Objective To explore the effects of Buyang Huanwu decoction(BYHWD)on expressions of nuclear factor-κB p65(NF-κBp65)and its inhibitor( I-κB)in signal transduction of NF-κB in brain tissue of rats with focal cerebral ischemia injury. Methods 180 Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into normal group,sham-operated group,model group,pynolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC)group,minocycline(MC)group and BYHWD treatment group,each group 30 rats. The rats of PDTC group were given PDTC 100 mg?kg-1?d-1 by intra-peritoneal injection. In MC group,MC was given by filling the stomach,the dose was 2.35 g?kg-1?d-1,the drug solution was prepared by adding the distilled water,and the total volume of drug solution to fill the stomach was kept at the same volume in various groups,thus the concentration of the drug was different. In BYHWD group,BYHWD was given,the dose was reduced to 5 g?kg-1?d-1 according to the body surface area dose conversion formula about people and animals. In sham-operated group and model group,the distilled water was given in the same volume as other drug solution. The protein expression levels of NF-κBp65 and I-κB in ischemic tissues were examined by using immunohistochemical method on the time points 7,14 and 21 days after treatment in each group. Results Compared with model group, the cell numbers with expression of NF-κBp65 in PDTC group,MC group and BYHWD group were significantly decreased along with the prolongation of therapy time,the decrease in number was more and more,until 21 days,it reached the valley level(cell/400 times HP:44.00±6.91,45.33±6.55,18.67±2.14 vs. 126.00±5.78,all P<0.05);the number of cells with expression of I-κB was obviously increased,the differences being statistically significant(all P<0.05),but the differences in expression of NF-κBp65 among the treatment groups at the different time points were not statistically significant(all P>0.05). After treatment for 7 days,the number of cells with positive expression of I-κB protein in BYHWD group was less than that in MC group(cell/400 times HP:55.00±3.40 vs. 72.50±4.29,P<0.05);after treatment for 14 days,the number in BYHWD group was approximately the same as that in the MC group, the difference being not statistically significant(93.50±6.15 vs. 93.00±6.20,P>0.05),and after treatment for 21 days,the number in BYHWD group was significantly higher than that in MC group(88.83±4.95 vs. 71.17±7.16, P<0.05). Conclusion BYHWD can regulate the expressions of inflammatory cytokine I-κB and NF-κB in signal transduction of NF-κB in ischemic brain tissue to inhibit the inflammatory reaction,thus it has the protective effect on cerebral ischemia.

Hepatolenticular degeneration (HLD) is an autosomal recessive liver disease associated with copper metabolism disorders. Mutations in the ATP7B gene on chromosome 13 result in impaired transmembrane transport of copper ions, which in turn leads to excessive deposition of copper in the liver, brain, cornea, kidney, and bone joints (mainly in the liver and the brain). Early diagnosis and treatment can significantly reduce tissue damage and improve the prognosis of patients. American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases issued the guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of HLD in 2008, and the European Association for the Study of the Liver released such guidelines in 2012. This article summarizes the recent research advances in China and foreign countries to give an overview of the treatment of HLD.

Multiple myeloma is a plasma cell disease with the second highest incidence among hematological malignancies. Its risk of concurrent thrombosis is high, which greatly affects the quality of life and even endangers life of multiple myeloma patients. The pathogenesis of thrombosis in patients with multiple myeloma is complex, which is still unclear. However many mechanisms are considered to be related to hypercoagulable state in patients with multiple myeloma. Currently, there is a lack of thrombosis risk assessment model for multiple myeloma. Therefore, this paper reviews the research and the latest progress of venous thrombosis in patients with multiple myeloma, and provides a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis.
