Chinese Journal of Biochemical Pharmaceutics 2017;37(1):18-22
Objective To study the anti-aging effect of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia (PTS). Methods The effects of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia on oxygen free radicals were investigated by the methods of scavenging hydroxyl radical, superoxide radical and DPPH oxygen free radicals in vitro. The photoaging model of mice skin was established to observe the effect of total saponins of Polygala tenuifolia on mouse skin pathology. Results In the experiment of antioxidation in vitro, the total saponins of Polygala tenuiflora significantly scavenged hydroxyl free radicals (P<0.05, P<0.001) and superoxide radical (P<0.01) at 6.0 and 12.0mg/mL, DPPH free radicals (P<0.001). In the light aging experiment, the light aging model of mice skin was established successfully in group B (model + medium tea oil). Compared with group B, the density of the skin epidermis in D group (30 min before irradiation, 6mg/mL PTS) was thickened, the elastic fibers were arranged uniformly and tightly, the collagen fibers proliferated significantly and densely, and the inflammatory cells infiltration was not found. The treatment effect was most remarkable in group G (30min after irradiation, PTS 12mg/mL PTS), and the skin of the mice was thickened, the elastic fibers were evenly arranged, the collagen fibers had some hyperplasia, evenly distributed, and there was no infiltration of inflammatory cells, which had significant therapeutic effect. Conclusion The total saponins of Polygala tenuifoliahas significant antioxidant activity and anti - light aging effect.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of Tiaozhi Decoction for the treatment of coronary heart disease induced stable angina complicated with hyperlipemia, and to observe its effect on serum inflammatory factors. Results One hundred qualified patients were evenly randomized into treatment group and control group. Both groups were given conventional western medical treatment with reference to Guide for Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Stable Angina, and additionally, the control group was given oral use of Simvastatin and the treatment group was given Tiaozhi Decoction orally. The treatment of the two groups covered 8 weeks. Before and after treatment, blood lipid levels of total cholesterol ( TC) , triglyceride ( TG) , low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) , high- density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-C) , apolipoprotein A (ApoA) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) were observed. The frequency of angina pectoris attack and the dosage of Nitroglycerin Tablets per week in both groups were recorded during the treatment. Therapeutic effect on lowering blood lipid and on improving electrocardiogram was evaluated after treatment. Serum levels of hypersensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), homocysteic acid (Hcy), adiponectin (APN), and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) were detected before and after treatment. Results(1) The results of Ridit analysis showed that the treatment group had better therapeutic effect on lowering blood lipid and on improving electrocardiogram than the control group ( P<0.05) . ( 2) After treatment, TG, HDL-C, ApoB and ApoA levels were much improved in the treatment group compared with those in the control group (P<0.01) . ( 3) The frequency of angina pectoris attack and the dosage of Nitroglycerin Tablets per week were reduced in the treatment group compared with those in the control group (P<0.01) . (4) After treatment, the treatment group had lower hs-CRP, IL-6, Hcy and ox-LDL levels, and higher APN level than the control group (P<0.01) . Conclusion Tiaozhi Decoction is effective for the treatment of coronary heart disease induced stable angina complicated with hyperlipemia through improving lipid metabolism and reducing angina pectoris attack, and the mechanism may be related with the regulation of inflammatory factors.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on inflammatory response and the changes of serum inflamma-tory mediator caused by cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB)in cardiac valve replacement surgery.Methods 30 patients scheduled for cardiac valve replacement were randomly divided into two groups:experimental group(n=15)and control group(n=15).For the experimental group,dexmedetomidine was infused intravenously with the dose of 2.0μg·kg-1 ·h-1 after induction of anesthesia. In control group,normal saline was given instead of dexmedetomidine.Blood samples were taken from radial artery in each of the following five time points:after induction of anesthesia(T1 ),the beginning of CPB(T2 ),after beginning of CPB 40 min(T3 ),after the termination of CPB 2 h(T4 )and 24 h(T5 )for determination of TNF-α、IL-6、IL-10.Results The concentration of TNF-α、IL-6、IL-10 levels showed no significantly difference between the two groups before CPB(P>0.05).But serum TNF-α、IL-6 levels of ex-perimental group were significantly lower and IL-10 were significantly higher than control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01)at the time points of T3~T5 .All biomakers rose significantly at the time of T3 and T4 in both groups(P<0.05 or P<0.01).At the time of T5 IL-6、IL-10 returned to preoperative levels(P>0.05)while TNF-αremained heigh level(P<0.05 or P<0.01)in both groups. Conclusion dexmedetomidine can regulate the release of the serum inflammatory mediator which suggest that dexmedetomidine may alleviate the systemic inflammatory reaction resulting from cardiopulmonary bypass in cardiac valve replacement surgery.

Objective To study the value of transfer constant(Ktrans)derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) for quantitative evaluation of Ki-67 labeling index (Ki-67 LI) in glioma. Methods Twenty patients with glioma who underwent DCE-MRI and operation were retrospectively reviewed. The Ktrans value and Ki-67 LI were acquired and correlated using the Spearman correlation test. Also, the Ktrans values were compared between high(larger than 10%)and low(no more than 10%)Ki-67 LI group with Mann-Whitney U test, receiver operating characteristic curves was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value. Results The Ktrans value(0.0165 to 0.8048, median 0.1252)was significantly associated with Ki-67 LI(5%to 50%, median 20%) (r=0.721,P<0.001), and the Ktrans value was significantly higher in high Ki-67 group(0.0810 to 0.8048, median 0.1810)than that in low Ki-67 LI group(0.0165 to 0.1456, median 0.0697)(Z=-3.209, P=0.001). The most predictive Ktrans value differentiated high Ki-67 LI and low Ki-67 LI with an area under the curve(AUC) of 0.945 at a sensitivity of 92.3% and specificity of 85.7%. Conclusion Ktrans value could be used for quantitative evaluation of Ki-67 LI in glioma.

In the presence of hydrochloric acid, tetraethoxysilicane was hydrolyzed and formed silica sol. Non-labeled immunosensor was fabricated by droping the mixture solution of the silica sol and antibody of aflatoxin B_1 on the surface of glassy carbon electrode. In this work, a Fe(CN)_6~(3-/4-) phosphate buffer solution) was employed as base solution for investigating cyclic voltammetry(CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic(EIS) performances of the sensor, respectively. The experimental results t indicated that because of the complex formed by the immunoreaction hindered the diffusion of Fe(CN)_6~(3-/4-) on the electrode surface, the redox peak current of the immunosensor in CV obviously decreased, and its electron transfer impedance linearly) increased with increasing the concentration of aflantoxin B_1(AFB). When the medium acidit and incubation) time were pH 6.5 and 20 min, respectively, the biggest electron transfer impedance changed value before and after the immunoreaction was obtained. Under the optimal conditions, a linear range to concentration of aflatoxin B_1 was 1-10 μg/L with a detection limit of 0.1 μg/L(S/N=3). Proposed method is of high sensitivity and stability, it has been successfully applied to determine AFB_1 in maize, rice and peanut.
