ObjectiveTo investigate the change of renal endothelin (ET) excretion and its relation to renal dysfunctions in obstructive jaundice.MethodsSixty male Wistar rats were randomized into two groups, the common bile ducts were ligated to establish the model of obstructive jaundice in experimental group, and only sham operation was done in control group. Ten rats were taken from each group at 5, 10 and 15 days respectively after operation, renal functions were evaluated by paminohippuric acid clearance (CPAH), inulin clearance (CIN) and fractional sodium excretion (FENa+); furthermore, plasma endotoxin (EX) level was determined, and ET1 contents in renal arterial plasma, renal venous plasma and renal tissue were detected. ResultsOnly FENa+ was significantly increased at the 5th day in experimental group; since the 10th day, all the three renal functional parameters gradually decreased, and FENa+ was significantly lower than that in control group at 15th day (P<0.01 vs control). ②The plasma EX sustained at significantly higher levels after operation in experimental group (P<0.01 vs control). ③The renal arterial plasma ET1 was significantly decreased, while the contents in renal venous plasma and renal tissue were significantly increased after operation in experimental group (P<0.01 vs control). ④There were positive correlation between plasma EX and renal ET1 content, negative correlation between renal ET1 content and CPAH/CIN, and positive correlation between renal ET1 content and FENa+ (P<0.01).ConclusionThe increased excretion of renal ET stimulated by endotoxemia may play an important role in the renal dysfunctions in obstructive jaundice.
Objective To investigate the pathological characteristics of hepatic energy metabolism changes following hepatic inflow occlusion and the tolerant limit to ischemia in cholestatic rats.Methods On the day 7 after rats biliary obstruction, the survival rate, hepatic mitochondrial respiratory function, content of ATP, and the ketone body ratio in arterial blood were investigated following the different duration of hepatic ischemia and reperfusion with portal blood bypass.Results The survival rate on postoperative day 10 was 100%, 100% and 40% subjected to 30, 60 and 90min of hepatic vascular occlusion. The hepatic energy metabolic function was decreased markedly following ischemia, and was increased markedly on 24 hours following reperfusion subjected to 30, 60min of hepatic vascular occlusion, but it had less increase with 90min of hepatic vascular occlusion.Conclusion The hepatic energy metabolic function injury is reversible in cholestatic rats, and the rats can tolerate hepatic inflow occlusion within 60min, but the hepatic energy metabolic function injury is irreversible after 90min of hepatic occlusion.
To study the lipid peroxidation injury and the protecting effect of vitamin E emulsion on liver function following acute cholangitis. During the operation and 24 hours after operation, vitamin E emulsion or placebo emulsion was infused via mesenteric vein in rats suffering acute cholangitis. The contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in the liver tissue and serum were measured at 48hrs after operation. Results: As compared with the placebo emulsion group, MDA and mGOT contents in the liver tissue and serum decreased significantly, but SOD activity increased dramatically in the VE emulsion group. ATP content in the infected lobe was much higher than those in the placebo emulsion group. Conclusion: Intravenous infusion of large dose of vitamin E emulsion may reduce the lipid peroxidation reaction in acute cholangitis, and have protecting effect.
Gait recognition is a new technology in biometric recognition and medical treatment which has advantages such as long-distance and non-invasiveness. Depending on the differences between different people's walking postures, we can recognize individuals by characteristics extracted from the images of walking movement. A complete gait recognition process usually includes gait sequence acquisition, gait detection, feature extracting and recognition. In this paper, the commonly used methods of these four processes are introduced, and feature extraction methods are classified from different multi-angle views. And then the new algorithm of multi-view emerged in recent years is highlighted. In addition, this paper summarizes the existing difficulties of gait recognition, and looks into the future development trends of it.
Objective To investigate the effect of quercetin on human breast cancer cells and related mechanism. MethodsHuman breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-435S was treated by different concentrations of quercetin (12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 μmol/L). The inhibition ratio of human breast cancer cell was measured by trypan blue dye exclusion test, the proliferation cycle of human breast cancer cell was analyzed by flow cytometry and the expression of caspase-3 mRNA was determined by RT-PCR. ResultsQuercetin could inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer cell in the dose- and time-dependent manner. Quercetin could change the cell cycle of breast cancer cell, with the concentrations of quercetin increasing, the percentages of breast cancer cell at G0/G1 phase decreased, which increased at S phase, and increased at G2/M phase followed decrease. Quercetin could activate the expression of caspase-3 mRNA in breast cancer cell. ConclusionQuercetin can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of human breast cancer cell, the mechanism may be associated with the change of cell cycle and the upregulation of caspase-3 expression.

By perfusing livers from Wistar rats rendered sepsis with acute obstructive cholangitis(AOC)in vitro in a nonrecirculating mode,we measured the rates of gluconeogenesis from saturating concentration of lactate (5 mmol/L) plus pyruvate (05 mmol/L) and the response of gluconeogenesis to glucagon and epinephrine.We also studied the AOC induced alterations in the milieu of gluconeogenic (glucagon,epinephrine and cortisol) and conterregulatory (insulin) hormones.The results showed the rate of gluconeogenesis of AOC 24 h.group was significantly reduced and this reduction could be compensated by increases of glucose precursors,especially lactate and of gluconeogenic hormones to a serum glucose level as much as 2.5 times the normal which is needed in stress reaction.The rate of gluconeogenesis of AOC 48 h.was further decreased and this decrease could not be compensated probably as a result of severe damage to hepatocytes. The results indicate that the reduced glucose metabolic response due to AOC may play an important role in the development of cholangitisinduced dysfunction of multiple organs.
【Abstract】Objective To establish animal model of orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) in miniature pigs with high standardization, reproducibility and stability. Methods OLTs were performed without venovenous bypass in Bama miniature pigs. The survival rates and the changes of hemodynamics and metabolism were investigated. Results Twenty OLTs were performed between pairs of miniature pigs. The mean operative time and anhepatic phase were (181±25.8) min and (28.4±3.2) min respectively. During the anhepatic phase, dramatic hemodynamics and metabolism changes accompanied hyperkalemia identified. MAP and CVP decreased from (14.59±1.68) kPa and (0.66±0.11) kPa to (5.87±0.91) kPa and (0.27±0.10) kPa respectively, while temperature, pH, BE and HCO3- were significantly reduced (P<0.05) and HR and K+ in serum were remarkable increased. After reperfusion, the disorder of hemodynamics and metabolism described above recovered gradually. 1week survival rate was 90%. Sixteen animals survived more than 2 weeks. AST, ALT and TBIL were significantly increased and reached the peak level on postoperative 1 day. From postoperative 2 day, AST, ALT and TBIL began to decrease and reached postanaesthesia level on postoperative 7 day. Conclusion The animal model of OLT without venovenous bypass in miniature pig, with its high standardization, reproducibility and stability, is an ideal one for series studies related to liver transplantation.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo study the therapeutic effects of indwelling catheters in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). MethodsThe clinical data of 113 patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted to our hospital from Aug. 2002 to May 2004 were collected. The patients were divided into the indwelling catheter group (45 cases) and the control group (68 cases).The APACHEⅡscores and therapeutic results were compared. The drainage and intraabdominal pressure (IPA) were monitored. Results The APACHEⅡscores on day 2 and day 5 after therapy in indwelling catheter group were significantly decreased compared with the control group(P=0.000).The average hospital stay and cyst morbidity of the indwelling catheter group were significantly decreased compared with those of the control group(P=0.000). The mortality rate was lower in the indwelling catheter group, but there was no statistical difference between these two groups(Pgt;0.05). The IAP was positively correlative with the drainage volume, hospital day and APACHEⅡscores(r=0.552, r=0.748, r=0.923,P=0.000). ConclusionThe indwelling catheter is an important treatment in patients with SAP.
