Objective To study the effects of the recipe for activating blood circulation and nourishing qi on expression of mitochondrial ribosomal protein L51 (MRPL51) in CVB3 infection model in rat cardiac myocytes, to reveal the pathogenesis of CVB3 myocarditis in the genetic level, to explore the therapeutic mechanism of the recipe for activating blood circulation and nourishing qi on CVB3 myocarditis, and to confirm the validity of the recipe for activating blood circulation and nourishing qi on CVB3 myocarditis. Methods After establishing CVB3 infection model and treatment model with recipe for activating blood circulation and nourishing qi by culturing neonatal rat myocardial cells, a modified suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) was used to isolate differentially expressed genes between two model groups. These results were further verified by fluorescence RT-PCR. Results The results of SSH showed that gene expression of the treatment group was lower than that of the CVB3 infection group. The results of fluorescent RT-PCR which agreed with that of SSH displayed the threshold cycle number (Ct) in the treatment group was higher than the virus group. Conclusion Up-regulation of MRPL51 might be one of the pathogenesis of CVB3 myocarditis. The recipe for activating blood circulation and nourishing qi could treat viral myocarditis by regulating the expression of MRPL51.

[ Objective ] To supply a technological evidence for the rapid reproduction of Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees (APN). [Methods] Different explants from sterile seedling of Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees were cultured in vitro to induce the production of fascicular buds. [ Results ] Cotyledon with nodes and half cotyledon with nodes were the most suitable explants for culture, and the budding rate was 100% and over 90% respectively. 6-Benzylaminopurine (BA) in the concentrations of 0.5 ~ 1.0mg/L were beneficial for the reproduction and growth of buds. The age of explants had no correlation with budding. The optimal rooting medium was MT (Murashige and Tucher) medium added with Img/L NAA (naphthaleneacetic acid) or IBA (indolebutyric acid). A highest rooting rate as much as 61.9% was achieved after 10 days of culture. [Conclusion] An effective plant regeneration system has been established for explants of Andrographis paniculata (Burm. f.) Nees.

The sterile stem tips, nodular and non-nodular stem of Morinda officinalis How were cultured in vitro. The results showed that the most suitable procedure for sterilization of explants was soaking into 0.1% HgCl 2 solution for 10 to 15 minutes after pretreating with 70% ethanol for 30 seconds. MT culture medium with BA was effective to induce direct shooting of stem tips and nodular stem, the shooting rate of nodular stem being 97.5% . The optimal BA concentration was 1 mg?L -1 , the shooting rate would decrease when the concentration of BA increased. As for the induction of rooting, MT culture medium adding with 0.2 to 0.5 mg?L -1 NAA was optimal, the rooting rate being over 80.0% .
