In the 1960s, modern science began involving the essence of heat syndrome, but there have still no in-depth systematic studies on pathological mechanisms of heat syndrome and action mechanisms of cold and cool herbs. In this study, the animal model with heat syndrome was set up by feeding herbs with hot property, and then cold and cool herbs was applied in the experimental therapy. The two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry technologies were adopted to compare the liver mitochondria proteome of the rats of the heat syndrome model and the ones treated with cold and cool herbs, so as to discover specificity-related proteins after heat syndrome and treatment with cold and cool herbs.

HPLC fingerprint of Congrong Zonggan capsule was established in order to provide basis for quality evaluation. With acteoside as the reference, HPLC was adopted for fingerprint analysis on Congrong Zonggan capsule. The chromatographic conditions wereas follows. Waters C18 column (4.6 mm x 150 mm, 5 μm) was used, with methylalcohol-0.1% formic acid as the mobile phase for gradient elution at the flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The detection wavelength was 330 nm, and the column temperature was 30 °C. This method was highly accurate and reproducible. All of the 13 components in tested samples reached the baseline resolved peak, and 15 batches of finished products showed the similarity of above 0.95. The method was accurate and feasible and could be used as a simple and effective method to evaluate the quality of the traditional Chinese medicines.

Objective To establish and evaluate a reliable and highly reproducible neonatal rat model of hyper-bilirubinemia and to provide an experimental basis for research of kernicterus and related mechanism of neuroinjury.Meth-ods Sixty 7-day old SD rats (28 male and 32 female) were used in this study.Three doses of phenylhydrazine hydrochlo-ride (25, 50, and 75 mg/kg) were intraperitoneally injected respectively to the neonatal rats to establish models of hyper-bilirubinemia induced by hemolysis.The control group was set up at the same time.48 hours after the experimental treat-ment, the bilirubin in blood and brain tissue, neuron-specific enolase (NSE) of brain tissue, and hemoglobin were detec-ted to evaluate the models.Results Compared with the control group, the bilirubin in the blood and brain tissue and the brain tissue NSE in the three experimental groups were significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), while hemoglobin content was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05).The bilirubin of blood and brain tis-sue and brain tissue NSE in the 50 mg/kg and 75 mg/kg dose phenylhydrazine hydrochloride groups were significantly high-er than that of the 25 mg/kg dose group ( P<0.05) , while hemoglobin content was significantly lower than that of the 25 mg/kg dose group ( P<0.05 ) .There were no significant differences between the 50 mg and 75 mg dose groups ( P>0.05).Conclusions Intraperitoneal injection of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride can be used to produce neonatal rat mod-els of hyperbilirubinemia, mimicking the clinical features of this disease, and 50 mg/kg of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride is the best concentration.It is an ideal method to establish newborn rat models of hyperbilirubinemia.

Objective To establish the newborn rhesus monkey model of hemolytic hyperbilirnbinemia and provide an experimental basic model for research of hyperbilirubinemia.Methods Sixteen 3-day old newborn rhesus monkeys were divided into experimental group and control group,with 8 newborn rhesus monkeys in each group.Eight newborn rhesus monkeys in experimental group were treated with intravenous injection of l0 g/L phenylhydrazine hydrochloride (50 mg/kg) to establish model of homolytic hyperbilirubinemia.The newborn rhesus monkeys in control group were treated with intravenous injection of 9 g/L saline at the same time.Twenty-four hours and 48 hours after the experimental treatment,the bilirubin in blood was detected to evaluate the models,and the clinical manifestations of newborn rhesus monkeys with hyperbilirubinemia were recorded by using monitoring equipment.The brain slices were made to evaluate the model in 1 dead monkeys of experimental group.Results The newborn rhesus monkey of experimental group showed obvious skin,sclera jaundice and hemoglobinuria.The serum total bilirubin [(252.76 ± 63.42) μmol/L],unconjugated bilirubin[(165.85 ±44.93) pmol/L] and conjugated bilirubin [(87.16 ±21.22) μmol/L] in the experimental group were significantly higher than those [(20.62 ± 5.72) μmol/L,(7.93 ± 2.31) μmol/L,(12.51 ± 3.53) μmol/L] in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (t =14.581,13.881,14.040,all P < 0.01).The level of hemoglobin [(47.18 ± 10.09) μmol/L] in the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group [(136.85 ± 13.48) μmol/L],and the difference was statistically significant (t =-21.308,P < 0.01).The results of pathological showed brain edema,rupture and eosinophilic and bilirubin deposition in the basal nuclei,and necrosis appeared in some severe parts.And there were different degrees of retardation and coordination disorders in the experimental group(s) newborn rhesus monkeys,but gradually returned to normal in 4 months later.Conclusion Intravenous injection of phenylhydrazine hydrochloride can be used to produce newborn rhesus monkey models of hemolytic hyperbilirubinemia.

Objective Our purpose was to improve the konwlege and diagnosis level of esophageal intramural pseudodiverticulosis(EIPD).Methods All 3 cases were underwent single and double contrast esophagograms.Analyze the findings on esophagography in 3 cases.Results Multiple small tiny cyst like outpouchings with a narrow neck extending outward esophageal wall were found in all of the 3 cases, the length range of outpouchings diameter was 1-4 mm,and the length range of neck was 1-2 mm,the pseudodiverticula had a diffuse distribution in 2 cases,and segmental distribution on the middle and the lower esophagus in the other case.Some necks of pseudodiverticula incline to stomach with 30?-45? in 2 cases;and intramural tracking was found in 1 case,the length range of tracking was 5-10 mm;esophageal stenosis in esophagogastic junction and reflux esophagitis was found only in 1 case;1 case underwent endoscopy and ostiums of pseudodiverticula were found;biopsy showed submucosal chronic inflammation surrounding the neck of pseudodiverticula,squamous metaplasia of the epithelium in both the neck and outpouchings.Conclusion EIPD is a rare benign disorder characterized by dilation of the submucosal glands.The value of esophagography is to distinguish sublimes ulcer caused by esophagitis and esophageal fenestrate from EIPD.The characteristic radiographic appearance is numerous intramural esophageal contrast-filled cystiform outpouchings,and some necks incline in the direction of stomach.When the typical appearance found on barium studies,the diagnosis of EIPD can be made.
