4.Signal transduction in hepatic stellate cells and possible drug targets
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(12):-
Liver fibrosis can be classified as a wound-healing response to a variety of chronic stimuli,and is characterized by an excessive deposition of extracellular matrix(ECM)proteins.Hepatic stellate cells(HSCs)are presently regarded as one of the key cell types involved in the progression of liver fibrosis.Following a fibrogenic stimulus,HSC changes from a quiescent to an activated,collagen-producing cell.Each cellular response to extracelluar stimuli must be framed in a scenario.Along these lines,the identification and characterization of intracellular signaling pathways activated by different stimuli in HSCs represent a mandatory step.Drug targets which aim at the extra-cellular signals or intra-cellular cascades are required for ameliorating liver fibrosis.
5.Study on the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine and natural medicine on hepatic fibrosis
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2003;0(07):-
Hepatic fibrosis is a pathological process in which excessive deposition of extracellular matrix components, occurs due to an imbalance between the production and degradation of matrix. Fibrosis is the hallmark of most chronic liver diseases. It is also the major factor of the development of chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis. Therefore, in light of the regulative factors on different levels and mechanism of fiber synthesis and degradation, antifibrotic medicine can inhibit the synthesis of matrix or increase its degradation on different links. The present situation concerning the study of the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine and natural medicine on hepatic fibrosis is reviewed.
6.COLOR AC-PDP ENHANCEMENT OF LOW LEVELS IMAGE QUALITY WITH DYNAMIC MODIFYING SUB-FIELDS CODE
Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis 2006;18(2):126-130,145
Based on the "Grayscales average distribution" method which equally distributes the input gray levels to output gray levels, three improved methods named: "Reduce the gray range expressed by the less significant subfields", "Low levels preset" and "Modify the exponent of inverse-gamma function" are proposed in this paper. Using these methods, the inverse-gamma relation subfields code can be obtained easily which can improve the low level expressions of AC-PDP. And a program, "gray scales distribution validate program", which can enhance the expressions of the demanded gray levels range, is also proposed in this paper.
8. ATP-binding-cassette transporters and fluconazole-resistance of clinical Candida albicans strains
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;29(9):1038-1041
Objective: To explore the relationship between CDR1 and CDR2 expression and fluconazole-resistance in clinical Candida albicans strains, so as to explore the mechanism of drug-resistance in Candida albicans. Methods: The minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of clinical Candida albicans strains to fluconazole were determined by broth microdilution method. The total RNA of fluconazole-susceptible and fluconazole-resistant Candida albicans strains were extracted, and the expression of the CDR1 and CDR2 genes was examined by real-time RT-PCR. The efflux of Rhodamine 6G was determined in the strains highly expressing CDR1 and CDR2 genes. Results: The incidences of CDR1 and (or) CDR2 overexpression in fluconazole-resistant strains were significantly higher than those in the fluconazole-sensitive stains. The efflux of Rhodamine 6G was significantly increased in the fluconazole-resistant strains when glucose was added, and overexpression of CDR1 and CDR2 were observed in theses strains. Some resistant strains showed no overexpression of CDR1 and CDR2. Conclusion: Fluconazole-resistance in clinical Candida albicans strains is related to the overexpression of ABC transporter proteins. Overexpression of ABC transporters can increase the efflux of drugs and therefore lead to drug-resistance. Other mechanisms may also participate in the development of drug resistance in the clinical Candida albicans strains.

ObjectiveTo analysis the current conditions of the main chronic disease,satisfaction,reactive and trust,then to make the control policy in community health management base in China.Method Using the questionnaire by oneself,which the contents include prevalence,understand rate,management rate,behavior correct rate,control rate,medicine obey and satisfaction,reactive and trust of 2009 the chronic disease in 2009.ResultsThe total investigate people was 1 189 456.The hypertension prevalence is 8.01%,the diabetes prevalence is 4.41%.To compare with Shanghai and Jilin in 6 aspects,the prevalence,understand rate,management rate,control rate,medicine obey rate is higher in Shanghai.But behavior correct rate is lower in Jilin.Survey of hypertension prevalence rate was decreased,awareness,management,rates,rates of behavior modification,medication compliance rates and control rates of growth from 2009 to 2010.Satisfaction,responsiveness and trust indicators investigated a total of 2268 people,the process of service satisfaction to 93.43%,93.78% overall satisfaction; to have the privacy of reactivity to 94.41% of the basic amenities and clean comfortable response of the 90.45% ; of treatment services for the 92.59%confidence,the confidence of the cost for the 93.98% of the overall trust in institutions is 92.76%.ConclusionsThe government must take main principle in chronic disease control.We must enhance base construct of community health management and increase management level of chronic disease.We must enhance practitioner's culture ang increase knowledge of chronic disease management.
10.Study of the relationships between insulin resistance and the levels of serum resistin in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease
Journal of Chinese Physician 2012;14(1):45-49
ObjectiveTo measure levels of serum resistin in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and explore the relationship between serum resistin and insulin resistance,and the role of serum resistin in the pathogenesis and progression of NAFLD.Methods 53 patients (including 30males and 23 females) with NAFLD and the 28 control subjects (including 16males and 12females) were enrolled in this study.The height,weight,waist circumstance,hip girth and blood pressure of all subjects were obtained by standard methods.To all the subjects,the parameters including fasting blood glucose (FBG),triglyceride ( TG),total cholesterol (TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( HDL-c ),lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-c ),alanine aminotransferase ( ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST)and gamma glutamyl transferase (GGT) were measured.Serum resistin was measured by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) and fasting serum insulin (FINS) were measured by enzymelinked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Body mass indexes (BMI),waist hip ratio (WHR),body fat percentage ( BF% ) were calculated with formula.Homeostasis model assessment was applied to assess the status of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR).The relationships between serum resistin and various parameters in patients with NAFLD were observed and analyzed by statistical methods.ResultsThere were no significant differences in the number of cases,average age,compositions of sex and BF% between the NAFLD group and the control group ( P > 0.05).In the NAFLD group,systolic blood pressure ( SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP).The waist circumference,hip girth and BMI and WHR were higher than those of control group ( t =3.54,3.32,3.56,5.85,5.56,4.10,P =0.001).There were no significant differences on the level of TC,HDL-c,LDL-c between the NAFLD group and the control group ( P >0.05).In the NAFLD group,FBG,TG,AST were higher than those of control group ( P =0.001,P =0.004,P =0.001 ).The levels of serum resistin,FINS,HOMA-IR,ALT and GGT in NAFLD group were significantly higher than those of control group,and there was significant difference between two groups ( P =0.0005).There was no significant correlation between serum resistin and age,BMI,WHR,BF%,FBG,TG,TC,HDL-C,LDL-C,AST in NAFLD group ( P > 0.05).The levels of serum resistin in patients with NAFLD were positively correlated with GGT,ALT,FINS,HOMA-IR ( r =0.354,0.391,0.875,0.881,P <0.05 or <0.01 ).After multiple stepwise regression analysis,the results showed that HOMA-IR was the most important factor for affecting the levels of serum resistin.The levels of serum resistin in male and female patients with NAFLD were higher than those of control group ( P <0.05).But no statistical difference was found between males and females in two groups ( P > 0.05).ConclusionsThe levels of serum resistin in patients with NAFLD were significantly higher than those of controls.Serum resistin in patients with NAFLD was closely correlated with insulin resistance,and it may participate in the pathogenetic progress of NAFLD.Serum resistin in patients with NAFLD might be associated with hepatic insulin resistance,and it has no correlations with obesity-related insulin resistance.Serum resistin in patients with NAFLD may participate in the inflammation of fatty liver disease as inflammatory cytokines.
