AIM: To probe into the role of 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate inositol (IP3) and survivin protein in apoptosis of HepG2 cells induced by genistein. METHODS: HepG2 cells were treated with 60 μmol/L genistein for 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h. IP3, survivin and apoptosis rate were assayed by IP3-[3H] Birtrak assay, Western blotting and flow cytometry, respectively. RESULTS: IP3 in groups incubated for 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h with 60 μmol/L genistein were significantly lower than that in control (P<0.01) [(12.0±1.4) pmol/106cells, (7.5±0.8) pmol/106 cells, (5.6±0.5) pmol/106cells, (3.3±0.6) pmol/106 cells, vs (29.2±0.6) pmol/106 cells]. V-survivin/ V-β-actin, which was the gray degree multiply area of survivin/the gray degree multiply area of β-actin in groups incubated for 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h with 60 μmol/L genistein, were significantly lower than that in control (P<0.01) [(0.36±0.13, 0.33±0.03, 0.23±0.04, 0.18±0.04), vs 0.63±0.06]. The apoptosis rate in groups incubated with 60 μmol/L genistein for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h was significantly higher than that in control (P<0.01) [(7.4%±0.5%, 20.5%±2.0%, 30.7%±1.6%) vs 2.6%±0.1%]. CONCLUSION: Genistein induces apoptosis in HepG2 cells by reducing IP3 production and survivin protein expression.  相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the contribution of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and nitrotyrosine to acute lung injury (ALI) in rats with meconium aspiration. METHODS: 16 health male Sprage-Dawley rats were randomized to control group and meconium group, followed by intratracheally administration of 1 mL/kg saline or 1 mL/kg 20% human newborn meconium suspension. The animals were killed after 24 h of treatment. The measurements included bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cell count, pulmonary myoloperoxidase (MPO) activity and nitric oxide (NO) level. Western bloting was used to determine the expression of pulmonary nitrotyrosine-a specific “footprint” of peroxynitrite and iNOS. RESULTS: Compared to control group, the rats in the meconium group had increased BALF cell counts [(4.04±1.01)×109cells/L vs (0.53±0.19)×109cells/L], pulmonary MPO activity [(1.49±0.22)U/g wet lung tissue vs (0.62±0.16) U/g wet lung tissue], NO level [(12.77±5.00) mmol/g protein vs (4.89±1.32) mmol/g protein], increased expression of nitrotyrosine and iNOS (0.46±0.19 and 1.49±0.60 vs 0.15±0.04 and 0.09±0.04, respectively), all P<0.01. CONCLUSIONS: Meconium results in an increase in expression of pulmonary iNOS, leading to over production of NO and nitrotyrosine, which may be of pathogenic importance in the ALI with meconium aspiration.  相似文献

AIM: To observe effect of γ radioactive [103Pd] stent on the proliferation and apoptosis of smooth muscle cells, the mechanism of radioactive stent preventing in-stent restenosis was explored. METHODS: Fifty male New Zealand rabbits were randomized into stent group and [103Pd] stent group. Control group was set up. The materials were harvested on 3, 7, 14, 28, 56 days after operation and the following investigation were carried out, including pathomorphology, immunohistochemistry, apoptosis (TUNEL) and in situ hybridization studies.RESULTS: ① The severity of the stenosis in [103Pd] stent group was less severe than that in stent group. It was most obvious on 56 th day (P<0.01). ② The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA) of [103Pd] stent group was lower than that in stent group on 3 to 28 days. It was most obvious on 7th day, 16.35%±0.79% vs 24.36±0.55% (P<0.01). ③ TUNEL method showed that the [103Pd] stent group had much more apoptosis of VSMC than that in stent group. The highest rate of apoptosis appeared on day 7, 14.72%±0.53% vs 12.42%±1.13% (P<0.01). ④ By calculating the ratio of PCNA/apoptosis (P〖KG*6〗∶〖KG-*2〗A), a much lower ratio was seen in [103Pd]-stent groups than that in stent group at 3 to 28 days. There was significant statistic difference (P<0.05). ⑤ For bcl-2/bax ratio, the result in [103Pd]-stent group was lower than that in stent group at 3 to 28 days. There was significant statistic difference (P<0.05).CONCLUSION: γ radioactive stent inhibits the proliferation and accelerates apoptosis of injured media vascular smooth muscle cells. It decreases the ratio of proliferation to apoptosis and relieves the severity of restenosis.  相似文献

AIM: To compare the evaluations for the structure and function of the hypertrophic hearts induced by volume overload or pressure overload in rats. METHODS: Volume overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy was established by abdominal aortacaval fistula (ACF) and pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy was developed by constriction of aorta (CA). The cardiac structure and function were analyzed by echocardiography, hemodynamic determination, heart weight measurement and histological examination. RESULTS: Heart weight of rats in all the operated groups was increased compared to the sham-operated groups. In 1-week ACF group, the internal diameter [(0.67±0.03)cm vs (0.60±0.02)cm, P<0.01] and volume of left ventricle increased [(0.69±0.10)mL vs (0.50±0.04)mL, P<0.01],relative wall thickness (RWT) decreased (0.46±0.05 vs 0.55±0.05, P<0.01), compared with the sham-operated group. In 1-week CA group, interventricular septal thickness [(0.20±0.03)cm vs (0.16±0.02)cm, P<0.05], left ventricular posterior wall thickness [(0.20±0.03)cm vs (0.16±0.02)cm, P<0.01], RWT (0.71±0.17 vs 0.56±0.12, P<0.05) and +dp/dtmax (4 886±1 304 vs 3 674±325, P<0.05) were all increased compared with the sham-operated group. In 2-week-groups, these parameters changed more significiantly. CONCLUSION: Cardiac structure and function could be evaluated by echocardiography and hemodynamic determination. RWT is a sensitive index for the cardiac hypertrophy induced by both volume overload and pressure overload.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effects of sodium valproate (VPA) on the cell cycle and apoptosis of chronic myeloid leukemia cell line K562, and to explore the possible mechanisms. METHODS:K562 cells were treated with VPA. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of p21WAF1 mRNA was detected by RT-PCR. RESULTS:After treatment with VPA, cell cycle was arrested obviously at G0/G1 phase [(82.30±9.41)% vs (40.13±2.12)%, P<0.05]. The apoptotic rate was significantly higher in the cells treated with VPA than that in untreated cells [(11.47%±0.25%) vs (4.77%±0.40%), P<0.05]. The level of p21WAF1 mRNA was increased [(1.65±0.91) vs (0.25±0.04), P<0.05]. CONCLUSION:VPA induces elevated expression of p21WAF1 mRNA in K562 cells, resulting in G0/G1 phase arrest and apoptosis in vitro.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the expression of PI3K in airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) of asthmatic rats.METHODS: 16 Wistar rats were divided into two groups, asthma and normal control at random. After establishment of asthmatic model, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence and Western blotting were applied to detect the growth fraction of ASMC and the expression of PI3K in cultured ASMC from each rat.RESULTS: It was revealed from flow cytometry that the ratio of S + G2/M to total number of cells in asthma group [ (27.90±3.44) % ] was higher than that in normal control group [ (13.00±1.56) %, P<0.05]. The expression of PI3K was observed in both asthma and normal control group. However, it was much higher in asthma group than that in normal control group. There was a positive correlation between the expression of PI3K and the growth fraction in ASMC. CONCLUSION: The increased expression of PI3K might play an important role in regulating the proliferation of ASMC in asthma.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of rosiglitazone (RSG) to improve insulin sensitivity on myocardial energy substrate utilization as well as the cardiac function in a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: Sprague-Dawley rats were conducted into three groups: chow-fed rats were fed with normal chow (12% of calories as fat); fat-fed/STZ rats were fed with high-fat diet (40% of calories as fat) for 4 weeks and then injected with streptozotocin 35 mg/kg intraperitoneal; fat-fed/STZ/RSG rats were fat-fed/STZ rats treated with rosiglitazone (3 mg·kg-1·d-1) for 2 weeks. A cannula connected to a passive transducer was inserted the heart for the measurement of the cardiac function including heart rate (HR), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (EDP) and ±dp/dtmax. Then the isolated hearts were mounted onto a Langendorff perfusion apparatus to perfuse with Krebs-Henseleit buffer in the presence of 5 mmol/L glucose and 0.4 mmol/L [3H] labelled palmitate. Glucose uptake and [3H2O] collection were measured to evaluate the rate of carbohydrate and fatty acid oxidation. RESULTS: Compared with the chow-fed rats, fat-fed/STZ rats had a significantly depression of glucose uptake in the hearts [(54.7±6.2 vs 69.0±5.7) μmol·g-1 dry weight, P<0.01] after 30 min perfusion. The oxidation of glucose and palmitate were 18% and 82%, respectively. Paralleling the reduction was a change of EDP [(14.3±1.8 vs 10.5±1.1) mmHg, P<0.05] and -dp/dt [(550±57 vs 650±42) mmHg/s, P<0.01], indicating a impaired left ventricular diastolic function. In the hearts subjected to fat-fed/STZ group, rosiglitazone treated for 2 weeks resulted in a elevated level of glucose uptake [(63.5±6.4 vs 54.7±6.2) μmol·g-1 dry weight, P<0.05]. A protective role of the ventricular function [EDP decreased from (14.8±1.9) to (11.0±0.8) mmHg/s and -dp/dtmax increased from (558±60) to (629±51) mmHg/s, P<0.05] were observed. CONCLUSIONS: Our study indicates that there is a depression of glucose oxidation and at increase in fatty acid oxidation in type 2 diabetic hearts. Elevation of insulin sensitivity using rosiglitazone increases the myocardial glucose metabolism and shows a benefitial result to heart functions.  相似文献

AIM: To study the apoptotic role of wild-type p53 in induction of plaque instability in atherosclerotic rabbits. METHODS: Fifty-four New Zealand White rabbits underwent balloon-induced abdominal aortic wall injury and then were fed on a diet of 1% cholesterol. At the end of the eighth week, the rabbits were randomly divided into two groups: group A and group B. Recombinant adenovirus carrying p53 and β-galactosidase (LacZ) genes were injected in group A and B, respectively. Two weeks later, 10 rabbits each in group A and B was killed and the remaining rabbits all underwent pharmacological triggering with injection of Chinese Russell's viper venom and histamine. RESULTS: Compared with group B, p53 gene over-expression in group A resulted in a marked increase in number of positive apoptotic cells (2.5%±0.8% vs 1.0%±0.3%, P<0.05) and a significant decrease in vascular smooth muscle cells (47.5%±6.8% vs 80.4%±10.6%, P<0.01), the thickness of the fibrous cap [(132.9±56.7)μm vs (181.8±59.7) μm, P<0.05] and the cap/intima-media ratio (0.20±0.18 vs 0.21±0.11, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Transfer of human wild-type p53 genes effectively promotes apoptosis of VSMCs in atherosclerotic plaques, which makes the plaques vulnerable to rupture.  相似文献

AIM: To evaluate the inhibitory effect of FRNK on the phosphorylation of FAK and apoptosis in hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). METHODS: After stimulated with fibronectin, HSCs was transfected with FRNK plasmid by cationic liposome method. The apoptosis of FRNK-induced HSCs was examined by Annexin-V/propidium iodide double-labeled flow cytometry (FCM), gel electrophoresis and transmission electron microscope. The protein levels of FRNK, FAK and p-FAK (Tyr397) in HSCs were assayed by Western blotting, and RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of mRNA. RESULTS: The expression of FRNK was enhanced and the phosphorylation of FAK was inhibited after FRNK was transiently transfected into HSCs in vitro. The apoptotic rate in HSCs exposed to FRNK plasmid for 48 h was higher than that in the non-FRNK plasmid group [(25.37±1.92) % vs (9.28±1.05) %, P<0.01], and accompanied by a significant increase in caspase-3 activity both in the protein and in the mRNA level [(264.17±12.60 vs 185.82±9.69), P<0.01; (4.19±0.48 vs 1.07±0.27), P<0.01]. CONCLUSION: In HSCs, the expression of FRNK is enhanced and the phosphorylation of FAK is inhibited after FRNK transfection. FRNK induces the HSCs apoptosis.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate whether nimesulide [a selective cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) inhibitor] and piroxicam (an inhibitor of COX-1) protect the rat hearts against oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide,superoxide anion or hydroxyl free radical.METHODS: Cardiac contractility,lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were analyzed by the Langendorff method in isolated rat hearts.Production of 6-Keto-PGF1α,a marker of COX activity,was measured in isolated rat hearts.RESULTS: Rat hearts were exposed to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2),pyrogallol (which produced superoxide anion) or Vit C+Fe2+ (which produced hydroxyl free radical) for 10 min followed by reperfusion for 30 min.H2O2 decreased cardiac contractility and increased LDH release,which was inhibited by nimesulide (3 mg/kg) [LVDP 72%±10% vs 61%±11%,LDH (5.5±2.5)U/L vs (8.0±2.1)U/L,P<0.05].Piroxicam (3 mg/kg) increased systolic function (LVDP 73%±10% vs 61%±11%,P<0.05),but exacerbated diastolic function [LVEDP (29.00±5.61)mmHg vs (23.16±3.57) mmHg,P<0.01] in H2O2 treated rat hearts.Nimesulide also protected rat hearts against superoxide anion and hydroxyl free radical injury.Nimesulide and piroxicam had no effect on the content of 6-Keto-PGF in rat hearts.Mitochondrial ATP sensitive potassium channel (mitoKATP) inhibitor 5-HD blocked the improvement of contractility (LVDP and ±dp/dtmax) induced by nimesulide in H2O2 treated rat hearts (53%±12% vs 69%±3%,58%±11% vs 72%±7% and 37%±8% vs 51%±4% respectively,P<0.01).CONCLUSION: The results suggests that COX-2 inhibitor nimesulide can protect rat hearts against oxidative injury.The protection is independent of COX activity.Activation of mitoKATP may be involved in nimsulide-induced cardioprotection in rat hearts.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the change of delayed rectifier potassium channel (KV) activity in alveolar macrophages (AM) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) rats. METHODS: COPD model was established by exposure of the animals to cigarette smoke. With whole-cell voltage- or current-clamp techniques, KV activity, membrane capacitance and resting membrane potential (Em) in AM from COPD model and control rats were compared. RESULTS: (1) Significant increases in total mononuclear cells and AM in bronchoal aveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were found in COPD group compared with in control group. (2) The AM KV current altitude in COPD group [(520.5±38.7)pA, +50 mV, n=30] was significantly lower than that in control group [(713.6±44.4)pA, +50 mV, n=30, P<0.01]; (3) AM from COPD group had no significantly different capacitances (P>0.05), but had more positive Em (P<0.01) compared with those from control group. CONCLUSION: Inhibition of KV function, increase in excitability and more positive Em in AM from COPD rats may be involved in the AM contribution to the COPD development.  相似文献

AIM: To explore the effects of pentoxifylline (PTX) on ventricular remodeling and cardiac function in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) rats.METHODS: Lewis rats were randomly allocated to a myocin-induced dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) group receiving saline (n=10), a DCM group receiving PTX (PTX group; 25 mg·kg-1·d-1, ip, for 30 days, n=10) or healthy control group (n=10). The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10 in the blood plasma were analyzed by ELISA. The extent of fibrosis was estimated using Massons staining and immunohistochemistry analyses. Cardiac structure and function were measured by echocardiography.RESULTS: PTX decreased plasma levels of TNF-α and IL-6, and increased IL-10 level in DCM animals compared with DCM group [TNF-α: (7.21±0.24) μg/L vs (19.30±1.31) μg/L, P<0.01; IL-6: (119.60±36.58) ng/L vs (189.50±13.25) ng/L, P<0.05; IL-10: (41.26±3.27) μg/L vs (32.45±4.32) μg/L, P<0.05]. Collagen volume fraction (CVF), perivascular collagen area (PVCA) and collagen Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio were lower in PTX group than those in DCM group [CVF: (16.45±3.01)% vs (23.33±4.43)%, P<0.05; PVCA: 4.58±2.10 vs 13.74±4.29, P<0.05; Ⅰ/Ⅲ ratio: 2.84±0.67 vs 4.22±0.54, P<0.01]. Left ventricular end-diastolic dimension reduced [(6.11±0.51) mm vs (6.46±0.28) mm, P<0.05] and left ventricular ejection fraction elevated [(77.29±5.20)% vs (62.73±10.11)%, P<0.01] by PTX compared with DCM.CONCLUSION: PTX modulates plasma levels of inflammatory cytokines, delays the ventricle remodeling and improves the heart function in DCM rats.  相似文献

AIM:To investigate the effect of subtotal splenectomy on the expression of CD4+、CD8+ and tuftsin in cirrhosic rats with portal hypertension (PHT) . METHODS:Rats liver cirrhosis was induced by subcutaneous injection of 40% CCl4. Fifty rats were randomly divided into five groups (n=10). Group A:control rats;group B:PHT rats;group C:normal rats with total splenectomy;group D:PHT with total splenectomy and group E:PHT with subtotal splenectimy. The hepatic function, the expression of CD4+, CD8+, the ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ and tuftsin were analyzed at the fourth week after treatment. RESULTS:The expression of tuftsin ,the ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ was significantly decreased in PHT rats with total splenectomy compared with PHT rats [(171±21) ng/L vs (433±44)ng/L,P<0.01;(2.01±0.22 vs 1.12±0.12),P<0.01]. In the group of PHT rats with subtotal splenectomy, the expression of tuftsin, the ratio of CD4+ to CD8+ was higher than those in the PHT rats with total splenectomy [(434±42) ng/L vs (171±21) ng/L,P<0.01;(1.97±0.18 vs 1.12±0.12,P<0.01], however, the hepatic function was not show difference(P>0.05). CONCLUSION:Spleen and immune function is significantly improved in PHT rats after subtotal splenectomy, but the hepatic function is not changed significantly.  相似文献

AIM:To study the protective effect of ethyl pyruvate (EP) on hepatocytes in septic mice. METHODS:The cecal ligation-perforation was made in mice as septic model. Ringers ethyl pyruvate solution (REPS) and Ringers lactic solution (RLS) were used to resuscitate septic mice. Anti-oxidative capacity of hepatic tissue and liver function were detected in different groups. RESULTS:Anti-oxidative capacity in septic mice was significantly lower than that in sham group (P<0.01). EP promoted the anti-oxidative capacity of hepatic tissue in septic mice. Malondialdehyde level was lower in REPS group than that in RLS group [(48.18±5.98) μmol·g-1 protein vs (78.34±11.16) μmol·g-1 protein], superoxide dismutase [(5.19±1.41)103 U/g protein vs (3.20±1.08)103 U/g protein] and total anti-oxidative capacity [(7.02±1.79)103 U/g protein vs (4.77±1.35)103 U/g protein] level were higher in REPS group than those in RLS group (P<0.01). Alanine aminotransferase in REPS group were lower than that in RLS group [(210.06±23.36) U vs (458.86±51.55) U, P<0.01]. CONCLUSION:Ethyl pyruvate is an effective anti-oxidant in septic mice, which significantly increases the anti-oxidative capacity in hepatic tissue and ameliorates liver function.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate if beta2-adrenergic receptors result in more Ca2+ load after myocardial infarction (MI), the effects of beta2-adrenergic blocker on cytosolic Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) were studied. METHODS: Male Wistar rats underwent a ligation of left coronary artery (n=9) or a sham operation (n=3). Cardiomyocytes were dissociated at 2, 4 and 8 weeks after MI and [Ca2+]i was measured via fura-2 fluorescence. The response of cardiomyocytes to isoproterenol (1 μmol/L) in the presence or absence of atenolol (1 μmol/L), beta2-adrenergic blocker ICI118,551 (0.1 μmol/L) or propranolol (1 μmol/L) was examined. RESULTS: ICI118,551 suppressed the increase in [Ca2+]i induced by isoproterenol at 4 and 8 weeks after MI (24.5%±5.7% vs 57.8%±13.2%, P<0.01; 12.2%±7.9% vs 44.6%±11.3%, P<0.01), but had no effects in control and 2 weeks post-MI groups. It decreased [Ca2+]i in control and the three post-MI groups by 14.3%, 7.9%, 57.6% and 72.6%, respectively. Atenolol had suppressive effects only in control and 2 weeks post-MI groups (P<0.05). Propranolol had suppressive effects in control and all three post-MI groups (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Beta 2-adrenergic blocker ICI118,551 exerts negative effects on [Ca2+]i after MI, and the effects dramatically increase with the progression of MI.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of N-acetylcystein (NAC) on oxidant stress, neuron apoptosis in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats exposured to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). METHODS: 30 healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups of 10 each, a CIH group, a NAC therapeutic group and a control group. The levels of MDA and SOD were detected by colorimetric method. Immunohistochemistry was used to examine the expression of p-JNK and TUNEL was used to detect the neuron apoptosis in the hippocampal CA1 region. RESULTS: The level of MDA in NAC group were lower than that in CIH group[(1.71±0.43) μmol/g protein vs (1.37±0.26) μmol/g protein, P<0.05)]. The activity of SOD in NAC group was higher than that in CIH group[(44.94±14.01) 103 NU/g protein vs(57.66±14.07) 103 NU/g protein, P<0.05)]. The expression of p-JNK protein and the apoptotic indices [(0.39±0.16), (0.20±0.11)] in NAC group were significantly lower than those in CIH group [(0.53±0.10), (0.32±0.18), all P<0.05]. CONCLUSION: NAC protects hippocampal neuron from apoptosis by suppressing the oxidant stress in the hippocampal CA1 region and inhibiting the activation of JNK signaling pathway.  相似文献

AIM: To investigate the effect of pioglitazone (Pio) on glucose metabolism and peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor (PPAR)-γ expression in free fatty acid (FFA) -induced insulin resistance in rats. METHODS: A hyperinsulinaemic-euglycaemic clamp and [3-3H]-glucose tracing technique were used in awake rats. Glucose metabolism in vivo and PPAR-γ in adipose tissue expression were assessed with elevation FFA by lipid infusion over 4 h in rats pretreated with or without Pio.RESULTS: During steady-state of clamp, there was a significant increase in plasma FFA in two lipid-infused groups, compared to control rats (P<0.01). The glucose infusion rates (GIR) in Pio-treated rats (P/L group), compared with controls, were significantly reduced [(20.6±0.4) mg·kg-1·min-1 vs (33.6±0.6)mg·kg-1· min-1, P<0.01], whereas the GIR was lower in the lipid group (L group) than that in the P/L group[(12.6±0.8) mg·kg-1·min-1 vs (20.6±0.4) mg·kg-1·min-1, P<0.01]. The hepatic glucose production (HGP) was significantly suppressed (85%) [(18.3±2.1)mg· kg-1·min-1 (basal) vs (2.7±2.4)mg· kg-1·min-1, and (17.5±2.6) mg· kg-1·min-1 vs (2.6±1.0)mg· kg-1·min-1], all P<0.01 during clamp in control and P/L groups. The suppressive effect of insulin on HGP was significantly blunted in L group[(17.3±2.1)mg· kg-1·min-1 vs (15.8±1.5)mg· kg-1·min-1]. The rate of glucose disappearance (GRd) was significantly reduced in two lipid-infused rats compared with controls[(26.6±1.6)mg· kg-1·min-1 and (23.2±0.9)mg· kg-1·min-1 vs (37.7±2.6)mg·kg-1·min-1,P<0.01]. The PPAR-γ expression of adipose tissue in P/L group was significantly upregulated. CONCLUSION: Lipid-infusion induces an acute insulin-resistance in vivo. Pio treatment upregulates the PPAR-γ of adipose tissue and suppresses HGP. Pio can protect partly against lipid-induced insulin resistance.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effects of M. vaccae on eosinophil apoptosis and Bcl-2 protein expression in lung tissues of asthmatic guinea pigs. METHODS: 30 guinea pigs were divided into normal saline (NS) group, asthma group and M. vaccae treatment group at random, every group included 10 guinea pigs. Guinea pigs in M. vaccae treatment group were injected intramuscularly with 22.5 μg M. vaccae 10 days before OVA immunization. TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique was used to investigate the apoptosis of eosinophils and immunohistochemistry method was used to study the expression of Bcl-2 protein in lung tissues. RESULTS: The apoptosis index (AI) of eosinophils in lung tissues in M. vaccae treatment group was significant higher than that in asthma group [(23.78±5.42)% vs (4.56±0.68)%, P<0.01]. The mean optical density value of Bcl-2 protein in lung tissues of M. vaccae treatment group was significant lower than that of asthma group [(1 556.3±492.4) vs (2 321.9±751.2), P<0.05].

AIM:To observe the influence of captopril on intracellular free calcium concentration ([Ca2+] i) and the involved ion channels mechanisms in cardiac myocytes of the neonatal rat undergone anoxia-reoxygenation injury.METHODS:The anoxia-reoxygenation model in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes was established.Groups were divided into ① normal;② anoxia-reoxygenation;③anoxia-preconditioning (5 min anoxia+5 min reoxygenation);④ captopril preconditioning.Flou-3 /AM loading and flow cytometry technique were used to observe the [Ca2+]i,and whole-cell patch clamp technique was used to record the L-type calcium current and Na+/Ca2+ exchange current.RESULTS:① Compared to normal group,[Ca2+]i in anoxia -reoxygenation group was increased significantly (789.42±9.05 vs 414.08±37.40,P<0.01),L-type calcium current density was decreased (P<0.01),the current-voltage curve was moved up,the inactivation curve was moved left and Na+/Ca2+ exchange current was increased in anoxia-deoxygenating.② Compared to anoxia-reoxygenation group,anoxia and captopril preconditioning resulted in a significant decrease in [Ca2+]i (593.84±5.06,507.08±31.89 vs 789.42±9.05,P<0.01),and a significant increase in L-type calcium current density (P<0.01),the current-voltage curve was moved down,the inactivation curve was moved right and Na+/Ca2+ exchange current was decreased ③ Compared to normal oxygen condition,the anoxia and captopril precondition resulted in a lightly increase in [Ca2+]i (507.08±31.89 vs 414.08±37.40,P<0.05) and Na+/Ca2+ exchange current.④ Compared to anoxia-preconditioning group,captopril-preconditioning resulted in no significant difference in all the markers mentioned above.CONCLUSIONS:The anoxia-reoxygenation injury in cardiac myocytes results in [Ca2+]i abnormal increase and calcium overload by increasing Na+/Ca2+ exchange current.Late preconditioning in cardiac myocytes is triggered by transient and repeated anoxia and captopril,which slightly increases Na+/Ca2+ exchange current and [Ca2+]i and restraines the abnormal increasing of Na+/Ca2+ exchange current and calcium overload induced by subsequenced anoxia-reoxygenation injury,so it plays an delayed protective role in cardiac myocytes.L-typed calcium passage is not involved in calcium overloaded and late preconditioning of calcium in myocytes during reperfusion.  相似文献
