Rheumatoid arthritis belongs to arthralgia syndrome in the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, and cold-dampness obstruction syndrome and dampness-heat obstruction syndrome are core syndromes and main syndrome differentiation types of this disease. Fine therapeutic effects have been obtained in the long-term clinical practice of many famous traditional Chinese medicine practitioners following the syndrome differentiation and treatment based on the guiding principles of cold and heat. To adapt to the clinical diagnosis practice of combining disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation, and to better carry out basic research on integrated Chinese and Western medicine and preclinical study on new traditional Chinese medicines, Guidelines for Establishing Animal Models of Rheumatoid Arthritis with Cold-Dampness Obstruction Syndrome and Dampness-Heat Obstruction Syndrome (hereinafter referred to as the Guidelines) were compiled by our research group, in cooperation with the renowned experts in research fields including traditional Chinese medicine, clinical medicine, zoology and evidence-based medicine, which provide a meaningful reference for scientific research, teaching and clinical applications. The compilation process of the Guidelines was guided by the theory of disease and syndrome integration and the principles of "evidence takes the main place, consensus plays an auxiliary role, and experience serves as the reference". Based on the comprehensive evaluation of pathogenesis homology, behavioral phenotypic consistency, and drug treatment predictability compared between animal models and human diseases, by the nominal group method, "recommendations" were formed for recommendations supported by evidence, and "consensus recommendations" were formed for recommendations not supported by evidence. Guidelines were formed involving content such as animal types, arthritis modeling methods, external stimulation conditions, and modeling assessment indicators during the establishment of the animal models of rheumatoid arthritis with cold-dampness obstruction syndrome and dampness-heat obstruction syndrome. The Guidelines are applicable for the disease and syndrome research on rheumatoid arthritis, investigation of therapeutic mechanisms, and development of new traditional Chinese medicine. The Guidelines also provide a reference for the establishment of guidelines on other types of diseases and syndromes combined with animal models to further promote the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine research and its integration with international academic development.

ObjectiveUltra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) was used to identify the metabolites of harmine in rats, in order to explore the differences in distribution of metabolites in rats after single dose(40 mg·kg-1) intragastric administration of harmine, as well to speculate the metabolic pathways. MethodSD rats were given a single dose of harmine by intragastric administration. Plasma, bile, urine and feces samples were collected after administration, and the samples were processed for determination by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS. The separation was performed on an ACQUITY UPLC™ HSS T3 columu(2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.8 μm) with acetonitrile(A)-0.1% formic acid aqueous solution(B) as mobile phase for gradient elution(0-2 min, 5%A; 2-9 min, 5%-35%A; 9-9.5 min, 35%-100%A; 9.5-12 min, 100%A; 12-12.5 min, 100%-5%A; 12.5-14 min, 5%A), the mass spectra were obtained in positive ion mode with electrospray ionization(ESI), the scanning range was m/z 50-1 200. The metabolites of harmine were identified based on the information of the obtained compounds and the literature data, and the metabolic pathways were hypothesized. ResultA total of 42 compounds(harmine and its metabolites) were identified in rats, including 27 in plasma, 17 in bile, 26 in urine and 13 in feces. The metabolic pathways involved in these 42 metabolites included monohydroxylation, dihydroxylation, demethylation, glucuronidation and sulfation. ConclusionHarmine can undergo phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ metabolic reactions in rats, and the prototype drug is metabolized rapidly in vivo, and the metabolites are mainly excreted by the kidneys, which can provide a reference basis for the pharmacodynamics and material basis of harmine.

Objective:To investigate the expression of LACTB and GST-π in endometrial carcinoma and their correlation with estrogen and progesterone receptors.Methods:A total of 165 patients with endometrial cancer admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2015 to Oct. 2020 were selected to observe the expression of LACTB, GST-π, estrogen and progesterone receptors in patients with different tumor stages, degrees of differentiation, muscular infiltration, tissue type, tumor diameter and whether there was lymph node metastasis. The correlation between the expression of LACTB and GST-π and the expression of female and progesterone receptors and the survival of patients with different expressions of LACTB and GST-π were analyzed.Results:The LATCB positive rate decreased in patients with tumor stage III to IV, high differentiation, myometrial infiltration ≥1/2, tissue type I, tumor diameter <2 cm and no lymph node metastasis ( P<0.05), and the GST-π positive rate was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The positive rate of GST-π in patients with chemotherapy resistance was higher than that in patients with chemotherapy sensitivity, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The positive rate of estrogen receptor decreased in patients with tumor stage III to IV, high differentiation, tissue type II, no lymph node metastasis, and chemotherapy resistance, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The positive rate of progesterone receptor decreased in patients with tumor stage III to IV, low differentiation, tissue type I and no lymph node metastasis, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). In this study, 110 patients with LACTB positive expression were detected, with an average LACTB positive staining intensity (25.92±4.77) %, and 99 patients with GST-π positive expression were detected, with an average GST-π positive staining intensity (27.46±4.83). A total of 50 patients with LACTB positive and GST-π negative had an average survival time of (41.48±5.52) months, a total of 39 patients with LACTB negative and GST-π positive had an average survival time of (21.25±3.15) months, and a total of 60 patients with LACTB positive and GST-π positive had an average survival time of (21.25±3.15) months. The mean survival time of 16 patients with both LACTB negative and GST-π negative was 29.31±3.77 months. The mean survival time was 31.54±4.61 months. Pearson correlation test showed that the staining intensity of LACTB positive staining was positively correlated with the survival time of patients. The positive staining intensity of GST-π was negatively correlated with survival (correlation coefficient =0.392, -0.284, P<0.01). Pearson correlation analysis showed that LACTB was positively correlated with estrogen and progesterone receptors. GST-π was negatively correlated with estrogen receptor ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The expression of LACTB in patients with endometrial cancer is associated with the disease of the patients. The survival of patients with high expression is longer. The expression of GST-π is associated with the chemotherapy resistance of patients, both of which can be used as indicators to evaluate the prognosis of patients. Moreover, the expressions of LACTB and GST-π are correlated with the expression of female and progesterone receptors, which may be regulated by the expression of female and progesterone receptors.
