Protective effects of various doses of Glycyrrhizin on hippocampal tissue of young rats with status epilepticus / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

Objective:To study the protective effects of various doses of Glycyrrhizin on hippocampus of young rats with status epilepticus (SE).Methods:Lithium chloride and pilocarpine were injected intraperitoneally into male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (with a postnatal age of 18-21 days), so as to induce SE in rats.The rats were divided into 5 groups according to the random number table method: control group, SE group, SE+ low dose Glycyrrhizin group, SE+ medium dose Glycyrrhizin group and SE+ high dose Glycyrrhizin group.Three different doses of Glycyrrhizin (20 mg/kg, 40 mg/kg and 60 mg/kg) were injected intraperitoneally into the rats.The levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 in serum of SE rats were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of TNF- α, IL-1β and IL-6 in hippocampus of SE rats.The expression levels of Bax, Bcl-2 and Caspase-3 in hippocampus were detected by Western blot.The damage of neurons was measured by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and Nissl staining.Neurons apoptosis was examined by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL). The mitochondrial changes were observed under transmission electron microscopy.One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey post-hoc test was used for statistical analysis. Results:Compared to the control group, TNF-α[(369.69±58.07) ng/L vs. (75.46±14.64) ng/L], IL-1β[(242.27±25.23) ng/L vs. (45.29±5.90) ng/L] and IL-6[(288.15±24.60) ng/L vs. (46.59±8.80) ng/L] in the serum of SE rats were significantly up-regulated(all P<0.05). Compared to SE group, low, medium and high doses Glycyrrhizin could effectively reduce the levels of TNF-α[(216.67±8.31) ng/L, (158.81±5.03) ng/L and (113.69±12.54) ng/L vs. (369.69±58.07) ng/L], IL-1β[(131.21±5.50) ng/L, (86.60±7.79) ng/L and (65.06±4.39) ng/L vs. (242.27±25.23) ng/L] and IL-6[(150.24±9.48) ng/L, (101.70±5.85) ng/L and (91.60±2.81) ng/L vs. (288.15±24.60) ng/L] released in serum after SE occurred (all P<0.05). The neuronal damage, loss, apoptosis and mitochondrial damage were found in the hippocampus of SE rats.Glycyrrhizin could ameliorate these symptoms.Compared to the control group, Bax levels(0.57±0.01 vs. 0.14±0.01)and Caspase-3 levels(0.54±0.00 vs. 0.11±0.01)in the hippocampus of SE rats were markedly increased, while Bcl-2 levels(0.27±0.01 vs. 0.57±0.02)were decreased(all P<0.05). Compared to the SE group, low, medium and high doses Glycyrrhizin could effectively reduce the levels of Bax(0.51±0.02, 0.45±0.03 and 0.40±0.02 vs. 0.57±0.01)and Caspase-3(0.47±0.02, 0.42±0.02 and 0.37±0.01 vs. 0.54±0.00), and increase the levels of Bcl-2(0.41±0.02, 0.45±0.02 and 0.51±0.01 vs. 0.27±0.01)(all P<0.05). Conclusions:Glycyrrhizin can effectively protect the hippocampus of young rats with SE.

Effectiveness of tyrosine kinase inhibitors against non-small cell lung cancer patients with postoperative recurrence harboring uncommon EGFR mutations / 中华肿瘤杂志

Objective@#To investigate the efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with postoperative recurrence who harbored uncommon EGFR mutations, and discuss the relationship between TKI treatment and prognosis.@*Methods@#A total of 39 relapsed NSCLC patients after surgery with EGFR uncommon mutations who were detected at Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 1999 and December 2013 were retrospectively analyzed in this study. Twenty patients were treated with EGFR-TKI after recurrence and 19 cases were not. The clinical characteristics of patients with EGFR uncommon mutations were evaluated, and the prognosis of TKI-treatment group and non-TKI treatment group was compared.@*Results@#In 39 relapsed NSCLC patients with EGFR uncommon mutations, insertion mutations and point mutations were included. The highest frequency of EGFR uncommon mutation happened in exon 20 (20/39, 51.3%). A total of 13 uncommon point mutations were detected in exon 18, 20 and 21. The most frequent rare point mutations located in exon 21, and there were 7 different point mutation sites in exon 21. G719S/C/A mutation in exon 18 was the most common type of point mutation (14/25, 56.0%). Survival after postoperative recurrence in TKI treatment group was obviously better than that in non-TKI treatment group, the median time after recurrence were 44 months and 23 months, respectively (P=0.044). However, the postoperative overall survival showed no differences between two groups (48 months vs 43 months, P=0.129).@*Conclusion@#NSCLC patients with postoperative recurrence who harbored rare EGFR mutations should be treated with TKI agent.

Efficacy of ultrasound-guided continuous transverses abdominis plane block when used for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing total hysterectomy / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided continuous transverses abdominis plane (TAP) block when used for postoperative analgesia in the patients undergoing total hysterectomy.Methods Forty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 38-64 yr,weighing 50-80 kg,undergoing elective total hysterectomy with general anesthesia,were divided into 2 groups using a random number table:continuous TAP block group (CTAP group,n =21) and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group (n=19).In group CTAP,bilateral TAP block was performed with 0.2％ ropivacaine 20 ml under ultrasound guidance before operation,and 0.2％ ropivacaine 5 ml/h was infused into bilateral TAPs after extubation.In group PCIA,the patients received PCIA with sufentanil 1 μg/ml after extubation,and the PCIA pump was set up to deliver a 2 ml bolus dose,a 15 min lockout interval and background infusion at a rate of 2 ml/h.Analgesia lasted until 72 h after operation in both groups.When visual analog scale＞4,morphine 5 mg was intramuscularly injected as rescue analgesic.The recovery time of postoperative intestinal function,length of hospital stay,patient's satisfaction with analgesia,requirement for rescue analgesia,TAP block-related adverse reactions and development of postoperative nausea and vomiting were recorded.In group CTAP,blood samples were collected from the peripheral vein immediately after the end of operation and at 2,6,12,24,48 and 72 h after operation for determination of concentrations of ropivacaine in plasma and free ropivacaine in plasma using high-performance liquid chromatography.Results Compared with group PCIA,the requirement for rescue analgesia and incidence of nausea and vomiting were significantly decreased,the recovery time of postoperative intestinal function was shortened,the score for patient's satisfaction with analgesia was increased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the length of hospital stay in group CTAP (P＞0.05).No TAP block-related adverse reactions were found in group CTAP.In group CTAP,the concentration of ropivacaine in plasma began to increase at 2 h after operation and peaked at 48 h after operation,the concentration of free ropivacaine in plasma began to increase at 2 h after operation and peaked at 24 h after operation (P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided continuous TAP block produces good analgesic efficacy when used for the patients undergoing total hysterectomy.

Prediction of network drug target based on improved model of bipartite graph valuation / 中国中药杂志

Network pharmacology, as a new developmental direction of drug discovery, was generating attention of more and more researchers. The key problem in drug discovery was how to identify the new interactions between drugs and target proteins. Prediction of new interaction was made to find potential targets based on the predicting model constructed by the known drug-protein interactions. According to the deficiencies of existing predicting algorithm based bipartite graph, a supervised learning integration method of bipartite graph was proposed in this paper. Firstly, the bipartite graph network was constructed based on the known interactions between drugs and target proteins. Secondly, the evaluation model for association between drugs and target proteins was created. Thirdly, the model was used to predict the new interactions between drugs and target proteins and confirm the new predicted targets. On the testing dataset, our method performed much better than three other predicting methods. The proposed method integrated chemical space, therapeutic space and genomic space, constructed the interaction network of drugs and target proteins, created the evaluation model and predicted the new interactions with good performance.

Effect of propofol on endothelial nitric oxide synthase and inducible nitric oxide synthase expression in thoracic aorta of hypertensive rats / 中华麻醉学杂志

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of propofol on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression in thoracic aorta of hypertensive rats.MethodsHealthy SD rats of both sexes weighing 240-280 g were used in this study.Hypertension was induced by subcutaneous deoxycorticosterone 25 mg/kg twice a week for consecutive 7 weeks.Sixty-four hypertensive rats were randomly divided into four groups (n ＝ 16 each):hypertension group (group H),low,medium and high dose propofol group ( groups P1,P2,P3 ).Groups P1,P2 and P3 received infusion of propofol at a rate of 20,30 and 40 mg* kg- 1 · h- 1 for 3 h respectively,while group H received equal volume normal saline instead of propofol.Mean arterial pressure (MAP) was monitored and recorded before,1 h and 3 h after the start of propofol or normal saline infusion.All animals were sacrificed at 3 h of intravenous administration.Blood samples were collected by taking out the eyeballs for determination of serum NO concentrations by nitrate reductase method.The expression of eNOS mRNA,iNOS mBNA was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction.The expression of eNOS and iNOS protein was determined by Western blot.ResultsCompared to group H,MAP was decreased significantly,the serum NO concentrations were increased significantly,the expression of eNOS mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta was up-regulated,and the expression of iNOS mRNA and protein in thoracic aorta was down-regulated in a dose-dependent manner in groups P1,P2 and P3 ( P < 0.05 or 0.01 ).ConclusionPropofol can down-regulate iNOS expression and up-regudate eNOS expression in endothelial cells of thoracic aorta and promote NO release in hypertensive rats,Which is the mechanism of propofol decreasing pressure.

Effect of intraperitoneal clonidine on expression of GAP-43 mRNA in spinal cord in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the effect of intraperitoneal (IP) clonidine on the expression of GAP-43 mRNA in the spinal cord in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain. Methods Thirty-six male SD rats weighing 180-220 g were randomly assigned to one of 3 groups (n=12 each) : group Ⅰsham operation (S); group Ⅱ chronic constriction injury (CCI) and group Ⅲ tP clonidine + CCI (CL). The animals were anesthetized with IP 10% chloral hydrate 300 mg/kg. The right sciatic nerve was exposed and 4 ligatures were placed in group CCI and CL. Clonidine 1 mg/kg was given IP immediately after surgery in group CL. Paw-withdrawal threshold (PWT) to thermal and von Frey filament stimulation was measured before (T_0, baseline) and at 3, 7 and 14 days after surgery (T_(1-3)). The animals were then killed. The lumbar segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the expression of GAP-43 mRNA. Results The PWT to thermal and mechanical stimulation was significantly reduced at 3 days after surgery (T_1) in group CCI and CL as compared with group S, and was significantly higher at T_2 and T_3 in group CL than in group CCI. The GAP-43 mRNA expression in the spinal cord was significantly increased in group CCI and CL as compared with group S and significantly lower in group CL than in group CCI. Conclusion lntraperitoneal clonidine can inhibit hyperalgesia by reducing the expression of GAP-43 mRNA in the spinal cord in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain.
