Whole-cell patch-clamp techniques were performed to investigate the effects of 2-APB, SK&F96365, econazole and miconazole on Isoc in isolated rat Kupffer cells after hepatic I/R injury.RESULTS: I/R injury significantly increased Isoc from -80.4±25.2pA to -159.5±34.5pA (^bp 〈 0.01, n = 30). 2-APB (20, 40, 60, 80, 100 pmol/L), SK&F96365 (5, 10, 20, 40, 50 pmol/L), econazole (0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10 μmol/L) and miconazole (0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10 μmol/L) inhibited Isoc in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 of 37.41 μmol/L (n = 8), 5.89 μmol/L (n = 11), 0.21 μmol/L (n = 13), and 0.28 μmol/L (n = 10). The peak value of Isoc in the I-V relationship was decreased by the blockers in different concentrations, but the reverse potential of Isoc was not transformed. CONCLUSION: SOC is the main channel for the influx of Ca^2+ during hepatic I/R injuries. Calcium channel blockers, 2-APB, SK&F96365, econazole and miconazole,have obviously protective effects on I/R injury, probably by inhibiting Isoc in Kupffer cells and preventing the activation of Kupffer cells.展开更多

The mixture was completely hydrogenated to NaAlH4 after 70 h under hydrogen pressure of 1 MPa. And higher hydrogen pressure is beneficial for the conversion from NaH/Al mixture to NaAlH4. The dehydrogenation properties of the as-synthesized Ti-Bdoped sodium aluminum were systematically investigated.The result shows that ball-milled Ti-B has a remarkable catalytic effect on the enhanced dehydrogenation properties of NaAlH4. As-synthesized Ti-B-doped NaAlH_4 sample releases hydrogen at the temperature of about 100 ℃. Approximately 4.15 wt% H2 is released from ballmilled Ti-B-doped NaAlH_4 at 233.7 ℃. Even at 110 ℃, it also releases about 2.83 wt% hydrogen. The apparent activation energy(E_a) for the first step is estimated to be 83.97 k J·mol^-1 using Arrhenius equation. Thus, utilization of ball-milled Ti-B as catalyst would substantially enhance the practical applications of NaAlH_4 for hydrogen storage.展开更多
