Herald of Medicine 2015;(11):1454-1457
Objective To study the hypoglycemic effect and mechanism of n ̄butyl alcohol extraction from Anoectochilus roxburghii. Methods The total of 12 normal rats were used as normal control group, and 48 diabetic model rats were divided into model control group, and high dose, middle dose and low dose treatment groups with 12 rats in each group,three treatment groups received Anoectochilus roxburghii at dose 600,400,200 mg.kg-1 , respectively, normal control group and model control group were administered with equal volume of 0.9% sodium chlorade solution once a day.After 21 days of drug administration, the weights of rats, the levels of blood glucose and insulin were examined. Results Compared with normal control group, the body weight in model control group decreased significantly(P<0.01), while blood glucose significantly increased (P<0.01).Compared with model control group, the body weight in Anoectochilus roxburghii groups exhibited no obvious difference,while blood glucose decreased significantly (P<0.01 or P<0.05).The level of insulin in high dose group increased remarkably (P<0.05). Conclusion The n ̄butyl alcohol extraction from Anoectochilus roxburghii shows markedly hypoglycemic effect,specifically for which at high dose increases the level of insulin significantly,its mechanism may involve with promoting β cells regeneration.

Objective To observe the effect of ulinastatin on the expression of interleukin 15 (IL-15), connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMCs) induced by high glucose. Methods RPMCs were isolated, cultured and passaged by trypsin, then identified. The third generation of cultured RPMCs were used in the experiment. RPMCs were divided into normal control group, high glucose (1.5%, 2.5%, 4.25%) for 6 hours and 12 hours, high glucose (2.5%) for 3, 6, 12, 24 hours or ulinastatin (160, 320, 640U/ml) for 12 hours. IL-15 mRNA was detected by real-time PCR. IL-15 and CTGF protein in supernatants was detected by ELISA. MDA protein was detected by TBAS. Results Compared with the control group, the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA was significantly increased in the groups stimulated by high glucose (P<0.05) in dose- and time-dependent manner. Ulinastatin could significantly decrease the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA induced by high glucose in dosedependent manner both in protein and gene levels (P<0.05). Conclusions High glucose can up-regulate the expression of IL-15, CTGF and MDA in RPMCs. Ulinastatin can reverse these changes.

Objective To observe the effect of 1,25(OH)_2D_3 on expression of vitamin D receptor (VDR), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) in rat peritoneal mesothelial cells (RPMCs) stimulated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS), so as to provide some evidence for clinical use of 1,25 (OH)_2D_3 on peritoneal dialysis-associated peritoneal inflammation. Methods RPMCs were isolated, cultured and passaged by enzymaticdisaggregation, then identified by phase contrast inverted microscope, transmission electron microscope with immunocytochemistry method. RPMCs were incubated with LPS (1,10,100 mg/L) and LPS (10 mg/L) for 2,6,12 hours, or stimulated by 1,25(OH)_2D_3 (10~(-8) mol/L, 10~(-7) mol/L, 10~(-6) mol/L) after incubated with LPS (10 mg/L) for 2 hours. RPMCs in the control group were justincubated with medium. Expression of VDR mRNA and protein was detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. In addition, ELISA was performed to investigate the changes of TNF-α and TGF-β1 in culture medium. Results Compared with control group, the expression of VDR mRNA and protein was decreased in LPS group (P<0.05). LPS could significantly induce the expression of TNF-a and TGF-β1 in RPMC (P <0.01), which could be partially reversed by different concentrations of 1,25 (OH)_2D_3 (P<0.01). Conclusions 1,25 (OH)_2D_3 can reverse the decrease of VDR mRNA and protein induced by LPS as well as the induction of TNF-a and TGF-β1 up-regulated by LPS in RPMC in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Our research provides experimental evidence of VDR ameliorating peritoneal dialysis-associated peritoneal inflammation and peritoneal fibrosis.

OBJECTIVE:To establish fingerprint of Zhizi jinhua pills(ZZJHW)and analyze the relationship of it with in vitro antioxidant activity,in order to provide the basis for the quality control of them. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The sep-aration was performed on a Sinochrom ODS-BP C18(200 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm)column with mobile phase consisted of 0.2% acetic acid(containing 3 mmol/L sodium heptanesulfonate solution)-acetonitrile(gradient elution)at the detection wavelength of 254 nm and flow rate of 0.8 ml/min. The column temperature was controlled at 38 ℃,and injection volume was 10 μl. The“Chromato-graphic Fingerprint Similarity Evaluation System for TCM”(2012.130723 edition) issued by Chinese Pharmacopoeia Commission was used to evaluate the similarity of the 12 batches of ZZJHW using baicalin as reference peak so as to attribute the common peak of fingerprint. DPPH free radical scavenging assay was used to investigate the in vitro antioxidant activity of 12 batches of ZZJHW,and the relationship between its fingerprint and antioxidant activity was studied. RESULTS:The fingerprint of 12 batches of ZZJHW was established and the similarity between the fingerprint of ZZJHW with their reference fingerprint were all above 0.9 (except S1,S2,S3,S12). 30 common peaks were marked,all of which were assigned to the herbs. Antioxidant experiment result showed the differences in the antioxidant capacity among different batches of ZZJHW;spectrum effect relationship showed that 13 common peaks were positively related with oxidation activity and 17 common peaks negatively related with it;among known com-ponents,oxidation activity components were mainly from Lonicera japonica,Scutellaria baicalensis and Rheum palmatum. CON-CLUSIONS:The spectrum effect relationship of established fingerprint with its antioxidant activity can provide reference for the quality control of ZZJHW.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the commonly encountered pathogens and drng resistance of bacteria causing secondary infection in patients with malignant tumors and provide reference for clinical antimicrobial usage.METHODS Statistical analysis was made retrospectively in the classification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing in 1 204 strains of pathogens isolated from clinical samples of hospitalized patients with malignant tumors from Jan 2003 to Oct 2005.RESULTS Among 1 204 strains,Gram-positive strains accounted for 31.1%;Gram-negative ones accounted for 52.8%;and fungi accounted for 16.1%.The principal strains were Candida albicans,Escherichia coli,Staphylococcus aureus,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.The most frequent infection sites were in respiratory tract,urinary tract and skin-soft tissue.Multiple drug resistant rate of Gram-positive and Gram-negative strains had a tendency of elevation.CONCLUSIONS To reduce the coming of drug resistant strains,etiologic examination should be done in treatment of infectious diseases and antimicrobial therapy should be decided according to the results of susceptibility.
