OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for simultaneous determination of 5 saponins in Lonicerae Flos. METHODS:Using macranthoidin B as a reference,HPLC method was adopted to calculate the relative correction factor(RCF)of it to macran-thoidin A,dipsacoside B,macranthoside A and macranthoside B. The contents of above 4 saponins were calculated through RCF. Using the contents of saponins determined by external standard method as measured value,the calculated value was compared with measured value. RESULTS:The linear ranges of macranthoidin A,macranthoidin B,dipsacoside B,macranthoside A and macran-thoside B were 0.316-6.32 μg(r=0.9973),0.453-9.06 μg(r=0.9982),0.231-4.62 μg(r=0.9996),0.342-6.84 μg(r=0.9984) and 0.147-2.94 μg(r=0.9961),respectively. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2.0%. The recoveries were 97.74%-104.51%(RSD=2.37%,n=6)、96.70%-103.20%(RSD=2.37%,n=6)、96.12%-103.61%(RSD=2.45%, n=6)、98.80%-104.70%(RSD=2.32%,n=6)、99.21%-102.92%(RSD=1.39%,n=6),respectively. There was no statistical sig-nificance between calculated value and measured value(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,precise,stable and re-producible. It can be used for the determination of saponins in Lonicerae Flos.

Objective To investigate the expression of microRNA-134 ( miR-134 ) , CREB and pCREB in the temporal lobe tissue of patients and epileptic rats and to explore their roles in pathogenesis of epilepsy.Methods Tempo-ral lobe tissue samples of 14 patients with refractory epilepsy and 10 non-epileptic patients, and hippocampus and brain tis-sue samples of 42 rats were used in this study.Forty-two healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided in-to 6 epilepsy groups (24 h, 72 h, 7 d, 14 d, 30 d, and 60 d after kindling epilepsy) and a normal control group (n=6 for all groups) .The rat model of epilepsy was generated by intraperitoneal injection of 127 mg/kg lithium chloride and 16-20 h later, 35 mg/kg pilocarpine.In the temporal lobe tissue of patients and hippocampal tissue of rats, the expression level of miR-134 was detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction.The expression levels of CREB and pCREB were de-termined by Western blot, and CREB and pCREB localization was assessed by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with the control rats, the expression of miR-134 was significantly decreased in the temporal lobe tissue of experimental rats at 72 h,7 d,14 d, 60 d after kindling (P＜0.05),and no significant change at 24 h and 30 d after kindling (P>0.05). Expression of miR-134 in patients with refractory epilepsy was significantly lower than that of the controls ( P＜0.05 ) , while up-regulation of CREB expression was at the same time points (P＜0.05).Up-regulation of pCREB expression was at all the time points after kindling (P＜0.05).CREB and p-CREB expressions were seen in the nuclei of neurons, and significantly higher in patients with refractory epilepsy and epileptic rats.Conclusions The expression of miR-134 is sig-nificantly decreased and that of CREB and pCREB was significantly increased in the temporal lobe tissue of patients with re-fractory epilepsy and the hippocampal tissue of epileptic rats.These findings indicate that the signaling pathway of miR-134/CREB/pCREB may play an important role in the pathogenesis of epilepsy.

BACKGROUND: Abnormal hematopoietic microenvironment is an important factor causing dyshematopoiesis. However, no consensus has been reached on the sensitivity of hematopoietic stromal cells to irradiation.OBJECTIVE: To observe the changes of marrow stromal cells (MSCs) cycle and DNA content during the early stage of irradiation damage in mice, so as to further understand dyshematopoiesis due to radiation and provide scientific basis to avoid deleterious factors in hematopoietic environment.DESIGN: Completely randomized grouping and randomized controlled study based on the experimental animals.SETTING: Central laboratory of altitude military affairs medical department and altitude research institute of preventive medicine department, a military medical university of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: This study was carried out at the Experimental Animal Center of Third Military Medical University between October 2002 and April 2003. A total of 60 healthy male Kunming mice were randomly divided into irradiation damage group and healthy control group, each having 30 mice.METHODS: The 30 mice in irradiation damage group were exposed to 60Co-γ of irradiation at a dose rate of 1.27 Gy/minutes within a distance of 4 m. Then the mice' marrow cells were harvested at day 3 and day 7 after irradiation, and were cultured in vitro for 14 days and 21 days for observation. Meanwhile the other 30 healthy mice unexposed to irradiation were considered as normal controls.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Post-radiation number of MSCs colonies,cell cycle and DNA content.RESULTS: Although MSCs could grow and be adhered to walls after being exposed to irradiation of 5.0 Gy/s, the number of MSCs colonies was found significantly decreased compared to that of rnormal control group( P < 0.01 ).The colony number of the MSCs irradiated for 7 days obviously increased than that of MSCs irradiated for 3 days; however, MSCs recovered slowly and resulted in prolonged culture time, indicating the inhibited proliferation of MSCs due to irradiation damage. Results of flow cytometry showed that cells in G2+ M phase(2.60±0.41, 4.20±1.27) and DNA content (58.40±0.79,61.17 ± 1.35) in irradiation groups after 3-day and 7-day irradiation were obviously lower than those of normal control group(12.60 ±0. 75, 78.57±0. 83)(P <0.05-0.01).CONCLUSION: MSCs have relatively high sensitivity to irradiation damage and longer persisting period.

Objective To identify the susceptibile genes in a rat model for rheumatoid arthritis (RA),to determine whether sex affects disease onset and to define the mechanisms that impacts congenic genes on arthritis. Methods Arthritis-susceptible DA rats were compared with sex/age-matched congenic rats in which alleles were substituted with alleles from arthritis resistant PVG rats. Incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) was injected from the base of the tail. Arthritis was visually scored, the messenger RNA (mRNA) levels of congenic genes and cytokine were determined by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. The differences between two groups were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U test. Results In oil-induced arthritis (OIA), male congenic R16 rats deviated profoundly from DA rats by decreased arthritis severity (5.9±3.8 vs 9.3±2.3, P＜0.05 ), and markedly reduced lymph node mRNA levels for calsyntenin-3 (Clstn3) gene (0.7±0.4 vs 2.2±1.6, P＜0.01 ) and interleukin (IL)-17 (1.4±2.2 vs 2.7±2.9, P＜0.05) and IL-1β (1.5±2.1 vs 2.3±2.5,P＜0.05) levels. Conclusion Rat Clstn3 gene regulates the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines of OIA in male rats. The effect of arthritis-susceptible gene Clstn3 is gender-specific.

Objective To evaluate the effects of stepwise and fine-grained dietary management on the diet control of liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage. Methods Eighty liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage were assigned to experimental group (41 cases) and control group(39 cases) by random digits table method. The patients in experimental group were treated with stepwise and fine-grained dietary management and the patients in control group were given conventional dietary treatments. The compliance diet, mastery of nutrition knowledge, malnutrition risk at admission, intake food, discharge and 2 months after discharge between two groups were monitored. The incidence of rebleeding was tracked after 1 year of discharge. Results The incidence of malnutrition risk in Child-Pugh class C was higher than that in Child-Pugh class B( Z=-4.3, P<0.05 ) . The incidence of malnutrition risk in patients with high education level was lower than that in patients with lower education( r=-0.453, P<0.05 ). The experimental group significantly outperformed control group in mastery of nutrition knowledge at discharge:80(70, 84) points vs. 52(42, 64) points, in compliance diet and malnutrition risk after 2 months after discharge:86(76, 91)%vs. 53(46,57)%, 1(1, 2) points vs. 2(1,3) points, the rebleeding rate in experimental group was significantly less than that in control group within 1 year after discharge 14.6%(6/41) vs. 35.9%(14/39), and the differences were statistically significant between two groups ( χ2 = 4.226- 51.232, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Stepwise and fine-grained dietary management can improve the mastery of nutrition knowledge, compliance diet and nutritional status, and reduce the occurrence of rebleeding, worth popularizing further in clinical care of liver cirrhosis patients complicated with gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
