Objective To establish a new quality control standard for danshen capsules. Methods The qualitative identification of danshen capsules was characterized by ultraviolet fluorescence and thin-layer chromatography( TLC ). The contents of tanshinoneⅡA,cryptotanshinone,salvianolic acid B,danshensu and protocatechuic aldehyde in danshen capsules were determined by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)on a C18 column. The flow rate was 1 mL·min-1,and the column temperature was 35 ℃. Results The HPLC linear ranges of tanshinone ⅡA,cryptotanshinone,salvianolic acid B, danshensu and protocatechuic aldehyde were 2. 046-40. 92 μg · mL-1 ,1. 482 25 -59. 29 μg · mL-1 ,1. 502 55 -60. 102 μg·mL-1 ,11. 49-459. 582 μg·mL-1 ,and 0. 617 4-24. 696 μg·mL-1 ,respectively,and r values were 0. 999 9. The average recoveries were 99. 66%(RSD of 0. 91%)for tanshinoneⅡA,99. 26%(RSD of 0. 88%)for cryptotanshinone,99. 09%(RSD of 0. 76%)for salvianolic acid B,100. 51%(RSD of 0. 62%)for danshensu,and 100. 62%(RSD of 0. 82%)for protocatechuic aldehyde,respectively. The contents of the tanshinoneⅡA,cryptotanshinone,salvianolic acid B,danshensu showed a certain high level in the 3 batches of danshen capsule samples,but protocatechuic aldehyde was low by comparison.

Objective To investigate the effects of soothing liver and activating blood Chinese medicine on myocardial cell apoptosis and related gene expression of BMSCs transplanting on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) of rats;To discuss its mechanism of protecting myocardium. Methods Model of myocardial IRI was established in rats. BMSCs were isolated, cultivated, and transplanted in IRI rats. SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group, IRI group, BMSCs group, and combined group. Rats in combined group received gavage with soothing liver and activating blood Chinese medicine, while rats in other groups received gavage with the same dose of normal saline. After 4 weeks, myocardial cell apoptosis, Bcl-2, and Bax protein expression in myocardial cells were detected by TUNEL method and immunohistochemical method. Results Compared with IRI group, myocardial cell apoptosis index in the combined group and BMSCs group was lower, Bax expression decreased, Bcl-2 expression significantly increased (P<0.01);Compared with BMSCs group, myocardial cell apoptosis index in the combined group was lower;Bax expression decreased, Bcl-2 expression increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Conclusion Soothing liver and activating blood Chinese medicine can inhibit BMSCs transplantation in IRI rat myocardial cell apoptosis, promote myocardial regeneration, and protect myocardial cells.

Objective To evaluate the mechanism of external branch of the superior laryngeal nerve (EBSLN) injury during thyroid surgery as showed by intraoperative neuromonitoring.Methods 70 patients with 109 nerves at risk were enrolled in this study from March 2011 to October 2011.A positive signal is determined by observing contractions of the cricothyroid muscle.The relationship between EBSLN and the upper pole of the thyroid or the inferior constrictor muscle was studied.Results 108 nerves (99.1%) were located successfully,42 of which were visualized (38.9%).55 nerves (50.9%) crossed the superior thyroid artery more than 1 cm apart,while the other 53 nerves (49.1%) went less than 1 cm including 24 nerves(more than 0.5 cm,less than 1 cm) and 29 nerves (less than 0.5 cm) or coursed below the superior pole of the thyroid.The rate of the latter type was significantly elevated in patients with the top to botton diameter of the gland more than 5 cm.One patient suffered from impairing in the production of high tones postoperatively.Conclusions Intraoperative neuromonitoring is useful and helpful in providing instructive information for operations by locating EBSLN.

Objective To evaluate the effects of sevoflurane postconditioning on the oncosis and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in isolated rat hearts and the role of extracellular signalregulated protein kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signal transduction pathway in it.Methods Seventy-two isolated rat hearts perfused in a Langendorff apparatus were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =12 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),myocardial I/R group (group I/R),sevoflurane postconditioning group (group SP),PD98059 vehicle dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group (group DMSO),selective ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 group (group PD),and sevoflurane postconditioning + PD98059 group (group SP + PD).The hearts were subjected to ischemia for 30 min followed by 2 h reperfusion in the other groups except group S.In SP,DMSO and PD groups,the hearts were perfused with K-H solution saturated with 3.0% sevoflurane,DMSO (<0.2%) and PD98059 (20 μmol/L),respectively,for 15 min starting from the end of ischemia until 15 min of reperfusion,and then with plain K-H solution for 105 min.In group SP+ PD,the hearts were perfused with K-H solution saturated with 3.0% sevoflurane and PD98059 for 15 min starting from the end of ischemia until 15 min of reperfusion.Myocardial infarct size and expression of porimin and caspase-8 proteins (by Western blot) were measured at the end of reperfusion.Results Compared with S group,the myocardial infarct size was significantly increased,and the expression of porimin and caspase-8 proteins was up-regulated in the other groups (P < 0.05).Compared with I/R group,the myocardial infarct size was significantly decreased,and the expression of porimin and caspase-8 proteins was down-regulated in group SP (P < 0.05),and no significant changes were found in the other groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Sevoflurane postconditioning can activate ERK1/2 signal transduction pathway and inhibit the oncosis and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes,thus attenuating I/R injury in isolated rat hearts.

Objective To explore the correlation between Th1,Th2,Th17,and Treg cells differentiation and related cytokines in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods Seventy-one patients with active RA were enrolled in this study.They were divided into low,moderate and high disease activity groups according to disease activity score (DAS28).The frequencies of Th1,Th2,Th17,and Treg cells in the peripheral blood of RA patients group (n=71) and healthy conlrol group (n=18) were determined by flow cytometry.T test was used for statistical analysis.Results Significant difference could be detected between the proportions of Th1 [ (6.2±4.5)%],Th17 [ (1.1±0.9)%] and Treg [(1.8±1.2)%] cells in the peripheral blood of RA patients and the control group (P<0.05),and there was correlation between proportions of these three kinds of cell and the DAS28.Conclusion Th1 and Th 17 cells may promote the development of RA disease,but Th2 and Treg cells could prevent further development of RA disease.
