Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of compound hypoglycemic Yuye oral liquor combined with metfo-ma and glimepiride in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus ( deficiency of both Qi and Yin) . Methods:Totally 80 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group with 40 each, both groups were treated with met-formin hydrochloride tablets and glimepiride tablets, the treatment group was given compound hypoglycemic Yuye oral liquor additional-ly, and the treatment duration was 12 weeks. At the end of the treatment, fasting plasma glucose( FPG) , postprandial 2 hours plasma glucose(2hPG), hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM ) syndrome in the two groups were compared. Re-sults:In both groups, FPG, 2hPG and HbAlc were decreased after the treatment, and the decrease in the treatment group was more notable than that in the control group with statistically significant difference (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). As for TCM syndrome, the score in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group with statistically significant difference (P<0. 01). The clinical efficien-cy in the treatment group was 47. 5%, that was 22. 5% in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0. 05). Conclusion:Compound hypoglycemic Yuyeoral liquor can reduce the blood glucose in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients( deficiency of Qi and Yin) , and the improvement of clinical symptom is striking with good safety and clinical application value.

Objective To study the effects of ischemic postconditioning and ischemic preconditioning on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury following middle cerebral artery occlusion in rats.Methods A reversible focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was modeled using middle cerebral artery occlusion. Thirty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into three groups (n = 10 in each group) : a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion group, an ischemic postconditioning group and an ischemic preconditioning group. The impairment of neurological function was scored and the infarct volume, the activity of superoxide dismutase and malondiadehyde (MDA) content were measured after the operation.Results In the ischemic postconditioning and preconditioning groups the neurological function was better and the infarction volume was significantly smaller compared with the model group. In the preconditioning group both infarction volume and neurological function were significantly better than in the postconditioning group. In the brain tissues of the preconditioning and postconditioning groups MDA content was lower, while the activity of superoxide dismutase was significantly higher than in the model group.Conclusions lschemic postconditioning can attenuate pathological injury induced by focal cerebral ischemia and repedusion. The neuroprotective effect induced by ischemic preconditioning is stronger than that induced by ischemic postconditioning.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the masculinizing effects of progesterone ( PRO) exposure at different concentrations on the morphology of female mosquitofish (Gambusia affinis).Methods Immature female G.affinis individuals were put into static water with 0.5, 5, 50 and 500 nmol/L progesterone (n=56), respective-ly.In addition, control group and parallel groups were set up .After 42-day-long exposure, we measured four main indexes of the G.affinis:the body length, body weight, morphological changes in the anal fin 3rd fin and the 14, 15 and 16 verte-bral ribs.We also observed the state of ovarian development .Results The body lengths (BL) of experimental groups ex-posed at concentration of 50 and 500 nmol/L progesterone for 42 d showed significant differences , respectively ( P<0.01 for both), when compared with those of the control group .The body weights (BW) of experimental groups exposed to pro-gesterone at all concentrations were significantly or very significantly decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Only the proges-terone at 5 nmol/L concentration showed significant effect on the body health index (CF) (P<0.05).The section number (FJ) of the anal fin 3rd fin, the section length (FL)and the widest portion width (FW)in the experimental groups had sig-nificant difference (P<0.05), respectively, showing significant changes in morphology after the exposure to 500 nmol/L progesterone .However , there was no significant difference between the values resulted by progesterone in other concentra -tions (P>0.05).When exposed to 500 nmol/L PRO, the L, D and L:D values of the 14th, 15th and 16th vertebral ribs of the female G.affinis had very significant difference ( P<0.01 for all ) , respectively , indicating significant changes of morphological masculinization .Histological examination revealed that the developmental status of the ovaries of G.affinis in the experimental groups were to different degrees inhibited , and the nuclei appeared swelling in stage II and III oocytes . Conclusions The results of this study indicate apparent masculinizing effects of progesterone on immature female mosquit -ofish.

Objective To study the safety and efficacy of low dose Peginterferon-alpha-2a (PEG-INF-α-2a) combined with Ribavirin treating chronic hepatitis C in renal transplant recipients.Methods A total of 13 cases of HCV hepatitis were randomly divided into treatment and control groups.Seven cases in treatment group were given PEG-INF-α-2a (90 μg/week) and ribavirin (600mg/day) for 16 to 48 weeks,and the rest 6 cases in control group were subjected to general liver protection and anti-inflammatory treatment. All patients were followed up for more than 2 years.Results There were 5 cases getting early response in treatment group for 16 weeks,including four cases of complete response and no non-effects response patients. In 4 cases voluntarily receiving treatment for 48 weeks,1 case had facial muscle myalgia and increased Cr level at 35th week,humoral graft rejection was confirmed pathologically,and the treatment was terminated; 1 case had recurrence of HCV RNA replication and PEG-INF-α-2a was withdrawn at 38th week.As results,5 patients in the treatment group obtained complete response after two years,including 2 cases whose HCV-IgG had got negative,HCV RNA replication was significantly lower than in the control group,and the average Cr higher than in control group (P＞ 0.05). There were adverse reactions during this treatment protocol: fever,muscle myalgia,agranulocytosis, anemia and humoral graft rejection.Conclusion The efficacy of low lose PEG-INF α-2a combined with ribavirin is definite in the treatment of chronic HCV hepatitis in kidney transplant recipients.The 16-week treatment duration is reasonable.It is remarkable that PEG-INF-α-2a may cause humoral graft rejection and Cr crawling.

Objective To investigate low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR)gene mutation in familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) patients. Methods The proband was given clinical diagnosis of homozygous FH based on marked features and blood lipid tests results. After apoB100R3500Q mutation was excluded, the promoter region and all of the 18 exons of LDLR gene were amplified by touch-downpolymerase chain reaction (PCR). The PCR products were analyzed by single-strand conformationalpolymorphism (SSCP). The PCR products with abnormal single strands were sequenced directly. Thesecondary structures of the mutational and wild type proteins were analyzed and compared byANTHEPROT5.0, and then the tertiary structures of the mutant and wild type LDLR were predicted atSWISS MODEL homepage online. Results A homozygous mutation A606T at exon 13 of the patients wasfound by SSCP and confirmed by DNA sequencing. GOR Ⅰ method in ANTHEPROT5.0 indicates that therandom coils and turns would replace some helixes at the mutation site. The online prediction from theSWISS MODEL homepage indicates the backbone structure of the mutant LDLR has no difference from thewild type one. Conclusion The results suggest the A606T mutation of LDLR gene is the cause of the FH inthis pedigree.

To identify the structure of three related substances in potassium sodium dehydroandrographolide succinate (PSDS), an HPLC preparation method was used to separate the impurities. These main impurities were identified using LC-ESI/TOFMS, LC-ESI/MSn, NMR, UV and IR. One of the main impurities was a hydrolyzed and oxidized product of PSDS, which has not been reported previouely. The other two impurities were hydrolyzed products of PSDS after losing different succinic acids. The results indicate that PSDS can be easily hydrolyzed and oxidized. It should be stored at cool and dry places.
