TCM medical service trade is an important component of TCM service trade. Developing TCM medical service trade has wide market and strategic importance. Development of TCM medical service trade in China is still in the initial exploring stage with small scale and dominated by the government. Recently, foreign patients prefer TCM medical serve. TCM medical service trade in abroad shows the partial and small scaled characteristics. The number of joint venture TCM treatment centers is small, and movement of personnel is rare. In order to promote the development of TCM service trade, this article proposed the following four suggestions: conducting TCM international tele-medicine service trade, developing TCM medical travel, investing more in the development of foreign TCM medical centers, expanding the scale of exporting TCM medical talents.

Oxymatrine is an alkaloid from Traditional Chinese Medicine, Sophora flavescens Ait. which has many pharmacological effects. We studied the effects of oxymatrine on the proliferation of human tonsillar cells and mouse splenocytes with or without mitogens. The results show that oxymatrine can augment the proliferation of the human tonsillar cells which show low PHA & tSAC response capacity. On the other hand, oxymatrine can inhibit the proliferation of the human tonsillar cells which show high PHA & SAC responses capacity. The effects of oxymarine on mouse splenocytes are the same with the latter.

To investigate association between prognosis of patients of peritoneal dialysis with their initial high peritoneal solute transport and complications. Two hundred and two patients with end-stage renal disease who began peritoneal dialysis during September 1,2006 to September 1, 2008 at Peking University Third Hospital, Beijing were recruited in the study. They were undergone peritoneal equilibration test within six weeks after initiating peritoneal dialysis, and their types of peritoneal solute transport, complications,nutrition status and outcomes were all recorded until August 31,2010. Their survival rate was estimated by Kaplan-Meier method. Compare to those with other types of solute transport, patients with high peritoneal solute transport showed higher proportion of complications ( P < 0. 05 ) during dialysis, but less ultrafiltration function ( P < 0. 05 ), worse nutrition status ( P < 0. 05 ) and lower cumulative survival rate ( P < 0. 01 ).Among patients with high peritoneal solute transport, cumulative survival rate in those with complication was lower than those without it ( P = 0. 031 ). Prognosis of patients with high peritoneal solute transport possibly varies with their complications in dialysis.

Objective To investigate the effect of necrostatin-1 (Nec-1) on the expression of liver monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in septic rats and its mechanism. Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, and Nec-1 group by randomized digital number method, with 16 rats in each group. The model of sepsis was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Rats in sham group received anesthesia, and flipping the cecum followed by closure of the abdomen without ligation of the cecum. Rats in Nec-1 group were given 1 mg/kg Nec-1 [25 mg Nec-1 solution dissolved in 2.5 mL of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)] through caudal vein 30 minutes before operation, while the rats in model group were given 0.1 mL/kg of DMSO only. Blood from abdominal aorta and liver tissue in each group were collected at 0 hour and 8 hours after operation. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were determined with automatic biochemistry analyzer. The pathological changes in liver were observed under light microscope using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The MCP-1 mRNA expression in the liver was determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results There was no significant differences in the levels of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and expressions of liver MCP-1 mRNA at 0 hour among three groups, and the liver cellular structure was normal. At 8 hours, compared with sham group, the expressions of serum ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA were significantly increased in model group and Nec-1 group [ALT (U/L): 172.35±21.88, 129.67±18.20 vs. 60.04±11.74, AST (U/L): 511.03±34.92, 363.51±25.25 vs. 254.83±31.04, TNF-α(ng/L): 603.96±24.18, 483.87±26.60 vs. 265.74±15.14, IL-6 (ng/L): 975.62±65.37, 712.09±45.47 vs. 310.42±13.88, MCP-1 mRNA (2-ΔΔCt): 7.09±0.18, 5.51±0.45 vs. 0.99±0.06, all P < 0.05]. Levels of the above parameters in Nec-1 group at 8 hours were significantly decreased compared with those of model group (all P < 0.05). Under light microscopy, it was noted that the structure of hepatic lobules was destroyed, with exacerbation of immunocyte infiltration at 8 hours in model group. At 8 hours, it was found that Nec-1 alleviated the pathological damage in Nec-1 group. Conclusion Nec-1 can protect the liver of rats with sepsis, lower the expression of serum TNF-α and serum IL-6 and liver MCP-1 mRNA, and obviously reduce the damage of inflammation.

Objective To study the Effect of acute peripancreatitc fluid collection and pancreatic necrosis to the prognosis of acute pancreatitis.Methods Retrospectively analyzing the prognostic effect of acute peripancreatitc fluid collection and pancreatic necrosis according to the early Computed-Tomograghy of 323 consecutive acute pancreatitis patients from Jan 2003 to Dec 2007,the end points are systemic inflammation response syndrome ( SIRS),pancreatic infection,and mortality.Results Within 5d after onset,97 of 323 cases (30%) presented with SIRS and lasted more than 2d,12 cases (3.7%) occurred pancreatic infection during middle or late phase,14 cases died,the mortality is 4.3%.141 of 323 cases (43.7%) who had acute peripancreatic fluid collection presented with SIRS,acute peripancreatic fluid collection correlated significantly with the occurrence of SIRS,P ＜ 0.05.227 cases (277/323,85.8%) had no pancreatic necrosis,no pancreatic infection occurred,46 cases (46/323,14.2% )had pancreatic necrosis,pancreatic necrosis correlated significantly with pancreatic infection,P ＜ 0.05.Conclusions Acute poripancreafic fluid collection and pancreatic necrosis had different prognostic effect to acute pancreatitis.Acute peripancreatic fluid collection correlated well with the occurrence of SIRS during the early phase;Pancreatic necrosis may be infected during middle or late phase of acute pancreatitis,more extent of pancreatic necrosis,more possible that pancreatic infection will occur.

Objective To explore the influence of EGFR gene interfering on the radiosensitivity of esophageal squamous cells.Methods Three kinds of siRNAs including three random sequences of positive EGFR siRNA (EGFR siRNA1、EGFR siRNA2、EGFR siRNA3),random sequence of negative EGFR siRNA,and blank control were transfected into Eca109 cells by lipofectamine.Cell proliferation was detected by Cell Counting Kit-8 assay.Protein and mRNA expressions of EGFR were detected by Western blot and RT-PCR,respectively.The ability of cell clone formation was used to evaluate the combination effect of X-rays and EGFR siRNA on the radiosensitivity.Results The positive expression rate of the EGFR mRNA in the Eca109 ceils transfected with EGFR siRNA1,EGFR siRNA2,EGFR siRNA3 was 26.74％,9.52％,4.61％,respectively,which was significantly lower than 42.44％ in the control cells transfected with blank siRNA (F =112.11,P ＜ 0.01).Meanwhile,the EGFR protein expression was reduced by 72.84％,53.01％ and 56.21％ after interfering of siRNA1,siRNA2,and siRNA3,respectively.CCK8 assay showed that the proliferation of Eca109 cells was decreased by 28.2％ since the siRNA interference.Moreover,the D0,Dq and SF2 of the combined treatment group were lower than those of irradiation alone group and the sensitization enhancement ratio was 1.50.Conclusions EGFR siRNA can effectively inhibit EGFR gene expression and enhance the radiosensitivity of Eca109 cells.

This study investigated the modulatory effect of synthetic cannabinoids WIN55,212-2 on 5-HT(3) receptor-activated currents (I(5-HT3)) in cultured rat trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons using whole-cell patch clamp technique. The results showed that: (1) The majority of examined neurons (78.70%) were sensitive to 5-HT (3-300 μmol/L). 5-HT induced inward currents in a concentration-dependent manner and the currents were blocked by ICS 205-930 (1 μmol/L), a selective antagonist of the 5-HT(3) receptor; (2) Pre-application of WIN55,212-2 (0.01-1 μmol/L) significantly inhibited I(5-HT3) reversibly in concentration-dependent and voltage-independent manners. The concentration-response curve of 5-HT(3) receptor was shifted downward by WIN55,212-2 without any change of the threshold value. The EC(50) values of two curves were very close (17.5±4.5) μmol/L vs. (15.2±4.5) μmol/L and WIN55,212-2 decreased the maximal amplitude of I(5-HT3) by (48.65±4.15)%; (3) Neither AM281, a selective CB1 receptor antagonist, nor AM630, a selective CB2 receptor antagonist reversed the inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2; (4) When WIN55,212-2 was given from 15 to 120 s before 5-HT application, inhibitory effect was gradually increased and the maximal inhibition took place at 90 s, and the inhibition remained at the same level after 90 s. We are led to concluded that-WIN55,212-2 inhibited I(5-HT3) significantly and neither CB1 receptor antagonist nor CB2 receptor antagonist could reverse the inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2. Moreover, WIN55,212-2 is not an open channel blocker (OCB) of 5-HT(3) receptor. WIN55,212-2 significantly inhibited 5-HT-activated currents in a non-competitive manner. The inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2 is probably new one of peripheral analgesic mechanisms of WIN55,212-2, but the mechanism by which WIN55,212-2 inhibits I(5-HT3) warrants further investigation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of montelukast sodium combined with methylprednisolone in the treatment of pediatric allergic purpura and its effects on inflammatory factors and immune function.Methods:A total of 94 children with allergic purpura who received treatment in Taizhou Women and Children's Hospital and Taizhou Hospital Medical Center (Group) Enze Hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into observation and control groups ( n = 47/group). The control group was treated with methylprednisolone. The observation group was treated with montelukast sodium combined with methylprednisolone. The course of treatment was 2 weeks in both groups. Efficacy and changes in inflammatory factors and immune function post-treatment relative to those pre-treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:Total response rate in the observation group [93.62% (44/47)] was significantly higher than that in the control group [74.47% (35/47), Z = 2.15, P < 0.05)]. After treatment, interleukin (IL-4), IL-6, and IL-18 levels in each group were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment ( tobservation group = 21.19, 22.26, 27.20, tcontrol group = 11.10, 13.21, 14.86, all P < 0.05). After treatment, IL-4, IL-6, and IL-8 levels in the observation group were (48.98 ± 5.21) ng/L, (34.10 ± 6.42) ng/L, and (53.29 ± 5.67) ng/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (65.38 ± 7.08) ng/L, (47.83 ± 4.71) ng/L, (67.83 ± 7.10) ng/L in the control group ( t = 12.79, 11.82, 10.97, all P < 0.05). After treatment, CD3 +, CD4 +, and CD4 +/CD8 + in each group were significantly increased compared with those before treatment ( tobservation group = 14.27, 14.41, 17.61, tcontrol group = 6.90, 5.12, 7.40, all P < 0.05). After treatment, CD3 +, CD4 +, and CD4 +/CD8 + in the observation group were (68.94 ± 2.89)%, (39.94 ± 2.15)%, and (1.79 ± 0.13), respectively, which were significantly higher than (63.86 ± 3.28)%, (35.65 ± 2.31)%, and (1.53 ± 0.16) in the control group ( t = 7.96, 9.32, 8.64, all P < 0.05). After treatment, serum IgG and IgM levels in each group were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment ( tobservation group = 21.00, 7.99, tcontrol group = 8.38, 5.76, both P < 0.05). After treatment, serum IgG and IgM levels in the observation group were (1.43 ± 0.19) g/L and (9.74 ± 0.78) g/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (1.95 ± 0.37) g/L and (10.89 ± 0.85) g/L in the control group ( t = 8.57, 6.83, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:Montelukast sodium combined with methylprednisolone is highly effective on allergic purpura in children. The combined therapy can reduce inflammatory responses and improve immune function in children.
