In conclusion, we herein summarized surgical results with primary cardiac myxomas. Surgical excision of primary cardiac myxomas tends to show excellent results after surgical excision.

BackgroundIschemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is harmful to the cardiovascular system and is responsible for the inflammatory response and multiple organ dysfunctions. In this study we investigated the effect of activated clotting time level on the aortic cross-clamping triggers a systemic inflammatory response and it effects to lungs and heart.MethodsEnd organ concentrations of interleukin-6 (IL-6), myeloperoxidase (MPO) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP-70) were determined in four groups of Spraque Dawley rats: ischemic control (operation with cross clamping received IP of 0.9% saline at 2 ml/kg n=7) Sham (operation without cross clamping, n=7), heparin (ACT level about 200), High dose heparin (ACT level up to 600) The infrarenal aorta was clamped for 45 minutes by a mini cross clamp approximately 1cm below the renal artery and 1cm iliac bifurcation in all groups without sham group. Heparin was given intraperitoneal (IP) before the procedure. All rats were sacrificed 48 h later. In a second experiment, the effects of I/R on remote organs (lungs and heart) were harvested for analysis. We evaluated tissue levels of myeloperoxidase, interleukin-6, and heat shock protein (HSP-70) were analyzed as markers oxidative stress and inflammation. Histological analyses of the organs were performed.ResultsThe lungs paranchymal MPO and HSP-70 levels significantly decreased (p<0.05), but IL-6 level was not significant (p>0.05) in heparinized and high dose heparinized groups when compared to ischemic control group. Histopathological evaluation as edema, cell degeneration, inflammation statistically significantly decreased in both group heparinized and high dose heparinized compared with ischemic control group (p<0.05). The heart paranchymal MPO levels significantly decreased in heparinized and high dose heparinized groups when compared to ischemic control group (p=0.023). IL-6, HSP-70 levels were not significant heparinized and high dose heparinized groups when compared to ischemic control group (p=0.0489, p=0.0143). Histopathological evaluation as degeneration statistically significantly decreased in both group heparinized and High dose heparinized compared with ischemic control group (p=0.005).ConclusionHeparin decreased remote organs injury on the lung and heart after ischemia/reperfusion of infra-renal section of the body in the rat model. So, we should be balance to act level for avoid to I/R injury per operative and early post operative period as providing ACT level nearly 200.

vitro, the amino acids glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine, glutamine, proline, serine, and arginine induced rooting of explants in the presence of a-naphthalene acetic acid (Kamada and Harada 1979). Furthermore, it was found that while proline (10-200 mg L -1 ) increased the rooting percentage and number of roots per rooted explant of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) and sour cherry (Prunus cerasus L.), the root length was reduced (Baraldi et al. 1988).The different forms of nitrogen as well as its proportion can influence a number of factors in various in vitro cultures, such as cell division, the growth and development of somatic embryos, chlorophyll content, ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase activity, the electron transport rate, the photosynthetic rate, fresh mass, soluble protein concentration, and the osmotic pressure of the cell sap (Mashayekhi-Nezamabadi 2000). It has been reported that reduced nitrogen forms, particularly amides and amino acids, can improve cell proliferation, as well as regeneration in specific genotypes (Vasudevan et al. 2004).Methionine, a sulfur-containing amino acid, is a precursor of ethylene biosynthesis in plant tissues (Yang 1985). Besides its function as a protein constituent and its central role in the initiation of mRNA translation, methionine indirectly regulates a range of cellular processes as the precursor of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) (Amir et al. 2002). Not only is SAM the primary biological methyl-group donor, but it is also the precursor of plant metabolites, including ethylene, polyamines, vitamin B 1 , and the iron chelator mugineic acid (Sun Abstract: In the present study, the effects of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) alone and in combination with L-methionine were investigated on the morphogenic and biochemical responses in the shoot tip explants of the cherry rootstocks CAB-6P (Prunus cerasus L.) and Gisela 6 (Prunus cerasus × Prunus canescens). The best results for roots, regarding their number and the fresh and dry weight, were obtained with 2 mg L -1 IBA in both rootstocks. Maximum rooting percentage was with the combination of 2 mg L -1 IBA and 0.5 mg L -1 L-methionine. Root length was greatest in the control plants. L-methionine had an inhibitory effect on the leaf chlorophyll content of the CAB-6P rootstock and no effect in Gisela 6. L-methionine with the lowest IBA concentration (0.5 mg L -1 ) exhibited elevated levels of proline in the roots of the CAB-6P rootstock and depleted levels in Gisela 6. For the Gisela 6 rootstock, the leaf carbohydrate concentration was highest with 2 mg L -1 of IBA, whereas in the roots it was highest in the control. For the CAB-6P rootstock, the leaf carbohydrate concentration was not influenced by IBA with L-methionine, whereas the highest carbohydrate concentration in the roots was with the combinations of 0.5 mg L -1 IBA and 1 and 2 mg L -1 L-methionine. Taking into account the different parameters examined, it appears that chlorophyll and carbohydrates are the most accurate biochemical markers of the rooting ...
