To study the effects of Roudoukou-8 San against hydrogen peroxide-induced cardiomyocyte in neonatal rats and to explore its mechanism. Cardiomyocytes were isolated and cultivated by neonatal rats and the injure models were established by H2O2. Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT)assay was used to detect the protective effects of Roudoukou-8 San on H2O2-induced cardiomyocyte. The effects of Roudoukou-8 San on myocardium morphology were observed under inverted microscope. The contents of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), creatine kinase(CK)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)in cell culture medium were determined by Automatic biochemical instrument; The levels of malonydialdehyde(MDA), superoxide dismutase(SOD)and NO in the cells were detected by kit method. The apoptotic morphology of cardiomyocytes was observed by Hoechst fluorescence staining. Cell apoptosis were measured by Annexin V and PI double staining and flow cytomety. 100μmol/L H2O2 for 2 h could cause about 50% of myocardial injury. In the inverted optical microscope, H2O2 model group showed increased cell gap, decreased cell count, cell cytoplasmic vacuoles and other obvious damage. Roudoukou-8 San protected cell from H2O2-induced morphlogical improved in different degrees, reduced the release of LDH, CK and AST content, reduced the content of MDA, NO in myocardial cells significantly and increased the activity of SOD. Roudoukou-8 San energy significantly inhibited H2O2 damage myocardial cell apoptosis. Our study suggested that Roudoukou-8 San can protect cardiomyocyte from H2O2-induced injury by improving the cell viability, reducing oxidative stress injury, inhibiting inflammatory reaction and inhibiting cell apoptosis.

Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebrovascular event that often is followed by permanent brain impairments. It is necessary to explore the pathogenesis of secondary pathological damages in order to find effective interventions for improving the prognosis of SAH. Blockage of brain lymphatic drainage has been shown to worsen cerebral ischemia and edema after acute SAH. However, whether or not there is persistent dysfunction of cerebral lymphatic drainage following SAH remains unclear. In this study, autologous blood was injected into the cisterna magna of mice to establish SAH model. One week after surgery, SAH mice showed decreases in fluorescent tracer drainage to the deep cervical lymph nodes (dcLNs) and influx into the brain parenchyma after injection into the cisterna magna. Moreover, SAH impaired polarization of astrocyte aquaporin-4 (AQP4) that is a functional marker of glymphatic clearance and resulted in accumulations of Tau proteins as well as CD3⁺, CD4⁺, and CD8⁺ cells in the brain. In addition, pathological changes, including microvascular spasm, activation of glial cells, neuroinflammation, and neuronal apoptosis were observed in the hippocampus of SAH mice. Present results demonstrate persistent malfunction of glymphatic and meningeal lymphatic drainage and related neuropathological damages after SAH. Targeting improvement of brain lymphatic clearance potentially serves as a new strategy for the treatment of SAH.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the Kechuansan acupoint plaster combined with acupoint injection of Chuankezhi in treating bronchial asthma. Methods:A total of 65 patients with bronchial asthma, who met the inclusion criteria in Shanghai Municipal Hospital of TCM from June 2018 to September 2018, were selected anddivided into control group and observation group by random number table method, 32 in the control group and 33 in the observation group. The control group was treated with acupoint injection of Chuankezhi, while the observation group was treated with acupoint plaster of Kechuansan combined with acupoint injection of Chuankezhi. Both groups were treated for 6 weeks. TCM syndromes and frequency of acute attackin one year before and after the treatment was scored and recorded. The patients' quality of life was assessed by Asthma Control Test (ACT) and the fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) level was measured by Sunvou-p100 nakurun breath analyzer to evaluate the clinical efficacy. Results:Through out the treatment, there were 3 dropouts in the observation group and 2 dropouts in the control group. 30 cases were completed in each group. The total effective rate in the observation group was 93.3% (28/30), and the control group was 73.3% (22/30). The difference was statistically significant ( χ2=4.320, P=0.038). After the treatment, the scores of TCM syndromes and ACT in the observation groups were significantly higher than those of the control group ( t values were 4.834 and 5.642, respectively, all Ps<0.01). The FeNO in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=3.180, P=0.020). The frequency of acute attack in one year in the observation group was less than that ofthe control group ( t=5.466, P<0.01). Conclusions:Acupoint plaster Kechuansan combined with acupoint injection of Chuankezhi can relieve the clinical symptoms of asthma, reduce the frequency of asthma attack, improve the control ability of asthma, reduce airway inflammation, which is more effective than using acupoint injection therapy alone.
