Objective To observe the effects of trimetazidine (TMZ) on the cardiac function and neurohormonal of heart failure model in rats.Methods Partially banding abdominal aortic artery to achieve congestive heart failure rats model.Interventricular septum thickness(IVST),left ventricular posterior wall thickness(LVPWT),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and shortening fraction(FS) were measured by echocardiogram,Pathological changes of myocardial cells was observed,B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP)、C-type natriuretic peptide receptor (NPRC),atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP),myosin heavy chain (β-MHC) and angiotensinl (AT1) were measured by Real-Time PCR,superoxide dismutase (SOD) was measured by immunohistochemistry method.Results Trimetazidine treatment of the high-dose group and the model group compare IVST LVPWT,LVESD,LVEDD were (0.63 ± 0.05) mn,(0.73 ± 0.06) mm,(0.73 ±0.05)mm,(0.87 ±0.06)mm and (1.07 ±0.06)mm,(1.13 ±0.06) mm,(0.93 ±0.06)mm,(1.33 ±0.06) mm,was significantly reduced (P < 0.05),LVEF,FS increased to (27.75 ± 1.83) %,(11.44 ± 0.76) % and (11.78 ±0.56)%,(4.27 ± 0.22)% (P < 0.01),Myocardial cell structure were remarkably improved.The expression of BNP,ANP,NPRC,ATI,β-MHC were remarkably decreased.The expression of SOD was elevated.Conclusion TMZ treatment group can improve the secretion of neurohormonal of heart failure model in rats,and also obviously improve the cardiac contractility.

AIM: To establish a gas chromatography method for the determination of sabinene in ledum terpenes from Ledum palustry L. METHODS: 5% SE 30 was adopted as the stationary phase, the temperature of column was set at 65 ?C and FID detector with termperature at 200 ?C . RESULTS: Sabinene in the preparation was gained satisfactory separation and assay under the chromatographic condition. The calibration curve of sabinene was good linear in the range of 0.06 0.60 mg?mL -1 . with the corelation coefficient r=0.9998(n=6) . The average recovery of sabinene was 100.3%, RSD=1.4%, (n=5) . CONCLUSION: The method is simple, highly repeatable and accurate, and it can be used to control the quality of the preparation.
