Objective To investigate the effects of Stichopus variegatus mucopolysaccharide on plasma nitric oxide (NO) and serum endothelin(ET) after angioplasty in rabbits. Methods 50 New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into four groups: Stichopus group, simvastatin group, model group and normal group. Endothelium of iliac arteries in Stichopus group, simvastatin group and model group were denuded by balloon catheter and the rabbits were fed with 2%cholesterol, 3%lard and 3%yolk mixed forage for six weeks, and then, atherosclerotic stenosis was showed by iliac angiography.When transluminal balloon angioplasty was done, from then on the feeds was changed from high cholesterol to ordinary forage. Stichopus (0.5g?kg -1?d -1) and simvastatin (0.5mg?kg -1?d -1) were given by gastric canal. While NaCl solution (0.9%) was given in model group. All rabbits were fed in separate cages and free drinking. After four weeks since transluminal balloon angioplasty, blood was collected from carotid artery to measure the changes of concentrations of endothelin(ET) and nitric oxide(NO). Examination of pathology by optical and electron microscope were done at same time. Results After four weeks since transluminal angioplasty, the concentration of plasm ET in model group increased significantly compared with the normal group(114.86?24.89 ng?L -1 vs 75.62?9.68 ng?L -1) and serum NO decreased significantly(37.50? 12.79?mol?L -1 vs 106.37?18.01 ?mol?L -1).The concentration of plasm ET in model group was higher than that in the simvastatin groups and Stichopus groups(114.86?24.89 ng?L -1 , 81.08?14.71 ng?L -1 and 83.34?11.41 ng?L -1 ,respectively),and the concentration of serum NO decreased obviously(95.63?8.62 ?mol?L -1,98.80?9.06 ?mol?L -1 and 37.50?12.79 ?mol?L -1,respectively). Conclusion After iliac arterial TA the concentrations of plasm ET were increased and the serum NO were decreased, the endothelial function fell into disorder. The Stichopus variegatus mucopolysaccharide had the effects of improving the endothelial function after angioplasty in rabbits by adjustment of plasm ET and serum NO.

Objective To establish the sensitive,specific,stable and convenient immunoradio assay for detecting human soluble IL-6R?.Methods The hybridoma cell lines were obtained by fusing spleen cells of BALB/c mice that had been immunized with soluble IL-6R? protein to mouse myeloma cells sp2/0. Ascites were used to produce the monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). The mAbs were purified by protein G immunoaffinity method. The mAb SI10 was used as coating antibody, the other mAb H126 recognized different epitope from SI10 was labeled by 125I. Results The immunoradio assay for detecting soluble IL-6R? was set up. It has high stability and accuracy. The detecting limit is 10 ng/ml. The serum concentration of soluble IL-6R? is (81.96 ? 7.23) ng/ml in healthy donors and (237.58?70.96) ng/ml in patients with multiple myeloma. Significant difference was founded between two groups (P

Objective:To evaluate the effect of Vitapex in root canal therapy (RCT) for infected permanent teeth.Methods:159 permanent teeth with chronic periapical periodontitis were treated by RCT, and the canals were filled with Vitapex (in 54 teeth),ZOE (in 52 teeth) and ZOE plus iodoform (in 53 teeth) respectively.The effects were evaluated by clinical and radiological observation.Results:The ratio (%) of apical tissue reaction in 3 days following RCT in the group of Vitapex,ZOE and ZOE plus iodoform was 14.8,59.6 and 50.9 (P0.05) respectively.Conclusion:Vitapex is effective in the treatment of infected root canals.

Objective:On the basis of the use of chemical methods to establish mouse model of lupus nephritis and its biological identification , we investigate the reverse effect of pathological lesions of B 7-1 human-mouse chimeric antibody blockade against B7/D28 signaling pathway in mice with lupus nephritis model.Methods:Pristane was injected intraperitoneally to 6-week-old female C57BL/6J mice at dose of 0.5 ml per mouse in one go,and urine protein,ANA and renal pathological changes were detected on a monthly basis.Mice whose urine protein content reached ++and ANA fluorescence intensity reached ++were randomly devided into three groups ,five each.Antibody intervention group was sequentially injected with B 7-1-mouse chimeric antibody by orbital venous , positive control group was injected with immunosuppressant CTX , negative control group was injected with isotype control IgG.Urine protein and ANA were also detected on a monthly basis.Mice were sacrificed three months after intervention was executed.Kidney was used for H&E dying , IC detection and electric microscope observation.Results: After four-month Pristane induction , urine protein content of 80%mice reached +-+++,meanwhile,serum ANA fluorescence intensity reached ++-+++.Glomerulonephritis infiltrating cells were observed Mice with urine protein and ANA , glomerular inflammatory cell infiltration , tubular epithelial cell degeneration visible edema ,vascular congestion significantly ,fibrosis.After antibody intervention ,urine protein content in antibody intervention group gradually reduced from ++-+++to ±-+++,ANA ++-+++to +-++,and were significantly different from that in the negative control group ( P<0.01 ).Analysis of kidney H&E dying showed that antibody glomerular infiltration of inflammatory cells in the intervention group and tubular congestion and other symptoms were improved significantly.Immunofluorescence staining indicated that fluorescence intensity of IC was significantly reduced in the antibody intervention group.Electron dense deposits reduction and glomerular basement membrane uniformity were observed in antibody intervention group by electric microscope when compared with the negative control group.Conclusion:B7-1 antibodies could downregulate immune response through inhibiting B 7-1/CD28 signaling pathway , reducing the production of autoantibodies and reversing pathological damage caused by autoimmune response .

As a rare Chinese medicinal material, Paridis Rhizoma is mainly distributed in Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guizhou in southwestern China, with the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, alleviating edema and relieving pain, cooling liver and tranquilizing mind. It is particularly effective for injuries from falls, fractures, contusions and strains, snake bites, cold wind-induced convulsion, and other diseases, which has been used for more than 2 000 years. According to modern research, polyphyllin Ⅱ, one of the main active components of Paridis Rhizoma, belongs to diosgenin in structure. It has the anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, immune-regulating, antioxidant, and multidrug resistance-reversing activities, showing good application prospect. Especially, the anti-tumor effect of polyphyllin Ⅱ has attracted wide attention, and the mechanism is inhibiting proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells, inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy, suppressing angiogenesis, and modulating tumor microenvironment. However, the pharmacokinetic results show that polyphyllin Ⅱ has low bioavailability in vivo due to the low solubility, poor absorption, unsatisfactory distribution, and slow metabolism, which limit the clinical application. In recent years, there has been an explosion of research on the adverse reactions of polyphyllin Ⅱ, such as the strong hemolytic activity and obvious cytotoxicity to liver, kidney, myocardium and cardiovascular cells. Thus, papers were retrieved from "CNKI", "VIP", "Wanfang Data", "PubMed", "Web of Science", and "Elsevier SD" with "Paris saponin Ⅱ", "Polyphyllin Ⅱ" as the main keywords, and the pharmacological activities and mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, and adverse reactions were summarized. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for the in-depth research, development, and utilization of polyphyllin Ⅱ.
