Objective To study the effects of adenosine 2A receptor activation on activation, proliferation, and toxicity of T lymphocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in vitro. Methods A model of activated T cells was established by stimulating the cells with PHA. Those T cells were treated with different concentrations of adenosine 2A receptors agonist (0.01 μmol/L, 0.1 μmol/L, 1 μmol/L, and 10 μmol/L CGS21680). The expressions of CD69, CD25 and proliferation of T cells were measured by fluorescent antibody stain and flow cytometry. ELISA method was used to detect IL-2 and INF-γ levels. Results All concentrations of CGS21680 significantly inhibited the expressions of CD25 and CD69 on PHA-stimulated T cells surface and proliferation of T cells （Plt;0.05， Plt;0.01）. IL-2 and INF-γ secreted by T cells were significantly suppressed, too （Plt;0.01）. Conclusion Activation of adenosine 2A receptor can effectively inhibit the activation, proliferation, and toxicity of T cells in vitro.
Objective To evaluate the inhibiting effect of adenosine on rat retinal ganglion cells (RGC) death induced by P2X7 and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. Methods (1) Long-Evan neonatal rats were back labeled with aminostilbamidine to identify RGC. The viability of RGC affected by P2X7 excitomotor BzATP (50 mu;mol/L), glutamate receptor excitomotor NMDA (100 mu;mol/L) and adenosine (300 mu;mol/L) was detected. (2) RGC from the retinae of unlabeled neonatal rats were cultured in vitro. After labeled with Fura-2 methyl acetate, an intracellular calcium indicator, the effect of BzATP, NMDA and adenosine on intracellular Ca2+ level was detected byCa2+ imaging system. Results Both BzATP (50 mu;mol/L) and NMDA(100 mu;mol/L) could kill about 30% of the RGC. Cell death was prevented by adenosine (300 mu;mol/L) with the cell viability increased from (68.9plusmn;2.3)% and (69.9plusmn;3.2)% to (91.2plusmn;3.5)% (P＜0.001) and (102.1plusmn;3.9)% (P＜0.001), respectively. BzATP (50 mu;mol/L) led to a large, sustained increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration to (1183plusmn;109) nmol/L. After the adenosine intervened, Ca2+ concentration increased slightly to (314plusmn;64) nmol/L (P＜0.001). Conclusion Adenosine may prevent RGC death and increase of intracellular Ca2+ concentration from P2X7and NMDA receptor stimulation. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2007, 23: 133-136)
目的 探讨全凭静脉麻醉中腺苷对丙泊酚用量的影响。 方法 2011年1月－12月期间59例行择期手术的患者全凭静脉麻醉，随机分为腺苷静脉持续输注组（A组）和对照组（B组），A组患者麻醉诱导后持续输注腺苷70 μg/（kg·min），直至术毕。B组麻醉后按常规处理。比较两组患者麻醉时间、苏醒时间、瑞芬太尼用量，麻醉过程中平均动脉压（MAP）、心率，以及麻醉过程中丙泊酚的用量。同时记录使用腺苷过程中的不良反应。 结果 两组患者麻醉时间、苏醒时间、瑞芬太尼用量比较均无明显差异，无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。两组患者麻醉过程中MAP、心率比较亦无明显差异，无统计学意义（P＞0.05）。两组患者麻醉过程中丙泊酚平均用量比较，A组明显低于C组，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05），且不良反应发生率低。 结论 腺苷能明显降低全凭静脉麻醉中丙泊酚的使用剂量。
The Dacron grafts seeded with autologous venous fragments were implanted into IVC of 13 canines as seeded group and the control grafts (8 cases), which were only preclotted with fresh blood. The amounts of cAMP and cGMP in serum and within platelet were measured. All of the specimens explanted at exsaguination were observed morphologically. The results shown that the total patency rate were 61.5% in seeded group, but 25.0% in control one and new endothelial lining formed at two weeks after implantation of the seeded grafts. The amounts of cAMP in serum and within platelet were higher in seeded group, but the amounts of cGMP were lower in serum and within platelet. These were in accordance with the results that the endothelialization of the grafts were complete in seeded group but not complete in control one. The results indicate that seeding Dacron with autologous venous fragment makes new endothelium formed at two weeks after implantation, increases the amounts of cAMP in serum and within platelet, but reduces the amounts of cGMP and thus improves graft patency rate.
Tweenty-one SD rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes were investigated for the influence of magnesium in cAMP level in the retina of the diabetic rats. The diabetic rats were divided into 3 groups: group 1, drinking tap hehwater; group 2, drinking 0.5% MgSO4 solution and group 3, receiving intramuscular MgSO4(0.1g/kg) once a month. In addition, group 4, a controlgroup of normal nondiabetic rats fed with tap water. In aperiod of 5 months examination, the growth and health conditions of diabetic rats were found to be nearly normal in group 2, 3 and 4, manifested by gaining weight and soft, smooth hairs on the skin, in contrast with loss in weight, rough hairs and even dying of infection in 2 of the diabetic rats in group 1. furthermore, the level of cAMP content in retina was found significantly higher in the diabetic rats taking Mg++ in spite of the route of administration(group 2, 3), as well as in the control group(group 4) than that of the diabetic rats which were fed with tap water. These results demonstrated that Mg++ might play an important role in improving the metabolism of diabetic rats including the retinal tissue by influencing the level of cAMP content, which is necessary in nuclear acid metabolism, protein synthesis, proliferation and differentiation, and other intracellular metabolic processes. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1992,8:141-143）
ObjectiveTo systematically review the clinical efficacy and effects on pregnancy outcomes of S-adenosy-L-methionine combined with ursodesoxycholic acid in the treatment of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy. MethodsDatabases such as PubMed, The Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data were searched for the studies about the clinical efficacy and effects on pregnancy outcomes of S-adenosy-L-methionine combined with ursodesoxycholic acid in the treatment of intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy up to December 31st, 2013. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated methodological quality. Then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.0.24 software. ResultsA total of 11 RCTs involving 776 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that, combined medication reduced blood biochemical indexes inlcuding ALT (MD=3.63, 95%CI 0.63 to 6.64, P=0.02), TB (MD=3.70, 95%CI 1.45 to 5.96, P=0.001), and AST (MD=7.61, 95%CI 2.47 to 12.75, P=0.004). Combined therapy significantly decreased the rates of amniotic fluid contamination (OR=0.29, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.45, P=0.000 01), cesarean section (OR=0.53, 95%CI 0.36 to 0.79, P=0.002), postpartum hemorrhage (OR=0.32, 95%CI 0.12 to 0.90, P=0.03), preterm birth (OR=0.36, 95%CI 0.24 to 0.55, P < 0.000 01), fetal distress (OR=0.33, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.58, P=0.000 1) and neonates asphyxia (OR=0.30, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.47, P < 0.000 01). Combined therapy was also beneficial to improving pruritus symptoms (MD=0.20, 95%CI 0.08 to 0.31, P=0.000 08) and benefiting fetus growth (MD=0.45, 95%CI 0.23 to 0.66, P < 0.000 1). ConclusionThe combination of S-adenosy-L-methionine and ursodesoxycholic acid is superior to ursodesoxycholic acid alone in improving clinical symptoms and pregnant outcomes of patients with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of endogenous photodynamic therapy (PDT) on intracellular cAMP and cGMP concentrations of human colon carcinoma cell lines SW480. MethodsSW480 cells were divided into control group, light group, δaminolevulinic acid （ALA） group (ALA group) and endogenous PDT group (ALAPDT group). Intracellular cAMP and cGMP concentrations of each group were detected by radioimmunoassay at 30, 60, 90 and 120 min after irradiation. ResultsThere was a significant increase in intracellular cAMP concentration of ALAPDT group at 30 min after irradiation (P＜0.001) and sequent decrease, but intracellular cAMP concentrations of ALAPDT group at 60, 90 and 120 min after irradiation had no statistical difference than the other groups (Pgt;0.05). Intracellular cGMP concentration of different time point of each group was not significantly different. ConclusionThese results indicate that the cytoprotection of SW480 cell are produced by an instantaneous increase in the intracellular cAMP concentration while endogenous PDT is killing SW480 cell.
