[Influence of acupunction on NT-4 expression in spared root ganglion and spinal cord].
To explore the changes of the expression of NT-4 in spared dorsal root ganglia (DRG,L6) on both the operation/Acup side and the nonoperation/non-Acup side as well as in the spinal lamina II (L3, L5, L6) and Clarke' nucleus (L3) of the normal adult cats, partial dorsal rhizotomy cats, and Acup spared DRG cats so as to disclose the relation between NT-4 and the plasticity of spinal cord as well as the Acup promoting spinal cord plasticity. ⋯ The above finding indicate that NT-4 plays an important role in the mechanism by which Acup promotes spinal cord plasticity. Partial dorsal root rhizotomy and Acup spared DRG may exert effects on the expression of NT-4 in the/non-operrtion non-Acup side of DRG.

[The pulmonary protective effects of leukocyte depletion with a modified filter located at the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) venous line in canine].
To investigate the pulmonary protective effects of short-term leukocyte depletion with a modified filter located at the CPB venous line in canine. ⋯ The LD-1 filter in the CPB venous-line in canine model used for short-term leukocyte depletion filtration could reduce WBC counts significantly, decrease the levels of IL-6 and IL-8 in plasma, attenuate inflammatory response in the lung after CPB, so it has protective effect on canine lung.
