Professor Luo Lingjie is a national famous old doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). He has a set of effective thoughts and methods on health maintenance. The core of the thought is Tiao-Xin, that is to say the emotion regulation is the key to health. The idea and method include three aspects, which include emotion regulation, diet regimen and exercise regimen. The emotion regulation is divided into clean ears, optimistic mood, learn to adapt, maintain psychological balance, and comply with nature. Diet regimen is fell into pay attention to the health food, regular diet, dietotherapy as primary and followed by drug, comply with the four seasons, reasonable to choose the food. There are four principles of exercise regimen, which are the choice of sports according to individual person with the aim to relax the body, move to raise the shape which should be combined with static to repose, proceed in an orderly way and persevere it step by step. The idea and method can also be used for daily personal health and clinical nursing for health maintenance. It is important that the physical and spiritual needs be consistent with long-term practice.

Objective:To establish a quality control method for Shuangshengen capsules ( Salvia miltiorrhiza, Panax ginseng and Radix pueraria) . Methods:TLC was performed to identify Salvia miltiorrhiza, Panax ginseng and Radix pueraria. HPLC was used to determine the contents of puerarin and ginsenoside Rg1 . Results:The spots obtained from the test solutions had the same color as the reference solution at the same position. The spots on the TLC plates were clear without any interference. The calibration curve was line-ar within the range of 14. 42-115. 36 ng for puerarin, and the average recovery was 99. 94%(RSD=0. 13%, n=5). The calibration curve was linear within the range of 0. 1-0. 8 μg for ginsenoside Rg1, and the average recovery was 99. 85%(RSD=0. 42%,n=5). Conclusion:The method is reliable, simple and reproducible, and suitable for the quality control of Shuangshengen capsules.

AIM:To investigate the influence and mechanisms of human pancreatic cancer tumor microenvironments on T-cell immunoglobulin mucin-3 (TIM-3) expression and function of dendritic cells (DCs).METHODS:Tumor-infiltrating dendritic cells (TIDC) and para-carcinoma tissue DCs were isolated by Ficoll-Hypaque density centrifugation from trypsinized pancreatic carcinoma tissues, and the peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from pancre-atic cancer patients or healthy people.The expression of TIM-3 on DCs was detected by flow cytometry.DCs isolated from healthy people peripheral blood mononuclear cells were induced by rhGM-CSF and IL-4.The expression of TIM-3 in the DCs treated with the culture supernatants of Capan-2, SW1990 and Panc-1 pancreatic cancer cells or human skin fibroblast (Hs27) cells for 48 h, and in the DCs treated with supernatants of Capan-2 cells, anti-VEGF-R2, anti-IL-10 and EP2 re-ceptor blocking peptide were evaluated by flow cytometry.The releases of IFN-βand IL-12 in the culture supernatants of DCs pretreated with monoclonal antibody ( mAb) to TIM-3 or DNase+RNase, followed by stimulation with apoptotic Ca-pan-2 cells, were detected by ELISA.RESULTS:DCs in tumor microenvironments had higher expression of TIM-3 than the DCs from para-carcinoma tissues and pancreatic cancer patient or healthy people peripheral blood ( P<0.01 ) .TIM-3 expression in the DCs treated with the culture supernatants of Capan-2, SW1990 and Panc-1 pancreatic cancer cells for 48 h was much higher than that in Hs27 cells (P<0.05).Treatment with a combination of anti-VEGF-R2, anti-IL-10 and EP2 receptor blocking peptide largely diminished the upregulation of TIM-3 on the DCs mediated by Capan-2 cell superna-tants (P<0.05).The concentrations of IFN-βand IL-12 in the DCs with high expression level of TIM-3 were lower than those in the DCs with low TIM-3 expression level.Treatment with mAb to TIM-3 resulted in much more IFN-βand IL-12 releases (P<0.01), but DNase+RNase made this effect disappear.CONCLUSION:TIM-3 serves as a negative regula-tor of DCs innate immune responses in the pancreatic cancer microenvironments.The secretion of soluble factors to tumor microenvironment by pancreatic cancer cells, including IL-10, VEGF and PGE2 , may contribute to the regulation of TIM-3 expression.
