The mechanism of Tongmai Oral Liquid (TOL) for chronic nephritis rat model with Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome was studied.The model was established by adding Qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome to the chronic nephritis rats. The experimental rats were randomly allocated to 5 groups: Group A (treated with high dosage of TOL), Group B (treated with low dosage of TOL), Group C (treated with Jinshuibao), Group D (model control group) and Group E (normal control group). After 4 weeks of treatment, general health state, biochemical indexes including T lymphocyte subgroup and blood rheology, and pathological damage of kidney tissue were much improved in Group A than Group B and Group C. It is indicated that TOL can improve the renal function and delay the occurrence of glomerular arteriosclerosis in rats by reinforcing Qi, activating blood flow, regulating immune function, lessening the hypercoagulative state and reducing renal damage.

Background The study on normal stem cell markers provides a new way of thinking of that pathogenesis of cancer research and looking for specific markers of cancer stem cells.Importin13 (IPO13) is a novel nucleus-cytoplasm transport receptor protein of importin β family,the study on the biological behavior of IPO13 in ocular tissue and limbal neoplasms is lacking.Objective This study was to investigate the differential expression of IPO13 and p63 in human benign and malignant conjunctiva-cornea neoplasms.Methods The specimens of normal donor limbal and conjunctival tissues (6),conjunciva-cornea papilloma (CCP) (6) and conjunctiva-cornea intraepithelial neoplasia(CCIN) (6)were collected from Xiangya Hospital of Center South University.The expressions of IPO13 and p63 in the corresponding tissue were qualitatively and quantitatively detected using immunochemistry.The A values of IPO13 and p63 positive response were calculated and compared among the 3 types specimens.Results The immunohistostaining on frozen sections showed that IPO13 was expressed in nuclei of basal cells of limbal and conjunctival epithelium and the cellular nuclei of basal cells and suprabasal cells of CCP and CCIN epithelium.The A values of IPO13 positive expression were 1687± 1014,3546± 1375 and 7635 ±2854 in the normal limbal specimen,CCP and CCIN,respectively,showing a significant difference among them (F =7.23,P＜0.05),and the A value was higher in the CCP and CCIN than that in the normal limbal tissue (q =4.02,5.13,P＜0.05),and that in the CCIN was significantly elevated in comparison with CCP(q =3.45,P＜0.05).p63 was expressed in nuclei of basal cells and suprabasal of limbal,conjunctival and CCP epithelium,and was expressed in nuclei of the entire CCIN epithelium.The expressions of p63 in the normal conjunctiva-cornea tissue,CCP and CCIN were 2110± 1229,3966± 2129 and 6650± 2136 respectively,with significant difference among the three different specimens (F =6.17,P＜ 0.05),and the A value of p63 positive expression was significantly elevated in the CCP and CCIN compared with normal limbal specimen (q =4.33,5.01,P＜0.05),and that in the CCIN was significantly elevated in comparison with CCP(q=3.83,P＜0.05).Conclusions IPO13 is more specifical in marking the poorly differentiated cells in limbal epithelial proliferative lesions than p63.Compared with the normal limbal specimen,the expressions of IPO13 and p63 in CCP and CCIN specimens gradually upregulat,which suggests that IPO13 and p63 may play a positive regulatory role in conjunctiva-cornea proliferative lesions.The differential expression of IPO13 and p63 is predominant between benign and malignant limbal epithelial proliferative lesions,indicating that IPO13 and p63 may play an important role in regulating the abnormal proliferation and differentiation of limbal epithelial proliferative lesions.

Objective To observe effects of acupuncture on different traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) syndrome types in patients with apoplectic hemiplegia.Methods 57 cases of apoplectic hemiplegia were divided into the Qi deficiency with blood stagnation group(35 cases) and blockage of the meridians and collaterals by phlegm and blood group(22 cases).All patients were treated by scalp acupuncture combined with body acupuncture.The clinical therapeutic effect was evaluated according to the scores of manner,speech,motor function of limbs,and so on.Results In the Qi deficiency and blood stagnation group,2 cases were basically cured,17 were remarkably effective,12 were effective,with a total effective rate of 88.6%;while,in the blockage of the meridians and collaterals by phlegm and blood group,3 cases were basically cured,14 were remarkably effective,3 were effective,with a total effective rate of 90.9%.There was a significant difference between the two groups in clinical remarkably effective rate(P<0.01),but no difference in total effective rate( P>0.05).Conclusion Acupuncture can obviously improve the consciousness,language and limb function of patients with apoplectic hemiplegia.The effective rate of type of blockage of the meridians and collaterals by phlegm and blood is superior to type of Qi deficiency with blood stagnation.

Objective To investigate in vitro anti-hydatid efficacy on Echinococcus granulosus protoscolex(EgPSC) by using albendazole sulfoxide(ASOX) and its two enantiomeric antipodes, L-ASOX and D-ASOX.Methods Eg protoscoleces were divided into eight groups and cultured in the DMEM culture media under two concentrations(50 ?g/ml and 100 ?g/ml) of ASOX, L-ASOX and D-ASOX respectively.The appropriate controls included(i) a culture containing an equal amount of DMSO and(ii) a culture medium alone.The mortality of EgPSC in each group was daily counted until 100% EgPSC death in some groups.Results Significant difference of EgPSC mortality was found among the three drugs with various concentrations compared to control group(P0.05), but between ASOX group and L-ASOX group(P
