Objective To investigate the effect of IH764-3 on the leukocyte-mediated hypoxia-reoxygention injury of human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMVEC). Methods MTT assay was used to detect the survival of HBMVEC; gelatin zymography was used to check the activity of MMPs. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in leukocyte was determined via commercially available kit,and the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify the contents of TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2 and INF-? in leukocyte culture medium.Results Survival of HBMVEC was impaired by hypoxia-reoxygenation,which was aggravated by supernatant of activated leukocytes but was attenuated by IH764-3. Leukocytes produced high level of MMP-9,ROS and cytokines (TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2,IFN-?) after hypoxia-reoxygenation,the process was inhibited by IH 764-3. Furthermore,IH764-3 could effectively reverse hypoxia-reoxygenation injury of HBMVEC with supernatant of activated leukocytes. Conclusion IH764-3 can protect HBMVEC from leukocyte-involved hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by attenuating the activation of leukocytes and inhibiting the pathogenic effects of leukocytes products.

Objective To observe the clinical efficiency and safety of docetaxel(TXT) or irinotecan(CPT-11) combined with oxaliplatin(L-OHP) and S-1 in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.Methods Totally 62 cases of patients with stage Ⅲ B-Ⅳ advanced gastric cancer in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of our hospital were collected from 1st January 2010 to 1st March 2016,and were divided into two groups:TXT combined with L-OHP and S-1 group (modified DCF group,33 patients) and CPT-11 combined with L-OHP and S-1 group (modified ICF group,29 patients).All patients in the two groups were completed at least 1 cycle of chemotherapy until disease progression or intolerable toxicity.At the end of chemotherapy,the curative effects,untoward reactions and effects of surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy treatment were compared and analyzed.Results The objective response rate (ORR) in the modified DCF group(60.6％) was higher than that in the modified ICF group (51.7％),while no statistically significant difference was found in short-term effects between the two groups (Z=-0.837,P=0.403).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidences of main untoward reactions,including gastrointestinal reaction,myelosuppression,neurotoxicity,alopecia and liver function abnormal,between the two groups (P＞0.05).The radical resection rate of the modified DCF group and the modified ICF group after neoadjuvant chemotherapy was 66.7 ％ and 62.1 ％ respectively,the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (x2=0.143,P=0.706).After neoadjuvant chemotherapy,the main postoperative complications were anastomotic leakage,anastomotic obstruction,abdominal infection,pulmonary infection,incision infection and gastric motility disorder,and no statistically significant difference was found in the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (P＞0.05).The was no statistically significant difference in quality of life after chemotherapy between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion TXT or CPT-11 combined with L-OHP and S-1 has similar efficacy in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer,which could reduce tumour size,improve radical resection rate.Furthermore,untoward reactions of the two neoadjuvant chemotherapy protocols are almost the same,and can be tolerated.It is worthy of further research and application.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the nerve function and the sorbitol concentrations of erythrocyte and sciatic nerve, and to evaluate the effects and mechanism of a formulae of Chinese medicine, Shen Mai Huo Xue Yin (a decoction, it ingredients including ginseng, tuber of dwarf lilyturf and safflower) on diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Methods The rats were divided into 3 groups: normal rats, diabetic rats and diabetic rats treated with Shen Mai Huo Xue Yin. The diabetes of rats was induced by streptozotocin intraperitoneally. Motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV) of sciatic, sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV) of caudal nerve and the H reflex were detected with evoked electromyogram; The sorbitol concentrations of erythrocyte and sciatic nerve was measured by spectrophotography. Results The sorbitol concentration of erythrocyte was positively correlated with that in the sciatic nerve, and the sorbitol concentration of erythocyte and sciatic nerve were negatively correlated with SNCV and positively with H reflex. The SNCV reduced significantly and the sorbitol concentration of both erythrocyte and sciatic nerve increased significantly in diabetic group as compared with those in normal group. The SNCV and sorbitol concentrations of sorbitol both erythrocyte and sciatic nerve in diabetic group were significantly improved after treated with Shen Mai Huo Xue Yin. Conclusion The sorbitol concentration in erythrocyte reflects the level of that in sciatic nerve and the lesion degrees of DPN. Shen Mai Huo Xue Yin alleviates the lesion of DPN in the early stage.
