To discuss the feasibility of the pharmacodynamic evaluation method for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) formula particles, with traditional decoction for reference and the intervention of Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex in rats with ulcerative colitis (UC). First of all, the similarity of traditional Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex decoction and formula particles of different manufacturers was defined by using the IR fingerprint. The UC rat model was established and given Houpo formula particles of different doses and manufacturers, with the decoction for reference, in order to observe disease activity index (DAI), colon mucosa damage index (CMDI), pathologic changes, nitric oxide (NO), endothdin (ET), substance P, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP). Their intervention effects on UC rats were compared to study the difference between Sanjiu and Tianjiang Houpo formula particles, in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the pharmacodynamic evaluation method for Houpo formula particles. According to the results, Houpo formula particles showed similar pharmacodynamic actions with the traditional decoction. The pharmacodynamic comparison of Houpo formula particles of different manufacturers showed no statistical significance. The experiment showed that on the basis of the TCM compounds, a prescription dismantlement study was conducted to define target points of various drugs. The traditional decoction was selected for reference in the comparison of corresponding formula particles for their pharmacodynamic equivalence. This method could avoid controversies about single or combined boiling of formula particles, and give objective comments on the pharmacodynamic effect of the formula particles. The method is proved to be feasible.

Objective To set up an effective and low-price way for enriching dendritic cells precursor from chronic myelogeous leukemia by Percoll density gradients.Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) were collected by separation through Ficoll-Hypaque,then PBMCs were separated by 55% Percoll gradients. The cell type and DCs expressing CD1a,CD86 were detected in the high-density group(C),low-density group(B) and non-Percoll separation group(A).Results After separation of 55% Percoll,the percentage of promyelocytes and myelocytes in group B was obviously higher than those in group A and group C(P

Manganese(Mn) is one of the essential trace elements in biologic metabolism.With proper quantity,Mn acts as some enzymes’active groups,reactivators,and participates in the physiological functions of central nervous system.Overdose exposure to Mn in industry may result in occurrence of occupational manganism,which can cause damage of many aspects of the body such as nerve,immunity and reproduction.The aim of present essay is to review the current studies on nerval behavior function and biomarkers of manganism both in China and other countries.

Objective To explore the effect of trimetazidine on myocardial structure injury induced by pyran adriamycin and to clarify the protective effect of trimetazidine on. the changes of myocardial structure and its mechanism.Methods 36 Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group,model group and treatment group. The rats in model group and treatment group were injected with pyran doxorubicin 2.5 mg·kg-1 (concentration 2 g·L-1 )by the caudal vein once a week.The rats in control group were injected with equivalent normal saline for 6 weeks.The rats in treatment group were intragastricly infused with trimetazidine 5.4 mg · kg · d-1 one day before making the model.The rats in control group and model group were injected with equivalent normal saline for 8 weeks.At the end of the experiment, the myocardial enzymes in serum of the rats in various groups were measured. The morphology of myocardium tissue was detected by light microscope and electron microscope. Results Compared with model group,the levels of myoglobin,troponin I and alanine transaminase (ALT)of the rats in treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.05).Under light microscope the myocardium of the rats in model group arranged disorderly, the structure was severely damaged, emyocardial was seen, the myofilament was dissolved;the myocardium of the rats in treatment group arranged in order, the structure was nearly integrated,partial dissolution and fracture were found.Under electron microscope in model group the myocardial muscle bundle dissolved, fractured and disappeared, and the mitochondria was decreased,and the cytoplasmic matrix cavitation was seen;the cardiomyocytes sarcomeres of the rats in treatment group arranged in order,local myofilaments were reduced slightly, the surrounding mitochondria were oval and arranged in parallel between the muscle bundles.Conclusion Trimetazidine has protective effect on the cardiomyocyte injury caused by pyran adriamycin,and its mechanism may be related to decreasing the injury of mitochondria and myocytes.

Objective The international multidisciplinary lung adenocarcinoma classification was published by IASLC/ ATS/ERS in 2011.This study aimed to explore the clinicopathologic characteristics of lung adenocarcinoma based on IASLC/ATS/ERS classification and validate its clinical diagnostic and therapeutic value.Methods 2 056 cases of surgical resection from Shanghai Chest Hospital were classified according to the new classification and clinical information were retrospectively reviewed.The clinicopathologic characteristics based on new classification were analyzed statistically.Results Our data indicated that women were in high risk of lung adenocarcinoma; The average age of onset was 59-year-old; the female patients were younger than the male patients (58.7 years vs 60.2 years,P ＜ 0.01) ; Average tumor diameter was 2.6 centimeter; right lung was more popular than left and superior lobe than the inferior one.Acinar predominant subtype and papillary predominant subtype were frequently observed.Micropapillary predominant subtype and solid predominant subtype were identified to be more aggressive than other histopathologic subtypes.Most patients were classified as stage Ⅰ(71.7％),which were predominantly stage Ⅰa (53.1％).Conclusion The new classification is superior to reflect the clinicopathologic characteristics of lung adenocarcinoma and satisfy clinical needs,especially contributing to change and update the surgical strategy of early stage lung adenocarcinoma.

Objective To investigate changes in the expression of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE) and the oxidative DNA damage marker 8 OHdG in distant hippocampus regions of the rat brain after focal cerebral ischemia of the middle cerebral artery.Methods SD rats were divided into the sham surgery group and the pMCAO group (induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion).Pathological changes in brain tissues were examined at 2 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h.The expression of APE and 8-OHdG was measured by immunohistochemical staining methods.TUNEL staining was performed to detect apoptosis.Results Reduction of APE expression in the CA1 region of the hippocampus on the ischemia side appeared at 2 h in the pMCAO group and continued as ischemia persisted (F=11.91,P＜0.05).The expression of 8OHdG and TUNEL immunoreactivity in the CA1 region of the hippocampus on the ischemia side were first observed at 6h in the pMCAO group and intensified during the remainder of induced ischemia (F=9.23 and 10.46 respectively,P＜0.05 for both).Compared with the sham group,8-OHdG expression and TUNEL immunoreactivity in the pMCAO group were at nearly the same levels from 24 h to 72h.Conclusions Oxidative DNA damage occurs in hippocampus regions of the rat brain after experimentally induced focal cerebral ischemia of the middle cerebral artery.APE expression declines in regions distant from focal cerebral ischemia.Development and accumulation of oxidative DNA damage can induce apoptosis in certain brain regions.
