ABSTRACT
Aim To investigate the protective effect of catechin on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats and its mechanism.Methods 40 rats were randomly divided into 5 groups:sham operation group,model group and 50,100 and 200 mg·kg~(-1) catechin groups,with 8 rats in each group.The model of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats was established with modified sutured-occluded method.The rats in catechin groups were injected with catechin at the matched concentration.The rats in sham operation group and model group were injected with saline.And all rats were given more time in 2 hours after ischemia.Rats were sacrificed for histologic examination after the behavioral test,and their brains were taken to assay the activities of MPO and NOS.Results Catechin at different dosages(50,100 and 200 mg·kg~(-1))could obviously decrease neurological deficit score,repair histological injury,and reduce the activities of MPO and NOS in rats of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.Conclusions Catechin can relieve the cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury,and its mechanism may be partly related to the effects of its antiinflammation and antioxidation.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To set up a kind of Helicobacter pylori(Hp) detection method which can determine the Hp infection and its clinical value for the digestive diseases.METHODS Gastric biopsy was used with gastric mucosa Hp rapid urease test,Hp-IgG was detected by ELISA,and Hp-DNA of feces by fluorescent gene quantitation method.RESULTS From the 96 patients positively determined by gastric biopsy,the positive rate of Hp-DNA of feces was 95.8%,but the positive rate of Hp-IgG was 47.9%.From the 59 Hp-IgG positive patients,the positive rate of gastric biopsy was 45.8%.CONCLUSIONS Gastric biopsy and HP-DNA quantitation of feces are both reliable methods which can determine the Hp infection,but Hp-DNA quantitation of feces is a simple,rapid,reliable and atraumatic test,it can be put into practice widely and more easily.
