AIM: To investigate the role of heat-shock protein 70(HSP₇₀) in the protection of myocardial cells against ischemic injury.METHODS: Myocardial cells were cultured in vitro. HSP₇₀ was induced by hyperthermia. H₂O₂-injured myocardial cells were divided into different groups. Flow cytometry, DNA Ladder and biochemistry methods were employed to observe the myocardial cells of different groups.RESULTS: Immunohistochemistry showed hyperthermia induced the up-regulation of HSP₇₀ in myocardial cells. Apoptotic rate, activity analysis of cytochrome C and succinic dehydrogenase in H₂O₂-injuried and HSP₇₀-protected groups were obviously different. Electron micrograph shomed hyperthermia alliviated myocardial cell injury induced by H₂O₂. CONCLUSION: HSP₇₀ delays apoptosis and protects against H₂O₂-induced myocardial cell injury.  相似文献

CHANG Lin  ZHAO Jing  XU Jian-xing  JIANG Wei  QI Yong-fen  TANG Chao-shu 《园艺学报》2004,20(7):1126-1133

AIM: To observe effects of homocysteine and antagonized effects of taurine on electronic leakage and free radical production in myocardial mitochondria. METHODS: Myocardial mitochondria of rat heart was isolated, and was broken by supersonic wave to prepare submitochondria. Recombinant of succinic acid cytochrome c reductase was prepared with mitochondria of porcine heart. They were co-incubated with homocysteine and/or taurine with various concentration. The H₂O₂ and O₂^- were determined by chemiluminescence methods. The taurine transporter of heart mitochondria and its propert, and effects of homocysteine on its function were studied with glass filter. RESULTS: Homocysteine stimulated oxygen free radical production in heart mitochondria, submitochondria, and succinic acid cytochrome c in a concentration-dependent manner. Although taurine itself did not affect oxygen free radical production, taurine did inhibit oxygen free radical production in mitochondria, submitochondria and succinic acid cytochrome c in a concentration-dependent manner. Taurine transporters of Na⁺-dependent were existed in mitochondria membrane. Homocysteine inhibited taurine transtport in mitochondria in a concentration-dependent manner. CONCLUSIONS: Taurine inhibited electronic leakage and oxygen free radical production induced by homocysteine in electron transport chain. There were taurine transporters in mitochondria membrane, and transport functions of taurine transporter were inhibited by homocysteine.  相似文献

ZHANG Ning  XU Yong-jian  ZHANG Zhen-xiang 《园艺学报》2004,20(6):1013-1016

AIM: To investigate the effect of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on activation of nuclear factor κB. METHODS: The techniques of culture of human T lymphocytes, Western blot and RT-PCR were applied. The effects of NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP) at different concentrations on mRNA and protein expression of IκB_α in human T lymphocytes at 30 min or 120 min after stimulating with phytohaemagglutinin (PHA-P) were observed. RESULTS: SNP at middle or high concentrations reduced the degradation of κIB_αprotein 30 min after stimulating with PHA-P,and increased the re-expression of κIB_αmRNA 120 min after stimulating with PHA-P significantly.CONCLUSION: The mechanism of inhibitory effect of SNP at middle or high concentrations may be due to the decrease in degradation and the increase in re-synthesis of κIB_α.The regulatory mechanism of SNP at low concentration may not be through κIB_α.  相似文献

ZHU Ying-yuan  WANG Zi-neng  ZENG Yi-ke  ZHENG Pei-e  XU Jian-ping  GUO Zu-wen  TANG Fu-xing 《园艺学报》2004,20(6):1038-1041

AIM: To obverse the expression and localization of urocortin on ultrathin cryosections of syncytiotrophoblast of human term placenta with immunocytochemistry technique under transmission electron microscope. METHODS: The human term placenta tissue from Cesarean delivery and normal labor were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, and then divided into two parts. One part was for regular immunocytochemistry under microscope, and the other part was used to prepare ultrathin cryosections for immunocytochemistry under transmission electron microscope. RESULTS: 1.Uroncortin mainly distributed in cytoplasm of syncytiotrophoblast of human term placenta under microscope. Urocortin also appeared in cytoplasm in some stromal cells. 2. Under transmission electron microscope, the anti-urocortin gold particles were observed in cytoplasm of syncytioptrophoblast ultrathin cryosections and sited on rough-surfaced endoplasmic reticulum. The anti-urocortin gold particles also appeared on nucleus and nuclear membrane of syncytiotrophoblast. CONCLUSION: Syncytiotrophoblast of human term placenta synthesized and secreted urocortin. The internalization of urocortin within syncytiotrophoblast nuclear indicates that urocortin may act as intracrine.  相似文献   

Gene expression of 5α-reductase (type 2) in reproductive gland of pubertal diabetic rats     

LIU Su-huan  WANG Zhong-shan  XU Zong-ge  XIN Ji-li  ZUO Wen-jing 《园艺学报》2004,20(9):1580-1582

AIM: To study the molecular mechanism of reproduction dysfunction in pubertal diabetic rat, the level of 5α-reductase (type 2) mRNA in testis, epididymis and prostate in diabetic rat was detected. METHODS: The gene expression of 5α-reductase (type 2) was detected by Northern blot. RESULTS: In the caput of the epididymis, the expression of 5α-reductase (type 2) mRNA of D and ID groups was less than that of C group. CONCLUSION: The decreased expression of 5α-reductase (type 2) results in the decreased production of dihydrotestosterone, which influences the development and function of reproduction system in pubertal rats.  相似文献   

Effects of inhibition of Kupffer cell and splenectomy on thioacetamide-induced hepatic injury     

ZHAO Yan  LIU Jin-chun  HAN De-wu  XU Rui-ling 《园艺学报》2004,20(11):2076-2078

AIM: To examine the effects of inhibition of Kupffer cell and splenectomy on intestinal endotoxemia and hepatic injury. METHODS: The hepatic injury model was established by treatment with thioacetamide (TAA). At the same time, inhibition of Kupffer cells by intravenous GdCl₃ and splenectomy were performed. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), TNF-α, endotoxin content and phagocytic index were observed. RESULTS: In the TAA+GdCl₃ group, and TAA+splenectomy group, the endotoxin content was significently higher than that in normal and TAA group (P<0.05). The plasma TNF-α, ALT and total bilirubin were significantly lower than those in TAA group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of Kupffer cells and splenectomy increase plasma endotoxin level, but decreases the plasma TNF-α levels and alleviates the hepatic injury induced by TAA.  相似文献

ZHANG Hui-lan  ZHANG Zhen-xiang  XU Yong-jian 《园艺学报》2004,20(12):2294-2298

AIM: To investigate the effects of NF-κB decoy oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) on apoptosis in lung cancer cell A549. METHODS: The treatments of lung cancer cells (A549) were divided into three groups: group A (control group); group B (decoy ODN group) and group C (scramble decoy ODN group). FITC-labeled NF-κB decoy ODNs was transfected into A549 with LipofectAMINE^TM2000. The activation was observed by electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA). The proliferation was observed by growth curve. The apoptosis of cells were observed by flow cytometry and TdT mediated dUTP-biotin Nick End Labeling (TUNEL). The expression of Bcl-2 and Fas were observed by Western blot. RESULTS: After FITC-labeled decoy ODNs was transfected for 1 hour, the decoy ODNs was detected in the nuclei of A549 cells. EMSA performed the depression of the NF-κB binding to the nucleus. The growth curve showed the inhibition of the A549 cell growth and the percentage of apoptosis was increased compare with control group by flow cytometry and TUNEL. The amount of apoptosis inhibitor (Bcl-2) in group A and group C were 2.0 times and 2.1 times more than that in group B, respectively. The level of apoptosis accelerator (Fas) in group B were 2.6 times and 2.3 times more than that in group A and group C, respectively via Western blot. CONCLUSION: The NF-κB decoy ODNs accelerate the apoptosis of lung cancer cell A549 and the mechanism may be due to its inhibiting the expression of Bcl-2 and increasing the level of Fas.  相似文献
