Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2014;(11):1258-1260
Objective] To explore professor Yu Jingmao's clinical experience in coordinating and treating pediatric disease with herbal paste. [Method] By fol owing the teacher clinic, the author summarizes professor Yu Jingmao's academic experience of treatment of children with chronic il ness with herbal paste, and for proven cases. [Result] Professor Yu Jingmao uses herbal paste for modulating pediatric intractable disease with curative effect. In his opinion, herbal paste treatment of pediatric diseases must be combined with disease and syndrome differentiation, and considered in accordance with seasonal conditions and the patient's individuality. Professor Yu considers that herbal paste formulations are suitable for children, and pays attention to regulating and nourishing to strengthen the body focused on harmony, reinforcing with elimination based on balance, protecting and tonifying the spleen and stomach based on enjoying oral application. [Conclusion] According to children's physiological and pathological characteristics, professor Yu Jingmao has rich experiences in using herbal paste for personalized syndrome differentiation treatment of pediatric diseases to strengthen body resistance and eliminate evil, regulate Yin and Yang, which is worth generalizing and applying.
6.Dose-response Relation and Synergy Effects of Bioactive Components in Ginkgo biloba on Antiplatelet Aggregation and DPPH Free Radical Scavenging
World Science and Technology-Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2015;(11):2367-2372
This study was aimed to investigate the dose-response relations and synergy effects of bioactive components in Ginkgo bilobaon antiplatelet aggregation and DPPH free radical scavenging.The antiplatelet aggregation experiment and DPPH free radical scavenging experiment were conducted respectively to investigate the dose-response relations and synergy effects.Firstly,the effect of inhibiting platelet aggregation induced by PAF of ginkgolides in rabbits was investigated.And then,the effect of DPPH free radical scavenging by ginkgo flavonoids was also investigated.Finally,the synergy effects among effective components were studied.The results showed that ginkgolide A,ginkgolide B,ginkgolide C and bilobalide had dose-response relations on antiplatelet aggregation.Quercetin,kaempferol and isorhamnetin had DPPH free radical scavenging effects with dose-response relation.It was concluded that ginkgolide had the dose-response relation on antiplatelet aggregation.Ginkgolide A and ginkgolide B had synergy effect.Ginkgo flavonoids had DPPH free radical scavenging effect.Quercetin and isorhamnetin had synergy effect.

China Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Pharmacy 2005;0(03):-
Objective: To investigate the effect of sinomenine on expression of toll like receptor(TLR) 2 and TLR4 of dendritic cells in patients with rheumatoid arthritis in vitro.Methods: The peripheral blood mononuclear cells were isolated from 10 rheumatoid arthritis patients and differentiated into dendritic cells by stimulating with cytokines.Dendritic cells were exposed to high(5mM),middle(2mM),low(1mM) concentration sinomenine and control medium.TLR2 and TLR4 mRNA were detected by real time PCR.Western blot was used to measure the expression of TLR2 and TLR4.Results: In contrast to control,signifi cant lower expression of TLR2,TLR4 mRNA and protein were found in dendritic cells treated with sinomenine,especially in high and middle concentration.Conclusion: The therapeutical effect of sinomenine on rheumatoid arthritis is probably by inhibiting dendritic cells expressing TLR,which can transduce the in? ammatory signal.
8.Changes in myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients with cervical human papillomavirus (HPV) infection
Chinese Journal of Microbiology and Immunology 2017;37(8):586-593
Objective To investigate the changes in myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), regulatory T cells (Treg) and T helper 17 (Th17) cells in peripheral blood of patients with HPV infection and cervical diseases including ectopic cervical columnar epithelium (CE), cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CC), and to analyze the roles of MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in the development of cervical diseases.Methods This study enrolled 120 HPV-positive patients with cervical diseases (18 cases of CE, 50 cases of CIN, 52 cases of CC), 20 HPV-negative patients with cervical diseases (10 cases of CE and 10 cases of CIN) and 20 healthy subjects from March 2011 to December 2016.Changes in MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of all patients were detected by flow cytometry.Results Percentages of MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients who were positive for HPV were significantly higher than those in HPV-negative patients (P<0.05).Besides, percentages of these cells gradually increased with the exacerbation of cervical disease (CE-CINⅠ-CINⅡ-CINⅢ-CC) (P<0.05).Patients who were infected with high-risk HPV had significantly higher percentages of MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood than those infected with low-risk HPV (P<0.05).Changes of MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of HPV-positive patients with cervical cancer were related to International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage, tumor differentiation, lymph node metastasis and vascular invasion (P<0.05).MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of all patients were significantly reduced after treatment (P<0.05).Patients whose status changed from HPV-positive to HPV-negative following treatment also showed significantly decreased MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood as compared with those who remained HPV-positive (P<0.05).MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of HPV-positive patients with cervical diseases were positively correlated (r=0.599, 0.677, 0.648;P<0.05).Conclusion MDSC, Treg and Th17 cells in peripheral blood of patients with HPV infection are associated with the pathological process, severity and clinical pathological features of cervical diseases as well as therapeutic effects.Therefore, they can be used as biomarkers to detect the occurrence and development of HPV-positive cervical diseases.
9.Discussion on Basic Principles of Compilation of TCM English Textbooks Based on ESP Theory-Take English for TCM as an Example
Chinese Journal of Information on Traditional Chinese Medicine 2017;24(9):120-123
Textbook construction is an important part of building TCM English teaching system and its key research point is summarizing and exploring the basic principles and laws for guiding the compilation practice. This article tried to apply the theory of English for Specific Purpose and combine the compilation practice of English for TCM to explore the particular principles for compiling TCM English textbook.
10.Studies on the Cultivation of Wild Species of kansui(Euphorbia kansui)
Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 1994;0(11):-
From 1992 to 1994,investigations and experiments of the botanical and biological habit,seed treatment,and control of diseases and pests of Euphorbia kansui were conducted in Yuncheng. Results showed that sexual reproduction is better than asexual,and sowing in autumn is better in spring. Biological characteristics such as afterripening of the seed and summer dormancy of the plant are also revealed. In the end of 1994,the yield of sexual reproduction of E. kansui grown 3 or 4 years was 254. 90~344. 98g/m2 and the tubers are larger and whiter,with enough granular powder. The annual net income is 50~65 Yuan/m2. No identifiable variation in the cultivated plant was observed,and its chemical composition proved to be the same as that of the natural one,which complied with the criteria of the Pharmacopoeia. A complete and feasible cultivation programmehas been summed up,which provides a scientific basis for the protection of medicinal herbal resources and the benefit of medical herb cultivators
