OBJECTIVE Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is semblable to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) which causes respiratory infections typically characterized by cough, runny nose, fever, and nasal congestion but sometimes progressing to bronchiolitis and pneumonia. Whereas, there is no corresponding drug to inhabit the virus. Studies of new compounds with potential anti-HMPV activity could produce clinical value. Chinese herbal medicine played a great role during COVID-19, therefore we choose some small molecular (JH001) extracted from botany to investigate therapeutic effect on hMPV and the underlying mechanisms. METHODS In this study, 16HBE cells were used as a model to explore in vitro antiviral effect. Cytotoxicity assays were performed before the antiviral tests, cell viability of 16HBE cells handled by different concentration of JH001 was estimated by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8). Then RT-qPCR, immunofluores?cence, and flow cytometer were used to test the viral titer after cells infected with hMPV. Eventually, 6-8 weeks mice were infected intranasally with 60 μL of hMPV, the control group was treated with 0.9％ saline water, other groups were administered with JH001 and ribavirin, then the lung virus titer and protective effect in lung were judged. RESULTS The obtained JH001 exhibited no cytotoxicity to 16HBE cells during 6.25 - 200 μmol · L-1. RT-QPCR demonstrated that JH001 showed obvious inhabitation to the viral replication and showed great significance compared with saline. And fluo?rescence exhibited distinct decrease of hMPV-N protein, flow cytometer results showed that MFI decrease evidently. Sig?nificant reduction of N-gene expression was observed in those mice treated with JH001 compared with saline group, which indicated that JH001 probably had protective and therapeutic effect on viral replication. CONCLUSION This study illustrated that JH001 might be a promising option for small molecular against hMPV and JH001 might be worthy of fur?ther development and used as a potential therapeutic strategy for other respiratory viruses in the future.
ABSTRACT
Studies with electroencephalography, transcranial Doppler (TCD), magnetic resonance, positron emission tomography (PET), and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) have achieved some positive results for depression in children and adolescents. Electroencephalographic studies found that the patients' α, β, δ, θ waves, and P300, P200, N100 and N200 in event-related potential (ERP) were significantly different from typical ones, and cortical activation area was uneven. TCD, magnetic resonance, PET and SPECT studies found that the patients with depression occurred cerebral blood flow abnormalities in frontal lobe and temporal lobe. Magnetic resonance studies found that there were brain structural and metabolic abnormalities in frontal lobe, left fusiform gyrus and anterior cingulate cortex, and N-acetyl aspartate, creatine, choline and glutamate might be a part of the cause of depression.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To overall evaluate the mutual detoxication mechanism of Tripterygii Radix et Rhizoma(LGT) compatible with Lysimachiae Herba(JQC) in tumor-bearing state.Method: Twelve differentially characteristic components before and after compatibility were used as chemical composition spectrum,six indicators including serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),creatinine(Cr) and urea nitrogen(BUN),malondialdehyde(MDA) levels in the liver and kidney tissues were used as attenuation spectrum,and twelve biological indicators including glutathione(GSH),glutathione-S-transferase(GST),glutathione peroxidase(GPx),superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT) and interleukin(IL)-10 in the liver and kidney were used as the biological information spectrum.Mutual detoxication mechanisms of LGT compatible with JQC in tumor-bearing state were overall evaluated by principal component analysis(PCA),and the contribution of chemical components and biological indicators to mutual detoxication was further evaluated by gray correlation analysis(GCA) of "chemical composition spectrum-attenuation spectrum-biological information spectrum".Result: Compared with the model group,the attenuation spectrum scores Z values of S180(Z1 value) and H22(Z3 value) increased significantly after LGT being used alone(PZ1 value and Z3 value caused by LGT when the ratio of LGT and JQC was 4:1,2:1,1:1,1:2 and 1:4(PZ values(Z1 value and Z3 value) of LGT-JQC in the mass ratios including 4:1,1:1,1:2 and 1:4 was significantly higher than that in the ratio of 2:1(PZ values of the bioinformatics scores in the S180(Z2 value) and H22(Z4 value) tumor-bearing state,these two values were significantly increased after compatibility with JQC.The chemical components contributing the most to the attenuating effect of S180 and H22 in tumor-bearing state were 3# and 10#,respectively.The most important biological indicators were kidney GPx and renal GSH.Conclusion: LGT combined with JQC in the mass ratio of 4:1-1:4 can attenuate LGT-induced subacute toxicity in S180 and H22 tumor-bearing state,and the best ratio of such effect is 2:1.The attenuating effect reflects the thought of "there is no reason why there is no meteorology".The mechanism of attenuating action involves antioxidative damage and anti-inflammatory reaction of the liver and kidney,especially the renal GPx(S180) and renal GSH(H22) as the greatest contribution to the detoxication mechanism.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>Background</b>Percutaneous transluminal septal myocardial ablation (PTSMA) and modified Morrow septal myectomy (MMSM) are two invasive strategies used to relieve obstruction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). This study aimed to determine the clinical outcome of these two strategies.</p><p><b>Methods</b>From January 2011 to January 2015, 226 patients with HCM were treated, 68 by PTSMA and 158 by MMSM. Both ultrasonic cardiograms and heart functional class were recorded before, after operations and in the follow-up. Categorical variables were compared using Chi-square or Fisher's exact tests. Quantitative variables were compared using the paired samples t-test.</p><p><b>Results</b>Interventricular septal thickness was significantly reduced in both groups (21.27 ± 4.43 mm vs. 18.72 ± 4.13 mm for PTSMA, t = 3.469, P < 0.001, and 21.83 ± 5.03 mm vs. 16.57 ± 3.95 mm for MMSM, t = 10.349, P < 0.001, respectively). The left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) pressure gradient (PG) significantly decreased after the operations in two groups (70.30 ± 44.79 mmHg vs. 39.78 ± 22.07 mmHg for PTSMA, t = 5.041, P < 0.001, and 74.58 ± 45.52 mmHg vs. 13.95 ± 9.94 mmHg for MMSM, t = 16.357, P < 0.001, respectively). Seven patients (10.29%) in the PTSMA group required a repeat operation in the follow-up. Eight (11.76%) patients were evaluated for New York Heart Association (NYHA) III/IV in the PTSMA group, which was significantly more than the five (3.16%) in the same NYHA classes for the MMSM group at follow-up. Less than 15% of patients in the PTSMA group and none of the patients in the MMSM group complained of chest pain during follow-up.</p><p><b>Conclusions</b>Both strategies can not only relieve LVOT PG but also improve heart function in patients with HCM. However, MMSM might provide a more reliable reduction in gradients compared to PTSMA.</p>
ABSTRACT
Panax quinquefolium and Panax ginseng were investigated using non-linear chemical fingerprint technology, and a novel method to identify two ginsengs and different producing areas of P. quinquefolium was put forward. The non-linear chemical fingerprints of P. quinquefolium(collected from Canada, Jilin and Shaanxi)and P. ginseng (collected from Jilin)were obtained by reactions took place in the system of "H2SO4-MnSO4-CH3COCH3-NaBrO3" and their system similarities were evaluated. In the meantime, the quality difference in P. quinquefolium from different producing areas was evaluated using HPLC to determine the contents of main 7 ginsenosides. As a result, the non-linear chemical fingerprints exhibited a good reproducibility and characteristic when dosage of detection was 0.4 g and the reaction temperature was 37 ℃. The fingerprint characteristics of P. quinquefolium were obviously different from P. ginseng. The two species of ginsengs could be distinguished by the visual fingerprint characteristics, and P. quinquefolium from different producing areas were identified by the system similarities. Furthermore, HPLC analysis showed that the quality P. quinquefolium from different producing areas was varied, which indicated that rapid identification and quality evaluation of P. quinquefolium become very important and necessary. Compared with HPLC technology, non-linear chemical fingerprint is a more convenient, rapid and economic technology. This study provides a novel strategy to distinguish and evaluate P. quinquefolium and P. ginseng, which will provide a reference for the quality evaluation and control of Chinese medicine.

<p><b>AIM</b>To investigate the roles of alpha1 and alpha2 receptors in the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS) in the carotid baroreflex (CBR) resetting induced by the intracerebroventricular injection (ICV) of histamine (HA).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The left and right carotid sinus regions were isolated from the systemic circulation in 25 Sprague-Dawley rats anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium. The intracarotid sinus pressure (ISP) was altered in a stepwise manner. ISP-mean arterial pressure (MAP) relationship curve and its characteristic parameters were constructed by fitting to the logistic function with five parameters. The changes in CBR performance induced by ICV HA and the effects of pretreatment with alpha1 or alpha2 receptor antagonist into the NTS on the responses of CBR to HA were examined.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>ICV HA (60 micromol x L(-1) in 5 microl) significantly shifted the ISP-MAP relationship curve upwards (P < 0.05) and moved the middle part of ISP-Gain relationship curve downwards (P < 0.05), and reduced the MAP range and maximum gain (P < 0.05). The pretreatment with phenoxybenzamine (PBZ, a selective antagonist of alpha1 receptor, 3 micromol x L(-1) in 500 nl) or yohimbine (YOH, a selective antagonist of alpha2 receptor, 2.5 micromol x L(-1) in 500 nl) into the NTS could obviously intensify the above-mentioned changes in CBR performance induced by HA, but the intensive effect of PBZ was less remarkable than that of YOH (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The intracerebroventricular administration of HA results in a rapid resetting of CBR and a decrease in reflex sensitivity, and the functions of alpha1 and alpha2 receptors in the NTS might weaken CBR resetting induced by ICV HA. Furthermore, alpha2 receptor in the NTS might play an more important role in modulating the responses of CHR to HA.</p>
