This study was aimed to reveal the roles of biological factors T3, T4 and TSH in the pathogenesis of liver-qi invasion syndrome and liver-qi depression syndrome of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in the body. Thus, we may expound the connotation of conceptpotential stagnation ofqi and blood. Female workers of Jinan and Qingdao were selected as target groups by epidemiological cross-sectional survey. And specially trained investigators were responsible for screening patients referred to criterion on the international diagnostic standards and syndrome diagnosis of PMS. Patients' blood was taken as samples during the follicular phase (6 to 14 days), luteal phase (15 to 23 days), premenstrual phase (24 to 28 days) and the menstrual phase (1 to 5 days), respectively. Blood samples were disposed according to requirements of radioimmunoassay. Single factor analysis of variance was used in the comparison with the level of T3, T4 and TSH in menstrual blood for different time intervals of the case group and the normal group by SPSS 10.0 statistical software. The results showed that T3 levels of patients with either syndrome were significantly reduced during the premenstrual phase and the menstrual phase (P < 0.05). There were no significant changes on the level of serum T4 and TSH before and after the occurrence of the disease. Both of them were significantly increased during each phase of the menstrual cycle. It was concluded that changes of T3, T4 and TSH were one of the mechanisms in disease with liver-qi invasion syndrome and liver-qi depression syndrome. The micro change was the essence ofpotential stagnation of qi and blood, which was the body condition of this disease.

Objective To observe the effects of Liuwei Buqi capsules on CD4+CD25+forkhead box protein 3+(Foxp3+)regulatory T cells(Tregs),helper T cells(Ths)in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Eighty COPD patients admitted into the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2012 to May 2013 were randomly divided into a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)experimental group(40 cases)and a western medicine control group(40 cases);there were 40 research volunteers enrolled as healthy controls. After admission,both the TCM experimental group and western medicine control group were given conventional western medicine comprehensive treatment. Additionally,in the TCM experimental group,Liuwei Buqi capsules were given orally once 3 pills(0.4 g/pill)and twice a day,while in the western medicine control group nifedipine was given,once 10 mg and 3 times a day,30 days constituting one therapeutic course for both groups. BODE evaluation means that the body mass index(B),the degree of airflow obstruction(O),the scores of dyspnea(D)and excercise capacity(E)of COPD patients were evaluated. A spirometer was used to observe the changes in the patient's pulmonary function to detect the dyspnea score. The γ-interferon(IFN-γ),interleukin (IL-4 and IL-17)in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The expression of Treg of peripheral blood was detected by flow cytometry. Results Compared with healthy control group,lung function parameters,IL-4,CD4+CD25+Treg and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg of peripheral blood were increased,while dyspnea score,BODE score,the expressions of IFN-γ,Th1/Th2,IL-17 in serum were decreased significantly in the COPD group(P<0.05 or P<0.01). After treatment,compared with those before treatment in the two groups, the forced expiratory volume in 1 second(FEV1),FEV1/forced vital capacity(FVC),IL-4,CD4+CD25+Treg, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg were all increased,while dyspnea score,BODE score,IFN-γ,Th1/Th2,IL-17 were all decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the peak expiratory flow(PEF)was decreased in western medicine control group and increased in TCM experimental group. After treatment,the comparisons of ratio of FEV1/FVC〔(78.12±14.96)%vs.(67.52±10.39)%〕,BODE score(1.07±0.72 vs. 1.77±0.74),IL-17(μg/L:40.80±8.97 vs. 48.22±6.51) Th1/Th2(1.05±0.23 vs. 1.42±0.21)and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg〔(6.61±2.26)% vs.(5.25±2.03)%〕between the two groups were all of statistical significant difference(all P<0.05). Conclusion Liuwei Buqi capsules can improve COPD symptoms by up-regulating the expressions of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg,IL-4,and down-regulating the expressions of IFN-γ,IL-17 to correct the balance of Th1/Th2 in patients with COPD.

Objective To investigate the effects of Qibai Pingfei Capsules(QPC) on the expression of monoamine neurotransmitters of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor(5-HT) and dopamine(DA) receptors of DA1 and DA5 in the rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) accompanied with depression, and to explore the possible therapeutic mechanism. Methods Ninety male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 6 groups, namely normal group, COPD depression group, QPC group, Venlafaxine group, and QPC plus Venlafaxine group. The rat model of COPD accompanied with depression was established by compound methods of smoking, food deprivation, water deprivation, forced swimming, shaking, and clipping tail. And then the effects of QPC on the lung function and the general characteristics were observed. Furthermore, the mRNA level of 5-HT1AR was determined by real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR), and protein levels of DA-1 and DA-5 in rat hippocampus were assayed by Western blot analysis. Results Compared with the normal group, forced expiratory volume in 0.3 second(FEV0.3), the forced volume capacity(FVC) and FEV0.3/ FVC in the COPD depression group were significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Compared with the COPD depression group, the values mentioned above were restored to different extents in the groups of QPC, Venlafaxine, and QPC plus Venlafaxine(P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, the expression levels of 5-HT1AR mRNA, and DA-1 and DA-5 protein in the COPD depression group were significantly down-regulated, and their levels were also slightly decreased in the treatment groups(P<0.05). Compared with the COPD depression group, the expression levels were up-regulated to various degrees in all of the treatment groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion QPC can increase the mRNA levels of 5-HT1AR and protein levels of DA-1 and DA-5 in the hippocampus of COPD with depression.
