ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) on the expression of Apaf-1 and TLR4 in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion(CIR) injury.Methods 32 healthy adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups,which were sham operated group (n=8),CIR model group (n=8) and PGE1 pretreated groups (low dose,12 μg · kg-1;high dose,24 μg · kg-1,n =8).Rat model of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion was established by bilateral common carotid artery ligation.The expression of Apaf-1 and TLR4 was detected with immunohistochemical staining method in hippocampus and epencephalon.Results After 20 min of ischemia and reperfusion for 24 h,compared with sham operated group (Apaf-1:hippocampus (0.87±0.78),epencephalon (0.67 ±0.43);TLR4:hippocampus (2.43 ± 1.17),epencephalon (1.97± 1.033)),the number of positive cells of Apaf-1 (hippocampus (11.83± 2.26);epencephalon(5.80±1.30) and TLR4 (hippocampus(16.90±2.86);epencephalon(12.90±2.66)) was increased in CIR model group (P＜0.05).Compared with CIR model group,the positive cell numbers of Apaf-1 (hippocampus:low dose(9.83±2.12),high dose(5.50± 1.17);epencephalon:low dose(4.87± 1.38),high dose(2.73±1.172)) and TLR4 (hippocampus:low dose (11.53± 2.40),high dose (9.13 ± 2.54);epencephalon:low dose (9.07 ± 2.07),high dose (4.47 ± 1.68)) were reduced dose-dependently in PGE 1 pretreatment all group (all P ＜0.05).Conclusion PGE1 can inhibit the expression of Apaf-1 and TLR4 in hippocampus and epencephalon of rat with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the influence of the extract of wen-pi-tang on the memory and SOD and MDA of normal mice and cerebral ischemia reperfusion mice.Method The mice were divided into normal group,sham operation group,model group,aqueous extract and alcohol extract of wen-pi-tang (1.0 g/kg,0.5 g/kg,0.25g/kg).Model mice with cerebral ischemia reperfusion were made by blocking bilateral common carotid artery.The influence on memory behavior of normal mice and mice with cerebral ischemia reperfusion were tested by gavage for 10 days with extract of wen-pi-tang through step-down and step-through tests.Then SOD activity and content of the MDA were tested.Result In step-down test,compared with normal group,extract of wen-pi-tang with all doses made normal mice' latency longer,error frequency fewer,with high does clearest (P＜0.05)(latency:(187.17±99.00) s,(270.73±44.73) s,(260.45±63.78) s,error frequency(1.75± 1.71) times,(0.45±0.69) times,(0.75±0.97) times) ;in step-through test,compared with normal group,aqueous extract with high and middle doses and alcohol extract with longe doses could made latency of cerebral ischemia reperfusion mice longer and error frequency fewer (latency(157.15±84.91) s,(250.63±58.98) s,(251.12±78.22) s,(245±84.82) s,error frequency(2.15± 1.22) times,(0.75±0.89) times,(0.75± 1.16) times,(0.625 ±0.92) times) (P＜0.05) ; extract of wen-pi-tang with high and middle does increased SOD activity obviously compared with normal group(P＜0.05),and the content of MDA was obviously lower compared with normal group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion Extracts of wen-pi-tang can improve the memory function of normal mice,and the memory of cerebral ischemia reperfusion mice.The mechanism can be related to the increase of SOD activity and the decrease of the content of MDA.
ABSTRACT
Humanities education is an important part in college and university education. Medical college and university libraries should strengthen their sense of responsibility and sense of mission, continuously expand and innovate the mode of humanity education, improve the environment of teaching, modify the system construction and promote the quality of straits to make library as an important field for medical students humanity education.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To observe effects of Ficus carica polysaccharide (FCPS) on tumor bearing mice. Methods: The model of S 180 bearing mice and EAC bearing mice were established, tumor cells were inoculated under the skin of right armpit or in abdominal cavity in mice after FCPS being administered orally for ten days, to calculate inhibitive rate of tumor and survial time of mice. Results: FCPS could significantly prevent the growth of tumor, there were no effects on survival time of mice.Conclusion: FCPS had a good antineoplastic effect. It is worth further study.
