[Objective]For revealing the definition of the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver ,and its historical evolution. [Method]The definition of the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver and the mainstream view of Yin and Yang of before the Song Dynasty, Song Dynasty and modern is investigated in this paper. The definition of the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver of different periods, different ideological background and different mainstream view of Yin and Yang is clarified by historical investigation. [Result]Because of the influence of Confucius studies, there is not the definition of the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver based on the object of liver in the TCM theory of Han and Tang dynasties. The Yin of liver and the Yang of liver mainly refer to the yin qi and yang qi in the liver. Because of the influence of neo-confucianism, the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver based on the object of liver was established in the TCM theory of Song and Ming dynasties. The Yin of liver and the Yang of liver mainly refer to the body and function of liver. Under the background of modernization of TCM, the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver based on the object of liver was established in the basic theories of TCM. However, there is a controversy of the concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver, because of the effect of modern philosophy and science, ignoring the change of Chinese philosophy. [Conclusion]The clear concept of the Yin of liver and the Yang of liver of different periods, different ideological background and different mainstream views of Yin and Yang will reduce the influence of the fictional historical. Whether in ancient literature research, the liver like zang-fu theory of TCM theory, research, or the modern liver zang-fu theory of TCM, and establishing the theory of Chinese medicine has a positive meaning.

Objective To evaluate the inhibiting effect of selective and non-selective cyclo-oxygenase-2(COX-2) inhibitor on growth of colon cancer cell lines in vitro and its signal transduction pathway. Methods The proliferation of colon cancer cells was determined by MTT assay. COX-2, nuclear factor(NF)-?Bp65, extracellular-signal regulated kinase(ERK), phospho ERK(pERK) protein expressed in colon cancer cell lines were analyzed by Western blot. Activator protein(AP)-1 and NF-?B binding activity influenced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory was detected by electrophoretic mobility sift assay. Results Aspirin and celecoxib could inhibit the proliferation of HT-29, SW480 and LS174-T cells and showed a dose-dependent manner. Western blot analysis showed that expression of COX-2, pERK, NF-?Bp65 protein in colon cancer cells were down-regulated by celecoxib or aspirin in some degree but not effect in total ERK expression. AP-1 and NF-?B binding activity could be stimulated by 20% fetal calf serum or tumor necrosis factor-?. Both aspirin and celecoxib could inhibit fetal calf serum-induced AP-1 activation in HT-29 and SW480 cells. Celecoxib could also inhibit tumor necrosis factor induced NF-?B binding activity, but aspirin had little effects on SW480 cells. Conclusion NSAIDs are able to potentially inhibit the growth of colon cell lines in vitro and the mechanism may relate to AP-1 and NF-?B signal transduction pathway.
