Objective To observe the influence of Buyang Huanwu Decoction ( BYHWD) on the inhibition of rat myocardial H9C2 cell activity and SH2-containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 ( SHP-1) activity induced by trastuzumab, and to explore the possible regulatory mechanism after observing the intervention of BYHWD on rat myocardial H9C2 cell transfected with SHP-1 or SHPC/S-1 gene. Methods The eukaryotic expression vectors pcDNA3.1 (+)- SHP-1 and pcDNA3.1 (+) -SHPC/S–1 were constructed and then were transfected to rat myocardial H9C2 cells using the method of liposome transfection. The cells with positive clones were screened out with G418, and then were cultured with trastuzumab for maintaining growth. Using quantitative RT-PCR, we detected the expression of SHP-1 gene and SHPC/S - 1 gene in rat myocardial H9C2 cells. The phosphatase activity analysis was used for observing the regulatory effect of BYHWD on SHP-1 in myocardial cells. Furthermore, we observed the apoptosis of rat myocardial H9C2 cells by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay after treatment with BYHWD. Results Sequencing results indicated the successful construction of eukaryotic expression vectors, which had stable expression in myocardial H9C2 cells even under the intervention of trastuzumab. The results of phosphatase analysis showed that H9C2-SHP-1 had the highest activities of phosphatase, but the activities were decreased after the intervention with BYHWD ( P<0.05) . The results of MTT assay also showed the apoptotic rate of H9C2-SHP-1 cells was decreased after treatment with BYHWD ( P <0.05) . Conclusion BYHWD can promote the proliferation of myocardial H9C2 cells inhibited by trastuzumab, and can regulate the expression of SHP-1 in myocardial cells, which will supply reference to the further study of treatment of trastuzumab-induced cardiac toxicity.

Objective To retrospectively analyzed the current application of warfarin in hospitalized patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillationand ( NVAF), explore the key role of clinical pharmacists in warfarin medication. Methods A retrospective survey of anticoagulant therapy for 179 hospitalized patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation in Renming Hospotal of Wuhan University from January to December 2013 was retrived,including the usage of warfarin for NVAF and new-onset atrial fibrillation,dosage,international normalized ratio(INR),hemorrhage event and so on.The simple factor like the age,complicated chronic diseases and previous cerebrovascular events on the use of warfarin was explored. Results The total response rate to anticoagulants was 85.6% for patients with high risk of stroke(27.3% with warfarin and 58.3% with antiplatelet therapy),who are recommended to use warfarin,patient were treated with anti-thrombotic therapy.The total of 19.1% of the patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation used warfarin as therapy.The whole monitoring rate of INR was 89.8%,and the good control rate was 11.9%. Univariate analysis showed that some high risk factors such as age and high blood pressure affected the usage of warfarin. Conclusion The anti-thrombotic therapy for NVAF patients in the hospital is good,but usage of warfarin for those with new-onset atrial fibrillation is low,which couldn't reach the INR standard. More attention should be taken by the clinic pharmacists in effective managing the use of anticoagulant to build a safe,economic and effective medication system for warfarin application.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and adverse effects of photodynamic therapy (PDT) versus pulsed dye laser(PDL)for the treatment of port wine stains(PWS). Methods Forty?five patients with PWS were enrolled in this study. The PWS lesions in each patient were randomly divided into PDT and PDL areas. Hematoporphyrin monomethyl ether of 5 mg/kg was injected intravenously into the PDT area protected from light, followed by 20?minute irradiation with a 532?nm, solid?state, continuous?wave laser(power density:80-100 mw/cm2;spot diameter: 7 cm)10 minutes later. The PDL area was treated with a single session of 595?nm pulsed dye laser radiation(spot diameter:7 mm;pulse width:10 ms;energy density:10-12 J/cm2). The interval between PDT and PDL treatment was no shorter than two months. Follow up visits were scheduled on day 4 and week 8 after each treatment. Adverse reactions were recorded, and photographs were taken before and 8 weeks after the treatment for evaluation of lesion regression. Results In the case of PDT area, 10 cases(22.22%)were nearly cured, 22(48.89%)achieved marked improvement, 9(20.00%)improvement, 4(8.89%)no improvement. As far as the PDL area is concerned, 6 cases(13.33%)were nearly cured, 16(35.56%)achieved marked improvement, 18(40.00%)improvement, and 5 (11.11%)no improvement. The response rate was significantly higher in the PDT area than in the PDL area(Z=2.48, P<0.05). Hyperpigmentation, which spontaneously subsided within 3 to 6 months, was the main adverse reaction. No significant difference was found in the incidence rate of adverse reactions between the PDL and PDT areas(24.44%vs. 15.56%, Z=1.26, P>0.05). Conclusion For the treatment of PWS, both PDT and PDL are effective and safe, and single?session PDT appears to be superior to single?session PDL.

Objective To investigate the effect of penehyclidine hydrochloride ( PHC) pretreat?ment on nuclear factor erythroid 2?related factor 2∕heme oxygenase?1 ( Nrf2∕HO?1) signaling pathway in re?nal tissues of rats with rhabdomyolysis?induced acute kidney injury ( AKI) . Methods Thirty?six pathogen?free male Sprague?Dawley rats, weighing 200-220 g, were assigned into 3 groups ( n=12 each) using a random number table: control group (group C), group AKI and PHC pretreatment group (group PHC). Rhabdomyolysis was induced by intramuscular injection of 50% glycerol 10 ml∕kg in bilateral hindlimbs. PHC 0?2 mg∕kg was injected intraperitoneally at 30 min before glycerol was injected intramuscularly in group PHC. At 1 and 6 h after glycerol injection, serum was collected for determination of blood urea nitro?gen ( BUN) and creatinine ( Cr) concentrations, and bilateral kidneys were harvested for pathological ex?amination and for determination of HO?1 activity and expression of Nrf2 mRNA and HO?1 mRNA ( by quan?titative real?time polymerase chain reaction) , Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total pro?tein in renal tissues ( by Western blot) . The damage to the renal tubules was scored. Results Compared with group C, the BUN and Cr concentrations in serum and renal tubular damage scores were significantly increased, the expression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total protein was signifi?cantly up?regulated, and HO?1 activity was significantly increased in AKI and PHC groups, the expression of HO?1 mRNA was significantly up?regulated in group AKI, and the expression of Nrf2 mRNA and HO?1 mRNA was significantly up?regulated in group PHC (P<0?01 or 0?05). Compared with group AKI, the BUN and Cr concentrations in serum and renal tubular damage scores were significantly decreased, the ex?pression of Nrf2 in nucleoprotein and total protein and HO?1 in total protein was significantly up?regulated, and HO?1 activity was significantly increased in group PHC ( P<0?01 or 0?05) . Conclusion The mecha?nism by which PHC pretreatment attenuates rhabdomyolysis?induced AKI may be related to activation of Nrf2∕HO?1 signaling pathway in renal tissues of rats.
