Objective: By observing the differences in Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) and visual analog scale (VAS) scores in moxibustion treatment for moderate-to-severe primary knee osteoarthritis (KOA) with moxa of different storage years (3-year moxa and 1-year moxa from Qichun, Huanggang City, Hubei Province, China) through a randomized clinical trial, to objectively evaluate the differences in therapeutic efficacy of moxibustion with moxa of different storage years. Methods: A total of 63 patients with moderate-to-severe KOA who met the inclusion criteria were randomized into moxibustion group 1 and moxibustion group 2 by central randomization method, with 32 cases in moxibustion group 1 and 31 cases in moxibustion group 2. Moxibustion group 1 was treated with moxa stored for 3 years, and moxibustion group 2 was treated with moxa stored for 1 year. Dubi (ST 35), Neixiyan (EX-LE 4) and Heding (EX-LE 2) were selected in both groups, and the treatment lasted 20 min per time, 3 times a week. The immediate efficacy was compared after 6 times of treatment, and long-term efficacy was compared at follow-up 4 weeks after the end of treatment. Results: During the treatment, there were 2 dropouts in moxibustion group 1, and 1 dropout in moxibustion group 2. The total effective rate in the two groups was 83.3% and 60.0%, respectively. Followed up at 4 weeks after the end of treatment, the total effective rate in the two groups was 80.0% and 66.7%, respectively. There were no statistical differences between the two groups (both P>0.05). After treatment and 4 weeks after the end of treatment, the WOMAC and VAS scores in both groups decreased significantly compared with those before treatment (all P<0.01); the scores of stiffness item of WOMAC in moxibustion group 1 were lower than those in moxibustion group 2 (both P<0.05); there were no statistical differences in the scores of pain item and dysfunction item of WOMAC, and VAS scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Moxibustion with moxa of different storage years (stored for 3 years and 1 year) both can improve the pain, stiffness and motor function in patients with moderate-to-severe KOA. While moxa stored for 3 years has a better therapeutic efficacy in improving stiffness of the knee joint than that stored for 1 year.

Objective To study the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) after transferred angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ) type 2 receptor (AT2R) gene. Methods The recombinant adenoviral vector, AdCMV-AT2R, containing rat AT2 receptor gene was constructed by homologous recombination, and transfered to rat VSMC in vitro. The expression of AT2R mR NA was detected by RT-PCR. The rate of expression and the change of cell cycle in VSMC were analysed by flow cytometry. These assays including cell devision index. Incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine(BrdU) and 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide( MTT) were used to determine the proliferation of VSMC. The modified Boyden's chamber method was used to test the migration of VSMC. The r e-organization of F-actin in VSMC was analysed by confocal microscopy. Results RT-PCR showed that the expression of AT2R mRNA increased substantially in transferred VSMC, and the peak value of expression rate is about 89.51% at 48 hours. When the expression of AT2R is at peak value, the ratio of S, G2 and M periods was reduced from 31.7% to 13.9%(P<0.05). The OD values of MTT and BrdU incorporation were reduced by 61.4% and 51.6% respectively(P<0.0(1). the number of VSMC migration was reduced by 62.2%(P<0.05) and the expression of F-actin was also decreased signific antly. Conclusion AdCMV-AT2R induced high level expression of AT2 receptor in cultured rat VSMC and its expression can significantly inhibit the proliferation and migration of rats VSMC in vitro.
