, the classification of various cytokines, interaction, and systemic impact on patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods The recently published literatures in domestic and abroad about advancement of cytokines in AP were reviewed. Results Cytokines had a complex network and interactions. There were a variety of regulatory mechanisms. The tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin cytokines played important roles in the progress of AP. Conclusions Change of cytokines during AP is a complex process. Any separate regulation for the release of sigle factor has no significant effect on the disease. The treatment according to immune balance should be a better direction.
Objective To study the change in serum levels of soluble CD14, tumor necrosis factor-α, E-selectin, interleukin-10 and mean arterial pressure, as well as their relationship to infection during the pathophysiologic process in endotoxemia of rabbits. Methods Sixteen rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: group A, as a control group; group B, endotoxemia group. The model of rabbit with endotoxemia were used. Endotoxin at a dose of 1.5 mg/(kg·h) or 3 mg/(kg·h) was continuously infused through external jugular vein within 2 hours, 1 hour respectively. The change of levels of serum soluble CD14, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-10 and E-selectin were observed at 0 (time before infusion of endotoxin), 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300 minutes, while mean arterial pressure was measured by polygraphy system. Results In the group B,there was an increase of content of soluble CD14,tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-10 and E-selectin following 30, 120 minutes respectively,and mean arterial pressure was lower than that of group A at same time points. Conclusion The results suggest that soluble CD14,tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-10 and E-selectin may play an important role during the change of infection and that these changes may be closely related with severe infection.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the potential role of tumor necrosis factoralpha (TNFα) in apoptosis after combined liver and kidney transplantation in rats. MethodsEighty rats which had combined liver and kidney transplantation were randomly paired, were divided into study group (n=20) and control group (n=20). 40 ml of 4 ℃ sodium chloride and antiTNFα monoclonal antibody (30 ml was infused from portal veins to donated livers and 10 ml from renal arteries to donated kidneys) were infused to the study group (0.1 mg/kg weight),and the same quantity of 4 ℃ sodium chloride was infused the control group. Venous blood was drew at different phases after the transplantations to detect the function of kidney and liver. The level of TNFα and the cell apoptosis were detected in the transplanted tissues of liver and kidney by ELISA and terminal deoxynucleotidy transferase mediated dTUPbiotin nickend labeling (TUNEL). ResultsThe levels of AST, ACT, Cr and BUN in the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group at the same phases (P＜0.05). The level of TNFα in the transplanted tissues of kidney and liver was also significantly lower as compared with those of control group. The cell apoptosis index of the transplanted tissues of kidney and liver was significantly smaller in the study group （P＜0.05）. There was no dramatically pathological change in the tissues of transplanted kidney and liver, which were treated with antiTNFα monoclonal antibody, and the structures are almost normal. ConclusionAntiTNFα monoclonal antibody may reduce cell apoptosis and accelerate the restoration of function of liver and kidney after combined liver and kidney transplantation.
Objective To study the role of hydrogen sulfide （H2S） in prophase of acute peritoneal cavity infection. Methods NaHS was taken as a donor of H2S. Seventy-two Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 4 groups randomly：control group， cecal ligation and puncture （CLP） and treated with natural saline group，CLP and treated with NAHS group， and CLP and treated with DL-propargylglycine （PAG， an inhibitor of H2S formation） group. Selected 6 rats at 2h， 6h， and 12h after treatment in each group. The contents of TNF-αand H2S in serum and the content of MPO in intestinal tissue were measured， respectively. The histopathological change of ileum tissues were observed at 6 h after treatment in each group. Results The H2S could alleviate CLP-induced inflammation obviously， decrease the content of TNF-α in serum when inflammation，and attenuate the infiltration of neutrophilic granulocyte in small intestine. Conclusion The H2S has anti-inflammation effect in prophase of acute peritoneal cavity infection.
ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in prostate cancer tissue and explore its relations with tumor angiogenesis. MethodsThe expression of TNF-α and CD105 were detected with two-step immunohistochemical staining technique in 20 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia and 50 cases of prostate cancer between January 2010 and January 2012, and microvessel density (MVD) marked with CD105 was also measured. ResultsThe expressions of TNF-α and CD105 were higher in prostate cancer (41.72±8.67, 20.15±2.67) than those in benign prostatic hyperplasia (21.01±3.85, 4.34±1.67) (t'=13.990, P<0.001; t'=29.771, P<0.001). TNF-α and MVD were not correlated with age and size of tumor, but were positively correlated with tumor differentiation degree (rs=0.847, P<0.001; rs=0.776, P<0.001) and negatively correlated with clinical grades (rs=-0.769, P<0.001; rs=-0.842, P<0.001). ConclusionThe result indicates that over expression of TNF-α exists in prostate cancer. It may play an important role in the anginogenesis and carcinogenesis of prostate cancer.
