BACKGROUND:Human amniotic epithelial cells are an important source of cells in regenerative medicine as its multipotentation, but new studies mainly focused on differentiation features and there were little research oneffect of culture in vitro on biological property of amniotic epithelial cells.
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the effects of in vitro culture on growth, cellphenotype and differentiation capacity of human amniotic epithelial cells into cardiomyocyte-like cells, and explore the correlation of primarily cultured human amniotic epithelial cells marker SSEA-4 expression level and the change of biological characteristics of human amniotic epithelial cells.
METHODS:Primarily cultured human amniotic epithelial cells were obtained from amniotic tissues by using the same separation protocol. Human amniotic epithelial cells were cultured in vitro. The proliferation, cellphenotype and the differentiation capacity of human amniotic epithelial cells into cardiomyocyte-like cells were evaluated by means of cellcounting kit-8, flow cytometry and real-time PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The SSEA-4 positive cells in primarily cultured human amniotic epithelial cells from different fetal tissues were between 26.7%-97%, which indicated that there was great individual difference among amniotic tissue samples. Moreover, with passage, the SSEA-4 expression in human amniotic epithelial cells decreased significantly, which did not correlate with the SSEA-4 expression in primarily cultured human amniotic epithelial cells. Results indicated that there was great individual difference in SSEA-4 expression level in primarily cultured human amniotic epithelial cells from different amniotic tissue samples. Thus, it is necessary to set up clinical screening indexes to get samples with higher SSEA-4 expression stably and to control the quality of human amniotic epithelial cells. In addition, during culture period, SSEA-4 expression level was affected by culture conditions. The culture conditions of human amniotic epithelial cells should be optimized to maintain SSEA-4 expression at a high level. In addition, the differentiation capacity of human amniotic epithelial cells into cardiomyocyte-like cells was also affected by individual difference among different samples and culture conditions, which wil be further studied in the future.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate ziprasidone plasma concentration, daily dose and clinical efficacy and safety in Han Chinese and Mongolian patients with first-episode schizophrenia. METHODS: A total of 123 inpatients affected by schizophrenia were recruited from the Mental Health Center of Inner Mongolia in China. Ziprasidone plasma concentration, clinical efficacy and side effects were systematically evaluated at baseline, and at 1, 2, 4, and 6 weeks. Metabolic measures such as changes in weight, body mass index (BMI), fasting blood glucose (FBG), triglycerides, and cholesterol, were also recorded. RESULTS: 90 patients completed the study. Compared with Han patients, on average, Mongolian patients received a significantly higher ziprasidone dosage for adequate symptom control during the 6-week period and had a lower plasma concentration-to-dose ratio. The Mongolian patients also experienced greater increases in weight and BMI. No significant differences between the two ethnic groups were found in the rate of reduction in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) score, Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) total score, FBG, triglycerides, cholesterol or Q-Tc interval. CONCLUSION: Compared to Han Chinese patients, Mongolian patients appeared to have increased ziprasidone clearance and require higher doses to achieve effective treatment for schizophrenia.

Based on the effect for replenishing Qi and preventing exhaustion, this essay provides a method to rebuild the quality evaluation system of Panax ginseng. As an independent medical system, the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) science lacks enough credible evidences to support its theory and thereby wants more relevant studies. Current, it is a misunderstanding for experimental studies on TCM to prove TCM drugs from the angle of western medicine. Therefore, following study modes are recommended to researchers focusing on either the theory of the unique importance of class origin or the theory of the unique importance of techniques. Under the guidance of TCM theories, a new TCM assessment mode, consisting of clinical efficacy, pharmacological effect and effective components, is established in line with clinical application of TCMs. Studies on Chemical fingerprint or active ingredient are made on effective components. In-depth studies are worth to the viewpoint to rebuild the TCM quality reassessment system. On the basis of analysis on ancient herbal literatures and experience in clinical application of TCMs, the author proves the irreplaceable effect of P. ginseng. (pure ginseng decoction) is to replenish Qi and prevent exhaustion. Based on the major effect, a pharmacological model is established in combination with modern clinical efficacy to screen effective components of ginseng herbs and make a quality assessment on safety and efficiency of clinical application of P. ginseng, in order to provide theoretical and experimental basis for cultivation, development and utilization of P. ginseng resources on Changbai mountain.

OBJECTIVETo establish a blood glucose fluctuation model in diabetic rats.
METHODSMale SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups, namely normal group and diabetes group. Rat model of diabetes was established by single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) and then divided into sustained high blood glucose group and blood glucose fluctuation group. Rat model of blood glucose fluctuation was established by subcutaneous injection with regular insulin or gavaging of glucose twice daily in diabetic rats. The general condition, body weight, daily blood glucose levels of 5 different times, daily average blood glucose (MBG), standard deviation of daily average blood glucose (SDBG), the maximum amplitude of glycemic excursions (LAGE), fasting serum insulin (FINS) and pancreatic tissue pathology were observed.
RESULTSRats in blood glucose fluctuation group and sustained high blood glucose group developed symptoms of polyphagia, polyuria and polydipsia. Though significant differences in body weight were observed at different time (P<0.01), no significant differences were found among the three groups (P>0.05). After 6 weeks of blood glucose fluctuation, MBG, SDBG and LAGE in blood glucose fluctuation group and sustained high blood glucose group were increased significantly than those in normal group (P<0.01), the level of FINS decreased markedly (P<0.05). SDBG and LAGE in blood glucose fluctuation group were higher than those in sustained high blood glucose group (P<0.01). Islet of diabetic rat became atrophy, irregular shape, sparse distribution, and decreased in number, and the changes were more obvious in blood glucose fluctuation group.
CONCLUSIONRat model of blood glucose fluctuation can be successfully established by subcutaneous injection of regular insulin of gavage of glucose twice daily in diabetic rats.

OBJECTIVETo study major human UGT isoforms involved in trans-resveratrol (TR) phase II metabolism.
METHODtrans-resveratrol and 12 major human UGT isoforms were incubated in vitro and then glucuronic acid metabolites were determined by HPLC-MS, in order to preliminarily analyze the structure and observe the effect of different UGT isoforms on the generation rate of glucuronic acid metabolites.
RESULTIn in vitro metabolic system, two metabolites-4'-O-monoglucuronide resveratrol (M-1) and 3-0-monoglucuronide resveratrol (M-2)-were generated from trans-resveratrol after being catalyzed by UGT. During the cause, generation of M-1 and M-2 were catalyzed by UGT1A1, UGT1A3, 1A8, 1A9 andlA10, whereas only UGT1A6 and 1A7 contributed to the forma-tion of M-2. Both the formation rate of M-1 and M-2 catalyzed by UGT1A1, 1A10 and the formation of M-2 catalyzed by UGT1A8 slowed down with the increasing concentration of substrates, causing the phenomenon of "substrate inhibition".
CONCLUSIONUGT1A1, 1A8, 1A9, 1A10 get involved in the formation of M-1, and of them UGTIA9 is the most important contributor. UGT1A3 also makes small contribution to the formation of M-1 and M-2, while other UGT isoforms show hardly any reaction with the trans-resveratrol phase II metabolites.
