Objective:To summarize the allergic mechanism caused by traditional Chinese medicine injection (TCMI) to provide some references for perfecting Good Laboratory Practice(GLP) of TCMI.Method:The related iteratures in data bases at home and abroad were reviewed,and the present experimental research methods about allergies were referred to to have a view of future studies.Result:The allergic mechanism of TCMI was mostly antigen-antibody reaction, part of which was anaphylactoid reaction.The method of the evaluation of allergy caused by TCMI only was animal experiments, but there were still some allergies caused by TCMI after the evaluation with this method.The present experimental research methods indicated that the detection of mediators of inflammation and FCM(Flow Cytometry) could be used to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI.Conclusion:More attention should be paid to allergies caused by TCMI for its complicated mechanism and frequent occurrences in clinic.It may be an effective way to evaluate the allergies caused by TCMI with several methods including in vivo and in vitro.

Objective To study the effects and mechanism of berberine in combination with magnolol and honokiol on the formation of THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells. Methods THP-1 macrophages were induced into foam cells by ox-LDL, and intracellular cholesterol in foam cells was determined by HPLC-MS; the concentration of tumor necrosis factor-α in the supernate of THP-1 macrophages was tested by ELISA and cell-surface CD36 level was assessed byflow cytometry. Results Combined treatment of berberine, magnolol and honokiol significantly reduced cholesterol con-tent in foam cells, also inhibited expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and CD36 in THP-1 macrophage. Conclusion Co-administration of berberine, magnolol and honokiol can inhibit the formation of foam cells probably through, down-regulating the level of tumor necrosis factor-α and CD36.

Objective To learn the current anesthesiologists deployment at the hospital,and to figure out how to measure anesthesiologists deployment.Methods Existing data and expert consultation were used to obtain various indicators,and the current anesthesiologists deployment was analyzed,calculating with the formula the needed number of anesthesiologists.Results Despite the rising demand and resource utilization,anesthesiologists were found in obvious shortage at the hospital.The number of anesthesiologists needed was calculated as 101.4,with a vacancy of 11.4.Conclusion The national health authorities were recommended to revise the standard of anesthesiologists deployment at hospitals.

Aim To study the effect of emodin on IL-8 secretion and NF-?B activation of HT-29 cells,and explore the molecular mechanism of emodin.Methods The cytotoxicity of emodin was assessed by WST;NF-?B activation was detected with co-focal microscopy by immunofluorescence;the production of IL-8 was investigated by ELISA.Results Emodin with the concentration of 10~80 ?mol?L-1 could decrease the mass production of IL-8 Secretion of HT-29 cells stimulated by IFN-?+LPS in a dose-dependent manner.Emodin with various concentrations could inhibit NF-?B activation dose-dependently.Conclusions Emodin inhibited IL-8 secretion and NF-?B activation of HT-29 cells stimulated by IFN-?+LPS.

Background and purpose:Smac/DIABLO was the only apoptosis-related protein that could inhibit IAPs directly and simultaneously.The four amino-residual AVPI(Ala-Val-Pro-lie)in its N-terminal was the very important domain that could stimulate apoptosis.This study investigated the effect of synthetic Smac peptide (SmacN7) on chemotherapy sensitivity of bladder cancer cells.Methods:SmacN7 penetratin peptide was synthesized and delivered into T24 cells.MTT assay was adopted to evaluate the viability of T24 cells induced by low-dosage of MMC. Flow cytometry was applied to analyze the proportion of apoptosis and Western blot was used to detect the expression of XIAP and caspase-3;The activity of caspase-3 was measured and the effect of SmacN7 combined with MMC on T24 cell lines was also determined.Results:SmacN7 penetratin peptide could successfully interact with endogenous XIAP and increase the proportions of apoptosis of T24 cell lines induced by low-dosage of MMC in a dose-and time- dependent manner.An obvious down-regulation of XIAP expression and up-regulation of caspase-3 was identified by Western blot.The activity of caspase-3 in experimental group was significantly increased as compared with that in the control group;Combining the treatment with SmacN7 penetratin peptide,the viability of T24 cells decreased to 55% and 72.7% in 24 hrs and 48 hrs respectively.Conclusion:SmacN7 penetratin peptide could act as a cell-permeable IAP inhibitor,inhibit the proliferation,induce apoptosis and enhance the chemo-sensitivity of bladder cancer cells to MMC. When combined with chemotherapy,it may be a very promising strategy for bladder cancer therapy.

Objective To preliminarily study effects of polysaccharide of Sijunzi Decoction (SD) on the function of intestinal mucosal humoral immune. Methods NIH mice were equally randomized into 4 groups:normal control group,model group,SD polysaccharide (SDPS) group,and SD free proteoglycan (SDFP) group. The intestinal sIgA content was detected by ELISA. The phynotype of Peyer's nodel cells was examined with flow cytometer. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of TLR4 receptor in the intestine. Results Compared to the normal control group,SDPS and SDFP group,the concentration of sIgA was significantly decreased in the model group (P

【Objective】To observe the effect of different active ingredients from Chinese herbal medicine on interleukin 8(IL-8) secretion and Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) mRNA expression in human intestinal tumor cell(HT-29)line.【Methods】Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) was used to detect TLR4 mRNA expression,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to examine IL-8 secretion.【Results】Astragaloside and emodin inhibited TLR4 mRNA expression stimulated by interferon ?(IFN-?),and emodin decreased IL-8 secretion stimulated by IFN-? and lipopolysaccharide(LPS).However,curcumin,naringin and jasminoidin had no effect on TLR4 mRNA expression.【Conclusion】The anti-inflammatory cellular mechanism of emodin may be related to the inhibition of TLR4 mRNA expression stimulated by IFN-?,and to the inhibition of IL-8 secretion stimulated by IFN? and LPS in HT-29 cell line.
