Edema, as one of common clinical diseases, could be treated by taking medicines and adopting external therapies with traditional Chinese medicines (TCM). In recent years, there have been many clinical and basic studies concerning external therapies with TCM on edema Data showed that the external therapies are mostly composed of such purgating drugs as Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Natrii Sulfas and Pharbitidis Semen, heat-clearing drug such as Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex and resuscitation-inducing drug such as Borneolum Syntheticum. The study showed that ingredients of external therapies did not pass through hilum and hepatic system, and thus avoided the first pass effect of livers. They enabled effective components of drugs to be rapidly absorbed through pores and skins, strengthened the effect against edema, shortened the treatment course, decreased side effects, and were convenient and inexpensive. External therapies with TCM could play unique advantages in inhibiting edema in the future clinical studies.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effects of sinomenine on T-helper cell type 1-mediated experimental colitis in-duced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) in mice. Methods:Balb/c mice were divided into five groups:ethanol control group, TNBS model group, and sinomenine treatment groups (50, 100 and 200 mg·kg-1 ) with 10 ones in each. Colitis was induced by colonic instillation of TNBS dissolved in 0. 1 ml of 50% ethanol. Seven days after the colonic instillation of TNBS, sinomenine was given by gastric gavage once daily for 21 days. The mice were sacrificed on the 28th day, the injury degree of colonic mucosa was ob-served, the colon myeloperoxidase ( MPO) activity was determined, and the levels of inflammatory cytokines ( TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-23) were determined by ELISA. Results:Compared with those in TNBS model group, the body mass, gross injury score and histologi-cal findings in sinomenine groups at medium dose and high dose were significantly improved (P<0. 05), the activity of MPO signifi-cantly decreased (P<0. 05), and the protein levels of TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-23 in colonic mucosa were lower than those in TNBS group (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Sinomenine has notable therapeutic effect on TNBS-induced chronic colitis in mice, and the mecha-nism is related to the inhibition of Th1 cytokines by sinomenine.

Objective To study the effects of exogenous double-stranded DNA antigen on the immunophenotypic changes of dendritic cells (DCs) derived from stem cells in mouse bone marrow. Methods LinCD117 (c-kit)+ hemopoietic stem cells were obtained from the bone marrow of C57 mice by magnetic affinity cell sorting. Some cytokines, including granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, interleukin-4, tumor necrosis factor-α and so on, were used to enhance the proliferation or differentiation of stem cells to obtain mature, semimature and immature DCs. The double stranded DNA of kinetoplast (kDNA) was isolated from Trypanosoma equiperdum, and added to the culture media to pulse DCs. The immunophenotypic and morphologic features of DCs were analyzed by using flow cytometry and laser confocal microscopy respectively. Results The expression rates of CD117 and CD11c in DCs showed no significant changes after kDNA pulse compared with those before the pulse. In unpulsed immature, semi-mature and mature DCs, the expression rate was 11.42% ± 2.56%, 27.08% ± 5.29% and 44.63% ± 10.37% for MHC Ⅱ, 8.54% ± 2.01%, 31.35% ± 6.40% and52.96% ± 10.34% for CD80, 10.22% ± 3.47%, 32.15% ± 6.83% and 64.72% ± 9.68% for CD86, respectively.After pulse with the kDNA antigen, the expression rate increased by 15.63%, 9.66% and 4.12% (t = 6.21,4.35, 2.82, P < 0.05) for MHC Ⅱ, by 9.63%, 7.09% and 4.09% for CD80, by 13.16%, 9.75% and 3.10% for CD86, respectively in immature, semi-mature and mature DCs, respectively. The increase of expression rate of these membrane antigens in decreasing order was observed in immature DCs, semi-mature DCs and mature DCs. Conclusions The exogenous DNA antigen could enhance the maturation of bone marrow-derived DCs,likely by upregulating the expression of certain immunophenotypic membrane proteins, and the lower the maturity degree, the more liable the DCs to be affected by the antigen.

mRNA in ARE and GW9662 group were 2.276 ±0.534 and 0.362 ±0.026,respectively.Compared with control group,PPARγmRNA level in both of ARE and GW9662 group reached statistical significance (t =4.785,P =0.001 ;t =2.395,P =0.044).PPARγprotein expression in ARE group,GW9662 +ARE group and control group were 27 688.33 ±3 593.06,21 816.00 ±1 644.07,17 716.33 ±2 273.95,respectively,which was higher in ARE group than that in control and GW+ARE group (t =5.159,P =0.001 ;t =3.038,P =0.016). NF-κB p65 mRNA expression in GW9662 +ARE group was 0.346 ±0.149,which in ARE group and GW9662 group were 0.392 ±0.1 87 and 1 .720 ±0.338,respec-tively.The differences of NF-κB p65 mRNA expression level between ARE,and control or GW9662 group were statistically significant (t =3.592,P =0.007;t =7.851 ,P =0.000).While,the differences of Caspase-3 mRNA and protein expression levels among the four groups were not statistically significant (F =1 .1 81 ,P =0.376;F =0.647,P >0.05).Conclusion ARE may restrain NF-κB through up-regulating PPARγto inhibit the proliferation and invasive potential of LLC in vitro, which suggests that PPAR-γmay be a novel therapeutic target for lung cancer.
