ObjectiveTo study the feasibility of the establishment of transplantated hepatic cancer models in SD rats. MethodsThe male weaning SD rats were inoculated and transgenerated from the celiar transplantation tumor rats (W2562k) by intraperitoneal injection of abdominal fluid of tumor cells, another weaningSD rats were prepared for the models of solid tumor by subcutaneous inoculation of the abdominal fluid of tumor cells. The solid tumors were cut to pieces of 0.2 cm×0.2 cm×0.3 cm,which were implanted into the liver of the adult male SD rats, and the transplantation hepative tumor models were established. After 7 days, the volume and weight of tumor mass was measured. ResultsThe successful rate of model was 100% (82/82), the natural extinctive rate was 0 (0/82), the successful rate of inoculation was 100% (15/15). ConclusionSD rats are economical, the successful rate of model was high, the natural extinctive low, so the SD rats are ideal selection in establishing transplantation liver cancer model.
Objective To review evidences of the relationship between olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) transplantation and motor functional restitution of spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods We searched the CBM, CNKI, VIP and PubMed databases for collecting relative studies published from January 1989 to December 2009. Randomized controlled experiments of treating rats SCI with OECs transplantation were included. Quality of included experiments was assessed by Jadad scale, and the available data were abstracted and meta-analyzed with RevMan 4.2 software. Results A total of 12 randomized controlled experiments were identified. Meta-analysis showed that, OECs group was higher than control group in both BBB score (WMD=1.67, 95%CI 0.99 to 2.36; WMD=3.61, 95%CI 1.97 to 5.26; WMD=6.50, 95%CI 5.76 to 7.24; WMD=4.23, 95%CI 1.19 to 7.28; WMD=1.90, 95%CI 1.22 to 2.58; WMD=3.30, 95%CI 2.63 to 3.97) and MEP latency period (WMD= – 3.98, 95%CI – 5.71 to – 2.25), but there was no statistical significance in SEP latency period or amplitude period (WMD= – 7.13, 95%CI – 16.49 to 2.23; WMD=3.00, 95%CI – 1.12 to 7.11; WMD=1.95, 95%CI – 0.89 to4.78). Conclusions This meta-analysis based on current experiments suggests that OECs transplantation is superior in motor function restitution after spinal cord injury, but is similar as control group in SEP latency or amplitude.
目的:探讨大鼠外耳道腺的正常组织结构及年龄组间,雌雄动物间有无差异,以期为药物评价过程中药物对耳腺影响的评价提供客观的依据。方法:将20只同龄SD大鼠随即分为A和B两组,每组均雌雄各半,分别与12周和17周龄处死,取外耳道腺进行病理学分析。观察外耳道腺在不同年龄组间、雌雄组间有无区别。结果:A组动物雌雄组间外耳道腺的组织结构无明显差异。B组动物雌雄动物间外耳道腺的组织结构无明显差异。A组雌性动物与B组雌性动物间外耳道腺的组织结构无明显差异。A组雄性动物与B组雄性动物间外耳道腺的组织结构无明显差异。结论:SD大鼠外耳道腺的组织结构在雌雄动物间及年龄在12周及17周间无明显差异,因此在进行药物对耳腺的影响的评价过程中12周龄和17周龄的受试大鼠所得到的结果应具备可比性。
ObjectiveTo study the expression of cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1(CINC-1)in rats with transfusion-related acute lung injury(TRALI),explore its possible role in the pathogenesis of TRALI. MethodsSixty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal control group with sham operation,a positive control group with ALI induced by intravenous infusion of lipopolysaccharide(5 mg/kg),and a TRALI group treated by intraperitoneal injection of LPS 2h before the transfusion of human plasma (1mL),a LPS control group treated by intraperitoneal injection of LPS 2h before the transfusion of normal saline(1mL).The reverse transcription-polymerase chain (RT-PCR)was used to detect CINC-1 mRNA.The level of CINC-1 in lung tissue homogenate was measured by ELISA.Morphological changes of the lung tissue were observed under light microscope.Myeloperoxidase (MPO)in lung homogenate and wet lung weight to dry lung weight ratio (W/D)were observed.The number of cells and the percentage of polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN)in Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)were also compared. ResultsCompared with the normal control group and the LPS control group,the expression of CINC-1 protein and CINC-1 mRNA were increased significantly in lung of the positive control group and the TRALI group(P<0.05).The number of cells and the percentage of PMN in BALF of the TRALI group [(310.63±76.67)×106/L and (33.57±11.51)%] were significantly higher than those in BALF of the normal control group [(101.36±63.83)×106/L and (9.87±3.56)%](P<0.05).Tissue water content and MPO activity in the TRALI group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (P<0.05). ConclusionExpression of CINC-1 protein and CINC-1 mRNA are increased in the rat lung with TRALI and PMN infiltration in lung tissue,which suggests CINC-1 participate in the process of the PMN and endothelial cell adhesion and may play an important role in the pathogeneses of TRALI.
ObjectiveTo study the differentially expressed proteins of recombinant human erythropoietin (r-HuEPO) in hippocampus of Pentetrazol (PTZ) -induced epileptic rats, and to provide a basis for exploring the pathogenesis of epilepsy and seeking new therapeutic targets. Methods Twelve 6~8-week-old Sprague Dawley rats that weighted 230~250 g were randomly divided into two groups: PTZ group, PTZ+ EPO group. The differential proteins of recombinant human EPO in hippocampus of pentylenetetrazole-induced epileptic rats were analyzed and identified by TMT technique based on mass spectrometry.Results 139 differentially expressed protein sites were detected in hippocampal tissues of epileptic rats, of which 55 were up-regulated and 84 down-regulated. Conclusion Recombinant human erythropoietin can inhibit many differentially expressed proteins in the hippocampus of pentaerythraze-induced eclampsia rats by upregulation of Isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP), Reduced nicotinamide purine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), Thioredoxin reductase 2 mitochondrial (TrxR), reduce nerve cell damage.
