Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2012;47(12):956-959
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mechanism that cucurmosin (CUS) induces the apoptosis of human pancreatic cancer cell line CFPAC-1. METHODS: The inhibition effect of cucurmosin on CFPAC-1 cell was detected by MTT assay. The apoptosis was observed by transmission electron microscope. The cell cycle and apoptosis rate were analyzed by flow cytometry. The expressions of caspase-3 and bcl-2 protein were determined by Westernblot. RESULTS: After CFPAC-1 cells were treated with cucurmosin of 0.03125, 0.0625,0.125,0.25,0.5, 1 and 2 μmol · L-1 for 24,48 and 72 h, the proliferation of CFPAC-1 cells was inhibited in a time- and dose- dependent manner(P<0.05). After CFPAC-1 cells were treated with 1 μmol · L-1 cucurmosin for 72 h, typical apoptosis changes were observed under transmission electron microscope. Compared with control group, more cells were arrested at G0/G1 phases (P<0.05) and fewer cells were at S phases(P<0.05). CUS decreased the speed of cell-cycle progression from G0/G1 phase into S phase. After CFPAC-1 cells were treated without(control) or with cucurmosin of 0.062 5,0.25 and 1 μmol · L-1 for 72 h, the apoptosis rates of CFPAC-1 cells were (0.33±0.37)%, (19.26±1.49)%,(37.13±2.07)% and (55.64±2.91)%, respectively. The expression of caspase-3 was elevated, whereas the expression of Bcl-2 was lessened gradually. CONCLUSION: Cucurmosin induces the apoptosis of pancreatic cancer CFPAC-1 cells through up-regulating the expression of caspase-3 and down-regulating the expression of bcl-2.

A high active soybean isoflavone glucoside hydrolase-producing mould strain was isolated from spirit qu. Its optimal hydrolase-producing conditions were as follows: 2.5% wheat bran as carbon source, 1% NaNO3 as nitrogen source, initial pH7. 0, culture medium volume 40mL/250mL, inoculating quantity 8% , culture temperature 30℃, revolutions 160r/min and culture time 84h. The enzyme activity reached 82 U/mL. Cu2+ can inhibit Absidia sp. R strain from producing the hydrolase, the influence of other metal ions was not remarkable on it.

The accurate medical treatment is based on the information of the genome, which is the best treatment for the patients. Population pharmacokinetic study can be formulated according to the individual differences of patients to the dose, in the accurate medical model which has a unique advantage. At present, there are many problems such as adverse drug reaction in Chinese traditional medicine, and it is necessary to introduce a group of medicine on the basis of precise medical treatment. However, due to the different characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine and chemical medicine, it is necessary to combine the population pharmacokinetics, genetics and statistical methods to establish a research method which is in line with the characteristics of Chinese medicine. The key scientific problem is to make clear the active components of Chinese medicine metabolism of the drug metabolic enzyme gene, and pay attention to the analysis of the polymorphism of the overall role of drug metabolism enzymes in the human body. Clear key scientific issues and break through the bottleneck, so as to achieve the precise medical treatment, to international.

Evidence body is defined as an evidence complex incorporating the evidence obtained from various research methods and various resources. As one of common parenterally administered Chinese medicines, Shuxuetong's safety drew high concern from doctors. However, we only have grasped several but less systematic evidence on the safety of Shuxuetong. To build a safety evidence body of Shuxuetong injection. Review and evaluate the evidence related to the safety of Shuxuetong injection after accumulating, searching and classfying related literature. Accoeding to levels of evidence from high to low, the evidence related to the safety of Shuxuetong injection was classified as following: the evidence from a long-term, prospective, large-sample-size and intensive hospital monitoring study was the strongest; the evidence of hospital information system (HIS) data analysis; the evidence of spontaneous reporting system (SRS) data analysis; the evidence of adverse drugreactions (ADRs)/adverse drug events (ADEs) reported in systematic evaluation, ADRs case report, toxicological tests, pharmacological tests were weakest. Based on the evidence body, Shuxuetong Injection was proved to be safe, and its ADRs were mainly allergic reactions, and more often happened among the old patients.

The compatibility of traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) formulae containing enormous information, is a complex component system. Applications of mathematical statistics methods on the compatibility researches of traditional Chinese medicines formulae have great significance for promoting the modernization of traditional Chinese medicines and improving clinical efficacies and optimizations of formulae. As a tool for quantitative analysis, data inference and exploring inherent rules of substances, the mathematical statistics method can be used to reveal the working mechanisms of the compatibility of traditional Chinese medicines formulae in qualitatively and quantitatively. By reviewing studies based on the applications of mathematical statistics methods, this paper were summarized from perspective of dosages optimization, efficacies and changes of chemical components as well as the rules of incompatibility and contraindication of formulae, will provide the references for further studying and revealing the working mechanisms and the connotations of traditional Chinese medicines.
