Animal model of coronary artery spasm-coronary thrombosis-acute myocardial infarction. A study on hemodynamics, EKG, coronary angiography, biochemistry and pathology.

An animal model of coronary artery spasm-coronary thrombosis-acute myocardial infarction (CAS-CATH-AMI) was obtained by injecting ergonovine(0.22 mg/kg) directly into the left coronary artery (LCA) of 17 dogs under general anesthesia. Various parameters of the experimental group were compared with those of the control group consisting of 5 dogs. The following changes were observed: increased average arterial blood pressure (MAP), pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), stroke volume (SV, P less than 0.05), PAP (P less than 0.01) transient decreased cardiac output (CO); elevated ST-T in EKG; ventricular arrhythmia in 60% of animals; transient spasm of 50%-75% of LCA in the LCA angiographs; enhancement of platelet aggregation and TXB2 (P less than 0.01) and decline of 6 Keto-PGF1 alpha, SAO2 (P less than 0.05), indicating acute hypoxia and high coagulating pathophysiological changes after CAS. Pathological examination one hour after CAS induction revealed CATH(53%) in addition to CAS induced morphological changes of the CA and myocardium, as well as necrosis of the corresponding sites in its early stage. This study provides a reproducible animal model of CAS-CATH-AMI for research of coronary heart disease and pathomorphological criteria for the diagnosis of CAS. It also shows that CAS may lead to CATH-AMI, therefore, prevention of CATH and AMI is possible.

Protein extraction with reverse micelles.

Liquid-liquid protein extraction with reverse micelles is a new method for protein separation. We studied the effects of pH, ionic concentration, cation type, and protein molecular mass on performance of an AOT/isooctane reverse micelle system in extraction of lysozyme, trypsin, and pepsin. Extraction was found to be very efficient for low-molecular-mass proteins.

[Glomus tumor of the stomach--a case report on a light and electron microscopic study].

This paper reports a case of glomus tumor of stomach from a male patient, 58 years old, with the chief complaint of nausea and vomiting after meal. This tumor was at the anterior wall of the antrum near the lesser curvature. By light microscopy, it was composed of glomus tumor cells and abundant blood vessels. Ultrastructurally, there were numerous filaments, dense bodies, adhesive bodies and pinocytotic vesicles in the cytoplasm. This kind of tumor should be differentiated from the leiomyoblastoma and hemangiopericytoma.

[Pulmonary oncocytic carcinoid--a case report].

A pulmonary oncocytic carcinoid arising from the medial basal segment of the right lung is presented. The abundant oncocytic granules in the cytoplasm were observed by light-microscope. The ultrastructure by electronmicroscope showed that these granules originated from the hyperplasia of mitochondria, and there were membrane-bordered electric dense core granules (neuro-secretive granule) in the cytoplasm of this tumor. According to the morphological features observed by light and electronmicroscope, this tumor is considered as a subtype of bronchial carcinoid and belongs to the APUD system which should be differentiated from the metastatic tumor, the granular cell myoblastoma and the chemodectoma of lung.
