(1) Alveolar hypoxia (10% O(2) breathing, 60 minutes) produced a rapid (5-minute) increase in plasma MCP-1 concentrations in conscious intact rats but not in alveolar macrophage-depleted rats.
(1) In the EB group, the serum levels of ALT, AST, ALP, TBA, TBil, and DBil after EB administration increased significantly (P less than 0.01), but there were no significant changes in the NS group (P more than 0.05); (2) Intrahepatic cholestasis appeared in the EB group, but not in the NS group; (3) The mRNA expressions of SHP and CYP7A1 were significantly higher in the EB group than in the NS group [(SHPmRNA: NS 0.365+/-0.0317 vs EB 0.4865+/-0.0237, P less than 0.01), (CYP7A1 mRNA: NS 0.3570+/-0.0175 vs EB 0.4802+/-0.0217, P less than 0.01)]; (4) The protein expressions of SHP and CYP7A1 were also higher in the EB group than that in the NS group [(SHP: NS 0.3762+/-0.0284 vs EB 0.5033+/-0.0274, P less than 0.01), (CYP7A1: NS 0.3570+/-0.0175 vs EB 0.4802+/-0.0217, P less than 0.01)].
(1) The SH group showed the fastest catch-up growth, serum IGF1, IGFBP3, VH, and VSA were significantly higher than those of normal control group and IUGR control group.
(1)ALI is characterized by overwhelming expression of TNF-alpha mRNA, IL-1beta mRNA, while the expression of IL-1ra mRNA is much delayed than TNF-alpha mRNA and IL-1beta mRNA.
(1S, 3S)-3-amino-4-difluoromethylenyl-1-cyclopentanoic acid (CPP-115), a potent γ-aminobutyric acid aminotransferase inactivator for the treatment of cocaine addiction.
(2) IL-13 protein in supernatants of asthmatic lymphocytes was higher than that produced by normal control lymphocytes, and was significantly increased by EGF treatment.
