International Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine 2012;34(2):126-129
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of red peony root decoction (RPRD) on model rats with acute pancreatitis (AP),and the effect on the expression of NF-κB,TNF-α and IL-6.Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into five groups:normal control group (group A),AP model groups (group B,24 h; group C,72 h) and RPRD treatment groups (group D,24 h; group E,72 h).There were 8 rats in each group.The AP models were induced by intraperitoneally injecting with L-arginine.After the model was established,rats of group B and group C were treated with intra-gastric instillation of NS,and rats in group D and group E with RPRD.At 24 and 72 hours after induction of AP,rats in each group were sacrificed and blood samples were taken for the measurement of serum amylase,TNF-α and IL-6.The expression of NF-κB p65 protein in the pancreas were detected by Western Blot,and pathological status of the pancreas were analyzed.Results The serum amylase level in group B and group D was significantly higher than that in group A (P<0.05),and the level in group D was obviously lower than that in group B (P<0.05).The serum amylase level in group C and group E was decreased,and there was no difference between group A (P>0.05).The pathological severity and pathological scores of the pancreas in group D and group E were more lighter than those in group B and group C (P<0.05).The level of serum TNF-α and IL-6 was significantly decreased in RPRD treatment groups (P<0.05),group D compared with group B,[ (12.54±2.12)pg/ml,(552.88±81.27)pg/ml] vs.[ (20.53±4.16)pg/ml,(1255.75± 118.82)pg/ml]; group E compared with group C,[ (11.01 ±2.02)pg/ml,(582.87± 88.86) pg/ml] vs [ (23.85 ± 5.59) pg/ml,(1366.33 ± 163.16) pg/ml].The expression levels of NF-κBp65 protein in the pancreas of group D and group E were significantly lighter than those in group C at both time points (group D compared with group B,(0.07±0.055) vs (0.71 ±0.029),P<0.05; group E compared with group C,(0.15±0.038) vs (0.65±0.026).Conclusion RPRD may alleviate the pathologic changes in AP
2.Effects of Radix Paeoniae Rubra decoction on the expression of cvtokines in rats with acute pancreatitis
Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2009;18(11):1141-1145
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of Radix Paeoniae Rubra decoction (RPRD) on a-cute pancreatitis (AP) in rats, and to study effects of RPRD on the expression of NF-κB, TNF-α and IL-6. Method Forty Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were, randomly divided into five groups: normal control group (group A), AP model groups (group B, 24 h; group C,72 h) and RPRD treatment groups (group D, 24 h;group E,72 h).There were 8 rats in each group. The AP models were induced by intraperitoneally injecting with L-arginine. After the model was estabhshed, rats of group B and group C were treated with inn'a-gastric instillation of NS, and rats in group D and group E with RPRD. At 24 and 72 hours after induction of AP, rats in each group were sacri-riced and blood samples were taken for the measurement of serum amylase. The expression of NF-κB 1065 protein and TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA in the pancreas was detected by Western blotting and real-time quantitative PCR, re-spectively, and the pathological status of the pancreas was analyzed. Results The serum amylase level in group B and group D was obviously increased at 24 hours, and were significantly higher than that in group A (P < 0.05) ; the level in group D was lower thaa that in group B (P < 0.05). the level reduced at 72 hours, and there was no difference between group E and group C (P > 0.05). The pathological severity and the pathological score of pan-creatic tissue in group D and group E at 24 hours and 72 hours were more hghter than those in group B and hours C (P < 0. 05). The expression levels of NF-κB p65 protein (Western blotting) in the pancreas of group D and group E were significantly lighter than those in group B and group C at both time points (group D compared with group B, (0.07 ± 0.006) vs. (0.71 ± 0.029), P < 0.05;group D compared with B, (0.07 ± 0.006) vs. (0.71 ±0.029), P <0.05; group E compared with C, 0.18±0.014 vs. 0.65±0.026, P <0.05). The results of real-time quantitative PCR shown that the expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 mRNA in model treatment group were significantly stronger than that in RPRD group at the two time points (P < 0.05). Conclusions RPRD is effective for the treatment of AP rats to inhibit the activity of NF-κB. Inhibition of NF-κB offers a promising strategy to treat AP by down-regulating eytokine expression.

4.Study on effect of total matrines and extracts from Periplaneta americana on negative endometrial cancer cell JEC of progesterone receptors.
China Journal of Chinese Materia Medica 2015;40(11):2210-2213
To study the effect of total matrines and extracts from Periplaneta americana on negative endometrial cancer cell JEC of progesterone receptors. After detecting the effect of total matrine, extracts from P. americana and their combination on JEC cells' growth inhibition, cell cycle, P53 and c-erbB-2 gene protein expressions through MTT, flow cytometry instrument and Western blot method, the author found that, (1) MTT: total matrines and extracts from P. americana could inhibit the growth of JEC cell, with significant increase in the inhibitory effect in the combination group. (2) Flow cytometry instrument: the cell cycle at G0/G1 increased after the treatment with total matrines, the cell cycle at G2/M increased after the treatment with extracts from periplaneta americana, and the ratio of G0/G1 cell cycle in the combination group was significantly higher than the other groups, with inhibition in cell growth and statistical difference in inter-group comparison (P < 0.05). (3) Western blot: the expression level of P53 increased and c-erbB-2 decreased after the treatment with total matrines, extracts from P. americana and their combination on JEC cell, with statistical difference in inter-group comparison (P < 0.05). The above results suggested that total matrines, extracts from P. americana and their combination could induce cell cycle arrest and inhibit the growth of JEC cell by up-regulating P53 and down-regulating the c-erbB-2 level.

Objective To investigate the alteration of serotonin-producing gastric enterochromaffin (EC)cell in patients with functional dyspepsia(FD).Methods Fifteen healthy volunteers and 33 patients with FD were enrolled.Proximal gastric mucosal EC cells were countered after immunohisto- chemistry staining.The ultrastructure of EC cell was observed by electromicroscope.Results The EC cells in proximal gastric mucosa in patients with FD were significant higher than that in controls(12.5?2.1 vs 8.3?1.4,t=2.353,P<0.05),and the staining intensity of EC cell in patients with FD was also stronger than that in controls(3.72?0.42 vs 2.61?0.57,t=2.078,P<0.05).The more sever the gastric mucosal inflammation was,the more number of EC cells and the stronger staining intensity were.Under the electromicroscopy,more Golgi apparatus,mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum were found in EC cells.Special secreting particles were also found in cytoplasm.Conclusions EC cells may be involved in the pathogenesis of FD.The number of EC cell is related with the severity of gastric mucosal inflammation.

0.05). Regarding to the grade of irradiation mucositis, the majority of patients in the treatment group were at stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ,while those in the control at stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ(P0.05).No adverse drug reaction was observed in both groups during irradiation process.Conclusion:Actovegin can postpone the development of irradiation oropharyngeal mucositis and decrease the incidence of gradeⅢ and Ⅳmucositis.
