Objective:To study the protective effect of polysaccharide from Rose roxburghii Tratt (RRTP-1) on neural stem cells damaged by glutamic acid (Glu). Method: RRTP-1 was obtained by ion exchange column chromatography and gel chromatography. The neural stem cells were cultured from the striata of fetal mice and damaged by glutamic acid to simulate hypoxic-ischemic brain injury. The cultures were divided into control group, glutamic acid group and test groups in which different doses of RRTP-1 were added with glutamic acid. The death rate of neural stem cells damaged by Glu and LDH leakage were observed. Results:The neural stem cells damage of test groups were alleviated,and the death rate of neural stem cells and LDH leakage of high dose test group were significantly lower than glutamic acid group. Conclusion:RRTP-1 has remarkable protective effect on neural stem cells damage.

Objective:To investigate the influence of combined application of histone deacetylase inhibitor(HDACi)MS-275 and 5-FU on the apoptosis and cycle arrest on human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and unclose the related mechanism.Methods:Divided all the cells into 4 groups:control group,MS-275 group,5-FU group and drug combination group.Flow cytometry(FCM)was used to examine the effects of 5-FU with MS-275 on the apoptosis and cell cycle of HepG2 cells.Bcl-2,Bax,CyclinD1 and P21 protein were determined by Western blot assay.Results:5-FU and MS-275 combination could inhibit HepG2 cell growth through G0-G1 arrest,and induce apoptosis,both time and dose dependently.The combination of two agents increased P21 protein levels and decreased Bcl-2,CyclinD1 protein levels.The levels of Bax protein were not changed.Conclusion:The combination of 5-FU and MS-275 can induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest,the effect might be associated with down-regulating expression of Cyclin D1 and Bcl-2 protein and upregulating the expression of P21 protein.
