ABSTRACT

Objective:To establish the pig model of cardiac arrest and resuscitation, and then investigate the protective role of sivelestat (SV) on the heart after resuscitation and its relation with β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods:Twenty-five healthy male white pigs were purchased. The animals were randomly divided into the Sham group ( n=6), cardiopulmonary resuscitation group (CPR, n=10), and CPR+SV group ( n=9). The experimental animal model was established by 9 min of cardiac arrest induced by the method of ventricular fibrillation and then 6 min of CPR in the CPR and CPR+SV groups. At 5 min after successful resuscitation, a dose of 10 mg/kg of SV was infused in a duration of 1h via the femoral vein with a micro-infusion pump in the CPR+SV group. Myocardial function evaluated by the values of stroke volume (SV) and global ejection fraction (GEF) was measured by PiCCO at baseline, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 h after resuscitation. The serum concentrations of cardiac injury biomarkers including cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzymes (CK-MB) were measured by ELISA using blood samples drawn from the femoral vein at baseline, and at 1, 2, 4, and 24 h after resuscitation. The animals were euthanized at 24 h after resuscitation, and then cardiac tissue samples were harvested to measure the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3 by Western blot and the degree of cell apoptosis by TUNEL. Results:Prior to cardiac arrest, myocardial function and cardiac injury biomarkers were maintained at the same levels, and no differences were observed among the three groups (all P> 0.05). After resuscitation, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were observed in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, in which the values of SV and GEF were significantly decreased and meanwhile the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly increased when compared with the Sham group (all P< 0.05). However, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were significantly milder in the CPR+SV group, in which the value of SV at 4h post-resuscitation and the values of GEF starting 1h post-resuscitation were significantly increased, and the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly decreased at 4 and 24 h post-resuscitation when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Tissue measurements indicated that the change of β-catenin signaling pathway and the occurrence of cell apoptosis were observed in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, which were indicated by significant increases in the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3, and marked elevation in the index of cell apoptosis when compared with the Sham groups (all P< 0.05). However, the expression levels of proteins mentioned above were significantly decreased in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation and the index of cell apoptosis was significantly reduced in the CPR+SV group when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Conclusion:SV has the protective role in alleviating post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury, in which the protective mechanism is possibly related to the alleviation of cell apoptosis through the inhibition of β-catenin signaling pathway activation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of sodium butyrate (NaB) on renal and intestinal injury after cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CA-CPR) and its related mechanism.Methods:Twenty-four domestic healthy male swines were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham group ( n=6), CA-CPR group ( n=10) and NaB group ( n=8). The animals only underwent operational preparation in the sham group. The animal model of CA and CPR was established by 9 min of ventricular fibrillation induced by electrical stimulation in the ventricle and then 6 min of CPR in the CA-CPR and NaB groups. At 5 min after resuscitation, a dose of 75 mg/kg of NaB was intravenously infused for 1 h in the NaB group, and meanwhile the same volume of vehicle was intravenously infused in the sham and CA-CPR groups. At 1, 2, 4, and 24 h after resuscitation, blood samples were collected to detect the renal and intestinal injury biomarkers, such as creatinine (Cr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP), and diamine oxidase (DAO). At 24 h after resuscitation, renal and intestinal tissue specimens were harvested to detect the protein markers of cell autophagy including microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 Ⅱ (LC3Ⅱ) and p62 expression, and also renal and intestinal apoptosis. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS software, and continuous variables were compared with one-way analysis of variance among the groups. Results:After CA-CPR, the renal and intestinal injury biomarkers including Cr, BUN, IFABP, and DAO were significantly increased at all time points after resuscitation in the CA-CPR and NaB groups compared with the sham group (all P<0.05). The injury biomarkers mentioned-above were significantly lower at all time points after resuscitation in the NaB group than in the CA-CPR group [Cr (μmol/L): (90±5) vs. (127±9) at 1 h, (135±14) vs. (168±9) at 2 h, (174±10) vs. (211±12) at 4 h, (192±10) vs. (253±13) at 24 h; BUN (mmol/L): (10.5±1.0) vs. (12.3±1.0) at 1 h, (12.2±1.2) vs. (15.3±0.9) at 2 h, (13.6±1.3) vs. (18.3±1.2) at 4 h, (15.4±1.4) vs. (21.5±1.4) at 24 h; IFABP (pg/mL): (502±33) vs. (554±32) at 1 h, (574±52) vs. (644±41) at 2 h, (646±44) vs. (732±43) at 4 h, (711±42) vs. (828±42) at 24 h; DAO (U/mL): (8.6±1.0) vs. (10.5±0.9) at 1 h, (10.6±1.2) vs. (12.8±1.0) at 2 h, (12.1±1.0) vs. (15.0±1.0) at 4 h, (14.1±1.1) vs. (17.6±1.0) at 24 h, (all P<0.05)]. Renal and intestinal tissue detection indicated that cell autophagy and apoptosis were significantly increased after resuscitation in the CA-CPR and NaB groups compared with the sham group, which was indicated by significantly increased LC3Ⅱ and decreased p62 expression, and markedly elevated apoptosis index (all P<0.05). However, cell autophagy and apoptosis in the kidney and intestine were significantly milder after resuscitation in the NaB group than in the CA-CPR group [renal LC3 Ⅱ: (1.15±0.17) vs. (2.23±0.31), p62: (1.60±0.10) vs. (1.17±0.08), apoptosis index (%): (21.2±5.3) vs. (50.9±7.9); intestinal LC3 Ⅱ: (1.03±0.17) vs. (1.71±0.21), p62: (1.30±0.29) vs. (0.79±0.29), apoptosis index (%): (25.6±6.1) vs. (61.7±10.7), all P<0.05]. Conclusions:NaB could alleviate the severity of renal and intestinal damage after CA-CPR in swine, and its protective mechanism may be related to the inhibition of cell autophagy and apoptosis.

ABSTRACT

Tetanus consists of neonatal tetanus and non-neonatal tetanus. Non-neonatal tetanus remains a serious public health problem, although neonatal tetanus has been eliminated in China since 2012. Non-neonatal tetanus is a potential fatal disease. In the absence of medical intervention, the mortality rate of severe cases is almost 100%. Even with vigorous treatment, the mortality rate remains 30%-50% globally. These specifications aim to regulate non-neonatal tetanus diagnosis and treatment in China, in order to improve medical quality and safety. These specifications introduce the etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and laboratory tests, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, grading and treatment of non-neonatal tetanus.

ABSTRACT

Tetanus consists of neonatal tetanus and non-neonatal tetanus. Although neonatal tetanus in China has been eliminated since 2012, non-neonatal tetanus remains a serious public health problem. Non-neonatal tetanus is a potential fatal disease, and the mortality rate of severe cases is almost 100% in the absence of medical intervention. Even with vigorous treatment, the mortality rate is still 30~50% globally. In order to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of non-neonatal tetanus in China, this specification is hereby formulated. This standard includes etiology, epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, classification, grading and treatment of non-neonatal tetanus.

ABSTRACT

AIM:To explore the expression level of tristetraprolin(TTP)in rats after subarachnoid hemor-rhage(SAH)as well as the potential role of TTP in the early brain injury(EBI)after SAH in rats.METHODS:In the first experiment setting,total 56 adult male SD rats were randomly divided into sham group and SAH group.The SAH mod-el was performed by endovascular perforation.The brain tissues were taken out after SAH at 5 different time points(0,12, 24,48,72 h and 1 week).The expression of TTP in the brain tissues was detected by Western blot.In the second experi-ment,a total of 60 SD rats were divided into 4 groups: sham group, SAH group, SAH +vector group and SAH +TPP group.Neurological score,brain water content and blood-brain barrier were evaluated at 48 h after SAH.TUNEL staining was performed to detect cell apoptosis in the rat brain tissue.ELISA method was used for quantitative detection of interleu-kin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α).The protein levels of TTP,Bax,Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 in the rat brain tissue were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:The protein expression of TTP in the brain was downregulated markedly from 12 h after SAH,reached the lowest level at 48 h,and then had an upward trend.After modeling for 48 h, Garcia neurological score was significantly reduced,and brain water content and Evans blue(EB)content of the brain tis-sue of the rats in SAH group were significantly higher than those in sham group(P<0.05).SAH induced significant in-creases in IL-6 and TNF-αlevels in the brain tissue(P<0.05).The number of TUNEL-stained cells was increased in the subcortical brain region after SAH compared with sham group.In addition,a lower level of Bcl-2 and higher levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in the rat brains were observed at 48 h after SAH.However,the neurological deficit score was signif-icantly increased,and the brain water content and EB content in the rat brains were significantly reduced in SAH +TTP group in comparison with SAH +vector group(P<0.05).Over-expression of TTP dramatically suppressed the levels of IL-6 and TNF-αin the rat brains,and reduced the number of TUNEL positive cells.Furthermore,upregulation of TTP signifi-cantly decreased the levels of cleaved caspase-3 and Bax, and evidently enhanced the expression of Bcl-2(P<0.01). CONCLUSION:The expression of TTP is significantly decreased in early period after SAH, and enhancing the level of TTP effectively inhibits EBI following SAH in rats.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on the expression of survivin in PC12 cells and the neuroprotective function of H2S on PC12 cells.Methods Different concentrations of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) were used to treat the PC12 cells at different times.Dose-effect (50-800 μmol/L) and time-effect (0-180 min) on the expression of survivin were evaluated by Western blotting.Cell viability was tested by using cell counter kit-8.Results NariS treatment at the concentrations from 50 to 200 μmol/L for 30 min could up-regulate the expression of survivin in a dose dependent manner,however,when the concentration of NariS was above that,the expression of survivin decreased gradually;when the concentration of NariS reached 800 μmoi/L,the expression level of survivin was lower than the normal level.Treatment with 400 μmol/L NariS within the range of 0-60 min could promote the expression of survivin in a time dependent manner,but with the extension of time,the expression of survivin was declined.On the other hand,400 μmol/L NaHS preconditioning could enhance the expression of survivin promoted by CoCl2 and reduce the injuries of PC12 cells induced by CoCl2 to increase the cell viability.Conclusion H2S increases the expression ofsurvivin in a dose and time dependent manners at certain degree,which may be related to the protection of PC12 cells against chemical hypoxic damage.
