Objective To explore the mechanism of the Jiedu Huayu Ⅱ Decoction in actue hepatic failure.MethodsThe acute hepatic failure rat models were induced with thioacetamide (TAA).84 SPF Wistar rats were divided into 7 groups randomly:blank group,model group,low dose group,middle dose group,high dose group,lactulose group,and the Angong Niuhuang Pill group.The drugs were administrated by gavage 3 d before model-making,5.5 d in total.The expression of Bcl-2,cytochrome C in mitochondrial and cytoplasm were measured with Western Blot.ResultsThe expression of Bcl-2 reduced in mitochondrial,the expression of cytochrome C increased in cytoplasm and reduce in mitochondrial in model group compare with that of blank group.Jiedu Huayu Ⅱ Decoction was able to enhance the expression of Bcl-2 and restrain cytochrome C release from mitochondrial to cytoplasm.Moreover,it shows dose-effect relation.ConclusionThe protection of Jiedu Huayu Ⅱ Decoction for hepatocyte in acute hepatic failure rats maybe relate to the increase of Bcl-2 in mitochondrial,blocking the mitochondrial permeability transition pore to arrest cytochrome C releasing.

Background Even though the change in wavefront aberrations with correction modality is well documented in the literature,little is known about the underlying mechanism.Complete understanding of the causes responsible for the wavefront change in the combined lens-eye system is important since it provides basic knowledge for further improving the technique to correct refractive error by correcting lenses.Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of refractive correction lens on optical property of the eye by analyzing Zernike aberrations in myopic eyes with contact lens correction.Methods This study was approved by the Ethic Committee of Wenzhou Medical College.Written informed consent was obtained from each subject before entering this study.Zernike aberrations of 52 myopic eyes of 26 subjects with the spherical equivalent-1.75 to-8.50 D were measured using a Hartmann-Shock wavefront sensor.The human eye aberrations were examined at the uncorrected condition,rigid-gas-permeable contact lens (RGP-CL) corrected condition and soft contact lens (Soft-CL) corrected condition.The differences of wavefront aberrations and Zernike coefficients were compared by repeated measurement of single factor variance analysis,and correlation of the aberration changes between uncorrected condition and RGP-CL corrected condition or Sofi-CL corrected condition,between the right eyes and left eyes in different conditions were analyzed by Pearson linear correlation.Results Mean total root-mean-square (tRMS) was (0.71 ± 0.30)μm,(0.54±0.19)μm and (0.74±0.32)μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference (F =8.758,P＜0.001),and tRMS was significant declined under the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =2.746,P =0.008),and tRMS in RGP-CL corrected condition was significantly lower than that in Soft-CL corrected condition (t =3.428,P =0.001).The high RMS (hRMS) was (0.34±0.12) μm,(0.28 ±0.12) μm,(0.40±0.14) μm in the uncorrected condition,RGP-CL corrected condition and Soft-CL corrected condition,with a significant difference among them (F =10.681,P＜0.001).An insignificant decrease of hRMS was seen in the RGP-CL corrected condition compared with uncorrected condition (t =1.987,P=0.053),but hRMS value was significant higher in the Soft-CL corrected condition than that in the uncorrected condition (t=2.101,P=0.041) and RGP-CL corrected condition (t=4.266,P＜0.001).Compared with uncorrected condition,the axis astigmatism (C5) and spherical aberration (C12) in the RGP-CL corrected condition and spherical aberration (C12) in the Soft-CL corrected condition were significantly reduced (P＜0.05),and the absolute values of trefoil (C6),vertical coma (C7) and tetrafoil (C10) in the RGP-CL corrected condition were lower than those of the uncorrected condition,but vertical coma (C7) absolute value in the Soft-CL corrected condition was increased (P＜0.05).A significantly positive correlation was seen in the spherical aberration (C12) between the RGP-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition (r =0.763,P＜0.001),and less significant correlation was in the secondary astigmatism (C11) between the Soft-CL corrected condition and uncorrected condition(r=0.469,P＜0.001).Conclusions Different contact lens corrected conditions exert their effects on ocular wavefront structure due to its unique interaction with the eye.RGP-CL wearing has strong modification on wavefront aberrations probably due to its molding effect on corneal surface,which reduces the bilateral symmetry.High order wavefront aberration can be modified by Soft-CL wearing.

Objective To observe the changes of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) expression in left ventricular myocardium of the dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) rats induced by adriamycin and its correlation with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).Methods One hundred and twenty SPF Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups as follows:control group (n =15),model group(n =105).Adriamycin was administered in the model group by intraperitoneal injection for 3 times in a week and repeated with a two-week interval for 6 times,while 9 g/L saline were administered in the control group in the same pattern,thus DCM rats model were constructed by the end of the 8th week.Both the model group and control group rats were drawn out and their LVEF were tested by the end of the 8th week and 12th week.Apoptosis index (AI) and the ASK1 in myocardium were tested respectively by apoptotic cells situ labeling,semi-quantitative analysis and Western blot.Results The AI of the control group,the 8th weekend model group and the 12th weekend model group were 0.53 ±0.27,16.13 ± 1.72,19.54 ±2.24.The AI of the 8th and the 12th weekend model groups were obviously higher than that in the control group.Comparing the differences among the 3 groups were statistically significant (F =18.98,P ＜ 0.05).The relative ASK1 expressions in ventricular myocardium of the control group,the 8th weekend model group and the 12th weekend model group were 0.169 ± 0.010,0.649 ± 0.071,0.781 ±0.077.Comparing the differences among the 3 groups were statistically significant (F =27.72,P ＜ 0.01).The LVEF (％) results of the control group,the 8th weekend model group and the 12th weekend model group were 75.41 ± 2.02,53.25 ±3.74,39.21 ±6.13.Comparing the differences among the 3 groups were statistically significant(F =154.87,P ＜0.01).There was a negative correlation between the ASK1 expression and LVFE in model group at the end of 12weeks(r =-0.86,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The ASK1 expression in myocardium of the DCM group increases obviously,thus apoptosis signal-regulating probably participates in the pathological process of DCM induced by ASK1.

Objective To explore the relationship between the values of total tumor perfusion parameters in primary hepatocellular carcinoma and tumor volume and peritumoral perfusion parameters,and analyze its correlation with liver ChildPugh classification.Methods Forty-seven patients with primary liver cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to January 2015 were selected to perform 320 row volume CT perfusion imaging.The parameters of hepatic artery perfusion(HAP),portal vein perfusion(PVP) and hepatic perfusion index(HAPI) in tumor and peritumoral liver tissues were calculated based on total tumor measurement.The relationship between tumor perfusion parameters and ChildPugh classification of liver function,tumor volume and total tumor perfusion parameters,total tumor perfusion parameters and peritumoral perfusion parameters were analyzed.Results There was no correlation between tumor volume and total tumor perfusion parameters,peritumoral perfusion parameters (P ＞ 0.05),and there was no correlation between total tumor perfusion parameters and peritumoral perfusion parameters(P ＞0.05).There were significant differences between HAP,PVP and HAP of total tumor perfusion in different liver Child-Pugh classifications(P ＜ 0.05).With the increase of Child-Pugh classification of liver function,the HAP and HAPI of tumor gradually increased while PVP gradually decreased (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions There is no correlation between tumor volume,total tumor perfusion parameters and peritumoral perfusion parameters.There is also no correlation between total tumor perfusion parameters and peritumoral perfusion parameters.There are significant differences in perfusion parameters between different Child-Pugh classifications of liver function,and the perfusion parameters obtained by the total tumor measurement can be used as the imaging indexes to reflect liver reserve function.

AIM: To observe the anti-oxidative activity and adverse laxative effect of raw, traditional processed and fermented products of Polygoni Multiflori Radix (PMR), and furthermore, to evaluate the fermentation method used in the processing procedure of PMR. METHODS: In vitro ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay was carried out to evaluate the anti-oxidative activity. Modulation of normal defecation and effect on gastrointestinal motility in mice were carried out to investigate their adverse laxative effect. RESULTS: Fermented PMR induced less severe laxative adverse effect than Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata (PMRP). PMR fermented with Rhizopus sp. (FB) could modulate the defecation significantly. The gastrointestinal motility was inhibited by PMRP and PMR fermented with Rhizopus oryzae (FA). FA and FB showed better antioxidant activity than PMRP in 50% and 95% ethanol group. Contents of 2, 3, 5, 4'-tetrahydroxy-stilbene-2-O-β-D-glucoside (TSG) were reduced significantly after traditional processing but maintained after fermentation. Emodin and physcion were increased after traditional processing and fermented with Rhizopus oryzae. CONCLUSION All processing procedure, including fermentation, might reduce its anti-oxidative activity. However, most of the processed products could lessen the adverse effect on gastrointestinal tract compared to PMR. Fermentation with Rhizopus oryzae was considered as a promising processing method of PMR.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinicopathologic features of sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of spleen and its differential diagnosis.

METHODSThe clinicopathologic characteristics and immunophenotype of 4 cases of sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of spleen were studied.

RESULTSHistologically, all cases were characterized by multiple angiomatoid nodules of various sizes in a fibrosclerotic stroma. The nodules were round and sometimes convoluted. They were composed of slit-like, irregular-shaped or slightly dilated vascular spaces lined by plump endothelial cells and interspersed with a population of spindly or ovoid cells. Immunohistochemical study showed a heterogeneous staining pattern, with the lining cells of the small capillaries expressing CD34 and those of the sinusoid-like structures expressing CD8. CD31 highlighted both the lining cells and interspersed cells, resulting in a complex meshwork. The lining cells were also focally positive for CD68. Smooth muscle actin revealed conglomerates of spindly shaped cells around and between the vascular channels. These spindly shaped cells in the intervening stroma were focally positive for actin, but negative for desmin, CD21 and CD35.

CONCLUSIONSSclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation is a rarely encountered benign lesion of the spleen, which should be distinguished from other angiomatoid tumors and tumor-like lesions.
