China Pharmacy 2015;(25):3507-3509
OBJECTIVE:To study anti-arrhythmic effects of Lianshen lyuping dripping pills in rats,mice,guinea pigs. METH-ODS:48 SD rats were randomized into a normal control (isometric normal saline) group,a model (isometric normal saline) group,a propafenone (positive control,270 mg/kg) group and Lianshen lyuping dripping pills high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose(210,140,70 mg/kg)groups. The rats’tails were given the drugs iv at a time,10 min later,aconitine(10 mg/L,3 μg/min) iv. The doses of aconitine were recorded when ventricular premature beat(VP),ventricular tachycardia(VT)and ventricular fibril-lation(VF)developed in ECG. 48 guinea pigs were grouped and given drugs as above and 10 min later,were given uabain iv(1 mg/L,1 μg/min). The doses of uabain were recorded when VP,VT and VF developed in ECG. 120 KM mice were grouped and given drugs ip at a dose as above at a time,30 min later,were placed in the beaker containing 4 ml chloroform. When respiratory arrest occurred,ventricular fibrillation rate of mice were calculate.120 Wistar rats were grouped and given drugs at a dose as above,following typical arrhythmia reaction,given 0.8% BaCl2 (0.25 ml/kg) iv and sublingually at a time;48 Wistar rats were grouped and given drugs at a dose as above and,following typical arrhythmia reaction, given 5%CaCl2(0.28 ml/kg)iv and sublin-gually at a time. Recovery of sinus arrhythmia rate of rats were determined.48 SD rats were grouped and given drugs at a dose as above,after the administration ig once daily for 7 consecutive days,the rat models of myocardial ischemia reperfusion were estab-lished,and then VT,VF incidence rate and death were recorded. RESULTS:Compared to the normal control group,those in the model group were all abnormal in all indexes. Compared to the model group,those in Lianshen lyuping dripping pills high-dose, medium-dose and low-dose groups used more aconitine and uabain at the time of the occurrence of VP,VT and VF,had a lower occurrence rate of VF in mice and higher recovery of sinus arrhythmia rate in rats . The rats in Lianshen lyuping dripping pills high-dose and medium-dose groups which had myocardial ischemia reperfusion demonstrated a lower of VT,VF incidence rate and death rate. There were statistically significances (P<0.01 or P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:Lianshen lyuping dripping pills have an anti-arrhythmic effects in animals to some degree.

The trophoblast is fetal-derived and in direct contact with maternal tissues. The expression of the various types of MHC antigen in trophoblast cells is very important for successful pregnancy. Among nonclassical MHC class Ⅰ antigens, HLA-G is expressed specifically on cytotrophoblast cells and its expression protects the fetal from maternal immune attack. The expression of the distinct subtypes of classical MHC class Ⅰ antigen is different in different subtypes of trophoblast cells. The expression of MHC class Ⅱ antigen is inhibited in trophoblast during pregnancy. It is suggested that C Ⅱ TA plays an important role in regulation of MHC class Ⅱ gene expression.

Background:Hepatic veno-occlusive disease( HVOD) is a disease characterized by hepatomegaly,jaundice, ascites,weight gain and lack of effective treatment currently. Our prophase research showed that ligustrazine had therapeutic effect on Sedum aizoon induced HVOD in mice. Aims:To investigate the mechanism of therapeutic effect of ligustrazine on Sedum aizoon induced HVOD in mice. Methods:A total of 115 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups:mice in group A were intragastrically administrated with 30 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 Sedum aizoon to induce HVOD and served as model group;mice in group B were given 30 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 Sedum aizoon + 100 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ligustrazine and served as low dose ligustrazine intervention group;mice in group C were given 30 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 Sedum aizoon + 200 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ligustrazine and served as high dose ligustrazine intervention group;mice in group D were given 30 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 PBS and served as normal control group. After 30 days,all the mice were sacrificed. HE staining and Masson staining were performed for histological examination. The mRNA and protein expressions of tissue factor(TF),nuclear factor(NF)-κBp65 and early growth response factor( Egr)-1 in liver tissue were determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Results:HE staining and Masson staining histological examination showed that ligustrazine could obviously ameliorate the pathological injury of liver tissue in HVOD mice. Compared with group D,the mRNA and protein expressions of TF,NF-κBp65,Egr-1 were significantly increased in group A( P < 0. 05). After intervention with ligustrazine,the mRNA and protein expressions of TF,NF-κBp65,Egr-1 were significantly decreased( P < 0. 05), especially in group C,and no significant differences were found between group C and group D(P > 0. 05). Conclusions:Ligustrazine has therapeutic effect on HVOD,the possible mechanism is that ligustrazine could interrupt the activation of coagulation system by reducing the expression of TF via down regulating the expressions of NF-κBp65 and Egr-1,especially in high dose ligustrazine group.
