The effect of triterpene acids of eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) lindl.leaf on the expression of iNOS and production of NO in alveolar macrophage of chronic bronchitis rats;

Effects of NF-κB decoy oligonucleotides modified with locked nucleic acids on matrix metalloproteinase-9 expression induced by TNF-α in alveolar macrophages;

Experimental study on the changes of IκK-β/NF-κB in alveolar macrophagesin the process of ischemia-reperfusion injury following hemorrhagic shock;

Comparison of histological structure of pulmonary alveoli between 180 days old yak and plain cattle;

AIM To investigate the effect of prenatal administration of dexamethasone (DEX) on the development of pulmonary alveoli in newborn rats.

Results Pulmonary alveoli of 1-day oldyak dilated sufficiently more than that of the cattle.

Results The pancreatic tissue is chief composed of glandular lobules formed with acinus and connective tissue separating these lobules.

Watched under the microscope, the development of the epithelial of mucous membrane, the hyaline cartilage and the acinus showed as follows:1.

Cholecystokinin stimulates peptide chain elongation in mouse pancreatic acini and its molecular mechanism

Using the measurment of amylase activity, influences of U73122, an inhibitor of phospholipase C(PLC), and trifluoperazine, an inhibitor of calmodulin (CaM), on amylase secretion stimulated by carbachol(CCh), cholecystokinin octapeptide (CCk-8) and saikosaponin(I) in rat pancreatic acini were studied.

The relationships of dose response and time response for pancreatic acini enzyme secretion in rat induced by saikuside and saikosaponin I and the effects of [Ca 2+ ] o on them are studied.
