With development of bio-technique, more and more proteins were applied as clinical approaches. However, the protein homogeneity, especially the N-glycosylation limited the further research and application of these protein drugs. The analysis method for N-glycans is believed to be critical in protein drugs development. To enhance the N-glycans isolation efficiency and accelerate the pretreatment, a new strategy was built on ultrafiltration-devices. New methods increased the isolation efficiency of N-glycans containing N-acetylglucosa mine with 10%-20%. The degrading of N-glycans containing sialic acids was also minimized with this method. 20%-100% more N-glycans with sialic acids were isolated. The pretreatment was finished within 30 min. Coupled with HPLC-HRMS, an effective and reliable strategy designed for protein drugs N-glycans analysis were developed.

Objective:To elucidate the clinical effect of xingxiong sodium chloride injection on vertebralbasilar insufficiency.Method:98 patients with vertebralbasilar nsufficiency were randomly divided into two groups,(therapy group with 50 cases treated with xingxiong sodium chloride injection and the controlled group with 48 treated with danshen injec- tion.After 14 days,their clinical symptom change and haemodynamics parameters change were evaluated and detected by transcranial Doppler (TCD).Result:In the therapy group,45 cases (90%) were cured and in the controlled,30 cases (62.5%) were cured.The two groups presented a statistical significance (P

Objective:To explore the risk factors and the treatment outcomes of rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) in Guizhou Province.Methods:The clinical data of 16 548 pulmonary tuberculosis patients with drug sensitivity test results registered in the Tuberculosis Information Management System in China from designated tuberculosis hospitals of 88 counties (cities, districts) in Guizhou Province from January 2014 to December 2018 were collected. The gender, age, occupation, ethnicity, patient registration classification, molecular biology or Lowenstein-Jenden (L-J) solid culture results of positive sputum culture patients, and treatment outcomes were retrospectively analyzed. Cohen′s kappa coefficient was used to analyze the consistency between molecular biology and L-J solid culture in detecting rifampin resistance. Chi-square test and non-conditional logistic regression model were used to analyze the risk factors of mono-rifampicin resistance tuberculosis and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) and the factors affecting treatment outcomes.The measurement data were compared by chi-square test or Fisher exact test. Results:The detection rate of RR-TB in the newly diagnosed cases was 6.79%(807/11 883), and that in the retreated cases was 30.01%(1 400/4 665). The drug sensitivity tests of 184 sputum culture positive RR-TB samples were performed by both L-J solid culture and molecular biology, and the rifampicin resistance detection rates were 20.65%(38/184) and 16.85%(31/184), respectively. The consistency between two methods was good ( kappa=0.697, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.564-0.830, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that patients aged 20 to 39 years old (odds ratio ( OR)=1.679, 95% CI 1.134-2.487) and aged 40 to 60 years old ( OR=1.526, 95% CI 1.019-2.283) were the high risk groups for MDR-TB. Treatment failure ( OR=27.753, 95% CI 22.455-34.300; OR=2.982, 95% CI 1.544-5.760, respectively), relapse and return ( OR=5.381, 95% CI 4.563-6.346; OR=3.897, 95% CI 2.901-5.234, respectively) were both high risk factors for MDR-TB and mono-rifampicin resistance tuberculosis. The treatment rate of RR-TB patients was 39.96% (396/991) from 2014 to 2016. Among 396 treatment cases, 138(34.85%) were cured and 16(4.04%) died. The patients aged>60 years old had lower cure rate (12.68%(9/71) vs 39.69%(129/325)) and higher death rate (11.27%(8/71) vs 2.46%(8/325)) than those aged ≤60 years. The differences were both statistically significant ( χ2=18.732, P<0.01; Fisher′s exact test, P=0.003). Conclusions:The RR-TB patients in Guizhou Province are mainly re-treated. Young and middle-age (20-60 years old) and treatment history are risk factors for RR-TB. The patients over 60 years old have a low cure rate and a high mortality rate. It is suggested to strengthen the screening, treatment and management of RR-TB to reduce the spread of tuberculosis.

Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of extracts from Garden Balsam seeds in order to provide theoretical basis for rational clinical application. Methods The mouse ear swelling induced by xylene, the body torsion induced by acetic acid or hot plate method, the rat foot swelling induced by egg white and granuloma model were set up to study anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of extracts from Garden Balsam seeds. Results The water extracts at the middle and high doses reduced the body torsion counts of mice (P<0. 05), alleviated the rat toe swelling, but did not affect mice ear swelling. The extracts at the high dose prolonged pain threshold at 60 min (P<0. 01) and 90 min (P<0. 05); the alcohol ex-tracts at the middle and high doses significantly lowered body twisting counts (P<0. 01), attenuated the ear swelling of mice (P<0. 05), remarkably prolonged the pain threshold (P<0. 01)at 30 min, weakened the rat foot swelling, and elevated 60 min pain threshold at the high doses (P<0. 01), but the extracts exerted no effects on the rats granuloma. Conclusion The extracts from Garden Balsam seeds have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Objective :To study a simplified method of isolation of rat hepatocytes and to observe the pro-cess of cell morphology in long-term culture. Methods :Rat hepatocytes were isolated by a single two-stepperfusion method. The yield and viability were assessed by trypan blue exclusion. [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide] (MTT) was used to test the effect of serum concentration of newborn calf serum on the proliferation of hepatocytes. Hepatocytes were inoculated in the culture mediumconsisted of Williams' E supplemented with insulin,dexamethasone and 10％ new born calf serum. Themorphologic change of cultured hepatocytes was observed. Results:The average yield of hepatocytes was 2.26× 108 cells per rat, with an average viability of 95.6％. New born calf serum had strong biological activi-ty to stimulate the proliferation of hepatocytes and there was close-effect relationship followed by the in-crease of new born calf serum concentration. The rat hepatocytes can be cultured for 5～ 6 weeks withpreservation of normal morphologic appearance. Conclusion:The rat hepatocytes isolated by the abovemethod have high yields and viability and can be long-term cultured in vitro.

AIM To investigate the effects of several 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) subtype receptor antagonists on late slow excitatory postsynaptic potential(LS-EPSP) of the neurons of guinea pig inferior mesenteric ganglion(IMG). METHODS Intracellular recordings were made from neurons of the isolated guinea pig IMG. RESULTS Cyproheptadine and BRL 24924 suppressed LS-EPSP of 5-HT sensitive neurons reversibly, while mianserin, MDL 72222 and spiperone showed no significant effect. Continuous superfusion of IMG with MCPP suppressed LS-EPSP of 5-HT sensitive neurons by 5-HT 1P receptor desensitizated. CONCLUSION LS-EPSP of 5-HT sensitive neuron is mediated by 5-HT 1P subtype receptor.

Objective To investigate the effects of Shanzha Xiaozhi capsule on body weight, metabolic index, percentage and distribution of body fat in obese patients with dampness-heat constitution. Methods A total of 60 obesity patients with dampness-heat constitution were enrolled in this study and randomly categorized into the control group ( n=30) and treatment group (n=30). Control group was given the diet and exercise regime, and treatment group was given Shanzha Xiaozhi capsule based on the same diet and exercise regime for 12 weeks. Scores of dampness-heat, body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, blood pressure, blood glucose, serum lipid profile, urine acid (UA), fasting plasma insulin, serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6, adiponectin, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), percentage and distribution of body fat were measured before and after treatment. Results (1) Data of scores of dampness-heat and diastolic blood pressure were significantly decreased after treatment in drug group. The above indexes and hip circumference were significantly decreased after the treatment in treatment group compared with those of control group ( P<0.05). (2) The triglyceride (TG), UA, insulin, HOMA-IR, LPS and IL-1βwere significantly decreased after the treatment in treatment group than those of control group, while there were no significant differences in fast blood glucose (FBG), 2 h postprandial plasma glucose (2 hPG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), TNF-α, IL-6 and adiponectin between two groups. (3) The percentage of visceral fat was significantly decreased in treatment group than that of control group. There were no significant differences in fat changes of limbs and buttocks between two groups. Conclusion Shanzha Xiaozhi capsule can decrease body weight and visceral fat content, reduce insulin resistance, and improve chronic inflammation state in obese patients with dampness- heat constitution.

Objective To investigate the effect of Shanzha Xiaozhi Capsules (SXC) on body weight, metabolic indexes, body fat accumulation and distribution of obesity patients with phlegm-dampness constitution. Methods Fifty obesity patients with phlegm-dampness constitution were randomized into control group and medicine group, 25 cases in each group. The control group was given lifestyle instructions for diet and exercises, and the medicine group was treated with SXC orally besides the instructions for lifestyle. The treatment for both groups covered 12 weeks. Before and after treatment, we observed the outcomes including scores of phlegm-dampness, body weight, waist circumference, hip circumference, blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, serum lipid profile, urine acid, body fat accumulation and distribution, and visceral fat accumulation. Results(1) The scores of phlegm-dampness were decreased significantly in both groups after treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the decrease was obvious in the medicine group(P<0.01).(2) Body weight and BMI were decreased significantly in both groups after treatment(P<0.01), and the decrease was obvious in the medicine group(P<0.05). Waist circumference was decreased significantly in the medicine group(P <0.05) but stayed unchanged in the control group(P>0.05). Hip circumference was decreased significantly in both groups(P <0.05 or P<0.01) , but the difference between the two groups was insignificant(P>0.05).(3) Systolic pressure and diastolic pressure were decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.01). But the difference of blood pressure decrease between the two groups was insignificant(P > 0.05).(4) Fasting blood glucose, 2-hour blood glucose after oral glucose tolerance test, serum lipid profile and urine acid remained unchanged in both groups after treatment (P>0.05). (5) The general body fat accumulation of both groups was decreased significantly after treatment (P <0.05 or P<0.01), and the decrease was obvious in the medicine group(P<0.01). Body fat accumulation in legs, trunk and gynoid region were decreased significantly in both groups after treatment(P<0.05 or P<0.01), but the difference of fat accumulation decrease between the two groups was insignificant(P>0.05). Waist fat accumulation had no significant decrease in the control group (P > 0 . 05), but was decreased in the medicine group (P<0.01). Visceral fat accumulation was decreased significantly in both groups after treatment(P<0.01), and the decrease was obvious in the medicine group (P<0.01). Conclusion In addition to its contribution to body weight loss, SXC also contribute to the reduction of visceral fat accumulation in obesity patients with phlegm-dampness constitution .
