1.Enhancement of NADPH: quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO_1) gene expression and inhibition of cell proliferation induced by ?-tyrosol in human hepatoma SMMC-7721 cells
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 2000;0(08):-
AIM: To investigate whether ?-tyrosol could induce expression of DT-diaphorase (NQO 1) gene and inhibit proliferation of hepatoma cells and their relationship.METHODS: The DT-diaphorase activity, mRNA expression and cell proliferation were examined using direct measurement of DT-diaphorase from cells cultured in microtiter wells, semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) technique and crystal violet assay after treatment of SMMC-7721 cells with ?-tyrosol for 24 h. RESULTS: Treatment of SMMC-7721 cells with ?-tyrosol caused an increase in DT-diaphorase activity and DT-diaphorase mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner. A statistically significant correlation between DT-diaphorase mRNA levels and enzyme activities was evident. In almost the same concentration range of 70 mg/L to 100 mg/L, ?-tyrosol resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation which well inversely correlated with DT-diaphorase activity.CONCLUSION: ?-tyrosol can induce DT-diaphorase activity and enhance expression of its gene, which may contribute to antiproliferation of hepatoma cells caused by the same chemical.
2.Clinical Thoughts on Yin-wei Theory
Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2015;(9):662-665
Objective]To explore the relationship between Yin-wei theory and clinical practice ,and to discuss how to apply Yin-wei theory to solve practical problems in clinical situation.[Methods]We start from the Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM) classics Nei Jing(the Canon of Internal Medicine) and Nan Jing(Canon On Eighty-One Difficult Issues),combined with Zhang Zhongjing’s application of Guizhi decoction in his book“Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases”to explore the cause and effect of Yin-wei theory and to comprehensively analyze its underlying thought .[Results]We found that Guizhi decoction in the“Treatise on Febrile Diseases”was not only applied in the chapter Taiyang disease,but also involved in other four chapters of Shaoyin disease and the chapter of cholera disease.In“Synopsis of Golden Chamber”,Guizhi decoction was used to treat vomitus gravidarum and affection by cold after delivery,while in Zhongjing’s practice,Guizhi decoction derived formula was widely used in the treatment of consumptive internal injuries miscellaneous disease,indicating that many internal injuries miscellaneous diseases were closely related to external infection .Tonic medicines were rarely seen alone in classical consumptive disease treatment.[Conclusion]Practice has proven that deep learning and understanding of Yin-wei theory has great guiding significance for us to put knowledge in TCM classic theories into clinical practice .Yin-wei theory opens an important window to learn“Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases”and trains clinical thinking,which is worth further discussion.

Objective:To describe the clinical features and immunological of Uygur systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) subjects.Methods:Atotal of 484 adult patients (≥18 years) followed in the People's Hospital of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were included into this study including 211 Uygur patients with SLE and 273 Han patients with SLE.Results:① Of the 211 Uygur SLE patients, 195 (92.4%) were female and 16(7.6%) were male (female:male=12.2∶1), the mean age at SLE onset was 15-64(35±12) years, mean disease duration was 0.1-228(21±35) months.② Of the 211 Uygur SLE patients, the most prevalent clinical presentationswere renal involvement 56.4%(119/211), hematological 56.4%(119/211), rash 50.2% (106/211), arthralgia/arthritis 49.8%(105/211), weakness 47.9%(101/211). The significant difference observed between the Uygur and Han SLE patients was Raynaud phenomenon( χ2=6.066, P=0.014) .③ The positive rates of antinuclear antibodies were 94.8%(200/211), 54.5%(115/211) for anti-dsDNA antibodies, 47.9% (101/211) for anti-SSA antibodies, 35.1%(74/211) for anti-U 1-RNP antibodies, and 28.4%(60/211) for anti-AHA antibodies. The positivity of anti-AHA antibodies ( χ2=4.952, P=0.026) was higher in Uygur SLE patients than thatin Han SLE patients. More Uygur SLE patients were anemic ( χ2=6.904, P=0.009), with decrease of complement ( χ2=6.330, P=0.012). Conclusion:This study can not find any significant differences between the Uygur SLE patients and Han SLE patients in common clinical manifestations in Xinjiang. The Uygur SLE patients are more likely to have anemia and decrease of complement, which may be related to race and diet habits.

Objective To investigate the value of predicting testicular viability following unilateral testicular torsion by color-Doppler ultrasound (CDU). Methods The clinical manifestations, intraoperative findings and scrotol CDU appearances before and after operation of 42 cases with testicular torsion were compared. According to a bleeding test intraoperatively, testicular viability was divided into A-D level. Testis of level A-C would be saved .while the level D removed. Testicular viability assessed by follow-up CDU was then classed into Ⅰ-Ⅲ level. In Ⅰ-Ⅱ level, the salvaged testis were recovery ultimatelybut atrophy in level Ⅲ. Results Seventeen cases of the 42 underwent orchidopexy and the remaining 25 cases underwent orchidectomy. As followed up, however, testis in only 7 cases were recovered, including 2 cases in level A,3 cases in level B and 2 cases in level C. respectively. The preoperative scrotal CDU appearances of the recovered testis were mainly as follows: ① Homogeneous parenchyma with decreased or disappeared blood perfusion. ②Sheet or radial hypoechoic in the local testis but with preserved blood perfusion in most area else. Testis in the remaining 10 patients, including 8 cases in level C and 2 cases in level D, respectively, were atrophy finally. And large radial hypoechoic or diffuse inhomogeneous echo with none or a small amount of blood supply on the edge parenchyma were found during their preoperative CDU (similar CDU performance was present in the orchidectomy group. The CDU appearances of contralateral testes both in orchidopexy and orchidectomy group were not obviously abnormal during follow-up. Conclusions The scrotal CDU examination is competent to predict testicular viability after detorsion. In addition, timely operation would be a key to CDU evaluation.
