Dynamic changes of cardiovascular regulating factors in rats after aerobic exhaustive exercise

Objective To study the changes of cardiovascular regulating factors in rats during recovery of aerobic exhaustive exercise. Methods Sixty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, 1 h-exercise group, 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group, 2 h-recovery group and 12 h-recovery group. The rats were killed at corresponding times for each group after an 8-week-long treadmill training, and the levels of NO, El-, ANP and TXB2 in plasma were measured in each group. Results NO/ET ratio of 1 h-exercise group was significantly higher than that in control group （P〈0.01）, while it was significantly decreased in 3 h-exercise group and exhausted group （P〈0.05）. ANP contents in rat plasma were significantly higher in 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group and 2 h-recovery group than that in control group （P〈0.05 or P〈0.01）. The concentration of TXB2 in plasma was significantly increased in 3 h-exercise group, exhausted group and 2 h-recovery group （P〈0.05）. Conclusion Changes in cardiovascular regulating factors after exhaustive exercise may lead to deficiency of coronary circulation blood/oxygen supply, which may cause exercise- induced fatigue.     

218例住院糖尿病患者健康教育效果观察

糖尿病(DM)是慢性终身性疾病。如果血糖控制不良，可引起眼睛、神经、肾脏、心血管病变及感染等多种慢性并发症，致残率及死亡率较高。目前治疗DM的方法为：教育、饮食控制、运动疗法、降糖药物应用及自我监测等综合措施，全面有效地控制DM并非单纯依靠用药可以达到，要结合对患者进行健康教育。现将施教方法和体会报告如下。

机械敏感离子通道Piezo1在心血管系统中的作用

机械敏感离子通道(mechanosensitive ion channels, MSC)是一类受机械压力影响而产生兴奋电信号的离子通道,广泛分布于生物各组织器官中,参与生物体内的多种生理过程。最近在哺乳动物体内发现了一种新型的MSC蛋白Piezo1,它与其他MSC蛋白不具有同源性,在细胞感应机械应力的过程中发挥着重要作用。大量研究结果表明,Piezo1在动脉血压的控制、红细胞体积的改变、心脏相关因子的分泌等生理过程中扮演了重要角色,与心血管系统关系密切。在哺乳动物心血管系统中,心脏、动脉血管、毛细微血管和红细胞等都可感受来自细胞外环境机械应力刺激,而Piezo1将机械应力转化为生物电信号,进而影响后续的生理过程。本文介绍了Piezo1在心血管系统中的作用,并总结Piezo1蛋白的具体作用机制及其差异,以期为进一步的研究提供有益参考。
