ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of propofol on rat′s limb ischemia reperfusion injury .Methods Sixty healthy SD rats were randomly divided into sham operate group ,ischemia-reperfusion group and propofol group (n= 20) ,each group was divided into 4 subgroups according to the different reperfusion time .To copy the right lower limb ischemia reperfusion model ,5 min before reperfusion ,use propofol injection (50 mg/kg ,intraperitoneal inject) ,various subjects in the corresponding time points (3 ,6 , 9 ,12 h) were sacrificed .TNF-α ,NF-κB of blood and MDA ,SOD of Skeletal muscle were measured ,calculate muscle wet dry weight ratio .Results Compared with ischemia reperfusion group ,propofol could significantly reduce expression of TNF-alpha ,NF-κB lev-els in serum (P< 0 .05) ,inhibit the increase of the MDA level and decrease of the SOD level in muscle (P< 0 .05) ,also reduce the extent of skeletal muscle cell edema(P< 0 .05) .Conclusion Propofol can attenuate limb ischemia reperfusion injury by inhibiting inflammation response and reducing the oxygen free radicals′ damage .
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the effects of several herbal medicines on SMMC-7721 liver cancer cells with Fourier transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR). Methods: FTIR was employed to determine the infrared spectra(IRs) of SMMC-7721 liver cancer cells cultivated for 20 h with the extracts of Spica prunellae, Herba houttuyniae, Radix bupleuri and Herba artemisiae scopariae. Cluster analysis of IRs was also performed. Results: IR spectral parameters such as band shape, intensity and frequency of the blank, control and herbal-extract-treated cells were compared. There existed obvious blue shift of ? s(PO 2 -), ? as (PO 2 -) bands, red shift of ? as (CH 3), ?(CH 2) bands on the herbal-extract-treated cells IRs. The decreasing ratio of ? as (CH 3) to ? s(CH 2) peak intensity and the increasing ratio of ? s(PO 2 -) to ?(N-H) peak area indicated the destructive effect of herbal extracts on the membrane structure of SMMU-7721 cells and inhibitory effect on the DNA replication respectively. Cluster analysis successfully discriminated the herbal-extract-treated cells from the blank cells and the liver-oriented medicines from the non-liver-oriented medicine. Conclusion: FTIR provides another fast and effective approach to analyze the changes of cells treated with Chinese herbal medicines, which may help to illuminate the functional mechanism of Chinese herbal medicines.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To search for the optimum formula for the self emulsification of evening primrose oil. Methods: Through solubility experiment, orthogonal screen and drawing phase diagram, taking the degree of emulsifying, the volume of the rest oil and emulsion particle size as parameters,the oil, non ionic surfactant and flux for the optimum formulation were screened. Results: In the formulation of evening primrose oil, taking Tween 85 as the non ionic surfactant and propylene glycol as the co surfactant can get the best effect of emulsifying. Conclusion: The optimum formula for self emulsification of evening primrose oil is evening primrose oil, Tween 85 and propylene glycol,with their proportion being 5∶7∶3.
