The aim of this study is to develop the Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels and investigate its pharmacodynamics. Oleic acid was used as oil phase, polyoxyethylene castor oil as surfaetant, and 1,2-propanediol as cosurfactant to screen the formula of Tripterygium glycoside nanoemulsion using the pseudo-temary phase diagrams. Then the nanoemulsion gels was prepared. The ICR mouse ears were sensitazated by 7% DNCB, and then were excited by 0.3% DNCB to stimulate the model of mouse chronic dermatitis and eczema. The concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-8 in mouse blood were determined by ELISA. The results showed that Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels could significantly inhibit the swelling of mouse ears(P < 0.01) and ameliorate the edama and erythema of model mouse ears skin. Also it could significantly decrease the expression of IFN-γ and IL-4 in model mouse blood. Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels had a good therapeutic effect on mouse model of dermatitis and eczema. It was expected to provide a new and long-acting exterernal preparation for the treatment of dermatitis and eczema.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of a phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide "ASOND" combined with cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum (DDP), 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and adriamycin (ADM) respectively on inhibiting the proliferation of HepG2 cells.
METHODSA phosphorothioate antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (5'-ACTCACTCAGG CCTCAGACT-3') targeted to human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) mRNA, which named cantide, was synthesized. ASODN was transfected into HepG2 by lipofectin. And cell growth activity was evaluated by MTT assay. SAS software and Jin Zhengjun Method were used to evaluate the interaction of ASODN and these chemotherapeutic drugs.
RESULTSCombination treatments with 0.1micromol/L ASODN reduced the IC50 of DDP, 5-FU and ADM from 1.07, 4.15 and 0.29microg/ml to 0.25, 1.52 and 0.12microg/ml respectively. The inhibitory ability of combination treatments on HepG2 cells was higher than that of these drugs alone (F=66.92, 25.96, 8.56, P<0.001). And synergism (Q>or=1.15) was observed at the lower concentration of DDP ( CONCLUSIONASODN may enhance therapeutic effectiveness of chemotherapeutic drugs in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of Astragalus on cardiac function and serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) level in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF).
METHODSForty-five patients of Xin-qi deficiency or Xin-yang deficiency types were assigned to the Chinese medicine (CM) group and the Western medicine (WM) group by a randomizing digital table. Standard treatment for correcting heart failure, including digoxin, diuretics, etc. was administered to both groups, but to the CM group oral medication of Astragalus granule was given additionally at the dosage of 2.25 g twice a day, the treatment for both was continued for two weeks. NYHA cardiac functional grading, serum TNF-alpha level, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and walk distance in 6 min (WD) were measured before and after treatment, and a correlation analysis was carried out.
RESULTSAfter therapy, the level of TNF-alpha in the two groups decreased (P < 0.05) and it was lower in the CM group [(54.77 +/- 9.34) microg/L] than in the WM group [(62.10 +/- 9.94) microg/L] (P < 0.05); LVEF in the two groups increased (P < 0.05) and it was higher in the CM group [(64.45 +/- 12.47)%] than that in the WM group [(56.03 +/- 13.33)%] (P < 0.05); both groups' WD increased (P < 0.05) and it was longer in the CM group [(446.97 +/- 68.82) m] than in the WM group [(345.40 +/- 63.62) m] (P < 0.05); the improvement of cardiac functional grading in the CM group was outstriper than the WM group (P < 0.05). The improvement in cardiac function was negatively correlated with TNF-alpha level.
CONCLUSIONAstragalus can alleviate the calcium overload-induced myocardial damage and improve both systolic and diastolic functions of heart in patients with CHF.
