ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Huashi Runzao prescription (HRP) on the histopathological injury and function of submandibular gland in naive non-obese diabetic (NOD/Ltj) mouse model of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) and its regulatory effect on aquaporin 5 (AQP5) expression in submandibular gland cells. MethodThe SS model was induced in NOD/Ltj mice. The NOD/Ltj female mice aged nine weeks were selected and randomly assigned into model group,HRP group (7.15 g·kg-1·d-1),and hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) group (1.30 g·kg-1·d-1), and female BALB/c mice in the same age were selected and assigned into the normal group, with six mice in each group. Drug intervention lasted eight weeks. The water consumption and salivary flow rate (SFR) of each group were recorded. The pathological staining results of the submandibular gland of mice in each group were observed and scored. AQP5 expression was determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blot. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group showed increased water consumption (P<0.05) and reduced SFR (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the HRP group showed decreased water consumption (P<0.05) and increased SFR (P<0.05), and the HCQ group showed increased SFR (P<0.05). In terms of histopathological results of the submandibular gland,compared with the normal group,the model group showed increased pathological score, number of lymphocyte infiltration foci,and percentage of lymphatic infiltration area (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the HRP group showed reduced pathological scores and number of lymphocyte infiltration foci (P<0.05), and the HRP group and the HCQ group showed reduced percentage of lymphatic infiltration area(P<0.05). The results of IHC and Western blot showed that compared with the normal group,the model group showed down-regulated expression level of AQP5 protein (P<0.05), and compared with the model group and the HCQ group,the HRP group showed up-regulated expression level of AQP5 protein (P<0.05). ConclusionHRP can improve the secretion function of submandibular gland acinous cells and glandular structure injury in SS model mice, and its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of AQP5 protein expression level in submandibular gland cells.
4.Mechanism study of interfered NFATc1 expression suppressing cell cycle progression in colorectal cancer cell
Acta Universitatis Medicinalis Anhui 2023;58(10):1701-1706
Objective :
Based on the expression of NFATc1 and prognosis in colorectal cancer,we interfered NFATc1 via shRNA transfection,analyzed the effect of NFATc1 on colorectal cancer cell proliferation,and further explored potential mechanisms.
Methods :
We explored the correlation between NFATc1 expression and the progno- sis of colorectal cancer using the TCGA database.Thereafter,we compared the expression of NFATc1 in colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues by immunohistochemical staining of postoperative samples from clinical colorectal cancer patients.We analyzed the effect of NFATc1 on colorectal cancer cell proliferation by measuring CCK-8 after NFATc1 interfered using shRNA transfection ; Tumorigenic potential of colorectal cancer cells was meas- ured with clone formation assay ; Cell cycle distribution was measured by flow cytometry after propidium iodide staining.The effect of NFATc1 on the transcriptional activity of cell-cycle-related factors was measured by qPCR.
Results :
Based on the TCGA data,we found that high NFATc1 expression in colorectal cancer patients was associated with poor prognosis.The expression of NFATc1 in clinical colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent normal tissues.Additionally,interference with NFATc1 inhibited the proliferation rate of colorectal canc- er cells in vitro,and the clonogenic capacity of cells was impaired.As expected,the cell cycle was arrested at the G0 / G1 phase.The qPCR results indicated that the knockdown of NFATc1 increased the transcriptional activity of multiple key cell cycle inhibitors.
Conclusion
NFATc1 promotes cell cycle progression by inhibiting the transcrip- tional activity of cell cycle regulatory factors,thereby promoting the proliferation and tumorigenic ability of colorectal cancer cells.

OBJECTIVE To compare the effect and safety of coblation plasma surgery and beclomethasone dipropionate nasal spray in the treatment of perennial allergic rhinitis. METHODS A stratified,randomized,controlled trial of surgery and medicament was performed in the treatment of perennial allergic rhinitis. A total number of 102 patients were involved in the trial,including 56 cases with swelling of inferior turbinate,28 cases in surgery group,28 cases in medicament group; and 46 cases without swelling of inferior turbinate,23 cases in surgery group,23 cases in medicament group. Coblation plasma surgery was performed in all surgery groups. Each patient was given 50?4?2 ?g/d of beclomethasone dipropionate nasal spray in all medicament groups,Treatment time was 3 months. The symptom scores (SS)and visual analogue scale(VAS)were recorded. RESULTS Effect assessment showed that both methods had significant repressive effect on allergic symptoms,the effect of surgery group was better than that of medicament group at the 14th day,28th day and 3th month in cases with swelling of inferior turbinate. Difference between the surgery group and medicament group in cases without swelling of inferior turbinate had no statistic significance. CONCLUSION Both coblation plasma surgery and beclomethasone dipropionate nasal spray are effective to treat perennial allergic rhinitis. But coblation plasma surgery is better than medicament in cases with swelling of inferior turbinate.

Objective:To conduct a clinical tretrospective study on the effect of Silymarin Meglumine Tab on acute and chronic hepatitis B and to explore the related clinical significance. Methods: 41 cases and 205 cases of hospitalized patients pathologically diagnosed as acute and chronic hepatitis B respectively by liver tissuse puncture were divided into three group: ① Silymarin Meglumine Tab group; ② Ganyanling group; ③ complex group consisting of Silymarin Meglumine Tab and Gangyanling and diammonium glycyrrhizinate. To detect the index of routine liver function test before and after the treatment and analyze the hospitalization treatment course. Results: Compared with before treatment, liver functions of acute and chronic hapatitis B were improved to certain extent within each group after treatment (P0.05). The hospitalization treatment time of acute hepatitis B of the three group were almost the same, but the hospitalization treatmeng time of chronic hepatitis B of the Silymarin Meglumine Tab group was 2-4days less than that of the Ganyanling group and the complex group. Conclusion: As far as Silybini Meglumine Tab was concerned, it was better for chronic hepatitis B than acute hepatitis B because it was less complicated to administer the medicine, relieving the liver's burden of metabolism, and hospitalization treatment time was shorter, relieving patients' financial burden,which suggested that it was important to administer proper amount of medicine while taking into consideration protecting the liver's compensation function. If consideration was given to stimulating liver microcirculation with small dosage of TCM, so as to promote the exchange of the liver metabolite in blood, or detoxication and expulsion of toxin, it was likely to be more advantageous to the restoration of liver function and the liver tissue structure.
