Objective To compare the pharmacodynamic actions of Liuwei Dihuang Pills(LDP)prepared by four kinds of techniques on hemolysin contents in mice.Methods Sensitized by SRBC,immuno-inhibited mice models were induced by dexamethasone and cyclophosphane respectively.The hemolysin contents in the mice fed with LDP prepared by four kinds of techniques were observed to compare the pharmacodynamic actions.Results In experiment 1 that immuno-inhibited mice models were induced by cyclophosphane,the half hemolysin concentration(HC50)was low in the model group and LDP groups,especially in the LDP groups of techniqueⅡ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ.In experiment 2 that immuno-inhibited mice models were induced by dexamethasone,the difference of HC50 was insignificant between the blank control group,LDP groups of techniqueⅠand concentrated LDP group,the difference also being not significant in LDP groups of techniqueⅠat different dosages.Conclusion The dose of LDP can be reduced according to the experiment,however,the process technique of LDP needs to be improved.For this prescription is indicated for the treatment of yin-deficiency syndrome,dexamethasone can be used as the proposed drug for the establishment of the immuno-inhibited models.To confirm the reasonability of formula revolution,more parameters should be added to observe the pharmacodynamic actions.
3.Matrix Metalloproteinase and Cerebral Ischemic Injury
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2008;16(9):703-706
The studies of animal models have shown that the expression of matrix metalloprotease (MMP) is abnormal during cerebral ischemia/reperfusion,which indicating that it is associated with cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury,especially MMP-2,MMP-3 and MMP-9 play the important roles in the pathogenesis of acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Understanding of the roles and expressions of MMP,the factors affecting its expression,and the studies and application of the related antibodies in cerebral ischemic/reperfusion injury may provide a new alternative for the early diagnosis,prevention and treatment of cerebral infarction.

BACKGROUND:Eucommia ulmoides gum has good thermoplastics, liquidity, bondability and antimicrobial properties. However, the application of Eucommia ulmoides gum as a root canal filing material is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: To compare the different contents of gas phase nano-silica on mechanical performance of composite material taking the gutta-percha as the matrix, and observe the effect of the root canal filing. METHODS:Four kind of root canal filing materials were prepared through adding barium sulfate (20%), nano-hydroxyapatite (10%) and different contents of gutta-percha and gas phase nano-silica (40% and 15%, 45% and 20%, 50% and 25%, 55% and 30%). PureEucommia ulmoidesgum served as the blank control. The mechanical properties (hardness, tensile strength and rupture elongation rate) of those five materials were detected. Furthermore, four kinds of composite materials, pureEucommia ulmoidesgum and Gutta-Percha Pelets were filed into the fresh extracted premolar root canal by using Obtura II technology. The effect of root canal filing was observed under X-ray and scanning electron microscopy.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Along with the increase of the content of gas phase nano-silica, the hardness of Eucommia ulmoides gum composite material increased, tensile strength increased firstly and then decreased, and rupture elongation rate decreased. PureEucommia ulmoides gum was transmitted to the X-ray and no image of filing material was obtained. Four kinds of composite materials were resistant to X-ray, and images showed that al composite materials were equaly filed into the root canal, without cacuole, and were in contact with the root canal inner wal, showing good filing effect. Scanning electron microscopy showed that, fingerlike projections were the longest at the surface of pureEucommia ulmoides gum; as the content of gas phase nano-silica increased, fingerlike projection length reduced at the surface of composite materials.Eucommia ulmoides gum composite materials could be developed as a canal filing material under heat flow condition.

Objective To investigate the correlation between plasma N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and haemodynamics evaluated by right-heart catheterization in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH).Methods Fifty-three patients with CTEPH were retrospectively reviewed.All patients underwent right-heart catheterization to detect haemodynamics.The level of plasma NT-proBNP was measured by electrochemical luminescence.The indexes were analyzed.Results Pulmonary artery systolic pressure was (84.9 ± 21.6) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa).Pulmonary artery diastolic pressure was (31.1 ± 9.7) mmHg.Pulmonary artery pressure was (49.3 ± 13.4) mmHg.Pulmonary vascular resistance was (1 047.4 ± 86.1) dyn ·s/cm5.Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure was (8.16 ± 3.02) mmHg.Right cardiac output was (3.36 ± 1.42) ml.Right cardiac work was (1.97 ± 0.95) kg·m.The level of plasma NT-proBNP in CTEPH was (2 301.5 ± 1 787.3) ng/L.The level of plasma NT-proBNP in CTEPH had positive correlation with pulmonary vascular resistance (r =0.429,P =0.02),and had negative correlation with right cardiac output (r =-0.583,P< 0.01) and right cardiac work (r =-0.521,P < 0.01).The level of plasma NT-proBNP in CTEPH had no correlation with pulmonary artery systolic pressure,pulmonary artery diastolic pressure,pulmonary artery pressure,pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (P > 0.05).Conclusion The level of plasma NT-proBNP can be used as a better predictor for evaluating pulmonary vascular resistance and right cardiac function in CTEPH.
