3.Effect of catgut implantation at acupoint on the content of tumor necrosis factor alpha of patients with ankylosing spondylitis.
Chinese Journal of Integrated Traditional and Western Medicine 2014;34(3):284-286
OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of catgut implantation at acupoint on the content of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), and to explore its mechanism for treatment of ankylosing spondylitis (AS).
METHODSSeventy-four AS patients were randomly assigned to the observation group and the control group by digit random table, 37 in each group. Patients in the control group took Sulfasalazine Enteric-coated Tablet (SECT), 0.5 g each time, three times daily for 3 months. Those in the observation group additionally received catgut implantation at acupoint for 3 months. Changes of visual analogue scale (VAS), Schober test, pillow wall distance, thoracic activity, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C reactive protein (CRP), and TNF-alpha were compared after 3 months of treatment.
RESULTSThere was obvious change in VAS, Schober test, pillow wall distance, thoracic activity, ESR, CRP, and TNF-alpha after treatment in the both groups, showing statistical difference when compared with before treatment (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The aforesaid indices were obviously improved after treatment in the observation group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONCatgut implantation at acupoint, as an assistant therapy, could significantly improve clinical symptoms and signs, decrease the level of TNF-alpha, and its effect was superior to that of oral SECT administration alone.

Objective To measure the tapping frequency of hemiplegic unaffected forefinger and normal control's forefinger. Methods The tapping frequency of 27 left hemiplegic patients and 32 healthy controls were measured by finger oscillating frequency tester. Results The oscillation frequency of hemiplegic patients was lower than that of the healthy controls (P<0.001). Conclusion Hand function of hemiplegic patients weakened.

Objective To study the use of immunosuppressives for the patients with virus C hepatitis(HCV)after renal transplantation.Methods Twenty-five cases of HCV-RNA(+)and 30 cases of HCV-RNA(-)as control group were analyzed.All patients were divided into the Aza group(n=12),MMF group(n=8)and MP(MMF+Pred)group(n=5).Results Eight casGS revealed abnormal liver function in the Aza group and 2 in MMF group.After stopping the use of CsA and Aza,the liver function all revealed good outcome in the MP group.During one week 30 cases of HCV-RNA(-)recovered due to the readjustment of the dosage of immunosupprexsives(CsA,Aza)in the control group.Conclnsions The therapy of MMF+CsA+Pred is necessary for the patients with HCV-RNA(+)and the function of the renal and liver can be stabilized by MMF.

Objective To research the removal of the low concentration of formaldehyde in the indoor air by using copper sulfate.Methods The low concentration of formaldehyde(10.0 mg/L)in the indoor air was determined by the way of MBTH spectrophotometry.The influence of pH,chelon and concentration on the removal of different concentration formaldehyde was investigated by the way of chemisorption.Results When pH was 11.99,12.86,13.08 and 13.42,using copper sulfate,the removal rate of 10.0 mg/L formaldehyde was 43.82%,62.75%,69.21% and 73.40% respectively.When the concentration of copper sulfate was at 3.0 g/L,5.0 g/L,7.0 g/L and 10.0 g/L,the removal rate was 51.43%,73.40%,66.36% and 62.18% respectively in the condition of pH=13.42.When used potassium sodium tartrate and EDTA as the ehelon,pH=13.42,concentration of copper sulfate was 5.0 g/L,the removal rate of 2.0 mg/L formaldehyde was 77.21% and 62.51% respectively,that of 10.0 mg/L formaldehyde was 86.54% and 73.40% respectively,that of 100.0mg/L formaldehyde was 96.71% and 91.32% respectively.Conclusion Using potassium sodium tartrate as the chelon,at pH=13.42,5.0 g/L copper sulfate can produce a good removal efficiency for indoor low level formaldehyde.

Objective To investigate the anti-tumor effect and mechanism of Plumbagin against human large cell lung cancer cell line NL9980.Methods Plumbagin in different concentrations were set up to administrate NL9980 cell line.MTT test was performed to detect the inhibiting effects against tumor proliferation and IC50 concentration was identified.The influence of tumor apoptosis was observed by flow cytometry and the inhibiting effect against invasive ability was detected by Boyden chamber test.IC50 group and control group were set up and tumor cells were harvested 6 h,24 h and 48 h after administration.Realtime PCR was used to detect mRNA expression changes of bcl-2,bax,VEGF and CYCD1.Results MTT test showed obvious inhibiting effects of proliferation in NL9980 cell line and IC50 was 7.5 μmol/L.Plumbagin induced the apoptosis of tumor cells and showed a significant anti-invasive effect.Mean membrane-spanning cells were 161.59±47.32 and 26.58±9.07 in control group and IC50 group correspondingly.Down-regulations of bcl-2,VEGF and CYCD1 were detected and expression of bax gene increased.The effect of Plumbagin showed obvious time dependance (P <0.05).Conclusion Plumbagin has displayed the powerful antitumor effects against NL9980 cell line and it might work via multiple pathways.Plumbagin exhibits the prospect of being an effective drug against large cell lung cancer.

The effect of recombinant human phospholipase D2(rhPLD2)in vivo was investigated on the secretion of serum glycosyl phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase D(GPI-PLD)in guinea pigs of chronic asthma.Ater treating the guinea pigs attacked by chronic asthma with rhPLD2,the GPI-PLD activity detection was canrried out by phase separation of human placental alkaline phosphatase in Triton X-114.Compared with the healthy guinea pigs(NS group),the serum GPI-PLD in the guinea pigs of chronic asthma are much higher than that of control groups,P≤0.01.Our results showed that rhPLD2 could significantly reduce the secretion of GPI-PLD when the guinea pigs were attacked by chronic asthma.
