[Objective]To study the effect of Qingre Yiqi Tongluo(QRYQTL) preseription on proteinria in diabetic nephropathy(DN) rats by means of ob-servation on the expressions of fibroblast-specific protein 1(FSP1) and P-cadherin in in glomerulus in rats.[Methods]60 Sprague-Dawleg rats were divided into normal control group(N), Diabetic nephropathy model group(M), QRYQTL preseription treatment group(Q) and Irbesartan treatment group(I). DN model rats were prepared by intraperitoneal injection with STZ after unilateral nephrectomy. The rats were sacrificed after 12 weeks of the treatment. The creatinine clearance(Ccr),blood urea nitrogen(BUN) and 24h urinary protein(UPro) were tested. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to explore the expressions of P-cadherin and fsp1 in glomerulus.[Results] ①Compared with M group, the levels of 24-hour upro in Q group were significantly de-creased(P<0.01).The levels of Ccr and BUN in Q group were both lower than those of M group( P<0.05). ② Compared with M group, the expressions of P-cadherin in glomerulus in Q group were increased( P<0.01) and the expressions of FSP1 were obviously decreased( P<0.01). The expressions of FSP1 in Q group were decreased compared with that of I groups(P<0.05).[Conclusions]QRYQTL preseription weakened the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of podocyte by means of increasing the expression of P-cadherin and reducing the expression of FSP1, thereby decreased the Upro and protect the renal function.

[Objective]To investigate the mechanism of Qingre Yiqi Tongluo(QRYQTL) fang in treating the diabetic nephropathy. [Methods]60 Sprague-Dawleg rats were divided into normal control group(N), Diabetic nephropathy model group(M) (model rats were prepared by intraperitoneal injection with STZ after unilateral nephrectomy), then the model rats were assigned into model control group, QRYQTL fang treatment group(Q) and Irbesartan treatment group(I). After 12 weeks of the treatment, the contents of superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in renal tissue were examined by enzyme linked immunoassay(ELISA); the glomerular area(GA), mesangium area(MA),MA/GA, mean width of the podocyte foot processes(FPW) ,foot process fusion rate(FPFR) and average thickness of glomerular basement membrane(GBMT) were measured. [Results]Compared with N group, the contents of MDA in kidney homogenate and the GA,MA, FPW,FPFR,GBMT were markedly increased (P<0.01or P<0.05),the contents of SOD,CAT, GSH-Px and MA/GA were significantly decreased( P<0.01or P<0.05). QRYQTL fang reduced the level of MDA and decreased the GA, FPW, FPFR and GBMT(P<0.01or P<0.05). Compared with I group ,the QRYQTL fang was superior to Irbesartan in reducing the MDA, FPFR as wel as increasing the SOD,CAT(P<0.05).[ Conclusions]QRYQTL fang has a protective effect on the experimental diabec-tic nephropathy rats. The mechanism may be related to inhibiting oxidative stress, improving the body ’s antioxidant ability and al eviating the glomerular morphologic injury.

BACKGROUND:Chemotherapy drugs can damage the ovarian function in women of childbearing age, and even lead to premature ovarian failure. Therefore, to improve and restore the ovarian function in patients has become an important issue. OBJECTIVE:To explore the therapeutic effect and feasibility of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel therapy against chemotherapy-induced ovarian damage. METHODS:Rat models of chemotherapy-induced premature ovarian failure were established, and injected with PKH26-labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels. At 15, 30, 45, 60 days after cel transplantation, five rats were selected respectively to detect folicle-stimulating hormone and estradiol levels, and then, the rats were kiled to take the right ovary for pathological examination. The number of ovarian folicles was detected under light microscope. At 30 days after cel transplantation, another two rats were selected to mate with male rats to observe the difference in the reproductive activity. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Four of 22 rats (18%) gradualy recovered their estrous cycle after cel transplantation, with the decreased folicle-stimulating hormone level and increased estradiol level. Moreover, the number of folicles was reduced. Al of these indicated that the ability to have children in rats was not damaged.These experimental findings suggest that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels can partialy improve the ovarian function of rats under chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between gene polymorphisms of disease-relevant multiple cytokines including TNF-α,IL-6,IL-10,TGF-β1,IFN-γand acute graft versus host disease(aGVHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell trans-plantation ( allo-HSCT ) . Methods:32 cases of recipients received allo-HSCT and 36 cases of normal groups in January 2014 to December 2015 were selected as objects of study. We detected genotypes on specific SNP of target genes by polymerase chain reation ( PCR) combined with gene sequencing and observed the occurrence of aGVHD in postoperative recipients. The influence of cytokine gene polymorphisms on prognosis of allo-HSCT patients was analyzed,and the potential relationship between specific SNP mutation of the disease-relevant cytokine genes and severity of aGVHD was discussed. Results:Distribution of cytokines gene polymorphism including TNF-α-308(G/A),IL-6-174(G/C),IL-10-1082(A/G),TGF-β1+915(G/C),IFN-γ(T/A) had no significant differences with incidence of severe aGVHD(P>0. 05). However,the occurrence of severe aGVHD in allo-HSCT recipients with C/T genotype was significantly higher than C/C and T/T in SNP of TGF-β1+869(P<0. 01). Conclusion:Gene polymorphism of TGF-β1+869(C/T) in allo-HSCT patients was closely related to the occurrence of severe aGVHD. The research show allo-HSCT patients with C/T genotype occurred severe aGVHD more frequently, which is an important potential risk factor to induce the incidence of severe aGVHD. Therefore,detecting gene polymorphism of TGF-β1+869 ( C/T ) in allo-HSCT recipients and developing the appropriate therapeutic regimen may be helpful to reduce the incidence of aGVHD.
