China Pharmacy 2005;0(15):-
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the growth inhibition and apoptosis of BGC-823 gastric cancer cells induced by Oridonin and its mechanism. METHODS: The Oridonin-treated BGC-823 cells were detected using MTT, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), TUNEL and flow cytometry (FCM) etc. RESULTS: Oridonin(16, 32, and 64 ?g?mL-1) significantly inhibited the proliferation of BGC-823 cells in dose and time dependent manner, with the inhibition rates at 68.5%, 90.8%, and 94.7%, respectively within 24, 48, and 72 h after treatment with 64 ?g?mL-1 Oridnin. When treated with 32 ?g?mL-1 Oridonin for 2 h,mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were proliferated and swelled under TEM; At 8 h,vacuolization of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were noted, the internal structure disappeared, and the nuclear chromatin margination vacuolization were in typical apoptosis change; At 24 h, BGC-823 cells were arrested at G2/M phase, and the apoptosis rate was 37.8% under FCM. CONCLUSION: Oridonin inhibiting proliferation and apoptosis of BGC-823 cells maybe related to G2/M phase arresting, and Oridonin induce apoptosis of BGC-823 cells may through mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum apoptosis pathway.

Chinese Journal of Marine Drugs 2001;0(05):-
Objective To investigate the antioxidant activity of Enteromorpha prolifera by ABTS radical scavenging assay in vitro and provide scientific basis for exploitation of Enteromorpha prolifera.Methods The antioxidant activities of extracts by different solvents from Enteromorpha prolifera and water extracts from different Enteromorpha prolifera samples were investigated by ABTS radical scavenging assay.Moreover,the antioxidant ability of the water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera was evaluated by using caffeic acid and ascorbic acid as positive control standards.Results The water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera provided the highest radical scavenging activity,and the antioxidant capability of 1mL of water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera was equivalent to 1mL of 2.55 10~(-3) mg?mL~(-1) caffeic acid or 1mL of 2.89?10~(-3)mg?mL~(-1) ascorbic acid.However,the extraction methods,dry sample or not and different kinds of Enteromorpha prolifera samples had certain influence on the antioxidant activity of water extract from Enteromorpha prolifera. Conclusion There are abundant antioxidant compounds present in the aqueous extract of Enteromorpha prolifera,and it can be exploited as latent oxidation inhibitor.
5.Neuroprotective effects of statins in subarachnoid hemorrhage
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2015;23(7):554-558
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a common cerebrovascular disease,its disability and mortality rates are higher.It has been confkmed that early brain injury (EBI) and cerebral vasospasm (CVS) are the major pathophysiological mechanisms of causing neurological dysfunction and death after SAH.There are a variety of factors of causing CVS and EBI,including nitric oxide,endothelin,oxyhemoglobin,and proinflarnmatory cytokines.A large number of animal experiments and clinical research have confrmed that statins have neuroprotective effects.This article reviews the neuroprotective effects and its mechanisms of statins in SAH

ObjectiveTo analyze the different effects of spiral progress method and traditional method used in computer teaching in TCM colleges and universities.MethodsStudents were divided into the groups of spiral and traditional. At the end of the course, students would have a course examination.Results Students in spiral group got better scores than students in traditional group (P<0.05).Conclusion Using spiral progress method in computer teaching in TCM colleges and universities can help students develop the right thinking model and scientific learning method. It can also improve students’ ability to use computer knowledge in TCM study and research.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of transcatheter ethanol embolization of bilateral uterine artery as a treatment for fibromyoma. Methods Twenty one women with uterine fibromyoma underwent femoral artery puncture and transcatheter uterine artery embolization. Free flow bilateral artery embolization with ethanol were performed on 16 cases, three women undergoing unilateral embolization, and gelatin sponge were used in 2 cases. Results All cases were observed with a follow up of 3 to 64 months (mean 25 months) after the treatment. Nineteen women infused with ethanol were reported noticeable symptomatic improvement, including fifteen women with complete resolution of symptoms. Two women embolized with sponge exhibited clinical response at 2 and 5 months after the procedure, respectively. The marked diminution of tumor size (40%-90%) was sonographically demonstrated. No severe complications were discovered in all 21 cases. Conclusion Uterine artery embolization represented a promising new method of treating fibroids. It had safe and good clinical results. Further investigation would be required to assess its long term effect.

Objective To study and evaluate the inhibitory role of ?-carboxyglutamic acid(Gla)in the Gla domain of prothrombin in the formation of calcium oxalate crystals. Methods The addition of morpholine and formaldehyde to the solution of prothrombin caused the conversion of 8 Gla to ?-methyleneglutamic acid (8?-MGlu)or 2 Gla to ?-methyleneglutamic acid(2?-MGlu) ,the inhibitory activity of which to calcium oxalate crystallization was detected with seeded crystallization technique. Results The conversion of Gla to ?-MGlu leads to the decreased inhibitory activity of prothrombin to calcium oxalate crystallization,the inhibitory index being decreased from normal 14.2 to 12.8 of 2?-MGlu or 5.0 of 8 ?-MGlu prothrombin respectively. Conclusions Gla in prothrombin may play an important role to inhibit the formation of calcium oxalate calculi.
