AIM: To study the effects of Bingcha Embolus on the proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle of astrocytes in vitro in terms of serum pharmacology. METHODS: The cerebral cortex astrocytes of neonatal Sprague-Dawley rats were cultivated in vitro, and the purified astrocytes were randomly devided into Bingcha Embolus groups (high dose, middle dose, low dose) and control group after being identified by means of immunocytochemical method. After the incubation of 48 h with sera, MTT was employed as a proper method to detect the proliferation of astrocytes. The ratio of apoptosis and different cell cycle phases were measured by Flow Cytometry. RESULTS: The results of MTT showed that the cell number of Bingcha Embolus groups (high dose, middle dose) were obviously fewer than that of the control group (P

Objective To observe the changes of peripheral blood CD27+B cells percentage in patients with HBV-related disease of different severity and the clinical significance.Methods 20 cases of chronic viral hepatitis B,23 cases of HBV-related liver cirrhosis,21 cases of liver cancer were selected,25 cases of healthy controls in the corresponding period who had the physical examination were set as the healthy control group.The peripheral blood in the healthy controls and the patients with HBV-related disease was collected.The cellular immune level changes and CD27+ B cells percentage was detected by flow cytometry,the humoral immunity was detected by immune transmission turbidty method:IgM,IgD.Results (1)Compared with the healthy control group,CD27+B cells percentage significantly decreased in the three groups of patients with HBV-related disease [(5.16 ± 0.36) ％ vs.(4.52 ± 0.22) ％,(2.24 ± 0.15) ％,(0.58 ± 0.02) ％,F =4.32,P ＜ 0.05],and the downward trend gradually obvious as the disease degree exacerbated.nnnnn(2)IgM,IgD in the three groups of HBV related disease patients rised obviously,and the increase range became more obvious as the disease degree exacerbation(F =3.29,5.23,P =0.02,0.03).Conclusion CD27+B cells has a close relationship with HBV-related disease,and rebuilding the body's immune defense system is great importance for evaluating prognosis and the clinical guidance in HBV-related disease.

OBJECTIVETo identify the correlation of the volume of residual urine (VRU) with the severity of bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) and detrusor contractility in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).

METHODSA total of 152 patients with clinically diagnosed BPH underwent ultrasonography for measurement of the prostate volume and RVU, free uroflowmetry, and urodynamic examination for the severity of BOO and detrusor contractility. Using the software SPSS20. 0, we analyzed the correlation between the ultrasonographic results and urodynamic parameters and compared the two sample means by the t-test.

RESULTSThe prostate volume was correlated positively with BOO severity (r = 0.432, P < 0.01) and detrusor contractility (r = 0.343 , P < 0.01) while Qmax negatively with BOO severity (r = 0.327, P < 0.01) but not significantly with detrusor contractility (r = 0.123, P > 0.05). VRU showed a significantly negative correlation with detrusor contractility when > 150 ml (r = -0.490, P < 0.01), even more significantly when > 300 ml (r = -0.717, P < 0.01), but exhibited no significant correlation with it when ≤ 150 ml (r = 0.041, P > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONVRU can somehow predict the detrusor function. For patients with VRU > 150 ml, especially for those with VRU > 300 ml, the detrusor function should be evaluated and urodynamic examination is recommended for exact assessment of BOO severity and detrusor contractility.

AIM: To investigate the protective effect of ulinastatin on rats with hemorrhagic shock. METHODS: A prospective, controlled animal study was designed. The model of hemorrhagic shock in rats was produced by Chaudry method. After 60 min, rats were resuscitated by transfusion of shed blood and normal saline, but a half of them were treated with ulinastatin. At different time points after reperfusion, the levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-?), interleukin-6 (IL-6), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum were detected. RESULTS: The levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and MDA significantly increased and the activity of SOD decreased. In the ulinastatin-treated groups, the blood pressure and heart rate were obviously improved; the levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and MDA significantly decreased and the activity of SOD had little change after hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion. CONCLUSION: Ulinastatin has a protection effect on rats with hemorrhagic shock by suppressing the production of inflammatory factors and reducing oxidative damage.

Objective:To differentiate human embryonic stem cells ( hESCs ) into keratinocytes ( K-hESCs) and analyse the expression characteristics of biomarkers of K-hESCs.Methods: The hESCs of line H9 were seeded on matrigel in mTeSR1 medium.The hESCs were directly differentiated into kerati-nocytes in epithelial differentiation medium with bone morphogenetic protein 4, retinoic acid and N2 sup-plement.The karyotype of K-hESCs was analyzed, comparing the gene expression differences of K-hESCs with human gingival epithelial cells (HGECs), human immortalized oral epithelial cells (HIOECs) and HaCaT by Real-time PCR.Molecular characteristics of the cell differentiation were observed throughout the process by immunocytochemical techniques.Results:H9-hESCs were successfully differentiated into the cells that exhibited characteristics of keratinocytes in epithelial differentiation medium.The karyotype of K-hESCs was 46, XX; and the keratinocyte gene p63 expression in K-hESCs was significantly lower than that in HaCaT ( P<0.05) , but there was no significant difference of p63 expression in K-hESCs, comparing with that in HGECs and HIOECs ( P >0.05 ) .Conclusion: H9-hESCs could be directly differentiated into K-hESCs.The gene expression of K-hESCs was similar to that of epithelial cells in the early stage of monolayer cells differentiation with high proliferative activity.

Objective To investigate the effect of rhubarb and ephedra prescription on the pulmonary function and blood pressure circadian rhythm in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Methods One hundred and enghty six patients with AECOPD admitted to Department of Integrated Medicine of Harrison International Peace Hospital from December 2013 to Auguest 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into a control group 90 cases and an experimental group 96 cases by random number talbe method. The patients in control group were treated with conventional therapy, while those in the experimental group were treated with the conventional therapy and additionally rhubarb and ephedra prescription (including rhubarb 6 g, ephedra 5 g, agrimony 15 g, licorice 15 g), taken orally 2 times a day, the therapeutic course in the two groups being 2 weeks. The diference of blood gas analysis, pulmonary function indexes, dyspnea score (mMRC) and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring were compared before and after treatment in the two groups.Results Compared with before treatment, the pH value, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), forced vital capacity (FVC), one second forced expiratory volume (FEV1), FEV1/FVC of the two groups were significantly increased after treatment, while the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and mMRC score were significantly lowered, and the changes in the experimental group were more significant than those in the control group [pH: 7.40±0.04 vs. 7.37±0.03, PaO2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 81.09±12.54 vs. 76.27±12.20, PaCO2 (mmHg): 48.01±8.27 vs. 51.91±8.37, FVC (L): 2.37±0.39 vs. 2.13±0.45, FEV1 (L): 2.08±0.38 vs. 1.87±0.41, FEV1/FVC: (69.01±12.04)% vs. (64.02±11.81)%, mMRC: 2.02±0.76 vs. 2.40±0.87, allP < 0.05 orP < 0.01]. Based on the percentage of blood pressure circadian value difference, the blood pressure circadian rhythm was divided into dipper type, non dipper type, super dipper type and anti dipper type, 24.2% patients were of dipper type and 75.8% patients were of non dipper, super dipper and anti dipper types. There was no significant difference in daytime systolic blood pressure (dSBP) between patients with super dipper and dipper types (P > 0.05),and the dSBP (mmHg) in patients with non dipper type was significantly higher than that in patients with dipper, super dipper and anti dipper types (131.55±5.08 vs. 117.78±4.47, 118.26±4.24, 113.37±3.97, allP < 0.05); the daytime diastolic blood pressure [dDBP (mmHg)] of anti dipper, non dipper type, dipper type, super dipper type increased in turn (respectively, 63.27±2.80, 70.24±3.82, 73.98±2.61, 82.96±4.52, allP < 0.05); the night SBP (nSBP) of anti dipper type was the highest (127.38±4.98) mmHg, and the nSBP of super dipper type was the lowest (89.07±3.81) mmHg; the night DBP (nDBP) of dipper type was lower than that of non dipper, anti dipper and super dipper types (mmHg: 63.57±1.37 vs. 68.86±2.12, 67.15±1.56, 67.89±2.04, allP < 0.05). After treatment, the proportion of patients with dipper type [66.7% (64/96) vs. 54.4% (49/90)], no dipper type [11.5% (11/96) vs. 8.9% (8/90)], and super dipper type [5.2% (5/96) vs. 2.2% (2/90)] in experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group, the proportion of patients with anti dipper type [16.7% (16/96) vs. 34.4% (31/90)] in experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group (allP< 0.05).Conclusion The Rhubarb and ephedra prescription can obviously improve the blood gas analysis indexes, pulmonary function and blood pressure rhythm in patients with AECOPD.

Objective To investigate the causes,diagnosis and treatment of small intestine bleeding.Methods Sixty-eight cases of small intestine bleeding from January 2000 to June 2010 were retrospectively analyzed.Among all cases,4 underwent routine hemostatic treatment under colonoscopy,40treated with open surgery and 24 patients with laparoscopic therapy.Among them,57 cases underwent part resection for some small intestine,completely laparoscopic resection of diverticula was performed in 7patients.Results Neoplasms was the leading cause of small intestine bleeding,accounting for 48.5％ (33/68)in these patients,followed by small intestine diverticulum accounted for 29.4％ ( 20/68 ),intestinal infective diseases accounted for 14.7％ ( 10/68 ) and vascular disease accounted for 7.4％ ( 5/68 ).Conclusion The clinical manifestations of small intestinal bleeding showed no specific signs.Neoplasm,intestine diverticulum and intestinal infective diseases are the most common causes of small intestinal bleeding.Small intestinal bleeding can be diagnosed in intraoperative colonoscopy.Surgery is the most effective treatment for small intestinal bleeding.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system due to the loss or death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra. Clinically, levodopa is the most effective and commonly used drug for PD treatment. However, long-term levodopa therapy is prone to motor complications and other side effects caused by excessive peripheral dopamine production, which has become an urgent problem to be solved in PD treatment. Dopamine receptor (DR) agonists are similar to dopamine. They can directly stimulate postsynaptic dopamine receptors, produce the same effect as dopamine, delay the application of levodopa as much as possible, and reduce complications caused by long-term use of levodopa. Therefore, screening effective dopamine receptor agonists has become a key issue in the study and treatment of PD. In order to establish a rapid, stable and reliable method for dopamine receptor agonist screening, this study used the human dopamine receptor 2 (DRD2) gene fused with a circular permuted EGFP (cpEGFP) to construct a recombinant gene, packaged with lentiviral vector, and the vector replaced the parted inner transmembrane domain of the third intracellular loop (ICL3) of genetically-encoded GPCR-activation based (GRAB) sensors. The fluorescence of GPCR-fused cpEGFP is regulated by conformational changes mediated by the interaction of dopamine receptor agonists with GPCRs without altering GPCR activity. The HEK293T cells were infected with viral vector, screened by puromycin to select highly expressed cells. Dopamine receptor agonists (including dopamine, bromocriptine mesylate, cabergoline, pramipexole) were used as positive drugs to explore the best screening and detection conditions, establishing a stable model to evaluate the dopamine receptor agonist. The results showed that the optimal filter for the dopamine receptor agonist in this study was the cell seeding count of 7×10⁴, and the effective concentration of the positive drug was 1-100 µmol·L^-1. In addition, pretreated with 10 µmol·L^-1 dopamine receptor antagonists (including chlorprothixol hydrochloride, domperidone, and sulpiride), the positive fluorescence signal of overexpressed DRD2-cpEGFP HEK293T cells could not be detected when exposed to 10 µmol·L^-1 dopamine receptor agonists, which proved that dopamine receptor antagonists could block the activity of dopamine receptor agonists, so they cannot activate dopamine receptor allosteric, indicating that the model has good specificity and can also be used for the screening and detection of new dopamine receptor antagonists. In summary, the study constructs a stable dopamine sensor detection system, which can effectively screen potential dopamine receptor agonists. The operation procedures are simple and rapid. And it can be used for a large-scale screening providing a fundamental methodology for drug development and PD treatment targeted on DRD2.
