OBJECTIVE:To study the preventive effect of Qingnao tablet on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. METHODS:Rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,Naoluotong capsule group (positive control, 0.05 g/kg),Qingnao tablet high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups(1.52,0.76,0.38 g/kg),10 in each group. Rats in all ad-ministration groups were intragastrically given relevant medicines,rats in sham operation group and model group were intragastrical-ly given equal volume of sodium carboxymethylcellulose solution,once a day,for 5 d. After 1 h of last administration,all rats were induced for cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model by suture-occluded method except for sham operation group. After 22 h of ischemia-reperfusion,neurological function deficit scoring was conducted;the pathological changes of the hippocampus were ob-served;superoxide dismutase (SOD),adenosine triphosphate (ATP),lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)levels in brain tissue were measured. RESULTS:Compared with sham operation group,rats in model group appeared dif-ferent degrees of neurological deficits(score declined),sparse neurons,irregularly arranged in hippocampus as well as other patho-logical changes;ATP,SOD levels in brain tissue were decreased(P<0.01),LDH,TNF-α levels were increased(P<0.01). Com-pared with model group,neurological function deficit scores in Qingnao tablet doses groups were increased(P<0.05),neurologi-cal deficits were improved. Except for sham operation group,brain tissue indexes in other administration groups were significantly improved(P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Qingnao tablet can increase ATP and SOD levels in brain tissue homogenate of model rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,decrease LDH and TNF-α levels,and obviously improve rats'cerebral ischemia-re-perfusion injury.

OBJECTIVE: To study the protective efffects of Chailing Guiqi Decoction (CLGQD) combined with lumbrukinase on renal function in rats with adriamycin nephropathy. METHODS: Thirty-six SD rats were randomly divided into four groups: normal control group, untreated group, simvastatin-treated group and CLGQD -treated group. Adriamycin nephropathy was induced by intravenous injection with 5 mg/kg adriamycin. After seven-day treatment, quantitative measurement of 24-h urine protein was determined with trichloroacetic acid, and serum total protein (TP), albumin (Alb), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were assessed using automatic biochemistry analyzer. The pathomorphological changes of renal tissues were observed with light and electron microscopes. RESULTS: In the untreated group, the 24-h urine protein excretion, serum TC, TG, LDL, Cr and BUN were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the serum TP, Alb, HDL were significantly lower than those in the normal control group (P<0.01). In the CLGQD-treated group, the 24-h urine protein excretion, serum TC, TG, LDL, Cr and BUN were significantly lower as compared with those in the untreated group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the serum TP, Alb and HDL were significantly higher as compared with those in the untreated group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The pathomorphological findings of the renal tissues under the light microscope in the untreated group showed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in a few of glomerulus, degenerated and swelled proximal tubular epithelial cells, proteins in cast formation in some renal tubules and scattered fibrosis in interstitial tissues of the kidney, while the electron microscope images showed the fusion of foot processes in glomerular epithelial cells. The pathomorphological changes in the CLGQD-treated group were slighter than those in the untreated group. CONCLUSION: CLGQD combined with lumbrukinase can reduce proteinuria, regulate lipid metabolism, protect renal function, and delay progressive renal damage in rats.

Secretory anti-gp96 scFv fragment was expressed in Pichia pastoris to obtain a small molecule antibody that specifically recognizes heat shock protein gp96. The gp96-scFv fragment gene was synthesized and cloned to Pichia pastoris expression plasmid pPICZa-A. Pichia pastoris X33 was electroporated with the linearized recombinant expression vector, and expression of gp96-scFv fragment was induced by methanol. The His-tagged recombinant protein was then purified by affinity chromatography and analyzed with SDS-PAGE and Western blotting assays. The biological activities of recombinant gp96-scFv fragment were determined by Western blotting, Immunofluorescence, ELISA and FACS assays. The gp96-scFv fragment was expressed successfully in Pichia pastoris. About 50 mg of recombinant protein could be purified from 1 liter of the Pichia pastoris culture supernatant. Its molecular weight was about 15 kDa. The gp96-scFv fragment could specifically bind to gp96 protein by Western blotting, immunofluorescence, ELISA and FACS analyses. Pichia pastoris-expressed gp96-scFv fragment specifically recognizes gp96 protein, which could be used for Western blotting, Immunofluorescence, ELISA and FACS analyses.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of salvianolate on rats with postoperative intestinal adhesion and to explore the prevention mechanism. METHODS: Forty SD male rats with intestinal adhesion were randomly divided into four groups: untreated group, low-dose salvianolate-treated group (12 mg/kg), medium-dose salvianolate-treated group (24 mg/kg) and high-dose salvianolate-treated group (48 mg/kg), with another ten SD male rats as normal control. Intraperitoneal injection of glucose was administered to the rats in the normal control group and the untreated group, and intraperitoneal injection of salvianolate was administered to the rats in the low-, medium- and high-dose salvianolate-treated groups. They were all treated for 8 days and once a day. On the eighth day after surgery the blood samples of each group were collected. Grades of intestinal adhesion were ranked by macroscopic observation. The adhesive tissues between viscera and belly wall were taken for pathological observation. The levels of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta), interleukin-4 (IL-4) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: Salvianolate can significantly reduce the extent of postoperative intestinal adhesion, obviously decrease the levels of IL-1beta, TNF-alpha and inhibit the hyperplasy of fibrous connective tissue. However, there was no significant impact on the level of IL-4. CONCLUSION: Salvianolate can reduce the extent of postoperative intestinal adhesion, decrease the expression of IL-1beta and TNF-alpha and inhibit the hyperplasy of fibrous connective tissue. This may be the mechanism of salvianolate in preventing intestinal adhesion.

Objective:To compare the perioperative outcomes and safety of percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN) and retrograde ureteral stenting (RUS) in the treatment of acute obstructive upper urinary tract infection.Methods:A comprehensive search was performed on the MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials to identify relevant literatures. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to August 2022. Inclusion criteria: ①Randomized controlled trial (RCT) of PCN and RUS in the treatment of acute obstructive upper urinary tract infection; ②Studies provided accurate data for analysis, including the total number of subjects and the results of each index; ③The full text of the study was available, and different literatures published in the same cohort were included in the newly published data. ④The observation indexes included the time for the recovery of body temperature, creatinine, leukocyte, operation, radiation exposure, postoperative fever, postoperative pain, and the incidence of postoperative fistulotomy or stent displacement. Exclusion criteria: ①non-RCT study; ②unable to obtain the full text. Two researchers independently screened the literature and evaluated the literature quality, and all the statistical data were analyzed by RevMan5.3 software.Results:Seven trials enrolled 727 patients were included in the meta-analysis, 412 in the PCN group and 315 in the RUS group included. Meta-analysis revealed that the advantages of PCN were lower incidence of postoperative hematuria ( OR=0.54, 95% CI 0.30-0.99, P=0.040) and lower incidence of insertion failure ( OR=0.42, 95% CI 0.21-0.81, P=0.010), but the fluoroscopy time of RUS group was shorter than that of PCN group ( MD=0.31, 95% CI 0.14-0.48, P<0.01). Moreover, there was no significant difference in time to normalization of temperature, time to normalization of creatinine, time to normalization of WBC, operative time, postoperative fever, postoperative pain, postoperative nephrostomy tube or stent slippage rate between the two surgical methods( P>0.05). Conclusions:The radiation exposure time of PCN was longer than that of RUS, but the incidence of postoperative hematuria and catheterization failure was lower than that of RUS.
