China Pharmacy 2016;27(22):3085-3087
OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of Suanzaoren decoction on learning and memory ability and brain neurotransmit-ters content of senile insomnia model rats. METHODS:Rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,positive group [Estazolam tablet,2 × 10-3 g/(kg·d)] and Suanzaoren decoction low-dose,middle-dose and high-dose groups [5,10,15 g/(kg·d)],with 10 rats in each group. Except for normal group,those groups were given D-galactose ih on the back+sleep depriva-tion to induce senile insomnia model. 6 weeks after modeling,treatment groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically for one week,and normal group and model group were given normal saline intragastrically. The escape latency,the percentage of swimming time and the time of original platform crossing were observed,and the contents of Glu and GABA in cerebral tissue were determined as well as the contents of IL-1β and 5-HT in hypothalamus. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,escape la-tency of rats prolonged and the contents of IL-1β and 5-HT in hypothalamus decreased,while the percentage of swimming time of original platform quadirant,the time of original platform crossing and the contents of Glu and GABA in cerebral tissue increased (P<0.05). Compared with model group,above index of treatment groups improved significantly,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Compared with positive group,the changes of above index were more significant in Suanzaoren decoction middle-dose and high-dose groups,with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Suanzaoren decoction could markedly enhance the learning and memory ability of senile insomnia model rats,and reduce neurotransmitters content and relieve the delayed neuronal damage which led by Glu and GABA.

Objective To study the feasibility and curative effect of laparoscopic radical resection of rectal carcinoma. Methods Twenty-eight cases undergoing laparoscopic radical resection (laparoscopic group) and 26 cases undergoing open radical resection (open group) were enrolled from January 2004 to December 2007. The following parameters: operation-related situations, postoperative recovery,result of radical resection, and postoperative outcome were compared between the two groups. Results The blood loss during operation in laparoscopic group was less than that in open group [(148.0±26.5) ml vs (396.0±79.6) ml, P<0.01]. The gastrointestinal tract and urination function in laparoseopic group recovered faster than those in open group[the time of diet in taking was (2.8±0.1) d vs (3.9±0.3) d,the time of detaining urethral catheter was(4.2±0.2) d vs (6.0±0.8) d] (P<0.05). The hospital stay was shorter in laparoscopic group than that in open group [(9.8±1.1) d vs(13.2±2.8) d, P<0.01]. The operation time, the number of cleared lymph nodes and complications of laparoscopic between the two groups were no significant difference (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in local recurrent and beyond metastases rates between the two groups. Conclusion Laparoscopic radical resection of rectal carcinoma parallels with open surgery is in safety and effectiveness, it has less traumatic and blood loss and faster in patients recovery.

Objective To explore the role of atorvastatin resist to tobacco smoking inducing endothelial inflammation .Meth‐ods HUVECs were divided into normal control group ,cigarette smoking extract(CSE) group and atorvastatin(AS)+CSE group . The cellular morphology of HUVECs in three group were observed ,then the expressions of VCAM‐1 and E selectin in HUVECs in three group were detected by western blot assay .Results In CES group ,drastic morphological change of HUVECs were observed . In AS+CSE group ,minor morphological change of HUVECs were observed .Also ,the protein levels of VCAM‐1 and E selectin were much higher in CSE group than that of in other two groups(P<0 .05) ,and the protein levels of VCAM‐1 and E‐selectin in AS+CSE group were a little higher than that of in control group ,but much lower than that of in CSE group(P<0 .05) .Conclusion Our results showed that atorvastatin might partly resist to tobacco smoking inducing endothelial inflammation .

In mammals,there are two RNA-binding proteins,Musashi (Msi)1 and Msi2,constituting the Msi family.Msi2 is mainly distributed among neural,hematopoietic,gastrointestinal,pancreatic and epithelial stein cells.It is of great importance to maintain the balance between proliferation and differentiation of stem cells and regulate their growth and development.The changed expression of this protein will induce genesis and progression of malignant tumor through many kinds of signal pathways.Thus,Msi2 is trusted to provide a predictive mark and a therapeutic target for related tumors.

Invasion of glioma is a complex process with multiple steps and multiple factors,including the inhibition of tumor cell adhesion,the degradation of extracellular matrix,the promotion of tumor cells migration and angiogenesis.The abnormal activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway is closely related to the invasion of glioma.The study of Wnt/β-catenin pathway affecting invasion mechanism of glioma will provide new ideas and targets for the treatment of glioma.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF), with unknown pathogeny, is an interstitial lung disease.The pathological features are diffuse epithelial-cell lesion, fibroblast proliferation, myofibroblast differentiation and excessive extracellular matrix deposition.CXCR4 is the predominant chemokine receptor on fibrocytes;CXCL12 is the only ligand of CXCR4.A large number of studies have shown that CXCL12/CXCR4 biological axis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.Under the regulation of hypoxia, HIF-1α and PI3K-Akt-mTOR path, CXCL12/CXCR4 biological axis promotes lung fibroblast proliferation, myofibroblast differentiation and extracellular matrix deposition, resulting in development and progression of IPF.

Osteopontin (OPN) is a secreted O-glycosylated phosphoprotein that exists in a variety of tissues and body fluids, with a variety of biological activity. Integrin α_vβ_3 is the main receptor. OPN mainly involves in cell proliferation, differentiation, migration and adhesion. The study of OPN at home and abroad mainly focuses on the bone resorption, angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, digestive system, urinary system, wound healing, skin fibrosis, liver fibrosis, kidney fibrosis, etc.But reports about OPN in pulmonary fibrosis are much less, now the relationships between OPN and pulmonary fibrosis are reviewed.
