AIM: To study the effect of platelet-activating factor(PAF) on proliferation of cultured rat airway smooth muscle cells(ASMCs).METHODS: The cells were divided into control group and PAF group. The cells in PAF group were subdivided into four small groups by concentrations of PAF 10 -6 , 10 -7 , 10 -8 , 10 -9 mol?L -1 , MTT assay was used not only to investigate the effects of PAF on proliferation of ASMC but also to confirm the optimal concentration. Flow cytometry and immuneohistochemistry for proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) were also used to analyse its function on proliferation of ASMC.RESULTS: PAF (10 -6 -10 -9 mol?L -1 ) stimulated the cell proliferation and 10 -7 mol?L -1 PAF reached the maximal effect. The cell percentage of the ASMCs of 107 mol?L -1 PAF subgroup at G_ 0/1 phase (68.67%) was much lower than that of control group (85.57%, P

Objective To observe the growth situation of Blastocystis hominis in vitro and select the optimal method for culti?vation of B. hominis in different media. Methods Ten positive stools with B. hominis were inoculated in three different media for cultivating,namely 1640,Jone’s medium and vitro medium. And the stools with good growth status and high quantities of B. hominis were chosen to inoculate in the three media with equal amount after subcultivation,and the number of B. hominis was counted every 24 h for ten days,and the morphological changes and growth status were also observed. Results The densities of B. hominis in the 1640 and Jone’s medium were higher than that in the vitro medium 48 h after the inoculation. The same stool sample was inoculated to the three different media and observed for ten days,and the results indicated that the growth of B. homi?nis presented regular changes in the three media,the growth peaks were on the third,sixth and ninth day post inoculation;and the density of B. hominis was the highest in the Jone’s medium. The morphology of B. hominis was the clearest and most dynamic in the vitro medium,while various reproductive forms were observed in the Jone’s medium. Conclusion Jone’s medium is suitable for the growth of B. hominis and can be the first choice for the cultivation of B. hominis in vitro,and vitro medium is the best medium for observing the growth situation of B. hominis.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the therapeutic effect of salvia miltiorrhiza and prednisolone on patients with oral submucous fibrosis (OSF).
METHODS:
A total of 60 medium-term OSF patients and 60 advanced stage OSF patients were randomly divided into the first group (treated with both salvia miltiorrhiza and prednisolone) and the second group (treated with prednisolone alone). The clinical effect was compared between each group after 3-month treatment.
RESULTS:
Difference was found in the lesion area of the medium-term cases and the advanced stage cases of the first group before the treatment [(10.37+/-3.40) cm2, (19.60+/-3.27) cm2] and after the treatment [(5.90+/-4.10) cm2, (16.33+/-4.02) cm2] (P<0.05). Significant difference was found in the mouth opening before the treatment [(3.41+/-0.77) cm, (1.98+/-0.39) cm] and after the treatment [(3.87+/-0.67) cm, (2.26+/-0.46) cm] (P<0.05) in the first group. There was significant difference in the lesion area and mouth opening of the medium-term cases of the second group before the treatment [(10.87+/-3.18) cm2, (3.57+/-0.75) cm] and after the treatment [(6.70+/-3.75) cm2, (3.97+/-0.69) cm] (P<0.05). No difference in the lesion area and mouth opening of the advanced stage cases of the second group was found (P>0.05). There was difference in the therapeutic efficacy between the first group (70%) and the second group (16.67%) of the advanced stage cases (P<0.05), but not in the clinical effect between the 2 groups of the medium-term cases (P>0.05). The side effect of prednisolone could be reduced while used together with salvia miltiorrhiza.
CONCLUSION
There is obvious advantage in treating OSF by the combination of salvia miltiorrhiza and prednisolone.
