Abstract
Solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries have shown prospects as safe, high-energy electrochemical storage technology for powering regional electrified transportation. Owing to limited ion mobility in crystalline polymer electrolytes, the battery is incapable of operating at subzero temperature. Addition of liquid plasticizer into the polymer electrolyte improves the Li-ion conductivity yet sacrifices the mechanical strength and interfacial stability with both electrodes. In this work, we showed that by introducing a spherical hyperbranched solid polymer plasticizer into a Li+ -conductive linear polymer matrix, an integrated dynamic cross-linked polymer network was built to maintain fully amorphous in a wide temperature range down to subzero. A quasi-solid polymer electrolyte with a solid mass content >90 % was prepared from the cross-linked polymer network, and demonstrated fast Li+ conduction at a low temperature, high mechanical strength, and stable interfacial chemistry. As a result, solid-state lithium-sulfur batteries employing the new electrolyte delivered high reversible capacity and long cycle life at 25 °C, 0 °C and -10 °C to serve energy storage at complex environmental conditions.

Abstract
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have great potential for large-scale energy storage. Cellulose is an attractive material for sustainable separators, but some key issues still exist affecting its application. Herein, a cellulose-based composite separator (CP@PPC) was prepared by immersion curing of cellulose-based separators (CP) with poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC). With the assistance of PPC, the CP@PPC separator is able to operate the cell stably at high voltages (up to 4.95 V). The "pore-hopping" ion transport mechanism in CP@PPC opens up extra Na+ migration paths, resulting in a high Na+ transference number (0.613). The separator can also tolerate folding, bending and extreme temperature under certain circumstances. Full cells with CP@PPC reveal one-up capacity retention (96.97 %) at 2C after 500 cycles compared to cells with CP. The mechanism highlights the merits of electrolyte analogs in separator modification, making a rational design for durable devices in advanced energy storage systems.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have received increased interest in recent years as an advanced class of materials. By virtue of the available monomers, multiple conformations and various linkages, COFs offer a wide range of opportunities for complex structural design and specific functional development of materials, which has facilitated the widespread application in many fields, including multi-valent metal ion batteries (MVMIBs), described as the attractive candidate replacing lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). With their robust skeletons, diverse pores, flexible structures and abundant functional groups, COFs are expected to help realize a high performance MVMIBs. In this review, we present an overview of COFs, describe advances in topology design and synthetic reactions, and study the application of COFs in MVMIBs, as well as discuss challenges and solutions in the preparation of COFs electrodes, in the hope of providing constructive insights into the future direction of COFs.

Abstract
In recent years, rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have shown extraordinary potential due to their safety, nontoxicity, sustainable zinc resources, and low price. However, the lack of suitable cathode materials hinders the development of ZIBs. Recently, layered phosphates have been widely used as cathode materials. As one typical phosphate cathode, vanadium oxyphosphate (VOPO4) has inherently low electronic conductivity and structural dissolution in electrochemical reactions, limiting its development. To solve these problems, VOPO4/C is prepared by combining multifunctional carbon material with a VOPO4 interlayer and an external surface, which not only improves the electronic conductivity of the composite material but also effectively inhibits the dissolution of VOPO4 in the electrolyte. As a result, the prepared VOPO4/C could deliver a reversible capacity of 140 mA h g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1. Furthermore, the rate performance of the VOPO4/C composite has also been improved significantly. In the process of charging and discharging, zinc ions in the composite show perfect intercalate and deintercalate performance.

Abstract
Lithium (Li) metal has been considered to be the most promising anode material for next-generation rechargeable batteries. Unfortunately, the hazards induced by dendrite growth and volume fluctuation hinder its commercialized application. Here, a three-dimensional (3D) current collector composed of a vertically aligned Cu2O nanowire that is tightly coated with a polydopamine protective layer is developed to solve the encountered issues of lithium metal batteries (LMBs). The Cu2O nanowire arrays (Cu2O NWAs) provide abundant lithiophilic sites for inducing Li nucleation selectively to form a thin Li layer around the nanowires and direct subsequent Li deposition. The well-defined nanochannel works well in confining the Li growth spatially and buffering the volume change during the repeated cycling. The PDA coatings adhered onto the outline of the Cu2O NWAs serve as the artificial solid electrolyte interface to isolate the electrode and electrolyte and retain the interfacial stability. Moreover, the increased specific area of copper foam (CF) can dissipate the local current density and further suppress the growth of Li dendrites. As a result, CF@Cu2O NWAs@PDA realizes a dendrite-free morphology and the assembled symmetrical batteries can work stably for over 1000 h at 3 mA cm-2. When CF@Cu2O NWAs@PDA is coupled with a LiFePO4 cathode, the full cells exhibit improved cycle stability and rate performance.

Abstract
Covalent organic frameworks (COF) possess a robust and porous crystalline structure, making them an appealing candidate for energy storage. Herein, we report an exfoliated polyimide COF composite (P-COF@SWCNT) prepared by an in situ condensation of anhydride and amine on the single-walled carbon nanotubes as advanced anode for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Numerous active sites exposed on the exfoliated frameworks and the various open pathways promote the highly efficient ion diffusion in the P-COF@SWCNT while preventing irreversible dissolution in the electrolyte. During the charging/discharging process, K+ is engaged in the carbonyls of imide group and naphthalene rings through the enolization and π-K+ effect, which is demonstrated by the DFT calculation and XPS, ex-situ FTIR, Raman. As a result, the prepared P-COF@SWCNT anode enables an incredibly high reversible specific capacity of 438 mA h g-1 at 0.05 A g-1 and extended stability. The structural advantage of P-COF@SWCNT enables more insights into the design and versatility of COF as an electrode.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the migration of the HIV/AIDS cases and related factors in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture (Liangshan). Methods: According to HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information Management System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention, a total of 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases who had follow-up records in Liangshan in 2020 were included in the survey. The migration of the HIV/AIDS cases was described and the related factors were analyzed using multiple logistic regression models, and the migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases were mapped. Results: Among the 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases, 20.89% (6 010/28 772) had migration in 2020. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that among the HIV/AIDS cases, the migration related factors included being aged 15-24 years (compared with being aged 0-14 years, OR=2.74, 95%CI:2.04-3.69) and ethnic group (compared with Han ethnic group, OR=2.44, 95%CI:2.19-2.72), having education level of junior high school (compared with having education level of primary school or below, OR=1.25, 95%CI:1.14-1.38), being unmarried (compared with being married, OR=1.29, 95%CI:1.20-1.39), being engaged in business services (compared with being engaged in farming, OR=1.96, 95%CI:1.31-2.92), receiving antiviral treatment <1 year (compared with receiving antiviral treatment >3 years, OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.26-1.61), having recent CD4+T lymphocytes (CD4) counts >500 cells/μl (compared with having recent CD4 counts <200 cells/μl, OR=1.15, 95%CI:1.03-1.29). The geographical distribution maps showed that among all cities in Sichuan, Xichang (13.26%, 797/6 010) and Chengdu (10.12%,608/6 010) were the main migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases, and the provinces outside Sichuan where the HIV/AIDS cases would like to migrate to were mainly Guangdong (18.19%, 1 093/6 010) and Zhejiang provinces (7.67%, 461/6 010) in 2020. The HIV/AIDS cases who migrated where Liangshan, within Sichuan province, and to other provinces accounted for 27.67% (1 663/6 010), 15.34% (922/6 010) and 56.99% (3 425/6 010), respectively. Conclusions: More attention should be paid to the mobility characteristics and the classification management of HIV/AIDS cases according to their characteristics in Liangshan. Timely access to information on changes in the place of work and residence of HIV/AIDS cases should be warranted when they have migration. Good referrals and management for mobility of HIV/AIDS cases in different places should be made to reduce loss to follow-up and improving interventions.

Abstract
A new metal-organic framework {(Me2NH2)2[Co3(μ3-O)(btb)2(py)(H2O)]·(DMF)2(H2O)2}n (Cobtbpy) was solvothermal synthesized (H3btb = 1,3,5-tri(4-carboxylphenyl)benzene, py = pyridine, DMF = N,N-dimethylformamide). Cobtbpy shows a (3,6)-connected rtl 3D network with a point symbol of (4·62)2(42·610·83) based on the [Co3(μ3-O)] clusters. The obtained Cobtbpy has stable, accessible, dense active sites and can be applied in the potassium- and sodium-ion batteries. Through mixing with single-walled carbon nanotubes, the prepared composite anode material Cobtbpy-0.9 achieved a high reversible capability, delivering 416 mAh/g in the potassium-ion batteries and 379 mAh/g in the sodium-ion batteries at 0.05 A/g. The outstanding properties of Cobtbpy-0.9 in the batteries demonstrated that this MOFs-based carbon composite is a highly desirable electrode material candidate for high-performance potassium- and sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
As the power supply of the prosperous new energy products, advanced lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are widely applied to portable energy equipment and large-scale energy storage systems. To broaden the applicable range, considerable endeavours have been devoted towards improving the energy and power density of LIBs. However, the side reaction caused by the close contact between the electrode (particularly the cathode) and the electrolyte leads to capacity decay and structural degradation, which is a tricky problem to be solved. In order to overcome this obstacle, the researchers focused their attention on electrolyte additives. By adding additives to the electrolyte, the construction of a stable cathode-electrolyte interphase (CEI) between the cathode and the electrolyte has been proven to competently elevate the overall electrochemical performance of LIBs. However, how to choose electrolyte additives that match different cathode systems ideally to achieve stable CEI layer construction and high-performance LIBs is still in the stage of repeated experiments and exploration. This article specifically introduces the working mechanism of diverse electrolyte additives for forming a stable CEI layer and summarizes the latest research progress in the application of electrolyte additives for LIBs with diverse cathode materials. Finally, we tentatively set forth recommendations on the screening and customization of ideal additives required for the construction of robust CEI layer in LIBs. We believe this minireview will have a certain reference value for the design and construction of stable CEI layer to realize desirable performance of LIBs.

Abstract
Previous studies have reported that green tea effectively protects against cancers caused by various dietary carcinogens. As P450 enzymes are the major system responsible for the metabolism of many carcinogens, we hypothesise that tea consumption may alter the catalytic activities of P450 enzymes. We conducted this study to screen the effects of four different teas on the activities of P450 enzymes. Tea solutions (2.5%) were prepared by adding boiling water to tea leaves and filtering. Female Wistar rats were divided into five groups (n = 4 each); each had free access to tea solutions while the control group was supplied with water for 4 weeks. Animals were sacrificed and livers were removed for preparation of microsomes. Enzyme activities were determined by incubation of liver microsomes with the appropriate CYP substrate. The activity of CYP1A1 in livers from rats receiving Oolong (Chinese) tea (185 +/- 63 pmol/mg/min), Japanese green tea (197 +/- 22 pmol/mg/min) and Earl Grey tea (228 +/- 40 pmol/mg/min) was significantly higher (p < 0.05) than in the control group (94 +/- 34 pmol/mg/min), whereas no change was observed in the activity of CYP1A2 in any of tested animals. The hepatic activity of CYP2D6 was greater only in rats drinking Earl Grey tea compared to the controls (235 +/- 37 vs 161 +/- 41 pmol/mg/min, p < 0.05). There were also significant increases (p < 0.05) in the activity of CYP3A in livers of animals given Oolong tea (653 +/- 174 vs 382 +/- 114 pmol/mg/min) and Earl Grey tea (751 +/- 202 pmol/mg/min), while Jasmine and Japanese green tea had no significant effect. These results indicate that not all types of tea cause alterations in liver CYP enzymes as some elevated activities and some did not. Further studies are needed to determine whether there is a relationship between the effect of tea on CYP activities and anti-carcinogenesis.

Abstract
It is now possible to detect quantitative changes in cytochrome aa3 by means of near-infrared spectrophotometry. This technique is also suitable for determining oxidised hemoglobin (HbO2), reduced hemoglobin (Hb), cerebral blood volume, and the redox state of cytochrome aa3 (cyt aa3) in the tissues. The significance of elevated cyt aa3, measured by near-infrared spectrophotometry, is still unclear, so we investigated this question using both near-infrared spectrophotometry and oxygen saturation meters in endotoxemic dogs. Ten anaesthetised mongrel dogs were injected with endotoxin (E. coli 0111: B4 Difco 2 mg/kg i.v.) and the redox state of Hb and cyt aa3 was determined in real time by near-infrared spectrophotometry. The levels of arterial and cisternal venous oxygen saturation were recorded simultaneously by two Oximetrix 3 saturation meters to calculate the cerebral arterial and venous oxygen saturation difference (Sata-vO2D) in real time. HbO2 decreased along with the fall in mean arterial pressure and remained at a low level, while Hb increased and remained at a high level. The cerebral blood volume decreased in the endotoxic early stage and then returned gradually towards baseline. Cyt aa3 showed an increase following endotoxin injection and maintained an oxidised form. The cerebral Sata-vO2D rose to about three times the control level. From these observations, an increase of oxidised cytochrome aa3 after endotoxin administration seems to be a compensatory protective effect in response to the cerebral oxygen demand rather than over-oxygenation or hyperoxia.

Abstract
AIM To study the histamine H3 receptors mediated inhibition of norepinephrine (NE) release from cardiac sympathetic terminals of guinea pig isolated atria. METHODS Release of NE induced by electric field stimulation (50 mA, 5 ms) in the bath solution was measured by HPLC-ECD. RESULTS The release of NE caused by field stimulation was attenuated by (R)-alpha-methyl-histamine (alpha-MeHA, 0.1 nmol.L-1(-10) mumol.L-1) in a concentration-dependent manner. Thioperamide concentration-dependently antagonized the inhibition of alpha-MeHA. Blockade of H1, H2, alpha 2, beta 2-receptors failed to prevent the inhibitory effect of alpha-MeHA. Thioperamide (1 nmol.L-1(-10) mumol.L-1), when used alone, concentration-dependently facilitated the release of NE evoked by field stimulation. CONCLUSION The presynaptic histamine H3-receptors inhibited the NE release from cardiac sympathetic terminals.

Abstract
This is the first time to report the existence of new presynaptic inhibitory autoreceptors--histamine H3-receptors in guinea pig myocardium. We found that (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (alpha-MeHA), a selective histamine H3-receptor agonist, attenuates the sympathetic inotropic response of isolated guinea pig atria elicited by electrical field stimulation. This inhibition was associated with a marked reduction in endogenous norepinephrine release. The above phenomenon was antagonised by selective histamine H3-receptor antagonists, and inhibited by pretreatment with N ethylmeleimide. The cardiac sympathetic response could be attenuated or facilitated by increase or decrease of endogenous histamine. Our findings indicate that the endogenous histamine might be involved in the modulation of cardiac sympathetic neurotransmission by interacting with histamine H3-receptors and the receptors are probably coupled to a G(o)/Gi protein.

Abstract
Our previous study reported that 20% (1.5 ml.kg-1 hypertonic saline could significantly improve the disturbances of cerebral oxidative metabolism induced by hemorrhagic hypotension in dogs. The aim of the present study is to evaluate if 7.5% hypertonic saline induces circulatory improvement. Ten dogs were randomly divided into two groups of 5 each resuscitated with either physiological saline as control or 7.5% hypertonic saline (4 ml.kg-1) after their mean arterial blood pressure decreased to 35 mmHg for 45 minutes by hemorrhage. The changes of cerebral tissue oxy- and deoxyhemoglobin, cerebral blood volume (total hemoglobin), and oxy-cytochrome aa3 were continuously monitored by near infrared spectroscopy throughout the experiment. The experimental result showed that oxy-hemoglobin, oxy-cytochrome aa3, and cerebral blood volume decreased but deoxyhemoglobin increased significantly 45 minutes after hemorrhage. Treatment with 7.5% hypertonic saline significantly restored these variables except for cerebral blood volume and all the animals survived to the end of experiment. But in the control group treated with the same dose of physiological saline, the above variables improved little compared with the baseline; and all the animals died before the end of 60 min experimental observation. Therefore we conclude that 7.5% hypertonic saline (4 ml.kg-1) can also effectively improve the disturbance of cerebral oxidative metabolism induced by hemorrhagic hypotension.

Abstract
The effect of tetramethylpyrazine on ischemic neuronal damage was studied in gerbil hippocampus in the terms of histopathological change and cerebral tissue lipid peroxides. Fifteen-five Mongolian gerbils were randomly assigned to one of three groups: sham-operated as control, subjected to 12 min global cerebral ischemia followed by 7 day spontaneous circulatory reperfusion, in which animals were treated with either ip. physiological saline or 60 mg/kg of tetramethylpyrazine 30 min before ischemia and daily thereafter for 7 days. The number of survival pyramidal neurons in the CA1 was counted: 263 +/- 8 (cell/mm) in the sham-operated group, 20 +/- 6 in the ischemia group, and 189 +/- 56 in the group treated with tetramethylpyrazine. Changes in lipid peroxides, expressed as malondialdehyde (MDA), was 134.5 +/- 5.0 nmol/g tissue in the sham-operated group, 193.5 +/- 5.1 in the ischemia group, and 137.6 +/- 10.8 in the group treated with tetramethylpyrazine. These results indicate that tetramethylpyrazine has a protective effect on the ischemic neuronal damage in hippocampus. Free radicals and free calcium may play an important role in pyramidal neuron necrosis in hippocampus following cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of platelet activating factor (PAF) on the pathological changes in organs using 10 mice (C3H/HeN). Ten mice were divided into two groups of acute and chronic experiment groups. In acute experiment, each mice received iv bolus injection of PAF 2.5 micrograms.kg-1 and in chronic experiment daily ip injection of PAF 7.5 micrograms.kg-1 for 7 days. Histopathology was observed with light microscopy after one hour or after 7 days by haematoxylin and eosin stain. In acute experiment, congestion of the lung, liver, kidney and spleen in all cases, right ventricular dilation in 2 cases and villous necrosis in the small intestine in 4 cases were observed. In chronic experiment, hyaline thrombus with congestion of the lung in 3 cases and congestion of the liver and kidney in all cases were observed. Splenomegaly with increased macrophage was observed, but no necrosis in the small intestine was observed. Marked findings were villous necrosis in the small intestine in acute experiment and hyaline thrombus in the lung as well as splenomegaly in chronic experiment.

Abstract
The effects of medicinal margarite extract and recombinant human superoxide dismutase (r-h SOD) on acute paraquat intoxication were examined in the rat lung. Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley rats under pentobarbital anesthesia were randomly assigned to one of four groups receiving i.v. injection of physiological saline (control), i.v. injection of 70 mg/kg paraquat, or i.v. injection of either 50 mg/kg of margarite extract or 50,000 unit/kg of r-h SOD 10 minutes before and 1 and 2 hours after an equivalent paraquat administration. Examination of lung superoxide anion radicals (O2-.), lipid peroxides, and histopathological changes showed that paraquat significantly increased superoxide anion radicals (383% of control) reacted with CLA-phenyl. Both margarite extract and r-h SOD decreased superoxide anion radicals to 119% and 83% of control, respectively. Margarite extract, rather than r-h SOD, significantly alleviated the paraquat-induced infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and macrophages into the alveolar walls. There were no significant inter-group differences in lipid peroxides in the lung. Component analysis showed that margarite extract was rich in L- and D-arginine. The scavenging mechanism of margarite extract may be related to L-arginine but needs to be further verified in the future study.

Abstract
The influence of N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) on sympathetic neurotransmission induced by field stimulation on the isolated guinea pig vas deferens was studied. Application of (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (0.1 mcmol/l) significantly inhibited the sympathetic response by 26.0%, while thioperamide facilitated the sympathetic contraction of vas deferens evoked by field pulses by 221.1%. Pretreatment of vas deferens with NEM (60 mcmol/l) for 15 min abolished both the inhibitory and facilitatory effects. Attenuation of thioperamide facilitatory effect by NEM was not significantly altered when the H3-receptors were occupied by thioperamide prior to and during NEM treatment. The results suggest that effects mediated by H3-receptors in the guinea pig vas deferens were NEM-sensitive and possibly transmitted by Gi or Go proteins.

Abstract
Hypertonic saline used in the treatment of hemorrhagic shock dramatically improves cardiovascular performance. In the present study, our focus was on whether it would improve disturbances of cerebral oxidative metabolism induced by hemorrhagic hypotension. Fourteen dogs were bled over a period of 15 min so that the mean arterial blood pressure of seven dogs (group H) fell to 65 mmHg and that of the other seven (group L), to 45 mmHg. These pressures were maintained for 30 min, and then 20% hypertonic saline (1.5 ml/kg body weight) was injected intravenously. Cerebral oxyhemoglobin, deoxyhemoglobin, cerebral blood volume, and oxidized cytochrome aa3 were continuously monitored by near-infrared spectroscopy throughout the experiment. The experimental results showed that 45 min of hemorrhagic hypotension led to decreases in cerebral oxyhemoglobin (from control level 0 to -25.5 +/- 7.5 microM/liter brain tissue in group H and to -32.3 +/- 7.5 microM/liter brain tissue in group L), in total hemoglobin (from control level 0 to -7.2 +/- 1.8 microM/liter brain tissue in group H and to -6.5 +/- 1.7 microM/liter brain tissue in group L), and in oxidized cytochrome aa3 in group L (from control level 0 to -0.8 +/- 0.4 microM/liter brain tissue), but to increases in deoxyhemoglobin (from control level 0 to 15.5 +/- 5.0 microM/liter brain tissue in group H and to 25.8 +/- 3.4 microM/liter brain tissue in group L) and in oxidized cytochrome aa3 in group H (from control level 0 to 0.6 +/- 0.3 microM/liter brain tissue.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
This study was conducted to investigate the effect of 20% marine salt as compared with 20% NaCl solution, on the circulatory dynamics in hemorrhagic shock using mongrel dogs. Ten mongrel dogs were randomly divided into two groups. One treated with 20% marine salt, and the other treated with 20% NaCl. Modified Wigger's method was used to induce hemorrhagic shock. Hypotension was kept at 45 mmHg for 45 minutes and then 1.5 ml.kg-1 of 20% marine salt or 20% NaCl was injected intravenously in bolus. Twenty percent marine salt reduced total peripheral resistance and increased cardiac output with statistically significant difference compared with 20% NaCl. There were increases in MAP, PAP and PWP without statistic differences between the two groups. These results suggest that 20% marine salt, including various trace elements, is superior to 20% NaCl in improving cardiac output and TPR during hemorrhagic shock.

Abstract
The ciliary muscle forms a major portion of the uveoscleral aqueous outflow pathway. To gain a better understanding of the extracellular matrix of the human ciliary muscle, human ciliary muscle cell cultures at various stages of confluency were immunocytochemically compared with sections of normal ciliary muscle for the presence of collagen types I, III, and IV, fibronectin, and laminin. A pre-embedding immunostaining protocol was employed to obtain good antigen conservation and histologically well-preserved tissue. In subconfluent cultured ciliary muscle cells, collagen types I, III, and IV, fibronectin, and laminin were found intracellularly in the endoplasmic reticulum or in granules surrounding the nucleus. In confluent cells, these matrix molecules each formed characteristic extracellular networks. In normal ciliary muscle, collagen type IV, fibronectin, and laminin were found in the basement membranes around the muscle fibers and blood vessels. Collagen types I and III and fibronectin were observed in the connective tissue among the muscle bundles. Collagen type I also formed a dense band of staining around blood vessels. The biosynthesis and turnover of these glycoproteins may have important roles both in the function of the nonconventional outflow pathway and in mediating the action of certain pharmacological agents.

Abstract
The action of (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (alpha-MeHA), a selective H3-receptor agonist, on field stimulation induced contraction of guinea pig vas deferens was composed of 2 components: the "inhibition" (0.1-100 nmon.L-1) and the "enhancement" (1-10 mumol.L-1). In the presence of histamine H1 antagonist, chlorpheniramine (1 mumol.L-1), alpha-MeHA (0.1 nmol.L-1-10 mumol.L-1) showed only a concentration-dependent inhibition. Selective histamine H3-receptor antagonist, thioperamide (1 nmol.L-1-10 mumol.L-1) antagonized the inhibitory effect of alpha-MeHA and increased the contractile amplitude of vas deferens elicited by field pulses when thioperamide was used alone. alpha-MeHA 10 mumol.L-1 enhanced the contractile amplitude, which was reversed by chlorpheniramine 1 mumol.L-1, but not by ranitidine (1 mumol.L-1). Pyridelethylamine, an H1-receptor agonist, facilitated concentration-dependently the contractile response of vas deferens. The effect was antagonized by chlorpheniramine, but not by ranitidine. Dimaprit, an H2-receptor agonist had no effect on the field stimulation induced sympathetic response. Both alpha-MeHA and pyridelethylamine failed to influence the contraction of vas deferens elicited by direct field stimulation in smooth muscle or by exogenously applied norepinephrine. It was concluded that histamine H1- and H3-receptors existed in sympathetic terminals of guinea pig vas deferens and facilitated or inhibited the sympathetic neurotransmission.

Abstract
The cardiodynamic effects of using hypertonic saline solution were analyzed in dogs after inducing hemorrhagic shock. Administration of 1.5 mL/kg 20% sodium chloride resulted in circulatory improvement: 200% increase in blood pressure, 260% increase in cardiac output, 60-70% increase in pulmonary arterial pressure, 66% increase in pulmonary wedge pressure, 200% increase in central venous pressure, 33% decrease in total peripheral resistance, and 40% decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance. The effects of sodium chloride on cardiodynamics probably resulted in elevation of preload and reduction of afterload.

Abstract
This study attempts to gain a better understanding of the primary cause of doxorubicin myotoxicity to aid in the development of a protocol to increase its effectiveness in treating muscle spasm diseases. The time course of acute injury to the orbicularis oculi muscle after injection of doxorubicin into the eyelids of rabbits was examined. The effects of doxorubicin injection were immediate and dramatic. Within 5 minutes, the muscle cells in the eyelids showed signs of myofibrillar dissolution. This process continued for the first 24 hours, with a marked decrease in the total number of myofibers by 1 hour after drug treatment. By 4 days after doxorubicin injection, most of the treated muscle had a more normal morphology, although some ongoing myofibrillar dissolution was present. There was evidence for a limited amount of muscle regeneration. Three levels of injury were seen: a severe, irreversible injury in the majority of the myofibers; a mild, reversible injury in a subset of the fibers; and a group of myofibers apparently uninjured as a result of doxorubicin treatment. Doxorubicin toxicity in skeletal muscle is of rapid onset. Understanding the primary cause and acute changes in doxorubicin myotoxicity may accelerate the development of improved protocols to increase the effectiveness of doxorubicin in treating muscle spasm diseases.

Abstract
This experiment was performed to study the effects of administration of 20% saline solution 1.5 ml.kg-1 on the circulatory dynamics during the hemorrhagic shock state. Administration of 20% saline solution 1.5 ml.kg-1 during the hemorrhagic shock produced twofold increase of the mean arterial blood pressure for one hour, 2.5 fold increase of the cardiac output, increasing tendency in the mean pulmonary arterial pressure, central venous pressure, and the heart rate, accompanied by decrease in total peripheral resistance and the pulmonary blood vessel resistance. There were no improvements in acidosis and hematocrit. These data suggest that the circulatory improvements after the administration of 20% saline solution depend on an increase in cardiac output as the result of improvements in both pre- and after-load, but not of plasma volume expansion. The results also suggest that the administration of 20% saline solution 1.5 ml.kg-1 is useful for an emergency case with acute circulatory insufficiency or for emergency resuscitation.

Abstract
The histamine H3 agonist, (R)-alpha-methylhistamine (alpha-MeHA, 10(-10) to 10(-5) M), caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of the sympathetic contractile response to electrical field stimulation of guinea pig isolated atria, but alpha-MeHA did not alter the basal tension or the contraction induced by exogenously applied norepinephrine. Blockade of H1 and H2 histamine receptors, and alpha- and beta-adrenoceptors failed to prevent the inhibitory effect of alpha-MeHA, whereas the specific H3 receptor antagonist, thioperamide, concentration dependently reversed the inhibitory effect of alpha-MeHA. At the concentration of 10(-7) M, which was effective for antagonizing the action of alpha-MeHA, thioperamide did not modify the sympathetic responses facilitated by the beta 2-adrenoceptor agonist, clenbuterol, or attenuated by the alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist, clonidine. Our results suggest that H3 receptors exist on the cardiac sympathetic terminals, which may modulate adrenergic neurotransmission in guinea pig myocardium.

Abstract
At 0.1-30 mumols/L, neither ranitidine (Ran) nor cimetidine (Cim) inhibited the rate of spontaneous contraction in isolated right atria of guinea pig. When the concentration was higher than 100 mumols/L, both Ran and Cim exhibited weak negative chronotropic effects with IC50 of 109 +/- 3 and 436.5 +/- 1.9 mumols/L, respectively. However, the positive chronotropic effects of histamine (H) were markedly antagonized by Ran and Cim with IC50 of 0.40 +/- 0.29 and 1.8 +/- 0.6 mumols/L respectively. Ran (0.1 mumols/L) and Cim (1 mumols/L) competitively antagonized the concentration-dependent response of positive chronotropic effect mediated by H and had no influence on that induced by isoproterenol in right atria of guinea pig. Ran (10 mumols/L) and Cim (50 mumols/L) prevented the abnormal automaticity elicited by H and H (0.12 +/- 0.09 mumols/L) + Oua (0.04 +/- 0.02 mumols/L) which acted synergically. The abnormal automaticity induced by Oua (1.5 +/- 2.3 mumols/L) was antagonized by Ran (10 mumols/L) and not by Cim (50 mumols/L). Our results suggest that these effects of Ran and Cim are mainly attributed to cardiac H2 receptor blockade.

Abstract
By using immunofluorescent staining we were able to characterize the age-related changes in the macromolecules making up the extracellular matrix of the lamina cribrosa of the human optic nerve head. As the cores of the cribriform plates enlarged with age, there were age-related increases in the apparent density of collagen types I and III and elastin that constituted the connective tissue support of the nerve bundles. Collagen type IV coated the cribriform plates as basement membranes and was also present within the cores as a fine filamentous network, which increased in density with age as the cribriform plates expanded. As this tissue ages, individual differences leading to more or less of a particular macromolecule of the extracellular matrix may alter the support function of the lamina cribrosa and influence the degeneration of the optic nerve associated with glaucoma.

Abstract
The effects of two H2-receptor antagonists, ranitidine (Ran) and cimetidine (Cim), on the ventricular fibrillation threshold (VFT) and dispersion of the refractory period in animals with early acute myocardial ischemia induced by coronary artery ligation (CAL) were studied. The measurement of VFT was obtained in anaesthetized rats. The control group showed a decrease in VFT from 6.7 +/- 0.4 to 3.1 +/- 0.7 V 5 min after CAL, while Ran (15 mg/kg iv) and Cim (40 mg/kg iv) increased VFT from 2.8 +/- 0.7 to 5.4 +/- 1.7 V and from 3.1 +/- 0.8 to 8.1 +/- 2.7 V, respectively. By means of suction electrodes, FRP in different ischemic zones were recorded in anaesthetized rabbits, and differences between FRP in different zones were taken as the dispersion of FRP. After CAL, the control group exhibited a prolongation of FRP in central ischemic zone and a shortening of FRP in boundary zone, i.e., a dispersion of FRP was increased. Both Ran (5 mg/kg iv) and Cim (25 mg/kg iv) markedly decreased the extent of dispersion of FRP. It is concluded that the anti-arrhythmic effects of Ran and Cim may be attributable to increases in VFT and decreases in dispersion of FRP.

Abstract
We used immunoperoxidase staining and double immunofluorescent staining to demonstrate the macromolecular components of the extracellular matrix of the lamina cribrosa from young human donors. The cribriform plates were made up of a core of elastin fibers with a sparse, patchy distribution of collagen type III. The plates were coated with collagen type IV and laminin; these basement membrane components were presumably made by the astrocytes that were distributed on the surfaces of the plates. The insertion of the lamina cribrosa in the sclera was made up of concentric, circumferential elastin fibers that surrounded the lamina cribrosa and were continuous with the elastin in the cribriform plates. Astrocytic processes extended into the bundles of elastin fibers, whereas the basement membrane components extended into the sclera. The mechanical properties of the macromolecules of the extracellular matrix of the lamina cribrosa may make this tissue compliant and sensitive to intraocular pressure. Perhaps individual differences in the macromolecular components of this tissue contribute to the glaucomatous changes in the optic nerve head.
