In this paper we analysed the influence of water—abstracts of Huangqi on the anti — tumour effects of polyresistin oral use. Results showed Huangqi could strengthen the anti—tumour effects of polyresistin. As in the group treated with Huangqi— polyresistin the reaction of spleen T cells to Con—A stimulation increased, but the viability of tumour cells decreased. Huangqi—Polyresistin prolonged the survival term of tumourborne mice and lowered their mortaity. Based on the facts that polyresistin is peptidoglycan,Polyresistin can activate monocyte—macrophage system and Huangqi induce the production of IFN?. We think the positive regulation of IFNr on the synthesis and cytotoxic—effect of TNF? may be one of the most important mechanisms of Huangqi to strengthen the anti— tumour effects of polyresistin.

Objective To explore the relationship between cholelithiasis and the function of sphincter of Oddi (SO). Methods To identify the existence of calculi, choledochoscopy was performed in patients 6 weeks after exploration of the common bile duct (CBD) and T tube drainage, in which 71 were patients with stones in gall bladder, CBD or intra-hepatic bile duct, and 9 with trauma of pancreas or liver.Biliary manometry was performed after choledochoscopy, and an additional manometry was applied after calculus removal if calculi were detected. The indices measured included SO basal pressure ( SOBP), amplitude of SO contractions (SOCA), frequency of SO contractions (SOF) and CBD pressure (CBDP). The patients with cholelithiasis were classified into cholecystolithiasis group, choledocholithiasis group, and hepatolithiasis group according to the position of calculi. Patients with trauma were assigned as the control group.Results All variables in 50 patients with choledocholithiasis were similar before and after the procedure.The variables in patients with cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis had no difference from those of the control (P > 0. 05 ). The SOBP and SOCA of patients in hepatolithiasis group were lower than those of the control group ( P < 0. 05 ), while no difference in SOF was detected (P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion The function of SO in patients with hepatolithiasis is abnormal ( decrease in SOBP and SOCA). Biliary manometry cannot be the reliable evidence for the existence of calculi in bile duct.

Objective: To investigate the apoptotic effects and its mechanisms on K562 cells caused by Interferon-alpha (INF-?) and Cytarabine (Ara-C). Methods: The variation of both morphology and inhibitory rate of K562 cells was observed in culture medium with IFN-? and various concentrations of Ara-C at different time in vitro. The variation of telomerase activity and P53 protein expression were detected before and after apoptosis occurred. Results: INF-? and Ara-C used concurrently could cause apoptosis and inhibit the growth of K562 cells as well as decrease the telomerase activity and increase P53 protein expression significantly. All these processes showed both in time- and dose-dependent manner. Conclusions: INF-? and Ara-C used concurrently can inhibit the growth of K562 cells and induce apoptosis, inhibiting the telomerase activity and increasing the expression of P53 protein may be one of the most important mechanisms.
