To optimize the water extraction process for glycyrrhiza. Methods: HPLC was used to determine the con-tents of glycyrrhizic acid and liquiritin. The comprehensive index included the contents of glycyrrhizic acid and liquiritin and the yield of dry extract. The water amount and the extraction time were selected as the independent variables, and the comprehensive index was set as the dependent variable. Design-expert 8. 06 software was used to fit multivariate linear or quadratic multinomial models for the experimental values. Response surface methodology was used to optimize the water extraction process. The prediction was carried out through comparing the observed and predicted values. Results:The regression coefficient of binomial fitting complex model was as high as 0. 979 7. The optimum conditions of extraction process were as follows:12-fold amount of water, extracting 3 times with 90 min for each time. The deviation between the observed and predicted values was -1. 72%. Conclusion: Central composite design-response surface methodology is convenient and highly predictive in optimizing the water extraction process for glycyrrhiza, which can be applied in the further membrane separation and purification.

Objective:To explore the effect of different separation and purification technology on the physical and chemical proper-ties of water extract of ophiopogonin. Methods:The water extraction process of total ophiopogon saponins was optimized by an orthogo-nal test. The macroporous resin adsorption and membrane separation technology were adopted to purify the ophiopogonin water extract. The physical and chemical parameters, such as electrical conductivity, pH value, viscosity and turbidity, and the contents of total sap-onins, proteins, tannins and polysaccharides were determined. Results:The optimum water extraction technology of total saponins was as follows:6-fold amount of water was added, boiling 3 times with 90 min for each time. The electrical conductivity, pH value and vis-cosity of different purified liquid of total saponins had no significant differences, while the contents of total saponins and the three kinds of macromolecules showed significant differences. Conclusion: The content of macromolecules can be used as the reference index of purification process of total saponins water extract. Compared with macroporous resin separation, membrane separation technology is more suitable for the separation and purification of total saponins water extract.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of esmolol on young and middle-aged patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.Methods:Patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction from January 2008 to August 2020 were collected to obtain the basic information and clinical indicators. According to the clinical medication, the patients were divided into metoprolol group and esmolol group. The metoprolol group ( n=189) received routine esmolol, and the esmolol group ( n=104) received esmolol, intravenous injection, and then metoprolol sustained-release tablets. The clinical indexes, Gensini score, Killip grade, esmolol status and cardiac function after 7 d and 3 months of treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:Compared with the metoprolol group, the triglyceride (TG) was significantly higher, and the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST were significantly lower in the esmolol group (all P<0.05). The C-reactive protein (CRP), N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) and Gensini scores of culprit vessels in the esmolol group were lower than those in the metoprolol group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in cardiac function between the two groups within 7 d after treatment ( P>0.05). After 3 months of treatment, the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was higher and left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVDD) was lower than those in the metoprolol group ( P<0.05). The number of postperative, ventricular tachycardia, shock and death in the esmolol group were lower than those in the metoprolol group, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Intravenous infusion of esmolol in young and middle-aged patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction can significantly improve the myocardial injury, liver function and cardiac function in prognosis.

Objective:To assess the changes in profiles of microRNAs (miRNAs) in peripheral blood of neonatal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats with hypoxia-ischemia(HI) injury with self-resuscitation.Methods:Neonatal rats of 3 pregnant rats were divided into 3 groups according to their nests, in which group A was the blank control group, group B was the HI group, and group C was the alternative group.The expression profiles of miRNAs in periphe-ral blood of neonatal rats in group A and B by high-throughput sequencing was compared.Bioinformatics analysis was applied to investigate these differentially expressed miRNAs.Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed to screen out enriched signaling pathways and functions.Target genes of miRNAs and those correlated with hypoxia-ischemia brain damage were predicted using miRBaseData (miRBD) software.HE staining was performed to observe the pathological changes of rat brain tissues.Results:A total of 1 049 mature reliable miRNAs in peripheral blood of neonatal rats were identified, including 525 miRNAs in group A, and 524 in group B. There were 27 differentially expressed miRNAs between group A and B, and their types were highly correlated.A total of 38 dysregulated miRNAs were screened out in group B, involving 21 upregulated miRNAs and 17 downregulated ones.GO and KEGG analyses showed that the identified differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly enriched in the glutamatergic synapse pathway, myelin lipid metabolism, neural activity ligand-receptor interaction and the vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway, all of them were significantly correlated with HIBD and over-activated.Cortex and subcallosal white matter lesions, enlarged ventricles, disordered arrangement of gray matter neurons, and obvious apoptosis in rat brain tissues of group A and B were not observed in HE staining.Conclusions:Differential expression of miRNAs in peripheral blood of HI self-resuscitated rats suggests that miRNAs has a positive response to hypoxia and ischemia.Differentially expressed miRNAs, including miR-200, miR-471, miR-429, miR-216 and miR-871 families, in peripheral blood of neonatal rat with HI showed their active response after HIBD.They are related to the molecular mechanisms of the nervous system damage, and are expected to become novel diagnostic markers for HIBD or HI.Differentially expressed miRNAs are conductive to the development of therapeutic targets of HI.

OBJECTIVETo study the molecular mechanism of tetramethylpyrazine to induce human promyelocytic HL-60 leukemia cells differentiation.

METHODThe cell proliferation was determined by MTT. The differentiation of the cells was detected by NBT reduction test. Cellular morphology was observed by Wright's staining. Cell cycle distribution and the distribution of CD11b, CD14 were detected by flow cytometry. Then RT-PCR and Western blot assay were employed to detect the expressions of c-myc, p27, CDK2 and cyclinE1 in HL-60 cells after exposure to TMP.

RESULTTMP inhibited the proliferation in a dose and time dependent manner. TMP at the concentration of 200 mg x L(-1) to 300 mg x L(-1) induced unterminal differentiation of HL-60 cell and synergistically blocked the cell cycle progression of HL-60 cells in G0/G1 phase. The expression of c-myc was down-regulated as well as the protein expression of cyclin E and CDK2, while the mRNA and protein expression of P27 were remarkably up-regulated.

CONCLUSIONSmall doses of TMP induces differentiation of HL-60 cells throughout the cell cyde, as detected by a slower rate of accumulation in G0/G1, possibly by regulating the expression and activity of G1/S phase-related molecules.

2019-novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) is a highly pathogenic human CoV that first emerged in Wuhan in 2019.2019-nCoV has a zoonotic origin and poses a major threat to public health.However, little is known about the viral factors contributing to the high virulence of 2019-nCoV.Many animal viruses, including CoVs, encode proteins that interfere with host gene expression, including those involved in antiviral immune responses, and these viral proteins are often major virulence factors.Human coronaviruses (HCoVs) are known respiratory pathogens associated with a range of respiratory infection.In the past 17 years, the onset of 2019-nCoV, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) have thrust HCoVs into spotlight of the research community due to their high pathogenicity in humans.The recent study of HCoVs-host interactions has contributed extensively to our understanding of infection pathogenesis of 2019-nCoV.This review discuss various host physiopathologic mechanism, such as apoptosis, innate immunity, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway that may be modulated by HCoVs and provides evidence for the intensive investigate of 2019-nCoV infection.
