Objective To explore the effects of citicoline injection into Zusanli point (ST36) on learning and memory function of rats after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods The model was induced with the improved Feeney method. The rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham-operation group, control group, acupuncture point saline injection group, intraperitoneal drug injection group and acupuncture point drug injection group with 8 rats in each group. The rats in the acupuncture point drug or saline injection group were treated with acupuncture injection of citicoline or saline daily. The rats in the intraperitoneal drug injection group and control group were treated with intraperitoneal injection of citicoline or saline daily. The treatment continued for 14 d. The learning and memory function was evaluated with the Morris water maze test and passive avoidance test. Results Acupuncture point injection of citicoline can significantly shorten the escape latent period of TBI rats in Morris water tests and extend the latent period of learning and memory of TBI rats (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupuncture point injection is effective on the recovery of learning and memory function of rats after TBI.

Objective To investigate the effects of injection of citicoline into Zusanli (ST36) acupoint on neural function and expression of growth associated protein-43 (GAP-43) in rats with traumatic brain injury. Methods 40 healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups: sham-operated group (group A, n=8), acupoint injection of citicoline group (group B, n=8), acupoint injection of saline group (group C, n=8), intraperitoneal injection of citicoline group (group D, n=8) and intraperitoneal injection of saline group (group E, n=8). Opened brain trauma was induced with the modified Feeney method in the groups B, C, D and E, and were treated as design, once a day for 14 days. They were assessed with nervous function score and open-field test before and 8, 14, 15, and 22 days after injury. The expression of GAP-43 in the brain were detected with immunohistochemistry 28 days after injury. Results The nervous function scores and open-field test scores improved more significantly in the group B than in the groups C, D and E (P<0.05). The expression of GAP-43 increased in the group B than in the groups C, D and E (P<0.05). Conclusion Acupoint injection of citicoline into Zusanli may improve the expressions of GAP-43 to promote the recovery of neural function in rats after traumatic brain injury.

Objective To explore the effect of early Chinese medicine intervention on motor function and balance capability of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods 55 cases of hospitalized TBI patients were randomly divided into observation group (n=27) and control group (n=28). The control group accepted routine rehabilitation program, while the observation group accepted Chinese medicine therapy in addition for 8 weeks. The motor function and balance capability were tested with Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and Berg Balance Scale (BBS) respectively before and after treatment. Results The scores of FMA and BBS significantly increased after treatment (P<0.01), and they were higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Chinese medicine combined with routine rehabilitation program is effective on motor dysfunction after TBI.

Objective To observe the effects of Chinese Traditional Medicine on cognitive functions in the early stage of traumatic braininjury (TBI). Methods 49 inpatients with TBI were divided into treatment group (n=25) and control group (n=24) randomly. The controlgroup accepted routine rehabilitation, while the treatment group accepted Chinese Traditional Medicine in addition. They were assessed withLoewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment (LOTCA) before and after treatment. Results All the scores of LOTCA of treatmentgroup significantly improved after treatment (P<0.01), as well as in control group except "Categories". Most scores of LOTCA improvedmore in the treatment group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Chinese Traditional Medicine can improve the cognitivefunction after TBI.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of color Doppler echocardiography for cardiac tumors .Meth-ods:Clinical data of 87 patients with cardiac tumors were retrospectively analyzed ,including their diseased loca-tion ,clinical manif′estations and echocardiography feature .Results:All cardiac tumors obtain pathologic confirma-tion .There were 73 patients (83.9% ) with benign cardiac tumors ,including 66 patients (90.4% ) with myxoma and seven patients with other types ;there were 14 patients (16.1% ) with malignant cardiac tumors .Echocardiography indicated that myxoma was often located in left atrium (n=58) ,most cases possessed pedicell,its activity was large ;Other type benign cardiac tumors feature :The 6 case (86% ) were generated inside cardiac muscle without pedicell, its echo was more strong ;malignant tumors:its attachment surface was wide without pedicell,and it may show with globular or cauliflower ,and accompanied hydropericardium mostly .Conclusion:Echocardiography can dynamically observe the form ,size ,echo and hemodynamic changes of tumors ,its diagnostic accuracy is high .Myxoma is most frequent cardiac tumor .

Aim To explore the lipid-lowering mecha-nisms of curcumin from the molecular levels and pro-vide scientific basis for clinical development of lipid-lowering drugs.Methods Using oil red O staining and enzymic to determinate the levels of cholesterol in HepG2 cells.Moreover,uptaking of DiI-LDL was also measured.The expressions of mRNA and protein were detected by RT-Q-PCR and Western blot.Results The red lipid droplets and the levels of TC and FC sig-nificantly increased in HepG2 cells after treated with curcumin.The orange red fluorescence was higher than that of control.Curcumin could promote the expression levels of mRNA and protein of SREBP2 and LDLR, what′s more,curcumin could reduce the expression of the mature PCSK9 level and IDOL protein.Conclu-sion Curcumin accelerates LDL-C uptake probably via downregulating the expression of PCSK9 and IDOL in HepG2 cells.

A series of adefovir mono-L-amino acid esters, mono non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs carboxylic ester prodrugs with more potent anti-HBV activity and lower nephrotoxicity were designed and synthesized. Adefovir bis (L-amino acid) ester was used as lead compound, according to pathological and pharmacological findings that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can effectively inhibit the organic anion transporter 1 (hOAT1)-mediated adefovir phosphonic acid pairs of anion transport across tubular basement membrane thereby reducing the nephrotoxicity of adefovir. Flatten design principle was used to introducing non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs structural fragments to design and synthesize target adefovir mixture ester prodrugs. HepG2 2.2.15 cell line was used as in vitro anti-HBV activity evaluation model. Five compounds exhibited antiviral activity, and compound 18 showed the most potent anti-HBV activity and relatively high selective index (EC50 3.92 micromol L(-1), SI 9.97). HK-2 cell line was used as in vitro model to evaluate nephrotoxicity. Results suggested the target compounds have lower cytotoxicity than the positive control. Moreover, by analyzing the primary structure and activity relationship of these compounds, it could suggest that mono-L-amino acid ester, mono non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs carboxylic ester prodrugs strategy has significant potential in the acyclic nucleoside phosphonates prodrug design.
