Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 1986;0(06):-
Histamine H 1R antagonists are mainly administered to treat the diseases of hypersensitivity reaction. And histamine H 2R antagonists are mainly administered to treat gastroenteric diseases. But in recent years administered simultaneously H 1R and H 2R antagonists can enhance their effects. Combination of H 1R and H 2R antagonists has good therapeutic effect on hypersensitivity reaction, cancers, asthma, etc, and can eliminate side effects.

Objectives To observe the expression of death receptor 6 (DR6) in neonatal rats with hypoxia-ischemia brain damage (HIBD). Methods HIBD was induced in day 7 rats. The expression of DR6 at 24 h, 72 h and 7 d after HIBD and the expression of Caspase-3 at 24 h were evaluated by immunostaining. The injury of neural cells was evaluated by cresyl violet at 7 d after HIBD. The cognitive function was evaluated by T-maze test at 60 d after HIBD. Results DR6 positive cells were the most abundant in the ipsilateral cortex at 24 h after HIBD, and decreased gradually at 72 h and 7 d after HIBD. There was signiifcant difference of the expression of DR6 among different time points in HIBD group (P<0.01). Compared with control group, DR6 positive cells were more abundant in the ipsilateral cortex at 24 h and 72 h after HIBD (P<0.01) and caspase-3 positive cells were more abundant in the ipsilateral cortex at 24 h after HIBD (P<0.05). The number of cortical neurons were decreased at 7 d after HIBD as compared with control group (P<0.05). The T-maze test showed there was decline of the cognition in HIBD group com-pared with control group (P<0.05). Conclusions The DR6 signaling pathway plays an important role in cerebral cortex injury which may lead to the subsequent neurofunctional deifcits in neonatal HIBD rats.

Codon usage bias is an important characteristic of genetic information transfer in organisms. Analysis of codon usage bias of different species is important for understanding the rules on genetic information transfer. The previous method for analysis of codon usage bias is mainly based on genomic data. However, this method is greatly limited, because the genome sequences of higher organisms are still not available up to now. In this study, we found that we could obtain the same optimal codons of Ganoderma lucidum (Curtis: Fr.) P. Karst based on its whole genomic data or large-scale transcriptomic data from its liquid-cultured hyphae, primordium and fruiting body, separately. This result indicated the feasibility to understand the codon usage bias based on the large-scale transcriptomic data. By calculating the proportion of rare codons of Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae in 26 terpene synthases (TS) of G. lucidum, we found that the rare codons of S. cerevisiae have a higher proportion in TS genes, while the rare codons of E. coli have relatively lower, suggesting that the TS genes of G. lucidum are possibly more difficult to be expressed in S. cerevisiae than in E. coli. Chemical synthesis of TS genes according to the yeast optimal codons will be an effective way to solve the problem on the mismatch of gene codon bias between the foreign genes and the host strain.

Objective To explore the effect of Yiqi-jianpi-jiedu recipe decoction containing serum on Oxaliplatin-induced HepG2 Human hepatoma cell survivin, caspase-3, caspase-9 expression. Methods The serum pharmacological method was used to prepare nourishing Qi and invigorating spleen decoction containing serum of rat. The HepG2 human hepatoma cells were divided into Chinese herb containing serum group, chemotherapy with Oxaliplatin (OXA) group and the combination group (medicine containing serum and OXA), and the blank group without drugs. Apply MTT assay, Western Blotting method and RT-PCR method to detect the cell inhibition rate and survivin, caspase-3, caspase-9 protein and gene expression changes. Results Compared with the blank group, the inhibition rate of HepG2 Human hepatoma cell was significantly higher in Chinese herb containing serum group, chemotherapy group and the combination group (P < 0.05). Compared with thechemotherapy group and Chinese herb containing serum group, the Survivin (0.151 ± 0.054 vs. 0.288 ± 0.089, 0.375 ± 0.063) and the expression of Survivin mRNA (0.205 ± 0.091 vs. 0.487 ± 0.073, 0.725 ± 0.092) of the conbination group downgraded significantly lower (P < 0.05 or P< 0.01). Compared with chemotherapy group and Chinese herb containing serum group, the caspase-3 (0.821 ± 0.079 vs. 0.634 ± 0.098, 0.487 ± 0.102), caspase-9 (0.901 ± 0.047 vs. 0.709 ± 0.054, 0.402 ± 0.012) expression, caspase-3 mRNA (1.928 ± 0.226 vs. 1.564 ± 0.195, 1.287 ± 0.312) and caspase-9 mRNA (2.063 ± 0.517 vs. 1.536 ± 0.084, 1.019 ± 0.182) expression of the conbination group upgraded significantly higher (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusions Nourishing-Qi and invigorating spleen decoction containing serum may affect Oxaliplatin-induced HepG2 apoptosis mechanism through increasing the suppression on Survivin and promoting the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 protein and genes. This research provided important experimental basis for clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine treating liver cancer.

OBJECTIVE:To standardize the clinical use of adjuvant therapy drugs. METHODS:To establish the clinical use management mode of adjuvant therapy drugs in our hospital and summarize the usage amount and irrational drug use of adjuvant therapy drugs before and after implementing the management,and the management effect was assessed. RESULTS:The manage-ment mode of adjuvant treatment drugs in our hospital included ensuring the directory for adjuvant therapy drugs,establishing the management system and ensuring its basic principles,then conducting drug use review with the ranking of drug dosages and mak-ing full use of evidence-based medical evidence,as well as developing principle of classification disposal for the irrational drug use (off-indications,overdose,ultra treatment) of adjuvant therapy drugs. After more than one year of management practice,the use of adjuvant therapy drugs in our hospital is increasingly standardized. The sales amount of adjuvant therapy drugs to all drugs was reduced from 20.90% before management(Aug. 2014-Jul. 2015)to 15.99%(reduced by 5%)after management(Aug. 2015-Jul. 2016). Compared with Aug. 2015,the sales amount of 48 varieties in the 93 adjuvant therapy drugs was dropped more than 15%in Aug. 2016,and irrational drug use decreased obviously. CONCLUSIONS:The established management mode of adjuvant thera-py drugs in our hospital has effectively improved clinical rational drug use and reduced medical costs.

Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) is a key element in the Ganoderma triterpenoid biosynthetic pathway. The catalytic reaction process for CYP450 requires NADPH / NADH for electron transfer. After searching the genome dataset of Ganoderma lucidum, the unique sequence encoding CYP450 and NADPH were discovered, separately. The open reading frames of GLCYP450 and GLNADPH were cloned separately using RT-PCR strategy from G lucidum. The appropriate restriction enzyme cutting sites were introduced at the 5' and 3' ends of gene sequence. The genes of GLCYP450 and GLNADPH were recombined into the yeast expression vector pESC-URA, leading to the formation of the yeast expression plasmid pESC-GLNADPH-GLCYP450. This study provides a foundation for researching Ganoderma triterpene biosynthesis using the approach of synthetic biology.

Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) is a single-stranded and positive-sense RNA, which has a single ORF (open reading frame), encoding a polyprotein precursor. Non-structural protein 3 (NS3) plays an important role in processing the polyprotein precursor and has become an important drug target of flavivirus. In this study, NS2BH-NS3 gene was amplified by PCR and subcloned to the prokaryotic expression plasmid, resulting pET30a-NS2BH-NS3. The fusion protein was expressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) in soluble form after induction by Isopropyl beta-D-1-Thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). The recombinant protein was purified by Ni-NTA affinity column. Then a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) method was used to determine enzymatic activity and the assay conditions were optimized. After screening 113 compounds, we found two compounds inhibiting the activity of NS2BH-NS3. This study provides a convenient and cost-effective method for screening of JEV NS3 protease inhibitor.
