The aim of the present study, performed on two different groups of volunteers, is to characterize the pharmacokinetics of lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide combined tablet. After administration of high, medium and low doses of lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide combined tablets, AUC and C(max) of two compounds both increase significantly with increase of dose. Neither normalized AUC/Dose nor C(max)/Dose has significant difference between every two tested dose groups. The similar results can be observed as for the parameters of t(max). Lisinopril and hydrochlorothiazide are both eliminated with linear characteristics. After repeated administration of lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide combined tablets, AUC, C(max) and C(min) of lisinopril in the steady state increase. AUC and C(min) increase significantly. As for hydrochlorothiazide, AUC, C(max), C(min), and t(max) also increase in steady state. AUC and C(min) increase significantly. Administered with the test medication, lisinopril has an fluctuation index (FI) value of 2.29 and reaches a relative steady concentration. But hydrochlorothiazide has an FI value of 4.09 with relatively large fluctuating concentrations.

Aim To investigate the effect of Icariin ( Ica) on remodeling of left ventricular in SHR and ex-plore the mechanism. Methods Twenty-one male SHR aged 14 weekswere randomly divided into model group(n=7), low-dose of Ica-treated group(20 mg· kg-1 . bid, n =7 ) , high-dose of Ica-treated group ( 40 mg·kg-1. bid,n=7), and WKY as control group(n=7 ) . Low- and high-dose of Ica-treated groups were given Ica from the age of 14 weeks to 26 weeks. The other rats in the model group and control group were given the same amount of double distilled water. Then, the content of hydroxyproline ( Hyp) was measured by ELISA. The morphological changes of the left ventricu-lar were observed by Masson staining. The mRNA and the protein expression of PPARα and PPARγ were ex-amined by real time RT-PCR and Western blot tech-nique respectively. Results Compared with the nor-mal control group, interstitium fibrosis and myofibrilla were lined up in disorder; the content of Hyp was in-creased and the mRNA and protein expression of PPARα and PPARγ were down-regulated in model group(P<0. 01). Compared with the model group,the myocardial cells were arranged less disorderly and the myocardial fibrosis was reduced; the content of Hyp was decreased in low-and high-dose of Ica-treated groups(P<0. 01 or P<0. 05);the mRNA and protein expression of PPARα and PPARγwere up-regulated in low- and high-dose of Ica-treated groups ( P <0. 01 or P<0. 05 ) . Conclusion Ica may attenuate left ven-tricular remodeling in SHR by up-regulating PPARαand PPARγ.

AIM: To detect the expression of the Calreticulin and HPV E2 Fusion Protein in B16, and study the effects on proliferation and apoptosis of B16 cell lines in vivo. METHODS: To construct eukaryotic fluoresce expression vector pEGFP-CRT-E2, pEGFP-CRT and pEGFP-E2. Then the recombinant plasmids were transfected into B16 cells by Lipofectamine 2000. The expression of proteins was detected by Western blot. The location of different GFP fusion proteins in B16 was tested by inverted fluoresce microscope. Flow cytometry was applied to detect the effects of fusion proteins on the growing of B16 and then the apoptosis effects of B16 induced by different proteins were observed. RESULTS: The correctly constructed recombinant plasmid pEGFP-CRT-E2 and the expression of CRT-E2 gene could be detected in B16 cells. Apoptosis of B16 cells could be detected after the transient transfection. Meanwhile, the apoptosis rate of B16 cells transfected by pEGFP-CRT-E2 was much higher than that of control cells. And cell cycle G1/G0 arrest was also found (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The eukaryotic expression plasmid pEGFP-CRT-E2 is successfully constructed and it could correctly express the fusion protein in B16 cells. And the B16 cells transfected by plasmid pEGFP-CRT-E2 could induce apoptosis.

Aims To observe the effect of Icariin( Ica) on apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cell in spontane-ously hypertensive rats( SHR) , and to explore its pos-sible mechanism. Methods 21 male SHR of 14 weeks were randomly divided into model groups, the Ica low and high dose groups (20 or 40 mg·kg-1 ,ig, bid, to 26 weeks ) , 14 week-old male homologous Kyoto rats ( WKY ) as control group, and the number of each group was 7 . WKY group and model group were ad-ministered by gavage with the same volume of double distilled water. The pathological changes were observed by using the HE staining and the apoptosis was detec-ted by TUNEL method in renal tubular epithelial cell, respectively. The mRNA levels of Bok, Bax, Bcl-2 were detected by the real time RT-PCR and the protein expressions of Bcl-2 , Bax and Active caspase-3 were detected by Western blot method in the renal tissue. Results Compared with WKY, renal capsule was nar-row and irregular, and glomerular mesangial matrix was increased with the cell arrangement disorder and the capillary dilation and congestion. Several glomeruli shrank and renal tubular epithelial cell was edema with luminal stenosis in model group. The apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cell was evident and the mRNA levels of Bok and Bax, as well as the protein expressions of Bax and Active caspase-3 were significantly up-regula-ted in model group, while the mRNA Level and protein expression of Bcl-2 significantly down-regulated ( P <0. 05 or P<0. 01). Compared with model group, renal glomerular capsule widened, proliferation of glomerular mesangial matrix was reduced, and cell arrangement disorder and capillary dilation and renal tubular lumen stenosis were improved in Ica group. Renal tubular ep-ithelial cell apoptosis was decreased evidently, and the mRNA level of Bax, Bok and protein expression of Bax were significantly down-regulated in Ica group, and the mRNA level and protein expression of Bcl-2 in Ica-H group were significantly up-regulated while the protein expression of Active caspase-3 significantly down-regu-lated( P <0. 05 or P <0. 01 ) . Conclusion Ica can inhibit the apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cell in spontaneously hypertensive rats and its mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of Bok, Bax, and Active caspase-3 , accompanied with the up-regulation of Bcl-2 .

Objective To explore the mechanism of radio-resistance of breast cancer stem cells by investigating the effects of ionzing radiation on the reactive oxygen species (ROS),apoptosis and cycle distribution.Methods The breast cancer MCF-7 cells were suspension cultured in serum-free medium containing a variety of growth factors. There were MCF-7 (breast cancer cells),MCF-7-S (breast cancer stem cells),MCF-7+8 Gy and MCF-7-S+8 Gy groups in the experiment. 4-24 h after 8 Gy irradiation, the ROS levels, percentages of apoptotic cells and percentages of the cells at each cycle phage were measured by FCM with 2′, 7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA ), Annexin Ⅴ-FITC/PI and PI staining, respectively. Results The breast cancer stem cell microsphere accumulated hundreds of cells were obtained successfully at 7 d after suspension culture with serum-free medium containing a variety of growth factors;the FCM results showed that CD44+CD24- phenotype breast stem cells were up to 75.20%.With the time prolongation,the ROS levels and apoptosis in MCF-7 group and MCF-7-S group showed increasing trendency, and reached for the maximum values at 12 and 24 h;the ROS levels in MCF-7-S group were significantly lower than those in MCF-7 group at 4,8,12 and 24 h (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the percentage of apoptotic cells in MCF-7-S group was significantly higher than that in MCF-7 group only at 8 h(P<0.05);the ROS levels (4,8,12 and 24 h)and percentage of apoptotic cells(12 h)were significantly increased in MCF-7+8 Gy group (P<0.05),and the percentages of apoptotic cells (4,8,12 and 24 h)in MCF-7-S +8 Gy group were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01),but the ROS levels had no obvious change in MCF-7-S+8 Gy.At 12 h,as compared with MCF-7 group,the percentages of the cells at G0/G1 phase and G2/M phase in MCF-7-S group were significantly decreased (P<0.05),and the percentage of the cells at S phase was significantly increased (P<0.05 );the percentage of the cells at G2/M phase in MCF-7+8 Gy group was significantly increased (P<0.05 ), but there were no significant changes in MCF-7-S+ 8 Gy group. Conclusion Ionizing irradiation can cause the increasing of ROS level and apoptosis and G2/M phase arrest in breast cancer cells,but has no obvious effects on the breast cancer stem cells;it indicates that radio-resistance might be related to ROS level,apoptosis and G2/M phase arrest.
