Objective To investigate the effect of Xuebi-jing injection on the change of the serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD). Methods 86 patients with AECOPD were enrolled in this study, who was randomly divided into a control group (43 cases)and a treatment group (43 cases). Both treatment group and control group were given conventional therapy. On this basis, Xuebi-jing injection was added to the treatment group. Hs-CRP, blood gas analysis, blood cell count and severity of illness score (acute physiological and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ, APACHE Ⅱ) were monitored before and 5 days after treatment. Results There was no obvious difference of hs-CRP levels between two groups before treatment. Hs-CRP was decreased in both groups after the treatment, while the treatment group showed an obvious decrease compared with the control group (t=5.3302,P<0.01). Blood gas analysis, blood cecount, APACHE Ⅱ scores were improved after the treatment in both groups, while the improvement in treatment group showed obvious difference than the control group (t=13.5089、26.3077 、13.4053,P<0.01). Conclusion The conventional therapy plus Xuebi-jing injectiong for AECOPD can improve serum hs-CRP levels and improve the efficacy of AECOPD .

Recently the research of vaccines and drugs against anthrax is one of hot spots. The efficacy of anthrax vaccines and drugs can't be experimented in human, therefore the testing model is very important. The cell models mainly include CHO and J774A.1. Now, various kinds of animals including mice, rats, rabbits, and nonhuman primates were experimented as animal models. Because the models are different, the results of experiments are significantly different, sometimes they are contrary. Many experiments of Bacillus anthracis in different cell and animal models are reviewed, and the principles of choosing animal models of anthrax are discussed. In order to analyze the different results of experiments in different models, the pathogenesis of Bacillus anthracis and the researching progress of anthrax vaccines and drugs are also simply introduced .

This study was designed to investigate the correlation between autophagy and polarization of macrophages in atherosclerosis (AS) plaque in arteriosclerosis obliterans amputees. Femoral artery specimens from arteriosclerosis obliterans amputees were performed hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, oil red O and immunofluorescence staining to observe the morphology of atherosclerotic plaque, phenotype of macrophages and autophagy in plaque; using real-time quantitative RT-PCR technology to detect the mRNA level of M1 and M2 type markers in arterial tissue; to analyze polarized signal pathway and autophagy protein levels in macrophages by Western blotting. Arterial specimens staining showed obvious lipid deposition and obvious infiltration of amount of foam cells and inflammatory cells. Macrophages were mainly expression M1 type in percentage in fibrous plaque. Although both M1 and M2 macrophages were upregulated in atheromatous plaque, the increase was dominant in M2 type in percentage. The level of autophagy was significantly higher in the atheromatous plaque than that of fibrous plaque. The expression of tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF-α), monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-12 (IL-12) mRNA was significantly higher in fibrous plaque than that of atheromatous plaque (P < 0.01 or 0.05), and arginase-1 (Arg-1), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), CD163 and interleukin-10 (IL-10) mRNA was significantly lower than that in atheromatous plaque (P < 0.01). The levels of p-STAT1 and NF-κB were significantly increased in fibrous plaque (P < 0.01), while p-STAT6 expression was significantly increased in atheromatous plaque (P < 0.01). The level of LC3-II was significantly higher in atheromatous plaque than that in fibrous plaque (P < 0.01). Macrophages in early atherosclerotic plaque were induced to M1 type through p-STAT1/NF-κB pathway and expressed moderate levels of autophagy; while macrophages in advanced plaques were induced to polarization of M2 type through p-STAT6 pathway. M2 macrophages expressed a higher level of autophagy than M1 macrophages.
