3.Effect of Da Jianzhong Decoction on Cyclooxygenase-2 mRNA and Protein and Calmodulin-dependent Protein KinaseⅡmRNA in Spleen-yang Deficiency Pain Rats
Journal of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2016;(1):71-75
Objective To observe the effect of Da Jianzhong Decoction on cerebral cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA and protein and calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II(CaMKⅡ) mRNA in spleen-yang deficiency pain rats, so as to investigate the therapeutic mechanism of Da Jianzhong Decoction for spleen-yang deficiency pain. Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, and high-and low-dose Da Jianzhong Decoction groups(3, 0.75 g·kg-1·d-1), 10 in each group. Spleen deficiency rat model was established by comprehensive modeling methods. After the rats in various groups were given gastric administration of Chinese medicine for 15 continuous days, rat cervical dislocation was performed for the sampling of the brain tissue. The expression levels of COX-2 mRNA and CaMKⅡmRNA in brain tissue were detected by real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The COX-2 protein expression was determined by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with the normal group, mRNA and protein expression levels of COX-2 in rat brain tissue of spleen-yang deficiency model group were increased(P﹤0.01), and CaMKⅡ mRNA expression was decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, COX-2 mRNA and protein expression levels were decreased(P<0.01) and CaMKⅡexpression was increased(P<0.01) in high-and low-dose Da Jianzhong Decoction groups(P<0.01). Conclusion Da Jianzhong Decoction can suppress cerebral COX-2 mRNA and protein expression, and up-regulate CaMKⅡmRNA expression, which probably contribute to its therapeutic mechanism for relieving the pain.
4.Placebo control and clinical trial of Chinese medicine.
Journal of Integrative Medicine 2010;8(10):906-10
World Health Organization aims to develop safe, effective and practical traditional medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and other complementary and alternative medicine are being recognized in the whole world nowadays. However, the definite effect of Chinese medicine is still in need of scientific research proof. Placebo control is of equal importance to active control and blank control in clinical trial of TCM. This article briefly reviewed the importance of placebo control and commented on its present situation in clinical trial of TCM. This article also brought up the preliminary proposals of placebo application in TCM clinical trial. We should emphasize scientific placebo preparation and good design of placebo-controlled trial, which are directed by International Conference on Harmonization of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use. A good clinical trial project will avoid unnecessary wastes and provide safe and effective treatment for people.

6.The Distinction of the Sense of Justice between Western & Chinese Societies and Its Effect on Regulatory Ethics
Chinese Medical Ethics 1995;0(03):-
This article discusses the variation process of the sense of justice in western and traditional Chinese society,and its effect on regulatory ethics.Western regulatory ethics takes "making use of evil to restrain evil" as its regulatory principle,whose purpose is "to increase goodness by evil",while Chinese regulatory ethics employs "taking goodness in restraining evil" as its regulatory principle.The Chinese regulatory ethics puts morality in the first place,using morality to replace regulatory systems.The distinctions of cultures and the sense of justice between western and Chinese societies cause the different viewpoints in relevant systems and regulations.
7.Circulating microRNA in colorectal cancer
Journal of International Oncology 2012;39(10):769-772
In coloreetal cancer,there are multiple abnormally expressed microRNA (miRNA),suggesting that the miRNA may be involved in tumor development process.Recently,more and more evidence shows that miRNA are more stable in the blood,compared with mRNA,which makes circulating miRNA are helpful to become the non-invasive tumor marker for the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis evaluation in coloreetal cancer.
8.Correlative issues summary about time-to-event evaluation index in clinical observation.
China Journal of Chinese Materia Medica 2014;39(24):4877-4879
The time-to-event index is a kind of common evaluation index. It measures the speed of intervention effect. It is different from other index in research design, source material filling, data checking and statistical analysis. To obtain the time-to-event index, investigators can fill in the table directly and statistical analyst can compute after clinical observation. When filling in the source material or data checking, it is should be noticed that the logical relation between the time-to-event index and the visiting point and between the time-to-event index and the correlative other indicator. When statistical analyzing, it is an important issue how to deal with the cases whose time-to-event index does not appear till the observation period ends. Understanding the difference clearly can make the time-to-event index evaluate the effect of the intervention truly and make the clinical observation results reliable.

9.Inhibitory effects of cytotoxin IL-2-PE40 on corneal allograft rejection
Chinese Journal of Organ Transplantation 2010;31(2):105-108
Objective To examine the inhibitory effect of IL-2-PE40 on the mouse corneal allograft rejection. Methods A mouse corneal graft model was set up by using C57BL/6 mice as donors and Balb/c mice as recipients. In the treatment group, IL-2-PE40 (0.6 μg/g body weight) was intraperitoneally injected from the day of surgery every 12 h until rejection happened. In the control group, the equal volume of PS was injected intraperitoneally at the corresponding time points. The transplanted cornea was observed under slit-lamp twice a week and the transplanted corneal opacity and neovascularization were rated according to Horis grading standards. It led to the determination of rejection response. The survival of transplanted cornea was regarded to be stopped when the rejection occurred. The operated eyes were observed historically on the 10th, 15th, 25th and 35th day after the surgery, and the peripheral blood was collected for measurement of T cell subgroups and T lymphocyte colonies. Results The survival time of cornea in the treatment and control groups was (30.2±2.9) days and (15.1±2.1) days respectively. In the control group, rejection occurred on the 15th day after the surgery, CD4~+ cells started rise right after the surgery and increased most obviously on the 15th day [(63.9±4.0)%] and decreased afterwards. CD4~+ cells in the treatment group were increased slightly [(42.6±4.0)%] on the 15th day. The number of CD4~+ cells in the treatment group was obviously less than in the control group (P<0.01). No significant changes in CD8~+ cells were observed in both groups. The number of T lymphocyte colonies in the control group was increased at the beginning and dropped then. No obvious change was found in the treatment group. The number of T lymphocyte colonies in the treatment group was significantly less than in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion IL-2-PE40 is a highly specific immunosuppressive agent. It can delay the development of corneal graft rejection and reduce the percentage of T-helper cells significantly. It also works to weaken the forming capacity of the peripheral T lymphocyte colonies.
10.Effect of electrical stimulation of cerebellar fastigial nucleus on the contents of monoaminergic transmitters in frontal lobe of rats with depression
Chinese Journal of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2009;31(2):78-81
Objective To investigate the effect of electrical stimulation of cerebellar fastigial nucleus (FN) on the contents of monoaminergie transmitters in frontal lobes of rats with depression, and to explore the pathway and mechanism of electrical stimulation of cerebellum in treating depression. Methods A total of 30 Wistar rats were used tO establish the animal depression model by exposure to chronic stressing circumstances. Electrical stimulation delivered to the left cerebellar FN or left dentate nucleus (DN) for 1 h was used as the intervention. The contents of serotonin (5-HT), noradrenalin (NE) and dopamine (DA) in frontal lobe were determined with fluorospectropho-tometry. Results Compared with normal control group, the contents of 5-HT and NE in bilateral frontal lobes of depression model rats decreased significantly (P < 0. 001). No significant change of all three monoaminergic trans-mitters in normal rats was observed after stimulation of FN or DN (P > 0. 05), but significant increases of 5-HT and NE in right and left frontal lobes were observed in depression model rats after stimulation of FN (P < 0.05, P < 0.001; P <0.05, P <0.01), with the increase in right lobe more significant than in left lobes (P <0.05). In de-pression model rats underwent DN stimulation, significant increase of contents of all three monoaminergic transmitters in frontal lobes was observed. Conclusion ElectrieM stimulation of cerebellar FN can increase the contents of 5-HT and NE in frontal lobes of rats with depression, and this suggest that electrical stimulation might have therapeutic effect to depression.
