1.Effect of bFGF on expression of endothelial cell integrin ?_1 subunits
Chinese Journal of Pathophysiology 1989;0(06):-
AIM: To study the effect of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) to the expression of integrin ? 1 subunit of endothelial cells. METHOD: The expression of integrin ? 1 subunit of endothelial cells was determined before and after bFGF treatment with Western Blot and immage analysis method.RESULTS: The mean gray value of immunostain by immage analysis method is 166.11?9.86 in the experimental group and 175.32?5.12 in the control group, suggested that bFGF may upregulate expression of integrin ? 1 subunits of endothelial cell. CONCLUSION: bFGF may play an important role in angiogenesis by way of inducing the overexpression of endothelial cell integrin ? 1 subunits.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of Beling Weitong granule combined with proton pump inhibitors in senile gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD).Methods:A total of 186 patients with GERD treated in the Second People′s Hospital of Dujiangyan from January 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively selected as the study subjects, of which 93 patients received proton pump inhibitor (prilosec) orally (control group) and 93 patients received Beling Weitong granule combined with prilosec orally (combination group). Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. Symptom score, reflux symptom-based questionnaire (GERDQ) score, clinical efficacy, serum levels of gastrin-17 (G-17), motilin (MTL), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) before and after treatment and safety were compared between the two groups.Results:After treatment, the symptom score and GERDQ score in the combination group were lower than those in the control group: (8.28 ± 2.57) scores vs. (15.68 ± 3.69) scores, (8.15 ± 2.23) scores vs. (10.50 ± 2.45) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The total effective rate in the combination group was higher than that in the control group: 96.77% (90/93) vs. 87.10% (81/93), there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 5.87, P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of serum G-17 and MTL in the combination group were higher than those in the control group, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α were lower than those in the control group: (7.48 ± 0.96) pmol/L vs. (6.55 ± 0.83) pmol/L, (206.96 ± 37.83) pg/L vs. (184.75 ± 35.69) pg/L, (9.38 ± 1.92) ng/L vs. (14.13 ± 2.04) ng/L, (9.41 ± 1.85) ng/L vs. (12.01 ± 2.11) ng/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Beling Weitong granule combined with proton pump inhibitor in the treatment of senile gastroesophageal reflux disease is effective, and it is safe.
