AIM: It is found that some active priciples of ginseng can enhance and activate body immune system, and have many bioactivities such as anti-tumor, anti-aging and anti-radiation. This study examined the effect of ginsenoside-Rh2 (GS-Rh2) on proliferation and apoptosis in human myeloid leukemia cell strain HL60, and analyzed the dose- and time-dependent manners of GS-Rh2. METHODS: Experiments were performed at the Department of Clinical Laboratory of Jilin Medical College from July to August in 2006. ①Rh2 was purchased from Hongjiu Biotech Co., Ltd. (batch number 050801), and prepared into 50 g/L stock solution by dissolving in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer saline. The HL60 cell strain was purchased from Shanghai Institute of Cell Biology of Chinese Academy of Sciences. ②HL60 cells in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated into 3?108 L-1 cell suspension. After the cells were cultured for 6 hours, 100 ?L GS-Rh2 at different concentrations (5,10,20,40,80 mg/L) was added respectively. After the cells were administrated for 48 hours, cell inhibition ratio (IR) was evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was worked out. HL60 cell was acted with this concentration for different time (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours), cell inhibition ratio (IR) at different time points was evaluated by MTT colorimetric assay, and compare it to the control. After the IC50 of GS-Rh2 acted for 48 hours, HL60 cells were observed with an inverted microscope. HL60 cell was stained by Giemsa, and the typical apoptosis cells were discovered. RESULTS: ①Dose-effect relationship: When the concentration of GS-Rh2 was 5,10,20,40 mg/L, the IR of GS-Rh2 to the growth of HL60 cells was increased gradually in obviously dose-dependent manner. The IR was similar between 80 mg/L and 40 mg/L. After the cells were administrated for 48 hours, the IC50 value was 13.0 mg/L. ②Time-effect relationship: After the concentration of IC50 of GS-Rh2 (13.0 mg/L) acting on HL60 line at different time points (6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours), cell IR was increased gradually (F=9.32,P

ObjectiveTo observe the influence of calcium - sensing receptor (CaSR) on Fas/Fas ligand (Fas L) pathway during anoxia/reoxygenation (A/R)- induced cardiomyocytes apoptosis in neonatal rat. MethodsSingle cells were dissociated from minced hearts of 2 - day - old Wistar rats with a 0. 25％ solution of crude trypsin and then cultured as monolayers at a density of 5 x 104cells/cm2 in DMEM medium equilibrated with humidified air containing 5％ CO2 at 37C. Three days after the cells were seeded, the cultured cardiomyocytes were randomly divided into three groups. ( 1 ) control group: cardiomyocytes were continuously cultured for 26 hours in DMEM medium.(2) A/R group: cardiomyocytes underwent anoxia for 2 hours and reoxygenation for 24 hours.(3) GdCl3 group: 300μmol/L GdCl3 was added to the culture medium at the beginning of reoxygenation. Apoptosis of cardiomyocytes was assessed by flow cytometer and morphological alterations were observed with transmission electron microscope.The expression of CaSR, Fas and Fas L were analyzed by Western blot.Results The result of flow cytometer showed that cardiomyocytes apoptosis was 12. 18％ ± 1.54％ in A/R group,and was higher than that in the control group (P ＜0. 01 ). At the same time, mitochondrial cristae dissolution and disappearance could be detected. Compared with A/R group, GdCl3, a specific activator of CaSR, further enhanced cardiomyocytes apoptosis to 20. 25％ + 2. 87％ ( P ＜ 0. 01 ), along with an increment in CaSR, Fas and Fas L expressions ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). ConclusionCaSR is closely involved in cardiomyocytes apoptosia during anoxia/reoxygenation. CaSR could induce apoptosis of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes through Fas/Fas L receptor pathway.

Objective To observe efficacy and safety of long-term Statins treatment in elderly patients aged over 80 years,and to provide clinical evidence for the rational use of Statins.Methods 224 patients aged 80 years and over were divided into two groups:Statin group given Statins (n=107),and control group not given Statin (n=117).The serum levels of total cholesterol (TC),lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) were measured,and liver and renal function,alanine aminotransferase (ALT),creatine phosphokinase (CPK) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) were tested.Results Pretreatment levels of TC and LDL-C levels were (4.6 ± 1.0) and (2.6 ± 0.8) mmol/L and were decreased to (4.3±0.9) and (2.4±0.6) mmol/L after 1 year treatment (t=3.535,3.448,both P＜0.05).The target rate in statin group for LDL C was 35.5 ％ in patients at very high risk.There were no significant differences in levels of ALT,CK and eGFR between pre-and post-treatment in both two groups [(20.2±9.2) U/L vs.(21.4±12.1) U/L,(86.5±53.9) U/L vs.(86.6±67.5) U/Land (53.1±17.3) ml/min vs.(51.9±18.0) ml/min,all P＞0.05].Compared with pre-treatment,1 year treatment showed that glucose level was increased [(5.9± 1.0) mmol/L vs.(6.0± 1.0) mmol/L,t=2.287,P＜0.05].Conclusions Long-term Statin treatment in elderly patients is safe and effective.We should correctly administer statin drugs,and closely monitor the safety indicators.
