1.Blood pressure regulation of statins
Chinese Journal of Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics 1999;0(04):-
Statins is first choice of hypercholesteroiemia. Recently, clinical investigations have shown that statins can correct blood pressure in hypertension patients accompanied with lipid abnormalities. This result can be observed not only in untreated patients but also in patients treated with antihypertensive drugs. But some researches did not support this result completely. To some extend, the mechanisms responsible for the hypotensive effect seem to be largely independent on the effect of statins on lipid profile, and may be related to the improvement of endothelial function and the regulation of angiotensin II receptors.

A new compound and five known compounds were isolated from the ethanolic extract of the leaves of Ilex pernyi Franch. Their structures were established on the basis of spectral analysis and identified as trans-isoeugenyl-α-L-arabinopynosyl(1→6)-β-D-glucopyranoside (1), kaempferol-3-O-sambubioside (2), quercetin-3-O-sambubioside (3), isoquercitrin (4), (+)-syringaresinol-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (5), amarantholidoside IV (6). Among them, compound 1 is a new phenolic glycoside, named as ilexperphenoside A, and compounds 2-6 were isolated from this plant for the first time.

Human parvovirus B19, generally referred to as B19 virus, has been closely associated with a variety of different autoimmune diseases due to the features of its capsid protein. B19 virus VP1 unique region protein that has sites of phospholipase A2 and several antigenic determinants is exposed on the outside of the viral capsid protein. As a result of that, B19 virus VP1 unique region protein can stimulate the host to produce autoantibodies, which induces and/or aggravates the autoimmune diseases. The biological characteristics of B19 virus VP1 unique region protein and its relationships with autoimmune diseases are de-scribed in this review based upon the published literatures and the work achieved by our research team. This review will be helpful to the prevention and treatment of B19 virus infection.

Objective To evaluate the role of miR219‐2‐3p in gastric cancer and the underlying mechanisms .Methods Real time RT‐PCR was employed to quantify the expression level of miR219‐2‐3p in matched tissues of 82 patients .In vitro cell proliferation , the expression of tumorgenesis related protein ERK1/2 was performed by overexpressing miR‐219‐2‐3p in gastric cancer cell line MGC803 .Results The expression level of miR‐219‐2‐3p significantly decreased in late stage gastric cancer (P< 0 .05) .The cell proliferation rate was significantly reduced in gastric cancer cell lines overexpressing miR‐219‐2‐3p .Furthermore ,the expression level of p‐ERK that activated form of ERK was significantly decreased whereas the total level of ERK was unchanged after overex‐pressing of miR‐219‐2‐3p in MGC803 cell lines .The expression level of p‐ERK was also increased in gastric cancer tissues .Conclu‐sion miR‐219‐2‐3p may acts as a tumor suppressor in gastric cancer by decreasing the activity of ERK 1/2 signaling pathway .

Objective: To establish the quality standard for Ehong capsules.Methods: A TLC was adopted to identify safflower, pueraria and prepared Radix Polygoni Multiflori.The contents of hydroxyl-safflor yellow A and puerarin in Ehong capsules were determined by a dual wavelength HPLC.A Wondasil C 18-WR (250 mm× 4.6 mm ,5 μm) was used as the analytical column, the mobile phase was composed of methanol acetonitrile-0.7% phosphoric acid aqueous solution (16∶3∶81), the flow rate was 1.0 ml·min-1 ,the detection wavelength was 403 nm for hydroxy safflower yellow A and 250 nm for puerarin.The column temperature was 30℃.Results: The TLC spots were clear and well-separated without negative interference.The calibration curves of hydroxyl-safflor yellow A and puerarin were linear over the ranges, the average recovery was 101.02% and 100.03% , and the RSD was 1.43% and 2.40% (n =6), respectively.Conclusion: The method is fast and accurate with good specificity, which can be used for the quality control of Ehong capsules.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of nasal colonization among health care workers(HCWs).METHODS Nasal swabs from 93 ICU workers and 98 other clinical workers were cultured and isolated and the tests of antibiotic susceptibility were performed by using paper diffusion method.RESULTS In total,214 isolates of 8 species from 191 health care workers were recovered,of which 187 isolates were coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(CNS)(the carriage rate of 93.71%) and 8 isolates were Staphylococcus aureus(the carriage rate of 4.19%).While the total Gram-negative bacteria carriage rate was 14.14%(27 isolates).The most frequent CNS species were S.epidermidis and S.haemolyticus.The antibiotic susceptibility profiles of S.aureus and CNS differed sharply: all 8 S.aureus strains were resistant to penicillin but were fully susceptible to oxacillin,in contrast,most of CNS were resistant to both penicillin and oxacillin.The carriage rate of CNS(60.2%)and Gram-negative bacteria(26.9%)in HCWs of ICU were higher than other HCWs(P
