Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2022;29(6):830-834
Objective:To investigate the effects of amoxicillin capsules combined with Fuke Qianjin Tablets on serum inflammatory factors in patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease. Methods:A total of 240 patients with acute pelvic inflammatory disease who received treatment in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Shizhu Branch of the First People's Hospital of Yongkang from January 2016 to June 2020 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either treatment with amoxicillin capsules and conventional drugs (control group, n = 120) or amoxicillin capsules, conventional drugs and Fuke Qianjin Tablets in combination (study group, n = 120). Serum inflammatory factors [C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] were compared between before and after treatment in each group and between two groups after treatment. Results:After treatment, CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the control group were (34.28 ± 7.19) mg/L, (103.52 ± 30.18) mg/L, (103.27 ± 37.18) ng/L, and (64.11 ± 13.28) ng/L, respectively and they were (15.26 ± 6.49) mg/L, (60.44 ± 17.64) mg/L, (62.15 ± 15.33) ng/L, (38.19 ± 9.46) ng/L, respectively in the study group. Before treatment, CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels in the control group were (89.32 ± 17.36) mg/L, (193.27 ± 52.18) mg/L, (180.48 ± 49.25) ng/L, (81.27 ± 18.16) ng/L , respectively and they were (90.48 ± 19.73) mg/L, (192.55 ± 51.84) mg/L, (178.93 ± 50.11) ng/L, (79.83 ± 17.35) ng/L, respectively in the study group. CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels post-treatment were significantly lower than the levels pre-treatment in each group (control group: tCRP = 11.28, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 12.73, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 9.48, P < 0.001; tTNF-α = 8.94, P < 0.001; study group: tCRP = 12.38, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 18.44, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 13.29, P < 0 .001; tTNF-α = 12.43, P < 0.001). CRP, IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α levels post-treatment in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( tCRP = 9.37, P < 0.001; tIL-1 = 11.84, P < 0.001; tIL-6 = 8.33, P < 0.001; tTNF-α = 7.38, P = 0.002). Response rate in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group (95.83% vs. 75.00%, χ2 = 27.29, P < 0.001). Before and after treatment, there were no significant differences in safety indicators between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Amoxicillin capsules combined with Fuke Qianjin Tablets is highly effective on acute pelvic inflammatory disease, greatly lower inflammatory factor levels, and is highly safe.

Objective To study the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in rats after middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO).Methods Seventy-two adult,male,Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control (CON) group,a hyperbaric air (HBA) group,a normobaric oxygen (NBO) group and a hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) group.All were subjected to MCAO.Rats in the CON group did not receive any treatment; those in the other groups were treated with HBA,NBO or HBO daily beginning 2 hours after the operation.Western blotting was applied to detect the expression of nestin,MAP2 and GFAP at 2,3,7 and 14 days after the MCAO.Results The expression of nestin in the HBO group was significantly higher than in the other groups on the 3rd,7th and 14th days.It peaked at day 3 but remained high until day 14.Similarly,expression of MAP2 was significantly higher than in the other groups at least until day 14.GFAP expression was significantly lower than in the other groups.Conclusion HBO can increase neural stem cell proliferation and neuronal differentiation,and inhibit the proliferation of astrocytes.

Objective:To explore in state of Chlamydia trachomatis persistent infection,the STAT3-TLR2 axis may be activated and mediating abnormal secretion of inflammatory cytokines.Methods: We established acute infection and IFN-γinduced persistent infection model of Ct in HeLa cell.Gene transcription, cytokine secretion and protein expression were detected by using qRT-PCR, ELISA and Western blot respectively in STAT3-TLR2 signaling axis in each Ct infection model.Results: Persistent Ct infections upregulated the transcription of TLR2,significantly increased both the secretion of inflammatory cytokine IL-1αand the expression of STAT3 and TLR2,moreover,enhanced the activation of STAT3 simultaneously.Conclusion: In the Ct persistent infection induced by IFN-γ,the STAT3-TLR2 signaling axis activated significantly in HeLa cell.

Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen intervention at different time on the neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation in dentate gyrus subgranular zone (SGZ) of adult rats after acute focal cerebral ischemia.Methods Totally 48 Sprague-Dawley male adult rats were randomly divided into a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) group, a hyperbaric oxygen group, a hyperbaric air group and a normobaric oxygen group, each of 12.A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was induced to all rats using the modified Zea-Longa's method of intraluminal filament occlusion, Except the MCAO group, the other 3 groups received corresponding hyperbaric oxygen, hyperbaric air and normobaric oxygen intervention once a day two hours after the suture insertion.The rats were sacrificed for double-label immunofluorescent analysis at 2 days, 3 days, 7 days and 14 days after brain ischemia.BrdU +/nestin + labeled the proliferated neural stem cells, and BrdU +/DCX + labeled its differentiated derivates, early neurons, in SGZ of ischemic hippocampus dentate gyrus.Also, the cell number was calculated under the fluorescence microscope.Results Two days after brain ischemia, the numbers of BrdU/nestin and BrdU/DCX cells in SGZ in the hyperbaric oxygen group were (2340.45 ± 1109.59) and (5520.66 ± 1103.09) respectively, which had increased significantly, compared with the hyperbaric air group and normobaric oxygen group (P < 0.05).Three and 7 days after brain ischemia, the numbers of BrdU/nestin and BrdU/DCX cells in SGZ in the hyperbaric oxygen group had shown significant increase compared with the other 3 groups (P < 0.05).Fourteen days after brain ischemia, the numbers of BrdU/DCX cells in SGZ in the hyperbaric oxygen group had significantly increased compared with the hyperbaric air group, normobaric oxygen group and the MCAO group (P < 0.05).Conclusion Hyperbaric oxygen promotes the proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells in ischemic SGZ.

In order to construct a novel multifunctional targeting nano-carrier based on pH-redox characteristics of tumor microenvironment,ketone bonds and disulfide bonds were bonded to the oligomeric hyaluronic acid (oHA) being sensitive to pH and the reduction environment.The chemical structure of oligomeric hyaluronic acid-8-mercaptomenthone 1,2-glycerolketal (oHMST) was characterized by 1H NMR,IR and ESI-MS.Curcuminloaded micelles were prepared by dialysis.The single factor investigation was carried out on the dosage form.Some properties,including particle size zeta potential,the morphology of micelles,and pH-sensitivity were studied.The materials were synthesized successfully.The micelles were spheric with a diameter of about 100 nm.The Zeta potential of the micelles was-(21.97 ± 1.08) mV.The in vitro test showed that oHMST carriers have good pH-sensitivity and redox-sensitivity.

Objective To investigate the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) combined with neural stem cell (NSC) transplantation on functional recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods Forty healthy adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a sham group,an SCI group,an NSC group and an HBO+NSC group.In the latter three groups,complete spinal cord transection was performed at T10.The rats of the HBO+NSC group were treated with HBO therapy after NSC transplantation.Hindlimb motor function was assessed with the BassoBeattie-Bresnahan (BBB) scale and tilt table testing.Motor evoked potentials (MEPs) were measured to evaluate the rats'nerve conduction function.The amount of surviving transplanted NSCs at the injured site was counted using Hoechst dyeing.Results The average BBB scores and tilt table test results in the HBO+NSCs group were significantly better than in the SCI and NSC groups from the 2nd week post-SCI.By the 4th week the average latency period and MEP amplitude in the HBO+NSC group were significantly better than in the NSC group,while MEPs in the SCI group still had not re-appeared.The surviving amount of transplanted NSCs in the HBO+NSC group was also significantly greater than in the NSC group.Conclusion HBO combined with NSC transplantation has synergistic effects and can improve functional recovery after SCI.This may be explained by the important role of HBO in promoting the survival of transplanted NSCs.
