Objective:To monitor the effects of asarone injections on the expression of IL-25, IL-27 and eosinophils cationic pro-tein ( ECP) in the serum of asthma patients. Methods:Totally 100 patients with bronchial asthma were randomly divided into the ob-servation group ( 55 cases ) and the control group ( 45 cases ) . The control group was treated with the conventional symptomatic treat-ment ( oxygen inhalation, spasmolysis and anti-asthma, and anti-infection, etc) . The observation group was given asarone injections 24 mg in 250 ml 0. 9% sodium chloride infusions, once a day for 14 days on the basis of the conventional therapy. The changes in symp-toms, and pulmonary function in the patients were observed with simultaneous detection of IL-25, ECP and IL-27 levels. Results:To-tal effective rate of the observation group was 92. 7%,which was higher than that of the control group (P<0. 05). Asarone injections could decrease IL-25, ECP and IL-27 levels in the observation group compared with those in the control group with statistically signifi-cant difference (P<0. 05 or 0. 01). Conclusion:Asarone injections can decrease the levels of IL-25, IL-27and ECP in the serum of asthma patients and inhibit the formation of inflammatory cells to alleviate the symptoms of airway inflammation.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of heat stress on the cytoskeleton and cell cycle of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) in vitro.Methods HUVEC was cultured in vitro in 5%CO2 medium at 37℃ (control group) or 43℃ (heat stress group) for 1 hour. Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 staining was used to determine the effect of heat stress on the cytoskeleton. The cells in heat stress group were subsequently cultured at 37℃in 5%CO2 medium after heat stress for 1 hour, and cell cycle of HUVEC was determined at 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 hours with flow cytometry.Results Under light microscopy normal cytoskeleton was observed in control group, but thicker and shorter cytoskeleton was found after a rise of temperature, and stress fibers were found in heat stress group. The DNA content of HUVEC at all time points in G0/G1 stage was 38.07%-55.19% after heat stress. The DNA content in control group was 48.57%, and it was 54.06%, 55.19%, 48.23%, 38.07%, and 41.03% at 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours in G0/G1 stage in heat stress group. DNA content in S phase was 35.33%-48.18%. The DNA content in control group was 44.62%, and it was 35.33%, 39.50%, 42.50%, 48.18%, and 47.99% at 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours in S stage in heat stress group. DNA content in G2/M phase was 5.31%-13.75%. The DNA content in control group was 6.81, and it was 10.61%, 5.31%, 9.27%,13.75%, and 10.98% at 0, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours in G2/M stage in heat stress group. It was demonstrated that compared with control group, the DNA content in G0/G1 stage was significantly increased when the HUVEC were separated from heat stress within 6 hours, and it recovered at a similar level as control group at 12 hours.Conclusion Heat stress can change the cytoskeleton of HUVEC, and cause stagnation at G0/G1 stage in cell cycle.
