Brain tissues of rats in 3 groups were observed with HE staining under light microscope.Results In hypoxic-ischemic group,there was found mild brain damage after hypoxic-ischomic 3 hours,the brain lesion was most severe at 1 day,glial cell proliferation was found at 3 days,much neur were losed at 14,21 days,and colloid scar was formed in cortex,striatum and hippocampi.Conclusion The method that left common carotid ontery of neonatal rats were ligated and then put in 8% oxygen for 2.5 hours is simple, rapid and dependable, which can be applied widely.

Objective To investigate the characters of culture of neural stem cells(NSCs) from neonatal rats in different states in vitro.Methods Forty-two neonatal rats at age 7 days were divided randomly into 3 groups as control group,hypoxic group and hypoxic-ischemic group,each having 14 rats.Forteen rats of every group divided randomly into 7 small groups,each including 3 h,6 h,1 d,3 d,(7 d),14 d and 21 d,according to the time to put to death,each having 2 rats.After builting rat models of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy,NSCs from hippocampus in 3 groups were isolated,then cultured,passed,differentiated and differentiated with single cell clone and immunocytochemistry tecnique.Results NSCs in hippocampus from 3 groups were cultured in form of typical neuraospheres in suspension.The cells could be cloned,passed continuously and induced.There were differences among 3 groups when primary NSCs were cultured at 3 h and 6 h time points.But at 1 d,3 d,7 d,14 d and 21 d time points,clony neuraospheres from primary NSCs in hypoxic group were the most among 3 groups while clony neuraospheres from primary NSCs in hypoxic-ischemic group were the lest.Conclusions NSCs from hippocampus of neonatal rats in different states remain to be cultured,meanwhile,NSCs are decreased with increase of age,elongation of illness course and progress of state of an illness.

Objective To study the effects of matrine on accumulation of ? globin mRNA and induction of erythroid differentiation in K562 cells in vitro.Methods K562 cells were cultured for 6 days with different concentration of matrine,viable cell counts were determined by trypan-blue dye exdusion test. Erythroid differentiation was evaluated by percentage of benzidine-positive cells at different days after culture. Morphological changes were observed under microscope after Wright-Gimesa staining; ? globin mRNA was quantitative by real time quantitative reverse transcript polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).Results Different concentrations of matrine inhibited proliferation of K562 cells in dose-dependent manner; otherwise, K562 cells were successfully induced by erythroid differentiation with matrine. After treatment with matrine, percentage of benzidine-positive cells significantly increased from 0.7% to 15.7% and characteristic changes of erythroid differentiation in the cell morphology were observed, G? globin mRNA had a preferential increase (2.7 fold)in K562 cells. Conclusions Matrine accumulation G? globin mRNA and induced erythroid differentiation of K562 cells. The results provides an experimental evidence for the pharmacological therapy of hematological diseases associated with a failure in the expression of normal ? globin genes.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of simvastatin on cobalt choride ( CoCl2 ) -induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury on alveolar type Ⅱ cells and the underlying mechanisms.Methods CoCl2 was used to establish the hypoxia and reoxygenation injury model on AT Ⅱ cells.Blank,control and variant doses simvastatin-treated groups ( 5,10,20,30,50,100 μ mol/L) were designed in the present study.The proliferation of AT Ⅱ cells was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8 ) assay.The percentage of apoptotic cells was assessed by flow cytometry AV/PI double-staining.The protein levels of surfactant protein-C (SP-C) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in AT Ⅱ cells was determined by Western blot.Results As compared with the control group,pretreatment with low dose (5 - 20 μmol/L),but not high dose simvastatin (50 - 100 μmol/L) markedly reduced A549 cells apoptosis,and increased their proliferation and the protein levels of SPC and PCNAin vitro.The protective effect could be reversed in vitro by L-mevalonate,a simvastatin competitive inhibitor,which indicated that the inhibition of mevalorate pathway was involved in the simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.Condusion Low doses simvastatin reversed CoCl2-induced hypoxia and reoxygenation injury of AT Ⅱ cells.The inhibition of mevalonate pathway contributed to simvastatin induced AT Ⅱ cells function restoration.

To establish a method for the determination of astilbin, peoniflorin, rasmarinci acid, isofraxidin and liquiritin contained in Shaolin Xiaoyin tablets, in order to lay a foundation for designing late-stage dosage forms and clinical medication schemes. In this paper, efforts were made to establish a method for the determination of the blood concentration of the five components and study the in vivo pharmacokinetics in rats. The blood concentration was determined by HPLC. Phenomenex C18 column (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm) was adopted and eluted with methanol-acetonitrile-0.05% formic acid, the flow rate was 0.8 mL x min(-1), and the wavelength was 275 nm. The samples were processed by the solid phase extraction method. After oral administration of Shaoling Xiaoyin tablets, the rat bloods were collected at different time points to determine the blood concentrations. The experimental results showed that the baseline separation could be adopted for the five components, and astilbin, peoniflorin, rasmarinci acid, isofraxidin and liquiritin showed good linear relations within ranges of 2.48-248, 0.213 6-21.36, 0.531-53.1, 0.704-70.4, 0.253-25.3 mg x L(-1). All the five components could be absorbed in blood and excreted quickly. The method established in this paper is rapid and accurate, and could be used for in vivo analysis on preparations containing similar components. The main components in Shaoling Xiaoyin tablets could be absorbed and excreted quickly, and thus suitable to be made into sustained release tablets. Common preparations are required to be taken for 4-6 times a day.
