An HPLC-UV method was developed for the determination of total naringenin and total hesperetin in rat plasma after oral administration of Citrus aurantium Immaturus extracts and Zhizi Dahuang decoction. Plasma samples were pretreated with liquid-liquid extraction procedure and acid hydrolysis method was used for converting conjugated naringenin and hesperetin to their respective free forms. Plasma samples were separated on a C18 column (4.6 mm x 150 mm, 5 microm), using 0.1% phosphoric acid and methanol as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1) with gradient elution. DAS 2.0 software was applied to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters while the SPSS 16.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Significant differences were observed, the C(max) AUC(0-t) of total naringenin in ZS group was 73.5% and 65.9% higher than those in ZZDHD group, respectively; the C(max), AUC(0-t) of total hesperetin in ZS group was 63.5% and 119.1% higher than those in ZZDHD group, respectively. There is a obvious decrease in C(max) and AUC(0-t) of total naringenin and total hesperetin after compatibility and their pharmacokinetic characteristics changed greatly due to the combination of other herbs. The established method was rapid, sensitive, selective and accurate, and it could be applied in the determination of total naringenin and total hesperetin in rat plasma.

Objective To investigate the biological properties of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) which were preconditioned with phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor (Vardenfil). Methods hAMSCs were in vitro isolated and cultured, hAMSCs were pre-treated with vardenfil in final concentration of 10 μmol/L. The morphology of Vard-hAMSCs was observed, and the immunological characteristics, proliferative capacity, and ability of anti-oxidative damage of hAMSCs and Vard-hAMSCs were analyzed by flow cytometry. Double labeling immunofluorescent staining was used to count the differences of differential potential between neural cells of hAMSCs and Vard-hAMSCs. Results (1)Flow cytometry revealed that both hAMSCs and Vard-hAMSCs positively expressed CD90、CD105 and CD73, and negatively expressed CD34、CD45、CD11b and HLA-DR. The SPF and PI in Vard-hAMSCs group were (0.57 ± 0.40)% and (2.20 ± 1.60)% respectively, there was no statistical significance compared with hAMSCs group; (2)After 4 hours treated by H2O2, the apoptosis rate in Vard-hAMSCs group were (7.67 ± 0.82)%,which were markedly lower than that in the hAMSCs group and specific blocker group; (3)Under the same induction condition, positive rates of MAP-2 and GFAP in Vard-hAMSCs group were (49.8 ± 6.42)%and (55.2 ± 6.10)% respectively detected by double labeling immunofluorescent staining, which were significantly higher than the control group. Conclusion The strategy that hAMSCs are treated with vandenfil can enrich the ability of anti-oxidative damage and the differential potential for neural cells in a certain time, and the morphology, immunological characteristics, proliferative capacity of Vard-hAMSCs have no significant change. It suggests that pre-treatment with vandenfil may provide a optimized experimental strategey for hAMSCs which were used to treat nervous system disease.

Objective To explore the extent of lung injury induced by hyperoxia,and the activity of ubiquitin-proteasome pathway(UPP) in pathophysiological progress of lung tissue in early stages.Methods Adopted completely random design,20 SD rats were divided into hyperoxia group and air control group.For the air control group,the oxygen concentration exiting the cages was analyzed with oxygen monitor and oxygen concentration remained at 210 mL/L for 72 hours;while in the hyperoxia group,the condition changed into high-density oxygen(950 mL/L) for 72 hours to estimate the hyperoxia lung injury in rats model.The contents linked morphology as pathological classification in gross finding,pathological score of lung injury and the index of pneumonedema-the ratio of moist to dry weight of lungs were mea-sured.The expressions of ubiquitin protein and the activity of proteasome 20 S and the active statement of ubiquitin-proteasome pathway were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot methods.Results 1.The hyperoxia lung injury rat model was successfully duplicated.2.In hyperoxia group,pulmonary edema with increased ratio of moist to dry weight of lungs could be found(P=0).3.Macroscopic observation: bright red and full-stacked lung tissue,foliated or local hemorrhage on the surface,but little pleural effusion was observed in hyperoxia group.There was statistical significance of pathological classification in gross finding between hyperoxia group and air control group(P=0.005).Light microscope observation:swelled alveolar epithelium,widened alveoli wall,capillary engorgement and telangiectasis,obvious edema in interstitial tissue of pulmonary aveolus and alveolar space,increased inflammatory cells were observed in hyperoxia group.The findings of pathological score of lung injury indicated more serious injure than control group(P=0).4.The increased expression of ubiquitin protein in lung tissue was discoved by using immunohistochemistry and Western blot findings after hyperoxia exposure 72 hours.(P=0).5.The acti-vity of proteasomes 20 S in hyperoxia group was higher than that in control group(P=0).Conclusions The mainly pathological changes of lung are generated through hyperoxic exposure for 72 hours,including alveolar epithelial cell and vascular endothelial cell injury diffusely,inflammatory cell infiltration and pulmonary edema.Active the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway is connected with the pathophysiological process of lung injury in the initial stages of hyperoxia-exposure.

Objective To analyze characteristics of severe liver trauma and efficacy of different surgical procedures. Methods Clinical data of 109 patients with severe liver trauma treated in the recent 10 years were retrospectively analyzed. Debriding suture was performed in 32 patients, gauze tamponade in 5, debridement hepatectomy in 59 and anatomical hepatectomy in 13 patients. Results In all the 109 patients, 92 were cured and 17 died. The dead patients included 3 with grade Ⅲ trauma,9 with grade Ⅳ trauma, and 5 with grade V trauma. Among the dead patients, there were 3 patients with simple liver injury (17.6%) and 14 with associated injury (82.4%). Conclusion Right hepatic serious damage is the main type of severe liver trauma and is always complicated with associated injury and needs emergency treatment. Application of the most appropriate surgical approach according to the traumatic condition is important to promote the successful rate of treatment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of surgical repair for non-circumferential defect of bile duct in Mirizzi syndrome.Method The clinical data of 32 patients with Mirizzi syndrome with non-circumferential defect of bile duct were repaired using the patient's own tissues such as gallbladder pedicle flap,umbilical venous flap and omental flap.Results All the patients were operated success fully.There was no operative mortality.The defects in the bile duct were repaired using gallbladder pedicle flap in 25 patients,umbilical venous flap in 5 patients and omental flap in 2 patients.There were 2 patients who developed postoperative complications.There was one postoperative bile leakage in a patient who was repaired using an umbilical venous flap.The other complication was residual bile duct stones.The patient with postoperative bile leakage was drained through a drainage tube which was removed after 7 days.The residual bile duct stones were removed by endoscopy through a T-tube sinus after 9 months.All patients were confirmed by T-tube cholangiography after 9 to 12 months to have no stones,bile duct stenosis or any other abnormalities.The T-tube was then removed.All patients were followed -up for 1 to 5 years.All patients had no cholangitis,abdominal pain,jaundice or fever.Conclusions Using the patients' own tissues such as gallbladder pedicle flap,umbilical venous flap and omental flap to surgical repair the defect in the bile duct of patients with Mirizzi syndrome was effective.This surgical treatment is a good choice.

Objective To determine the effects of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) on risk stratification and prognosis of patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST).Methods Literatures in the Cochrane libraries of clinical comparative trials,PubMed,EMBASE,Cancer Lit and Chinese BioMedical Literature from 1966 to 2012 were retrieved using the Cochrane systematic evaluation method.The original data were extracted and crosschecked by 2 reviewers.The indicator for assessment including positive rates of COX-2 in GIST patients with different tumor diameters (＜5 cm versus ≥5 cm),mitosis of cancer cells (＜5/50 HPF versus ≥5/50 HPF) and National Institute of Health (NIH) risk stratifications (very low + low versus intermediate + high).The relationship between COX-2 expression and recurrence and metastasis of GIST was evaluated.All the data were analyzed using the RevMan 5.1 software with Meta analysis.The heterogeneity between studies was analyzed using the I2.The binary data were presented by odds ration (OR) and 95％ confidence interval (95 ％ CI).Results Seven articles with a total of 415 patients were included in the analysis.The COX-2 expression did not correlate with the tumor diameters,NIH risk stratifications and tumor metastasis and recurrence (OR =0.60,0.72,2.46,P ＞ 0.05),but with the mitosis of cancer cells (OR =0.46,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion COX-2 expression is partly correlated with risk stratification of GIST,but has no effect on the prognosis.
