ObjectiveTo observe the short-term and long-term efficacies of acupuncture at phenomaxillary ganglia in treating allergic rhinitis.MethodThe recruited subjects were intervened by acupuncture at phenomaxillary ganglia, once a week and 6 times asa treatment course. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was adopted to evaluate the general condition and nasal symptoms, and the Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) was used to estimate the quality of life (QOL). The evaluations were performed before and after intervention, as well as 2 years after the intervention.ResultThe subjects all had significant improvements in the clinical symptoms after 6 sessions, and the VAS scores of the general conditional nasal symptoms and RQLQ score were significantly decreased (P<0.01); in the follow-up study conducted 2 years later, except for the scores of the non-nasal/eye symptoms, all symptoms scores were significantly lower compared to that before intervention (P<0.05,P<0.01), and the results were insignificantly different from that after intervention (P>0.05).ConclusionAcupuncture at phenomaxillary ganglia is effective in treating allergic rhinitis, and the efficacy lasts stably within 2 years.

Objective Develop a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) methodfor detecting isoniazid in vitreous humor and spinal fluid.Method Vanillin, as a derivative reagent, was added to the vitreous humor and spinal fluid samples. Isoniazid and vanillin reacted to form isonicotinoyl hydrazone which was separated and detected. The pretreatment method of sample, the linear range, the precision, the recovery of isoniazid were all established by using rabbit's vitreous humor and spinal fluid spiked with standard isoniazid. The HPLC method has then been applied to investigate the concentration of isoniazid in intoxicated rabbits'vitreous numor and spinal fluid respectively.Results As established in the method, the linear range was 0.2?g/ml～12.0?g/ml (for vitreous humor ?=0.9990, for spinal fluid ?=0.9988). The detective limit was 0.2?g/ml. The intra and inter-day precision of assay for isoniazid were less than 4.9%( n =5) in vitreous numor and spinal fluid. The average recoveries of isoniazid were more than 97.1%. The concentration of isoniazid was 74.60?7.40?g/ml in vitreous humor, 88.95?10.12?g /ml in spinal fluid.Conclusion The HPLC method is suitable for analyzing isoniazid in the vitreous numor and spinal fluid.

Objective:To investigate the effect of long-term alcohol intake on sensory information synaptic transmission of mossy fiber-granular cells in the cerebellar cortex of mice.Methods:Twenty healthy male ICR mice aged 6 to 8 weeks were divided into normal saline group(control group) and alcohol intake group(alcohol group) according to random number table, with 10 mice in each group. The mice in alcohol group were injected intraperitoneally with 20% alcohol and the mice in control group were injected with the same amount of saline for 28 days.After the injection, the scalp, muscle tissue and skull were removed in turn, and the dura mater was removed to fully expose the crus II area of cerebellum. The mice were stimulated by air blowing at 30 mm of the ipsilateral tentacle pad with a gas jet device.When the the maximal response site was determined, the NMDA receptor antagonist (D-APV), metabolic glutamate receptor 1 antagonist (JNJ16259685) and N-methyl-D-aspartic acid (NMDA) were perfused on the brain surface of mice. Each drug was perfused for 20 minutes and ACSF was used between the two drugs until the waveform was recovered. Patch clamp amplifier was used to record the changes of potential waveform in mouse cerebellar granule layer. The data were analyzed by the softwares of Clampfit 10.3 and SPSS 22.0.Results:After exposure to wind stimulation, the latency of field potential response in granular layer of mice in alcohol group (11.8±0.7)ms was significantly longer than that in the control group (10.1±0.2)ms ( t=-8.041, P<0.05), and the amplitude of N1 (1.2±0.1) MV was significantly lower than that in the control group (0.6±0.1) MV ( t=-12.728, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the rise time of P1 waveform((4.4±0.2)ms, (3.2±0.2)ms), duration ((12.1±0.5)ms, (10.3±0.2)ms), extinction time((7.8±0.2)ms, (6.9± 0.2)ms), volume under waveform ((7.3±0.2)ms, (4.3±0.2)ms) were significantly increased in the alcohol group ( t=16.100, - 11.840, -11.673, -35.576, all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the amplitude, half width, rise time and decay time of Roff wave between the two groups ( t=-1.909, -0.910, -0.789, 1.462, all P>0.05). When JNJ16259685 was perfused on the brain surface of mice in alcohol group, the amplitude of field potential evoked by five blowing stimuli had no significant difference compared with that before administration (all P>0.05). When D-APV was perfused into the brain surface of mice in the alcohol group, the amplitude of P1 ((42.3±1.5) Mv)was significantly lower than that before administration ((101.1±0.9)mV) and after elution ((100.1±2.2) mV) ( t=106.762, - 69.605, both P<0.05), and the area under waveform of P1 ((42.6±1.3)%) was also significantly lower than that before administration ((100.6±1.6)%) and after elution ((97.6±2.2)%) ( t=88.862, -67.791, both P<0.05).The ratio of N2 / N1 (0.3±0.1) was significantly lower than that before administration (0.4±0.1) and after elution (0.3±0.1) ( t=2.242, 2.121, both P<0.05). When NMDA was perfused on the brain surface of mice in the control group, compared with before administration and after elution, the amplitude of P1 ((110.7±3.2) mV, (100.1±0.9) mV, (102.0±1.7) mV, t=-10.173, 7.669, both P<0.05), the area under the waveform of P1 ((127.9±3.5)%, (100.0±3.1)%, (115.0±5.3)%, t=-18.698, 6.447, both P<0.05), the ratio of N2 / N1 ((0.5±0.1), (0.3±0.1), (0.3±0.1), t=-5.669, 5.669, both P<0.05) were all significantly increased. When D-APV was perfused on the brain surface of mice in control group, the field potential evoked by blowing stimuli had no significant difference compared with that before administration and after elution (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Long-term alcohol intake significantly suppresses the synaptic transmission of excitatory glutamate in MF-GC, and enhances the inhibitory response mediated by GABAA receptor in cerebellar cortex. The inhibitory component is enhanced by NMDA receptor, but not by type 1 metabolic glutamate receptor.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of simple peritoneal lavage combined with venous-venous hemofiltration therapy for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Methods Needles were inserted into abdominal cavity and tee was connected, then normal saline was administrated and discharged, followed by lidocaine, dexamethasone and antibiotics once daily until bloody peritoneal drainage became clear. At the same time venous-venous hemofiltration was used. Results 61 SAP patients were randomly divided into peritoneal lavage + hemofiltration group (treatment group, n =31) and control group (n = 31). The time to abdominal pain relief, abdominal distention relief, nausea and vomiting disappearance, peritoneal irritation disappearance was (1.5 ±0.3)d,(2.7 ±0.3)d, (1.9 ±0.3)d, (1.5 ±0.2)d, and the time to cure was (11.0 ±2.0)d in the treatment group, which was significantly shorter than that in the control group [(3.9 ± 0. 3) d, (4.5 ±0.6)d, (3.7 ±0.2)d, (5.3 ±0.4)d, (18.0 ±2.5)d, P＜0.05]. At the 1st day of treatment, serum ALT,AST was significantly lower than that in the control group; at the 3rd day of treatment, the serum and urine amylase and serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 level were significantly lower, but the serum level of IL-10,HCO3-was significantly higher than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0. 01); at the 5th day of treatment, the serum Bun and Cr level were significantly lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0. 05).Conclusions Simple peritoneal lavage combined with venous-venous hemofiltration therapy can effectively eliminate the inflammatory factors, which is more rational and effective for the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To study changes of endothelin (ET),nitric oxide (NO) in plasma and treatment effect of puerarin on acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods Seventy-three patients with AP were randomly divided into 2 groups: puerarin group (38 cases, puerarin plus basic treatment) and non puerarin group (35 cases, basic treatment ). ET was measured by radioimmunoassay, NO was measured by nitrate reductase and plasma amylase and uric amylase were determined by Somogyi before and after the treatment.Twenty healthy persons were recruited as control group.

Compared with those in non puerarin group[(1182.0±520.0), (5623.0±1326.0) U/L and (5.12±0.76)d], plasma amylase and uric amylase [(802.0±170.0), (4102.0±1126.0) U/L], the time of abdominal pain relief [(2.20±0.72) d] was lower in puerarin group (P<0.05). Conclusions The plasma ET and NO might play a key role in the development of AP. Therapeutic effect of puerarin is sure in AP.

Objective To examine the expressions of glyoxalase Ⅰ (GLO-Ⅰ ) in endometrial cancer tissues and cell lines and to investigate the roles of GLO-Ⅰ on proliferation and apoptosis in endometrial cancer cells. Methods Immunohistochemistry, western blot and RT-PCR were used to investigate the expressions of GLO-Ⅰ protein and mRNA in endometrial cancer tissues and Ishikawa cell lines ;enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ in normal endometrium, endometrial cancer and paraneoplastic tissue samples was detected with spectrophotometer; proliferation and apoptosis of Ishikawa cell before and after RNA interference (RNAi) procedure were detected by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and flow cytometry, respectively. Results (1)There were significant differences of GLO-Ⅰ expression between normal endometrium (0/19) and endometrial cancer tissues ( 76%, 22/29 ); these were also significant differences of enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ among normal endometrium, paraneoplastic and endometrial cancer tissues( 1.1,0.8 vs 92.3 IU/mg; P <0.01 ). Enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ in fresh normal endometrium and paraneoplastic tissues was weak, while that of fresh endometrial cancer tissues was as high as 92. 3 IU/mg in average. (2)The expression of GLO-Ⅰ mRNA in Ishikawa cell transfected with GLO-Ⅰ siRNA was significantly lower than that in negative group (0.25 ± 0.06 vs 0.93 ± 0.10, P < 0.0l ), and the similar results that in the expression of GLO-Ⅰ protein (0.38 ±0.06 vs 0.94 ±0.13, P <0.01 ). (3) Proliferation in Ishikawa cell was significantly inhibited after silencing RNA expression of GLO-Ⅰ ( P = 0.028 ). The apoptosis rate of cells transfected with GLO- Ⅰ siRNA was significantly higher than that of negative control group and blank control group [ ( 6.7 ± 0.8 ) % vs ( 1.2 ± 0.4) %, ( 1.4 ± 0.4 ) %; P < 0.01 ]. Conclusion The expression and enzyme activity of GLO- Ⅰ is significantly increased in endometrial cancer, which could promote abnormal proliferation and inhibit apoptosis in endometrial cancer cells.
