Objective: To investigate the changes of sugar chain structures of serum amylase and difference in TCM syndrome patterns in primary hepatic cancer (PHC) patients and their relation with free radicals. Methods: Agglutinin precipitation assay was used to detect the binding ratios of serum amylase with various kinds of agglutinin in PHC, hepatocirrhosis, and hepatitis patients. The serum amylase activity and malindialdehyde (MDA) level were determined simultaneously. The association of the binding ratios of amylase with free radicals was analyzed. The difference mentioned above in PHC patients with different TCM syndromes was analyzed. Results: The binding ratios of serum amylase to ConA, PSA, PNA, and LCA were significantly higher in PHC and hepatocirrhosis patients than hepatitis patients and normal controls. The binding ratios of serum amylase to PSA and LCA were significantly higher in PHC patients with spleen deficiency and liver stagnation than those with liver and kidney Yin deficiency. PHC patients with spleen deficiency and liver stagnation had higher ConA-binding ratio compared with those with QI and blood stasis. A positive correlation was found between PSA-, LCA-, and PNA-binding ratios of serum amylase and MDA. Conclusion: For PHC and hepatocirrhosis patients, core-fucosylated high-mannose-type and hybrid-type sugar chains of serum amylase increased. The reduced terminal sialic acid and fucose on the sugar chain caused the exposure of the terminal galactose residues. In addition, the exposure of the terminal GlcNAc residues was induced by decreased terminal galactose on the sugar chain of serum amylase from HPC patients. These changes of serum amylase were also observed in hepatocirrhosis patients. It may be related with the damage of sugar chains induced by free radicals. In spleen deficiency and liver stagnation group, core-fucosylated high-mannose-type and hybrid-type sugar chains of serum amylase increased, and the terminal galactose on the sugar chain decreased, resulting in the exposure of the terminal GlcNAc residues. The changes were not observed in QI and blood stasis or liver and kidney Yin deficiency patients. It indicated that spleen deficiency and liver stagnation played an important role in generation of aberrant sugar chains of serum amylase for PHC patients.

Objective To explore the impact of concentrated teaching, self-help training, intensive training, scenario simulation and other systemic training methods on the health teaching level of community health education staff,and the impact of community health education on cultivation of residents' health behavior before and after training. Methods 60 community doctors and nurses involved in systematic training. Taught concentrated 8 hours every week, and continuous for 4 weeks with medicine, psychology, sociology, pedagogy, aesthetics and production of courseware. Trainees who awarded 80 points or more in examination took part in simulated scene training, which completed a 30-minute design of concentrated health lesson and a 15-minute design of one to one health lesson in written form and multimedia teaching. Teaching effect-site was evaluated by the residents of the community lectures. The impact on cultivation of residents' behaviors was evaluated with ruler evaluation method.Results The community health care workers' teaching ability had significant change after training: plan design (2.32 ± 1.41 vs 4.26 ±0.61 ), lectures (2.63 ±0.89 vs 4.09 ±0.93), teaching skills ( 1.97 ± 1.32 vs 3.89 ±1. 13 ), teaching aids configuration ( 1.68 ± 1. 43 vs 3.97 ± 1. 26 ), educational methods ( 2.01 ± 0. 96 vs 4.03 ±0.82), time control (2.83 ±0.26 vs 4.67 ±0.25), the classroom atmosphere (2.78 ± 1. 13 vs 4.12 ±0.67),courseware ( 2.48 ± 1. 08 vs 3.89 ± 1.02 ) , teaching the image ( 2.15 ± 1.15 vs 4.06 ± 0.78 ), overall evaluation (2.36 ± 1.21 vs 4. 16 ± 0.65 )(P ＜ 0. 0 1 ).

Objective To investigate the effect of pretreatment of pioglitazone on acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) rats. Methods ANP was induced by retrograde injection of 5% sedinm deoxycholate into bilio-pancreatic ducts. The animals were randomly divided into ANP (n=18), sham operation (n=18) and pioglitazone pretreatment group (n=18). Pioglitazone was given 20 mg/kg in pioglitazone group before ANP was induced. The rats were sacrificed 3 h, 6 h, 12 h after ANP induction, respectively. Bblood samples were taken for serum amylase measurement. Tissue samples of pancreas were harvested for morphological observation under conventional light microscopy. Pathological change of pancreas was evaluated by Hughes and Kusske score system. Results The concentration of serum amylase and the pancreatic histological score in pioglitazone and ANP groups were significantly higher than those in sham operation group (P＜0.001 ). The concentration of serum amylase, Hughes and Kusske score in pioglitazone group at 12 h after ANP induction were (2980± 1080) U/L,4.50±2.07 and 7.50±1.05, respectively, and were lower than (7598±1072) U/L, 7.17±1.47 and 11.33±1.75 of ANP group at 12 h (P＜0.01). Conclusions Pioglitazone pretreatment could decrease the serum level of amylase and the pancreatic histological score. Pioglitazone may ameliorate the severity of ANP.

Using a UPLC-MS/MS (MRM) and cocktail probe substrates method, the metabolic fingerprint of the compatibility of Radix Aconite (RA) and Radix Paeoniae Alba (RPA) and its effect on CYP450 enzymes were investigated. These main CYP isoforms include CYP 1A2, CYP 2C, CYP 2E1, CYP 2D and CYP 3A. Compared with the inhibition effect of RA decoctions on CYP450 isoforms, their co-decoctions of RA and RPA with different proportions can decrease RA' inhibition on CYP3A, CYP2D, CYP2C and CYP1A2, but can not reduce RA' effect on CYP2E1. The metabolic fingerprints of RA decoction and co-decoctions with different proportions of RPA in CYP450 of rat liver were analyzed by UPLC-MS. Compared with the metabolic fingerprints of RA decoction, the intensity of diester-diterpenoid aconitum alkaloids decreased significantly, while the intensity of monoester-diterpenoid alkaloids significantly increased in the metabolic fingerprints of co-decoctions of RA and RPA. The results suggest that RA coadministration with RPA increased the degradation of toxic alkaloid and show the effect of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing.
