Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1993;0(03):-
Objective To investigate the effects of extractum trametes robiniphila murr combinated with hydroxyurea on proliferation and apoptosis of K562 cells and whether the 2 drugs have synergistic effects,and to detect the antiproliferation and apoptosis ratio of cells in diffe-rent groups were detected.Methods K562 cells were cultured in vitro,and logarithmic phase cells were used for study.MTT-inhibitory test and cell morphological analysis were employed to examine the effects of extractum trametes robiniphila murr alone or in combination with hydroxyurea on proliferation of K562 cells.The effects of extractum trametes robiniphila murr alone or in combinated with hydroxyurea on apoptosis of K562 cells were examined by flow cytometry.The expressions of bcr-abl,bax and bcl-xl mRNA levels were detected by way of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Extractum trametes robiniphila murr could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of K562 cells,and extractum trametes robiniphila murr combinated with hydroxyurea had a synergistic effects on cell prolife-ration and apoptosis.The RT-PCR displayed that either extractum trametes robiniphila murr alone or in combinated with hydroxyurea could down-regulate the expression of bcl-xl mRNA and up-regulate the expression of bax mRNA and the effect of the 2 drugs had a synergistic effect on bcl-xl and bax mRNA expressions.Extractum trametes robiniphila murr alone could also down-regulate the expression of bcr-abl mRNA,but hydroxyurea alone did not show any effect on the expression of bcr-abl mRNA and the 2 drugs had no synergistic effect.Conclusions The effect of extractum trametes robiniphila murr combinated with hydroxyurea on the proliferation and apoptosis of K562 cells has a synergistic effect.The mechanism of antiproliferation and inducing apoptosis of extractum trametes robiniphila murr is probably related to down-regulating the expression of bcl-xl and bcr-abl mRNA and up-regulating the expression of bax mRNA.The synergistic effect of antiproliferation and inducing apoptosis of extractum trametes robiniphila murr combinated with hydroxyurea on K562 cells is probably related to down-regulating the expression of bcl-xl mRNA and up-regulating the expression of bax mRNA.

Objective To investigate the effects of Mailuoning on oxidative stress and ischemic brain injury. Methods A total of 126 healthy male Kunming mice were divided into sham operation (n = 18), normal saline control (n = 54) and Mailuoning (n = 54) groups. A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was induced Two hours after MCAO,Mailuoning injection and equivalent saline were injected via the tail vein in the Mailuoning and normal saline control groups, respectively, and then they were injected every other 24 h.Neurological score was performed, and brain water content, infarct volume, membrane potential,as well as protein oxidative stress metabolites such as 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT), lipid oxidative stress metabolite 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) and nucleic acid oxidative stress metabolite 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were detected at 12, 24 and 72 h after MCAO. Results Mailuoning injection could significantly improve the neurological function of cerebral ischemia in mice, decrease brain edema, and reduce infarct volume at different time points after cerebral ischemia Of those, it was most significant at 72 h. Mailuoning injection could reverse the decreased mitochondrial membrane potential in cerebral cortex and internal capsule, and significantly downregulate the increased 3-NT, HNE and 8-OHdG in cerebral cortex, internal capsule and serum after ischemia, of those, the effect of reducing HNE was most significant.Conclusions Mailuoning injection may effectively protect against ischemic brain injury in mice,and its mechanism is associated with inhibiting oxidative stress, particularly anti-lipid oxidation.

Objective To study the effects of Tan Ⅱ A on the expression of c-Met and HIF-lα in gastric cancer SGC7901 cells under hypoxia and the correlation between c-Met and HIF-lα expression. Methods The model of hypoxia was established by CoCl2. There were three groups; normal control group, hypoxia control group, and hypoxia combined with different concentrations of Tan ⅡA group. After Tan ⅡA was added to the media with 0.5, 2.0 and 10.0 mg/L respectively for 48 h under hypoxia, the expression of HIF-1α and c-Met protein was detected by immunocytochemical staining. Results Immunocytochemical staining revealed that the expression of HIF-1α and c-Met protein was inhibited by Tan ⅡA in a dose-dependent manner under hypoxia. High positive correlation was found between the expression of HIF-1α and c-Met (n = 4, r = 0. 996, P <0.01). Conclusion Tan ⅡA might inhibit the expression of c-Met protein via down-regulation of HIFlα protein expression under hypoxia, suggesting that Tan ⅡA might play an important role in fighting against hypoxia-stimulated invasion and metastasis of tumor.

Objective To compare the clinical features of drug induced hepatitis caused by traditional Chinese medicines (TCM) and western medicines. Methods A total of 181 patients hospitalized with drug in-duced hepatitis between January and December 2015 were enrolled. Among the patients ,75 cases were in TCM group,66 cases in western medicine group and 40 cases in combined group(accepted both TCM and western medi-cine treatment). Liver biopsies were performed and Roussed Uclaf Causality Assessment Method (RUCAM) scores showed that all patients were with scores higher than 3. The data including gender,age,clinical manifesta-tions,physical signs,laboratory tests and image characteristics were analyzed individually. Results There was no significant difference in age,the pattern of liver injury,and the course of liver damage among the three groups (P>0.05). Anorexia was common symptom in all the three groups without any significant difference(P>0.05). Jaundice was most frequently observed in TCM group while fever was most commonly found in western medicine group,which both had significant difference(P< 0.05). The results of routine coagulation tests and serum albu-min values were normal in 3 group with increasing level of aminotransferase observed ,and there was no significant differences among 3 groups(P>0.05). Compared with western medicine group ,the patients in TCM group had a higher level of platelet counts ,serum levels of total bilirubin ,total bile acids(TBA)and serum iron(P<0.05), and less proportion of eosinophils and lower level alkaline phosphatase(P< 0.05). Conclusions The age,the pattern of liver injury,the course of liver damage and aminotransferase levels in patients with drug induced hepati-tis caused by TCM and western medicines were similar;however,western medicines were more likely to cause al-lergic responses and hyperbilirubinemia occurred more frequently in patients with drug induced hepatitis caused by TCM.
