To observe the clinical effect of Yisui decoction plus western medicine in treating multiple system atrophy patients, totally 65 patients from China-Japan Friendship hospital during 2008-2012 with complete clinical data and received consecutive traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine treatment for more than 3 months were observed changes of traditional Chinese medicine symptom score, part 1 of unified multiple system atrophy rating scale, orthostatic hypotension before treatment and after 3 months treatment. After 3 months treatment, total effective rate of traditional Chinese medicine symptom was 70.8%. Compared with before treatment, score of part 1 of unified multiple system atrophy rating scale was obviously reduced after 3 month treatment (P < 0.001). Ex- cept swallow function without significant improvement, the remaining projects of unified multiple system atrophy rating scale were im- proved obviously (P < 0.05), of which the most obvious differences were orthostatic symptoms, falls and intestinal function (P < 0.001). Orthostatic hypotension after 1 month treatment and 3 month treatment was obviously better than before treatment (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in orthostatic hypotension between 1 month treatment and 3 month treatment. The research results show that Yisui decoction plus western medicine has a certain effect on improving clinical symptoms of multiple system atrophy patients, especially has a significant effect on orthostatic hypotension, and can maintain a stable clinical effect in a certain period of time.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the role of multidrug resistance-associated protein 2 (MRP2) in the hepatic cell membrane of rats.
METHODSThirty healthy Wistar rats were divided randomly into six groups based on time of administration (2 w, 4 w, 6 w) of 20 mg/kg of sodium arsenite, and their corresponding control groups. Animals were administered every other day. Arsenic content in blood and bile were detected by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and the expression of MRP2 in the membrane of hepatocyte by Western blotting was determined.
RESULTSTotal arsenic levels (including organic arsenic and inorganic arsenic) in blood and bile were significantly higher than control groups (P < 0.05) at all three different time points, especially in 2 w and 4 w group (16.8 and 13.8 fold greater than that in control). The expression of MRP2 increased 36.61%, 32.36%, 12.73% more respectively in 2 w, 4 w, 6 w groups than those in control groups (P < 0.05). The expression of MRP2 was correlated with total arsenic content in bile (r = 0.713, P < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONSBile is one of the major routes for the excretion of arsenite and its metabolites, and the overexpression of MRP2 may play an important role in the bile excretion of them at early stage.
