[Method] To analyze the specificity about fire-evil invading lung for cough cases during the Qing Dynasty and Modern Times, with the basic theory of TCM and the discussion of past dynasties. [Results] Lung covering other viscera, fire flaming upward,cough easily caused by fire-evil, these are due to yin deficiency to see more, such as kidney-yin deficiency, heart-yin deficiency, liver-yin deficiency, there is also excess fire from the dyspepsia. The treatment should be fire-clearing, gas-dropping, yin-nourishing and removing food retention. [Conclusion] In the cough caused by other evil,it can also be modeled on the analysis of its pathogenesis and therapeutic rule.

Objective To explore the inhibitory effect of astragalus polysaccharide (APS) on the proliferation of human erythroleukemia K562 cells and its mechanisms.Methods After K562 cells (purchased from Shanghai cell bank of chinese academy of science) were treated with different concentrations (0 mg/L,100 mg/L,200 mg/L and 400 mg/L) of APS.The influences of APS on the growth rate,doubling time and cell cycle distribution of K562 cells were observed by methyl thiazolyl tetra-zolium assay (MTF) and flow cytometry,respectively.Furthermore,the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blotting assay were used to detect the expressions of Cyclin A,Cyclin B,Cyclin E and p21 gene at the mRNA and protein levels,respectively.Results MTT assay findings showed that,compared to the control group (0 mg/L APS),growth rates of K562 cells treated with 100 mg/L,200 mg/L and 400 mg/L APS decreased significantly (all P < 0.01),and the doubling times lengthened significantly (all P < 0.01).Flow cytometry findings revealed that,compared to the control group,the G1 phase cells in K562 cells of APS group increased significantly (P <0.01),while the S and G2/M phase cells decreased significantly (all P < 0.01).RT-PCR and Western blotting results indicated that Cyclin B and Cyclin E expression of K562 cells at the mRNA and protein levels in the APS group were significantly lower than those of the control group(all P < 0.01),whereas p21 expression was significantly enhanced at mRNA and protein levels (P < 0.01),and Cyclin A expression was not significantly different at mRNA and protein levels between the 2 groups (all P > 0.05).Conclusions APS could inhibit the proliferation of human erythroleukemia K562 cells.APS could inhibit the proliferation of K562 cells by down-regulating the expression of Cyclin B and Cyclin E and up-regulating the expression of p21.

ObjectiveBy observing and comparing the effect of wheat-sized moxibustion on the quality of life and interleukin (IL)-10 expression in stageⅢ~Ⅳtumor patients of two different traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) patterns by using QLQ-C30 questionnaire, to see whether wheat-sized moxibustion can improve the quality of life, regulate oncology-related immune system, and enhance the survival rate of the stageⅢ~Ⅳtumor patients.MethodForty-two tumor patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group and were differentiated into TCM patterns. The treatment group was intervened by conventional Chinese and Western medicine plus 2 weeks of wheat-sized moxibustion. QLQ-C30 questionnaire was adopted for evaluation before and after treatment, and peripheral blood was drawn to detect the expression of IL-10.ResultWheat-sized moxibustion improved the quality of life, especially fatigueand poor appetite; the expression of IL-10 dropped after wheat-sized moxibustion.Conclusion Wheat-sized moxibustion can improve the quality of life of the tumor patients and down-regulate the expression of IL-10.

Objective To explore the method for establish the temporal lobe epilepsy model in SD rats with stereotactic technique and to study the characteristic of electroencephalography (EEG) after epileptic seizure. Methods Kainic acid was injected into right hippocampus via stereotactic technique in 20 rats, and the behavior of rat was recorded by a video camera. The electrical activity changes of brain were recorded by EEG in bilateral hippocampus, amygdala and frontal lobe. Results According to Racine's scale, 6 rats were typeⅤ,10 rats were type Ⅳ,3 rats were type Ⅲ,1 rat was type Ⅱ. The spike wave was originated from hippocampus and spread to amygdala and frontal lobe. Pathologic changes showed that prolonged seizures induced pyramidal cell loss and death in hippocampus. Conclusions The method to establish kainic acid induced temporal lobe epilepsy model with stereotactic technique was credible, economical and useful. The spike wave originated from hippocampus was the basic feature of EEG of temporal lobe epilepsy model in rats.
