Objective To observe the efficacy and toxicity of low dose thalidomide combined with VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone in treatment on patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Methods 42 patients with MM were diagnosed in our hospital.The VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone was vincristine 0.4 mg/d, adramycin 10 mg/d and dexamethasone 40 mg/d for 4 days. At the same time, thalidomide is given 150-200 mg/d. Results The overall response rate (ORR) is 80.95%. Before and after treatment, all the detection indicators in MM patients were statistically different (P<0.001). There is small adverse reactions. Conclusion Low dose thalidomide combined with VAD regimen contained one-week dexamethasone in treatment of MM has more merits such as less side effects, good tolerance, convenient administration and significant curative effects, so it should be recommended in clinical works.

Five compounds (tenuifoliside C, tenuifoliside D, telephiose A, telephiose C and polygalaxanthone III) from polygala tenuifolia wild were incubated together with CYP probe substrate in human liver microsomes to investigate the inhibitory effect towards CYP450 enzyme. Phenacetin (CYP1A2), coumarin (CYP2A6), paclitaxel (CYP2C8), diclofenac (CYP2C9), S-mepheriytoin (CYP2C19), dextromethorphan (CYP2D6), chlorzoxazone (CYP2E1), midazolam (CYP3A) were selected as the isoforfn specific substrate. And the formation of paracetamol, 7-hydroxycoumarin, 6alpha-hydroxy paclitaxel, 4'-hydroxydiclofenac, dextrorphan, 6-hydroxychlorzoxazone, 1'-hydroxymidazolam, 4'-hydroxymephenytoin were detected respectively to measure the effect towards CYP450 by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). The result shows that five compounds from polygala tenuifolia willd significantly inhibit chlorzoxazone 6-hydroxylation catalyzed by CYP2E1, while showed no effect towards CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A. And IC50 value was 38.73, 54.14, 61.77, 62.22, 50.56 micromol x L(-1), respectively.

Objective To observe the mitochondrial damage associated with protein-energy wasting of skeletal muscle in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) model of Goto-Kakizaki(GK) rats and evaluate the effects of low-protein diet supplemented with α-keto acids on muscle wasting.Methods Forty-five male 24-week-age GK rats were randomly divided into three groups,normal protein diet group (NPD),low-protein diet group (LPD) and LPD +or-keto group (Keto).Fifteen gender and age matched Wistar rats were served as control group (CTL).The living condition of GK rats was observed and the weight was measured once a week.Urine albumin,serum glucose,creatinine and urea nitrogen were measured at 24,32,40,48 week age.Soleus muscle was observed to calculate the muscle size and the percentage of Ⅰ and Ⅱ type muscle fiber with software after SDH and NADH staining at 48-week-age.Tissue ultrastructure was observed under the transmission electron microscopy.The activity of citrate synthase was detected by spectrophotometer.Expression of mitochondrial DNA was examined by Q-PCR.Results Compared with the CTL group,NPD,LPD and Keto groups had lower body weight,higher urine albumin,higher serum creatinine and urea nitrogen (P < 0.05).The crosssectional area of muscle fibers was larger in CTL group.Compared with CTL group,the muscle fiber was partly broken,the mitochondrial morphology was obviously changed,the percentage of type Ⅱmuscle fiber was increased significantly (P < 0.05),and the activity of citrate synthase and the number of mitochondrial DNA were decreased significantly in NPD,LPD and Keto groups (P < 0.05).In Keto group,muscle wasting was improved compared with NPD and LPD group (P < 0.05),the crosssectional area of soleus muscle increased and the percentage of type Ⅱ muscle fiber decreased,levels of urine albumin,semm creatinine and urea nitrogen decreased (P < 0.05).Under transmission electron microscopy,the muscle fiber of keto group was intact and mitochondiral morphology was close to that of CTL group.The activity of citrate synthase and number of mitochondiral DNA were higher as compared to CTL group (P < 0.05).There were no significant differences between NPD and LPD group.Conclusions In DKD condition,protein degradation in the skeletal muscle is accelerated,mitochondrion is swelling,the number of mitochondrial DNA is decreased and mitochondrial function is impaired.Low-protein diet supplemented with α-keto acids can improve mitochondrial damage and muscle wasting induced by DKD.

Objective To investigate the effect of Curcumin on rats with severe acute pancreatitis associated renal injury and explore the possible mechanisms.Methods A total of 72 rats were randomLy divided into sham-operated group(S group, n =24), severe acute panceratitis with renal injury group(M group, n =24) ,Curcumin-treated group(Cur group,n=24).The S and M groups were given 1.5 ml saline through intragastric administration 3 hours before operation,while the Cur group was fed with same amount of Curcumin diluent(200 mg/kg).The pancreas and pancreatic tail-segment was dissociated and the head of pancreas was occlused in rats to form the model,blood vessel forceps was loosed after 3 hours.All the rats were sacrificed at 12 h,24 h, 36 h and 48 h after modeling.The level of ascites, serum amylase, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen were detected and the pathological chang of pancreas was observed under light microscope.Take the right kidney for Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) determination and the expression of hypoxia inducible factor-1αmRNA in the right kidney was detected with realtime polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Compared with Cur group, the level of ascites, serum amylase, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen in M group were significantly increased, but the activity of SOD, the express of hypoxia inducible factor-1αmRNA had a significant decline (P<0.05).The tissue damage of pancreas and the kidneys became more serious.But a better performance was to be found in the function of the Cur group's kidney and pancreas, and the the difference was statistical significance (P <0.05).Conclusion Curcumin has a good protective effect on severe acute pancreatitis associated renal injury.It may be through up-regulation expression of HIF-1α mRNA and increase the activity of superoxidase dismutase, then reduce the cell apoptosis and necrosis of the kidney, improve the ability of the kidney to tolerate hypoxia.

OBJECTIVEEffects of ginsenoside Rb1, Rg1 and Re on neurotrophic factor signal transduction pathway using liposome-mediated transfection of eukaryotic cells approach.
METHODThe injury model was established by treating SH-SY5Y cells with 0.6 mmol x L(-1) of corticosterone (CORT) by 24 h. SH-SY5Y cell were pretreated with CORT for 30 min followed by co-treated with 120,60 and 20 micromol x L(-1) of Rb1, 120, 80 and 40 micromol x L(-1) of Rg1 and 120, 80 and 40 micromol x L(-1) of Re for 24 h. Cells viability was determined by Cell Counting Kit (CCK) assay. CREB expressing Luciferase reporter gene was constructed and transfected with plasmid containing hRaf, hcAMP, hAkt, hCaMK gene into human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells using liposornal transfection reagent lipofection 2000. The expression of CREB before and after it addion of Rb1, Rg1 and Re was examined by Luc assay system and Western blotting.
RESULTCompared with normal control group, CORT significantly decreased the viability of SH-SY5Y cells to 67.21% (P < 0.01). CCK results show that Rb1 (60 micromol x L(-1)), Rg1 (80 micromol x L(-1)) and Re (80 micromol x L(-1)) on SH-SY5Y cells have significant protective effect (P < 0.01). Lucassay and Western blotting results show that the gene and protein levels of CREB increased significantly through the pathway of Raf and Akt with Rb1 and Rg1 (P < 0.01), Re can increase significantly the gene and protein levels of CREB through the pathway of Raf and CaMK II.
CONCLUSIONRb1, Rg1 and Re protects SH-SY5Y cells from CORT-induced damage and the neuroprotective mechanism may be associated with the Raf-CREB, Akt-CREB and CaMK II -CREB pathways.
