AIM: To investigate the effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate(EGCG) on 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion(MPP+)-induced apoptosis in rat pheochromocytoma(PC12) cells and to explore the relationships between its roles of anti-oxidation,intracellular calcium homeostasis and anti-apoptosis.METHODS: Rat PC12 cells were pretreated with vehicle control or EGCG(10,50,and 100 ?mol/L) for 30 min,then cultured with MPP+(900 ?mol/L) for 24 h.The cell viability and apoptosis were monitored by MTT assay and flow cytometry using Annexin V and PI.The activity of intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS),contents of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA),cytoplasmic Ca2+ density and apoptotic morphology of mitochondria were examined by fluorescent plate-based assays,confocal microscope,and transmission electron microscope,respectively.RESULTS: MPP+ impaired the PC12 cells in a concentration-dependent pattern and induced apoptosis of the cells(31% versus control).Compared with the control,the cells pretreated with EGCG showed markedly higher rate of viability and lower apoptosis.Meanwhile,EGCG pretreatment significantly increased the SOD activity and decreased the levels of MDA and ROS.Interestingly,EGCG also decreased the concentration of cytoplasmic Ca2+ and improved the morphology of mitochondria.CONCLUSION: EGCG exhibits inhibitory effects on MPP+-induced apoptosis in rat PC12 cells,which is possibly associated with increasing the cell ability of anti-oxidation and decreasing the concentration of cytoplasmic Ca2+.

Objective To investigate the early diagnostic value and prognostic significance of serum presepsin in patients with sepsis.Methods A prospective observational study of 80 patients from ICU was carried out between January 2014 and June 2015.According to sepsis criteria,the cases were divided into sepsis group (n =50)and noninfectious systemic inflammation syndrome group (SIRS group,n =30), and another 25 healthy volunteers were collected as control group.Meanwhile,sepsis group was further divided into survival and death subgroups according to 28-day mortality.The dynamic changes of serum presepsin,procalcitonin (PCT),soluble myeloid cells expressing triggering receptor-1 (sTREM-1 ),C-reactive protein (CRP),interleukin 6 (IL-6)were monitored on the 1st,3rd and 7th day after admission. Results (1)The serum presepsin level of sepsis group was higher than SIRS group and control group on the 1st day,and the difference was statistically significant [912.0 (563.5,1514.8)pg/mL vs.462.0 (334.0,556.0)pg/mL vs.120.0 (70.2,320.1)pg/mL,P <0.05];(2)The area under the ROC curve (AUC)of presepsin for the sepsis diagnosis was greater than PCT,sTREM-1,CRP,IL-6.As cut-off point set at 672.5 pg/mL,presepsin measurements showed a sensitivity of 80%,specificity of 96.7%, combination of presepsin,PCT and sTREM-1 could offer better diagnostic confirmation;(3)The level of serum presepsin,PCT and sTREM-1 in death group were higher than those in survival group.The levels of serum presepsin,PCT,sTREM-1 and IL-6 in survival group gradually decreased to normal level following the therapy,but the levels of above markers in death group didn’t decrease significantly;(4)The AUC of presepsin in prognosis of sepsis prediction was greater than that of PCT,sTREM-1,and combination of the above three markers could offer better prognostic value.Conclusions Serum presepsin provided superior diagnostic and prognostic accuracy to PCT and sTREM-1,and the combination of presepsin,PCT and sTREM-1 can offer the reliable guide for sepsis diagnosis and death risk prediction.

OBJECTIVETo observe the clinical effect of low-dose once-daily tadalafil combined with Shuganyiyang Capsules in the treatment of mild-to-moderate erectile dysfunction (ED).
METHODSNinety patients with mild-to-moderate ED were equally randomized to groups A, B and C to receive Shuganyiyang Capsules, tadalafil, and tadalafil + Shuganyiyang Capsules, respectively. The scores of the patients on IIEF-5 and SF-PAIRS (15-Item Short Form of Psychological Interpersonal Relationship Scales) were recorded before and at 1 and 3 months after treatment.
RESULTSThe IIEF-5 scores of groups A, B and C were 10.13 +/- 1.55, 11.00 + 1.60 and 10.73 +/- 1.91 before treatment, and 13.77 +/- 2.11, 17.77 +/- 2.13 and 17.17 +/- 3.84 at 1 month after treatment, significantly higher in B and C than in A (P <0. 001) , but with no remarkable difference between B and C (P =0. 411). At 3 months after treatment, the IIEF-5 scores were 15.77 +/- 2.05, 18.07 +/- 2.24 and 19.37 +/- 3.76 in the three groups, dramatically higher in B and C than in A (P <0.001) as well as in C than in B (P<0.05). The scores on sexual self-confidence, sexual spontaneity and time concerns in SF-PAIRS were 3.90 +/-0.80, 8.67 +/- 1.94 and 14.43 +/- 1.92 before medication, 5.83 +/- 1.02, 9.90 +/- 1.75 and 11.17 +/- 1.68 at 1 month and 6.73 +/- 0.98, 11.07 +/- 2.08 and 10.67 +/-1.60 at 3 months after medication in group A; 4.17 +/- 0.87, 9.37 +/-1.43 and 14.47 +/-1.57 before medication, 6.47 +/-0.78, 10.83 +/- 2.18 and 10.20 +/-1.56 at 1 month and 6.83 +/-0.91, 11.30 +/- 1.88 and 9.47 +/- 1.57 at 3 months in group B; and 4.23 +/-0. 94, 9.50 +/- 1.89 and 14.67 +/- 2.91 before medication, 8.03 +/- 1.67, 13.43 +/-1.10 and 9.70 +/-1.21 at 1 month and 8.93 +/- 1.78, 14.70 +/- 1.26 and 8. 87 +/- 0. 97 at 3 months in group C. Compared with the baseline, the SF-PAIRS scores of the three groups were all significantly improved after treatment (P <0. 05) , and markedly higher in C than in the other two groups (P <0.05).
CONCLUSIONLow-dose once-daily tadalafil combined with Shuganyiyang Capsules is obviously effective in the treatment of mild-to-moderate ED, which not only improves the patients'erectile function, sexual self-confidence and sexual spontaneity, but also reduces their time concerns.
