ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the effects of Terra Flavausta on diarrhea mice with spleen yang deficiency based on metabonomics. Methods:Totally 30 mice were divided into normal group, model group and Terra Flavausta group according to random number table method. Mice in the model group and Terra Flavausta group were treated by the method of "diet disorder + clearing fire with herbs bitter in flavour and cold in property" to establish the diarrhea model of spleen yang deficiency. After successful modeling, Terra Flavausta group received Zaoxintu Decoction 12.0 g/kg for gavage, while normal group and model group were given equal volume of distilled water for gavage, for consecutive 7 d. The serum metabolites of each mouse were analyzed and identified based on UPLC-Q-Exective-MS. The differential metabolites were characterized by principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis, and the potential biomakers were screened, and the KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed. Results:Totally 110 different metabolites were screened under the positive and negative ion mode. Terra Flavausta can effectively reverse the disorder of serum metabolism in diarrhea mice with spleen yang deficiency, and has a significant callback effect on 12 potential biomarkers related to diarrhea with spleen yang deficiency. KEGG pathway enrichment mainly involved HIF-1 signaling pathway, ascorbate and aldarate metabolism, platelet activation, etc. Conclusion:Terra Flavausta may play the effect of warming spleen and relieving diarrhea through down-regulation of L-ascorbic acid affecting HIF-1 signal pathway, ascorbic acid and aldose metabolism pathway, vitamin digestion and absorption pathway, up-regulation of prostaglandins G2 and H2 affecting platelet activation pathway, and down-regulation of jasmonic acid α linolenic acid metabolic pathway.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the individualized cavity Single branch stent grafting through rebuilding the aortic arch surgery in 26 cases of the application of the Stanford type A aortic dissection. Methods From 2010 January to 2014 October, 26 patients received Stanford type A aortic dissection surgery, 26 patients received individualized cavity single branch stent grafting to rebuild the aortic arch surgery , together with improved myocardial protection fluid. Results In the present study, 26 cases with aortic dissection that were treated with single branch stent grafting for the reconstruction of aortic arch under DHCA and selective cerebral perfusion. Twenty-six patients received individualized cavity single branch stent grafting reconstruction of aortic arch surgery alone, and were stopped by using deep cryogenic loop (DHCA) plus selective cerebral perfusion surgical treatment. One patient suffered from permanent nerve dysfunction iand give up treatment. Conclusion The sexua branch stent grafting in reconstruction of aortic arch operation could simplify the operation procedures , shorten the operation time, and reduce the amount of blood transfusion and postoperative drainage.
ABSTRACT
Poria cocos,Cortex Poriae,Polyporusumbellatusand Alisma orientalisare common tra-ditionaI Chinese diuretic medicines. According to reported Iiterature,P.cocostriterpenes and poIysaccha-rides,steroids and tetracycIic triterpenes are the main chemicaI components of P.cocos,its epidermis, Pol.umbellatusand A.orientalis,respectiveIy. most of these diuretic drugs contain tetracycIic triterpenes and steroids,which have a simiIar structure to aIdosterone nucIeus structure. Therefore,this characteris-tic may reveaI their diuretic mechanisms. The tetracycIic triterpenes and steroids may exert diuretic effect through competitive inhibition of aIdosterone receptors in different parts of tubuIar reabsorption to increase urine output. The present articIe reviewed the chemicaI components of these diuretic Chinese medicines. Furthermore,their bioactive components and action mechanisms were aIso anaIyzed and discussed.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:The research at home and abroad for appropriate immature myocardial cardioplegia has no breakthrough, and it may be a better mean to improve the protection effect of existing cardioplegia on immature myocardial by adding ingredients. Adenosine can reduce ischemia and neutrophil-mediated reperfusion injury, and salvia miltiorrhiza can reduce the content of ischemic myocardial lipid peroxide and increase the scavenging of myocardial cells to oxygen radical. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protection effect of improved myocardial protection fluid containing adenosine and salvia miltiorrhiza on the heart, liver and kidney. METHODS:Sixty cases of infant open heart operation of the first time were randomly divided into three groups, 20 cases in each group. The adenosine group received the improved myocardial protection fluid added with adenosine, the combination group received the improved myocardial protection fluid added with adenosine and miltiorrhiza salvia, and the control group received the improved myocardial protection fluid in the same volume. The blood samples were taken at the time before anesthesia induction, 30 minutes after cardio pulmonary bypass beginning, 1 hour after cardio pulmonary bypass end and 24 hours after cardio pulmonary bypass end. The serum levels of the creatine kinase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, interleukin-8 and interleukin 10 were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The serum levels of the alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and creatine kinase in three groups were increased, but the control group was increased significantly (P<0.01), and there were significant differences between adenosine group and combination group (P<0.05);the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 were significantly increased after operation (P<0.05). The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 in the control group were significantly higher than those in the adenosine group and combination group before induction and at the same time point (P<0.01);at 3 minutes and 24 hours after cardio pulmonary bypass, the level of interleukin-10 was increased in three groups, but the level of interleukin-10 in the adenosine group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). The results indicate that improved myocardial protection fluid has great protection effect on immature myocardial, and can significantly reduce the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 and interleukin-8, promote the secretion of interleukin-10 that can inhibit inflammatory cytokine and can significantly reduce the inflammatory response caused by cardiopulmonary bypass. So the improved myocardial protection fluid has protection effect on important organs, such as heart, lung, liver and kidney.
