Chemotherapy -induced peripheral neuropathy ( CIPN ) is one of the most common adverse effects in chemotherapy .The mechanism of CIPN has always been attracting researchers′attention.Recently,the intimate relationship between nerve growth factor and CIPN is one of the most hot topics .NGF protects neurons from damage of chemotherapy drugs through inhibiting apoptotsis and other pathway to relieve the neurotoxicity . However ,there are still many problems in the clinical application of exogenous NGF .To improve the mechanism of NGF in the development and application approach of CIPN ,treatment of chemotherapy -induced peripheral neu-rotoxicity is of great significance .

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the anti-angiogenic activity of ray cartilage glycosaminoglycans(RCG).METHODS:Primary culture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC)was performed,and MTT was adopted to evaluate the effects of RCG on the proliferation of HUVEC;Corneal neovascularization(CNV)was induced by sutures on Wistar rats,and CNV area was calculated to evaluate the effects of different concentration of RCG on CNV in Wistar rats.The model of mice with Lewis lung carcinoma was made to observe the effects of different concentration of RCG on tumor growth,with inhibition ratio of primary tumor measured and microvessel density(MVD)quantitated by immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS:RCG obviously inhibited the proliferation of HUVEC in vitro,with IC50 value at 62.93 mg?mL-1.As compared with normal saline group,RCG groups showed smaller areas of new blood vessels(P

Objective To investigate the protective effects of Xuebijing(XBJ)on the injury of vascular endothelial cells(VEC)induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS),and to study the mechanisms of the production of nitric oxide (NO)and the expressions of inducible nitric oxide sytnhase (iNOS)and signal transduction under XBJ intervention condition.Methods The cultured VEC were divided into control group, LPS (1 mg · L-1 )group, LPS (1 mg·L-1)+XBJ(25 g·L-1)group,LPS(1 mg·L-1)+pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate(PDTC,20μmol·L-1) group;XBJ and PDTC were administrated 1 h before incubation of with LPS.Western blotting method was used to detect the expressions of iNOS and NF-κB p65 protein.The level of NO in the supernatant was measured by Griess reagent.Results Comparaed with control group,the NO level and the expression levels of iNOS protein and NF-κB p65 protein in VEC in LPS group were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with LPS group,the NO level and the expression levels of iNOS protein and NF-κB p65 protein in VEC in LPS+XBJ group were significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);the NO level and the expression levels of NF-κB p65 protein and iNOS protein in VEC in LPS+PDTC group were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01).There were no significant differences of the NO levels and the expression levels of iNOS protein between LPS+XBJ group and LPS +PDTC group (P>0.05),but the expression level of NF-κB p65 protein in LPS+PDTC group was lower than that in LPS+XBJ group(P<0.05).Conclusion XBJ can inhibit the production of NO and the expression of iNOS protein in VEC;its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of NF-κB to control inflammation.

Hyperuricemia mice model was established with uricase inhibitor (potassium oxonate) and uric acids in serum were observed. Polydatin (5, 10, 20 mg · kg(-1)) and benzbromarone (16.7 mg · kg(-1)) were given ig for 7 d in mice. Kidney tissues were used to detect gene contents ofurate anion transporter 1 (URAT1), organic anion transporter 1 (OAT1) and organic anion transporter 3 (OAT3) by real-time-PCR. The results showed that polydatin and benzbromarone can significantly reduce uric acid in blood of hyperuricemia mice (P < 0.05), compared with the model group. URAT1, OAT1 and OAT3 contents of the kidney in hyperuricemia mice changed significantly (P < 0.05), compared with the blank group. Polydatin can significantly inhibit the changing trends in these genes induced by potassium oxonate in a dose-dependent manner, the difference was significant (P < 0.05), compared with the model group. Those indicated that polysatin could reduce the level of the serum uric acid through promoting uric acid excretion.

Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of whole stage and first stage of labor analgesia on puerperas with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome.Methods From March, 201 5 to November,201 5,1 96 single fetus,aged 22-35 years,term pregnancy,primipara,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, diagnosed pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome, were randomly divided into the whole stage of labor analgesia group (group T)and the first stage of labor analgesia group (group F).Patients in group T received labor analgesia after uterine contractions regularly,and continued the labor analgesia to the end of the delivery;patients in group F received labor analgesia after uterine contractions regularly and the uterus cervix was 3 cm,in the end of the first stage of la-bor,using the normal saline instead of the medicine.The MAP and VAS score were recorded before analgesia and 10 minutes,60 minutes after the beginning of analgesia,when the uterine cervix dilated absolutely,the second stage of labor and when the fetal is delivered.The Bromage scores were recor-ded at the second stage of labor.The time for the first stage of labor,the second stage of labor and the third stage of labor were recorded.The mode of delivery,the incidence of eclampsia,postpartum hemorrhage,the use of oxytocin and antihypertensive in the delivery progress were recorded.The ne-onate weight,Apgar score and the cord blood gas analysis were recorded.Results At the uterine cer-vix dilated absolutely and the second stage of labor,the MAP [(106.0±7.0)mm Hg vs.(1 1 5.4± 7.3)mm Hg,(106.2 ± 7.2 )mm Hg vs.(1 1 6.0 ± 7.6 )mm Hg]and VAS score [(2.0 ± 1.1 ) scores vs.(5.1±1.2)scores,(1.9±1.2)scores vs.(5.2±1.3)scores]in group T were lower than those in group F (P <0.05).The patients who received oxytocin in group T were more than that in group F [50(5 1%)vs.35(35%),P <0.05].Conclusion The whole stage labor epidural analgesia is safe and effective for puerperas with pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome.

Objective To study the effects of extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) on avascular nec-rosis of the femoral head. Methods Thirty-two rabbits were used to make the avascular necrosis of the femoral headmodel by use of freezing method. Two rabbits were chosen to check the result of the model. Thirty rabbits were ran-domly divided into 2 groups : a treatment group and a control group. Each group was observed 2, 4 and 8 weeks aftertreatment. Morphological and pathological changes of the femoral head were observed. An immunohistochemicalmethod was used to examine the distribution of vessel endothelium growth factor (VEGF) and fibroblast growth factor(bFGF) immunoreactive-positive cells in the bone tissues. Results Morphologically, the femoral heads of treat-ment group were smoother and glossier than those of the control group. The empty lacunae ratio, the number of theosteoblast was significantly different between the treatment and the control group. The expression of VEGF and hFGFin the bone tissues of treatment group increased significantly when compared with control group. Conclusion ES-WT can promote healing of avascular necrosis of femoral head.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the content of ET-1, CGRP, NO in myocardium and cardiac function in chronic renal ischemia of rats caused by abdominal aortic banding. Methods Male wistar rats (weight 180 - 200g) were randomly divid-ed into 2 groups, operation group (n=30) and sham operation group (n=10). Abdominal aorta ligation between right and left renal ar-tery was made with silk suture in operation group, and the narrow degree of aorta was about 50% which was controlled by ligateing with a syr-inge needle (7#). The aorta was not ligated in sham operation group. After 16 weeks of operation, invasive measurement of blood pressure and cardiac function were performed, and content of ET-1, CGRP and NO in myocardium were determined. Results Compared with sham operation group, the blood pressures of rats in operation group were significantly elevated, with cardiac systolic and diastolic function de-creased and left ventricular mass index increased. After 16 weeks, compared with sham operation group, the content of ET-1 in cardiac tissue were significantly elevated in operation group (P<0.01), while the content of CGRP (P<0.01)and NO (P>0.05)were decreased. There were negative correlation between the content of ET-1 in cardiac tissue and LV +dp/dt max(r = -0.37, P<0. 05). Conclusions In the state of chronic kidney iachemia caused by abdominal aorta ligation, content of ET-1 in cardiac tissues were increased while CGRP and NO were decreased. There were negative correlation between the content of ET-1 in cardiac tissues and LV systolic function.
