This article was aimed to study the effect ofXiao-Qing-LongDecoction (XQLD) on plasma AngⅡ, ALD, Na+-k+-ATPase content, and plasma AT1 and AT2 mRNA expressions in Cor pulmonale rats, in order to further explore the mechanism of ventilating lung qi for diuresis. A total of 60 Wistar rats were randomly divided into the normal group, model group and XQLD, with 20 rats in each group. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method was used to determine the AngⅡ, ALD and Na+-k+-ATPase content. The fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the AT1 and AT2 mRNA expression. The results showed that compared with the normal group, the AngⅡ, ALD and Na+-k+-ATPase contents in the model group were significantly increased (P< 0.05, orP< 0.01). Compared with the model group, the AngⅡ, ALD and Na+-k+-ATPase contents in the XQLD group were obviously decreased (P< 0.05). Compared with the normal group, AT1 mRNA expression was increased; and AT2 mRNA expression was decreased in the model group (P<0.05, orP< 0.01). Compared with the model group, AT1 mRNA expression was decreased; and AT2 mRNA expression was increased in the XQLD group (P < 0.01). It was concluded that XQLD can effectively regulate the AT1 and AT2 mRNA expressions, influence ALD content to ventilate lungqi for dieresis.

Objective To investigate the effects of Qibai Pingfei Capsules(QPC) on the expression of monoamine neurotransmitters of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor(5-HT) and dopamine(DA) receptors of DA1 and DA5 in the rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) accompanied with depression, and to explore the possible therapeutic mechanism. Methods Ninety male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, namely normal group, COPD depression group, QPC group, Venlafaxine group, and QPC plus Venlafaxine group. The rat model of COPD accompanied with depression was established by compound methods of smoking, food deprivation, water deprivation, forced swimming, shaking, and clipping tail. And then the effects of QPC on the lung function and the general characteristics were observed. Furthermore, the mRNA level of 5-HT1AR was determined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR), and protein levels of DA-1 and DA-5 in rat hippocampus were assayed by Western blot analysis. Results Compared with the normal group, forced expiratory volume in 0.3 second(FEV0.3), the forced volume capacity(FVC) and FEV0.3/ FVC in the COPD depression group were significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Compared with the COPD depression group, the values mentioned above were restored to different extents in the groups of QPC, Venlafaxine, and QPC plus Venlafaxine(P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, the expression levels of 5-HT1AR mRNA, and DA-1 and DA-5 protein in the COPD depression group were significantly down-regulated, and their levels were also slightly decreased in the treatment groups(P<0.05). Compared with the COPD depression group, the expression levels were up-regulated to various degrees in all of the treatment groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion QPC can increase the mRNA levels of 5-HT1AR and protein levels of DA-1 and DA-5 in the hippocampus of COPD with depression.

ObjectiveTo study the changes of cellular immunity caused by intravenous infusion of allogenic rhesus mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs).MethodsMSCs were isolated and cultured.Then the immunomodulatory effects after MSCs infusion were evaluated by means of peripheral blood counts,mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and analysis of lymphocytic subgroup. ResultsMSCs of rehsus were successfully cultivated. No acute toxicities or GVHD were observed in recipients. No obvious changes of peripheral blood counts were present. Recipients A2, A3, A4 were administered with MSC by 4.0 ×105/kg, 1.0 ×106/kg, 2.0×106/kg respectively and relative reaction (RR) of MLR decreased 14 days post MSCs infusion: from 46±2.6 %to 40.4±1.73 % (F =10.19, P =0.023), from (40.9±2.3) % to (33±2.1) % (F =2.593, P =0.013), from 48.3±2.0 % to 39±1.0 % (F =28.431, P =0.003) respectively. The decrease degree (ARR) was positively related to the amount of MSCs(F =27.413, P =0.038). RR was restored within 30 days post MSCs infusion. After MSCs infusion, CD3+ CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ T-lymphocytes decreased in recipient A4, who was administered with the largest number of MSCs, and restored within 30 days. ConclusionMSCs infusion without any other treatment could temporarily inhibit immunity of T lymphocytes in MLR and the immunity inhibition was positively related to the amount of MSCs.The specific immunological characteristics of MSCs were demonstrated with extensive prospect in clinical research.

This study was aimed to diffuse the lung and promote urination for the observation of cardiopulmonary re-lated index change of cor pulmonale rats to further explore the treatment effect on the pulmonary function, pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and the influence of right heart hypertrophy of rats, in order to further illustrate the ef-fect of diffusing the lung and promoting urination for cor pulmonale. Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group, model group and Xiao-Qing-Long decoction (XQLD) group with 20 rats in each group. The AniRes2003 animal lung function analysis system was applied to measure the pulmonary function of rats. And the multi-guide physiological recorder was used in the recording of the pulmonary artery pressure of rats. The conven-tional weighing method was applied to calculate and obtain the change of right heart hypertrophy. The results showed that compared to the control group, symptoms in the model group became severe obviously, which include reduced activity, slow movement and occasional airway sputum sound, and the right heart hypertrophy index of the model group increased obviously (P < 0.01). Compared to the model group, the pulmonary function and pulmonary artery pressure of the XQLD group have obvious difference (P< 0.05). It was concluded that to diffuse the lung and pro-mote urination can effectively improve the pulmonary function, PAH and the right heart hypertrophy index of rats with cor pulmonale (fluid retention). The effect of this method is definite in the treatment of cor pulmonale.

Methods Twenty Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into normal control group and COPD model group,with 10 rats in each group. The COPD model was reproduced by smoke inhalation and tracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide(LPS),and no such treatment was conducted in normal control group. Twenty-eight days after the model reproduction,the pulmonary function was determined,the pathological changes of lung tissue were observed with haematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,interleukins(IL-6,IL-10)in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg of peripheral blood was determined by flow cytometry,and the expressions of Foxp3,RORγt,IL-17 protein in lung tissue were assayed by Western Blot. Results Under light microscope,significal interstitial infiltration of inflammatory cells was found in alveoli and interstitial tissue of the lung,and destruction of alveolar tissue,alveolar wall thinning,and even rupture to fuse into bullae,and bleeding into alveoli in different degress could be observed. Compared with the normal control group,forced vital capacity(FVC),forced expiratory volume in 0.3 second(FEV0.3),FEV0.3/FVC,peak expiratory flow(PEF)in model group were significantly decreased〔FVC(mL):8.04±2.03 vs. 9.97±2.14,FEV0.3(mL):6.16±2.23 vs. 8.84±2.12,FEV0.3/FVC:0.70±0.09 vs. 0.85±0.11,PEF(mL/s):33.56±4.76 vs. 40.14±5.64, P<0.05 or P<0.01〕. Serum IL-6 was obviously increased(ng/L:93.17±20.96 vs. 76.28±13.24,P<0.05), IL-10 was significantly decreased(ng/L:78.62±15.17 vs. 104.34±19.46,P<0.01),and CD4+CD25+FoxP3+Treg was significantly diminished〔(2.75±0.83)% vs.(4.16±1.14)%,P<0.01〕in model group compared with those in the normal control group. The expression of Foxp3 protein in lung tissue in model group was significantly down-regulated compared with that in the normal control group(gray scale:0.38±0.15 vs. 0.63±0.11,P<0.01), and RORγt and IL-17 protein expressions were significantly up-regulated〔RORγt(gray scale):0.96±0.23 vs. 0.47±0.11,IL-17(gray scale):1.02±0.24 vs. 0.34±0.08,both P<0.01〕. Correlation analysis showed that FEV0.3 was positively correlated with Foxp3(r=0.585,P<0.05),and FEV0.3/FVC was negatively correlated with IL-6 and RORγt(r=-0.655,r=-0.607,both P<0.05). PEF was positively correlated with Treg(r=0.573, P<0.05),and negatively correlated with IL-17(r=-0.198,P<0.05). IL-6 was negatively correlated with Foxp3(r=-0.603,P<0.05),and positively correlated with RORγt(r=0.588,P<0.05). IL-10 was positively correlated with Treg(r=0.573,P<0.05). Treg was positively correlated with Foxp3(r=0.607,P<0.05), and negatively correlated with IL-17(r=-0.569,P<0.05). Foxp3 was negatively correlated with RORγt(r=-0.591, P<0.05). RORγt was positively correlated with IL-17(r=0.578,P<0.05). Conclusion There is a relationship among decreased pulmonary function,inflammation and imbalance of Foxp3/Treg and RORγt/Th17 in COPD.
