To investigate the effect of sinomenine on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in RAW264.7 macrophages and the underlying mechanisms. Methods: The mouse RAW264.7 macrophages were treated with sinomenine and/or LPS with or without heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) inhibitor Znpp. Real-time PCR, ELISA, immunofluenscence, and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA expression of TNF-α and IL-6, the release of TNF-α and IL-6, the protein expression of HO-1 and autophagy, respectively. Results: Compared with the control group, the mRNA expression and release of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-6 were increased, the green fluorescence of autophagy-related protein LC3 was accumulated and the protein expression of HO-1 was increased in RAW264.7 cells after LPS treatment (P<0.05). Compared with the LPS group, sinomenine treatment could reduce the mRNA expression and release of TNF-α and IL-6, accompanied by increasess in green fluorescence aggregation of LC3 and HO-1 production (P<0.05). HO-1 inhibitor Znpp could weaken the ability of sinomenine through suppressing TNF-α and IL-6 expression and decreasing the aggregation of LC3 green fluorescence (P<0.05). Conclusion: Sinomenine could alleviate LPS-induced inflammation in RAW264.7 macrophages, which might be related to HO-1 mediated autophagy. This study provides an experimental and theoretical basis for the clinical application of sinomenine in prevention and treatment of inflammation.

Objective:To investigate roles of autophagy in ameliorating sepsis-induced acute lung injury by allicinin in mice.Methods:A total of 152 male Balb/c mice (8-week old) were randomly divided into a sham group,a septic model group,an allicin treatment group,and an autophagy inhibition group.Septic mouse model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).Mice in the allicin treatment group were given allicin (30 mg/kg,intra-peritoneal injection) at 6 and 12 h,while those in the autophagy inhibition group were given autophagy inhibitor 3-MA (15 mg/kg,intra-peritoneal injection) at half an hour after allicin administration.Mice in the model and sham group were administered with the same amount of saline.Twenty mice in each group were randomly chosen to observe the 7 d survival rate.The other 12 mice were killed at 24 h,and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) (n=6) and lung tissues (n=6) were collected.ELISA was used to detect the tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the BALF.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was preformed to show the morphological changes in the lung tissues.Malondialdehyde (MDA) content and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the lung tissues were examined.The expression of LC3B and Beclin-1 was determined by immunohistochemical analysis.Results:Compared with the sham group,the 7 d survival rate and lung SOD activity were decreased in the CLP group (P<0.05);the lung morphological damage score,the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the BALF,MDA content in the lung,and expression of LC3B and Beclin-1 were increased greatly in the CLP group (P<0.05).Compared with the CLP group,the 7 d survival rate,lung SOD activity and the expressions of LC3B and Beclin-1 were increased significantly in the allicin treatment group (P<0.05);the lung morphological damage scores,the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the BALF and MDA content in the lung were decreased obviously in the allicin treatment group (P<0.05).Compared with the allicin treatment group,the 7 d survival rate,lung SOD activity,and the expressions of LC3B and Beclin-1 were decreased in the 3-MA group (P<0.05);the lung morphological damage scores,the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the BALF,and MDA content in the lung were increased significantly in the 3-MA group (P<0.05).Conclusion:Allicin may ameliorate sepsis-induced acute lung injury in mice by enhancing the level of autophagy.

To evaluate the safety and efficiency of citrate anticoagulant-based continuous blood purification in patients at high risk of bleeding. Methods: One hundred and fifty-two patients at high risk of bleeding were divided into local citrate group (group A, n=68) and heparin group (group B, n=84). Clotting function, change of pH, ionized sodium, bicarbonate ion, ionized calcium, activated clotting time (ACT) and complications were monitored before and during treatment. Results: Compared to the group A, the incidence of clotting in filter and chamber, the degree of bleeding or fresh bleeding were significantly reduced in the group B (P0.05). The pH value, the levels of ionized sodium, bicarbonate ion and ionized calcium during the treatment were maintained in normal range in both group A and group B. Conclusion: Local citrate-based continuous blood purification can achieve effective anticoagulation and decrease the incidence of bleeding. It is an ideal choice for patients at high risk of bleeding.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effects of early short time venous-venous hemofiltration(SVVH) on severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) with acute lung injury(ALI).Methods Twenty-there patients with SAP and ALI were treated by routine project,and among them twelve patients accepted SVVH therapy.During the therapy,life sign、PaO2/FiO2 and APACHEII score were registered.Results Compared with control group,the clinical representation and organ function of SVVH group meliorated. PaO2/FiO2 were raised, APACHEII score and death risk were declined.Conclusions The early short time venous-venous hemofiltration(SVVH) on severe acute pancreatitis(SAP) with acute lung injury(ALI) could improve clinical symptom ,protect the organ dysfunction and decline the death risk.

<p><b>AIM</b>To investigate the influence of living high-training low for 4 weeks on serum CK, LDH and ALT of rowing athletes.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>20 rowing athletes were divided into two groups: the one (ten subjects) spent 8-10 h per night in a tabernacle which was simulated altitude of 2 500 m in normobaric hypoxia (HiLo group), the another (ten subjects) slept at near sea level (control group). During the periods of test, all athletes were trained at the same relative or at the same intensity of work in normoxia state. The serum CK, LDH and ALT were measured at before, during 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 2 weeks after "living high and training low".</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Baseline serum values for CK, LDH and ALT were not different between two groups (P > 0.05). The levels of CK, LDH of HiLo group were significantly increased (P < 0.05) than those of control group at 3 rd week, however, it was contrary at 5th and 7th week. After exercise of 2 km and 5 km, the values of LDH and CK at a moment notice and 30min postexercise test in HiLo group were significant lower than those in control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>These results indicate that living high-training low may reduce the muscle damage associated with endurance exercise.</p>
