Objective To study the influence of carboxymethyl-chitosan (CM-chitosan) on phenotype and proliferation of chondrocytes stimulated by recombinant human interleukin-1? (rhIL-1?), and explore its mechanism. Methods Chondrocytes were isolated and cultured. 10 ng/ml IL-1? with or without CM-chitosan of varied concentrations were added into the culture medium. After 24 h, changes of proliferative ability of chondrocytes were tested by MTT and flow cytometry. Proteoglycan synthesis was measured by incorporation of Na235SO4 into chondrocytes, nitric oxide (NO) production was detected by Greiss reaction, mRNA expression of typeⅠ、Ⅱcollagens, Aggrecan and inducible NO synthase (iNOS) were examined by semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results CM-chitosan could significantly antagonize IL-1?-induced inhibitory effect on proliferation of chondrocytes, restore proteoglycan synthesis of chondrocytes, decrease NO production of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes, increase the mRNA expression of typeⅡcollagen and Aggrecan, but decrease the expression of typeⅠcollagen and iNOS. The effects of CM-chitosan were in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion CM-chitosan can maintain the proliferation and phenotype of IL-1?-induced chondrocytes.

OBJECTIVETo explore effects of Shenqi preparation,Traditional Chinese Medicine, on anti-fatigue and anti-oxidant functions.
METHODSOne hundred and twenty mice were randomly divided into control group and 3 experimental groups. The high, medium and low-dose of Shenqi preparation were given to the 3 experimental groups respectively, while distilled water to the control group for 15 d. The loaded swimming time, the level of lactate, serum urea nitrogen (SUN), muscle and liver glycogen, liver super-oxide dismutase (SOD), the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) were assayed.
RESULTSThe loaded swimming test showed that the exhausted swimming time of 3 experimental groups [(296.0 +/- 25.3)s, (437.0 ĝ 38.9)s, (595.0 +/- 53.9)s respectively] was longer than that of control group [(231.0 +/- 22.5)s, P < 0.05, P < 0.01]. The liver glycogen content of the high and medium-dose experimental groups were higher than that of control group respectively (P < 0.01). The SUN content of each experimental group was less than that of the control group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). Moreover,in the medium and high dose experimental groups, less accumulation of lactate was found (P < 0.01, P < 0.05), and the content of liver SOD and GSH-Px was higher (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). The content of liver MDA in high-dose experimental group was less than that of the control group (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONShenqi preparation, especially the high and medium-dose experimental groups, is able to improve exercise tolerance and has anti-fatigue and anti-oxidant effects in mice.
