Objective To investigate the preventive effects of Buyang Huanwu Decoction (BYHWD) and its recipe composition (BYJJF) in focal ischemic brain injury condition in vivo/in vitro. Methods In vivo studies, SD rats were divided into sham-operation group, MCAO group, BYHWD group and BYJJF group based on rat weight, 10 rats in each group. The body weight, infarct area and brain water contents were determined. In vitro studies, H2O2 was used to damage PC12 cells, and the vitro oxidative stress cell model was established. PC12 cells were divided into normal group, blank control group, BYHWD and BYJJF groups with different concentrations (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.5 mg/mL). MTT method was employed to determine the protective effects of BYHWD and BYJJF on model cells.Results Vivo studies showed that after 7 days of treatment with BYHWD and BYJJF, those determinated quotas were all significantly improved compared with MCAO model rats (P<0.05), and there were no differences between BYHWD and BYJJF (P>0.05).Vtiro studies showed that the protective effects of BYHWD and BYJJF took place 2 hours later, and it was obvious in oxidative stress injury caused by H2O2, with statistical differences with model group (P<0.05). BYHWD and BYJJF could increase cell viability, and there was no difference between the groups with same concentration (P>0.05).Conclusion The research confirmed that BYJJF plays a significant role in improving the cerebral ischemia injury, which is the same performance as BYHWD, and BYJJF can save TCM resources under the precondition of TCM efficacy.

Objective To study the protective effect of the thin Recipe of Buyanghuanwu on cerebral ischemic injury of rats. Methods Block model in cerebral artery was established through using the suture method of middle cerebral artery. The rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, model group, Buyanghuanwu group and thin recipe of Buyanghuanyin high, medium and low-dose groups. Buyanghuanwu group and thin recipe of Buyanghuanyin groups were given gavage with relevant medicine, and sham-operation group and model group were given gavage with the same amount of sterile distilled water for continuous 7 days. Matlab software programming was used to analyze data and observe the changes in neurological function, body weight, the area of cerebral infarction and wet/dry weight ratio of brain of the rats. Results Rats with cerebral ischemia suffered large area of infarction, brain edema and neurological dysfunction. The thin recipe of Buyanghuanwu of medium and low dose groups could effectively improve the indexes of model rats compared with the model group, the difference with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion The thin recipe of Buyanghuanwu has protective effect on cerebral ischemia, and the medium dose is the optimal dose.

Objective To investigate whether iron mass induces HO-1 overexpression and explore the role of HO-1 in rat intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH). Methods In this study,144 hydrated chloride aldehyde-anesthetized Sprague- Dawley rats were used,autologous blood were injected into the right caudate nucleus to establish the ICH model.Saline injection and health were served as controls.Deferoxamine(DFO)with an intraperitoneal injection served as intervention group.Enhanced Perl's reaction was used for iron staining and brain iron deposits were determined.Brain HO-1 level were examined by immunohistochemical analysis and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results There was a 21-fold increase in iron deposits around the hematoma 7 days after the infusion of 100 μl of autologous blood.Markedly increased levels of perihematomal HO-1 immunoreactivity and HO-1 mRNA in all ICH rats were detected at 3-14 days.The addition of DFO significantly reduced iron deposits in the ipsilateral basal ganglia at 7-14 days after ICH.DFO also inhibited HO-1 overexpression at day 7,14.Correlations test showed that there were positive correlations of iron sediments with HO-1mRNA(r=0.647)and HO-1 immunopositive cells(r=0.209). Conclusions ICH causes iron accumulation in the brain.Iron overloading may induce HO-1 upregulation after ICH.Ratherly,the HO-1 moderate increasing possibly fits with the events,whereas HO-1 overexpression may result in its dysfunction.It may be prudent to intervene ICH with HO-1 inhibitor.

OBJECTIVETo explore whether the dental restoration of nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) based alloys will lead to extra excretions of urinary Ni and Cr.

METHODSUrinary Ni and Cr were repeatedly measured in 33 patients before and 2 months after the dental restoration of Ni-Cr alloys. The associations between alloy restoration and urinary Ni or Cr were analyzed by paired t test and general linear model of repeated measures.

RESULTSA slightly higher urinary Ni was found in patients after 2 month of the alloy restoration, but the difference was not statistically significant (before: 46.4 microg x mol(-1) crea; after: 67.6 microg x mol(-1) crea; P=0.063). This difference was only in female subjects (before: 44.8 microg x mol(-1) crea; after: 73.7 microg x mol(-1) crea; P=0.068). A significant higher urinary Cr was found in patients after 2 month of the alloy restoration (before: 57.0 microg x mol(-1) crea; after: 99.4 microg x mol(-1) crea; P=0.024). This significant difference was only in female subjects (before: 59.8 microg x mol(-1) crea; after: 124.4 microg x mol(-1) crea; P=0.023). General linear models of repeated measurements showed that urinary excretions of Ni and Cr were associated with the number of restoration and the area of metal basis uncovered with porcelain.

CONCLUSIONDental restoration of Ni-Cr alloy might lead to the enhanced excretions of urinary Ni and Cr.
