Chongqing Medicine 2017;46(1):33-35,39
Objective To synthesize of water-solubility derivant of 6,7,4′- trihydroxyisoflavone(T2 ),to characterize its structure and to evaluate its anti-tumor activity.Methods The sulfonic group(-SO3 H)was grafted to 3'position in loop B of T2 through sulfonation reaction,then strong aqua was added to above production,and obtained a water-solubility elevated compound named T2-SO3 (NH4 )2 through ammoniation.The construction of T2-SO3 (NH4 )2 was characterized by 1 H-NMR,13 C NMR,MS and element analysis.Its activity for killing human breast cancer cells (Hela)was analyzed by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry.Re-sults The two kinds of water-solubility derivant of T2-SO3 H·2H2 O and T2-SO3 (NH4 )2 were obtained through above methods, and their yield rates were 96% and 75% respectively.The biological experiments showed that the anti-tumor activity of T2-SO3 (NH4 )2 was significantly enhanced.Conclusion Compared to T2,T2-SO3 (NH4 )2 exhibit higher biocompatibility and anti-tumor activity with vast biological application prospect.

Sleep deprivation (SD) has been taken as an independent predictor for cardiovascular risks, which was closely related to the increased morbidity and mortality in coronary heart disease (CHD). In this article, after reviewing the impact of modern medical method sleep deprivation on CHD and studies on principle method recipe medicines for preventing and treating CHD, the authors observed the autonomic nerve dysfunction, hormonal metabolism dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction and inflammatory responses after sleep deprivation, which can cause or aggravate CHD. On the basis of the traditional Chinese medicine theories of "heart dominating the blood and vessels and the mind", the authors considered that traditional Chinese medicines can tonify heart and soothe the nerves, reducing all of the risk factors through multi-target and multi-pathway, and improve sleep and decrease the risk factors caused by sleep deprivation, which provides a new idea for the prevention and treatment of CHD.

Asaprimarilyused plasticizerin polyvinyl chloride,d(i2-ethylhexy)lphthalate(DEHP)is extensively used in consumer products,flooring and wall coverings,food contact applications,and medical devices.Because DEHP has been detected in waters,soils and air,and its metabolites have also been detected in human urinary,sufficient evidences show that DEHP is ubiquitous in the environment worldwide.DEHP is already in the blacklist of priority pollutants in water in China.Many researches indicate that DEHP is one kind of endocrine disrupting chemicals in animals,with carcinogenicity,teratogenicity and mutagenicity.Based on the researches and review on DEHP,this paper principally discussed the environmental level,metabolism and biological markers of DEHP,as well as the research progress on human health effects.

Objective To investigate immunological mechanism underlying leflunomide ( LEF ) against experimental allergic encephalomyelitis ( EAE) by studying the effects of LEF on peripheral blood CD28/CTLA-4 costimulatory molecules expression in guinea pig with EAE.Methods 50 adult female guinea pigs were randomly divided into normal control group,low dose group,EAE control group,middle dose group,and high dose group, 10 guinea pigs in each group respectively.Low, medium and high dose group were treated with LEF 10 mg/kg· D, 20 mg/kg· D and 40 mg/kg· D orally, 1 times/day, to the termination of the experiment.The expression of CD28, CTLA-4 were detected by flow cytometry, incidence was recorded at the same time.Results Compared with EAE control group,high dose and middle dose group incubation period were prolonged, progress period were shorten and neurological dysfunction score decreased(P<0.05).Compared with normal control group, the expression of CD28 of EAE control group increased and the decreased expression of CTLA-4 (P<0.05).High, middle dose treatment group compared with EAE control group CD28 down regulated expression (P<0.05), but the expression of CTLA-4 increased(P<0.05).Among the treatment groups, of CD28 molecules with high dose group decreased significantly(P<0.05), the expression of CTLA-4 molecules with high dose treatment groups upregulated significantly (P<0.05).Correlation analysis showed that the EAE control group, the treatment group the CD28/CTLA-4 ratio in peripheral blood and nerve dysfunction score is proportional ( r=0.85, P=0.002; r=0.77, P=0.000).Conclusion LEF can reduce EAE guinea pig neurological symptoms, the better and the higher dose effect.Its mechanism may be through down-regulation of CD28 molecules in peripheral blood, upregulation of the expression of CTLA-4 molecule.so as to reduce the inflammatory response, relieve the clinical symptoms.

BACKGROUND:Structural and functional changes of endothelial cels are the common pathological basis of cardiovascular disease. Severe structural and functional damage of endothelial cels are found in patients with hypertension or coronary heart diseases.
OBJECTIVE:To explore a new treatment method for hypertension from the perspective of vascular endothelial progenitor cels.
METHODS: PubMed and Wanfang databases were retrieved using the keywords “hypertension, EPCs” and approximately relevant 200 English and 100 Chinese literatures were obtained. Forty-nine eligible literatures were screened finaly.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Endothelial progenitor cels have strong differentiation and proliferation capacities. This review may provide a new insight into potential sources of cels for diagnosis and treatment of hypertension.
