Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2011;18(6):759-760
Objective To determine the role of C-reactive protein(CRP) in evaluating the activity of ulcerative colitis. Methods Analysis was used to estimate the correlation of CRP with mean platelet volume in 41 patients with active ulcerative colitis and 17 patients ulcerative colitis in re-mission. The effects on disease severity were analyzed subsequently. Results Active UC patients sera CRP level(8.58 ±2.43)mg/L,which level of severe UC CRP (14.38 ±4.46)mg/L,the moderate level of CRP UC(6.68 ±2.35)mg/L,mild level of CRP UC(4.94 ±1.21)mg/L, while the remission stage UC patients CRP levels(3.05 ±0. 88)mg/L. CRP was found to be significantly higher in sera of patients with active ulcerative colitis than that in patients in remission (P < 0.05). The sera level of CRP in inflammatory bowel disease at severe stage were significantly higher than those of medium stage (P < 0. 05). CRP was observed to be slightly increased in sera of patients at mild stage (P < 0. 05). Conclusion The increase of CRP could reflect the severity of active ulcerative colitis.

Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2009;15(1):41-44
Objective To explore the effect of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) on the growth, apoptosis and telomerase activity of Cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939. Methods Cholangiocarcinoma cell line QBC939 was cultured by routine method, and then treated with different concentrations of GABA (1-1000 μmmol/L). The proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle of QBC939 cells was investigated by MTT, Flow cytometry and transmission electron microscopy. The telomer-ase activity of QBC939 cells was examined by modified PCR-ELISA assay. Radioimmunoassay was used to measure the intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate(cAMP) content. Results The dif-ferent concentrations of GABA inhibited the growth of QBC939 cells and promoted the apoptosis. The apop-totic rate of QBC939 cells was increased from 4. 8% to 28. 03%, which had significant difference (P<0.05). It had no effect for distribution of cell cycle. Cell nuclear condensation and apoptotic bodies were seen by transmission electron microscopy. Telomerase activity was inhibited by GABA(0. 82±0. 048 vs 0.56±0. 054, P<0.05). The content of intracellular cAMP was increased with the increase of GABA concentration in a dose-dependent manner [(0. 59±0. 049) nmol/L vs (0. 82±0. 033)nmol/L, P<0. 05]. Conclusion GABA can inhibit the proliferation of QBC939 cells by promoting apoptosis and inhibiting telomerase activi-ty, which may be mediated by the information transmission of post-receptor.

Chinese Journal of Pancreatology 2008;8(4):253-255
Objective To investigate the effect of nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) on the expression of parathyroid hormone receptor (PTH1R) and serum calcium level in rats with acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) rats. Methods 24 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (SO), ANP group, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamat (PDTC, an inhibitor of NF-κB) pretreated ANP group (PDTC), with 8 rats each group. ANP model was induced by injecting 5% sodium taurodeoxyebolate into biliary pancreatic duct. Serum calcium was measured and the expression of NF-κB was determined by western blot and the expression of PTH1R was examined by RT-PCR plus western blot 6 h after ANP induction. Results The NF-κB proteins of bone and kidney tissues in ANP group were 1.53±0.08 and 0.47±0.19, respectively; in PDTC group they were 0.61±0.13 and 0.36±0.06 with significant difference (P<0.05). The PTH1R mRNA expressions of bone and kidney in ANP group were 0.27±0.08 and 0.29±0.06, respectively; the PTH1R proteins expressions were 0.87±0.07 and 0.31±0.09, respectively. The corresponding values in PDTC group were 0.57±0.27 and 0.37±0.11, 1.13±0.17 and 0.68±0.15, respectively, with significant difference (P<0.05). The activity of NF-κB increased in ANP group, the expressions of PTHI R decreased significantly. Compared with ANP group, the activity of NF-κB decreased and the levels of PTH1R and serum calcium increased in PDTC group (P<0.05). Conclusions NF-κB may indirectly down-regulate the expression of PTH1R, which resulting into the hypocalcaemia of ANP. PDTC may alleviate hypocalcaemia in ANP.

Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology 2005;19(1):7-12
AIM To investigate if scallop (Placopecta magellanicus) skirt glycosaminoglycan (SS-GAG) inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) as heparin does so and to clarify its mechanism. METHODS The inhibitory effects of SS-GAG on the proliferation of rat thoracic aorta and abdominal aorta VSMC induced by fetal bovine serum (FBS) or basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) were determined by cell counting, crystal violet staining and MTT colorimetry. The effects of SS-GAG on the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in VSMC proliferation induced by bFGF were evaluated by immunohistochemical technique (LSAB method) and computer image analysis system. RESULTSSS-GAG exerted antagonistic effects on VSMC proliferation induced by 20% FBS and 50 μg·L-1 bFGF at concentrations ranging from 50 mg·L-1 to 200 mg·L-1 and repressed the increasing expression of PCNA and PDGF. CONCLUSION SS-GAG significantly inhibits the proliferation of VSMC, which may be carried out through repression of PDGF and PCNA expression.
