ObjectiveTo comprehensively evaluate the curative effect ofTCM reating type 2 diabetes with three type dialectical therapy by Fuzzy Mathematics.Methods261 cases of 2 type diabetes were divided into three groups by syndrome differentiation,as follows:type of heat with yin deficiency,type of deficiency of both qi and yin,and type of deficiency of both yin and yang,and received corresponding therapies.The course of treatment was 24 weeks,in the first 12 weeks (period 1),on the basis of western medicine treatment,patients of the three groups were respectively treated by qingrungranules,ziyigranule and shuangtiaogranules.In the next 12 weeks (period 2),all patients were only treated by western medicine.The value of FBG,P2BG,HbAlc,TC,TG,BMI of the two periods were comprehensively evaluated by the methods of fuzzy mathematics.ResultsAt the end of period 1,the total effective rate of the type of heat with yin deficiency was 91.38％,the type of deficiency of both qi and yin was 87.16％,and the type of deficiency of both yin and yang was 83.34％; while at the end of period 2,the total effective rate of the three types was 59.18％,48.65％a nd32.65％ respectively.ConclusionThe effective rate was obviously improved in period 1; while in period 2,the effective rate was decreased.

Objective To explore the effects of 2,3,5,4'-tetrahydroxy stilbene-2-β-D-glycoside(TSG)on the over-expression and aggregation of α-synuclein in vitro.Methods TSG in different concentrations was incubated with α-synuclein transgenic COS-7 cells for 24 h.The cell viability was measured by MTT method.The expression of α-synuclein protein was determined by immunocytochemistry and Western blotting method.Results Incubation of TSG at the range of 12.5～200.0 μmol/L with α-synuclein transgenic COS-7 cells for 24 h did not influence cell viability,but a dose-dependently inhibition for the over-expression of α-synuclein protein could be observed in the tests of immunocytochemistry and Western blotting.Conclusion TSG can inhibit the over-expression of α-synuclein protein in COS-7 cells in vitro.

Objective To investigate the effect of high dose mifepristone and high dose progesterone in the treatment of patients with endometrial carcinoma and to explore the possible mechanisms associating with them Methods Thirty untreated patients diagnosed as endometrial carcinoma through dilation and curettage of the uteri were divided into 3 groups at random Each group was given medroxyprogesterone acetate(MPA),(500 mg/day) or mifepristone(MIF),(100 mg/day)or MIF(100 mg/day)+ MPA(500 mg/day)for 5 days respectively On the sixth day, hysterectomy was performed on these patients The endometrial cancer specimen of post hysterectomy was compared with the one of pre administrating The morphologic changes of the endometrial cancer cells were observed through light microscope Immunohistochemistry assay (SP method) was applied to determine the localization and immunoreactive intensity of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), B cell leukemia lymphoma 2 (bcl 2), bcl 2 associated X protein(bax) and CD 44 v6 Results Better differentiation degree and active excretion were observed in all of the post hysterectomy endometrial specimen In the same time, apoptosis of carcinoma cells was observed The most significant changes were seen in the MIF+MPA group In the MPA group,the pre treatment and post treatment expression of PR(2 9?1 1,1 6?0 8),ER(2 8?0 9,1 4?0 9),PCNA(0 84?0 10,0 60?0 12),bcl 2(0 236?0 089,0 157?0 981) and CD 44 v6 (4 6?1 8,2 5?1 9) were all decreased(all P 0 05) In the MIF+MPA group, the expression of PR(3 2?1 0,0 8?0 8),ER(2 7?0 9,0 7 ?0 9 ),PCNA(0 81?0 09,0 25?0 09),bcl 2(0 225?0 091,0 066?0 009)and CD 44 v6(4 5?1 9,2 7?1 6) were all decreased(all P

Objective To observe the effect of extract from Branchlets roses on blood glucose and glucose tolerance in diabetes mice induced by alloxan.Methods Diabetes animal model was established by alloxan.Dividing the model mice into eight groups:model group,water extract high,middle,and low dose (3.70,1.85,and 0.93 g/kg) group,and ethanol extract high,middle,and low dose (2.75,1.37,and 0.70 g/kg) group,and metformin (positive drug,200 mg/kg) group,and normal mice were taken as control group.Drug was ig administered to mice 3 d after molding once daily.Blood glucose test paper was used to determine fasting blood glucose 0,10,20,and 28 d after modeling,and the glucose tolerance test was performed 30 d after modeling.Results The extract of Branchlets roses from all the groups could decrease the blood glucose and improve the glucose tolerance,and showed a certain dose-effect relationship.In all the extracts,the alcohol extract had the best effect,but the effect was not as good as the positive control drug metformin hydrochloride group.Conclusion The extract of Branchlets roses can reduce the blood sugar content of diabetic mice,and improve the glucose tolerance.

Objective:To investigate the anti-fibrotic effect of sirolimus(rapamycin)at the cell level.Methods:The primary cultured rat renal cortical myofibroblasts were divided into two groups,control group and sirolimus 40 mg/L group at each time point.The protein levels of ?-SMA,Col-Ⅰ,fibronectin(FN)were analyzed by Western blot in both the whole cell lysates and supernatant culture media 12 h,24 h and 48 h after incubation,respectively.Real-time quantitative PCR was carried out to measure the levels of procollagen-ⅠmRNA 1 h,2 h,4 h,and 6 h after cell incubation.The activities of gelatinase MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the supernatant from the cultured cell media were assayed by gelatin zymography.Results:(1)Sirolimus had no effect on the expression of ?-SMA of myofibroblasts at differnet time points.(2)The expression of Col-Ⅰin the whole cell lysates both reduced at the end of 24 h and 48 h in sirolimus group significantly [(0.58?0.05)and(0.63?0.18),P

Objective:To develop an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of four phenolic compounds ( monocaffey-ltartaric acid, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid and chicoric acid) in Herba Taraxaci. Methods:The separation was performed on a Ther-mo C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5 μm) with methanol-0. 2％ phosphonic acid as the mobile phase with gradient elution. The de-tection wavelength was 328 nm, the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 and the column temperature was 35℃. Results:The linear range of monocaffeyltartaric acid, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid and chicoric acid was 11.59-115.90 (r = 0.9999), 2.50-24.96(r =0. 9998),2. 27-22. 70(r=0. 9995) and 12. 44-124. 40(r=0. 9998) μg ·ml-1, respectively. The average recovery was 102. 50％(RSD=2. 30％), 99. 29％(RSD=0. 43％), 96. 71％(RSD=0. 78％) and 95. 36％ (RSD=1. 30％), respectively. Conclusion:The method is simple and accurate with good repeatability, which can be used for the quality control of Herba Taraxaci.

Objective To determine the rehabilitation outcome of patients with stroke caused by middle cerebral artery insult. Methods Eighty-three patients were divided into three groups: cortex insult group, basal ganglia insult group and combined group. Activities of daily living (ADL), motor function and walk were assessed by using the Barthel Index, Brunnstrom Stages and walking assessment. Comparisons of all data were carried out among the groups. Results On admission, there were significant differences among the 3 groups in terms of activities of daily living, motor function and walk. The cortex insult group had the highest scores while the combined group the lowest. A comparison among the 3 groups at discharge demonstrated the same results as those on admission. It was shown that all the groups improved significantly at discharge when compared with admission status, indicating that stroke rehabilitation was effective. Conclusion The motor deficit in the combined group was the most severe, but systematic rehabilitation could make functional improvement in the patient. The basal ganglia insult group has the biggest rehabilitation potential. The cortex insult group has the best outcome.
