China Pharmacy 2015;(25):3502-3503,3504
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inhibitory effect of astragalosides on proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma SPCA-1 cells. METHODS:After the cells were cultured in 0 (blank control),7.8,15.6,31.2,62.5,125.0 and 250.0 μg/ml for 48 h, MTT method was used to determine cell viability and median inhibitory concentration(IC50)was calculated,and terminal deoxynu-cleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling assay(TUNEL)and flow cytometry were employed to detect apopto-sis. RESULTS:Compared to the blank control,after the cells were cultured in 7.8,15.6,31.2,62.5,125.0 and 250.0 μg/ml as-tragalosides for 48 h,the cell viability was poorer(P<0.01),and IC50 was 61.75 μg/ml;after the cells were cultured in 15.6,31.2, 62.5,125.0 and 250.0 μg/ml astragalosides for 48 h,the apoptosis rate was higher. CONCLUSIONS:Astragalosides have an anti-tumor effect to some degree by a mechanism which may be related to inhibiting cancer cell proliferation and accelerating apoptosis.
2.Anesthetic Intervention of the Neonates at High Risk during Surgical Operation
Herald of Medicine 2001;(5):295-
Objective: To improve the safety of anesthesia of the neonates at high risk during surgical operation. Methods:Before the operation, Anisodamine, Ketamine and Vecuronium bromide were injected intravenously with dosage of 0.06mg, 2mg*kg-1 and 0.08-0.1mg*kg-1, respectively. Tracheal cannula or topical anesthesia using 1% of lidocaine hydrochloride was performed. The tracheal cannulation was performed after administration of sodium hydroxybutyrate and Ketamine by injection with dosages of 50-80 mg*kg-1 and 2mg*kg-1 body weight. Anesthesia apparatus and combinative anesthesia were used. The concentrations of SpO2 were monitored during the operation. A dosage of 1-2mg*kg-1 body weight was used for resuscination of the patients after the operation. Results: A total of 100 cases of operation were performed using the regime of anesthetic intervention described above. A 100% of success rate was achieved and no death occurred during the operation. Conclusion:Significant improvement of safety in anesthesia of the neonates at high risk during surgical operation can be achieved with sufficient preoperational preparation, adequate monitoring during the operation and rational use of anesthetics as well as restrict selection of suitable anesthetical interventions.

Epigenetic modification includes DNA methylation, histone modification, non-coding RNA, etc., and is crucial in determining gene expression. A growing number of recent studies have shown that epigenetic regulation may play a central role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Due to its explicit mechanism and relatively mature technic, DNA methylation has received extensive attention in sepsis-related researches. By examining recent studies on septic DNA methylation mechanism, this review elucidates the key role in sepsis occurrence and progression that DNA methylation plays from etiology, immunology and other aspects, as well as its application potential in the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of sepsis before pointing out the direction for further research.

Objective To investigate the changes and roles of hypoxia inducible factor 1?(HIF 1?) expression in myocardial tissues in rats following severe scald. Methods Male Wistar rats inflicted with 40% TBSA Ⅲ degree scald were used as animal models. HIF 1? protein in myocardial tissues was detected by Western blot and immunohistochemical technique. Results HIF 1? protein expression in rat myocardial tissues increased significantly in the early stage following scald. The difference in HIF 1? level between the left and right ventricles was significant. The increased HIF 1? protein was mainly located in the nucleus. Conclusion HIF 1? protein expression in myocardial tissues of rats can be induced by severe scald and HIF 1? protein expression in the left ventricle is significantly higher than that in the right ventricle. The increased HIF 1? protein in the nucleus can induce downstream cytokine expression.

Dendritic cells(DCs),representing a heterogenous population of professional antigen-presenting cells,are the initiators and modulators of the immune responses.Studies indicate that regulatory T cells contribute to immune nullipotency and immune suppression via cell-cell contact or cytokine secretion.These two kinds of cells may be valuable tools for modulating immunity in the setting of autoimmunity,cancer,chronic viral infections and graft rejection,etc.Here we discuss the current knowledge on the functions of regulatory T cells and denditic cells-based immunoregulation and the applications.

Objective Based the previous studies, the present study was performed to investigate the antagonistic effects of different doses of Astragaloside IV on the immune function of Treg mediated by HMGB1 in vitro and its potential mechanism.Methods CD4+CD25-T cells isolated from the spleens of male BABL/c mice by magnetic beads were seeded on 48-well cell culture plates and were randomly divided into four groups as follows(12 holes per group). Normal control group: CD4+CD25-T cells were cultured merely. Treg group: Tregs(100μl) and CD4+CD25-T cells were co-cultured in ratio of 1:10. HMGB1+Treg group: Tregs(100μl) stimulated by HMGB1(1μg/ml) for 72 h and CD4+CD25-T cells were co-cultured in ratio of 1∶10. HMGB1+AST IV+Treg group: Tregs(100μl) stimulated by HMGB1(1μg/ml) and AST IV(100μg/ml)for 72 h were co-cultured with CD4+CD25-T cells in ratio of 1:10. CD4+CD25-T cells and supernatants were again collected on post-culture 72 hour. The proliferation of CD4+CD25- T cells was analyzed by MTT test, the activity of NFAT and the contents of cytokines of IL-2 released into supernatants were also determined by means of ELISA. Results When CD4+CD25-T cells were co-cultured with Tregs, the cell proliferation(0.166±0.039) and the levels of NFAT(0.156±0.035) and IL-2(2.38±0.58) in supernatant were markedly decreased as compared with those in the control group(P<0.01). However, the contrary results were found when CD4+CD25-T cells were co-cultured with Treg stimulated by HMGB1. Compared with those in the(HMGB1+Treg) group, the contrary results were showed with a dose-dependent in the(HMGB1+ASTⅣ+Treg) group.Conclusion ASTⅣcan rivalry the effects of HMGB1 on immune function of Treg in vitro, this result indicate that ASTⅣhas the therapeutic action on inflammation promoted by HMGB1.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the anti-shear force,stability and plasticity of reconstruction plate implantation,and to investigate its role in treating acetabular fractures complicated by free bone graft in the joint.METHODS:A computer-based online search of Science Direct and Ei databases (1960-01/2009-10) was performed for related English articles with the keywords of "acetabular fractures,modified ilioinguinal approach,reconstruction plate".In addition,CNKI and CBM database (1994-01/2009-10) were searched for related Chinese articles with the same key words in Chinese.Moreover,related works were manually searched.Studies regarding reconstruction plate implantation in treating acetabular fractures were included,including basic and clinical experiments.RESULTS:Acetabular top is weight loading region of human body,and the fracture should be reducted by the operation.Prior to reconstruction plate for acetabular fracture fixation,bone hook,and Kirschner wire can be used for temporary fixation,and the plate bending angle should be adjusted to accordant with lateral posterior wall or medial anterior wall of the acetabular top,followed by screw threading for fracture fixation.In addition,the screw entrance angle is very important.If the fixation of one plate is not satisfactory,one or two cancellous bone screw or Kirschner wire can be used to enhance the fixation.But the Kirschner wire tail should be bended to prevent dislocation into the pelvic cavity.Moreover,additional plate can be used for further fixation.Reconstruction plate fixation has advantages of anti-shear force,high stability and plasticity,which fully adapt the special appearance of acetabulum.Moreover,the incidence of postoperative plate loosening and breakage is low,and the satisfaction is high.Free bone blocks can be temporarily fixed by Kirschner wire,followed by reconstruction plate fixation.CONCLUSION:Reconstruction plate fixation has good clinical effect and few complications in treating acetabular fractures complicated by free bone blocks in the joint.
