Objective To investigate the effect of daurinoline on basilar artery vascular smooth muscle. Methods The tension of isolated basilar artery ring of rabbit was measured. The effects of daurinoline on the basilar artery contracted by methoxamine,5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),KCl and Histamine( His)were also examined. Dose-response curves of 5-HT and KCl were observed as well. Results Daurinoline exerted obvious relaxation effect on the basilar artery vascular ring contracted by methoxamine,5-HT,KCl and His in a concentration-dependent manner. IC50 of daurinoline in methoxamine,5-HT,KCl and His-treated rabbits was 8.67×10-5,1.78×10-6,6.79×10-7 and 4.98×10-4 mol·L-1,respectively. The change of concentration-response curves of methoxamine,5-HT,KCl and His showed that daurinoline was a non-competitive antagonist. Conclusion Daurinoline exerts marked relaxation effect on basilar artery of rabbits through non-competitive antagonism. The mechanism of relaxation action may be related to blockage of voltage-dependent or receptor-dependent calcium channels.

Objective To evaluate the role of conventional protein kinase Cγ (cPKCγ)/growthassociated protein-43 (GAP-43) signaling pathway in ketamine-induced apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of developing rats in an in vitro experiment.Methods Primarily cultured hippocampal neurons were seeded in culture plates at a density of 1×10.6 cells/ml and divided into 2 groups (n=10 each) using a random number table:control group (C group) and ketamine group (K group).Group C received no treatment.Ketamine was added with the final concentration of 300 μmol/L in group K.At 12 h of culture or incubation,the apoptosis in hippocampal neurons was detected by flow cytometry.The apoptotic rate was calculated.The expression of cPKCγ,GAP-43 and phosphorylated GAP-43 in hippocampal neurons was measured by Western blot.Results Compared with group C,the apoptotic rates of hippocampal neurons were significantly increased,and the expression of cPKCγ,GAP-43 and phosphorylated GAP-43 was down-regulated in group K (P<0.01).Conclusion The mechanism by which ketamine induces apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of developing rats may be related to inhibition of cPKCγ/GAP-43 signaling pathway activation in an in vitro experiment.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of therapy to neonatal jaundice by Yinzhihuang particles.Methods72 cases from July 2015 to December 2016, were randomly divided into two groups and made all 36 cases in the control group, children in the control group given blue light therapy observation group were treated in the control group on the basis of Yinzhihuang particle therapy, follow-up and record two serum C-reactive protein (CRP), total bilirubin (TBIL), γ-alanine amino acyltransferase (γ-GT), alkaline phosphatase (AKP) and free fatty acid (FFA) levels and incidence of adverse reactions, the use ofstatistical methods for data analysis.Results① observation group after treatment CRP,TBIL, γ-GT values were better than the control group, and the difference was significant (P<0.05).② observation group in the AKP, FFA values after treatment than the control group, and the difference was significant (P<0.05).③ observation group rash during treatment, the incidence of diarrhea were (0.00%, 2.78%), were lower than the control group (11.11%, 16.67%), and the difference was significant (P<0.05).ConclusionYinzhihuang particle treatment of neonatal jaundice effect is good, worthy of further research and application.
