1.Orexin A and cerebrovascular diseases
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2015;(5):374-377
Orexins are a class of important hypothalamic neuropeptides,including type A and B. Orexins are associated w ith numerous physiological functions, including sleep-aw akening, energy balance, endocrine and visceral functions, and they also have certain relations w ith the pathophysiological changes, such as drow siness and drug abuse. In recent years, the pathophysiological role and mechanism, as w el as the clinical significance of orexins in cerebrovascular diseases are causing concern. This article summarizes the roles of orexins and focuses on the roles of orexin A in cerebrovascular diseases.

Tianjin Medical Journal 2016;44(3):302-305
Objective To investigate the effects of Pulsatilla saponin D and sorafenib on the metastasis of human hepa?toma cell line. Methods The human hepatoma cell line BEL-7402 cells were divided into Pulsatilla saponin D group (con?centration of 11.9 mg/L), sorafenib group (concentration of 2.15μmol/L), the combined group (Pulsatilla saponin D 11.9 mg/L+Sorafenib 2.15μmol/L) and the control group (ordinary broth). The inhibition effects of Pulsatilla saponin D and sorafenib monotherapy and combination therapy on BEL-7402 cell migration were detected by MTT assay, Transwell chamber experi?ment and cell scratch experiment. Western blot assay was used to detect the expression levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 gene protein. Results MTT assay showed that Pulsatilla saponin D (11.9 mg/L), sorafenib (2.15μmol/L) monotherapy and combination therapy had inhibitory effects on BEL-7402 cell proliferation, and the 24-h inhibi?tion rate was<15%. Results of Transwell chamber experiment and cell scratch test showed that the migration inhibitory rate was significantly higher in combination group than that of monotherapy group (P<0.01). The combined effect of madicine was the addition (0.85≤Q≤1.15). Western blot detection showed that there was a higher effect of down-regulation on MMP-2 and MMP-9 in combined group than that of monotherapy group. Conclusion Pulsatilla saponin D and sorafenib synergis?tically inhibit the metastasis of BEL-7402 cells. The joint effects are superior to monotherapy.

5.Role of transforming growth factor beta and bone morphogenetic protein-7 in repairing of articular cartilacle injury
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2009;13(46):9151-9154
OBJECTIVE:To elucidate the role of transforming growth factor-β and bone morphogenetic protein-7 in the reparation of knee cartilage by summarizing related studies,which can provide an important reference for further clinical applications.DATA SOURCES:The science online,ElsecierSD databases,Springer Link electronic joumals nets(1991-01/2009-06)was searched using key words of"Articular Cartilage Defects,Transforming Growth Factor-β,Bone Morphogenic Protein-7";simultaneously,the CNKI,Wanfang database,Tsinghua Tong Fang database(1991-01/2009-06)was searched with the same Chinese key words.Literature search was limited to English and Chinese languages.DATA SELECTION:Literature addressing repairing articular cartilage damage with growth factors was included,and the repeated papers were excluded.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Frecture healing.②Osteocyte proliferation.③Capacity of chonddfication.RESULTS:Received 95 computers seized in early literature,according to inclusion exclusion criteria,literature underlying growth factor,in particular the growth factor transforming growth factor-β and bone morphogenetic protein-7 in repaidng knee cartilagedamage was analyzed.Articular cartilage injury,with poor repair capacity,is more common in athletes.As soon as a permanent injury that generates lesions,it is difficult to treat by traditional treatment methods,which need to be solved in sports medicine.Transforming growth factor-β,an important factor regulating the formation of cartilage,stimulates or inhibits a variety of cells.By increasing the sensitivity of chondrocytes,transforming growth factor-β plays a central role in the process of repairing osteoarthdtis cartilage injury,regulates in vitro protein synthesis,but also affect on the induction of specific granulation tissues.Bone morphogenetic protein-7 can induces cartilage-specific collagen and mucin production by mesenchymal and wound areas,which has promotive effect on cartilage reparation.CONCLUSION:Transforming growth factor-β or bone morphogenetic protein-7 has certain effect on knee cartilage injury;however,whether the combination of them can promote reparation of articular cartilage injury needs to be explored.

Objective To study the value of the neuron-specific enolase(NSE) in the serum of patients with cerebral stroke in diagnosis, seriousness and evaluation of prognosis. Methods The levels of NSE in the serum of 77 patients with cerebral stroke(36 cases with hemorrhage, 41 cases with infarction) were measured by radio-immunoassay (RIA)method.Results The serum leves of NSE both in cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage patients were obviously higher than those of the control group( P 0.05). In the first week there was a positive correlation between NSE serum level and neurological deficit scores,the volume of haemorrhage, the volume of infarction( P 0.05) . Conclusion The NSE level in serum may be served as a objective index of seriousness and early diagnosis in stroke, but no helpful in differential diagnosis and evaluation of prognosis.
