Résumé
AIM: To study the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) on the transcriptional activity of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells. METHODS: Rat pulmonary micro-vascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) were cultured by lung tissue block pasted methods, and identified immunocytochemically using Ⅷ factor-related antigen. The cells were treated with different doses TNF-α (prepared in serum-free medium) for 4 h. Subcellular localization and levels of Nrf2 in PMVECs were observed with immunocytochemical methods. Nuclear extract were obtained to assayed transcriptional activity of Nrf2 with EMSA. Total RNA were isolated to assay the mRNA expression of Nrf2 by RT-PCR. RESULTS: The protein level of Nrf2 in the nuclei and transcriptional activity increased dose-dependently in PMVECs after treated with TNF-α at concentrations of 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 μg/L. However, the protein level of Nrf2 in nuclei and transcriptional activity decreased dose-dependently in PMVECs after treated with TNF-α at concentrations of 20 or 40 μg/L. No different mRNA expression of Nrf2 in PMVECs treated with TNF-α at all concentration above was observed. CONCLUSION: Transcriptional activity of Nrf2 increases in PMVECs treated with low or moderate doses of TNF-α and decreases in PMVECs treated with high doses of TNF-α.

Objective To investigate the effects of isoflurane on receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (R(A)GE) expression in the hippocampus in rats. Methods Forty-five male 4-month-old and 45 male 24-month-old rats were used in this study. The animals were divided into 2 age groups ( n = 45 each): the aged group (group O) and the adult group (group A). Each group was further divided into 3 subgroups ( n = 15 each):Ⅰ control subgroup (group OC,AC) inhaled 30% O2 in air; 1 single isoflurane inhalation subgroup (group OS,AS) inhaled 1.5 % isoflurane for 2 h and Ⅲ repeated isoflurane inhalation subgroup (group OR, AR) inhaled 1.5 % isoflurane 2 h per day for 3 days. One day after isoflurane inhalation, learning and memory function was assessed using Morris water maze test in 8 animals in each subgroup. The rest of each subgroup were killed and their hippocampi were immediately isolataed for detection of RAGE mRNA and protein expression by RT-PCR and immuno-histochemistry. Results The cognitive function was impaired after signle or repeataed isoflurane anesthesia as compared with control animals in both aged and adult groups. The expression of RACE mRNA and protein in hippocampus was significantly increased after either single or repeated isoflurane anesthesia in aged group but only after repeated isoflurane anesthesia in adult gpoup. There was no significant difference in RAGE mRNA and protein expression in the hippocampus between control and single isoflurane inhalation animals in adult group. Conclusion Isoflurane can reduce learning and memory function in both aged and adult rats by increasing RAGE expression in hippocampus especially in aged rats.

Objective To explore the effect of isofluranee on receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) expression of hippocampus and learning and memory function in rats. Methods 24-month Sprague-Dawley male rats (n=45) and 4-month Sprague-Dawley male rats (n=45) were randomly divided into six groups with 15 rats each group. Group C1 (aged control group),group C2(adult control group) breath 30% oxygen and air mixed gas; Group S1(single inhalation of isoflurane aged group),Group S2(single inhalation of isoflurane adult group)were anesthetized with 1.5% isoflurane,breath 30% oxygen and air mixed gas for 2h;Group R1(Repeated inhalation of isoflurane aged group), group R2(Repeated inhalation of isoflurane adult group) were anesthetized with 1.5% isoflurane,breath 30% oxygen and air mixed gas 2h a day for three days. Eight rats randomly selected from each group were killed and their hippocampus were immediately isolated for detection of RAGE expression by immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR after accomplished treatment 24h. The remained rats' learning and memory function were assessed using Morris water-maze test. Results The results of Morris water-maze test showed that the times of acerossing the original platform and the time consumption of staying the original platform quadrant was shorter in group S1 and group R1,but the escape latency was longer than group C1(escape latency C1 (9.42± 2.63)s,S1(13.20±3.85)s,R1(17.20±3.44)s, F=12.773, P<0.05). In the group R2,the escape latency was longer but the times of accrossing the original platform and the time consumption of staying the original plat-form quadrant was shorter than group C2 (times of accrossing the original platform C1(7.30±2.40), S1(3.90± 2.42),R1(3.44±2.40), F=7.448, P<0.01).To contrast with the group C2,there were no significant differ-enees in spatial probe test in the group S2(P>0.05). The levels of mRNA and protein of RAGE in hippocampus was significantly higher in group S1 and group R1 than group C1(RAGE mRNA expression C1(0.11±0.02),S1 (0.56±0.09), R1(0.73±0.14), F=179.447, P<0.01). To contrast with the group C2, there were no differ-ences found in the levels of mRNA and protein of RAGE in group S1(P>0.05), but it was higher in the group R2 (RAGE mRNA express C2(0.22±0.04), R2 (0.41±0.08), F=40. 209, P < 0. 01). Conclusion Isoflurane can reduce learning and memory function in both aged and adult rats, but aged rats are particularly significant im-pacted. This effect may be induced by the increase of RAGE expression in hippocampas.

BACKGROUND: Not only can auditory evoked potential (AEP) reflect electric activities of cerebral cortex and subcortex, but also have dose-effect relationship with many sorts of anesthesia agents; it is a relatively good index for monitoring anesthesia depth at present.OBJECTIVE: To analyze target controlled infusion propofol by auditory evoked potentials index during anaesthesia.DESIGN: Patients with operations were taken as objects in the randomized controlled trial.SETTING: Department of Anesthesia of Southwest Hospital of the Third Military Medical UniversityPARTICIPANTS: A total of 16 patients, with selective simply laparoscopic cholecystectomy, admitted to Department of Anesthesia of Southwest Hospital from October to November 2003, were selected and randomly divided into normal control group and auditory evoked potential index monitoring group with 8 in each group. The baseline information of the patients, such as gender, age, weight and operating time etc., was similar between the two groups (P > 0.05).METHODS: Same anesthesia induction method was conducted on the patients in both groups; anesthesia was maintained with propofol (10 g/L) according to ALARIS P6003 pump calculation in the two groups; age, weight and target concentration of propofol (4 mg/L) was regulated according to clinical experience, while, in auditory evoked potential monitoring group,the concentration value of propofol in effective site was regulated by maintaining auditory evoked potential index between 15 and 30. Non-invasive blood pressure, heart rate and AAI were monitored at the moment of reposing for 10 minutes after entering operating room (T0), eyelash reflex disappearing after anaesthesia induction (T1), trachea intubation (T2), 3 minutes after intubation (T3), boring abdomenal holes (T4), 30 minutes after aeroperitonia steady (T5), observer's assessment of alertness and sedation (OAA/S) ≥4 at the end of operation (T6).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Comparison of dosages of anaesthetia agents between the two groups. ② Changes of hemodynamics and auditory evoked potential index at each phase point. RESULTS: According to intention to treat analysis, all the 16 patients entered results analysis. ①Comparison of dosages of anesthesia agents between the patients in each two: The actual dosage of propofol in auditory evoked potential monitoring group was significantly lower than that in normal control group [(247.25±37.11), (337.38±36.72) mg, P < 0.05], while the dosages of fentanyl and vecuronium bromide were no differences between two groups (P > 0.05). ② Changes of hemodynamics and auditory eyoked potential index at each phase points of the two groups: Changes of hemodynamics at each phase points were similar between the two groups (P > 0.05). Compared with T0 phase, there was no significant difference in auditory evoked potential index between the two groups in T1, T2 and T3 phases (P > 0.05), however, in T4 and T5 phases, auditory evoked potential index in auditory evoked potential monitoring group was remarkably higher than that in normal control group (28.50±6.19, 21.25±4.06; 28.00±5.66,20.75±3.41; P < 0.05). All patients had no awareness during the operation. CONCLUSION: Auditory evoked potential index is a new indicator for monitoring anesthesia depth, which can be helpful to regulate and control depth of anesthesia so as to avoid awareness and recall during general anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of aprotinin blood anesthesia in the radical excision of esophageal carcinoma. Methods A total of 90 patients with esophageal carcinoma undergoing radical excision were divided into two groups according to using aprotinin or not. Patients in experiment group (group A, 40 patients) were injected with 1 112 EPU aprotinin followed by constant pumped infusion of 278 EPU/h until 2 h after operation. Patients in the control group (group B, 50 patients) were treated with constant pumped infusion of 0.9% saline. The venous blood was collected for blood routine examination, thromboelastography(TEG) and normal coagulable function test at the following time points: before induction, at 2 h and 4 h after the beginning of operation, at the end of operation and at 12 h after operation. The changes of TEG and normal coagulable state were monitored during the whole surgical process. The intraoperative volume of hemorrhage, perioperative transfusion rate and average volume of transfusion in the two groups were compared. Results The preoperative coagulable state in experiment group was kept relatively stable during the operation. Volume of intraoperative hemorrhage, perioperative transfusion rate and average volume of blood transfusion in experiment group were significantly lower than those in the control group. Conclusion Aprotinin blood anesthesia can stabilize the coagulable state, reduce the volumes and rates of hemorrhage and transfusion, and hence can find wide application in the radical excision of esophageal carcinoma.

Objective To clarify the effective location of propofol in central nervous system (CNS). Methods Forty-two Wistar rats were ramdomized into control group,50 mg/kg propofol,100 mg/kg propofol,150 mg/kg propofol,tail shearing,propofol followed by tail shearing (n=7 in each group). The NOS expressions in the CNS were recorded by NADPH-d histochemistry after anesthesia by intraperitoneal injection of propofol. Results Rather widely stained NOS positive neurons were observed in the control group. In propofol groups,the NOS expressions were decreased significantly as compared with the control group,mainly located in ACB,LS,Pe,VLG,Den,SO,SCh,AVPO,Sol,SuM,BL,PV,LHb and Icj,showing a negative dose-effect relation with propofol. Conclusion Propofol has the determined sites of action in CNS and the decrease of NO synthesis by the inhibition of NOS may play a role in propofol-induced general anesthesia.
