Chinese Traditional Patent Medicine 1992;0(02):-
AIM: To establish the determination of ginsenoside R e and R g1 in Compound Jiangtang Oral Liquid(Radix Ginseng, Fructus Schisandrae Chinensis, Radix Rehmannia, Radix Asparagi, etc.) by HPLC. METHODS: C 18 ODS was used as a stationary phase, acetonitrile-0.05% phosphoric acid (96∶400) as a mobile phase and detection wavelength at 203nm. RESULTS: The linear range of ginsenoside R e concentration was from 0.66 to 3.29?g?mL -1 and correlation coefficient was 0.9991, the linear range of ginsenoside R g1 concentration was from 1.05 to 5.27?g?mL -1 and correlation coefficient was 0.9998. The average recovery of sample was 98.2% and RSD 2.2% ( n =5), respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is simple and convenient, accurate with a good reproducibility and can be used for determination of ginsenoside R e and R g1 in Compound Jiangtang Oral Liquid.

Objective To explore the role of apelin in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.Methods A total of one hundred and fourteen patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Qingdao Municipal Hospital from July 2015 to June 2016 were divided into normal albuminuria group (56 cases in the NA group) and micro-albuminuria group (58 cases in the MA group),depending on whether the level of urinary micro-albumin in 24 h was higher than 30 mg,with 60 healthy subjects included as the controls group (NC group).Levels of serum apelin and other biochemical indexes were tested.Results (1) WC,BMI,TC,TG,LDL-C,FBG,FINS,HOMA-IR and apelin in the patients of the NA group and MA group were respectively (87.99±10.27) cm,(24.75±3.35) kg/m2,(5.27±1.28) mmol/L,(1.84±1.25) mmol/L,(3.36±0.91) mmol/L,(7.58±0.87) mmol/L,(13.29±3.57) U/L,4.50±1.41,(364.22±85.03) ng/L ,(90.10±8.97) cm,(25.47±2.82) kg/m2,(5.19±1.11) mmol/L,(2.23±1.43) mmol/L,(3.68±0.83) mmol/L,(7.89±1.11) mmol/L,(15.50±5.00) U/L,5.55±2.27,(397.42±91.29) ng/L,which were higher than those of the NC group ((83.20±5.36) cm,(22.59±2.67) kg/m2,(4.68±1.10) mmol/L,(1.37±0.58) mmol/L,(2.56±0.94) mmol/L,(5.11±0.82) mmol/L,(7.17±2.80) U/L,1.65±0.77,(309.34±68.28) ng/L,P<0.05).FINS,HOMA-IR and apelin in the MA group were significantly higher than those in the NA group (P<0.05).(2) After age,sex and BMI were taken into control,partial correlate analysis showed that serum apelin was positively correlated with LDL-C,FPG,FINS and HOMA-IR (r=0.183,0.314,0.374,0.378,P<0.05).(3) Multifactor regression analysis showed that HOMA-IR and BMI were independent related factors to serum apelin (r2=0.288,0.389,P<0.05).Conclusion Apelin levels in the MA group were significantly higher than those in the NA group,and the serum apelin was positively correlated with HOMA-IR.Thus,apelin may contribute to the pathogenesis and progress of diabetic nephropathy.

Objective To explore the level of Th2 type cytokines including IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13, and the immunoreg-ulation of cytokines in patients with neurocysticercosis. Methods Lymphocytes in patients with neurocysticercosis were separated from the blood sample with density gradient centrifugation and the total RNA was extracted by guanidine isothiocynate method. cDNA was synthesized by reversed transcription reaction. The target gene was then amplified by PCR. The PCR products were analyzed by electrophoresis. Results Results of RT-PCR showed that cytokines mRNA in lymphocytes of peripheral blcod were detected in 27 patients with neurocysticercosis but not in the other 3 cases. Among the positive cases, mRNA of IL-4, IL-10 and IL-13 was detected in 16, 17 and 14 cases respectively and mRNA of IL-4, IL-10 and/or IL-13 was detected in all the 27 cases. In the detection of lymphocytes in peripheral blcod of 10 healthy subjects, expression of IL-4 and IL-10 was found in only one case at low level. Conclusion The study revealed that Th2 associated cytokines were expressed at high level and the humoral immunocompetence was relatively strong in patients with neurocysticercosis.

Objective: To study the effect of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on human pancreatic cancer cell proliferation and apoptosis (mainly early stage) in vitro. Methods: SW1990 cells line were trea ted with As2O3 at different concentration. Cell proliferation was evaluated by MTT and apoptosis by Annexin-Ⅴ-fluostaining, electron-microscopy, flow cytometry and immunocytochemical staining of Bcl-2 and Bax. Results: As2O3 and cisplatin had the same cytotoxity on SW1990. The cytotoxic effe ct on tumor cell was produced by induction of apoptosis. Twelve hours after cult ure with 10 μg/ml As2O3, much more SW1990 cells went into apoptosis than t he control. The apoptosis rate reached 24% after 48 h with the similar concentra tion of As2O3. Immunohistochemical study revealed that the expression of Bcl -2 was decreased after treated with As2O3. Conclusion: As 2O3 can depress the proliferation of SW1990 in vitro, mainly through the i nduction of apoptosis, and it is a potential agent for pancreatic cancer chemoth erapy.

Asialogycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) is a specific receptor of mammalian hepatocytes,exclusively up-take the glycoprotein in the blood.The number of ASGPR correlates significantly with liver function,and the reduction of the number of ASGPR suggest liver dysfunction.Decreased ASGPR in patients with liver cirrhosis or portal hypertension or hepatocellar carcinoma,lead to varying degrees of liver dysfunction,which made it more susceptible to post operative complications.liver ASGPR scintigraphy with Technetium-99 m DTPA-galactosyl human serum albumin (99m Tc-GSA),combinating with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) technology can assess the functional reserve of remnant liver and predict incidence of postoperative complications,then assist to evaluate the use fulness for clinically surgical decisions.Current situation and progress of 99mTc-GSA SPECT imaging in hepatic surgery were reviewed in the paper.

Objective To investigate and analyze the behavior and therapeutic status of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Methods Out patients diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis in our hospital from May to August 2007 were enrolled. The data including sex, age of onset, site of first hospitalization and medication status were collected and analyzed. Results In this 181 RA patients, the mean age of onset was (53±11) year-old, mean history duration was (10±8) years, the ratio of male to female was 1:4.2. The orthopedics department was the most common site of first hospital visit (32.0%, 58/181) and rheumatology department was the most common site to clarify the diagnosis (62.4% ,113/181). The diagnosis delay caused by patients themselves was (5.9±17.2) months and the delay caused by doctors was (9.0±22.0) months. More than half of the patients were not treated appropriately before they came to our hospital. Methotrexate was the most commonly used DMARDs (67.3%), followed by leflunomide (46.4%), sulfasalazine (37.5%) and hydroxyehloroquine (19.6%). Conclusion In this cohort, the proportion of patients who come to rheumatology department immediately after disease onset is low. There is delay between symptoms and final diagnosis. More than half of the patients are not treated appropriately.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs),which can be isolated from organs and tissues,are cell populations with high degree of plasticity,similar to hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow,and can be in vitro cultured,induced and amplified.BMSCs are increasingly used in gene therapy,cell therapy and tissue engineering.BMSCs have been currently studied in a number of autologous transplantations,while not all BMSCs are suitable for autologous transplantation.BMSCs exhibit biological aging gradually when cultured in vitro.Biological aging can be divided into age-induced senescence and long-term passage induced senescence.Aging BMSCs demonstrate changes in biological behaviour which reduces the success rate of autologous transplantation.In this review,biological aging BMSCs are discussed in order to provide help for the transplantation of BMSCs.
