OBJECTIVETo explore Chinese medical theory of Fei and Dachang being interior-exteriorly correlated by observing changes of inherent immune response and acquired immune response in the lung tissue and the intestinal tissue of ulcerative colitis (UC) model rats and the intervention of Chinese compounds (CM).
METHODSSeventy rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, i.e., the normal control group (n = 10), the model group (n = 15), the treatment 1 group (n = 15, treated from Fei), the treatment 2 group (n = 15, treated from the intestine), and the Western medicine (WM) group [n = 15, treated with Sulfasalazine (SASP). Except those in the normal control group, the UC rat model was prepared by allergizing colon mucosa combined with TNBS-alcohol (50%) enema, and then intervened by medication (treated with CM complex prescription of treatment from lung, CM complex prescription of treatment from intestine, and SASP). After intragastric administration for 4 weeks, rats were sacrificed and samples taken. The expression of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and IL-8 contents in the lung tissue, the intestinal tissue, and the serum were detected by radioimmunoassay. Serum MedCAM-1 contents were detected using ELISA. Changes of the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), neutrophil migration inhibition factor (MIF), mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MadCAM-1) mRNA in the lung tissue and the intestinal tissue were detected by real time PCR.
RESULTSCompared with the normal control group, the expression levels of TNF-α, TLR4 mRNA, IL-8, MIF mR- NA, and MadCAM-1 mRNA obviously increased in the model group (P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression levels of TNF-α, TLR4 mRNA, IL-8, MIF mRNA, and MadCAM-1 mRNA obviously decreased in the treatment 1 and 2 groups (P < 0.01). The expression of MadCAM-1 mRNA in the intestinal tissue was obviously higher in the model group than in the normal control group (P < 0.01), while the expressions of TNF-α and NF-κB mRNA was obviously lower in the model group than in the normal control group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Compared with the model group, the expression of MadCAM-1 mRNA all significantly deceased in each treatment group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Serum TNF-α contents were higher in the model group than in the normal control group (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, serum TNF-α contents could be lowered in the treatment 1 and 2 groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONSThe main mechanisms of the intestinal injury in this UC model might be related with activation of acquired immune response, accompanied with lowered functions of inherent immune response. The main mechanisms of the lung injury in this UC model might be related acquired immune response and inherent immune response. Treatment from Fei and treatment from Dachang both could obviously improve the immunodissonance of Fei and Dachang, indicating the special relation between the lung tissue and the intestinal tissue, thus providing experimental evidence for Chinese medical theory of Fei and Dachang being interior-exteriorly correlated.

OBJECTIVETo assess the clinical feasibility of diagnosing and staging liver fibrosis by apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC).
METHODSTotally, 43 patients (mean age 29.3 years) with chronic hepatitis by liver biopsy and 7 healthy controls (mean age 39.9 years) underwent liver diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) with four b values: 0, 200, 500, and 1000 s/mm2 respectively. The liver fibrosis was staged according to Ishak fibrosis stage. The ADC value of liver fibrosis patients and healthy controls was compared. The correlation of ADC value and liver fibrosis staging was analyzed.
RESULTThe histological staging showed 8 stage 1 patients, 10 stage 2 patients, 6 stage 3 patients, 9 stage 4 patients, 8 stage 5 patients and 2 stage 6 patients. The mean ADC value of liver fibrosis patients was significantly lower than that of healthy controls except for stage 1 group (P < 0.05). There was a negative correlation between liver fibrosis staging and ADC value (r = -0.697 with b=500 s/mm2, P < 0.01). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of ADC value of advanced liver fibrosis (Ishak stage F3 and higher) showed that area under curve = 0.913, 0.825, and 0.794 with b = 500, 1000, and 200 s/mm2, respectively (95% confidence interval: 83.6%-99.0%, 70.7%-94.3%, 66.5%-92.4%; P < 0.05). When b value was 500 s/mm2, the sensitivity (84%) and specificity (80%) of DWI for diagnosis of advanced liver fibrosis were the highest.
CONCLUSIONDWI is proved to be a useful clinical tool in the quantitative evaluation of liver fibrosis and in the prediction of the process of liver fibrosis with the recommendable b value (500 s/mm2).
