The mechanisms of pathophysiological vasodilation or vascular hyporesponse

In some pathophysiological processes such as severe shock, the patients and animal experimental models fail to respond to pressor medicine. Vascular hyporesponse or vasodilation is one of the key problems in treatment of these patents. Although considerable progress had been made in recent years, the precise mechanisms of vascular contractile hyporeactivity have not been completely elucidated. A number of studies indicate that vascular hyporesponse or vasodilation correlate with many factors. In this review, the possible mechanisms about vascular hyporesponse or vasodilation during shock and other pathphysiolgoical processes were discussed.     

Effects of FK506 on anti-glomerular basement membrane nephritis in rats

AIM:To investigate the effects of FK506 on anti-glomerular basement membrane(GBM) nephritis in rats. METHODS: Anti-GBM nephritis model was elaborated by rabbit anti-rat GBM antibody injection in SD rats in this study. The rats were divided into three groups: FK506 treated group(0.5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1, sc), untreated nephritis control group and normal control group. FK506 was administered daily six hours after injection of anti-GBM IgG. All the rats were observed urinary protein at the 4th day, the 14th day and the 21st day. At the same time, the kidney specimens were collected, and T cell transforming function was also monitored.RESULTS:Rats injected with rabbit anti-GBM Ab developed heavy proteinuria by 4 days, and serum creatinine and serum urea appeared which kept on the rising. Glmerular hypercellularity, crescents, and protein casts were observed in nephritic rats. By electron microscopy, the thickening of GBM and loss of foot processes were seen. T cell transforming function was higher than normal. But, all pathological changes obviously turned for the better in FK506 treated group. CONCLUSION:FK506 could inhibit the progression of rat anti-GBM nephritis.

Meiotic competence of mouse oocytes reconstructed by replacing the germinal vesicle with a male pronucleus and somatic nucleus

The present study examines the contribution of the nucleus to meiotic competence in mouse oocytes that were reconstructed using nuclear transfer. Three types of reconstructed oocytes were produced: MP‐GV, by transplanting the male pronucleus (MP) into germinal vesicle (GV) stage oocytes; 3T3‐GV, by transplanting the nucleus of a National Institute of Health (NIH) 3T3 cell into a GV stage oocyte; and 3T3‐MII, by transplanting the nucleus of an NIH 3T3 cell into a metaphase II (MII) stage oocyte. The fusion rates differed, but not significantly, in the MP‐GV, 3T3‐GV, and 3T3‐MII groups (77, 63, 56%, respectively). Then, meiotic competence was compared in MP‐GV, 3T3‐GV and non‐manipulated GV stage oocytes as a control. Nuclear envelope breakdown occurred in all the reconstructed oocytes, as well as the control ones. The percentage of first polar body extrusion differed between the MP‐GV (100%), 3T3‐GV (72%), and control (67%) groups. DNA staining with Hoechst 33342 revealed that in the MP‐GV‐group oocytes that had reached MII stage, the chromosomes were condensed and aligned in a regular array similar to the normal metaphase plate. By contrast, in 3T3‐GV group oocytes, the condensed chromosomes were irregularly scattered in the cytoplasm. These results suggest that the donor nucleus affects meiotic competence in reconstructed oocytes.

过氧化氢提高燕麦幼苗耐碱性的活性氧代谢和渗透调节

为探明过氧化氢(H₂O₂)提高燕麦耐碱性的作用,以‘定莜6号’幼苗为材料,采用珍珠岩栽培方法,在幼苗三叶一心期根部浇灌75 mmol·L^-1 NaHCO₃或添加二甲基硫脲(DMTU,H₂O₂淬灭剂)或抗坏血酸(ASA,H₂O₂清除剂)模拟碱胁迫,通过叶面喷施0.01 mmol·L^-1 H₂O₂来观测H₂O₂对碱胁迫下幼苗生长、活性氧代谢和渗透溶质积累的影响。结果表明:喷施H₂O₂ 能够缓解NaHCO₃胁迫对燕麦幼苗生长的抑制,降低幼苗叶片O2·-、H₂O₂和丙二醛含量,提高超氧化物歧化酶、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶等抗氧化酶活性和非酶抗氧化剂抗坏血酸、谷胱甘肽含量;使过氧化氢酶、过氧化物酶活性及渗透溶质可溶性糖、游离氨基酸和脯氨酸含量显著降低,有机酸和叶绿素含量明显提高,而可溶性蛋白质含量则变化不大;添加DMTU和ASA后有效逆转了喷施H₂O₂对NaHCO₃胁迫燕麦生长受抑和生理响应的调节。采用主成分和隶属函数分析显示,喷施H₂O₂显著提高了NaHCO₃胁迫下燕麦幼苗的综合评价值,添加DMTU和ASA完全或部分逆转了H₂O₂的作用。因此,外源H₂O₂是通过调控活性氧代谢和渗透调节来缓解碱胁迫导致的氧化伤害和生长抑制,从而增强燕麦幼苗的耐碱性。
