OBJECTIVE:To investigate therapeutic efficacy and safety of Naoxintong capsules combined with edaravone in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction. METHODS:80 patients with acute cerebral infarction were analyzed retrospectively and divid-ed into observation group (40 cases) and control group (40 cases) according to drug use. Both groups was given Aspirin enter-ic-coated tablets 10 mg orally,once a day,to control platelet aggregation,20% Mannitol injection 250 mL intravenously,every 12 hours,to control brain edema,Potassium chloride sustained-release tablets 0.5 g orally,3 times a day,to maintain water and elec-trolyte balance and other conventional treatment. Control group was additionally given Edaravone injection 30 mg added into 0.9%Sodium chloride injection 100 mL intravenously within 30 min,once a day;observation group was additionally given Naoxintong capsules 1.6 g,3 times a day on the basis of control group. Treatment course of both groups lasted for 10 d. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were observed as well as the ET-1 and NO content,IL-8,hs-CRP,FT3,FT4 and TSH level,NIHSS and ADL score,the occurrence of ADR before and after treatment. RESULTS:Total response rate of observation group was significantly higher than that of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the ET-1 and NO content,IL-8,hs-CRP,FT3,FT4 and TSH level,NIHSS and ADL score between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,the ET-1 content,IL-8 and hs-CRP level,NIHSS score in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and the observation group was lower than the control group;the NO content,TSH,ADL score in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and the ob-servation groups was higher than the control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the levels of FT3 and FT4 between 2 groups before and after treatment(P>0.05). No severe ADR was found in 2 groups. CON-CLUSIONS:Based on routine treatment,Naoxintong capsules combined with edaravone in the treatment of acute cerebral infarc-tion can improve therapeutic efficacy and vascular endothelial function,relieve inflammatory reaction and recue TSH levels,more-over,don't increase the occurrence of ADR.

AIM:To investigate the ability of a metal complex ammonium tetrathiomolybdate (ATTM) to re-lease H2 S and its cytoprotective effect on an oxidative injury model .METHODS:Released H2 S was absorbed in a reaction flask from ATTM dissolved in the cell medium .Staining with dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate or rhodamine 123 fol-lowed by photofluorography was conducted for the observation of reactive oxygen species ( ROS) and mitochondrial mem-brane potential (ΔΨm) levels, respectively.Cell viability and release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from the cells were measured with commercial kits.RESULTS:Similar to another H2S donor GYY4137, ATTM had an ability to release H2S in the cell medium in a dose-dependent manner .Treatment of human skin HaCaT cells with ATTM at concentrations of 25~400 μmol/L didn’ t significantly alter cell viability .Exposure of the cells to ultraviolet rays or a ROS donor H 2 O2 in-creased the intracellular ROS levels .Treatment with 400 μmol/L H2 O2 significantly reduced the viability of HaCaT cells (P<0.01).However, before the treatment with H2O2, pretreatment with ATTM at 100 and 200 μmol/L markedly pre-vented the H2O2-induced cell injury (P<0.01).In addition, the treatment with H2O2 triggeredΔΨm loss (P<0.01) and LDH release from the cells (P<0.01).Prior to suffering from H2O2 injury, the preconditioning with 200 μmol/L ATTM significantly improved ΔΨm levels ( P<0.05 ) and attenuated LDH release from the cells ( P<0.01 ) .CONCLUSION:ATTM is capable of releasing H 2 S and protecting human skin cells against oxidative injury .

Objective To detect the expression of Cancer-Testis antigen NY-ESO-1 in human laryngeal squamous carcinoma (LSC) and to explore its significance in immunotherapeutic application. Methods The expressions of NY-ESO-1 protein in the LSC and in the pathologically positive lymph nodes were detected by PV-9000 Immunohistochemistry. Western blotting was also employed to measure the expressions of NY-ESO-1 in the tumor core region(TC), the tissues at the sites of 0.5cm, 1.0cm away from LSC periphery and the distant normal larynx tissues. Results NY-ESO-1 protein expression was positive in 30 out of 69 (43.48 %) cases of LSC. The expression level of NY-ESO-1 protein were found to significantly decrease by tums in TC and corresponding adjacent tissues (P ＜0.01). None of the nine normal larynx tissues expressed NY-ESO-1 protein.It did not display an obvious correlation between the expression of NY-ESO-1 with T staging, pathological grading and lymph node metastasis (P ＞0.05). Its positive expression was found in pathologically positive cervical lymph nodes, which were significantly lower than that in the primary site (P ＜0.05). Conclusion NY-ESO-1 protein express at high level in human laryngeal squamous carcinoma, and they may play a role in genesis and development of tumors, which suggests that NY-ESO-1 gene might be used as target antigens for immunotherapy of LSC and the further research is necessary.

Meanwhile, the family support system should be improved to enhance their sense of competence and participation in maternal and infant care and promote maternal and infant health.

OBJECTIVE To study the protective effects of twin drugs of tetramethylpyrazine-scutellarein （TMSC4） on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury （CIRI） model rats and its mechanism. METHODS One hundred and five SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group， scutellarein group （0.7 mmol/kg）， tetramethylpyrazine group （0.7 mmol/kg）， and TMSC4 low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （0.35， 0.7， 1.4 mmol/kg）， with 15 rats in each group. Sham operation group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intragastrically， and other groups were given relevant drug intragastrically， once a day， for consecutive 14 d. Except for sham operation group， all other groups were treated to establish the CIRI model using the thread occlusion method. After 2 hours of ischemia and 22 hours of reperfusion， the brain index and brain water content of the rats were measured. Serum levels of interleukin 1β （IL-1β）， IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor α （TNF-α）， the levels of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） and catalase （CAT） in brain tissues， the situation of neuronal cell apoptosis， and the protein expressions of B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax） and cleaved-caspase-3 were evaluated. RESULTS Compared with sham operation group， the brain index， brain water content， the serum levels of IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α， the levels of MDA in brain tissues， the brain cell apoptosis and the protein expressions of Bax and cleaved-caspase-3 in model group were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the levels of SOD， GSH- Px and CAT and the protein expression of Bcl-2 in brain tissues were significantly decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group， the above indexes of rats were reversed significantly in administration groups （P＜0.05）， while the reverse effects of TMSC4 medium-dose and high-dose groups were significantly better than those of scutellarein group and tetramethylpyrazine group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS TMSC4 has a certain protective effect in CIRI model rats， the mechanism of which may be related to relieving inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress， inhibiting cell apoptosis.
