In order to clarify material basis of effective parts of liangxue tongyu prescription, blood-heat and blood-stasis rat model induced by dry yeast was established. The changes of rectal temperature, blood viscosity and plasma viscosity were used to evaluate the cooling-blood and activating-blood effects of liangxue tongyu prescription and its parts. Compared with the model group, the extract from liangxue tongyu prescription, its volatile oil and n-butanol part could significantly reduce rectal temperature (P<0.01), and also reduce blood viscosity and plasma viscosity to various degrees (P<0.01 or P<0.05). So volatile oil and n-butanol part were primarily identified as effective parts of liangxue tongyu prescription. By using GC-MS with normalization method of area to analyze volatile oil of liangxue tongyu prescription, 70 compounds were identified, accounting for about 92.54%, mainly as β-asarone, paeonol, α-asarone and shyobunone. 42 compounds such as peony glycosides, tannins, and iridoid glycosides were identified by HPLC-MS techniques and standard comparison. The study determined the effective parts of liangxue tongyu prescription and clarified the chemical composition providing the foundation for further studies on material basis of liangxue tongyu prescription.

Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is synthesized and secreted by the anterior pituitary, which binds to its receptors expressed on the membrane of Sertoli cells in the testis to bring about spermatogenesis. With the development of DNA sequencing technology, FSH SNPs rs10835638 and FSHR SNPs rs6165, rs6166, and rs1394205 were detected, which might directly affect the expression of FSH and activity of FSHR, resulting in male spermatogenic dysfunction. This review focuses on the relationship of FSH and FSHR gene polymorphisms with male infertility.

Background The incidence and progression of glaucomatous optic neuropathy is related to a disturbance of the retrobulbar hemodynamics.Compound anisodine is clinically applied for the treatment of ischemic ocular diseases.Objective To evaluate the effects of compound anisodine injection on the ocular blood flow of glaucoma patients.Methods Twenty-one patients with primary glaucoma were divided into the treatment group and the control group.The eyes of each patient in the treatment group were selected further into the treatment eye group (11 eyes with greater mean deviation [MD]) or the opposite eye group(11 eyes with lesser MD).One of the eyes of each patient in the control group with MD value were selected as control eyes (10 eyes).The treatment eye group received compound anisodine on the para-superficial temporal artery via subcutaneous injection once a day for 2 treatment periods (each period equals 14 days,with 7 days intermittent between periods,totally 35 days) in addition to routine treatment.The retrobulbar blood flow,optic disc data,refraction error,visual field and intraocular pressure were measured in 3 time points:Before treatment period (baseline test),one day after treatment period (the 1st postreatment test) and 35 days after treatment period (the 2nd posttreatment test).Results Compared with the control group,the peak systolic velocity (PSV) and end diastolic velocity (EDV) of short posterior ciliary artery (SPCA) of the treatment eye group were relatively increased significantly in the 1st posttreatment test (P =0.017,0.028),the PSV of SPCA of the opposite eye group was relatively increased significantly in the 1 st posttreatment test (P =0.049),the EDV of central retinal artery (CRA) of the opposite eye group was relatively increased significantly in the 2nd posttreatment test (P =0.035).In contrast to the treatment eye group,the inferior quadrant RNFL thickness of the optic disc decreased significantly in the 2nd posttreatment test in the control group (P =0.009),the 6 o'clock RNFL thicknesses of the optic disc decreased significantly in the 1 st posttreatment test in the control group (P =0.014),and the 6 o'clock and 7 o'clock RNFL thicknesses of the optic disc decreased significantly in the 2nd posttreatment test in the control group (P =0.029,0.011).Conclusions The application of compound anisodine for the treatment of primary glaucoma relatively increases the PSV and EDV of SPCA.

Selection and affinities of Cd binding peptides were assayed by phage random dodecapeptide library and affinity chromatography. Two Cd binding peptides were obtained, it was found that the affinities of Cu~ 2+ ,Co~ 2+ ,Zn~ 2+ ,Ni~ 2+ for Cd binding peptides were higher than that of Cd~ 2+ and Cr~ 2+ after detection of the amplified Cd binding peptides displayed phages to different heavy metal-charged resins; the detoxification of E.coli to Ni~ 2+ and Cd~ 2+ was enhanced when infected by Cd binding peptide displayed phages as compared with those of the control. The interaction of Cd binding peptide displayed phages with heavy metals charged resins was also observed under microscope. The work would be of great value and consequences for the study of interaction between heavy metals and proteins(peptides), as well as thedetoxification and bioremediation of heavy metals.

Objective:To investigate the expression of wild type estrogen receptor(wER)and the ex-on-5 deleted ER(variant ER,vER)in human hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)samples,and thereafteranalyze the possibility of HCC treatment by endocrine therapy.Methods:The mRNA expressions of wERand vER were analysed from 28 cases of HCC by RT-PCR.The expression of ER at the protein level wasdetected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).Results:IHC results showed that 39.3% of the HCC speci-mens expressed ER.The mRNA of wER was detected in 89.3%(25/28)of the HCC specimens whilethat of vER was detected in 96.4%(27/28).Twenty four out of 28 HCC cases(85.7%)expressedboth wER and vER.One out of 28 patients(3.5%)expressed only wER whereas 3 patients out of 28(10.7%)expressed vER only.Conclusion:Ninety six percent(27/28)of the HCC patients expressedvER,which suggests that the expression of vER is an important event in the development of HCC.
