Objective To investigate the effects of Yangxueqingnao Granule on the proliferation and differentiation of endogenous neural stem cells and their neuroprotective mechanism after brain ischemia. Methods Cerebral ischemia was induced in rats by temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion. Ischemic animals received Yangxue Qingnao Granule at high and low doses at days 3,7, 14,and 21 after MCAO. Neurological score and TTC staining were used to assess the neurological deficits and the volume of cerebral infarction, respectively. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect Brdu and Nestin expression in the subventricular zone(SVZ)and hippocampal dentate gyrus subgranular zone(SGZ)region. Results The rats in MCAO control group, low dose group and high dose group showed varying degrees of neurological def-icits and the volume of cerebral infarctions. The neurological defect scores and volume of cerebral infarction were signifi-cantly different at different time points in each group ( P<0.01). 2. The mean fluorescence intensity values of Brdu posi-tive cells or the Nestin positive cells in SVZ and SGZ regions were significantly different ( P< 0.01) at different time points after treatment for 3,7,14 or 21 days. The mean fluorescence intensity values of Brdu positive cells or the Nestin positive cells in SVZ and SGZ regions were significant different among low dose group, high dose group and MCAO con-trol group. The mean fluorescence intensity values of Brdu positive cells or the Nestin positive cells in SVZ and SGZ re-gions were significantly different among low dose group, High dose group and control group. High dose group significantly increased the mean fluorescence intensity values of Brdu positive cells or the Nestin positive cells in SVZ and SGZ re-gions. Conculsions Yangxue Qingnao Granule is able to promote the functional recovery and reduce the volume of cere-bral infarction in ischemic rats. Yangxue Qingnao Granule can enhance the proliferation and differentiation of endoge-nous neural stem cells in ischemic rats.

Objective To study the feasibility of using heat and moisture exchangers (HME)as an alternative to heated humidifiers (HH) in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation. Methods 266 pa-tients with mechanical ventilation admitted to our ICU over the recent 3 years were allocated to the experi-mental group (humidification with a heat and moisture exchanger) and the control group (with heated hu-midifier), and the effect of humidification, the reserved time of artificial airway, the time on mechanical yen-tilation, the time of stay in ICU, the ineidenee of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and the mor-tality rate were comparatively studied and analyzed. Results Significant differences were found between the experimental and the control group in effect of humidification, insufficiency of humidification or excessive hu-midification, airway spasm and time on mechanical ventilation and time of stay in ICU. The incidence of VAP in the control group was significantly higher than that in the experimental group. There were no significant dif-ference between the two groups in the reserved time of artificial airway and the mortality rate. There were no accident of humidification occurred in the experimental group while there were one case complicated with air-way burn and 11 eases complicated with choking with water in the control group. Conclusions We conclude that HH can be replaced by HME on mechanical ventilation while disease evolution and effect of humidification should be monitored closely and keep HME unobstructed.

Objective To investigate the effect of rhynchophylline on mRNA expression of excitatory amino acid transporter 2 (EAAT2 ) and N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor 2B (NR2B) after astrocyte oxygen-glucose deprivation. Methods The subcultured third generation astrocytes from the hippocampus were inoculated into 6-well plates, and they were divided into blank control group, hypoxia-ischemia group,low-dose rhynchophylline group (0. 02 mg/ml) and high-dose rhynchophylline group (0. 2 mg/ml) after the cells were attached to the wall and grew out protrusion. The total RNAs in each group were extracted.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression levels of EAAT2 and NR2B mRNA in astrocytes of each group. Results Compared with the blank control group, the expression levels of NR2B and EAAT2 mRNA in astrocytes of the ischemia-hypoxia group were significantly higher (all P < 0. 05 ). The expression levels of NR2B and EAAT2 mRNA in the low-dose rhynchophylline group were lower than those in ischemia-hypoxia group, but there was no significant difference. The expression levels of NR2B and EAAT2 mRNA in the high-dose rhynchophylline group were significantly lower than the ischemia-hypoxia group and the low-dose rhynchophylline group (all P < 0. 05).Conclusion The expression of EAAT2 and NR2B mRNA in astrocytes of hippocampus cultured in vitro was significantly increased after ischemia and hypoxia, and rhynchophylline intervention could significantly reduce its expression in a concentration dependent manner.

[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the expression of galectin-3 in bladder cancer tissues and its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics of bladder cancer patients, as well as to explore its effect on the proliferation, invasion and apoptosis of bladder cancer T24 cells. Methods:Atotal of 104 cases of pathologically confirmed bladder cancer tissues and the corresponding adjacent tissues were collected from the patients treated at the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from May 2014 to June 2016. Immunohistochemistry staining was used to determine the galectin-3 protein expression in both cancer and adjacent tissues, and the correlations between galectin-3 expression and clinical pathological features were analyzed. siRNA-Gal3 and siRNA-Control were transfected into T24 cell, respectively. The expression of galectin-3 protein was detected by Western blotting, the proliferation of cells was detected by MTT assay; the invasion of cells was detected by Transwell assay; and the cell apoptosis was determined by Flow cytometry. Results: The positive rate of galectin-3 in bladder cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues (73.1% vs 9.6%, P<0.05). The expression of galectin-3 in bladder cancer was correlated with histological grade, depth of invasion, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage (all P <0.05), but not with sex and age (P>0.05). The expression of galectin-3 was down-regulated significantly by siRNAGal3 (P<0.05). After interference with galectin-3, the proliferation and invasion of T24 cells was significantly decreased (all P<0.05) but the apoptosis was significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusion: Galectin-3 is over-expressed in bladder cancer and is closely related to the clinicopathological features of bladder cancer patients. Interference of galectin-3 protein expression can inhibit proliferation and invasion and promote cell apoptosis of bladder cancer T24 cells.
