[Objective] To study the influence on humoral immunity and ectopic endometrium by infusion of Bushen Tiaojing Decoction (BTD) with the Huoxue Sanjie Suppository (HSS) in anus. [Methods] One hundred and thirty SD rats were allocated to ten groups: normal control (A), model (B), normal dose of HSS (C), normal dose of BTD with HSS (D), 3 doses of BTD (E), 3 doses of BTD with HSS (F), 5 doses of BTD (G), 5 doses of HSS (H), 5 doses of BTD with HSS (I), and Danazol (J) groups. The endometriosis (EM) rats were modeled by endometrium implantation in all groups except those in Group A. Four weeks after the treatment, the contents of immunoglobulin (IgG、IgM、IgA), C_3, C_4 and ALT were tested, and histomorphomological analysis of the thymus, ovary, uterus, EM implants, liver and kidney were performed. [Results] Four weeks after EM implantation, the ectopic endometria were growing well, IgG and C_3 increased, but IgM decreased, and the uterus and ovary significantly enlarged. With the treatment of BTD and HSS or Danazol, the ectopic endometria were atrophied. In Groups F and G, IgG decreased; in Groups H and I, C_3 decreased, and uterus and ovary shrunk in Group I. Danazol can help to prolong the sexual cycle, while BTD and HSS can not. In all the medication groups, no obvious difference was found in ALT of the rats. [Conclusion] Oral administration of BTD with HSS can cause endometrial atrophy and improve humoral immunity in model rats.

Objective: To determine the potency of QN-2013, a derivative of quinoxaline 1,4-N-oxide, as a hypoxia-selective cytotoxin or a radiosensitizer. Methods: In vitro cytotoxicity and radiosensitization, as well as in vivo antitumor activity were determined by colony formation and tumor growth delay respectively. The changes in the cell cycle, DNA damage and repair of damaged DNA were assayed by FCM and “comet” assay, separately. Results: ICN250 and ICair50 of QN-2013 for HeLa-S3 cells were 0.08 and 1.7 mmol*L-1 respectively, namely, HCR=21. This suggested that QN-2013 was a fairly hypoxic cytotoxin, but inferior to SR-4233. QN-2013 had an evident radiosensitization either in vitro or in vivo. It was noted, however, that the value of in vitro SERs increased exponentially with increasing concentration of the drug, but the in situ antitumor activity seemed to be independent of doses of the drug. The systemic toxicity of QN-2013 was superior to an LD50 of 265 mg*kg-1 compared with 80 mg*kg-1 for SR-4233. In hypoxic condition QN-2013 induced S retension effect and G2M block in HeLa-S3 cells, caused DNA double strand break, and inhibited the repair of radiation-induced DNA damages. All of these reactivenesses might be involved in the action mechanism of QN-2013. Conclusion: QN-2013 is a fair hypoxia-selective cytotoxin, and has shown improved antitumor activity in vivo in combination with radiation. In general, These results suggest that the series of quinoxaline di-N-oxide derivatives hold out bright prospect for the development of novel bioreductive antitumor drugs.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of endoscopic injection of norepinephrine on cerebral infarction complicated by stress-induced gastrointestinal bleeding.Methods:A total of 150 patients with cerebral infarction complicated by stress-induced gastrointestinal bleeding who were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Lishui City People's Hospital from October 2020 to October 2021 were included in this study. These patients were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group using the random number table method, with 75 patients in each group. Patients in the control group received routine clinical treatment, while those in the observation group received endoscopic injection of norepinephrine in addition to routine clinical treatment. The hemostatic time, blood transfusion volume, and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The stress index and inflammatory index were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. The hemostatic effect and adverse reactions were evaluated in each group.Results:The hemostatic time, blood transfusion volume, and length of hospital stay in the observation group were (16.16 ± 4.36) hours, (385.35 ± 41.28) mL, and (5.35 ± 1.28) days, respectively, which were significantly shorter or less than (27.27 ± 6.34) hours, (447.07 ± 32.07) mL, and (7.07 ± 2.07) days in the control group ( t = 12.50, 10.22, 6.12, all P < 0.001). After treatment, the levels of cortisol, norepinephrine, antidiuretic hormone, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α in the observation group were (288.33 ± 19.53) mmol/L, (29.17 ± 4.26) μg/L, (4.08 ± 1.08) mU/L, (38.27 ± 8.72) ng/L, (6.69 ± 1.35) μg/L, and (6.37 ± 1.51) mg/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than (327.22 ± 22.01) mmol/L, (39.32 ± 5.54) μg/L, (5.36 ± 1.22) mU/L, (51.24 ± 13.23) ng/L, (8.67 ± 2.29) μg/L, and (11.44 ± 3.13) mg/L in the control group ( t = 11.44, 12.57, 6.80, 7.08, 6.45, 12.63, all P < 0.001). The overall response rate of hemostasis in the observation group was 94.67% (71/75), which was significantly higher than 82.67% (62/75) in the control group ( χ2 = 5.37, P < 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 8.00% (6/75), which was slightly, but not significantly, lower than 14.67% (11/75) in the control group ( χ2 = 1.66, P > 0.05). Conclusion:Endoscopic injection of norepinephrine for the treatment of cerebral infarction complicated by stress-induced gastrointestinal bleeding can rapidly stop bleeding, effectively reduce inflammation,improve stress index, and be highly safe.
