Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2006;0(06):-
Objective To study the quality control method for Chanshukang granule. Methods TLC and HPLC method were used to identify the Chinese herbal medicines. The determination was carried on HPLC, using Kromasil C18 column (200 mm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m), ethanol-2% glacial acetic acid (40∶60) as mobile phase and detected at the wavelength of 324 nm. Results The Chinese herbal medicines, Radix Angelicae Sinensis, Rhizoma Chuanxiong, Placenta Hominis and Radix Glycyrrhizae Preparata, in granules were identified by TLC. The calibration curve was linear in the range of 0.625~3.750 ?g for ferulic acid. The contents in three batches were 0.054%, 0.037%, 0.042% respectively. The average recovery was 96.2% and RSD=2.37%. Conclusion The TLC method can be used for the quality control of four herbal medicines in the granule. The HPLC method is simple, sensitive, accurate and provides a certain evidence for controlling the quality of Chanshukang Granule.

Objective To investigate the response of multiple myeloma (MM) cells to 8-chloroadenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (8-Cl-cAMP) and the impact of arsenic trioxide (As2O3) on the above reaction.Methods MM-derived cell lines RPMI8226 and U266 were used as in vitro models.Cell apoptosis was evaluated according to cellular morphology and DNA content measured by flow cytometry.Meanwhile,rhodamine 123 (Rh123) staining and flow cytometry assay were used to detect the changes of mitochondrial transmembrane potentials (△ψm) in MM cells before and after the treatment.The synergic effects of 8-Cl-cAMP and As2O3 were evaluated by King' s formula.Results The 8-Cl-cAMP could induce growth inhibition of RPMI8226 and U266 cells in dose and time-related manners.The 8-Cl-cAMP could trigger apoptosis and △ψm collapse in MM cells through cellular morphology and flow cytometry analysis.As2O3 accelerated 8-Cl-cAMP-mediated apoptosis of RPMI8226 cells,but there were few synergic effects observed.Conclusion 8-Cl-cAMP could induce cell proliferation inhibition and apoptosis in MM cells.Mitochondria may be one of targets in 8-Cl-cAMP-mediated apoptosis.Furthermore,As2O3 catalyzes 8-Cl-cAMP-induced apoptosis.

Objective To explore the mechanism of immunologic injury in patients with Tourette's syndrome(TS). Methods The serum level of anti-brain antibody ( ABAb) , antinuclear antibody ( ANAb) , soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and soluble gpl30(sgp130) in patients with TS were analyzed by commercially available ELISA kits,and the titer of anti-streptolysin O ( ASO) in TS and in control was examined with latex enhanced immunoturbidimetry. Results The level of sIL-6R and sgpl30 was significantly elevated in TS compared with control group [(44. 1 ± 15.8)ng/mL vs (30. 3 ± 9. 0) ng/mL and (69. 0 ±24. 6)ng/mL vs (47. 3 ±14. l)ng/mL,P <0. 01 respectively]. ASO titer(250 U/mL) was found higher in TS than that in control(P <0. 01). The positive rates of anti-brain an-tibody and antinuclear antibody in TS were higher than that in control group (66% vs 4% and 53% vs 25% , P <0. 01 respectively). The level of ABAb negatively correlated with sgpl30 concentration( r = 0. 375, P <0. 05 ). Conclusion IL-6 signal transduction might be involved in Tourette's syndrome to lead the function enhancementand start cascade of feedback inhibition, because of elevated levels of slL-6R, sgp130, ANAb and ABAb in serum.Autoimmune-related injuries may potentially explain the pathogenesis of the disease.

Objective To study the effects of the intensive treatment with continuously subcutaneous in-sulin infusion(CSII) in patients with gestational diabetes and the nursing during the treatment. Methods From Jan 2007 to Aug 2008, 42 patients with gestational diabetes underwent continuously subcutaneous insulin infu-sion, and a standard nursing plan of patients was made up before treatment. The efficacy of treatment and nursing were analyzed. Results After using the CSII, the blood glucose of all patients was controlled at normal level after 7.0±1.5d. 88.1% of patients were satisfied with the effect and one patient was dissatisfied with the treatment because of losing the fetus for sever bleeding caused by placenta previa. 40.5% of patients with different degrees of anxiety accepted CSII therapy after psychological care by nurses;In 9.5% of patients the infusion bump a-larmed because of needle blockage or infusion tube bending, it restarted working and ran normally once the needle replaced or bending tube unwinded. 7.1% of patients developed hypoglycemia during CSII and recovered after eating. Conclusions Intensive treatment with CSII in gestational diabetes patients can effectively control blood glucose level The effect can be improved by taking specific nursing measures.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of heat treatment combined with narrow band ultraviolet B(NB-UVB) on cultured normal human melanocytes in vitro.MethodsMelanocytes were isolated from the foreskin of normal human,cullured in vitro,and irradiated with NB-UVB of different doses(20,30,50,70,90,120 and 180 mJ/cm2).Then,MTT assay was performed to evaluate the proliferation and activity of melanocytes to determine the optimal dose of UVB for the next experiment.Melanocytes were classified into 3 groups to be treated with heat at 42 ℃ for 1 hour (heat group),irradiated with UVB at 50 mJ/cm2 (UVB group),or irradiated with UVB at 50 mJ/cm2 followed by heat treatment at 42 ℃ for 1 hour (combination group),daily for 3 successive days; those receiving no treatment served as the control.After 24-hour culture following the last treatment,tyrosinase activity was evaluated with L-dopa as the substrate,melanin content was detected by NaOH assay,and cell cycle stages were determined by flow cytometry.ResultsNB-UVB irradiation decreased the viability of melanocytes in a dose-dependent manner,and the optimum dose of UVB was 50 mJ/cm2.The tyrosinase activity of melanocytes was 0.244 ± 0.018 and 0.310 ± 0.015 respectively in the UVB group and combination group,and increased by 3.8% (P < 0.05) and 31.9% (P < 0.05) respectively compared with the control group (0.235 ± 0.018); the melanin content was 0.201 ± 0.016 and 0.286 ± 0.019,respectively in the UVB group and combination group,and increased by 17.5% (P < 0.05 ) and 67.3% (P < 0.05) compared with the control group (0.171 ± 0.016).In comparison with the control group,the percentage of melanocytes in G1 phase was decreased by 23.94% in the UVB group(P< 0.05) and 33.51% in the combination group(P < 0.05),while that in S phase and G2 phase increased by 15.35% (P < 0.05 ) and 11.93% (P < 0.05),respectively in the UVB group,and 17.76% (P > 0.05) and 16.08% (P > 0.05),respectively in the heat group.ConclusionHeat treatment and NB-UVB can synergistically enhance the tyrosinase activity and accelerate melanogenesis,proliferation and differentiation,of melanocytes.
