    AIM: Effects of ZD7288, a hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channel blocker, on visceral hypersensitivity were investigated in rats with acute visceral pain. METHODS: SD male rats with acute visceral pain were established by injection of 1% acetic acid 1 mL into the colons. The expression and distribution of HCN2 channel protein at dorsal root ganglion, thoracolumbar and lumbosacral spinal cord were detected using immuno-histochemical techniques in control and model rats. Meanwhile, effects of 50 and 100 nmol/L ZD7288 (i.p.) on visceral hypersensitivity were tested by means of abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR) and electromyographic (EMG) responses of abdominal external oblique muscles to 20-80 mmHg colorectal distention. RESULTS:Expressions of HCN2 channel protein at dorsal root ganglion, thoracolumbar and lumbosacral spinal cord were significantly increased in rats with acute visceral pain than those in control rats(P<0.05). And intrathecal administration of ZD7288 significantly reduced visceral hypersensitivity in a dose-dependent manner in rats with acute visceral pain(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: ZD7288 could inhibit visceral hypersensitivity in rats with acute visceral pain, and HCN2 channels at dorsal root ganglion and spinal cord may play an important role in acute visceral pain.

    AIM: To investigate the effects of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on learning and memory in rats after cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) and explore its mechanism. METHODS: Experimental rats were randomly divided into five groups: control group, model group(CPR), NaHS low dose group,middle dose group and high dose group . The ability of learning and memory was tested by Morris water maze; The activity of super oxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured with colorimetry; the morphological alterations in hippocampus slices were assessed by microscope. RESULTS:Compared with control group, the escape latency in model group was longer, the residence time in original platform quadrant and the times of passing the position of platform were less, SOD activity was decreased and the content of MDA was increased in model group. Compared with model group, the escape latency in treatment groups was shorter, the number of crossings over the target area and the residence time in original platform quadrant were increased. SOD activity and the content of MDA was increased and decreased, respectively. Morphological changes were significantly attenuated by NaHS in treatment groups.CONCLUSION: CPR can impair the ability of learning and memory of rats, and exogenous H2S donor NaHS can reduce the impairment of learning and memory of rats after CPR. The mechanism may be related to that H2S has the effects of anti-lipid peroxidation and scavenging free radical.

    AIM: To observe the effects of transforming growth factor beta-1(TGFβ1)on the expression of α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA) and connexin43 (Cx43) in cultured cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). METHODS: CFs were isolated from neonatal rat by trypsin dissociation and differential adhension. Primary cultures of CFs for one day were subjected to TGFβ1 (10 ng/mL) incubation for 24 hours. The expressions of α-SMA and Cx43 were determined by immunofluorescence staining. Semiquantitative analysis of mRNA and protein for α-SMA and Cx43 was finished by RT-PCR (reverse transcription polymerase Chain reaction) and Western blots. RESULTS:Little expression of protein and mRNA levels for α-SMA and Cx43 were observed in cultured 2 days primary CFs. TGFβ1 stimulation for 24 hours led to significantly increased protein and mRNA expression of α-SMA and Cx43.CONCLUSION: Transient TGFβ1 stimulation causes differentiation of CFs into MFs and up-regulations protein and mRNA expression of α-SMA and Cx43.

    AIM: To compare the morphological differences of liver between the two liver fibrosis models induced by dimethylnitrosamine(DMN) and thioacetamide(TAA). METHODS: 0.5% DMN (2 mL/kg; 3 times/week) was injected into the abdominal cavity of SD rats for 4 weeks to create one kind of liver fibrosis model.To create another kind of liver fibrosis models, 0.03% TAA in drinking water was administered orally to SD rats for 9 weeks and then 0.04% TAA was administered orally to SD rats for other 6 weeks. After being treated with DMN or TAA, animals were not treated for 4 weeks for recovery. The morphology of liver was evaluated in two models based on the H&E stain and the severity of liver fibrosis was compared in two models with collagen volume fraction and the protein expression of α-SMA.RESULTS: The mortality of rat in the model induced by DMN was high(30%)but no animal was dead in the model induced by TAA. The success rate in the model induced by DMN were higher than those induced by TAA (P<0.01). And the uniformity of liver fibrosis severity in the model induced by DMN is better than the latter. The two models had the similar collagen volume fractions. The protein expression of α-SMA in the model induced by DMN was higher than that induced by TAA (P<0.01).CONCLUSION: The model induced by DMN is better than that induced by TAA.

    AIM: To investigate the effects of vinpocetine on the cognitive impairment induced by scopolamine in mice and underlying mechanisms. METHODS: Vinpocetine(3 mg·kg-1·d-1, 6 mg·kg-1·d-1) were orally administered after intraperitoneal injection with scopolamine (0.8 mg/kg). Cognitive function was evaluated by passive avoidance test and Morris water maze test after 10-day administration. Changes in cholinergic system reactivity were also examined by measuring the acetylcholine (Ach) and acetylcholinesterase (AchE) in the hippocampus and cortex.RESULTS:Treatment with vinpocetine(3 mg·kg-1·d-1, 6 mg·kg-1·d-1) significantly decreased the escape latency in hidden platform test, increased the time spent in the platform quadrant in the spatial probe test, and decreased the times of errors in the passive avoidance test. Vinpocetine also significantly increased Ach level and decreased AchE activity in the hippocampus and cortex. CONCLUSION: Vinpocetine may improve scopolamine-induced memory impairment through elevation of brain Ach levels resulting from inhibition of AchE activity in mice.

    AIM: To determine the dose-effect relationship of intrathecal bupivacaine (Bup) co-administered with dexmedetomidine (Dex) for total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS: One hundred Sixty-two ASAⅠ-Ⅱ patients undergoing TKA with use of CSEA were enrolled in this study. Patients were randomely assigned into three groups: Group B (Bup), Group BD1 (Bup plus 2 μg Dex) and Group BD2 (Bup plus 4 μg Dex). Each group was further divided by Bup doses of 6-11 mg. Successful anesthesia and successful tourniquet pain blockade were defined. The ED50 and ED95 values for successful anesthesia and successful tourniquet pain blockade were determined separately by Probit regression analysis. RESULTS:The rate of successful anesthesia was not different among three groups. The time of start postoperative analgesia in Group BD1, Group BD2 was later than that in Group B (P=0.036), respectively. The rate of successful tourniquet pain blockade was different among three groups. The ED50 and ED95 values for successful tourniquet pain blockade were significantly smaller in Group BD1 and BD2 than that in Group B (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Intrathecal Dex did not decrease the dose of intrathecal Bup required for successful anesthesia for patients undergoing TKA. However, it reduced the dose required for tourniquet pain blockade.

    AIM: To compare the effect of the GnRH antagonist and GnRH agonist on the outcomes of polycystic ovary syndrome patients who underwent in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. METHODS: The study started from July 2012 to December 2012. A total of 122 patients with PCOS were divided into two groups according to the will of patients: 54 cycles in group A underwent GnRH antagonist protocol and 68 cycles in group B underwent routine GnRH agonist protocol. The dosage of gonadotropin, hormone levels, laboratory results, OHSS incidence and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS:Total dosage and duration of gonadotropin of group A were (1 342.82±442.56) IU and (9.67±2.06) d, which was significantly lower than that of group B (1 521.32±506.59) IU and (12.01±3.62) days. E2 on the day of HCG administration of Group A (12 354.43±5 771.43) pmol/L was significantly higher than that of group B (8 685.26±4 218.03) pmol/L. The fertilization rate and blastocyst formation rate of group A (79.3% and 73.76%) were significantly higher compared with group B (39.33% and 30.71%). The clinical pregnancy rates were 44.90% and 66.67% respectively. Group B had a rising trend but there had no significant difference. The other laboratory results, OHSS incidence and clinical outcomes were not significant difference. CONCLUSION: Compared with GnRH agonist protocol, GnRH antagonist protocol effectively reduced the amount and duration of gonadotriopin, cut down the costs and relieved the psychological burden. In addition, GnRH antagonist protocol improved the blastocyst formation rate, which may indirectly increased the cumulative pregnancy rate. We concluded that GnRH antagonist protocol may be an alternative method for PCOS patients.

    Gene polymorphisms affect the metabolisms of thiopurine drugs, which eventually become the main reason for the differences in efficacy and toxicity. Recently some researches have showed that there were no complete correlations between a single gene polymorphism of drug metabolizing enzyme or transporter and clinical adverse reactions of thiopurine drugs. However, the reasons of drug intolerance were probably more related to multi-genetic analyses. In this article, some of the recent developments of gene polymorphisms of several enzymes about thiopurine drugs were introduced. Meanwhile, the relationships between their metabolic characteristics and drug susceptibility were reviewed.

    Survivin is a cancer-specific protein, and it upregulated in almost all human tumors. Because of its upregulation in malignancy and its key role in apoptosis, proliferation and angiogenesis, survivin is considered as a new target for anti-cancer therapies. Strategies under the research to target survivin include antisense oligonucleotides, siRNA, ribozymes, immunotherapy and small molecular weight molecules. Several phase I/II clinical trials targeting survivin are currently ongoing. The usage of survivin antagonists combined with conventional therapies might achieve better therapeutic effect.
