Objective To evaluate the killing effect and the uptake of 125I-UdR on human lymphoma Raji and Daudi cell lines. Methods The amount of 125I-UdR in the cells and cell nuclei were determined after incubation of different time in RPMI 1640 culturing medium containing different concentrations of 125I-UdR. The killing effects of 125I-UdR on Raji and Daudi cell lines were estimated through MTT assay and cell cycle was analyzed by propidium iodide (PI) staining. Results The amounts of 125I-UdR in Raji and Dandi cells and cell nuclei were much higher than that of Na125I(P < 0.05). The amounts of 125l-UdR in Raji and Daudi cells were 14414±95 and (6916± 53.69) Bq/106 cell when the concentration was 100 kBq/ml. The amounts of Na125I were 68± 3.8 and (324±32.8) Bq/106 cell. The uptake of 125I-UdR in Raji and Daudi cells and cell nuclei increased with the 125I-UdR concentration and incubated time. The cell surviving fractions of 125I-UdR groups was much lower than that of Na125I groups (P < 0.05). When the concentration was 500 kBq/ml and incubated time was 48 hours, the Raji and Dandi cell surviving fractions of125I-UdR groups were (19.78 ± 1.39)% and (43.17 ± 2.69) % ;those of Na125I groups were (79.10 ± 1.79) % and (80.36 ± 6.12) %. The surviving fractions of 125I-UdR groups reduced with the 125I-UdR concentration. Conclusions 125I-UdR can be specially ingested by Raji and Daudi cells and incorporated into DNA, then the cells will be killed. The uptake of 125I-UdR is dose and time dependent.

The efficacy of Chinese herbal formula in treating depression has been proved in many studies. In this study, six different Kaixin San formulas were compared to investigate their effects on central monoamine neurotransmitters of chronic stress rats and against depression based on their different components in plasma, in order to discuss the efficacy-comparability relationship and the possible efficacy mechanism. The classic isolation method and the chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) depression model were combined to investigate the changes in contents in hippocampus and monoamine neurotransmitters (NE, DA, 5-HT) and the components of some formulas in plasma with HPLC and UPLC-Q-TOF-MSE methods. As a result, Dingzhi Xiaowan recorded in Essential Recipes for Emergent Use Worth A Thousand significantly increased the behavioral scores, NE and 5-HT contents in hippocampus and NE, DA and 5-HT contents in cortex, with the best anti-depressant effect. Dingzhi Xiaowan recorded in Complete Records of Ancient and Modern Medical Works showed a notable increase in sucrose preference and open field score in model rats, NE content in hippocampus and NE, DA and 5-HT contents in cortex, with a certain anti anti-depressant effect. Kaixin San recorded in Ishinpo showed remarkable rise in weight of model rats. NE content in hippocampus and DA content in cortex. Puxin Decoction recorded in A Supplement to Recipes Worth A Thousand Gold showed 5-HT content in hippocampus and DA content in cortex. Kaixin San recorded in Yimenfang only showed DA content in cortex. Kaixin Wan recorded in Essential Recipes for Emergent Use Worth A Thousand did not mention the antidepressant effect. According to the results, the formulas' different anti-depressant effects may be related to the different plasma components.
