OBJECTIVE:To explore the spasmolytic effect of baked Radix Vladimiriae on in vitro intestinal muscle in rabbits. METHODS:Magnus in vitro intestinal muscle accumulative dose method was adopted to observe the dose-effect relationship of petroleum ether parts of baked Radix Vladimiriae with in vitro intestinal muscle of rabbits and its impact on the spasm of rabbit intestinal muscle induced by acetylcholine, histamine phosphate and Bacl2. RESULTS:There was a certain dose-effect relationship between petroleum ether parts of baked Radix Vladimiriae and spasmolytic mechanism of rabbit in vitro intestine. It showed the effect of acetylcholine, histamine phosphate and Bacl2. CONCLUSION:The inhibition effect of petroleum ether parts of baked Radix Vladimiriae on normal in vitro intestinal muscle increase as long as dose increase. The inhibition mechanism may be associated with acetylcholine competing with histamine to block M receptor and H1 receptor as well as to inhibit excitability of intestinal muscle.

Background Graft rejection is a primary cause of corneal transplantation failure,especially in high-risk keratoplasty.How to extend the survival time of graft is a problem to be solved.Objective This study was to investigate the influence of immune tolerance on high-risk rat keratoplasty induced by donor bone marrowderived immature dendritic cells (imDCs) transfected by chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) recombinant adenovirus (Ad).Methods Bone marrow-derived imDCs were isolated and cultured from femur marrow of one male Wistar donor rat.The cells were transfected using recombinant Ad vector with rat CCR7 gene and resuspended in 500 μl PBS containing 1% fetal bovine serum with the cells 1 × 107.High-risk corneal transplantaion models were established using monolateral corneal alkali-burn method in 60 SD rat recipients, and then allograft keratoplasty was performed with the 30 Wistar rats as donors.The models were randomized into the PBS group,imDCs group,imDCs with blank Ad vector group and imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group following the corresponding solution injection via caudal vein on preoperative day 7 and postoperative day 3 respectively.The survival time of graft was evaluated under the slit lamp microscope once per day.On the 14th day after operation, corneal sections were prepared from 6 eyes of each group for the pathological examination,and the relative expression levels of T helper cell 1 (Th1)-related factors,interleukin-2 (IL-2) mRNA and interferon-γ(IFN-γ) mRNA,as well as Th2-related factors, IL-4 mRNA and IL-10 mRNA, were detected by reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR).The use and care of animals complied with the ARVO statement Results The mean survival time of grafts was (10.44±1.88) , (16.00±2.18) , (15.11±2.03) and(23.67±2.83) days in the PBS group,imDCs group,imDCs with blank Ad group and imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group, respectively, with a significant difference among the 4 groups (F =53.005, P =0.000).Compared with the PBS group, the mean survival time of grafts was considerably extended in the imDCs group,imDCs with blank Ad group and imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group (t=5.220,4.385,12.423 ,all at P=0.000) ,and a remarkble prolongation of graft survival duration was seen in the imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group in comparison with the imDCs group and the imDCs with blank Ad group (t =7.204,8.039,both at P=0.000).The relative expression levels of IFN-γ mRNA and IL-2 mRNA in the grafts were significantly lower,but the relative expression levels of IL-4 mRNA and IL-10 mRNA were significantly higher in the imDCs group,imDCs with blank Ad group and the imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group than those in the PBS group (all at P<0.05).Compared with the imDCs group and the imDCs with blank Ad group, the relative expression levels of IFN-γ mRNA and IL-2 mRNA in the grafts were remarkably delined,but the relative expression levels of IL-4 mRNA and IL-10 mRNA were remarkably elevated in the imDCs with Ad-CCR7 group (all at P =0.000).Conclusions Application of imDCs transfected with CCR7 recombinant Ad via vena caudalis can prolong the survival time of grafts after keratoplasty of SD rats probably by affecting the balance of Th1/Th2 cytokines.

The hypoglycemic activity and its mechanism of Jatrorrhizine (Jat) were studied. The normal mice and alloxan-induced hyperglycemic mice were given with different doses of Jat. Blood glucose and liver glycogen levels were determined by spectrophotometry with glucose-oxidase and iodine reagents respectively. The levels of blood lactic acid (LC) and liver lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity were measured to explore the effect of Jat on anaerobic glycolysis. Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) activity in liver was measured to evaluate the effect of Jat on aerobic glycolysis in liver. It was found that Jat (50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg) could significantly decrease blood glucose level in a dose- and time-dependent manner in both normal and alloxan-diabetic mice, increase the activity of SDH, but had no significant effects on the LC level and LDH activity. Jat could significantly reduce the content of liver glycogen in normal mice. Moreover, Jat could inhibit the platelet aggregation in rabbits in vitro in a dose-effect relationship. It was concluded that Jat induced the pronounced decrease in blood glucose in normal and hyperglycemic mice. The hypoglycemic activity of Jat may be attributed to the enhancement of aerobic glycolysis.
