The study is aimed to provide the theoretical basis for exploiting and utilization of salt-alkaline soil and cultivating Belamcanda chinensis. In this study, we exerted exogenous substances SNP, Spd to relieve the damage of the mixing salt-alkaline stress on B. chinensis seedling which is NaCl, Na2SO4, NaHCO3 and Na2CO3 four kinds of salt molar ratio of 9: 1: 9: 1, salt concentration of 100 mmol x L(-1). The result illustrated that high pH stress is a major factor caused the salt-alkaline stress, the interaction between time and the concentration of each, treatment was observed, what is more, there are synergies between the salt and alkali stress. The content of B. chinensis seedling leaves' membrane peroxidation index (MDA, O2-*) and metabolites (soluble protein, soluble sugars, organic acids) are showing an upward trend in varying degrees under 100 mmol x L(-1) salt-alkaline stress. It is effective to reduce the content of MDA and O2-*. and improve the levels of metabolites, in which the SNP (0.05 mmol x L(-1)) and Spd (0.5 mmol x L(-1)) to alleviate damage effects is the best. Therefore we can hold the conclusion that SNP and Spd can effectively mitigate the damage of B. chinensis seedling on salt-alkaline stress, improve the resistance ability of B. chinensis seedling which can provide the scientific basis for the utilization of salt-alkaline soil, and the cultivation of B. chinensis.

There is endothelial hyperpermeability in sepsis,trauma,ischaemia-reperfusion injury,acute respiratory distress syndrome and thrombosis,while an important mechanism underlying this process is increased paracellular leakage of plasma fluid and protein because of cytoskeleton contration under the role of histamine, thrombin,vascular endothelial growth factor and activated neutrophil. Structural changes initiate with agonist-re-ceptor binding,followed by activation of intracellular signalling molecules,then phosphorylate alter the hyperme-ability of cell-cell adhesion. Targeting key signalling molecules that mediate endothelial-junction-cytoskeleton dissociation demonstrates a therapeutic potential to improve vascular barrier function during inflammatory injury.

AIM To explore the effects of Sini Decoction (Aconiti lateralis Radix Praeparata,Zingiberis Rhizoma,Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma) on rat myocardial fibrosis induced by isoproterenol.METHODS Forty SD rats were randomly divided into blank,model,captopril [100 mg/(kg · d)] and Sini Decoction [3.8 g/(kg · d)] groups,with ten rats in each group.Except for the blank group,the rest rats were given subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol [5 rg/(kg · d)] to prepare myocardial fibrosis model,and successive administration lasted for four weeks.At 20 h after the last administration,hemodynamics changes of heart were detected;heart weight indexes were calculated;the changes of myocardial pathological morphology were observed by HE and Masson staining;NO level in serum was measured by nitrale reduetase;SOD activity in serum was measured by xanthinoxidase method;MDA level in serum was measured by thiobarbituric acid method;the protein expressions of RhoA,ROCK1 and eNOS in myocardial tissue were detected by Western blot method.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the cardiac function of rats was significantly improved;the myocardial collagen content was significantly decreased;the MDA level in serum was obviously decreased;the NO level and SOD activity were significantly increased;the protein expressions of RhoA and ROCK1 in myocardium tissue were significantly reduced,and the protein expression of eNOS was markedly increased in the Sini Decoction group.CONCLUSION Sini Decoction can improve the isoproterenol-induced myocardial fibrosis in rats,and its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the RhoA/ ROCK signaling pathway,in turn,raising the expression of eNOS,which leads to reduced oxidative stress.

Objective To compare the effects of limited fluid resuscitation and aggressive fluid resuscitation in treatment of uncontrolled hemorrhagic traumatic shock,and to improve the cure rate.Methods One hundred and twenty patients with hemorrhagic traumatic shock on the basis of outpatient registration number of single and double were divided into limited fluid resuscitation group(limited group,56 cases) and aggressive fluid resuscitation group (positive group,64 cases),respectively.The preoperative blood lactic acid,base excess,prothrombin time,hemoglobin was compared and the preoperative infusion and the number of patients with death was recorded.Results The preoperative infusion in limited group was significantly less than that in positive group [(1 050 ± 212) ml vs.(2 120 ± 186) ml],the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.01).The mortality rate in limited group was significantly lower than that in positive group [12.50%(7/56) vs.28.12%(18/64)],the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.05).The preoperative blood lactic acid,base excess,prothrombin time in limited group were significantly lower than those in positive group [(3.31 ± 0.29) mmol/L vs.(5.78 ± 0.15) mmol/L,(5.42 ± 1.13) mmol/L vs.(9.86 ± 1.21) mmol/L,(11.7 ± 1.9) s vs.(18.1 ± 1.7) s],and the hemoglobin in limited group was significantly higher than that in positive group [(96 ± 18) g/L vs.(83 ± 20) g/L],the differences were statistically significant (P <0.01).Conclusions If hemorrhage is not controlled,early limited fluid resuscitation can maintain blood perfusion of vital organs,alleviate acidosis,reduce mortality and creat good conditions for advanced treatment.Limited fluid resuscitation is superior to aggressive fluid resuscitation in operative intervention for patients with uncomtrolled hemorrhagic traumatic shock.

Objective To study the relation between the effect of Curcumin on the proliferation and activation of hepatic stellate cells(HSC)and the expression of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor?(PPAR?).Methods The rat HSC was isolated from SD rats through in situ perfusion of liver with Pronase E and density-gradient centrifugation with Nycodenz.The subcultured cells were treated with corresponding compound.The inhibition effect on HSC proliferation was determined by MTT colorimetry.The total RNA was extracted by TRizol reagent,and the gene expression level of PPAR? and smooth muscle actin (?-SMA)were determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.The total cellular proteins were extracted and separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis,and the protein level of ?-SMA was determined by Western blotting.Results The MTT analysis results showed that Curcumin inhibited HSC proliferation between 10 and 50 ?mol/L in a dose-dependent manner.In the Day 1,4,7 of primary HSC and passaged HSC,the expression of PPAR? mRNA decreased with HSC activation extent;Curcumin could up-regulate the expression level of PPAR?.Curcumin suppressed the expression of ?-SMA not only at the gene level but also at the translation level.But all these effects of Curcumin on HSC could be blocked by the PPAR? specific antagonist GW9662.Conclusion The effect of Curcumin on HSC cell proliferation and activation is through the up-regulation of PPAR? signal.

Aim To study the effect of Curcumin on the apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells (HSC), and the correlation between the effect and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ?(PPAR?) signal.Methods The HSC was isolated from normal SD rats through in situ perfusion of liver with protease E and density-gradient centrifugation with Nycodenz.The subcultured cells were treated with corresponding compounds. Cell apoptosis was detected by Hoechst 33258 staining. PPAR? subcellular distribution was detected by immunofluorescent staining. Total RNA, total protein and nuclear protein were extracted respectively, target gene and protein levels were determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR or Western blot.Results There was nearly no apoptosis in activated HSC. Curcumin treatment induced the apoptosis of HSC, enhancing PPAR? nuclear translocation/redistribution.At the transcription and translation level,curcumin upregulated nuclear PPAR? expression, inhibited anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 expression, and promoted pro-apoptotic Bax expression; but all these effects could be reversed by PPAR? antagonist GW9662.Conclusions Curcumin induces HSC apoptosis by enhancing PPAR? expression and nuclear translocation/redistribution.
