1.Drug-induced liver injury,drug disposition and metabolite profiling
Chinese Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology 2012;26(4):467-475
Drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a leading cause responsible for the failure of drug development and for the withdrawal of commercial drug products.The high frequency of DILI is due in part to the physiology of the liver,since in many cases elimination of drug molecules from the body is dependent on hepatic clearance via either metabolism or biliary excretion.Many of the mechanistic details underlying DILI remain poorly defined in spite of extensive studies of the pathogenesis.In this regard,metabolomics may become a powerful tool for investigation of DILI,leading to better mechanistic understanding and biomarkers identification.

Journal of Chongqing Medical University 2007;0(12):-
Objective:To establish the granulocyte-differentiation model of the HL60 cells which are treated with All-trans retinoic acid(ATRA),and to use the modified two-dimensional electrophoresis conditions to analyze the differences of protein expression between treated and untreated HL60 cells.Methods:HL60 cells were induced through treatment with All-trans retinoic acid(ATRA).For selection of the appropriate drug concentration and induction time,MTT and flow cytometry are used to detect the HL60cell proliferation and the expression of differentiation antigens CD11b respectively.Cellular chemical staining was used for the verification of the differentiation of the treated HL60 cells.The protein of HL60 cell lines could be separated by modified two-dimensional electrophoresis(2-DE).PDQuest software was used to analyze the different protein expression between treated and untreated HL60 cells.The protein was analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption -time of flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF).Results:ATRA could inhibit HL60 cell proliferation,and with the increase in drug concentration,the effect of inhibiting was more significant.Treated with 2? M ATRA for five days,there were more than 90% of HL60 cells expressing antigenCD11b.Cellular chemical staining also showed that ATRA could induce HL60 cells to granulocyte cells.By the analysis of modified 2-DE and PDQuest software,25 protein spots was detected in untreated cells,while 15 protein spots was promoted Some of them were oncogene protein and suppressor gene protein,while some of others are involved in apoptosis.Conclusion:ATRA could induce HL60 cells to granulocyte cells in selected drug concentration and induction time.Using the modified two-dimensional electrophoresis conditions,different protein expression can be found from the traditional two-dimensional electrophoresis.
3.Researching progress in selective laser trabeculoplasty for glaucoma
Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2014;32(2):178-181
Glaucoma is the second leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide.The treatment of glaucomatous eyes is a long-term procedure.Laser treatment is becoming one of the three major methods to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) of glaucomatous patients.Selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) mainly targets to the pigment cells on the trabecular meshwork and makes it easier for fluid to flow out of the front part of the eye,decreasing pressure in the eye.But,the actual mechanism of this surgery is below understood now.Compared with other laser therapy,SLT uses a lower-level laser to open the drainage angle of the eye,and therefore cause rare or slight complication,so it is thought to be a repeatable therapy to the patients who needs further treatment.The principle,clinical application,efficacy,safety and study progress about SLT for glaucomatous eyes are reviewed.
5. Expression of androgen receptor gene in thyroid tissues of patients with Graves disease
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 2010;28(7):768-771
Objective: To observe the serum testosterone (T) level and androgen receptor (AR) mRNA expression in peripheral leukocytes and thyroid tissues of patients with Graves disease, so as to investigate the relationship between the testosterone and androgen receptor with hyperthyroidism. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 8 female patients with Graves disease, 8 female patients with thyroid adenoma and 8 healthy control subjects; the patients were paired in gender and age. The plasma concentrations of testosterone were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); the [3 H]-T specific binding sites in the peripheral leukocytes were determined by radioligand binding assay; the expression of AR mRNA in peripheral leukocytes were determined by RT-PCR; and the level of AR in thyroid tissues was determined by immunohistochemistry method. Results: The plasma concentrations of T were (660±80) ng/L and(620±100) ng/L in Graves disease group and control group, respectively(P>0.05); the [3 H]-T specific binding sites were (381 ± 105) sites/cell and (572±141) sites/cell in peripheral leukocytes, respectively(P<0.05). The mRNA expression of AR in Graves disease group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). The result of immunohistochemistry showed that the level of AR in thyroid tissues was higher in Graves group than that in the control group. Conclusion: The plasma level of T in patients with Graves disease is similar to that of normal controls, but the mRNA expression of AR in peripheral leukocytes and thyroid tissue is higher in Graves disease group than in the control group, which is supposed to be a protective reaction. Moreover, the binding capability of AR is lower in Graves disease group than that in the control group, which is probably caused by the accelerated decomposition of AR.

7.Clinical Study on the Effect of Pre-intervention with Electroacupuncture on Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Reaction in Hepatic Ischemia-reperfusion
Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2017;36(2):175-179
Objective To observe the effect of pre-intervention with electroacupuncture on oxidative stress (OS) and inflammatory reaction after hepatectomy under portal occlusion.Method Thirty patients going to receive hepatectomy under Pringle's portal occlusion were randomized into an electroacupuncture group and a sham electroacupuncture group, 15 cases each. Three days prior to the surgery, the patients started to receive corresponding acupuncture or sham electroacupuncture treatment by selecting bilateral Riyue (GB24), Qichong (ST30) and Yanglingquan (GB34), once a day. The anesthesia method was general (inhalational and intravenous) anesthesia. Central venous blood was drawn before the surgery, and respectively 6 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after the surgery to examine the OS-relatedparameters, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA), as well as the inflammatory mediators, including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and IL-10.Result Compared to the sham electroacupuncture group, the SOD activity significantly increased (241±11.4 U/mL,180±12.6 U/mL,P<0.05) and the MDA level significantly dropped in the electroacupuncture group at 6 h and 24 h after the surgery(11.0±0.8 mmol/L,10.0±0.9 mmol/L,P<0.05); there were no significant between-group differences in the rest indexes (P>0.05).Conclusion Pre-intervention with electroacupuncture can up-regulate the activity of SOD and down-regulate the level of MDA in patients after hepatic portal occlusion, and thus partially reduce OS, but it doesn't shownoticeable effecton inflammatory response.
