Objective To explore the protective effcets of Schisandra chinensis extract (SCE) in paraquat (PQ)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice ,and its intrinsic molecular mechanisms thereof. Methods A total of 108 mice were randomly allocated into six groups (n=18):control group, model group, low concentration of SCE group (200 mg/kg), medium concentration of SCE group (400 mg/kg), high concentration of SCE group (800 mg/kg) and vitamin C group (100 mg/kg). Except control group, mice were given by intragastric administration with PQ (100 mg/kg) and administered with SCE and Vitamin C once per 24 h after PQ modeling. Mice were sacrificed at 7, 14 and 21 d after modeling. Six mice were executed at different time points. The degree of lung tissue inflammation and fibrosis were observed by HE staining and Masson staining. The mRNA and protein expression levels of transforming growth (TGF)-β1, interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-17 in lung tissue were determined by RT-PCR and ELISA respectively. Results (1) Compared with control group, the lung tissue of model group showed a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration, space congestion, and its inflammation scores increased at 7 and 14 days after modeling (P<0.05). At the same time, compared with model group and vitamin C group, inflammation scores were significantly decreased in medium concentration of SCE group and high concentration of SCE group (P<0.05). (2) Compared with control group, collagen fibers and the degree of fibrosis were significantly increased in model group ,while pulmonary fibrosis were decreased in medium concentration of SCE group and high concentration of SCE group at 14 and 21 days after modeling (P<0.05). (3) With the extension of modeling time, both mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β1 were obviously elevated, IL-6 decreased and IL-17 reduced after the first increase in PQ group. Compared with PQ group, levels of three cytokines mRNA and protein expression in medium concentration of SCE group and high concentration of SCE group changed as follows:IL-6 level was markedly decreased at 7 and 14 days after modeling;TGF-β1 level was markedly increased at 14 and 21 days after modeling. However, IL-17 level was markedly decrease at three time points(P<0.05). Conclusion SCE can relieve PQ-induced lung inflammation and fibrosis by suppressing TGF-β1, IL-6, and IL-17 expressions.

Objective To investigate the effect of different time intervention of Zhu Lian acupuncture exciting method on nerve cell apoptosis and tissue expressions of PI3K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase), AKt (serine/threonine kinase) and Caspase-3 (cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3) proteins in young rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.Methods Fifty 7-day-old rats were randomized into groups A (acupuncture exciting methodⅠ), B (acupuncture exciting methodⅡ), C (model), D (sham operation) and E (normal control), 10 rats each. Groups A and E began to receive acupuncture in 24 hours after model making and group B, at 8 days after model making. Groups C and D were not given acupuncture. Every group of animals was sacrificed at 21 days after model making. Nerve cell apoptosis was examined using In situ end labeling (TUNEL) technique. Cerebral expressions of PI3K, AKt and Caspase-3 proteins were determined by immunohistochemical method.Results The number of apoptotic cells was significantly smaller in groups A and B than in group C (P<0.01,P<0.05) and decreased significantly in group A compared with group B (P<0.05). The expressions of PI3K and AKt proteins increased significantly and the expression of Caspase-3 protein decreased significantly in groups A and B compared with group C; there were statistically significant differences (P<0.01,P<0.05). PI3K expression increased significantly and Caspase-3 protein expression decreased significantly in group A compared with group B (P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusions Zhu Lian acupuncture exciting method can inhibit nerve cell apoptosis, stimulate the expression of PI3K/AKt signaling pathway, increase PI3K and AKt activities and reduce the expression of Caspase-3 protein in young rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage. Early intervention of Zhu Lian acupuncture exciting method is of important significance in producing a protective effect on brain nerves in young rats with hypoxic-ischemic brain damage.

Objective: To observe the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effect of mandelic acid. Methods: Fifty Kunming mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:the blank control group (0. 1 ml/10 g), mandelic acid high (300 mg·kg-1), medium (200 mg ·kg-1 ) and low (140 mg·kg-1 ) dose groups, and the positive control ( aspirin) group, ig, qd. The analgesic effect of mandelic acid was observed by writhing test and hot plate method in mice. The ear swelling model caused by dimethyl benzene in mice was a-dopted to observe the analgesic effect. Results:Mandelic acid in each dose group could make the number of writhing in mice signifi-cantly reduced and pain threshold extended, and when compared with the blank control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 01). The writhing times of mice mandelic acid high dose group was fewer than that of the positive control group, and there was no statistically significant between the groups (P>0. 05). In low and medium dose group, the writhing times of mice were more than those of the positive control group, and there was a significant difference between the low dose group and the positive control group( P<0. 05). The pain threshold of the mice in each mandelic acid dose group was higher than that of the positive control group, the pain threshold increased significantly in the high dose group before and after the administration, and the difference was statistically signifi-cant when compared with the positive control group (P<0. 05). The effect of mandelic acid on the ear swelling of mice was not signifi-cant, and when compared with the blank control group, the difference was not significant (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Mandelic acid has significant analgesic effect, while anti-inflammatory effect is not obvious.
