OBJECTIVE:To explore the repairing effect and mechanism of Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula on the mucosal dam-age of rats with ulcerative colitis (UC). METHODS:72 rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,mesalamine group(positive control,0.3 g/kg),Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups(5,10,20 g/kg),12 in each group. Except for blank group,other groups were induced UC model. After 4 d of modeling,rats in administration groups received related medicines,ig,blank group and model group received normal saline,ig,once a day,for 2 weeks. After administra-tion,disease activity index(DAI)and mucosal damage index(CMDI)of rats were observed;IL-8,TNF-α contents in serum and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) expression in colon tissue were detected. RESULTS:Compared with blank group,DAI and CMDI scores in model group were increased;IL-8,TNF-α contents in serum were increased;COX-2 expression in colon tissue was en-hanced,with statistical significances (P<0.05). Compared with model group,DAI and CMDI scores in model group were de-creased;IL-8,TNF-α contents in serum were reduced;COX-2 expression in colon tissue was weakened,with statistical signifi-cances (P<0.05). Compared with mesalamine group, the above-mentioned indicators in Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula medi-um-dose,high-dose groups changed more obviously (P<0.05),and effects of Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula showed significant dose-effect relationship. CONCLUSIONS:Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula can improve disease activity status of UC rats and reduce colon mucosal damage,and the effects of medium-dose and high-dose Huazhuo jiedu yukui formula were better than mesalamine, which may be related to reducing inflammatory reaction and inhibiting COX-2 expression in colon tissue.

BACKGROUND: Studies have shown that sodium hyaluronate inhibits cartilage damage in osteoarthritis and accelerates regeneration of cartilage cels, to stabilize and repair the articular cartilage.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the therapeutic effect of sodium-rich plasma combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on rabbit knee osteoarthritis.
METHODS:Forty New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups, control group, combined group, sodium hyaluronate group, PRP group and model group, and then an osteoarthritis model of the right knee was made in each rabbit. After modeling, sodium hyaluronate+PRP, sodium hyaluronate, autologous PRP and normal saline were givenviathe knee joint cavity in the latter four groups, respectively, once a week for 5 weeks. The control group received no treatment, as normal controls. At 1 week after treatment, ELISA assay was used to detect serum interleukin-1, interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α levels, and changes of the articular cartilage were observed under a light microscope.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group, the levels of interleukin-1, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were al increased in the other four groups (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the levels of interleukin-1, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were lowered significantly in the combined, sodium hyaluronate and PRP groups (P< 0.01 orP< 0.05), and the most significant decline was in the combined group. Articular cartilage damage was severest in the model group and mildest in the combined group. Experimental findings indicate that intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate+PRP can reduce inflammation and protect the articular cartilage in knee osteoarthritis, which is better than a single drug injection.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of liver X receptor ( LXR ) agonist on expression of fatty acid synthase( FAS) in diabetic kidney. Methods In the part of in vivo study, immunostaining was used to detect the FAS protein expression in kidney. 16-week-old male db/db mice on C57BL/6 background were administered via gavage a LXR synthetic agonist, TO901317, at a dose of 3 mg · kg-1 · d-1 or vehicle ( 0. 5%Carboxymethyl Cellulose Sodium, CMC-Na) alone for 7 d;Quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect mRNA and protein levels of FAS and SREBP-1. In the part of in vitro study, MCT cell(a mouse murine proximal tubule cell line)was treated with 10μmol/L TO901317 for 24 h or transfected with active SREBP-1c expression vector (SREBP-1cN). HEK293 cells(a human renal tubule cell line)were transfected with mFAS-(1. 7 kb)-luc, LXR expression vector or SREBP-1cN for 12 h. Quantitative RT-PCR and luciferase reproter assay were utilized to examine FAS mRNA level and FAS promoter activity. Results FAS was abundantly expressed in renal cortex, with low expresson in renal glomeruli. The mRNA and protein expressious of FAS in kidney of db/db mice were lowered compared with db/m mice. TO90137 treatment increased FAS mRNA expression by 1. 3-fold. TO901317 increased expression of SREBP-1 in kidneys of db/m and db/db mice by 5. 1-fold and 17-fold, respectively. TO901317 and overexpression of SREBP-1c increased expression of FAS in MCT cells by 1. 5-fold and 1. 8-fold. Transcription activity of FAS were induced by TO901317, LXR, and SREBP-1cN overexpressions in HEK293 cells. Conclusions Both direct(LXRE)and indirect(SREBP-1c)mechanisms may contribute to the up-regulation of FAS expression by LXR in renal proximal tubule cells.
