The treatment and signaling pathway regulation effects of kidney- tonifying traditional Chinese medicine on osteoporosis have been widely studied, but without a systematic summary currently. This review comprehensively collected and analyzed the traditional Chinese medicine on the treatment and signaling pathway regulation of osteoporosis in recent ten years, such as Epimedium, Drynariae Rhizoma, Cnidium, Eucommia, Psoralen and Dipsacus. Based on the existing findings, we concluded the following conclusions: (1) kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine treats osteoporosis mainly through BMP-Smads, Wnt/β-catenin, MAPK, PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to promote osteoblast bone formation and through OPG/RANKL/RANK, estrogen, CTSK signaling pathway to inhibit osteo?clasts of bone resorption. ① Epimedium, Drynariae Rhizoma, Cnidium and Psoralen up-regulate the key proteins and genes of BMP-Smads and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways to promote bone formation.② Epimedium, Drynariae Rhizoma, Cnidium, Eucommia, Psoralen, Dipsacusinhibit the bone resorption by mediating the OPG/RANKL/RANK signaling pathway. (2) Kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine prevent and treat osteoporosis through a variety of ways: Icariin, Naringin, Osthol, Psoralen can regulate BMP-Smads, Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway to promote bone formation, but also activate OPG/RANKL/RANK, CTSK and other signaling pathway to inhibit bone resorption. (3) The crosstalk of the signaling pathways and the animal experiments of the traditional Chinese medicine on the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis as well as their multi-target mechanism and comprehensive regulation need further clarification.

OBJECTIVETo observe morphological changes of enteric nervous system (ENS)-interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC)-smooth muscle cell (SMC) structure injury in deep muscle nerve plexus offunctional dyspepsia (FD) rats, and the repair of Shuwei Decoction (SD) on it, and to explore its effecton FD.

METHODSTotally 72 rats were randomly divided into the control group, the model group, the lowdose SD group, the medium dose SD group, and the high dose SD group, the Mosapride group, 12 ineach group. Rats in the low dose SD group, the medium dose SD group, and the high dose SD group were intragastrically fed with SD at 0.767, 1.534, 3.068 g/mL, respectively. Rats in the Mosapride group were intragastrically fed with Mosapride (1.37 mg/kg). FD rat model with Gan depression Pi deficiency syndrome (GDPDS) was established using complex pathogenic factors. Corresponding liquors were respectively administered to rats in corresponding groups from the 3rd day after modeling. Distilled water(10 mL/kg) was administered to rats in the control group and the model group, once per day for 14 successive days. Rats were sacrificed and small intestine tissues collected for observing ENS-ICC-SMC structure injury using immunofluorescence double labeling, laser scanning confocal microscope, and transmission electron microscope at day 15. Repair of SD on it was also observed.

RESULTSENS-ICC SMC structure was incomplete, with obvious injury in mutual link of ICC, ICC, SMC, and connecting structure. ENS-ICC-SMC structure was more complete in high, medium, and low dose SD groups, with close link of ICC and SMO. Their connecting structures were in good conditions.

CONCLUSIONSD could keep the integrity of ENS-ICC-SMC structure by promoting regeneration and morphology of ICC, thereby, improving gastrointestinal movement disorder and showing therapeutic effect on FD.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of physicochemical properties of drug on its permeability through buccal mucosa.

METHODSBenzoic acid, caffeine and hydrocortisone were selected as model drugs and their permeability coefficients through isolated porcine buccal mucosa were determined.

RESULTThe permeability coefficients of benzoic acid, caffeine and hydrocortisone through isolated porcine buccal mucosa were (1.01 x 10(-4)+/-1.64 x 10(-5))cm.s(-1)ì(2.75 x 10(-5)+/-1.79 x 10(-6))cm.s(-1) and (2.49 x 10(-5)+/-6.32 x 10(-6))cm.s(-1), which were 14,989 and 389 times as those through human skin, respectively.

CONCLUSIONThe permeability of drugs through buccal mucosa seems to be much better than that through human skin.

ABSTRACT:Objective To investigate the effects of total flavones of oldenlandia diffusa (FOD)on epithelial-mesenchymal transition in hepatocellular cancer cell line MHCC97-H.Methods TGF-β1 induced EMT in routinely cultured liver cancer cell line MHCC97-H;then MHCC97-H cell was divided into 5 groups:normal control group, TGF-β1 group,TGF-β1 + FOD group,TGF-β1 + 5-FU group,and TGF-β1 + FOD + 5-FU group.After 48 h of treatment,the invasion ability of MHCC97-H cell was detected by Transwell;the proteins of E-cadherin and vimentin were determined by Western blot.Results Compared with the normal form of MHCC97-H cell line,the cell had obvious long fusiform after TGF-β1 induction,and the invasion ability enhanced (P = 0.02 ).But after treatment,the invasion ability of MHCC97-H cell decreased in FOD group and 5-FU group compared with that in TGF-β1 group (P = 0.03,P = 0.02 ),and decreased more significantly in FOD + 5-FU group (P = 0.01 ).The expression of E-cadherin at the protein level decreased significantly (P = 0.01 )in TGF-β1 group,which was abolished in FOD group (P =0.03 )and 5-FU group (P = 0.02 ).The expression of vimentin at the protein level increased significantly (P =0.01)in TGF-β1 group,which was abolished in FOD group (P =0.04)and 5-FU group (P =0.03)and more obviously in FOD+5-FU group (P =0.01).Conclusion FOD can reverse the invasion of MHCC97-H cells in EMT induced by TGF-β1 through decreasing the expression of E-cadherin protein and inhibiting the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of MHCC97-H cell.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of voice disorder and voice fatigue mental state in the pri-mary school teachers in a district of Chengdu.Methods A random sampling survey included 389 teachers from a dis-trict of Chengdu after they filled out the throat symptoms questionnaire,carried out voice fatigue tests,and strobo-scopic laryngoscopy.Results The most common voice of discomfort symptoms was hoarseness,followed by sore throat,dry throat and vocal fatigue.There were 189 teachers,48.5%,with voice disorders as the voice disorder group)and 200 teachers without throat and voice disorders as the control group.The failure rate was significantly higher at 80 dB than 75 dB,and for the study group,the failure rate was higher than that of the control group.The difference was statistically significant in 1,2 and 10 minutes between the two groups(P <0.05).Conclusion Voice fatigue is very common in the primary school teachers and when high volumes are required,the voice fatigue is more serious.To reduce voice fatigue and the incidence of primary school teachers'voice disease,we should strengthen the teacher's voice health care.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect and safety of periodontal-orthodontic treatment in patients with aggressive periodontitis (AgP) and malocclusion.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted in 25 AgP patients,who had received periodontal-orthodontic treatment in Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology.Clinical indexes,including probing depth (PD),bleeding index (BI) and percentage of sites with bleeding on probing (BOP％) were evaluated at three time points:Baseline (T0);active periodontal treatment finished and before orthodontic treatment (T1);and after orthodontic treatment (T2).Also changes of ratio of the residual alveolar bone height (RBH) and the occurrence of root resorption were evaluated by periapical radiographs.Results:(1) Compared with T0,all the clinical parameters including PD,BI,BOP％ and percentage of sites with PD ＞ 3 mm were significantly improved (P ＜0.001).(2) Significant difference was observed in the average RBH between T0 (68.37％ ± 15.60％ and T2 (70.27％ ± 14.23％).RBH in upper incisors [(58.79％ ± 16.71％ at T0,65.54％ (55.74％,78.13％) at T2],upper canines [77.62％ (66.06％,87.17％) at T0,79.57％ (69.75％,86.52％) at T2] and upper molars [74.30％ (61.69％,84.45％) at T0,76.76％ (68.12％,85.09％) at T2] showed significant increase (P ＜ 0.05).(3) After orthodontic treatment,varying degrees of root resorption occurred in (23.94％ ± 13.45％) of teeth per capita,among which the lower and upper incisors showed the highest incidence (68.48％ and 65.31％ in homogeneous teeth,respectively).Conclusion:After active periodontal treatment,orthodontic treatment in AgP patients had not aggravated inflammation and alveolar bone resorption;root resorption occurred in two-thirds of incisors approximately.
