AIM To study the effects of PDB on blood glucose. METHODS 3 groups of health mice and 3 groups of model mice were administered with high, mean and low doses of PDB compatibility groups (combined with glibenclamide 0.66 mg?kg -1) respectively for 15 days. The blood goucose variation of health and model mice was observed. RESULTS A low dose of PDB compatibility group decreased obviously blood glucose in the health mice. Its mean value was(3.10?0.14), while control group's blood glucose was 4.46?0.12, P

Objective: To observe the effect of ethanol extract of Crataegus Pinnatifida Bge. Var. major N. E. Br. from Hei-longjiang province on hemodynamics of acute myocardial ischemia caused by ligation and platelet aggregation induced by isoproterenol. Methods:After the model establishment of acute myocardial ischemia by ligation in rats, the systolic blood pressure ( SBP) ,diastolic blood pressure ( DBP ) , heart rate ( HR ) , left ventricular systolic pressure ( LVSP ) , left ventricular end-diastolic pressure ( LV-EDP) , left ventricular peak systolic ( +) and diastolic ( -) rate ( ± dp ·dt max-1 ) were recorded. Meanwhile, the acute myocar-dial ischemia model induced by isoproterenol was established. The platelet aggregation was measured by a platelet aggregation instru-ment. Results:The ethanol extract of Crataegus Pinnatifida Bge. Var. major N. E. Br. from Heilongjiang province could significantly increase the SBP, DBP, LVSP, +dp · dtmax-1 and HR, and reduce LVEDP,-dp·dtmax-1 in high dose group with statistical sig-nificance (P<0. 05). The medium dose group had small impact on the DBP, while showed statistically significant effect on the other hemodynamic indices. The low dose group had statistically significant effect on the SBP, LVSP and ± dp·dtmax-1 (P<0. 05), while showed no notable effects on the other indices. The results of aggregation rate in 1 min and 5 min after the determination and the maxi-mum one in the high and medium dose groups showed that the ethanol extract could significantly inhibit the platelet aggregation with sta-tistical significance (P<0. 05). Conclusion:The ethanol extract of Crataegus Pinnatifida Bge. Var. major N. E. Br. can improve the blood flow of acute myocardial ischemia in rats and reduce platelet aggregation after ischemia.

Objective To investigate the relationship between apolipoprotein E(Apo E) gene poly-morphism and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and e-valuate the correlative risk factors. Method 40 cases of type 2 diabetes with MCI and 80 cases of type 2 diabetes without MCI were enrolled in this study. The polymorphism of the Apo E gene was detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism(PCR-RFLP). According to the clinical data such as course of disease, plasma glucose, plasma fat and body mass index (BMI), the independent risk factors of T2DM and MCI were analyzed by non-conditional logistic regression. Results The frequency of Apo E ε_4 allele in the group of type 2 diabetes with MCI was higher than that without MCI ( 25.0% vs 10. 0% ), and the difference had statistical significance( P < 0. 01 ). The indexes of the statistical significant difference be-twcen the two groups were age, course of disease, postprandial blood glucose ( P2BG), HBA1C, BMI,family history of T2DM, hypertension, diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, Apo E gene. The independent risk factors included diabetic retinopathy ( OR = 3. 452, P < 0. 05 ), diabetic peripheral neuropathy( OR = 3. 252, P <0. 05), Ape E gene( OR = 2. 441, P < 0.01 ), HBA1C ( OR = 1. 372, P <0.05), P2BG(OR = 1. 194, P <0.05), age(OR = 1. 194, P <0.01) and course of disease(OR =1. 142, P <0. 05). Conclusion Apo E ε_4 allele has significant relationship with T2DM and MCI. The age, course of disease, control of plasma glucose, and microvascular complication of diabetes have relation-ship with the cognitive function.

OBJECTIVE:To virtually screen lignanoid compounds with inhibitory effect of histone deacetylase(HDAC)by vir-tual screening method. METHODS:Using“lignanoid”as keyword,requiring CNKI,VIP,PubMed and other database,lignanoid compounds were collected as ligand to establish ligand base, histone deacetylase receptor HDAC2 (PDB code:4LXZ) and HDAC8 (PDB code:1T69) were selected from PDB database,and then ligands and 3D active site of receptors were docked by SYBYL-X 2.0 software. The affinity of receptors to ligand was reflected by total score. RESULTS:345 lignanoid compounds, 4LXZ and 1T69 primary ligand were used to establish ligand base which included 347 ligands. Ligands No.275,271,110,200, 056,258,181,129,037,270,187 were demonstrated good affinity with receptors HDAC2 and HDAC8. Ligands and receptors residue were docked via hydrogen bond. CONCLUSIONS:Lignanoid compounds have inhibitory effect on HDAC;virtual screen-ing method is effective in natural product activity prediction,which can provide quick access to and theoretical guidance for new pharmacological studies of lignanoid compounds.

This study aimed to elucidate the effect of tryptophan (Trp) on gut hormone secretion as well as the roles of the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) and its downstream signaling pathway in gut hormone secretion by assessing swine duodenal perfusion in vitro. Swine duodenum was perfused with Krebs-Henseleit buffer as a basal solution. Various concentrations (0, 10, and 20 mM) of Trp were applied to investigate its effect on gut hormone secretion. A CaSR antagonist was used to detect the involvement of CaSR and its signal molecules. The 20 mM Trp concentration promoted the secretion of cholecystokinin (CCK) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), elevated the mRNA level of CaSR, and upregulated the protein levels of CaSR, protein kinase C (PKC), and inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R). However, NPS 2143, an inhibitor of CaSR, attenuated the CCK and GIP release, reduced the mRNA level of CaSR, and decreased the protein levels of CaSR, PKC, and IP3R with 20 mM Trp perfusion. The results indicate that CCK and GIP secretion can be induced by Trp in swine duodenum in vitro, and the effect is mediated by CaSR and its downstream signal molecules PKC and IP3R.

OBJECTIVE:To study the improvement effects of citalopram combined with huperzine A in aged depression model rats. METHODS:Aged rats were randomly divided into blank control group,model group,huperzine A group(0.3 mg/kg),citalo-pram group(5 mg/kg),and combination group(huperzine A 0.3 mg/kg+citalopram 5 mg/kg),10 in each group. Except for blank control group,rats in other groups received chronic unpredictable mild stress to reduce depression model. After modeling,rats were intragastrically administrated relevant drugs once a day,for 2 weeks. The depression,learning and memory behavior changes of rats in each group were observed by using open-field test,sucrose consumption test,tail suspension test,forced swimming test and Morris water maze test. RESULTS:Compared with blank control group,the horizontal crossing number,uprightness number,su-crose preference rate,crossing number in platform,percentages of target quadrant distance and time of rats in model group were ob-viously decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);immobility time of tail suspension and swimming,escape latency were obviously pro-longed(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group,the depression-related indexes of rats in citalopram group and combina-tion group were obviously improved(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and combination group had better effects;the learning and memory-re-lated indexes in combination group were obviously improved(P<0.05 or P<0.01),only crossing time in platform in huperzine A group and citalopram group were obviously increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01),and other learning and memory-related indexes had no obvious changes(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Citalopram combined with huperzine A can obviously improve the depression be-havior,learning and memory ability of aged rats with depression,showing better effects than citalopram alone.
