Effect of Surfactants on the Interfacial
Effect of Surfactants on the Interfacial Tension and Emulsion Formation between Water and Carbon Dioxide Sandro R.P.da Rocha,Kristi L.Harrison,and Keith P.Johnston*Department of Chemical Engineering,University of Texas,Austin,Texas78712Received July8,1998.In Final Form:October7,1998 The lowering of the interfacial tension(γ)between water and carbon dioxide by various classes of surfactants is reported and used to interpret complementary measurements of the capacity,stability,and average drop size of water-in-CO2emulsions.γis lowered from∼20to∼2mN/m for the best poly(propylene oxide)-b-poly(ethylene oxide)-b-poly(propylene oxide)(PPO-b-PEO-b-PPO)and PEO-b-PPO-b-PEO Pluronic triblock copolymers,1.4mN/m for a poly(butylene oxide)-b-PEO copolymer,0.8mN/m for a perfluoropolyether (PFPE)ammonium carboxylate and0.2mN/m for PDMS24-g-EO22.The hydrophilic-CO2-philic balance (HCB)of the triblock Pluronic and PDMS-g-PEO-PPO surfactants is characterized by the CO2-to-water distribution coefficient and“V-shaped”plots of logγvs wt%EO.A minimum inγis observed for the optimum HCB.As the CO2-philicity of the surfactant tail is increased,the molecular weight of the hydrophilic segment increases for an optimum HCB.The stronger interactions on both sides of the interface lead to a lowerγ.Consequently,more water was emulsified for the PDMS-based copolymers than either the PPO-or PBO-based copolymers.IntroductionSupercritical fluid(SCF)carbon dioxide(T c)31°C,P c )73.8bar)is an environmentally benign alternative to organic solvents for waste minimization.It is nontoxic, nonflammable,and inexpensive.However,because of its very low dielectric constant, ,and polarizability per volume,R/v,CO2is a poor solvent for most nonvolatile lipophilic and hydrophilic solutes.1It may be considered a third type of condensed phase,different from lipophilic and hydrophilic phases.Consequently,it is possible to disperse either lipophilic or hydrophilic phases into CO2, in the form of microemulsions,emulsions,and latexes, given an appropriate surfactant.Because of the low values of and R/v for CO2,the most CO2-philic types of functional groups have low cohesive energy densities,e.g.,fluoro-carbons,fluoroethers,and siloxanes.2-6The solvent strength of carbon dioxide may be understood by the fact that the solubility of a polymer in carbon dioxide is highly correlated with the surface tension of the pure polymer melt.7For example,poly(fluoroacrylates)with low surface tensions of10-15mN/m are highly soluble,whereas poly-(dimethylsiloxanes)with surface tensions of20mN/m are moderately soluble,and hydrocarbon polymers with higher surface tensions show very low solubility.For nonpolar or slightly polar polymers,the surface tension is a measure of the van der Waals forces and is related to the cohesive energy density.Because R/v is so small for CO2,polymers with low cohesive densities and surface tensions are the most soluble.The first generation of research involving surfactants in SCFs addressed reverse micelles and water-in-SCF microemulsions,for fluids such as ethane and propane8,9 as reviewed recently.10,11Microemulsions are thermody-namically stable and optically transparent,with typical droplet diameters of about2-10nm.The mechanistic insight gained from these studies of phase equilibria, interfacial curvature,and droplet interactions in a su-percritical fluid is directly applicable to carbon dioxide. Attempts to form water-in-CO2(w/c)microemulsions have been elusive.6,12,13For PFPE COO-NH4+w/c microemul-sions,FTIR,UV-visible absorbance,fluorescence,and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)experiments have demonstrated the existence of an aqueous domain in CO2 with a polarity approaching that of bulk water,14as has also been shown by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS).15Organic-in-CO2microemulsions have also been formed for600molecular weight poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG600)and for polystyrene oligomers.16,17In many previous studies,surfactant activity in CO2has been characterized in terms of water uptake into a CO2 microemulsion.Since the results were negative most of the time,it has been difficult to determine how to design surfactants to the water-CO2interface.A more direct property,such as the interfacial tension,is needed to understand the activity of surfactants at various interfaces containing carbon dioxide.In SCF systems,only a few studies have measured the interfacial tension(γ)even for simple binary systems(1)O’Shea,K.;Kirmse,K.;Fox,M.A.;Johnston,K.P.J.Phys.Chem. 1991,95,7863.(2)McHugh,M.A.;Krukonis,V.J.Supercritical Fluid Extraction: Priciples and Practice,2nd ed.;Butterworth:Stonham,MA,1994.(3)Hoefling,T.A.;Newman,D.A.;Enick,R.M.;Beckman,E.J.J.

This phase usually becomes the external phase,according to the Bancroft rule.27Unlike the case for conventional solvents,a small change in pressure or temperature can have a large influence on the density and thus on the solvent strength of a supercritical fluid.By“tuning”the interactions between the surfactant tail and the solvent,it becomes possible to manipulate the phase behavior,and therefore the activity of the surfactant at the interface and curvature,and also the extension of the surfactant tails.As an example of pressure tuning,a water-in-propane microemulsion is inverted to a propane-in-water microemulsion by varying the pressure by50bar in the C12EO6/brine/propane system, at constant temperature.28This system undergoes a phase inversion density,by analogy with the phase inversion temperature,for conventional systems.If the density is changed so that the surfactant prefers either phase over the other,the surfactant is less interfacially active and γincreases.16,22,23The objective of this study is to achieve a fundamental understanding of the lowering of the water-CO2inter-facial tension by different classes of surfactants and to use this knowledge to explain the formation and stability of water-in-CO2(w/c)emulsions.The surfactants include PFPE COO-NH4+,Pluronic R(PPO-b-PEO-b-PPO)and Pluronic L(PEO-b-PPO-b-PEO)triblock copolymers,poly-(butylene oxide-b-ethylene oxide)(PBO-b-PEO),and poly-(dimethylsiloxane)(PDMS)copolymers with PEO-PPO grafts(PDMS-g-PEO-PPO).Fromγmeasurements ver-sus concentration,the adsorption is investigated for PFPE COO-NH4+and used to determine the critical micro-emulsion concentration.For the PPO-and PDMS-based surfactants,the concept of a hydrophilic-CO2-philic bal-ance(HCB)is introduced by relatingγand the distribution coefficient of the surfactant to the EO fraction(see Figure 1).To understand howγand the HCB influence colloid stability,we chose to study w/c emulsions in contrast to previous studies of microemulsions,since so few of these surfactants form microemulsions.Emulsions are ther-modynamically unstable,but may be kinetically stable, with droplets from100nm to several micrometers in diameter.The presence of the surfactant at the interface lowers theγand thus the Laplace pressure,reducing the energy necessary to deform the interface.29The emulsions may be stabilized against flocculation due to van der Waals forces by steric stabilization,as has been analyzed theoretically,30-33and/or Marangoni stresses,due to gradients in interfacial tension at the interface.To characterize emulsion capacity,stability,and the average droplet size of the emulsions,an in-situ turbidity technique has been applied in addition to visual observations.The ability to design surfactants for the interface between CO2 and an aqueous phase based upon knowledge of the relationship between colloid formation and stability,phase behavior,andγis of interest for a wide variety of heterogeneous reactions and separation processes in CO2. Examples include dry cleaning,extraction with micro-(16)Harrison,K.L.;Johnston,K.P.;Sanchez,ngmuir1996, 12,2637-2644.(17)McClain,J.B.;Betts,D.E.;Canelas,D.A.;Samulski,E.T.; DeSimone,J.M.;Londono,J.D.;Cochran,H.D.;Wignall,G.D.;Chillura-Martino,D.;Triolo,R.Science1996,274,2049.(18)Heurer,G.Ph.D.Thesis,The University of Texas at Austin, 1957.(19)Chun,B.-S.;Wilkinson,G.T.Ind.Eng.Chem.Res.1995,34, 4371-4377.(20)Schiemann,H.;Wiedner,E.;Peter,S.J.Supercrit.Fluids1993, 6,181-189.(21)Lee,H.O.;Heller,J.P.;Hoefer,A.M.W.SPE Reservoir Eng. 1991,11,421-428.(22)O’Neill,M.;Yates,M.Z.;Harrison,K.L.;Johnston,P.K.;Canelas,D.A.;Betts,D.E.;DeSimone,J.M.;Wilkinson,S.P.Macromolecules1997,30,5050-5059.(23)Harrison,K.L.;da Rocha,S.R.P.;Yates,M.Z.;Johnston,K.

used as received.Deionized water (NANOpureII;Barnstead)and instrument grade carbon dioxide (99.99%)were used for all experiments.Phase Behavior.Phase boundaries were determined in the variable-volume view cell as described in further detail else-where.7For a given weight of surfactant and CO 2,the pressure of the system was increased until a single phase was observed in the view cell.The pressure was then decreased slowly until the solution became slightly turbid.The pressure was then increased again,and the process was repeated.The pressure where the system became turbid was classified as the cloud point pressure.The pressure and temperature were measured to (0.2bar and (0.1°C,respectively.Interfacial Tension Measurements.The tandem variable-volume pendant drop tensiometer described previously 16was used to measure the interfacial tension between CO and water (γ).The apparatus consisted of two variable volume view cells (the drop phase cell and the measurement cell (continuous phase cell)),an optical rail for proper alignment,a light source,a video camera,and a computer.The drop phase cell contained water saturated with an excess amount of pure CO 2,and the continuous phase cell contained CO 2and surfactant (if present).In this configuration,the surfactant only has to diffuse short distances in the small volume of the droplet phase.Pendant drops were formed on the end of a stainless steel or PEEK capillary tube with an inside diameter ranging from 0.01to 0.03in.Once a suitable drop was formed,the six-port switching valve connecting the two cells was closed and timing of the drop age was started.Several images were recorded as a function of drop age.Images of the drop were obtained in a tagged imagefile format (TIFF)and the edge of the drop was extracted from data at various global threshold values using a C ++program.From the shape of the interface,the γmay be obtained from the Laplace equationwhere ∆P is the pressure differential across the interface,R 0is the radius of curvature at the apex of the drop,and z is the vertical distance from the apex.A set of three first-order differential equations was used to express Laplace’s equation,and a computer program 39,40was used to solve for γ.The density difference between the two phases was calculated by using an equation of state for pure CO 241and steam tables for pure water.The aqueous phase density was assumed to change less than 0.0025g/cm 3for the concentrations of surfactant studied.Emulsion Formation,Stability,and Average Droplet Size Estimation.Figure 2shows a schematic representation of the experimental apparatus,similar to a previous version,for turbidimetric measurement and visual observation of emulsion formation and stability.22The system consists of a 28-mL variable-volume view cell,an optical cell (0.1cm path length)which was mounted in a spectrophotometer (Cary 3E UV -vis),a high-pressure reciprocating pump (minipump with a flow rate of 8-80mL/min),and a manual pressure generator (High-Pressure Equip.,model 87-6-5).A six-port switching valve (Valco Instru-ments Co.,Inc.)with an external sampling loop was used to add water to the system.The pressure was monitored to (0.2bar with a strain gauge pressure transducer (Sensotec),and the temperature was controlled to within (0.1°C.Surfactant was initially loaded into the view cell,and the desired amount of CO 2was added with the pressure generator.The pressure was increased,and the system equilibrated at the desired T ,for ∼2h,by using a magnetic stir bar.The cloud point of the surfactant was obtained as described above.The solution was then recirculated,and deionized water was injected into the system via the 150-µL sample loop in the switching valve.The solution was sheared through a 130µm i.d.×50mm long stainless steel capillary tube upstream of the optical cell.Emulsion formation and stability were characterized based upon turbidity measurements versus time (t )at a constant wavelength (λ)650nm)and also visual observation.The turbidity is a measure of the reduction in transmitted intensity,τ)(1/l )ln(I 0/I ),where l is the path length and I 0and I are the incident and transmitted intensities,respectively.After the injection of each increment of water,the emulsion was stirred and recirculated for ∼20min (approximate time required for the absorbance to reach a maximum value).Immediately after recirculation and stirring were stopped,τmeasurements started.The stability was assessed from τas a function of t ,while

temperatures as a function of pressure,along with the data of Heurer18and Chun and Wilkinson.19Our interfacial tensions were measured1h after drop formation.Theγvalues obtained by Chun and Wilkinson19were measured with the capillary rise technique.Whereas local equilibrium was achieved within the capillary tube,the entire system was not at equilibrium.Heurer used the pendant drop technique; however,the values reported were obtained from the drop profile within10s of drop formation.Therefore,the lower values ofγin the present study suggest a closer approach to true equilibrium.A simple physical picture may be used to explain the behavior for most of the pressure range studied.16At pressures below70bar,γdecreases with increasing pressure.The cohesive energy density or free energy density of CO2is well below that of water at all pressures. The density and free energy density of CO2change over a wide range with pressure,whereas the values for essentially incompressible water are constant.As the density of the CO2phase increases,its free energy density becomes closer to that of water,andγdecreases.At low pressures where the density and free energy density change a great deal with pressure,the decrease inγis pronounced.At high pressures,where CO2is more “liquidlike”,it is much less compressible and the decrease inγwith pressure is small.For the CO2-PEG600interface,γwas predicted quantitatively with a gradientmodel and the lattice fluid equation of state.16The latticefluid model is less applicable for water due to thecomplexities resulting from hydrogen bonding and car-bonic acid formation.A cusp in the curve ofγversus pressure is observed attemperatures and pressures near the critical point of CO2.The region of the cusp inγshifts to slightly higherpressures as the temperature is increased above the criticaltemperature of CO2.For supercritical temperatures,themagnitude of the cusp increases as the temperature isdecreased toward the critical temperature.At25,1935,and38°C,the cusp in the interfacial tension is verynoticeable,while it becomes small at45°C and is notvisible at71°C.18The following argument explains how the cusp is relatedto the large compressibility of CO2.An upward pointingcusp has been observed for the surface excess of ethyleneon graphitized carbon black.45The excess adsorption canbe defined in terms of the density of the bulk phase andthe density of the interfacial region46where F(z)is the molar density of the fluid at a distancez from the surface.At pressures below the critical pressureregion,F(z)can be much larger than F,due to attractionof solvent to the surface,leading to a largeΓex.At higherpressures,the bulk fluid is much denser,so that thedifference between F(z)and F is much smaller resultingin a smallerΓex.As temperature increases above thecritical temperature of the solvent,the tendency of thesurface to raise F(z)to“liquidlike”densities diminishesandΓex decreases.Similar arguments apply to theadsorption of CO2at the water-CO2interface.TheenhancedΓex is manifested as the downward cusp inγ.Inboth examples,the cusps become broader and shift tohigher pressures at higher temperatures.Similar behavioris observed for peaks in plots of the isothermal compress-ibility of pure CO2versus pressure at constant temper-ature.To put the above results in perspective,new interfacialtension data are shown for the PEG600-CO2interface tocomplement earlier data16only at45°C(Figure4).Thevalues ofγfor the water-CO2interface are considerablylarger than those for the PEG600-CO2,PS(M n)1850),23CO2-PEHA(M n)32k)interfaces.22This result is dueprimarily to the much larger surface tension of water,∼72mN/m,versus that of PEG,∼35mN/m,and PEHA, 30mN/m.However,it is interesting thatγbetween CO2and water at high pressures,20mN/m,is below that forwater-hydrocarbon interfaces.For heptane and octane,the hydrocarbon-waterγis about50mN/m.This lower γis consistent with the higher miscibility between CO2 and water47versus hydrocarbons and water.The stronger interactions between CO2and water versus hydrocarbons and water are due to the small size of CO2which causes a smaller penalty in hydrophobic hydration,CO2’s quad-rupole moment,and,finally,Lewis and Bronsted acid-base interactions.Over the entire pressure range for PEG600-CO2at25and45°C,the interfacial tension decreased monotonicallywith increasing pressure,unlike the case for CO2-water(42)Yang,K.C.;Hogg,R.Anal.Chem.1979,51,758-763.(43)Burns,R.C.;Graham,C.;Weller,A.R.M.Mol.Phys.1986,59,(45)Findenegg,G.H.In Fundamentals of

behavior may also be due to a difference in the density gradient and thickness in the interfacial region for the two systems,for example,greater miscibility for the CO 2-PEG600system.Interfacial Tension:PFPE Ammonium Carboxy-late.The addition of small amounts of PFPE COO -NH 4+decreases γsubstantially as shown at 45°C and 276bar in Figure 5.As the concentration is raised above 0.03%surfactant,a discontinuity is observed,and the magnitude of the slope becomes much smaller.Because it has been shown that w/c microemulsions are formed in this system,14the discontinuity can be attributed to a critical microemulsion concentration (c µc)for the PFPE COO --NH 4+surfactant,as has been done for oil -water inter-faces.24At concentrations above the c µc,the less negative slope is caused by the addition of surfactant primarily to adsorption at the pendant drop interface,the change in γis reduced.The adsorption obtained from the Gibbs’adsorption equationfor the PFPE COO -NH 4+surfactant was 1.77×10-10mol/cm 2,which corresponds to a surface coverage of ∼100Å2/molecule.Such a high surface coverage is sufficient for the formation of microemulsions.A comparable value of ∼140Å2/molecule was measured by Eastoe et al.48at 500bar and 25°C for the hybrid hydrocarbon -fluorocarbon C 7F 15CH(OSO 3-Na +)C 7H 15surfactant in CO 2.This value was determined by assuming that all the surfactant is adsorbed at the interface of spherical droplets of 25Å2radius,as measured by SANS,with a polydispersity of ∼0.2.The substantial reduction in γand relatively high surfactant adsorption explain why it was possible to form a w/c microemulsion with PFPE COO -NH 4+.The same surfactant had an absorption of 400Å2/molecule at the CO 2-PEG interface.16Phase behavior studies indicated that PEG-in-CO 2microemulsions are also formed with this surfactant,but the nature of the core has not been characterized.16Interfacial Tension:Fluoroether Sulfate and Sorbitol Surfactant.The phase behavior of fluoroether sulfates and fluoroether sorbitols was measured by Singley et al.38for various molecular weights of single-,twin-,and triple-tailed surfactants.The surfactants were soluble in CO 2at 33°C and moderate pressure (<300bar).The sorbitol surfactants were found to be more soluble in CO 2than the sulfate ones,as expected due to the low solubilities of ions in CO 2,because of its low dielectric constant.The results showed that branching depresses the cloud point curve of a surfactant until the solubility becomes domi-nated by the overall molecular weight.These surfactants were used to form CO 2-in-water and middle-phase emul-sions with excess CO 2and water.38The interfacial tension was measured at the water -CO 2interface for the single-tailed M w 2500sulfate and the triple-tailed (7500g/mol total)sorbitol surfactants.Our measured cloud point for the 1.4%(w/w)CO 2sorbitol surfactant was 215.6bar at 45°C.For 0.56%sulfate surfactant,it was 139.8bar at 45°C.The sulfate surfactant did not lower the interfacial tension significantly over the pressure range of 180-283bar 45°C at a concentration of 0.56%.The interfacial tension was difficult to determine accurately,because bubbles and possibly surfactant precipitate appeared on the surface of the pendant drop within 15min of drop formation.The interfacial tension was estimated to be ∼15mN/m by using manual edge detection of the pendant drop.For the sorbitol surfactant,the interfacial tension decreased to ∼5.5mN/m at 276bar and 45°C with a concentration of 1.4%.Relative to other surfactants reported in this study,these surfactants were less successful in lowering the interfacial tension.Interfacial Tension:PPO -PEO -PPO,PEO -PPO -PEO,and PBO -PEO Surfactants.Block co-polymers containing CO 2-philic and hydrophilic (CO 2-phobic)functional groups may be designed to be active at the CO 2-water interface.In this section,the CO 2-philic blocks are poly(propylene oxide)and poly(butylene oxide),while the CO 2-phobic block is poly(ethylene oxide).TheFigure 4.Interfacial tension for the PEG600-CO 2interface at varioustemperatures.Figure 5.Interfacial tension for the water

文章认为,FACE系统是当前研究CO2肥效作用最接近自然状况的模拟系统,对研究作物生理生态、品质与环境关系等问题具有重要的适用性和先进性。
但该系统也存在着CO2浓度与自然变幅不吻合、与温度等环境因子不匹配等人为调控的局限性。
作者结合近年来对FACE 系统和半开放式梯度实验系统(CO22Temperature Gradient Chambers,CT GC)的使用和调试,对2个系统做了比较。
建议FACE系统与CT GC系统配合使用,更利于解决模拟环境真实性,提高实验精度;在FACE系统中,建议把CO2的目标浓度改为幅度值以解决与自然变幅相符合的问题。
在研究对象方面,建议开展作物世代研究和环境综合研究,以求精确阐明CO2浓度增高对作物影响机理与影响程度,为准确判断气候变化背景下粮食生产和粮食安全提供科学依据。

Studies have shown that dietary supplementation of bile salts improves emulsion formation and fat digestibility in chickens(Kussaibati et al.,1982;Polin et al.,1980a).In avian species,lipogenesis takes place primarily in the liver and the liver account for95%of the de novo fatty acid synthesis and there is apparently a general assumption that almost all the fat that accumulates in broiler adipose tissue is synthesized in the liver or is derived from the diet(Harry et al.,1992).The liver is the most important organ for the intermediary metabolism of lipids and energy and hence,regulation of hepatic gene expression may play a central role in the adaptive response to altered digestion by changing the capacity of enzymes in relevant metabolic pathways(Theil and Lauridsen,2007).The development of adipose tissue depends on the availability of plasma triglycerides that are hydrolyzed prior to their uptake by adipocytes and de novo synthesized fatty acids.They are supplied specifically to adipocytes by specific lipoprotein classes (Amal et al.,2002).Dietary phospholipids of soybean may affect hepatic triglyceride synthesis and in turn modify serum lipid profiles(Ristic et al.,2003).Thus,to determine the effects of soy-lecithin on lipid metabolism,we investigated changes in the levels of serum lipid profiles,key metabolic hormones and the expression of selected hepatic lipogenic genes.2.Materials and methods2.1.Animals and dietsTwo hundred and forty1-day-old male Arbor Acres(AA) chicks obtained from a local commercial hatchery(Hewei, Anhui,China)were randomly assigned to4treatment groups consisting of10replicates of6birds.The average initial body weight did not differ among the four groups.Chicken were fed corn–soybean basal diets and supplemented with0%soy-lecithin(control),0.5%soy-lecithin(SL1),1%soy-lecithin (SL2),2%soy-lecithin(SL3),respectively.The percentage of all other major ingredients remained similar across treatments.The diet was formulated to meet the nutrient requirements of the broiler(NRC,1994).The birds were fed a starter diet until21d of age followed by a grower diet from21to42d(Table1).Birds were allowed to consume both feed and water on an ad libitum basis and housed(six per cage)in an environmentally controlled room maintained at34–36°C during1to14days and thenTable1Formulation and analyzed

(06:00–18:00h light).2.2.Experimental procedureThe last day of the experiment,all chickens were fasted for 12h with free access to water before experimentation.The morning after,one chicken was then randomly selected from each pen replicate (40chickens,totally),weighed and killed by exsanguina-tion.Individual blood samples were taken and separated by centrifugation at 3000×g for 15min and at 4°C.Serum samples were frozen at −20°C for further analysis.Liver samples were removed and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored in a freezer at −70°C for subsequent extraction of total RNA.Thigh muscle and breast muscle were removed and stored at −20°C for the analysis of fat content.The abdominal fat was removed and weighed and the thickness of subcutaneous fat and the width of inter-muscular fat were measured using sliding caliper.2.3.Lipid extractionThe lipid of thigh and breast muscle was extracted according to the method of Folch et al.(1956).Meat samples (5g ±0.01)were homogenized with 100ml of chloroform –methanol (2:1,v/v)solution for 2min,filtered,placed in separator funnels and mixed with 20ml saline solution (0.88%KCl).After separation in two phases,the

with the RIA kits provided by Beijing North Institute of Biotechnology (Beijing,China).2.5.Real-time quantitative PCR analysis of gene expression Total RNA was isolated using the TRIzol reagent (Takara,Japan)according to the manufacturer's protocol.The RNA integrity was assessed via agarose gel electrophoresis and RNA concentration and purity was determined spectrophotometri-cally using A 260and A 280measurements in a photometer (Eppendorf Biophotometer).Ratios of absorption (260/280nm)of all preparations were between 1.8and 2.0.Reverse transcription (RT)reactions (25μl)consisted of 2μg total RNA,100U of M-MLV reverse transcriptase (Promega,Belgium),40U of recombinat RNAsin ribonuclease inhibitor (Promega,Belgium),0.8mmol/l dNTP (Promega,Belgium),and 1μg random primers (Promega,Belgium)in distilled water and buffer supplied by the manufacturer.After incubation (37°C,60min),the mixture was heated (95°C,5min).Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)was performed in 25μl containing 2.5μl of the RT reaction products,12.5μl SYBR Real-time PCR Master Mix (TOYOBO,Life Science Depart-ment,Osaka,Japan),0.1–0.2mmol/l of each gene specific primer and β-actin,the internal standard (Table 2).The expression of β-actin had no significant difference among the four groups.Thermal cycling parameters were as follows:1cycle 95°C for 5min,and then 40cycles at 95°C for 30s,58–60°C for 30s,72°C for 20s on an STRATAGENE MX3000P ™Sequence Detection System (MXpro ™QPCR software).Fluorescence data was collected in the latter stage by recording SYBR incorporation into amplified DNA.Fluor-escent data were used to derive the C (t )or the PCR cycle at a threshold which is noted as the first significant deviation in fluorescence from a base line value.Analyses were

are important dietary ingredients due to their high energy value,and their fatty acid pattern is to a great extent reflected in that of animal products (Duran-Montg et al.,2007).But the utilization of dietary fat is limited in young broilers because of the lack of several digestion enzymes (Krogdahl and Sell,1989).Phospholipids are known to have surface active properties.They are important in the emulsification of lipids and may influence the absorption of fatty acids in the small intestine (Jenkins et al.,1989).Fig.2.Hepatic ME (A),FAS (B),ACC (C),SCD1(D),SREBP-1(E)and L-FABP (F)gene expression in chickens fed diets containing 0%(Control),0.5%(SL1),1%(SL2)or 2%(SL3)of soy-lecithin in diets after 42days.RNA molecules extracted from liver were reversely transcribed to cDNA and analyzed by quantitative Real-time RT-PCR.For comparison between different samples,the ME,FAS,ACC,SCD1,SREBP-1and L-FABP transcript level of each sample was normalized for the β-actin level and expressed as a multiple of expression level of control,respectively.Values are means±SE,n =6.Means without a common letter are significantly different at P b 0.05(small letter).57J.Huang et al./Livestock Science 118(2008)53–603.1.Body compositionThe body weight of broilers in SL3group were de-creased(P b0.05)after42days intake of soy-lecithin (Table3).Soybean lecithin did not influence the liver weight of6-week-old broilers and the relative abdominal adipose tissue(%of body weight).By contrast,the relative proportion of liver(%of body weight)was significantly increased(P b0.01)and abdominal adipose tissue was decreased(P b0.05).The content of breast muscle fat and the width of inter-muscular adipose tissue was not affected by the addition of soy-lecithin(P N0.05) while the subcutaneous adipose tissue was improved in SL1group and the percentage of thigh muscle fat was significantly improved in SL2group(P b0.05).The relative weight of liver can be improved by soy-lecithin in broilers,and this is consistent with what was observed in a previous study(Wang et al.,1999).In avian species, lipogenesis takes place primarily in the liver(Leveille et al.,1975).Soy-lecithin can improve the relative weight of liver and maybe correlated with the enhanced lipid metabolism in liver.3.2.Serum parametersConcentrations of plasma lipids and lipoproteins are indicative of the metabolic regulations in a steady state and,especially,of the basal adjustment of fatty acid circulation between the adipose tissue and the liver (Amal et al.,2002).Several studies have indicated that lecithin,a phosphatidyl choline containing phospholi-pid,has hypocholesterolemic properties(Thomas et al., 1998).Effects of soy-lecithin on serum concentrations of lipoproteins for all broilers after42days are shown in Fig.1.In SL3group,feeding soy-lecithin resulted in a lower serum concentration of TC(P=0.079)and LDL-C(P=0.071),and it is in agreement with previous works (Jones et al.,1992;Thomas et al.,1998;Tompkins and Parkin,1980),whereas serum concentrations of HDL-C and TG were increased.It is not clear through which mechanism soy-lecithin induces its plasma cholesterol-lowering effects.Possibly,this might be brought about by inhibiting the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine as suggested by Iwata et al.(1992)and Spilburg et al.(2003).In the present study,the circulating levels of TSH and INS were increased when crude soybean lecithin was included in the diets of broilers in a proportion of2% (Table4).No significant differences were observed on the serum SG,FFA and T4except that the concentration of T3in SL1group was decreased compared with other groups(P b0.05).Key plasma metabolic hormones (insulin,glucagon and T3)are important factors that determine the level of hepatic lipogenesis in birds (Hillgartner et al.,1995).3.3.Hepatic lipogenic gene expressionSoybean lecithin affected the expression of hepatic genes involved in lipid metabolism,particularly those genes regulating lipogenesis including acetyl-CoA car-boxylase(ACC),malic enzyme(ME),fatty acid synthase (FAS)and stearoyl-CoA(Δ9)desaturase1(SCD1) (P b0.05)(Fig.2).In the present study,soybean lecithin caused the increases of ME,FAS,ACC and SCD1mRNA levels in a dose-dependent manner(Table5).In addition, expression of liver fatty acid binding protein(L-FABP), which is involved in lipid transport,and the transcriptionTable5Correlations between diet soybean lecithin levels and the expression of genes related to lipogenesis in broiler

similar manner.In general,lipogenic gene expression levels relative toβ-actin were increased significantly with inclusion of lecithin in the diets(P b0.05).Some of the highest correlations were found among lipogenic genes linked in the lipogenisis such as ME,FAS,ACC and SREBP-1. This undoubtedly reflects the role of this key transcription factor in coordinating hepatic lipogenesis.The expression of a number of lipogenic enzyme genes such as FAS,ME, ACC,SCD1is directly influenced by SREBP-1(Richards et al.,2003).In the present study,the expression of SREBP-1was closely correlated with the expression of FAS genes,and this is consistent with Gondret et al. (2007)who observed that the relative distribution of ADD-1/SREBP-1mRNA between adipose tissue and liver closely parallels that of FAS expression in various species including rodents(rabbit),monogastric mammals (pig),and birds(chicken).In birds,the accumulation of lipid in extra hepatic tissues results to a large extent from the combined effects of hepatic lipogenesis and lipopro-tein production.Therefore,plasma triglyceride levels are dependent on the level of hepatic lipogenesis.In the present experiment,soybean lecithin increased serum levels of INS and TSH and up-regulated the expression of lipogenic genes(P b0.05).Nutritional(energy)status and the subsequent responses of key plasma metabolic hormones(insulin, glucagon and T3)are important factors that determine the level of hepatic lipogenesis in birds.Hepatic lipogenesis is highly responsive to changes in the diet(Hillgartner et al., 1995).In the present study,the food consumption of broilers fed with2%soybean lecithin was lower than other groups as was observed by our previous work (Huang et al.,2007)and(Azman and Ciftci,2004).Gene expression may be regulated anywhere from transcription to the actual enzyme protein.Soybean lecithin is a well known emulsifier to promote the apparent digestibility of dietary fat in diets fed to chicks(Polin,1980b).The up-regulated expression of lipogenic genes may be related to the increased lipid metabolism in the live of broilers.In conclusion,soybean lecithin alters serum lipids profiles and some key metabolic hormones and hepatic lipogenic gene expressions in broilers.The results im-plied that soy-lecithin could regulate fat metabolism of broilers by altering the hormone levels and lipogenic gene expressions in broiler chickens.AcknowledgementsThis work was supported by the National Basic Research Program of China,Project No.2004CB117500.The authors are grateful to Pro.R.Q.Zhao,associate Pro.Y.M.Zhou.Thanks are also extended to L.N.Wang, S.Wei,Y.Hu,H.T.Fan for their kind help.ReferencesAmal,M.,Michel,L.,Solang,G.,Maryline,K.,2002.Effect of dietary fats on hepatic lipid metabolism in the growing p.Biochem.Physiol.,Part B132,473–483.Azman,M.A.,Ciftci,M.,2004.Effects of replacing dietary fat with lecithin on broiler chicken zootechnical performance.Revue Med.Vet.155,445–448.Blanch,A.,Barroeta,A.,Baucells,M.,1996.Utilization of different fats and oils by adult chickens as a source of energy,lipid and fatty acids.Anim.Feed Sci.Tech.61,335–342.Duran-Montg,P.,Lizardo,R.,Torrallardona,D.,Esteve-Garcia,E., 2007.Fat and fatty acid digestibility of different fat sources in growing pigs.Livest.Sci.109,66–69.Folch,J.,Lees,M.,Sloane,G.H.,1956.A simple method for the isolation and purification of total lipides from aninal tissues.Biol.Chem.226,497–509.Gondret,F.,Ferre,P.,Dugail,I.,2007.ADD-1/SREBP-1is a major determinant of tissue differential lipogenic capacity in mammalian and avian species.Lipid Res.42,106–113.Harry,D.G.,Kunda,G.,Dawn,W.,Simon,C.,1992.Adipose tissue lipogenesis and fat deposition in leaner broiler chickens.Nutr.122, 363–368.Hillgartner,F.,Salati,L.,Goodridge,A.,1995.Physiological and molecular mechanisms involved in nutritional regulation of fatty acid synthesis.Physiol.Rev.75,47–76.Iwata,T.,Hoshi,S.,Takehisa,F.,Tsutsumi,K.,Furukawa,Y.,Kimura, S.,1992.The effect of dietary safflower phospholipid and soybean phospholipid on plasma and liver lipids in rats fed a hypercho-lesterolemic diet.J.Nutr.Sci.Vitaminol(Tokyo)38(5),471–479.

固定效应不收敛的原因
固定效应不收敛的原因(中英文版)英文文档:Fixed effects models are commonly used in panel data analysis to account for time-invariant individual or entity-specific characteristics.However, one potential issue with fixed effects models is the problem of non-convergence.This occurs when the estimators of the model fail to converge to the true parameters as the sample size increases.There are several reasons why fixed effects models may experience non-convergence.One reason is that the fixed effects estimator is based on the first-differences of the data, which can lead to serial correlation.This means that the errors in the model are not independently and identically distributed, which can cause the estimators to be inefficient and non-convergent.Another reason for non-convergence is that the fixed effects estimator can be sensitive to the inclusion of certain variables.If there are omitted variable bias or measurement error in the included variables, the fixed effects estimator may not converge to the true parameters.Additionally, the problem of non-convergence can also be exacerbated by the presence of perfect multicollinearity among the fixed effects.This occurs when there is a perfect linear relationship between two or more of the fixed effects, which can cause the estimators to be non-convergent.To address the issue of non-convergence in fixed effects models, researchers can consider using alternative methods such as the random effects model or the generalized method of moments.Alternatively, researchers can try to increase the sample size or improve the quality of the data to ensure convergence of the estimators.中文文档:固定效应模型常用于面板数据分析,以考虑时间不变的个人或实体特定特征。

,and based on ZHANG Zhong-jing's theory of protecting stomach Qi and supporting Yng Q ,professor ZHU Zhang-zhi believes that the pathogenesis of diabetes is deficiency of healthy Qi and stagnation of pathogen.Because of the deficiency of greater Yin and Yang Qi ,and the lack of convergence ,the cold ,water and dampness block the operational channel of Yang Qi.The treatment of diabetes mellitus should be based on reinforcing the healthy Qi and eliminating the pathogenic factors.By strengthening Taiyin ,supporting Yang Qi ,astringent Yang Qi ,dispelling the evil of cold ,water and dampness ,we can restore the smooth operation of Yang Qi ,restore the function of Yang Qi to normal and operate orderly ,which provides a new clinical method for the treatment of diabetes mellitus.㊀㊀Key words

Up-Regulation of Keratinocyte Growth Factor and Receptor:A Possible Mechanism of Action of Phenytoin in Wound HealingSwarga Jyoti Das and Irwin Olsen 1Department of Periodontology,Eastman Dental Institute for Oral Health Care Sciences,University College London,University of London,256Gray’s Inn Road,London WC1X 8LD,United KingdomReceived March 7,2001A number of studies suggest that keratinocyte growth factor (KGF)plays a major part in reepitheli-alisation after injury,via binding to the specific KGF receptor (KGFR).Several pharmacological agents,in-cluding the anti-epileptic drug phenytoin (PHT),have been widely used clinically to promote wound healing.Although the mechanism of action of PHT in this pro-cess is still not well understood,it is possible that the activity of PHT in wound healing is mediated via KGF and the KGFR.In the present study,using the enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay and flow cytometry we have shown that PHT increases KGF secretion and KGFR expression by more than 150%in gingival fibro-blasts and epithelial cells,respectively.Moreover,semi-quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction analysis showed that PHT also mark-edly increased both KGF and KGFR gene transcrip-tion by these cells.Our findings thus suggest that the wound healing activity of PHT in vivo may be medi-ated,at least partly,via KGF and its receptor.©2001Academic PressKey Words:ELISA;FGF;flow cytometry;KGF;KGFR;phenytoin;regeneration;RT-PCR;wound healing.Wound healing is a complex process involving cell migration,proliferation,differentiation,and the for-mation of new extracellular matrix (1).Many of these events are controlled by growth factors and are medi-ated by the transduction of intracellular signals follow-ing the binding of the factors to specific transmem-brane tyrosine kinase receptors.The role of growth factors specific for epithelial cells is,for example,ofmajor importance in the regrowth of damaged epithe-lial tissues,which occurs rapidly after injury (2,3).Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF)is the seventh member of the fibroblast growth factor (FGF)family and has 30to 45%homology with the other members of the FGF family.It is synthesised and secreted by mes-enchymal cells such as fibroblasts and is a potent mi-togen for a wide variety of epithelial cells (4).KGF acts via the KGF receptor (KGFR),which is a splice variant of the FGF receptor-2/bek gene that binds both KGF and acidic FGF with high affinity and basic FGF with lower affinity (5).However,KGFR is expressed only by epithelial cells,whereas FGF receptor-2is expressed by several different cell types (6).There is substantial evidence that KGF is involved in the wound healing process since KGF transcripts have been reported to be markedly up-regulated within 24h of injury (7)and an enhanced rate of epithelial regeneration has been observed following topical appli-cation of recombinant KGF (8,9).In addition,a rela-tively lower level of this growth factor has been ob-served in wound tissues in certain conditions associated with impaired wound healing (10,11).Se-vere delay in wound reepithelialisation in transgenic KGFR-knockout mice also suggests the importance of KGFR signalling in wound healing processes (12).Wound healing has also been shown to be en-hanced by a number of pharmacological agents,in-cluding phenytoin (PHT),a potent anti-epileptic drug.Accelerated repair of periodontal wounds with reduced postsurgical inflammation and pain was first noted with PHT in 1958(13)and,subsequently,in the healing of dental extraction sockets (14).Favourable results have also been reported with top-ical application of PHT in the treatment of various types of ulcers,burns,abscess cavities,and surgical wounds (15,16).In addition,PHT has been used to treat lichen planus and discoid lupus erythematosus,although with variable success (17).1To whom

onDespite numerous clinical trials and case studies, however,the mechanism of action of PHT in wound healing is still not well understood.Since KGF and KGFR have been shown to play a pivotal part in tissue repair processes,it is possible that the action of PHT is mediated at least partly via this growth factor and its receptor.In the present study we have therefore exam-ined the effects of PHT on the expression of KGF and KGFR and on the activity of their corresponding genes in gingival cells in vitro,as a model of the wound healing effects of PHT in vivo.MATERIALS AND METHODSPreparation of PHT.PHT(Sigma,Poole,UK)was dissolved in 100%ethanol(BDH,Laboratory supplies,Poole,UK)to obtain a stock solution of5mg/ml.It was used atfixed concentration of5and 10g/ml in the experiments described below.The samefinal con-centration of ethanol was used in both the control and PHT-containing media.Cell culture.Normal gingival tissue samples were obtained un-der the Eastman Dental Institute and Hospital Joint Ethics and Research Committee.Confluent cultures of gingivalfibroblast(GF) cells were obtained by incubating biopsy samples of normal gingiva (NG)fromfive healthy individuals(three males and two females;age range30to40years,mean age35Ϯ7.1),as previously described (18).The cells were detached from the monolayer by treating them with0.25%trypsin in1mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(EDTA) (Gibco Life Technologies Ltd.,Paisley,UK),collected by centrifuga-tion and serially passaged in25cm2tissue cultureflasks(Falcon, Becton Dickinson Labware;Cowley,UK).The number and viability of the cells were determined by trypan blue staining at the time of each passage.Cells at the3rd–5th passages were used in this study. Gingival epithelial cells(GE)were grown from the epithelium, which was separated mechanically from the connective tissue of the excised normal gingiva.The epithelial tissue was cut into1mm3 pieces and cultured at37°C in a humidified atmosphere of air with 5%CO2in Keratinocyte Basal Medium-2(KBM-2)containing whole bovine pituitary extract,recombinant human epidermal growth fac-tor(rh EGF),insulin,hydrocortisone,transferrin,epinephrine,and gentamycin(BioWhittaker;Wokingham,UK).When individual col-onies of the outgrowth of the GE cells reached an average size of between50to200cells,they were detached using trypsin-EDTA and serially passaged.The viability of the GE cells was confirmed by trypan blue exclusion at the time of passage.The purity of the GE cell culture was ascertained by positive staining of the cells with an antibody(clone MNF116)against cytokeratins5,6,8,and17(Dako Ltd.,High Wycombe,UK)(data not shown).Cells at the2nd and3rd passages were used in this study.Treatment offibroblasts with PHT:KGF secretion.GF cells were seeded at a density of2ϫ104into24-well tissue culture plates (Falcon)and incubated until they become confluent.The medium was then replaced with fresh medium containing1%FCS for48h, after which the medium was replaced with fresh1%FCS-containing medium in the absence and presence of5and10g/ml of PHT.These concentrations were selected on the basis of posttherapeutic serum levels(19).A sample of the supernatant was removed from each of three replicate wells on each of4subsequent days of incubation, centrifuged at13,000rpm for1min and stored atϪ20°C.The amount of KGF secreted by the cells into the culture medium was measured by ELISA,as described previously(20).Briefly,96-well microtitre plates(Immulon4)(Dynex Technologies,Inc.,Chan-tilly,VA)were coated with5g/ml of a mouse monoclonal antibody (mAb)against human KGF(preparation number IG4)(Amgen Inc., Thousand Oaks,CA)in carbonate-bicarbonate buffer(pH9.6)and incubated at4°C overnight.The wells were washed three times with phosphate buffer saline(PBS)containing0.1%Tween20(PBS-T) (BDH)and nonspecific protein binding sites were blocked using200l of PBS containing1%(w/v)bovine serum albumin(BSA)(BDH) for1h at room temperature.After washing,100l of the culturesupernatants to be tested were added to three replicate wells and incubated for2h at room temperature.The washing step was re-peated and biotinylated mAb against human KGF(preparation num-ber A1)(Amgen),diluted to20ng/ml in PBS containing0.2%BSA and0.02%Tween20,was added for30min at room temperature. The plates were washed again and the binding of the biotinylated mAb was detected by incubation with a1:1000dilution of extravidin-peroxidase(Sigma),for30min at room temperature,followed by incubation with100l of3,3Ј,5,5Ј-tetramethyl-benzidine(ICN Bio-medicals,Costa Mesa,CA)in0.1M citrate-phosphate buffer(pH5.0) containing0.03%hydrogen peroxide(Sigma)for30min at37°C.The reaction was terminated by the addition of50l of2M H2SO4and the absorbance at450nm measured spectrophotometrically(Titer-tek Multiskan Plus,Helsinki,Finland).The concentration of KGF in the supernatant was calculated from a standard curve constructed by using between0.31and5.00ng/ml of recombinant human KGF (Amgen)in complete medium containing1%FCS.The results shown are derived from the average of three replicate wells for each time point in each experiment.Flow cytometry(FCM)analysis of KGFR expression by GE cells. GE cells were grown in25cm2tissue cultureflasks to80%confluency in KBM-2and then for48h in the absence of rh EGF.The medium was then replaced by fresh medium without EGF incubated in the absence and presence of10g/ml of PHT for3days and the cells prepared for FCM as described previously(21).Briefly,the cells were detached using20mM EDTA in PBS,centrifuged andfixed with3% paraformaldehyde.Aliquots of105cells were stained with an affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal antibody against human KGFR/ FGFR-2(C-17)(Santa Cruz Biotechnology,CA)for1h at room temperature and washed with PBS containing saponin,to permea-bilise the cells,and sodium azide(wash buffer).They were then incubated withfluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-labelled swine anti-rabbit antibody(Dako).Cells incubated with only secondary antibody were used as negative control.The averagefluorescence intensity(AFI)was measured using a FACScanflow cytometer(Bec-ton Dickinson,Oxford,UK).The experiments were carried out twice using each of thefive cell lines.Extraction of RNA and RT-PCR analysis of KGF and KGFR.The GF and GE cells were incubated in the absence and presence of PHT for3days,as described above.The cells were harvested using trypsin-EDTA and total RNA isolated as described previously(22). The RNA was measured by absorbance at260nm using an Ultrospec 2000spectrophotometer(Pharmacia Biotech,Cambridge,UK).Pro-tein contamination of the RNA preparations was assessed by mea-suring the absorbance at280nm.Thefirst strand of cDNA was synthesized from the total RNA using an oligonucleotide(oligo dT)primer(Promega,Madison,WI) and cloned Moloney murine leukaemia virus reverse transcriptase (Stratagene,Cambridge,UK).The resulting cDNA prepared from RNA extracted from the GF and GE cells were amplified using primer pairs specific for the KGF and KGFR genes,respectively.The primer pair used to amplifying KGF cDNA had the sequences[tct gtc gaa cac agt ggt acc t]and[gtg tgt cca ttt agt tga tgc at]for the forward and reverse direction,respectively,generating an expected PCR product of266bp(23).The primer pair used for amplification of KGFR cDNA was[tcg ggg ata aat agt ttc caa tg]and[ctg ttt tgg cag gac agt ga]for the forward and reverse direction,respectively,and generates a PCR product of141bp(6).In addition,the housekeeping gene glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase(GAPDH)was am-plified at the same time and under the same PCR conditions as those for KGF and KGFR.The expression of the GAPDH gene is consid-ered to be constitutive and was used in this study as an internal standard for estimating the relative level of KGF and KGFR mRNA.The primer sequences used for amplification of the GAPDH cDNA,as used in previous study,was [cca ccc atg gca tcc cat ggc a]and [ctg gac ggc agg tca ggt cca cc]for the forward and reverse direction,respec-tively,generating a product of 600bp (23).All three pairs of primers used in this study were obtained from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech (Amersham,UK).All PCR reactions were carried out within a linear range (25and 30cycles for KGF and KGFR,respectively),as initially determined by PCR amplification in 5-cycle steps,from 15to 40cycles (data not shown).The amplification programme consisted of initial denatur-ation at 96°C for 3min,followed by repeated cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 30s,annealing at 60°C for 30s,extension at 72°C for 90s,and final extension at 72°C for 10min.The amplified PCR products were identified by comparing the electrophoretic mobility of the predicted product with that of a 100bp DNA size marker (Helena Biosciences Ltd.,Sunderland,UK).The PCR reaction was repeated twice for each sample with different RNA from each separate tissue culture experiment.To determine the relative amount of KGF mRNA transcripts present in each sample,the intensities of the KGF and GAPDH PCR bands in the same lane of each gel were measured using the Scion Image Software Programme (Scion Corporation,Frederick,MD).The intensity of the amplified GAPDH product was taken as the baseline value and the ratio of the KGF band to the GAPDH band intensity in each sample was calculated.These ratios were used as a measure of the relative expression of KGF mRNA in each of the samples,which is shown as a KGF expression index (KFI):KFI ϭintensity of KGF band/intensity of GAPDH band ϫ100.Further,the KFI of each PHT-treated cell sample was compared with the KFI of the control cells and expressed as the KFI relative to the control.The relative amount of KGFR transcripts in each sample was measured in a similar way as that of the KGF transcripts and calculated as the KGFR expression index (KRI).The KRI of each PHT-treated cell sample was compared with the KRI of the control cells and expressed as the KRI relative to the control.DNA sequencing.The amplified PCR products were purified from the agarose gels by using the QIAquick gel extraction kit (QIAGEN Ltd.,West Sussex,UK)and amplified using the forward primer of each of the primer pairs used to amplify KGF and KGFR cDNA and the DNA sequencing kit (Applied Biosystem,Warrington,UK).The amplified product was then analysed by capillary electrophoresis using the automatic ABI PRISM DNA sequencing analysis software (310Genetic analyzer)(Perkin Elmer,Cambridge,UK).The nucle-otide sequence obtained was compared with the sequence submittedoriginally for the KGF (Accession No.M25295)(24)and KGFR gene (Accession No.M80634)(6).Statistical analysis.The data were analysed by using a paired two-tailed Student’s t test.Values of P Յ0.05were considered as statistically significant.RESULTSCellular reaction to PHT.The characteristic elon-gated,spindle-shaped morphology of GF cells was maintained even after incubation for 7days in the presence of 5and 10g/ml of PHT.In addition,when the cells were stained with trypan blue to evaluate their viability,no deleterious effect of the drug was detectable (data not shown).PHT was also observed to be similarly nontoxic and to have no apparently detri-mental effect on the GE cells.Effect of PHT on KGF secretion.ELISA assay of the culture media of the control and PHT-treated GF cells was carried out to determine the effects of PHT on KGF secretion during 4days of culture,as shown in Fig.1.Relatively low levels of KGF were present in the su-pernatants of the control cultures (average of 1.18Ϯ0.09ng/ml;range 0.78to 1.47ng/ml).In marked con-trast,much greater amounts of KGF were secreted into the culture media of cells incubated with PHT,reach-ing maximum levels on day 3with both drug concen-trations (1.95Ϯ0.33ng/ml;range 1.48to 1.99ng/ml and 2.66Ϯ0.39ng/ml;range 1.97to 2.66ng/ml,with 5g/ml and 10g/ml of PHT,respectively).A greater amount of KGF secretion was observed at all time periods at the concentration of 10g/ml compared with 5g/ml of PHT.The amount of KGF secretion induced by PHT,rel-ative to the control cultures,is shown in Table 1.The maximum relative levels of KGF secretion were on day 1,and were 1.9and 2.5times greater than the control level with 5and 10g/ml of PHT,respectively.Effect of PHT on KGF gene transcription.In order to determine whether the elevated levels of KGF

in-creased transcription of the respective gene,semi-quantitative PCR was carried out using GAPDH as the internal control,as described under Materials and Methods.Figure 2shows a representative gel and the corresponding image analysis profiles of the RT-PCR products of GF cells cultured in the absence and pres-ence of PHT.All the samples showed the single band corresponding to the predicted molecular size of the GAPDH gene sequence (600bp),confirming that the RNA extracted from the samples was intact and not degraded.In addition to this GAPDH band,the band corresponding to the KGF gene sequence (266bp)was observed in the control as well as the PHT-treated cells.The surface areas of the histograms obtained from image analysis of the GAPDH and KGF band intensities were considered to be equivalent to the lev-els of the respective mRNAs in the samples.The rela-tive expression of KGF gene transcripts,defined as the KFI,was calculated from these histogram profiles.The KFI values obtained in this representative experiment were 19for the control cells and 28and 47for the cells treated with 5and 10g/ml of PHT,respectively (1.5and 2.4times the control level,respectively).The overall average KFI for the five control cell line in duplicate experiments was found to be 17Ϯ3(range 6to 34),whereas cells incubated with 5and 10g/ml of PHT produced KFI values of 26Ϯ6(range 11to 58)and 34Ϯ8(range 14to 75),respectively.Thus,incu-bation of GF cells in the presence of 5and 10g/ml of PHT up-regulated the activity of the KGF gene by approximately 150and 200%,respectively,and these differences were statistically significant (P Ͻ0.05).Effect of PHT on KGFR expression.To examine the effect of PHT on KGFR expression,the GE cells were immunostained with antibody specific for FGFreceptor-2and analysed by FCM,as described under Materials and Methods.Representative fluorescence pro-files of KGFR expression are shown in Fig.3and dem-onstrate that the relative level of this antigen in the PHT-treated cells was 180%higher than in the control cells (AFI values of 202and 115,respectively).In ten experiments using five cell lines in duplicate,the average relative level of KGFR expression in the PHT-treated cells was calculated to be 161Ϯ22(range 66to 200)using 10g/ml of PHT,which was 1.5times the control level (AFI of 100Ϯ15;range 49to 139).This difference was found to be statistically significant (P Ͻ0.05).Effect of PHT on KGFR gene transcription.A rep-resentative PCR gel of KGFR and the image analysis profiles are shown in Fig. 4.Integrity of the RNA samples was shown by the presence of the single band of the GAPDH gene sequence (600bp).A band corre-sponding to the KGFR gene sequence (141bp)was also observed in both the control and PHT-treated cells.The image analysis profiles of the relative intensities of the GAPDH and KGFR bands,expressed as the KRI,indicated that the KRI value in the PHT-treated cells was higher than in the control cells (64and 43,respectively).The overall KRI of ten experiments using five cell lines in duplicate was found to be 42Ϯ6(range 19to 70)with 10g/ml of PHT,whereas it was 28Ϯ4(range 16to 43)in the control cells.Thus,incubation of the GE cells in the presence of PHT up-regulated the activity of the KGFR gene by approximately 150%,although this difference was not statistically significant (P Ͼ0.05).Specificity of PCR products.The nucleotide se-quences obtained from the DNA sequencing PCR of KGF and KGFR were identical to the previously re-ported sequences for KGF (22)and KGFR (6),thusFIG.2.Effects of PHT on KGF gene transcription in GF cells.A representative experiment showing the RT-PCR analysis of the GF cells cultured in the absence and presence of 5and 10g/ml of PHT

KGFR mRNA in this study (data not shown).DISCUSSIONWound healing is a complex series of cellular and molecular events which include inflammation,cell mi-gration,angiogenesis,matrix remodelling,and reepi-thelialisation.These entail the coordinated functions of many types of cell,including keratinocytes,fibroblasts,endothelial,and inflammatory cells,and are closely regulated by growth factors and cytokines.Reepitheli-alisation,involving keratinocyte migration and prolif-eration,is considered to be one of the major features of wound healing.KGF has been shown to enhance the migration and proliferation of keratinocytes (4,25)and is also involved in matrix remodelling (26).It is notable that KGF is involved not only in reepithelialisation during wound healing,but also in destruction of reac-tive oxygen species in keratinocytes by induction of glutathione peroxidase,thereby protecting the epider-mis from oxidative injury due to free radicals (27).The cellular events that occur during wound healing are also modulated by various pharmacological agents,including PHT.PHT is a widely used anti-epileptic drug,although it has a wide range of pharmacologic effects in addition to its anti-epileptic activity.Its pri-mary site of action appears to be within the motor cortex,where the spread of seizure activity is inhibited by a membrane potential-dependent blockade of Na ϩchannels and perhaps presynaptic Ca ϩchannels (28).However,PHT was also found to have a secondary therapeutic role in promoting the wound healing which accompanies the occurrence of gingival hyperplasia that affects approximately 50%of patients taking this drug (29).Subsequently,a number of clinical trials have provided evidence of an increased rate of repair with reduced oedema and inflammation and enhanced formation of granulation tissue following the topical application of PHT to cutaneous wounds (13,14,16,17).Since KGF and KGFR signalling events havebeenFIG.3.Effects of PHT on KGFR expression

arbitrarily on the histograms to indicate the mean AFI value of the KGFR positive cells in the control culture (115).Note that the profile of PHT-treated cells has shifted to right side of the vertical line,indicating a higher level of KGFR expres-sion in PHT-treated cells (AFI of 202).The dashed lines represent the profiles of the negative control cells in

electrophoretic mobility of the RT-PCR products and the corresponding image analysis of these bands:A,control cultures;B,PHT-treated cultures.Note the presence of GAPDH bands (600bp)of similar intensity in both panels.The KRI values obtained from this representative experiment are 43and 64for the control and PHT-treated cells,respectively.strongly implicated in the remodelling of damaged ep-ithelial tissue in vivo(7–9),in the present study we have examined whether PHT up-regulates this growth factor and its receptor in vitro.Ourfindings demonstrate,for thefirst time,that PHT significantly increases KGF secretion and KGF gene transcription by GF cells.The reason for the wide variation which we found in KGF response is unclear, but may be related to the differential uptake,metabo-lism and binding of PHT to gingival cells obtained from different individuals(15).Although the precise effects of PHT on these cells has yet to be delineated,the up-regulation of KGF by PHT may be mediated via other growth factors,inflammatory mediators,hor-mones,and hormone antagonists which have been shown to regulate KGF expression in vitro and during wound healing in vivo(11,30–35).It is notable that recent studies have identified an-other member of the FGF family having a high degree of structural homology with KGF.However,unlike the original KGF studied here(KGF-1),this new growth factor,KGF-2,is mitogenic forfibroblasts as well as epithelial cells and has been shown to be involved in wound healing processes in vivo(36).Since the PCR primers and antibodies used in this study are specific for KGF-1,further studies are required to determine whether KGF-2is also modulated by PHT.KGFR has also been implicated in wound reepithe-lialisation,by signal transduction following the bind-ing of KGF(6).In addition,severe delay in the wound healing process has been reported in transgenic KGFR knockout mice(12).In the present study we used FCM to determine whether PHT also affected the expression of the KGFR.Although this technique measures rela-tive antigen levels,it is nevertheless proportional to the actual number of antigen molecules present in or on the cells(37).Moreover,the polyclonal antibody used for immunostaining of the GE cells was directed against the intracellular domain of the FGF receptor-2 which is present in the KGFR splice variant expressed by epithelial cells only(6).Furthermore,the GE cells were confirmed to be of epithelial lineage by positive staining for cytokeratins,as noted under Materials and Methods.However,their characteristic slow growth and short life span in primary culture limited the use of more than one concentration of PHT for measuring the KGFR response,in contrast to the KGF response by the more rapidly-growing and longer-lived GF cells. Ourfindings have demonstrated that relatively higher KGFR levels are expressed by the PHT-treated cells compared with the control GE cells,thereby providing increased KGFR availability to form biologically active complexes with KGF which could enhance reepitheli-alisation of PHT-treated wounds in vivo.As with KGF, however,while the precise mechanisms involved in the regulation of KGFR have yet to be identified,the ex-pression of this receptor is clearly subject to the influ-ence of growth factors and inflammatory cytokines which are expressed during the wound healing process (38).In conclusion,our study has shown that PHT in-duces both KGF and the KGFR at the protein level and also up-regulates the activity of the corresponding genes in vitro,suggesting the possibility that the action of PHT in wound healing in vivo may also be mediated at least partly via KGF and the KGFR.

Methods Rats were divided into 3 groups (n =6) : intralipid control group and propofol groups (PI =1. 00mg/kg, P2 = 1.70mg/kg). To assess the psychic dependence of propofol, the technique of intravenous self - administration by rats was utilized. The expression of p - ERK/ERK in Nac was detected by Western blotting. Results All the rats trained with propofol at dose 1. 00mg/kg and 1.7mg/kg showed self - administration behavior. Compared to PI group, the number of active nose -poke response and injections of P2 group increased significantly (P <0. 01). Further, changed of propofol, the expression of p - ERK/ERK in nucleus accumbens was dose - dependent increased (P < 0.01). Conclusion The data suggested that propofol - maintained self - administration increase the expression of p - ERK in Nac, and the ERK signal Pathway maybe involve in psychic dependence of propofol.%目的观察异丙酚静脉自身给药对大鼠伏隔核内p - ERK表达的影响.方法SD大鼠随机分为3组(n=6):对照组(C组)、1.00mg/kg异丙酚组(P1组)、1.70mg/kg异丙酚组(P2组).用静脉自身给药法建立异丙酚精神依赖模型,Western blotting法检测大鼠伏隔核内p- ERK和ERK的变化.结果 P1组、P2组的异丙酚可以诱发大鼠建立静脉自身给药行为.与P1组相比,P2组大鼠有效鼻触(P<0.01)和注射次数(P<0.01)明显增加.随着异丙酚剂量的增加,大鼠伏隔核内p- ERK/ERK的表达明显增加(P<0.01).结论异丙酚静脉自身给药增加了大鼠伏隔核内p- ERK的表达,ERK信号转导通路可能参与了异丙酚的精神依赖性.【总页数】3页(P39-41)【作者】王本福;张富强;连庆泉;杨博;孙安娜;黄茜茜;金胜威;李军;赖苗军;周文华;刘惠芬【作者单位】325027 温州医学院附属二院麻醉科、麻醉神经内分泌研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;325027 温州医学院附属二院麻醉科、麻醉神经内分泌研究所;325027 温州医学院附属二院麻醉科、麻醉神经内分泌研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;325027 温州医学院附属二院麻醉科、麻醉神经内分泌研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所;315010 宁波,微循环与莨菪类药研究所【正文语种】中文【相关文献】1.有氧游泳运动对吗啡精神依赖大鼠伏隔核中内阿片肽表达水平的影响 [J], 于动震;苏彦炬;柳新海;霍少华2.有氧游泳运动对吗啡精神依赖大鼠伏隔核中内阿片肽表达水平的影响 [J], 于动震;苏彦炬;柳新海;霍少华3.毁损伏隔核对吗啡给药大鼠条件性位置偏爱与脑功能的影响 [J], 邵云;魏孝琴;薛一雪4.吗啡急性给药对大鼠伏隔核中神经甾体水平的影响 [J], 吴红海;王娜;侯艳宁5.安君宁对吗啡依赖大鼠伏隔核内前阿黑皮素原表达的影响 [J], 谌红献;郝伟;刘铁桥;王绪轶;向小军;蔡溢因版权原因,仅展示原文概要,查看原文内容请购买。

growth and the speed with which it occurs, since this has a beneficial effect on the longevity of the prosthesis (ENGH et al., 1987; KEAVENYand BARTEL, 1995). Hydroxyapatite (HAP) ceramic coatings are bioactive coatings which have demonstrated their ability to increase the development and the extension of bone (GEESINK al., et 1987) in non-cemented endoprostheses, achieving a strong bond in a relatively short period of time (GEESINK et al., 1987; SOBALLE et al., 1993), even under load (SOBALLE et al., 1990). The addition of certain substances to the HAP in order to increase osteoblastic activity and promote osteogenesis is currently under study (ONO et al., 1990; SATO et al., 1991; NAKAMURAet al., 1998). Following in this direction, the angiogenic and fibrogenic activity shown by the fibrin adhesive (SAF - Tissucol Inmuno ) may indicate the ability to increase osteoinduction. However, the influence of SAF as stimulant to osteogenesis is subject to debate. Some authors have found a beneficial effect of fibrin in wound repair (Albrektsson et al., 1982), in the repair of bone defects in Plastic and Reconstructive maxillofacial surgery in humans (BONUCCI et al., 1997; FORTUNATO et al., 1997), in the fixation of osteochondral fractures in dog femurs (KELLERet al., 1985), and in accelerating the repair process and new bone formation in bone defects of the proximal metaphysis of rats (ONO et al., 1990) and rabbits (SATo et al., 1991; NAKAMURAet al., 1998). Also, Ig~ANIAet al. (1998) reported benefitious effects when fibrin was added to coral implants compared to coral alone group in an experimental study carried out in rabbits. However, other authors have not found any stimulatory effect of fibrin and have observed a higher soft tissue development with a reduction in the bonding to bone in ceramic implants used to fill femoral defects in rabbits (RECK and BERNAL-SPREKELSEN, 1989). Another study found no significant increase in the blood supply nor in bone formation in a standardised defect of both tibiae filled with autologous graft material from the iliac crest in dogs (LuCH7 et al., 1986). Another study domonstrate a reduction in heterotopic osteoinduction in the abdominal musculature of rats (PINHOLTet al., 1992). At the current knowlegde, fibrin used alone in the fractures produces a retard allograft fusion mass formation (JARZEM et al., 1996); fibrin used as a carrier of inductive cytokines produces a higher yields of new bone (SATo et al., 1991); and fibrin used in a mixture containing apatite-wollastonite and glass ceramic granules (ONo et al., 1990), heterologous cancellous transplants (Bosh et al., 1980) or hydroxyapatite implants (BoNuccI et al., 1997) produced also a higher osteoinductive properties. However, the precise role that fibrin plays in these process is unclear. Thus, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of the addition of SAF to HAP-coated titanium (Ti) implants on osteogenesis using radiographical and histo-morphometrical evaluations in a controlled rabbit model.
Key words: Hydroxyapatite, fibrin, rabbit model, coatting implants.
Introduction
Bone ingrowth in non-cemented implants takes place in humans and small animals. However, analysis of retrieved implants has shown great variation in the degree of bone growth, varying in porous coatings from 10% (COLLIER et al., 1988) to 50% (PIDHORZ et al., 1993). Thus, irrespective of the influence of certain variables (implant design, age, metabolic state of the bone, etc.), research into biological fixation seems to be focussing on a number of agents which, when added to the surface of the implant, favour bone
Summary
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the addition of fibrin (SAF) to titanium alloy implants coated with hydroxyapatite (HAP) on osteogenesis in rabbits. A titanium (Ti) alloy implant was inserted into the femoral neck of twenty-four adult rabbits. Six rabbits were included on each of the following groups: Tile, HAP-coated Ti module with added fibrin glue and Ti module also with added fibrin glue. After seven weeks, bone growth was examined radiographically and by histo-morphometry. The SAF/HAP mixture did caused to a significant increase in bone growth compared to the other groups. The addition of fibrin did not result in an increase in new-bone growth and increase the formation of fibroustissue in contact with the implant. We concluded that SAF did not demonstrate osteoinductive properties.
