AIMTo study the biliary excretion of genistein and its metabolite at different doses in rats.

METHODSSuspended in 0.5% CMC-Na solution, genistein was orally administered to rats at the dose of 6.25, 12.5 and 50 mg x kg(-1), separately. At various time intervals, the bile was collected. The bile was treated with beta-glucuronidase. The genistein in bile was extracted twice by vortexing with 2.0 mL mixture of methyl tert-tubtyl ether and pentane (8:2). The organic phase was removed into the tubes and then evaporated in ventilation cabinet. The residue was dissolved in 50 microL of methanol. Twenty microL solution was drawn and detected by high-performance liquid chromatography.

RESULTSThe accumulative biliary excretion of genistein was (42.56 +/- 6.54) , (75.17 +/- 18.87) and (126.60 +/- 34.78) microg at the dose of 6.25, 12.5 and 50 mg x kg(-1), respectively. The total drug (genistein plus glucuronidated genistein) excreted from bile was (108.46 +/- 35.23), (423.46 +/- 158.31) and ( 853.74 +/- 320. 84) microg, and the ratio of glucuronidated genistein was 60.76% , 82.25% and 85.17% at the dose of 6.25, 12.5 and 50 mg x kg(-1), respectively.

CONCLUSIONThe genistein was excreted mainly in the form of glucuronidated genistein in rat bile. The genistein and glucuronidated genistein were excreted in a nonlinear dose-dependent manner.

BACKGROUND: The preliminary study found that domestic porous tantalum is conducive to the early adhesion and proliferation of MG63 cells, which can be used as a scaffold material for bone tissue engineering. As an optimized product of platelet-rich plasma, platelet lysate is more suitable for bone induction in the bone repair. OBJECTIVE: To further investigate the effect of platelet lysate and domestic porous tantalum scaffold constructs on the proliferation of MG63 cells and expression of integrin β1 (ITGβ1)/Vinculin/F-actin signaling pathway based on our previous findings. METHODS: MG3 cells were cultured and inoculated onto domestic porous tantalum scaffolds with the addition of 3%, 5%, 7% and 10% platelet lysates. Then, 7% as the best volume fraction of platelet lysate was screened by cell counting kit-8 method. There were four experimental groups including blank group (normally cultured MG63 cells), platelet lysate group (MG63 cells were cultured in 7% platelet lysate), porous tantalum scaffold group (MG63 cells were cultured on the domestic porous tantalum scaffold), and combined group (MG63 cells were cultured with 7% platelet lysate and porous tantalum scaffold. Scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface morphology of domestic porous tantalum and platelet lysate-porous tantalum scaffold-MG63 cell complex. Cell counting kit-8 method was used to detect the proliferation of MG63 cells. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR), immunocytochemical staining and western blot were used to detect the expression of ITGβ1, Vinculin, F-actin in MG63 cells at mRNA and protein levels. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Under the scanning electron microscope, MG63 cells adhered well to the scaffold surface. Compared with the blank group, the proliferation of MG63 cells could be significantly promoted by either platelet lysate or porous tantalum scaffold (P < 0.05). Moreover, the proliferation of MG63 cells was significantly improved in the combined group compared with the other three groups (P < 0.05). Findings from qPCR, immunocytochemical staining and western blot showed the highest expression of ITGβ1, Vinculin, F-actin mRNA and protein in the combined group (P < 0.05). These results indicate that platelet lysate and the domestic porous tantalum scaffold can synergistically promote the proliferation of MG63 cells, and up-regulate the expression of ITGβ1, Vinculin and F-actin mRNA and protein. Activation of the ITGβ1/Vinculin/F-actin signaling pathway may contribute to the proliferation, adhesion and differentiation of MG63 cells.

Ankle sprain is one of the most common injuries associated with physical activities. Complications including pain and ankle instability are associated with decreased physical activity, reduced sport performance, and increased risk of recurrent ankle injury leading to detrimental effect on activities of daily living. Current management of ankle sprain can be conservative or surgical for serious cases. However, long healing period is required for conservative management in addition to its side effects and the risk of post-operative complications for surgical management. Due to the current challenges and setbacks faced by existing intervention, this paper aims to generate ideas in incorporating regenerative medicine as an intervention for ankle sprain. This review will provide a brief review on the existing management for ankle sprain along with some history, application and the potential of regenerative medicine in speeding up the healing process of ankle sprains.

OBJECTIVEIn China, people have relied on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for thousands of years to keep healthy and treat diseases. TCM also plays an important role in military health services and now forms a new discipline called military Chinese medicine (MCM). However, the type, quality and focus of research articles about MCM have not been reported. The present study was performed to analyze the growing trends of MCM and investigate China's contribution to military health services.

METHODSChina's MCM publications were retrieved from the PubMed database, as well as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data and Chongqing VIP database from 2005 to 2014.

RESULTSThe study found that the number of published articles increased markedly from 2005 to 2014. Basic research studies comprised a small percentage of the literature. Among these studies, military training injury and special military environmental medicine were the most common research subjects in MCM. Military hospitals were the main institutions generating MCM literature.

CONCLUSIONThe quality of MCM research is generally low, as indicated by the proportion of publications in core journals. Studies on MCM still lack high-quality publications and international cooperation.

This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid on insomnia rats combining the methods of network pharmacology, molecular docking and experimental verification. UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS method and TCMIP, TCMSP databases were used to collect the ingredients and targets of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid. Protein-protein interactions and network analysis were performed to screen the key network targets and putative active ingredients of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid in treatment of insomnia, and then following by biological function and KEGG pathway analysis. Then binding ability for key network targets and putative active ingredients were predicted with molecular docking. The prediction targets were validated in para-chlorophenylalanine (PCPA) induced insomnia rats with administration of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid (2, 4, 8 mL·kg^-1) for 7 days. Pentobarbital sodium induced sleeping test were performed to evaluate the synergistic sleep-aiding effect of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid. Then glutamic acid (Glu), γ-aminobutyrate (GABA) content and glutamate decarboxylase 1 (GAD67) activity in hypothalamus or hippocampus were evaluated, and the expressions of GAD67, γ-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit α1 (GABRA1) and γ-aminobutyric acid receptor subunit β2 (GABRB2) in hippocampus were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot methods. Animal experiments were approved by the Institutional Committee on Animal Care of Guangxi Institute of Chinese Medicine & Pharmaceutical Science (the number of permission: 2022060802). Results showed that 16 key network targets and 16 putative active ingredients were obtained by analyzing the herbs-ingredients-targets network of Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid in treatment of insomnia. Network pharmacology and molecular docking all indicated these active ingredients, for example atractylenolide Ⅲ, showed better binding ability with GABRA1 and GABRB2. Animal study indicated that, compared to PCPA-induced insomnia model, Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid remarkably shortened the sleeping latency and increased the sleeping duration, increased GAD67 activity and the production of GABA in hippocampus of insomnia rats, as well as the expressions of GAD67, GABRA1 and GABRB2, while decreased Glu content in hypothalamus, leading to decreasing of Glu/GABA ratio and recovery of Glu-GABA balance. These results indicated that Jiu Wei Bu Xue Oral Liquid improved insomnia symptoms and helped maintain the Glu-GABA balance within hypothalamus and hippocampus, and reduced the excitatory neurotoxicity within brain. The mechanism may due to the elevation of GAD67 expression and enzyme activity, and the enhancement of type-A GABA receptor (GABA_AR)-mediated neurons inhibition.

Objective::To clarify the inhibitory effect of essential oil from Alpinia zerumbet rhizome (EOFAZ) on oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced transformation of macrophage into foam cell and explore its possible mechanism. Method::THP-1 monocyte was incubated with 100 μg·L^-1 phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) to grow into macrophage, experiment was divided into 4 groups as follows, control group, model group (80 mg·L^-1 ox-LDL), EOFAZ at low dose (80 mg·L^-1 ox-LDL+ 4 μg·L^-1 EOFAZ)and EOFAZ at high dose (80 g·L^-1 ox-LDL+ 20 μg·L^-1 EOFAZ). Mathye thiazolye telrazliurn (MTT) method was employed to examine the influence of EOFAZ on macrophage viability. Western blot was used to analyze the expression level of cluster of differentiation 36(CD36) and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1(ABCA1) protein in macrophage. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect cholesteryl ester contents in macrophage. Oil red O staining was applied to determine the accumulation of lipids in macrophage. Result::EOFAZ showed non-toxic effect on macrophage. Compared to control group, macrophage in model group displayed higher level of cholesteryl ester and lipid droplet(P<0.01), as well as significant increasing of CD36 expression (P<0.01), but no effect on ABCA1 expression. EOFAZ notably reduced the contents of lipids and cholesteryl ester(P<0.01), down-regulated expression of CD36 and up-regulated expression of ABCA1 in macrophage in comparison with the model group(P<0.01), indicating that EOFAZ inhibited transformation of macrophage into foam cell. Conclusion::EOFAZ could inhibit ox-LDL-induced transformation of macrophage into foam cell, the underlying mechanism may involves its ability to increase CD36 expression and decrease ABCA1 expression in macrophage.
