METHODS: SAP was induced by creating closed duodenal loop inC3H/HeN mice. SAP was induced immediately after intrapedtoneal injection of anti-HMGB1 neutralizing antibody (200 pg). Sevedty of pancreatitis, organ injury (liver, kidney and lung), and bacterial translocation to pancreas was examined 12 h after induction of SAP. RESULTS: Anti-HHGB1 neutralizing antibody significantly improved the elevation of the serum amylase level and the histological alterations of pancreas and lung in SAR Anti-HHGB1 antibody also significantly ameliorated the elevations of serum alanine aminotransferase and creatinine in SAR However, anti-HHGB1 antibody worsened the bacterial translocation to pancreas. CONCLUSION: Blockade of HHGB1 attenuated the development of SAP and associated organ dysfunction, suggesting that HHGB1 may act as a key mediator for inflammatory response and organ injury in SAR展开更多

Zircons extracted from the metamorphic sequence of volcanics and intrusions of the Nyainqêntanglha Group, 10 km west of Nam Co in northern Lhasa block, have been investigated by cathodolu- minescence (CL), backscattered (BSE) and dated by ion microprobe (SHRIMP). We conclude that the U-Pb age of 787±9 Ma of zircons from the trondhjemite imposes a constraint on maxi- mum protolith age, and minimum formation age of the Nyainqêntanglha Group is constrained by U-Pb age of 748±8 Ma of zircons from the granite. The formation age of the Nyainqêntanglha Group is consistent with sedimentary age of Greater Himalayan rocks, showing that they devel- oped coevally in an arc-basin tectonic setting of Neoproterozoic active continental margin along the northern margin of the India shield. The inherited zircons from the tholetiite and granite give older 207Pb/206Pb ages from 947 to 1766 Ma. The positive εNd( t ) value indicates that the mafic rocks were derived from the depleted mantle, but contaminated by the older continental crustal material. Integrated Nd model age and U-Pb age data provide excellent evidence for the exis- tence of Mesoproterozoic basement in the Lhasa block during Neoproterozoic time.展开更多
