Object To study the effect of puerarin on the expression of inflammatory factors and miR-155-3p in human umbilical vein endothelial cells ( HUVEC) induced by visfatin.Methods The HUVEC cell injury model was es-tablished with visfatin.Cell proliferation was measured by MTT assay.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.The level of CRP and NF-κB was detected by ELISA, and the expression of miR-155-3p was detected by RT-PCR.The expres-sion of myeloid differentiation factor 88 ( MyD88) was identified by western blotting.Results Visfatin induced cell prolif-eration and inhibited apoptosis in HUVEC, meanwhile the expressions of both CRP and NF-κB were significantly increased, compared with that of the control group (P<0.01).Puerarin at moderate and high concentrations obviously reduced the HUVEC injury induced by visfatin, mainly through down-regulating the expression of CRP and NF-κB, as well as up-regu-lating the level of miR-155-3p in the HUVEC.MiR-155-3p mimic markedly decreased the level of MyD88, CRP and NF-κB in the HUVEC induced by visfatin (P<0.05).Conclusions Pueprarin obviously alleviates HUVEC injury induced by visfatin, probably related to down-regulating the level of MyD88, CRP, NF-κB, and up-regulating the expression of miR-155-3p in HUVEC.

In order to search for new antiplatelet agents with higher potency, a series of tetramethylpyrazine ( TMP) /chalcone hybrids ( 2-26) were synthesized and evaluated based on the principle of bioisostere and hybrid-ization. They exerted inhibitory activity against adenosine diphosphate ( ADP )-induced and arachidonic acid ( AA)-induced platelet aggregation to varied extent. Among them, compound 8 was the most potent with IC50 of 0. 14 mmol/L on ADP-induced platelet aggregation ( 9. 1 folds of TMP and 10. 5 folds of chalcone ) and 0. 09 mmol/L on AA-induced platelet aggregation ( 8. 8 folds of TMP and 10. 0 folds of chalcone) , which was superior to clinically used anti-platelet drug aspirin ( ASP, IC50 =0. 15 mmol/L) .

Objective To study the effect of a Chinese medicine, Huanglian Jiedu Decoction ( HLJDD) , on ath-erosclerotic plaque, inflammatory factors and regulatory T cells in ApoE-/- mice. Methods High fat diet was given to ApoE-/- mice to establish an atherosclerosis model. 40 male ApoE-/- mice were randomly divided into five groups:model group, simvastatin group, low, moderate and high dose HLJDD groups (n =8). HLJDD was intragastrically administered in a dose of 3. 5, 7. 0, or 14. 0 g/( kg?bw) once dailg for 16 weeks. The dose of simvastatin was 5. 0 g/( kg?bw). An-other 8 male C57BL/6J mice were taken as control group. At the end of the 29-week experiment, all of the mice were sacri-ficed. The aortic plaques, level of blood lipids, inflammatory factors, Tregs number and the level of Foxp3 mRNA were de-tected and analyzed by ELISA, flow cytometry and RT-PCR, respectively. Results Compared with the control group, the aortic plaques were much larger in the model group, and the levels of TC, TG, LDL-C, IL-6, hs-CRP, and TNF-α were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0. 01 for all). Meanwhile, the levels of HDL-C, IL-10, TGF-βand Foxp3 mRNA were much lower than those in the control group ( P<0. 01 for all) , and the Tregs numbers were less than that in the control group (P<0. 01). HLJDD regulated the blood lipids in ApoE-/ - mice and decreased the levels of IL-6, hs-CRP, andTNF-α, however increased the levels of IL-10, TGF-β and Foxp3 mRNA. At the same time, it in-creased Tregs number in the ApoE-/ - mice. Compared with the model group, the difference was statistically significancet (P<0. 01). Conclusions HLJDD can significantly alleviate the aortic plaque damages in ApoE-/ - mice. It may be re-lated to the up-regulation of Tregs, which can lead to decrease the expression of serum pro-inflammatory factors such like IL-10, hs-CRP and TNF-α.
