Objective To investigate the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) signaling pathway in the endometrium of women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its effect and significance in the cause of hyperplasia and carcinoma;and investigate the factors which affect the activation of the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway. Methods Collected 52 patients diagnosed as PCOS who were taken dilation and curettage of uterus as study, while 32 non-PCOS patients matched as control group. Serum hormonal parameters, fasting blood glucose and insulin were measured in all patients. The PCOS patients were sub-group as insulin resistance group and non-insulin resistance group; all the patients were carried out pathology inspection of endometria, and the PCOS patients were sub-group as endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma group and normal endometrium group based on the outcome of pathology inspection. Western blot were performed to detect the expressions of ERK1/2 and phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2), the activation of ERK1/2. Results (1)The expression of pERK1/2 [(61 ±13)%] in the endometrium in PCOS group was higher than that in the control [(44 ±10)%, P ＜0.01]. (2)The expression of p-ERK1/2 was significantly increased in group of endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma [ ( 70 ± 11 )% ] compared to that in group of normal endometrium [ (55 ± 10)% ,P ＜ 0.01 ], while there were significant difference between group of insulin resistance [ (63 ± 13 )% ] and group of non-insulin resistance [ (55 ±7)%, P ＜0.01 ]. (3) Fasting insulin level, insulin area under the curve and body mass index were related to the expression of p-ERK1/2 in endometrium with PCOS, the correlation coefficient were 0.447, 0.456 and 0.381, respectively ( all P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions The MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in endometrium with PCOS was overactivation, which was related to the endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma; while the activation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway were effected by insulin resistance and hyperinsulinemia.

Objective To investigate the molecular mechanism of Loureirin A mediated anti-hepatic fibrosis by evaluting its effects on proliferation , secretion ofα-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1), and expression of rat hepatic stellate cells in vitro . Methods Primary hepatic stellate cells were isolated and cultured from Sprague-Dawley rats. After activating and inducing primary hepatic stellate cells from qHSC to aHSC, the activated hepatic stellate cells model in vitro was established. Then we observed the morphological changes of static hepatic stellate cells and activated hepatic stellate cells with inverted phase contrast microscope. Cultured hepatic stellate cells were treated with different concentrations of loureirin A and the inhibitory rate of HSCs proliferation was measured by MTT assay. The expression of Frizzled-4 was measured by western blot analysis. The content ofα-SMA and TGF-β1 in the cultured HSCs'supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) . Results Loureirin A the proliferation of inhibited activated hepatic stellate cells in a time-dose-dependent manner compared with the control group,IC50=0.30 μg/μL. After loureirinA treatment of the HSCs, western blot analysis showed that Frizzled-4 expression level was obviously lower than control group. Loureirin A also inhibitedα-SMA and TGFβ1 (P<0.05) secretion in the cultured HSCs'supernatant in different degree by the assay of ELISA. Conclusions The molecular mechanism of Loureirin A and Wnt signaling pathway mediated anti-hepatic fibrosis and anti-angiogenesis may involve down-regulation the expression of Frizzled-4, inhibiting the synthesis and secretion ofα-SMA,TGF-β1and the proliferation of HSCs.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of Tibetan medicine Zuotai on the activities of cytochrome oxidase (CYP1A2) and drug metabolism enzyme N-acetyltransferase 2(NAT2)in rats. METHODS:70 SD rats were equally randomized into a normal control (normal saline) group,the groups of single administration of low,middle and high-dose (1.2,3.8 and 12 mg/kg) Zuotai and the groups of multiple administrations thereof(once daily for 12 consecutive days). The rats were given drugs ig. caffeine(25 mg/kg)was given ig to the rats in the normal control group and the groups of single administration on the 2nd day,and to those in the groups of multiple administrations on the 13th day. 5 h later,their urine was collected and added with vitamin C based on 10 mg/ml. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was adopted to determine the cafeine metabolites contents of 5-acetami-do-6-formamido-3-methyl-uric acid(AFMU),1-methylxanthine(1X),1-methyl-uric acid(1U)and 1,7-dimethyl uric acid(17U) in rats’urine,and the activities of CYP1A2 and NAT2 were reflected through (AFMU+1X+1U)/17U and AFMU/(AFMU+1X+1U). RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,the(AFMU+1X+1U)/17U and AFMU/(AFMU+1X+1U)in rats were de-creased,namely the activities of CYP1A2 and NAT2 were lower in the groups of single administration of middle-dose Zuotai and multiple administrations of middle and high-dose Zuotai than in the normal control group. There was statistical difference (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Zuotai can obviously inhibit the activities of CYP1A2 and NAT2 in rats.

Objective: To examine the correlation between paliperidone plasma concentration and clinical efficacy in the patients with schizophrenia. Methods:Totally 50 schizophrenia patients were treated by paliperidone. The plasma concentration of paliperidone was monitored by RP-HPLC at the weekend of the 2 nd, 4 th and 6 th week, the clinical efficacy was evaluated using the positive and negative syndrome scale ( PANSS) , and the correlation between paliperidone plasma concentration and clinical efficacy was analyzed. Results:The mean plasma concentration of paliperidone was (31. 89 ± 17. 36) ng·ml-1 at the weekend of the 6th week, and no cor-relation was found between paliperidone plasma concentration and the clinical efficacy (r=0. 146,P=0. 074). Paliperidone plasma concentration in 12 patients with adverse drug reactions (ADR) was higher than that in the patients without ADR [(45. 87 ± 19. 21)ng ·ml-1 vs (27. 06 ± 11. 13) ng·ml-1, P <0. 01]. Conclusion: Paliperidone plasma concentration shows significant individual differences. With the increase of paliperidone plasma concentration, clinical efficacy isn't necessarily improved, while the incidence of ADR may be increased. Therefore, the monitoring of paliperidone plasma concentration is recommended to optimize the therapeutic reg-imen.

A yeast strain KM12 , which can convert conjugated anthraquinone of rhub arb to free anthraquinone , was screened. And it is identified as Kluyveromyces marxianus by 26S rDNA. The percentage of free an-thraquinone in total anthraquinone of rhub arb as an indicator was used to investigate the effect of culture medium component and fermentation processing conditions, such as seed age, fermentation time and liquid volume on con-version of conjugated anthraquinone by KM12.
