This study was aimed to observe the acute toxicity and long-term toxicity of Meng-Gen-Wu-Su-18 (MGWS-18) Pills, in order to provide references for safety application of this medicine in the clinical practice. MGWS-18 Pills suspension was intragastric administered to mice twice (0.2 mL/10 g) in 6 hours with maximal con-centration (0.4 g·mL-1). And the acute toxicity reaction was observed for 14 days. The dose of maximum, middle and minimum (3.67 g·kg-1, 1.84 g·kg-1, 0.92 g·kg-1) of MGWS-18 Pills were intragastric administered continuously to rats once a day for 180 days. The rats were observed 60 days after drug withdrawal. The results showed that the maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of MGWS-18 Pills was bigger than the dose of 16 g·kg-1 (which was equivalent to 436.36 times in clinical doses). There were significant differences on ALB, UREA, AST, TBIL, and CHOL between the control group and the maximum dose group of MGWS-18 Pills (P<0.05, or P<0.01) after 180 days of medica-tion. There were significant differences on ALB and UREA between the control group and the middle dose group (P< 0.05). There was no significant difference between the control group and the minimum dose group. Protein cast and degeneration necrosis at different levels of the epithelial cells of the proximal tubules were appeared in the maximum dose group after medication for 180 days. After 60 days of drug withdrawal, there were no significant dif-ferences on the general condition, body weight, hematological indexes, serum biochemical indexes, organ coefficient and etc. between the control group and each animal group. There was recovery tendency on the kidney damage of the maximum dose group. It was concluded that the basic safety intragastric administration dosage of MGWS-18 Pills in rats was 0.92 g·kg-1 (which was equivalent to 25 times in clinical doses).

Objective To observe the effect of different temperatures on endoplasmic reticulum stress, calcium overload, mitochondria and cell damage in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC) induced by heat stress, and clarify the mechanism of endothelial cell injury in the process of heat stress to provide experimental basis for clinical prevention and treatment of heat stree. Methods Heat stress model of PMVEC cell was set up. Control group cells were incubated at 37℃, 5%CO2, while heat stress group cells were incubated at 39℃, 41℃, 43℃ for 2h, respectively, then further incubated at 37℃, 5%CO2 for 6h. Pretreatment of cells with 20μmol/L BAPTA-AM or 50μmol/L CsA before heat stress at 43℃. The protein levels of p-PERK, PERK p-eIF2a, eIF2a, ATF4 and GRP78 were analyzed by Western blotting. Intracellular Ca2+, mitochondrial membrane potential and the changes in mitochondrial permeability transition pore were investigated by flow cytometry. The change of caspase-3 was detected by Caspase Assay Kit. Millicell-ERS Volt-Ohm Meter and Accessories was used for determining the changes of transepithelium electrical resistance (TER). Results Compared with the control group, with the increase of heat stress temperature (41-43℃), the phosphorylation of p-PERK and p-eIF2a protein and the expressions of ATF4 and GRP78 proteins were gradually activated, intracellular Ca2+ increased, MPTP pore was opened, mitochondrial membrane potential decreased, cell permeability increased and apoptosis occurred, and it was the most obvious in the 43℃ heat stress group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Pretreatment with Ca2+ inhibitors promoted the recovery of the MPTP hole, mitochondrial membrane potential and cell permeability, and reduced the occurrence of apoptosis. While pretreatment with the mitochondrial protective agent did not reduce the release of Ca2+, but it could promote the recovery of cell permeability and reduce the occurrence of apoptosis. Conclusion Heat stress activates endoplasmic reticulum stress response, induces intracellular Ca2+ overload mediated cell and mitochondrial damages in PMVEC cells, which may be one of the important mechanisms of endothelial cell injury induced by heat stress.

ING1 family is a candidate for tumor suppressor,which has three splicing isoforms named p47ING1a,p33ING1b,and p24ING1c. Study of the effect of different isoforms of ING1 on HeLa cells proliferation and its molecular mechanism would help further identifying the functional relationship of ING1 isoforms,and finding important genes regulated by ING1. Cell growth curve and cell cycle analysis were used to observe the effect of ING1a,ING1b,and ING1c on HeLa cells growth,and the result indicated that they could all inhibit HeLa cells growth by arresting cell cycle at G0/G1 phase. PCR method was used to construct the PHD domain deletions of ING1a and ING1b. ING1a,ING1b,ING1c and the PHD domain deletions 1a?C and 1b?C were then overexpressed in HeLa cells. p16INK4a,PTEN/p27Kip1 and p53/p21Waf1 protein levels were detected by Western blot. The result showed that ING1a,ING1b,ING1c,and 1a?C except for 1b?C induced p16INK4a protein expression,in which ING1c had the most powerful effect. Luciferase assay identified that overexpression of pcDNA3.1(+)-1a?C facilitated p16INK4a transcription through enhancing p16INK4a promoter activity,while pcDNA3.1(+)-1b?C repressed the p16INK4a promoter activity . In a word,it was found for the first time that except for the p53/p21Waf1 pathway,three splicing isoforms of ING1 family could also inhibit HeLa cells proliferation though upregulation of p16INK4a and PTEN,and the PHD domain deletion of ING1a enhanced p16INK4a transcription. These findings provide new clews to further study on the mechanisms of ING1 family suppressing cancer cells growth.
