2.Effects of Long Jing 1 on isolated rat thoracic aortic rings
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1986;0(02):-
Long Jing 1 (L01) is the effective component extracted from asiatic todd-alia. In the experiments on rat thoracic aortic rings, L01 45-405 ?mol/L inhibited thecontraction initiated by high K~+ or NE, the IC_(50) value was 206.93 and 94.18 ?mol/Lrespectively. L01 shifted the dose-response curve of KCl or NE to the right, and reducedthe maximal response, also shifted that of CaCl_2 to the right parallelly. The effects ofL01 were similar to that of Ver (verapamil) in the blockage on PDC. Morever L01 80 ?mol/Linhibited the release of intracellular Ca~(2+) and extracellular Ca~(2+) influx initiated by NE,the former effect was more significant than the latter (this was different from Ver). Theseresults suggested that L01 was probably a new calcium antagonist different from Ver.

Objective To investigate the effect of different antiplatelet or anticoagulation therapy on postoperative pocket hematoma after electrophysiological devices placements (EPD). Methods The clinic data of 410 patients who took anti-platelet or anticoagulation therapy and needed to be implanted EPD from February 2012 to February 2015 were selected. According to the type of therapy, patients were divided into 4 groups:dual anti-platelet drug (DAP) treatment group (DAP group, 114 cases), low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) bridging treatment group (LMWH group, 98 cases), aspirin (ASA) alone group (ASA group, 94 cases) and warfarin group (104 cases). The incidence of pocket hematoma after electrophysiological devices placements was observed. The risk factors of pocket hematoma were analyzed. Results The incidence of pocket hematoma was higher in LMWH group than that in the other 3 groups: 18.4% (18/98) vs. 4.4% (5/114), 3.2% (3/94) and 2.9% (3/104), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). But there were no significant differences in the incidence of pocket hematoma among DAP group, ASA group and warfarin group (P>0.05). The multiple Logistic regression analysis revealed that LMWH bridging therapy was an independent risk factor for the development of pocket hematoma (OR=7.105, 95%CI 1.872-17.283). Conclusions LMWH bridging therapy can increase the risk of development of pocket hematomas after electrophysiological devices placement.

Objective To clone cathepsin L (CTSL) gene and construct the eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3. 1-CTSL and study the relationship between CTSL and invasion and metastasis in ovarian cancer cells in vitro. Methods The total RNA was extracted from the ovarian cancer tissue and the intact cDNA of CTSL was applied by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. The product of RT-PCR was cloned to pMD18-T vector, and subcloned to pcDNA3. 1 vector. It was tested by the enzymation and DNA sequencing.The eukaryotic expression plasmid of CTSL was introduced into HO8910 cells by liposome transfection reagent. RT-PCR was used to confirm the recombinant plasmid DNA integrated with the genomic DNA of HO8910 cells. Western blot was used to confirm the CTSL protein expression in positive clones cells. The cell growth curves, clonogenicity efficiency were observed. The cell cycles were measured by flow cytometer.The ability of invasion, metastasis and adhesion of ovarian cancer cells were detected by the matrigel invasion assay, transwell migration assay and adhesion assay, respectively. Results The results from restrictive enzyme analysis and sequencing showed that the CTSL gene was successfully inserted into pcDNA3. 1.Result from RT-PCR and western blot showed that the ovarian cancer cells which transfected by recombinant plasmid could express CTSL gene and protein. There was no difference between HO8910-CTSL and HO8910-pcDNA3. 1 cells in proliferation and adhesion ability (0.16±0.04 versus 0. 19±0. 04) of the cells (P>0.05). There was difference between HO8910-CTSL and HO8910-peDNA3.1 cells in matrigel invasion ability (0.34±0.18 versus 0.17±0.04) and metastasis ability (1.252±0.114 versus 0.486±0.027) of cancer(all P<0.05). Conclusion CTSL maybe increase the ability of invasion and metastasis of ovarian cancer cells in vitro, which may be a molecular target of blocking invasion and metastasis of ovarian cancer.
