Objective To observe the effects of Yishen-Pinggan dcoction on the urine microalbumin and the expression of ACE2, AngⅡin the spontaneously hypertensive rat kidney(SHR);to observe the kidney level hepatic side of the protective effect of early renal in SHR hypertension. Methods The same old male SHR and normal rats(Wistar-Kyoto rats, WKY) for the study, at 10 weeks of age, SHR rats were randomly divided into a model group, a Chinese medicine group, and a lotensin group;while WKY rats were served as a normal control group(n=8). They were continuously treated for 12 weeks. Urine mAlb and β2-MG of rats were quantified at pre-experiment and after experiment, immuno-histochemical detection of renal ACE2 and AngⅡwere performed, the obtained results were statistically analyzed by computer image analysis. Result At the 12th week, compared with urinary mAlb(509.3±160.3)ng/ml,β2-MG(0.150±0.037)μg/ml, Ang kidneyⅡ(7 174.24±1 068.99)μm2,kidney ACE2(2 158.90±376.60)μm2 in the WKY group, the urinary mAlb(908.3 ±13.2)ng/ml, β2-MG(0.378±0.099)μg/ml, kidney AngⅡ(11 085.37±1 398.03)μm2 in the hypertension model group were significantly higher(P<0.01), and kidney ACE2(1 375.77±466.21)μm2 was decreased significantly(P<0.01); compared with hypertensive model group, rat urinary mAlb(574.9±197.8)ng/ml,β2-MG(0.198±0.040)μg/ml, kidney AngⅡ(8 462.91±781.23)μm2 in Chinese medicine group, rat urinary mAlb(644.4±147.5)ng/ml, β2-MG(0.206±0.044)μg/ml, kidney AngⅡ(8 696.88±679.70)μm2 in lotensin group were significantly decreased(P<0.01); while kidney ACE2(1 904.02 ± 454.08)μm2 in Chinese medicine group, kidney ACE2(1896.11±445.43)μm2 in lotensin group was significantly increased(P<0.01). Conclusion Yishen-Pinggan decoction can reduce the SHR urinary microalbumin excretion so as to reduce high blood pressure early kidney damage; its role may be associated with its increasing local renal ACE2 expression and reducing the kidney Ang Ⅱ expression.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of IFN combined with adefovir dipivoxil in the treatment of patients with the hepatitis B and hepatitis C overlapping infection.Methods 90 cases of hepatitis B overlapping infection of hepatitis C were divided into control group(n =43) and treatment group(n =47).The control group was treated with IFN,the treatment group was treated with IFN and adefovir dipivoxil.Results The treatment group was better than the control group in the liver function,HBV DNA,HCV RNA.At the 24th weeks,the negative rates of HBV DNA and HCV RNA in the control group were 14 (32.6%) and 18 (41.9%),while there were were 38 (80.9%) and 34(72.3%) in the treatment group.There was significant differences between the two groups(x2 =6.43,5.28,all P < 0.05).Conclusion The clinical efficacy of IFN combined with adefovir dipivoxil for the hepatitis B and hepatitis C overlapping infection patients was significant better than IFN,which is worthy of clinical application.
