三种兔单肺通气模型的比较

目的采用三种方法建立兔单肺通气模型并比较其效果。方法日本大耳白兔30只,随机分为3组(即A、B、C组)各10个,分别采用自制双腔气管导管法、左主支气管结扎法和插管过深法。呼吸机通气参数为:FiO21.0,RR 40/min,VT 10 mL/kg。单肺通气2 h后恢复双肺通气。记录各组单肺通气实施的一次成功率、总成功率、从气管切开开始到单肺通气实施所需要的时间、动物失血量。实验结束后开胸测量兔气管、左主支气管、右主支气管的长度和内径。结果各组进入实验的动物数分别为10、6、8只。与B、C组比较,A组一次成功率和总成功率高,所需时间明显较少(P<0.01),且出血量明显少于B组(P<0.01)。结论采用自制双腔气管导管能迅速有效的建立单肺通气模型,是用于研究与单肺通气相关病理生理机制的理想模型。     

Evaluating osteochondral defect repair potential of autologous rabbit bone marrow cells on type II collagen scaffold

The feasibility of using genipin cross-linked type II collagen scaffold with rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (RBMSCs) to repair cartilage defect was herein studied. Induction of RBMSCs into chondrocytic phenotype on type II collagen scaffold in vitro was conducted using TGF-β 3 containing medium. After 3-weeks of induction, chondrocytic behavior, including marker genes expression and specific extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion, was observed. In the in vivo evaluation experiment, the scaffolds containing RBMSCs without prior induction were autologous implanted into the articular cartilage defects made by subchondral drilling. The repairing ability was evaluated. After 2 months, chondrocyte-like cells with lacuna structure and corresponding ECM were found in the repaired sites without apparent inflammation. After 24 weeks, we could easily find cartilage structure the same with normal cartilage in the repair site. In conclusion, it was shown that the scaffolds in combination of in vivo conditions can induce RBMSCs into chondrocytes in repaired area and would be a possible method for articular cartilage repair in clinic and cartilage tissue engineering.

Synaptic connections of cone bipolar cells that express the neurokinin 1 receptor in the rabbit retina

We have investigated and further characterized, in the rabbit retina, the synaptic connectivity of the ON-type cone bipolar cells that are immunoreactive for an antibody against the neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1R). NK1R-immunoreactive bipolar cell axons terminate in stratum 4 of the inner plexiform layer. The axons of NK1R-positive bipolar cells receive synaptic inputs from amacrine cells through conventional synapses and from putative AII amacrine cells via gap junctions. The major outputs from NK1R-positive bipolar cells make contacts with amacrine cell processes. The most frequent postsynaptic dyads comprise two amacrine cell processes. Double-labeling experiments with antibodies against NK1R and either calretinin or glycine have demonstrated that NK1R-immunoreactive bipolar cells form gap junctions with AII amacrine cells. Thus, NK1R-positive cone bipolar cells, together with calbindin-positive cone bipolar cells, may play an important role in transferring rod signals to the ON-type ganglion cells of the cone pathway in the rabbit retina.I.-B.

Saliva affects the antifungal activity of exogenously added histatin 3 towards Candida albicans

Antifungal activity of histatin 3 against two Candida albicans clinical isolates was determined in assays containing rabbit submandibular gland saliva. Histatin 3 inhibited the cell growth and germination of both isolates dose-dependently (10-100 microg ml(-1)) with maximum inhibition occurring after 60 min incubation. Adding fresh histatin 3 after 60 min caused further reduction in the viable cell count. Higher histatin 3 concentrations (50-100 microg ml(-1)) and prolonged exposure to peptide were required to inhibit germination. Histatin 3 was rapidly degraded in rabbit submandibular gland saliva and this may explain why fresh addition of histatin 3 increases candidacidal activity.     

The role of intracellular cAMP in renal gluconeogenesis in view of differential action of various cAMP analogues

Effects of various cAMP analogues on gluconeogenesis in isolated rabbit kidney tubules have been investigated. In contrast to N(6),2'-O-dibutyryladenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (db-cAMP) and cAMP, which accelerate renal gluconeogenesis, 8-bromoadenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (Br-cAMP) and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (pCPT-cAMP) inhibit glucose production. Stimulatory action of cAMP and db-cAMP may be evoked by butyrate and purinergic agonists generated during their extracellular and intracellular metabolism resulting in an increase in flux through fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase and in consequence acceleration of the rate of glucose formation. On the contrary, Br-cAMP is poorly metabolized in renal tubules and induces a fall of flux through glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. The contribution of putative extracellular cAMP receptors to the inhibitory Br-cAMP action is doubtful in view of a decline of glucose formation in renal tubules grown in the primary culture supplemented with forskolin. The presented data indicate that in contrast to hepatocytes, in kidney-cortex tubules an increased intracellular cAMP level results in an inhibition of glucose production.     

血液磁极化疗法对糖尿病兔胰岛功能的影响

目的观察血液磁极化疗法(简称血磁治疗)对糖尿病(DM)的治疗效果和对胰岛功能的影响。方法制备了四氧嘧啶DM兔模型20只,随机分为两组,即DM模型血磁治疗组及DM模型未治疗组,同时设立正常对照组10只,分别测定治疗前后空腹血糖(FPG)、糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)、胰岛素(INS)及C-肽(C-P),并于观察期结束后处死动物取胰腺组织常规石蜡包埋切片,行HE及Mallory三色法特殊染色观察3组胰岛形态学变化。结果血磁治疗显著降低DM兔的FPG(P<0.001)。DM治疗组INS及C-P水平较治疗前明显升高(P<0.01),与未治疗组相比差异显著(P<0.05)。胰岛病理改变可见治疗组β细胞数量明显多于DM未治疗组,提示血磁疗法具有促进胰岛修复,改善胰岛功能的作用。结论血磁疗法能够促进DM时受损胰岛组织的修复,改善胰岛β细胞分泌功能,降血糖作用明显。     

兔脑种植VX2肿瘤动物模型的建立

目的建立兔VX2肿瘤脑内种植动物模型,观察其生长特性。方法采用兔脑内VX2肿瘤组织块种植法将VX2肿瘤组织块种植入24只成年New Zealand大白兔右侧大脑皮质内,用B超检测肿瘤的生长情况,在实验兔在肿瘤种植后第13、171、9、21、232、5天取材,进行组织学观察。并观察实验兔在种植VX2肿瘤后的生存期及出现厌食、偏瘫等神经系统体征和死亡的时间。结果VX2肿瘤组织块种植入脑内后荷瘤兔的中位生存期为24.5 d,平均生存期为24.8 d,肿瘤体积随种植后的时间在对数坐标中接近一条直线。VX2肿瘤种植入兔脑17 d后血供较丰富、呈鱼肉状生长,与正常脑组织边缘界限不清楚,第17~19天肿瘤中心出现坏死并出现腹腔内转移。光镜下从VX2肿瘤种植后第17天开始肿瘤细胞向正常脑组织浸润,并形成瘤巢,瘤周脑组织形成水肿带。结论在缺乏兔源性脑肿瘤的情况下,采用兔VX2肿瘤组织块颅内种植能较好模拟颅内肿瘤生长,为对脑肿瘤的某些实验研究提供条件。
