Objective To explore the effect of IL-10 on the inhibition of early proinflammatory cytokine release in intraabdominal infection and early sepsis. Methods Forty eight SD rats were randomized into 4 groups, 12 in each group, ①sham operation group, ②control group, ③prophylactic group, ④therapeutic group. Group 1 underwent laparotomy only, group 2 received laparotomy and cecal ligation plus punctures (CLP) with saline injected once every 3 hrs, group 3 underwent CLP and IL-10 injection intraperitoneally 1 hr before surgery and once every 3 hrs following operation, group 4 received CLP and IL-10 injection once every 3 hrs after operation. At 3 and 9 hr points, rats were sacrificed and blood samples were taken for measurement of inflammatory cytokines. Results Almost no inflammatory cytokines were detected in sham group, CLP produced a significant rise in serum TNF-α (tumor necrosis α), IL-1, IL-6 (interleukin 1,6) in control group, IL-10 reduced the rise of inflammatory cytokines significantly. Conclusion IL-10 could inhibit the early inflammatory cytokine release in rat model of sepsis. Suggesting it may attenuate the severity of inflammation.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the effect of compound Danshen dripping pills combined with Western medicine on inflammatory factors and cardiac function after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with acute myocardial infarction.MethodsDatabases including CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase and The Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials of compound Danshen dripping pills combined with Western medicine in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction after PCI. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the databases to June 11th, 2020. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk bias of included studies. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis.ResultsA total of 16 studies were included, involving 2 069 patients. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the combination of compound Danshen dripping pills could increase the left ventricular ejection fraction (MD =−4.74, 95%CI 4.07 to 5.42, P<0.01), decrease the B-type natriuretic peptide (SMD=−3.81, 95%CI −5.06 to −2.57, P<0.01), the level of interleukin-6 (SMD=−3.20, 95%CI −4.54 to −1.86, P<0.01) and level of tumor necrosis factor-a (SMD=−4.96, 95%CI −7.03 to −2.89, P<0.01).ConclusionsCurrent evidence suggests that the combination of compound Danshen dropping pills has potential benefits in inhibiting inflammation and improving cardiac function after PCI. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
Myocardial remodeling is a common pathological physiology change for a variety of heart diseases under stimulation such as stress or ischemia. The engine body will release a lot of cytokines to promote the change of myocardial structure and ultimately lead to heart failure. Myocardial remodeling includes myocardial cells remodeling and the extracellular matrix remodeling. In recent years, we find that the function of adipose tissue is not only about energy storage, buffering to protect, supporting and filling, but also has a powerful function of secretion. Adipose tissue can secrete various adipocytokines, such as leptin, adiponectin, visfatin, omentin, angiotensin Ⅱ, and so on. Current studies have shown that adipocytokines and myocardial remodeling are intimated. And this article will summarize the function of adipocytokines on myocardial remodeling.

Methods Eight pregnant goats with two fetal in each goat were included. With the same anesthesia condition, one of the twin fetus was chose to perform the intrauterine cardiac intervention surgery. The fetal heart beating rate was monitored, and blood samples of the fetus were taken to do the blood gas analysis and to detect the concentration of inflammatory cytokines (IL1, IL6, IL8, and TNFα). Results Two of the eight fetal lambs which was died in the operation because of pericardial tapenade. In the other six survived fetus, the PH was lower than after the surgery, and the concentrations of lactic acid, IL1, IL6, and IL8 are higher than after the surgery. There was no significant difference of PCO2,PO2 and TNFα between before and after the surgery. Conclusion The intrauterine cardiac intervention surgery can make the PH of fetal plasma lower and the concentrations of lactic acid and IL1, IL6, IL8 higher.
Objective To explore the clinical effect of hemoperfusion (HP) in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on postoperative inflammation in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (AAD). MethodsAdult patients with AAD who planned to undergo total aortic arch replacement from July 2020 to November 2021 were continuously enrolled in our heart center. Patients were randomly divided into a HP group and a control (C) group. The HP group was treated with disposable HP device (Model: HA380, Zhuhai Jafron Biomedical, China) in CPB during the operation. ResultsFinally, 70 patients were included with 59 males and 11 females at an age range of 21-67 years. There were 35 patients in both groups. In this study, 3 patients died within 3 days after surgery, 2 in the HP group and 1 in the C group, and the remaining 67 patients survived to the follow-up end point (30 days after surgery). There was no statistical difference in preoperative baseline data, operative method, CPB time, block time, or other intraoperative data between the two groups. Blood product dosage, intubation time, hospital stays, and hospitalization expenses were similar between the two groups. Intraoperative hemoglobin (82.70±2.31 g/L vs. 82.50±1.75 g/L, P=0.954] and platelet concentration [(77.87±7.99)×109/L vs. (89.17±9.99)×109/L, P=0.384] were not statistically different between the HP group and C group. In the HP group, postoperative (ICU-12 h) interleukin-6 (IL-6) [338.14 (128.00, 450.70) pg/mL vs. 435.75 (180.50, 537.00) pg/mL, P=0.373], IL-8 [35.04 (18.02, 40.35) pg/mL vs. 43.50 (17.70, 59.95) pg/mL, P=0.383], and IL-10 [21.19 (6.46, 23.50) pg/mL vs. 43.41 (6.34, 50.80) pg/mL, P=0.537] were slightly lower than those in the C group, and the difference was not statistically different. The incidences of pulmonary infection (0.00% vs. 11.76%, P=0.042) and liver injury (2.94% vs. 20.58%, P=0.027) in the HP group were significantly lower than those in the C group, and the incidence of other postoperative complications, such as arrhythmia, nervous system complications and urinary system complications, showed no statistical difference between the two groups. Conclusion HP therapy in CPB is safe, but its effect on reducing postoperative inflammatory factors, postoperative inflammatory reactions and postoperative complications in the patients with AAD is limited, and it may be of application value to some high-risk patients with lung and liver injury.
Abstract： Objective To investigate the acute cardioprotective effect of 17b-estradiol (17b-E2) against severe myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rabbits and the mechanism of the effect. Methods We established the model of myocardial I/R in vivo by occluding the left anterior descending coronary artery of the rabbits (who underwent coronary occlusion for 40 minutes followed by 3 hours of reperfusion). Twentyfour New Zealand white male rabbits were randomly divided into two groups with 12 in each group. Before coronary occlusion, 1 ml of ethanol or 17b-E2 at 10 μg/kg was administered intravenously to the rabbits in the control group and the experimental group respectively. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) at the following time points: before occlusion, 40 minutes after occlusion, 1 hour, 2 hours and 3 hours after reperfusion. Activation of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase(MAPK) was determined by Western blotting analysis, and apoptosis of cardiocytes was identified by terminal deoxynucleotidlyl transferase mediated deoxyuridinebiotin dUTP Nick End Labeline (TdT)mediated dNTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. Results During myocardial ischemia, TNF-α decreased significantly in the experimental group compared with the control group (F=0.007,P=0.001), while there was no difference in IL-6 between the two groups (F=0.616,P=0.095). During the process of reperfusion, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (Plt;0.01). Besides, the activation of p38 MAPK and apoptotic index for the experimental group were also lower (45.07%±2.73% vs. 61.25%±2.41%, t＝－15.398, P=0.000; 11.21%±3.85% vs. 22.02%±4.49%, t＝－6.332, P=0.000). Conclusion The cardioprotective effect of 17b-E2 against myocardial I/R may be attributed to its antiinflammatory and antiapoptotic properties, which is probably associated with the inhibition of 17bE2 on p38MAPK activity.
Objective To study the effect of nontypeable Hemophilus influenzae(NTHi) strain ATCC49247 on proinflammatory cytokines expression of human A549 lung epithelial cell line. Methods Confluent A549 cells were co-incubated with NTHi, NTHi+Erythromycin(10 mg/L), NTHi+Gentamicin(100 mg/L), and NTHi+Dexamethasone(100 μmol/L),and nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB) inhibitor primed cells were co-incubated with NTHi for 24 h. Then levels of interleukin-8（IL-8） and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in the supernatant was assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) and the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) in cells was detected by immunohistochemistry staining. Results A549 cells were transformed and died after co-intubated with NTHi for 24 h. NTHi induced A549 cells to release significantly greater amounts of IL-8, which was inhibited by NF-κB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate（PDTC）. Incubating of A549 cells with NTHi significantly induced release of IL-8 and the expression of ICAM-1, which was blocked by erythromycin and dexamethasone and not by gentamicin. TNF-α was not detected in all circumstances. Conclusions NTHi can increase significantly the release and expression of proinflammatory cytokines through NF-κB pathway. Antibacterial drug erythromycin also has anti-inflammatory effect.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore the mechanisms of anabolism intensified by recombination human growth hormone (GH) on the basis of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) during postoperative in gastrointestinal carcinoma patients. MethodsNinety-four gastrointestinal carcinoma patients undergone operation were randomly divided into TPN group and TPN+GH group. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 and CRP were detected in the first, third, seventh postoperative day. ResultsThe levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 and CRP were significantly lower in TPN+GH group than those in the TPN group at the first, third, seventh postoperative day （P＜0.01）. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 and CRP were significantly higher at the indicated time of postoperative days than the pre-operative days in the two groups (P＜0.01）. ConclusionBy inhibiting TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6 and CRP production in gastrointestinal carcinoma patients undergone operation and blocking high catabolism induced by inflammatory cytokines, GH promotes the synthesis of anabolism.
ObjectiveTo investigate the relationship between the expression of IL-8 protein in triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) and clinicopathological features and survival prognosis.MethodsThe expression of IL-8 protein in 80 cases of TNBC was detected by immunohistochemical staining, and the relationship between the expression of IL-8 protein and clinicopathological features and prognosis of TNBC patients was analyzed by χ2 test, log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazards regression.ResultsIn 80 TNBC patients, the high expression of IL-8 protein accounted for 22.5% (18/80). The expression level of IL-8 protein in TNBC tumor tissue was correlated with T stage, clinical stage, Ki-67 expression, WHO grade and lymph node metastasis (P<0.05). However, it was not related to age, menopausal status, pathological type of tumor and whether they had received neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P>0.05). The results of log-rank analysis showed that the disease-free survival rate (DFS) of high expression group of IL-8 protein was poor than that of low expression group of IL-8 protein (P<0.05). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the expression of IL-8 protein was an independent factor affecting the survival and prognosis of TNBC patients [HR=1.180, 95%CI (1.001, 1.391), P=0.049]. The prognosis of TNBC patients with high expression of IL-8 protein was poor.ConclusionThe expression level of IL-8 protein is an independent risk factor affecting the survival and prognosis of patients with TNBC.
Objective To investigate the mRNA and protein expression of human β-defensin-2 (hBD-2) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)，IL-1β and TNF-α in human airway primary epitheliums.Methods The bronchial primary epitheliums from human were stimulated with LPS，IL-1β and TNF-α respectively and then were harvested for hBD-2 expression detection.The mRNA expression of hBD-2 was detected by RT-PCR，and the protein expression by immunocytochemistry and western blot.Results There was a small expression of hBD-2 mRNA in human airway primary epitheliums before stimulation.The hBD-2 mRNA expression was significantly increased after 3 hours of LPS，IL-1β and TNF-α stimulation respectively and the expression increasement was in a dose dependent manner.The hBD-2 protein could be detected in cytoplasm after 4 hours of LPS (0.1 μg/mL)，IL-1β (1 ng/mL) and TNF-α (10 ng/mL) stimulation.Conclusions LPS and proinflammatory cytokines can induce the mRNA and protein expression of hBD-2 in a short time.The expression of hBD-2 may play an initial defense role against bacterial invasion.
