Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2014;49(1):131-5
To investigate the cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis induced by berberine a-hydroxy f-decanoylethyl sulfonate (HB) on MDA-MB-231 cells in vitro, and the inhibitory effect of HB on the expression of poly adenosine diphosphate RNA polymerase (PARP), MTT assay was used to detect the viability of MDA-MB-231 cells and cell cycle was examined by flow cytometry. The results showed that HB could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MDA-MB-231 cells, and mildly arrested cell cycle progression at S phase. The IC50S for 24, 48 and 72 h treatment were 4.65, 1.46 and 0.75 mg.L-1 (7.55, 2.37 and 1.22 micromol.L-1), respectively. Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining assay showed that HB increased apoptotic ratio of MDA-MB-231 cells. Western blotting analysis showed the expressions of procaspase-3, procaspase-9 and PARP were decreased after HB treatment, while their fragment increased. The results suggest that HB can inhibit the growth and induce apoptosis of MDA-MB-231 cells, which may be associated with inhibition of the expression of procaspase-3, procaspase-9 and PARP.

Objective:To discuss the influence and curative effect of intensive lipid-lowering with atorvastatin on blood fat and ser-um inflammatory factors levels in the patients with acute cerebral infarction. Methods:Totally 94 cases of patients with acute cerebral infarction were divided into the intensive group(n=47) and the ordinary group (n=47). The patients in the two groups were given the basic medical treatment, such as reducing intracranial pressure and dehydration, controlling blood pressure and blood sugar, anti-platelet aggregation, neural protection and etc. The patients in the ordinary group were orally given 20mg atorvastatin calcium tablets, once a day, while the patients in the intensive group were additionally given 40mg atorvastatin calcium tablets, once a day, and the treatment course was 8 weeks. The changes of blood fat index and serum inflammatory factors of hs-CRP, TNF-αand IL-10 in the two groups before and after the medical treatment were detected, and the clinical curative effect was compared as well. Results:After the 8-week medical treatment, TC, TG and LDL-C levels in the two groups were declined at different degree, while HDL-C levels were in-creased at different degree (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), and the changes in the intensive group was more notable than those in the ordinary group (P<0. 05). After the treatment, the serum hs-CRP and TNF-αlevels in the two groups were declined at different degree, while serum IL-10 levels were increased at different degree (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), and the changes in the intensive group was more signifi-cant than those in the ordinary group (P<0. 05). Meanwhile, the total clinical efficiency in the intensive group (95. 74%) was much higher than that in the ordinary group (80. 85%, P<0. 05). Respectively 2 and 4 cases of untoward effect were appeared in the ordi-nary group and the intensive group without statistical difference between the two groups(P>0. 05). Conclusion:Intensive lipid-lower-ing with atorvastatin has significant curative effect with favorable security on acute cerebral infarction, which can obviously improve the degree of neural function defect, and the mechanism may related with reducing blood fat, serum hs-CRP and TNF-αlevels, increasing serum IL-10 levels and inhibiting topical inflammatory reactions.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation with acupuncture for moderate-to-severe perennial allergic rhinitis.MethodsA total of 50 patients were recruited into a sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation group and a routine acupuncture group according to order of presentation, with 25 in each group. The sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation group received sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation with filiform needle, 1-2 sessions/week for 4 weeks. The routine acupuncture group received traditional acupuncture, withyingxiang(LI 20),yintang(GV29),fengchi(GB20),fengfu(GB16),zusanli(ST36) as the maln points, andyingxiang(LI 20),yintang(GV29),fengchi(GB20),fengfu(GB16),zusanli(ST36) as the adjunct points, 1-2 points from both the maln and adjunct points in each session, 2 sessions/week for 4 weeks. The nasal symptom score (2004 version), the total nasal symptom score (TNSS) and the total non-nasal symptom score (TNNSS) were used to evaluate symptom improvement. The Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnalre (RQLQ) was used to assess the patients’ quality of life. The time to symptom alleviation, duration of symptom alleviation in every session and the recurrence duration during 1 month after the treatment were compared between the two groups.Results After the treatment, the score of the nasal symptom score (99.74 ± 31.89vs.196.83 ± 31.22;t=-4.912,P=0.001), TNSS (33.63 ± 12.37vs.71.82 ± 19.21;t=-3.463,P=0.003), TNNSS (33.63 ± 12.37vs.71.82 ± 19.21,t=-3.463,P=0.003) in the sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation were significant lower than those in the routine acupuncture group. Compared with the routine acupuncture group, the time to symptom alleviation was significant shorter (13.85 ± 4.21 minvs.45.63 ± 7.87 min;t=-1.763,P=0.008), while the duration of symptom alleviation was significant longer (37.92 ± 9.94 hvs.3.35 ± 1.23 h;t=7.637,P<0.01) after each session in the sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation group. Four weeks after the treatment, RQLQ score in the sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation group was significant lower than that in the routine acupuncture group (8.48 ± 3.71vs.37.68 ± 12.46;F=-7.312,P<0.01). The recurrence duration during 1 month after the treatment in the sphenopalatine ganglion stimulation group was significant longer than that in the routine acupuncture group (4.12 ± 2.15 dvs.23.53 ± 4.63 d;t=-8.879,P=0.003).ConclusionSphenopalatine Ganglion stimulation is superior to routine acupuncture in treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe perennial allergic rhinitis.
