Effects of berberine on IL-1 or tumour necrosis factor induced polymorphonuclear leucocyte－endothelium adhesion

AIM:To investigate the effect of berberine on IL-1 or tumour necrosis factor (TNF) induced polymorphonuclear leucocyte(PMN)-endothelium adhesion and adhesion molecules.METHODS:Based on the model of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC), this study adopted Rose Bengal Stain, cell ELISA, immunocyto-chemical techniques to investigate the effect of berberine on PMN-endothelium adhesion and the expression of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs).RESULTS:Berberine inhibited IL-1, TNF-induced HUVEC adhesion for PMN when pretreated HUVEC and antagonised IL-1, TNF-induced upregulation of ICAM-1 on HUVEC. Meanwhile, TNF-stimulated PMN adhesion for HUVEC and CD18 upexpression on PMN was diminished in the presence of berberine.CONCLUSION: Inhibite PMN-endothelium adhesion by downregulating the CAMs expression to inhibite PMN migration across endothelium is one of the mechanisms of antiinflammation of berberine.     

Study on the relationship between melatonin and hepatic encephalopathy

AIM:To explore the relationship between change of serum melatonin (MT) and pathogenesis of hepatic encephalopathy (HE). METHODS: Changes of MT level in sera of cirrhosic patients with HE and without HE were determined by ELISA, normal serum served as control. The change of serum MT level in exacerbation and remission in HE was also determined.RESULTS:MT level in patients with HE was higher than that withour HE (P＜0.01). MT levels of both groups were higher than that of normal group (P＜0.01). They were (308.53±59.07) ng/L, (139.85±34.59)ng/L,(77.73±28.41)ng/L, respectively. Serum MT level in exacerbation was higher than that in remission (P＜0.01), they were (301.52±66.42)ng/L and (147.81±23.31) ng/L, respectively. CONCLUSION: The elevation of MT content in sera may be closely related to the onset of hepatic coma.     

Rapamycin promotes repair of neurovascular units after ischemic stroke

Neurovascular unit （NVU） is composed of neurons, endothelial cells, pericytes, astrocytes, macrophages/microglia, smooth muscle cells, extracellular matrix, etc, and plays vital roles in maintenance of the normal brain tissue function and cellular homeostasis. Cerebral ischemia caused by stroke can harm various components of NVU. Repairing damaged NVU and maintaining its structural and functional integrity are an effective way to improve stroke treatment. Resent research has found that rapamycin not only enhances autophagy of neurons but also effectively repairs the injuried components of NVU , thereby reducing neural damage after stroke. In this paper, the mechanisms of rapamycin underlying the repair of injured NVU after ischemic stroke is reviewed to provide guidance for its application in the treatment of stroke.     

我国海岛旅游开发模式创新研究 ——以舟山群岛为例

我国海岛资源丰富,旅游开发潜力巨大.舟山群岛作为我国第一大群岛,由于缺乏科学的开发模式和管理机制,舟山群岛一些岛屿的旅游开发效果并不理想,富有吸引力的旅游岛很少.文章采用SWOT分析法,剖析了舟山群岛旅游开发的优劣势和存在的主要问题,论述了要把舟山群岛建成特色鲜明、在海内外具有较强吸引力的国际性亚热带群岛型海洋休闲旅游目的地,就必须在开发理念、开发与管理体制和模式等方面实行创新,在旅游发展空间布局上突出"一体两翼三大中心",在旅游产品开发方面重点塑造"海天佛国渔都港城-中国舟山群岛"整体旅游形象品牌,突出海洋文化和海洋休闲两个主题,精心打造海洋观光、海洋文化、海洋休闲、海鲜美食等九大旅游产品,开发好一片特色无居民海岛.

不同育肥及屠宰体重对杂交商品猪生长性能及胴体肉品质的影响研究

试验研究了不同育肥及屠宰体重对试验猪的生长性能及胴体肉品质的影响,结果显示:育肥结束体重在85~110kg阶段对试验猪的日增重和饲料报酬影响不显著;屠宰体重对试验猪的屠宰率、pH值和肌内脂肪影响显著;采用综合选择指数就不同育肥及屠宰体重对试验猪的影响进行综合评定,结果表明,试验猪体重在85~90 kg结束育肥并屠宰时育肥性能及胴体肉品质的综合选择指数最大。     

蜜蜂蜂群中未受精卵的辨认与监督

以中华蜜蜂和意大利蜜蜂为实验材料,研究了中华蜜蜂群间以及中华蜜蜂与意大利蜜蜂种间未受精卵的辨认与监督行为特性。结果表明:中华蜜蜂蜂群中工蜂对群间未受精卵的辨认与监督效果差异不显著,卵的剩余率都在93%以上;但在中华蜜蜂蜂群中,工蜂在2 h之内把意大利蜜蜂未受精卵全部清理,而保留了89%以上的中华蜜蜂未受精卵;在意大利蜜蜂蜂群中,工蜂会在4 h之内把中华蜜蜂未受精卵全部清理,但保留了94%的意大利蜜蜂未受精卵。     

不同基因型菜心-土壤系统中邻苯二甲酸二(2-乙基己基)酯的分布特征研究

在邻苯二甲酸二（2-乙基己基）酯（DEHP）不同污染程度的水稻土上盆栽8种不同基因型菜心,应用GC／MS技术,研究DEHP在不同基因型菜心-土壤系统中的累积效应和分布规律。结果表明,不同基因型菜心茎叶和根系对DEHP的吸收累积存在明显差异,其中新选45天油菜心和油青60天菜心茎叶中DEHP的含量相对较高,特青60天菜心和新选油青四九菜心茎叶中DEHP的含量相对较低;亚蔬全年油绿甜菜心、油青60天菜心和四九-19菜心根系中DEHP的含量相对较高。新种油青四九-31菜心和新选油青四九菜心、特青60天菜心根系中DEHP的含量相对较低。各基因型菜心根系中DEHP的含量均高于其茎叶,其含量高低关系较复杂,部分基因型菜心茎叶中DEHP的含量与叶面积大小存在一定的正相关关系,且与污染程度有关。盆栽后新选油青四九菜心和特青60天菜心土壤中DEHP的残留量较高,盆栽佰顺811菜心、亚蔬全年油绿甜菜心、油青60天菜心和新选45天油菜心土壤中DEHP的残留量较低。总体上,油青60天菜心茎叶和根系中DEHP的含量均较高,而土壤中DEHP的残留量较低;新选油青四九菜心茎叶和根系中DEHP的含量均较低。土壤中DEHP的残留量却较高。
