The rabbits were equally divided into cyproheptadine (Cyp) treated group and control group. Blood samples 30 minutes after liquid and blood infusion and administration of Cyp (10 mg / kg) were collected from the carotid artery, and the plasma superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content measured. The results showed that Cyp remarkebly enhanced the plasma SOD activity (2462 338 vs 1955- 596, P<0.01) and reduced MDA content (2.68- 0.24 vs 3.20-0.49, P<0.01). We believe that the in crease of O2 production plays an important role in the develop-ment of shock, the single blood and liquid infusion can not significantly improve the shock conditions. Scavenging oxygen free radicals and alleviating cellular damage and multiple or gan failure are the possible mechanisms of cyproheptadine anti-shock effect.展开更多

Fifteen women were treated with mifepristone and 15 were treated with mifepristone plus misoprostol. The remaining 15 served as controls. The tPA and PAI-1 mRNA levels were estimated by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Chromogenic assay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to detect tPA activity and PAI-1 protein level in decidua. Results The activities of tPA in the mifepristone plus misoprostol group and in the mifepristone group were 46.91±20.74?IU/mg*protein and 64.25±35.81?IU/mg*protein respectively, lower than those in the normal decidua group (99.76±58.61?IU/mg*protein, P<0.05). tPA mRNA levels in the mifepristone plus misoprostol group were the highest (1.43±0.39) among the groups. In the mifepristone group, tPA mRNA level (0.90±0.16) was not significantly different from that in the normal decidua group (0.94±0.17). The protein and mRNA expression levels of PAI-1 were not significantly different among the three groups (P>0.05).Conclusions Mifepristone plus misoprostol decreased tPA activity in human early decidua by post-transcription pathways, which may influence decidua shedding, endometrial angiogenesis, endometrial remodeling, and cause prolonged uterine hemorrhage after drug abortion.展开更多
