Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2019;50(3):632-638
Objective: To investigate the effects of five kinds of flavonoids (calycosin, formononetin, ononin, isoliquiritigenin, and medicarpin) from Hedysari Radix on promoting osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) and rat calvarial osteoblasts (ROBs). Methods: rBMSCs were isolated according to plastic adherence. ROBs were isolated by enzyme digestion method. The proliferation of rBMSCs and ROBs were detected by MTT assay. ALP activity and calcium content of rBMSCs and ROBs cells were detected by alkaline phosphatase kit and calcium kit. Mineralized nodule formation was detected by alizarin red staining. Results: The five components could promote proliferation, increase ALP activity, increase calcium content, and increase the area and number of calcified nodules of rBMSCs and ROBs (P < 0.05). Among them, calycosin had the best effect on promoting the osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs, and medicarpin promoted the osteogenic differentiation of ROBs with the best effect, followed by calycosin. Conclusion: Five flavonoids promoted the improvement of osteogenic function, while calycosin has better osteogenic activity on rBMSCs and ROBs and can be used as an excellent osteoinductive factor.

Objective:To explore whether tumor-inducing agent 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) affect CD133 expression in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) 5-8F cells. Methods:NPC cell line 5-8F was treated with single TPA, single BrdU, or TPA plus BrdU, respectively. CD133 mRNA and protein expression levels were detected by real-time fluorogentic quantitative PCR and Western blotting, respectively. Flow cytometry was used to separate CD133-positive cells and determine their levels. Boyden chamber test was used to measure the invasion capability of the cells. Results:Compared with untreated group, CD133 mRNA levels were increased in single BrdU group and BrdU plus TPA group (P=0.037 and 0.003, respectively), and decreased in single TPA group. Western blotting indicated that the expressions of CD133 protein was increased in all the three treated groups, and FCM showed that the quantity of CD133-positive cells also increased. The invasion capability was enhanced, especially in BrdU plus TPA group. Conclusion:Both TPA and BrdU increased CD133 expression in NPC.The effects of TPA and BrdU are synergestic.
10.Study of rat beta-defensin-2 gene and protein expression in ventilator-associated pneumonia
Chinese Critical Care Medicine 2005;17(6):353-356
OBJECTIVE: To study the changes in the expression of rat beta-defensin-2 (RBD-2) gene in the lung tissue with P. aeruginosa (PA) pneumonia following tracheal mechanical ventilation (MV), and to evaluate the pathogenesis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). METHODS: A total of 58 normal healthy Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing between 280 and 320 g, were randomly divided into the control group and the conventional MV group (CMV). A tracheal catheter was inserted via mouth in every rat under urethane anesthesia. PA (1 MIC, 0.2 ml) was instilled into the tracheal in the control group. Rats of CMV group received MV (V(T)=12 ml/kg) through tracheal tube for 24 hours, and then were challenged intra-tracheally with PA (1 MIC, 0.2 ml). Fluid loss was replenished through intravenous infusion. The arterial catheter was used for hemodynamics, parameters were monitored, and arterial blood gases were determined. Samples of lung were harvested at 0 hours, 15 hours, 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days and 5 days, respectively, after bacterial challenge. The mRNA of RBD-2 was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and the protein levels were analyzed by Western blotting. RESULTS: Expression of RBD-2 mRNA and protein was lower in CMV group compared with the control 3 hours before instillation of bacteria. RBD-2 mRNA increased 3 hours after bacteria instillation, reaching the peak at 12-24 hours. No significant difference in RBD-2 expression between the control group and the CMV group within 3 hours, but it was significantly higher at 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 1 day, 3 days and 5 days in the control group than in the CMV group. The number of inflammatory cells infiltrating the bronchial submucous layer was significantly higher in the control group than in the CMV group (P<0.05). There was milder interstitial pulmonary edema and less red blood cells in the alveoli in the control group than in the CMV group. The mortality rate of the CMV group was 60%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (20%, P<0.05). The positive rates of blood culture and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) bacterial culture were also higher in the CMV group (P<0.05). The survival rate in CMV group (40%) was lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The lowering of BD-2 gene and protein expression in the CMV group 3 hours after bacteria challenge might be one of the contributory factors in causing VAP.
