J6-1 cell line is the first leukemic cell line established in China. It is a multi-clone cell line infected with both EBV and HHV-6. Many cytokines, receptors and other genes were cloned from J6-1 cell line since its establishment 30 years ago. Valuable information on leukemic characteristics and functions were obtained from the studies on this cell line, which could be categorized into several research subjects. These achievements implied the unique research value of multi-clone cell lines. This comment focuses attention on research advance of the J6-1 leukemic cell line in 30 years, including heterogeneity and multi-cloning of J6-1 cells, survival mechanism of J6-1 cell populations, abnormal intercellalar communication of J6-1 cells with its significance and inspiration from J6-1 cell line.

[Objective] To investigate the effect of ATA, a herbal medicine compound, for the treatment of the chronic infection of simian immunodeficiency virus ( SIV) in monkeys. [ Methods ] Eight Rhesus monkeys were infected with SIVmac251 to establish monkey models with chronic infection of SIV. After 18 months, the monkeys were randomized into model group and ATA group, administered with saline and ATA 2 g?kg-1?d-1 for 56 days respectively. The changes of signs were observed, plasma levels of T-lymphocyte subsets CD4+ and CD8+ were detected by flow cytometry and the lymph node biopsy were observed under light microscope before and after treatment. [Results] After treatment, the body weight increased and the incidence of infective diarrhea decreased in ATA group, the difference being insignificant. ATA had no obvious effect on white blood cells counting and the replication number of plasma SIV, but increased the plasma levels of T-lymphocyte subsets CD4+ and CD8+(P

Marine traditional Chinese medicine (MTCM) is an important part of Chinese medicine (CM),there are some differences in understanding of the current literature and the extension of the connotation of marine medicine,which leads to the definition dispute of MTCM,hindering clinical application and further development of MTCM.In this study,we explored the concept of MTCM in literature,discussed the attributes of ocean marine CM,summed up the differences between the land CM and MTCM over variety characteristics,effect of drug composition characteristics and biological activity characteristics,and discussed the connotation and extension of MTCM from three aspects of theoretical basis and the effect and source of the drug,leading to the formation of the narrow and broad concept of MTCM.The five kinds of disputes in the definition of MTCM were discriminated according to the concept and connotation,which provided a theoretical basis for the definition and the research of MTCM.Moreover,we also defined the English translation and its abbreviation as Marine Traditional Chinese Medicine (MTCM).

AIM: To compare genotype polymorphism of cytochrome CYP2C19 between Chinese Meng subjects and Chinese Han subjects. METHODS: The genotype polymorphism was analyzed by PCR RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) in 74 subjects of healthy Chinese Han and 6 subjects of Chinese Meng. RESULTS: Of the 74 genotyped healthy subjects, 31 ( 41.9 %) were homozygous for wildtype (wt/wt), 9 ( 12.2 %) were homozygous for CYP2C19m1 and CYP2C19m2 (m1/m1 or m1/m2 or m2/m2), and 34 ( 45.9 %) were heterozygous for CYP2C19m1 or CYP2C19m2 (m1/wt or m2/wt). Among the 6 genotyped Chinese Meng, 1 ( 16.7 %) was homozygous for wildtype (wt/wt), 2 ( 33.3 %) were homozygous for mutant allele CYP2C19m1 and CYP2C19m2 (m1/m1 or m1/m2 or m2/m2), and 3( 50.0 %) were heterozygous for CYP2C19m1 or CYP2C19m2 (m1/wt or m2/wt); no homozygous genotype for CYP2C19m2(m2/m2)was found in this study. CONCLUSION: There is no statistical difference in occurrence of wt/wt and m1/m1 between in 74 subjects of healthy Chinese Han and 6 subjects of Chinese Meng.

Objective To investigate the effects ofLiuwei-Dihuang Pills combined with Ginkgo Biloba Leaves Extract Tablets on diabetic complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods Seventy-eight patients with T2DM were randomized into a TCM treatment group and a conventional treatment group by random number table method, 39 in each group. The patients in the conventional treatment group were regularly using antihyperglycemic drugs or insulin. On the basis of conventional treatment group, the patients in the TCM treatment group were additionally treated withLiuwei-Dihuang Pills and Ginkgo Biloba Leaves Extract Tablets. Intima-media thickness (IMT) of internal carotid artery, vibration perception threshold (VPT) and diabetic retinopathy in both groups were detected before the treatment, 12 and 36 months after the treatment.Results The VPT in the left foot 12 months after the treatment in the TCM treatment group were significantly lower than that in the conventional treatment group (13.98 ±4.38 Vvs. 18.70 ±2.43 V;t=2.764, P=0.008). IMT of internal carotid artery (left: 0.81 ± 0.16 mmvs.0.70 ± 0.10 mm,t=3.120,P=0.003; right: 0.81 ± 0.17 mmvs. 0.73 ± 0.12 mm,t=2.286,P=0.026), VPT (left foot: 14.82 ± 6.45 Vvs. 20.63 ± 9.75 V,t=2.714, P=0.009; right foot: 16.73 ± 7.10 Vvs. 20.73 ± 10.35 V,t=2.001,P=0.048) and incidence of diabetic retinopathy (35.9%vs. 53.8%;χ2=5.804,P=0.016) 36 months after the treatment in the TCM treatment group were significantly lower than those in the conventional treatment group.ConclusionsLiuwei-Dihuang Pills combined with Ginkgo Biloba Leaves Extract Tablets can effectively reduce the progression of diabetic complications in patients with T2DM.

Objectives To investigate the clinical significance of CYP2C19 genotype detection for antiplatelet therapy of elder cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases(CCVD).Methods We enrolled all elderly patients with either cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disorders who received clopidogrel as mono drug or in combination with another antiplatelet drug aspirin as secondary prevention for more than 12 months in our hospital from January to August 2015.Somatotypes of CYP2C19 genotypes of all participants were assessed to analyze the relapse of cardiac-cerebral vascular diseases in these patients.Results A total of 250 patients were enrolled,including 179 male and 71 female,with average age of (85.2 ± 7.9) years.Among these patients,there were 97 (38.8％) cases with EM CYP2C19 genotypes,110 cases(44.0 ％) with IM CYP2C19 genotypes,43 cases(17.2 ％) with PM CYP2C19 genotypes.When treated with clopidogrel for antiplatelet in secondary prevention process,the rate of the relapse in cardiovascular event was 34.9％ and higher in PM CYP2C19 genotype than in EM and IM CYP2C19 genotype (19.6 ％ and 15.5 ％,respectively) (x2 =7.251,P =0.027).This phenomenon was similar to patients who received stent implantation(x2=6.393,P =0.041).However,no statistically significant difference was observed in the recurrence rate of cerebral vascular disease between three different genotypes(EM 29.9 ％,IM 20.0 ％,PM 27.9％,x2 =2.880,P =0.237).Conclusions Our results highlight that CYP2C19 genotype might be a potential guidance for secondary prevention of cardiovascular and cercbrovascular disorders among elderly patients.Clopidogrel may be less effective in patients with SM CYP2C19 genotype than those with EM or PM CYP2C19 genotype for secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease.

Objcetive: To investigate the effect of resveratrol (RES)combined with cisplatin (DDP)on the cholangiocarcinoma cell line FRH-0201 in vitro. Methods: FRH-0201 cells were exposed to different concentrations of RES or (and)DDP. Cell morphological changes were observed by light and fluorescence microscopy. Inhibition of cell proliferation was measured by MTT and colony-forming assay. And the flow cytometry were performed to detect the cell apoptosis rate and cell cycle. Results: Resveratrol inhibited the proliferation of FRH-0201 cells in a time-and dose-dependent manner in the concentration of 5～320 ?mol/L and the IC50 values after the exposure of 24, 48, and 72 h were 55.35, 32.84, and 28.01 ?mol/L respectively. RES and DDP had synergetic effect in the inhibition of FRH-0201 cells. Conclusion: RES can inhibit the growth of FRH-0201 cells and has the synergetic effect with DDP.
