Objective To observe the alteration of scavenger receptor class A types Ⅰand Ⅱ (SR-AⅠ/Ⅱ) gene knock-out on lipid metabolism in mice fed with high-fat diet, and explore the underlying mechanism. Method The SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out and wild-type male mice were fed with normal and high-fat diet for 12 w. Thereafter, the level of lipid metabolism (such as the levels of lipids in blood and liver) was detected with enzyme method or oil red O staining, and the expression of scavenger receptor class B typeⅠ(SR-BⅠ) and CD36 in liver was analyzed by RT-PCR. Results Under high-fat diet condition, as compared with wild-type mice, the levels of TG, TC, LDL and HDL in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice were decreased at 3, 6, 12 w (P0.05). Conclusion The alteration of lipid metabolism induced by high-fat diet in SR-AⅠ/Ⅱgene knock-out mice might be relative with the up-regulated SR-BⅠmRNA expression and the counter transport of peripheral lipids to liver.

Objective To detect the effects of plasmin combined with hyaluronidase or hexafluoride SF6 on inducing posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). Methods Eighteen young pigmented rabbits were randomly divided into group A, B, and C with 6 rabbits in each. All of the right eyes were the experimental eyes and the left ones was the control. The right eyes in group A, B, and C were injected with plasmin 1 U, plasmin 1 U and hyaluronidase 20 U, and plasmin 1 U and SF_6 0.5 ml, respectively; while all of the left eyes underwent intra-vitreous injection with balanced salt solution 0.1 ml. The eyes were observed by indirect ophthalmoscopy, slit lamp examination, biomicroscopy, B-ultrasonography, and electroretinography (ERG) before and after injection respectively. At last, the retinal sections were examined by light microscopy, scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Results The results of scanning microscopy showed incomplete PVD in 2 (33.3%) experimental eyes in group A, and complete PVD in 4 (66.7%) experimental eyes in both group B and C, and the positive rate of PVD in both group B and C significantly differed from that in group A (P0.05). The results of transmission electron microscopy and light microscopy indicated unchanged retinal structure. Conclusions Compared with the application of only plasmin, plasmin combined with hyaluronidase or hexafluoride SF_6 can induce complete PVD more efficiently and do no harm to the retina.

Objective To investigate the clinical therapeutic effect of Xuebijing injection for treatment of patients with diabetic nephropathy(DN)and its mechanism. Methods 60 DN patients were randomly divided into Xuebijing group and control group(each,30 cases). The patients in both groups received western conventional treatment,and the patients in Xuebijing group received additionally Xuebijing injection intra-venous injection once a day for 14 days. The fasting blood glucose(FBG),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),urinary albumin excretion rate(AER),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),serum creatinine(SCr),hematocrit(HCT),fibrinogen(Fg),whole blood viscosity,total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and interleukin -6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and urine β2-microglobulin(β2-MG)levels before and after treatment were detected,and the curative effect was also observed in both groups. Results In the control group blood FBG,BUN,SCr,TC,IL-6 and TNF-αafter treatment were significantly decreased and HDL-C significantly increased compared with those before treatment(all P<0.05). Compared with those before treatment,in Xuebijing group after Xuebijing therapy,blood FBG,β2-MG,AER,BUN, SCr,TC,TG,HCT,blood viscosity,IL-6 and TNF-αwere significantly decreased,and HDL-C was obviously increased,but there were no significant differences in HbA1c,LDL-C and Fg before and after treatment. The above indexes were changed significantly in Xuebijing group compared with those in control group〔FBG(μg/L):6.98±1.14 vs. 9.73±1.62,β2-MG(μg/L):32.1±10.9 vs. 57.2±15.1,AER(μg/min):86.0±28.1 vs. 152.0±51.6,BUN (mmol/L):12.4±8.1 vs. 19.5±8.9,SCr(μmol/L):301.2±151.9 vs. 371.3±168.6,HCT:0.283±0.075 vs. 0.351±0.059,TC(mmol/L):3.4±1.8 vs. 4.1±1.5,TG(mmol/L):3.4±1.5 vs. 3.6±1.7,HDL-C(mmol/L):1.90±0.75 vs. 1.50±0.25, IL-6 (ng/L):8.96±2.07 vs. 12.75±2.47, TNF-α(pmol/L):17.85±4.75 vs. 20.87±4.90,P<0.05 or P<0.01〕. The total efficiency in Xuebijing group was significantly higher than that in control group(83.3%vs. 36.7%,P<0.01). Conclusion Xuebijing injection has significant protective effects on patients with DN,and the mechanism might be associated with increasing tissue perfusion and inhibiting excessive inflammatory cytokines release.

OBJECTIVE:To study the relationship between cisplatin-resistant of human ovarian cancer cells (SKOV3) and Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) under hypoxia. METHODS:Immunofluorescence method was used to detect the TLR9 expression in rupture and intact membranes SKOV3. SKOV3 was taken,adding cisplatin,then CCK-8 was used to detect cell inhibition rate af-ter 6,12,24 h of added into TLR9 specific agonists CpG-ODN 2006 (group A) and its isotype control CpG-ODN 2006 control (group B). SKOV3 or SKOV3 pretreated by 0(not added),1,10,102,103 μmol/L TLR9 specific antagonist chloroquine for 3 h were taken,adding cisplatin,cell inhibition rate was detected after 24 h of added into SKOV3 normoxia(21% O2),hypoxia(1%O2)incubating 6,12,24 h,HICR under hypoxia in pretreatment was calculated. Western blot method was used to detect the multi-drug resistance associated protein(MRP)expression in SKOV3 under the conditions of normoxia 24 h cell supernatant(group C), hypoxia 24 h cell supernatant(group D),hypoxia 24 h cell supernatant+10 μmol/L chloroquine(group E). RESULTS:TLR9 was expressed in both cell membrane and cytoplasm of SKOV3. Compared with group A,cell inhibition rate in group B was decreased (P<0.01). Compared with normoxia cell supernatant,cell inhibition rate was decreased after hypoxia cell supernatant (P<0.05). Compared with not added chloroquine,adding 10,102 μmol/L chloroquine can obviously decrease HICR(P<0.01),and the most significant decrease was showed when using hypoxia 24 h cell supernatant+10 μmol/L chloroquine. Compared with group C,MRP expression in group D was strengthened (P<0.01);compared with group D,MRP expression in group E was weakened (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:TLR9 receptors can be activated under hypoxia,and cause SKOV3 to cisplatin-resistance,the effect may be related with up-regulating MRP expression.

OBJECTIVE: To study the lactagogue effect of Rutong granule on rat with postpartum hypogalactia. METHODS: Female rats which had kittening behavior within 24 h were selected to induce rat model by perfusing bromocriptinum. Meanwhile, model rats were given Rutong granule via i.g. gtt. Milk yield of female rats and body weight of young rats were determined everyday from the second day. Rats were sacrificed on the 8th day. The level of PRL and histological change of breast were observed. RESULTS: Rutong granule can increase the serum PRL level gradually to promote the increase of acinar number and dilatation of gland ducts. Rutong granules can also increase the milk yield of female rats and weight of young rats. CONCLUSION: Rutong granule can promote secretion of milk by means of increase of PRL level and expediting of secretion channels.
