Objective To investigate expression of transforming growth factor-?1(TGF-?1)and connective tissue growth factor(CTGF) protein in renal tissues,and detect the levels of urinary TGF-?1 and CTGF in rats with diabetic nephropathy(DN).To observe the influence of losartan on expression of the two protein in renal tissue and excretion in urine.Methods Wistar rats were treated by intravenous injection of streptozotocin after right nephrectomy to induce DN rat model.The DN rats were randomly divided into two groups:DN experimental group and losartan treated group.The expression of TGF-?1 and CTGF in renal tissue were determined with immunohistochemical staining,urinary TGF-?1 and CTGF were assayed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) at 6,12 weeks respectively.Results Compared with losartan treated group,urinary protein excretion and the protein expression of TGF-?1 and CTGF significantly increased(P

The rate of corneal graft rejection is still high for high-risk keratoplasty although immune suppression drug is routinely used.The role of traditional Chinese medicine in corneal transplantation is concerned gradually.Heijingpaichitang on the prevention and treatment of rats with high-risk corneal allograft rejection needs further study.Objective This study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of heijingpaichitang on high-risk corneal transplantation immune rejection in rats.Methods Sixteen female SD rats were used as the donors and 32female Wistar rats were served as recipients.The high-risk corneal trasplantation models were established by corneal suture in 32 Wistar rats,and then homogeneity variant SD-Wistar corneal transplantation was performed.The recipients were randomized into model control group,cyclosporinc A (CsA)group,heijingpaichitang group and CsA +heijingpaichitang group.CsA,heijingpaichitang and CsA + heijingpaichitang was orally administered 4 days after operation once per day for 15 days,and normal saline solution was used at the same way in the model control group.Ocular anterior segment reaction was examined under the slit lamp and corneal opacification,edema and neovasculation were scored based on Larkin' s criteria.Rejection index of the corneal graft was recorded and the graft survival time was calculated.The pathological examination of the corneal graft was carried out in all rats,and the inflammatory cells in the corneas and CD4+ cells in the periphery blood were assayed using flow cytometry.The use of the animals complied with ARVO Statement.Results Corneal graft rejection occurred in 10 days after operation in the model control group,12-13 days in the CsA group and heijingpaichitang group and 22 days in the CsA +heijingpaichitang group.Compared with model control group,the scores of the corneal opacification,corneal edema and neovascularization were significantly lower in the CsA group,heijingpaichitang group and CsA+heijingpaichitang group (P＜0.05),and all the scores were declined in the CsA+ heijingpaichitang group compared with CsA group and heijingpaichitang group(P＜0.01),but no significant differences were seen in the scores between the CsA group and heijingpaichitang group(P＞0.05).The mean survival time of grafts was (10.38 ±1.69)days in the model control group,(22.50 ± 3.07) days in the CsA + heijingpaichitang group,with the significant difference (t =-9.790,P =0.000).The pathological examination of graft showed that the lymphocytes and new blood vessels were less in the CsA+heijingpaichitang group compared with CsA group and heijingpaichitang group 15 days after operation.Flow cytometry verified that the number of lymphocytes in graft,CD4+cells and CD4+/CD8+ in periphery blood were significantly lower in the heijingpaichitang group,CsA group and CsA+heijingpaichitang group compared with model control group (P＜0.05).Conclusions Heijingpaichitang can inhibit immune rejection to certain extent in high-risk corneal transplantation rat and has a similar effect to 0.1％ CsA.Heijingpaichitang and 0.1％ CsA have a synergistic effect.

Objective To evaluate the value of serum creatinine(Scr),creatinine clearance (Ccr),MDRD equation 7(MDRD 7),~(99)Tc~m-DTPA renal dynamic imaging(gGFR)and cystatin C in screening changed glomerular filtration function in type 2 diabetic patients.Methods The ~(99)Tc~m-Diethylene Triamine Pentaacetic Acid(~(99)Tc~m-DTPA)plasma clearance(rGFR)obtained with the dual plasma sampling method was used as a reference with which Scr,Ccr,MDRD 7,gGFR and Cystatin C were compared.Results Sixty of type 2 diabetic patients were selected,including 35 male and 25 female.The average age was(62.4?11.7)years and the average diabetic history was(10.66?9.35)years.Scr,Ccr, MDRD 7,gGFR were all correlated significantly with rGFR.Correlation coefficients were 0.675 for Ccr, -0.588 for Cystatin C,-0.500 for Scr,O.428 for MDRD 7,0.367 for gGFR(P values all

Objective To explore the pharmacokinetics of single and multiple oral 20 mg escitalopram in healthy Chinese volunteers. Methods A total of 12 subjects participated in the study. Escitalopram 20 mg was given orally once on day 1 and days 8 to 14 in the fast condition. Sequen-tial blood samples were collected over 144 hours on day 1 and 14 and a predose sample was obtained on day 12 to 14. Escitalopram concentrations in plasma were determined by a validated HPLC fluorescence method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with DAS software. Results Escitalopram disposition on oral administration is characterized by a two-compartment pharmacokinetic model. The mean t1/2 is 41.09 h, Cavis (76.4±26.8) μg·L-1, AUCss is (1832.4±642.4) μg·h ·L-1,AUC0-t, and AUC0-∞are (4765.9±2171.0) and (5385.6±2851.2) μg ·h·L-1, respectively; tmaxis (3.2±1.3) h;t1/2 is (41.1±17.7) h;CLis 5.0 L·h1. The mean accumulation index of AUC ( RAUC) is ( 1.2 ±0.3 ). Conclusion Escitalopram pharmacokinetics in healthy Chinese subjects given 20 mg once daily dosing regimen were characterized by a two-compartment pharmacokinetic model. The state -concentration oc-curre after 7 days of continuously dosing. There is no accumulation after continuously dosing.

A large number of bacteria were carried by mites parasitizing on animals and human,which including symbiotic and pathogenic bacteria.Mites were an important transmission media and could spread pathogenic bacteria.A total of 184 literatures were collected from database to analye diversity of bacteria carried by mites.There were about 105 species bacteria were carried by 94 mites.These bacteria belong to 9 phylums,22 orders,40 families and 55 genuses(including 17 pathogen and 20 opportunistic pathogen).In this paper,we reviewed the diversity of mites-associated bacteria,which could offer some data for investigation on the relationship between mites and mites-associate bacteria.
