This study is to investigate the protective effect of rosiglitazone (RSG) against learning and memory impairment of APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. AD mice model was replicated by using 6-month APP/PS1/tau transgenic mice. The learning and memory ability of mice was evaluated by Morris water maze and Western blotting assays was applied to measure the phosphorylation and O-glycosylation of Tau and neurofilaments (NFs) protein. The results demonstrated that RSG could reverse the learning and memory deficits of 3 x Tg mice significantly. It was also found that RSG could suppress the hyperphosphorylation of Tau and NFs protein levels and increase the glycosylation expression of Tau and NFs proteins in 3 x Tg mice brain. Together, RSG ameliorates cognitive impairments of 3 x Tg mice via the alleviation of the hyperphosphorylated Tau and NFs proteins burden in the brain.

AIM: To study the effect of oridonin on the phagocytosis of apoptotic U937 cells by macrophage-like cells. METHODS: DNA agarose gel electrophoresis, Giemsa staining, Hoechst 33258 staining and photomicroscopical observation were used. RESULTS: UV irradiation (2.4 J/cm~2, 4 min) induced U937 cell apoptosis. Marked DNA fragmentation in agarose gel electrophoresis was observed. Oridonin augmented phagocytosis of apoptotic U937 cells by U937 cell-derived macrophages in a time- and dose-dependent manner. However, less effect on synthetic fluoresbrite micropheres was observed. The oridonin-augmented phagocytosis was attenuated by anti-human TNF? or anti-human IL-1? antiserum. In addition, the similar effect of phagocytosis was observed in oridonin-treated human monocyte-derived macrophages at 4 day maturation. CONCLUSION: Oridonin enhances phagocytosis of apoptotic U937 cells by macrophage-like cells. The releases of TNF? and IL-1? are involved in this mechanism.

Objective:To investigate the expression of mmp-2 in mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis(MsPGN) rat renal tissue and the effects of nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM. Methods: 54 Male SD rats were divided into control group, MsPGN group and treatment group with nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM. Immunohistochemical staining, flow cytometry, western blot and RT-PCR were used to check the protein expression of mmp-2. Results: In MsPGN group, following with the disease progressing, the glomerulus grew graduatly, ECM increased, the basement membrane of glomerulus was thicker. The immunohistochemical staining showed that the chief positive granules were deposited in glomerulus and renal tubular, the expression of mmp-2 was lower than that in control group, but in treatment group the expression of mmp-2 was higher than that in MsPGN group. Conclusion: In MsPGN renal tissue, the expression of mmp-2 was reduced, its activity was weakened. Nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM could induce the expression of MMP-2 and partly recover the activity. Nourishing kidney and activating blood flow recipe of TCM could resist glomerular sclerosis and postpone the course of chronic renal failure.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bortezomib-based chemotherapy and MPT regimen in the MM patients who were newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory. Methods Twenty-seven MM patients were treated with bortezomib-based chemotherapy, median cycles:3 (range 1-5 cycles). Other 30patients received MPT chemotherapy. EBMT and WHO criteria were used to evaluate the therapeutic effects and the adverse effects, respectively. Results Bortezomib group: 21 patients (77.8 %) showed effects after the first cycle chemotherapy and 24 patients (88.8 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 15 patients(94.0 %) and 9 patients (82.0 %) were newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory, respectively. MPT group: 15patients (50.0 %) showed effects after the whole therapy. In wich, 12 patients (44.0 %) were newly diagnosed.And the other 3 were relapsed/refractory patients. The ORR in Bortezomib group was better than MPT group (P ＜0.05). The incidence of peripheral neuropathy, herpes and Ⅲ - Ⅳ grade thrombocytopenia in the bortezomib group was 10 patients (37.0 %), 7patients (26.0 %), 10 patients (37.0 %) respectively,and they were more common than MPT group, but the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳgrade anemia was 21 patients (70.0 %) and more comumom in the MPT group. The theraputic efficacy of bortezomib for renal insufficiency and normal renal function patients was similar, and no significant increase in all kinds of adverse effects. In MPT group,there were 4 patients with renal insufficiency, the serum level of creatinine in the 3 patients returned to normal after 5 cycles therapy. Conclusion Bortezomib-based chemotherapy is more effective than MPT regimen in the treatment of MM. The newly diagnosed, relapsed/ refractory and with renal insufficiency patients all can benefit from it. The adverse effects are mild and with better tolerance.

Objective To explore the protective effects of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor (DPP-4I) on AD-like neurodegenerative changes and its mechanism. Methods The human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y on the logarithmic phase was divided into six groups:control group (CON group, treated with PBS contained 1‰DMSO for 12 h), wortmannin intervention group (W group, treated with 0.03 μmol/L wortmannin for 12 h), DPP-4I intervention group (DPP-4I group, treated with 10μmol/L DPP-4I for 12 h), both DPP-4I and wortmannin intervention group (DPP-4I+W group, pre-treated with 10 μmol/L DPP-4I for 2 h, then 0.03 μmol/L wortmannin for 12 h), DPP-4I, wortmannin and Ex9-39 intervention group (DPP-4I+W+Ex9-39 group, pre-treated with 10μmol/L Ex9-39 for 2 h, then 10μmol/L DPP-4I for 2 h followed by 0.03μmol/L wortmannin for 12 h), and Ex9-39 intervention group (Ex9-39 group, treated with 10μmol/L Ex9-39 for 12 h). MTT assay was used to detect the cell vitality. Western blot assay was used to detect the level of total tau protein (tau-5) and phosphorylated tau at different sites (pSpS199/202, pT231 and pS396), the level of phosphorylated neurofilaments (NF-H, NF-M) and phosphorylation of critical enzyme in PI3K/Akt/GSK-3β signaling pathway. Results (1) The cell vitality decreased, the levels of pSpS199/202, pT231, pS396 and NF-H/M increased significantly in W group than those in CON group. However, comparing with CON group, the above mentioned parameters reversed in DPP-4I group. Comparing with W group, the cell vitality increased and phosphorylated levels of above mentioned indices were decreased in DPP-4I+W group. (2) The cell vitality showed a decline trend while the levels of phosphorylation tau at three different sites and NF-H/M were higher in Ex9-39 group than those in CON group. Comparing with DPP-4I+W group, the results of the phosphorylated levels showed the same changes in DPP-4I+W+Ex9-39 group. (3) Comparing with CON group, the expression levels of phosphorylated PI3K, Akt and GSK3β increased significantly in DPP-4I group, while those decreased in W group. Additionally, the expression levels of phosphorylated PI3K, Akt and GSK3β were significantly increased in DPP-4I+W group than those in W group. Conclusion DPP-4I can enhance the level of GLP-1 and activate PI3K/Akt/GSK-3βinsulin signaling pathway to improve the hyperphosphorylated tau and NFs induced by wortmannin, and to protect AD-like neurodegeneration.
