Objective To explore the effects of exogenous methionine on arsenical distribution in liver,blood and brain of mice exposed to sodium arsenite through drinking water. Methods The female Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group, the alone arsenic exposure group , the low level methionine intervention group, the moderate level methionine intervention group and the high level methionine intervention group, eight mice in each group . The mice in the experimental groups were exposed to sodium arsenite through drinking water at 50 mg/L arsenic for four consecutive weeks. And at the fourth week the 5 groups were treated intraperitoneally with saline solution (control and As group),100 mg/kg b.w,200 mg/kg b.w or 400 mg/kg b.w methionine,respectively . Twenty-four hours after cessation of methionine administration,mice were anaesthetized and rapidly dissected. The samples of blood,liver and brain were removed immediately for arsenic species analysis. Levels of inorganic arsenic (iAs),monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsenic acid (DMA) were determined by HG-AAS method. Then total arsenic speciation( TAs), primary methylation ratio( PMR)and secondary methylation ratio( SMR)in each tissue were calculated. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of iAs, MMA, DMA and TAs in liver, brain and blood, were significantly higher in all experimental groups ( P

Objective To investigate wheter epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) could prevent the information of abrant crypt loci (ACF) induced by isoquinoline (IQ)and its possible mechanisms. Methods Sixty male BALB/cA nude immunological deficit mice were divided into five groups. Except control group, the other four groups were received IQ to induce ACF. The rats in low, medium and high dose groups were received 5, 10 and 20 mg/kg of EGCG,respectively. The mice were sacrificed six weeks later. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and 0.2% methylene blue staining were used to observe the routine histology and ACF, respectively. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect Nrf2 protein level and RT-PCR was used to detect Nrf2 and UGT1A10 mRNA levels in colon tissue. Results The body weights of model group decreased significantly compared to high-dose group (21.70±0.13 vs. 24.37±0.07, P<0.01). Compared to model group, the degree of atypical hyperplasia and even canceration of colon mucus and the number of total ACF and total AC in high-dose group were decreased significantly (18.00±7.51 vs. 64.20±45.18, P<0.05;63.90±18.58 vs. 168. 80±35.34, P<0.01). The protein level of Nrf2 increased (0.3114±0.0037 vs. 0.1660±0.0021, P<0.01). The mRNA levels of Nrf2 and UGT1A10 in high-dose group was increased (both P value<0.01). Conclusions EGCG has protective effect on IQ induced preneoplastic lesions through reducing the number of ACF. This effect may be caused partly through the signal pathway Nrf2-UGT1A10.

National traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) master professor Ban Xiuwen had rich experiences on treatment of gynecological diseases with unique insights on diagnosis and treatment for disorders of menstruation, leukorrhea, pregnancy and delivery. FemaleYin-Wei, which was a gynecological disorder, was recorded in the book ofHuang-Di Nei-Jing. However, due to different reasons, TCM study on femaleYin-Wei was far less than the study on male impotence. ProfessorBan Xiuwen had specific considerations for this disease on the book of Treatment of Miscellaneous Gynecological Diseases. In his understanding, femaleYin-Wei was due to four aspects, which were the innate deficiency, yang deficiency and coldness of the uterus; seven emotion damage, liver-qi soothing disorder; spleen-stomach deficiency,qi-blood deficiency; and phlegm-dampness stasis,qi stagnation. Through the analysis and study on case records of femaleYin-Wei treatment by national TCM master professorBan Xiuwen, this article briefly elaborated professorBan Xiuwen’s understandings on femaleYin-Wei treatment from etiology, pathogenesis, treatment according to syndrome differentiation, and clinical experiences. Two femaleYin-Wei cases treated by professorBan Xiuwen were given as examples in order to analyze the etiology, pathogenesis, treatment according to syndrome differentiation and treatment experiences in details. The therapeutic effects of both cases were obvious, which were also important study documents.

Objective To investigate the preventive effects of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) on growth and metastases of orthotropic colonic cancer. Methods Forty BALB/C male nude mice were prepared for model of colonic cancer and then divided into control group and low-, medium- and high-dose of EGCG groups with 10 each. Except control group, the mice in other three groups were treated with 5, 10 and 20 mg·kg~(-1)·d~(-1) of EGCG. The effect of EGCG on growth and metastases of colonic cancer was observed. The histopathologic changes of liver and lung were observed with HE, and protein expression of NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in cancerous tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry. RT-PCR was used to examine mRNA levels of Nrf2, UDP-glucuronosyhrans-ferase (UGT)1A, UGT1A8 and UGT1A10. Results In comparison with control group [(564±130) mg], the average weight of the tumor in low-, medium- and high-dose groups was (152±63) mg, (76±42) mg and (18±10)mg, respectively, with tumor inhibitory rate of 73.0%, 86.5% and 96.8%, respectively (all P value<0.05). There was a positive correlation between tumor inhibitory effect and dosage of EGCG (P<0.05). The protein expression of Nrf2 and the mRNA levels of Nrf2, UGT1A, UGTIA8 and UGTIA10 in three EGCG treated groups were increased significantly compared with control group (P<0.05), and there was a phenomenon of nuclear transcription of Nrf2. Conclusions EGCG can prevent local growth and metastases of orthotopic colonic cancer in a dose-dependent manner in nude mice. The inhibitory effect may be caused by inducing the expressions of Nrf2, UGT1A, UGT1A8 and UGT1A10 genes.

A novel method for the detection of moroxydine ( ABOB) residue in tomatoes was developed based on the enhancement of the fluorescence intensity of CdTe quantum dots( QDs) in the presence of ABOB. The factors influencing the performance of the QDs fluorescent probes were investigated, and the optimum conditions were determined:the concentration of mercaptoacidic acid ( TGA) capped-CdTe quantum dot was 1×10-4 mol/L, and the reaction time was 20 min at pH=5. 6. Under the optimum conditions, the relative fluorescence intensity increases linearly proportional to the ABOB concentration in the range of 1. 0×10-12-5. 0×10-10 mol/L with a limit of detection of 5. 2×10-13 mol/L, R=0. 9981, the recovery was 97%-106%, without obvious interference on the determinations of moroxydine from the common coexisting ions, antibiotics, and vitamins. The proposed method has been successfully applied in the detection of trace moroxydine hydrochloride residue in tomatoes.
