Objective: To study the role of estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) in the formation of cholesterol calculus and investigate the effects of Shengqing CapsuObjective: To observe the effects of Huzhang Gout Granule (HZGG), a compound traditional Chinese herbal medicine, on cyclooxygenase (COX) and 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) activities, the two important oxidases in the course of inflammation, so as to investigate the possible anti-inflammatory mechanism of HZGG. Methods: After stimulating the blood sample of healthy volunteer with calcium ionophore A23187, concentration of thromboxane B(2) (TXB(2)) in the healthy volunteer's blood was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to observe the effects of HZGG at low- and high-dose on the activity of COX-1, with aspirin as control drug. The concentration of prostaglandin I(2) (PGI(2)) in the healthy volunteer's blood sample, in which aspirin was added to destroy activity of COX-1 beforehand and which was stimulated with lipopolysaccharide, was detected by ELISA method to observe the effects of HZGG on the activity of COX-2, with celecoxib as control drug. In the animal experiment, 40 rats were implanted with sponges soaking in 0.5% arachidonic acid solution in the back to induce inflammatory effusion. Content of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in the polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) from the inflammatory effusions was detected with reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) to observe the impacts of different doses of HZGG on the activity of 5-LOX, with dexamethasone as control drug. Results: The concentration of TXB(2) in the low-dose HZGG group was higher than those in the high-dose HZGG group and the aspirin group (P<0.05). The concentrations of PGI2 in the low- and high-dose HZGG groups were higher than that in the celecoxib group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the low-dose HZGG group and the high-dose HZGG group (P>0.05). The content of LTB4 in the blank control group was higher than those in the low-dose HZGG group, the high-dose HZGG group or the dexamethasone group (P<0.05) Conclusion:HZGG can reduce the releasing of inflammatory mediators, such as TXB2, PGI2 and LTB4, by inhibiting the activities of COX and 5-LOX.

ObjectiveTo study the value of localizing different types of auras. MethodsThe 31cases with epilepsy were divided into a group with auras (n =19) and a group without auras (n =12).Student t-test was used to analyze difference in onset age in the two groups. The chi-square test was used to analyze the differences in the rates of abnormal brain MRI in two groups and in the efficiency of epileptic surgery between the two groups.ResultsThe 19 patients in aura group had psychiatric symptoms,autonomic symptoms, somatosensory, visual, hearing, and dizziness auras. These auras and EEG and other examines presumebly localized the epilepsy lesions in temporal lobe, temporal lobe, contralateral parietal or temporal lobe, occipital or temporal lobe, contralateral temporal lobe, and temporal-parietal lobe. After the surgery, auras diminished in all these patients. There was no significant differences in onset age and in presence of abnormal brain MRI between the two groups. The percentage of efficient epileptic surgery in the group with aura (15/19) was significantly higher than that in the other group( 5/12, x2 =4. 456, P =0. 035). ConclusionsEpileptic aura has significant value in localization of lesion. It can help determine the origins of the epilepsy focal and guide epilepsy surgery.
