Objective To observe the inhibitory effects of Typhonium Giganteum soft capsules on tumor growth in Hep-2 tumor-bearing nude mice and its effects on the expression of tumor suppressor p53 gene; To discuss its mechanism of action.Methods Human liver cancer Hep-2 cell suspension back subcutaneous vaccination was conducted to prepare tumor models. BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into model group, cisplatinum group, and TCM high-, medium-, and low-dose groups. Each group was given relevant medicine for gavage, once a day for 21 days. Growth changes of tumor volume were monitored; HE staining was used to observe pathological changes of tumor tissues; RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of p53 gene in tumor tissue of Hep-2 nude mice.Results Compared with the model group, all medication groups could inhibit the tumor growth, and the anti-tumor rates were 55.1%, 42.8%, 30.1%, and 79.5%, respectively; the expression of p53 gene increased; pathological observation results showed that the number and the volume of tumor cells increased, with cytoplasm rarefaction and nucleus anachromasis. All medication groups had karyopyknosis, slight staining, and decreasing blood capillary and focal necrosis in varying degrees.ConclusionTyphonium Giganteum soft capsules can inhibit the growth of human liver cancer, and its mechanism may be associated with the up-regulating expression of p53 gene leading to apoptosis.

Objective To observe the variation of helper T cell (Th)9/regular T cell (Treg cell) balance in the inflammatory process of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.Methods Two hundred patients with chronic HBV infection in Zhejiang Hospital of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine during August 2011 to June 2012 were divided into four groups according to alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels.:chronic HBV carriers,chronic hepatitis B (CHB) with mildly [upper limit of normal (ULN)＜ALT＜3 × ULN],moderately (3 × ULN＜ALT＜5 × ULN),or significantly (ALT＞5 × ULN) elevated ALT,with 50 subjects in each group.In addition,30 healthy volunteers were enrolled as healthy controls (HC).ALT levels,HBV DNA,and Th9/Treg levels were measured by automatic biochemical analyzing equipment,real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction and flow cytometry,respectively.Th9/Treg levels of each group were observed.Means between groups were compared by t test,means of multiple groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance.Spearman rank correlation was used for correlation analysis.Results Age,sex distribution and HBV DNA levels of the four groups were comparable (P＞0.05).ALT levels of HC were significantly different from those of mildly,moderately,or significantly elevated ALT (t=8.48,18.41,28.93; all P＜0.05).Th9 cell levels,Treg cell levels and Th9/Treg ratio of HBV infected individuals were significantly different from those of HC (P＜0.05).With the increasing degree of inflammation,proportion of Th9 cells increased and Treg cells decreased gradually.The differences among the four groups were of statistical significance (P＜ 0.05).Th9 cell level was positively correlated with ALT (r=0.804,P=0.01),while Treg cell level was negatively correlated with ALT (r=-0.828,P=0.01).Conclusions Th9/Treg is imbalanced in patients with HBV infection,and closely correlated with ALT levels.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment of acute postrenal acute renal dysfunction associated with ceftriaxone.Methods Twenty-five cases of the ceftriaxione-associated acute postrenal renal insufficiency were reviewed.There were 16 males and 9 females,mean age 28years.The serum contents of BUN and Cr were ( 18.6 ± 7.0) mmol/L and (635.5 ± 248.7 ) μmol/L,respectively.All patients were divided into two groups depending on the therapy:11 patients accepted the drug therapy (alkalinization of the urine,antispasmodic,etc) and 14 patients accepted the intraureteral cannula.The clinical characteristics and the treatment effect were compared between the 2 groups.Results The patients of the intraureteral cannula group ( 1.4 ± O.7 d) went to hospital earlier than the drug therapy group (3.0 ± 1.4 d) ( P =0.045 ) after the symptom of oliguria or anuria appeared.There were no significant differences in serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,and the age between the 2 groups ( P ＞ 0.05 ).All the patients were cured after treatment.There were no significant differences in recovery time (2.9 ± 1.1 d and 3.2 ± 1.2 d,P =0.963) and hospitalization time (7.0 ±2.3 d and 5.9 +3.9 d,P =0.568) between the 2 groups.Conclusions The acute renal failure associated with ceftriaxone should have high attention.The prompt medical attention,including the intraureteral eannula and the drug therapy,can both achieve the satisfying curative effect.

Objective To investigate the effect of m il d hypothermia on the content of Ca 2+、Mg 2+、EAA in rat brain tissue and ET in plasma after acute cerebral infarction. Methods Forty-eight Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned into trial group and control group. Using the method of reformed line-thrombosis,the cerebral in farction models were established. The rats in the trial-group were cooled by mi ld hypothermia for half an hour, while those in the control group were subjected to no disposal. Every group was divided into 4 sub-groups according to the pos t-infarction disposal time. Every sub-group was composed of 6 SD rats and kill ed at the time points of 1 hour,2 hour,4 hour and 8 hour after infarction, respe ctively. Then the content of Ca 2+、Mg 2+、EAA in rat brain tissue an d ET in plasma were measured. ResultsThe post-infar ction content of Ca 2+、EAA and ET of trial-group increased mildly and Mg 2+ reduced very little. There was a significant statistical difference bet ween the trial group and the control group. Conclusion Mild hypothermia may significantly reverse the increase of the content of Ca 2+ and EAA and the fall of Mg 2+ and the increment of ET in plasma as well after acute cerebral infarction in experimental animals. So as a result, m ild hypothermia possesses protective effect on brain.

Acetic acid, as a main by-product generated in the pretreatment process of lignocellulose hydrolysis, significantly affects cell growth and lipid synthesis of oleaginous microorganisms. Therefore, we studied the tolerance of Rhodotorula glutinis to acetic acid and its lipid synthesis from substrate containing acetic acid. In the mixed sugar medium containing 6 g/L glucose and 44 g/L xylose, and supplemented with acetic acid, the cell growth was not:inhibited when the acetic acid concentration was below 10 g/L. Compared with the control, the biomass, lipid concentration and lipid content of R. glutinis increased 21.5%, 171% and 122% respectively when acetic acid concentration was 10 g/L. Furthermore, R. glutinis could accumulate lipid with acetate as the sole carbon source. Lipid concentration and lipid yield reached 3.20 g/L and 13% respectively with the initial acetic acid concentration of 25 g/L. The lipid composition was analyzed by gas chromatograph. The main composition of lipid produced with acetic acid was palmitic acid, stearic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and linolenic acid, including 40.9% saturated fatty acids and 59.1% unsaturated fatty acids. The lipid composition was similar to that of plant oil, indicating that lipid from oleaginous yeast R. glutinis had potential as the feedstock of biodiesel production. These results demonstrated that a certain concentration of acetic acid need not to be removed in the detoxification process when using lignocelluloses hydrolysate to produce microbial lipid by R. glutinis.
