Study on the anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect of linarin in vivo and in vitro and its mechanism / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To investigate the anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect of linarin in vivo and in vitro， and investigate its mechanism preliminarily. METHODS C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal group （carboxymethylcellulose sodium）， model group （carboxymethylcellulose sodium）， positive control group （pirfenidone， 200 mg/kg）， linarin low-dose and high-dose groups （12.5， 25 mg/kg）， with 8 mice in each group. Except for normal group， pulmonary fibrosis model was induced in other groups. After modeling， they were given relevant medicine intragastrically， once a day， for consecutive 14 d. The general situation of mice was observed， and their lung indexes were measured； the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and transforming growth factor-β1（ TGF-β1） in serum and interleukin-6 （IL-6） in lung tissue were determined. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and Masson staining were used to observe the histopathological morphology of lung. The pulmonary fibrosis was scored according to Ashcroft score standard. The expressions of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） and （type Ⅰ collagen， Collagen Ⅰ）， phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase （p-ERK1/2） and TGF-β1 in lung tissues were detected. HFL1 cells were stimulated by TGF- β1 to form pulmonary fibrosis model in vitro， which were divided into normal group， model group and linarin low-， medium- and high-concentration groups （3.7， 7.4， 14.8 mg/L）. After being cultured for 48 h， the protein expressions of α-SMA， Collagen Ⅰ and p-ERK1/2 in HFL1 cells were detected. RESULTS In vivo， compared with normal group， the lung index of model group and the levels of TNF- α， TGF- β1 and IL-6 were significantly increased （P＜0.01）. There were a large number of inflammatory infiltration and cellular fibrosis lesions in the alveoli， and a large number of collagen depositions. The scores of HE staining and Masson staining were significantly increased （P＜0.01）. The protein expressions of α-SMA， Collagen Ⅰ， p-ERK1/2 and TGF-β1 in lung tissue were up-regulated significantly （P＜0.01）. Compared with model group， above indexes of mice were improved significantly in linarin high-dose group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， and most of indexes （except for lung index） were improved significantly in linarin low-dose group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In vitro， compared with blank group， the density of cells in the model group increased， and obvious proliferation and other changes occurred； protein expressions of α-SMA， Collagen Ⅰ and p-ERK1/2 were significantly up-regulated （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with model group， the cell density of each concentration group was decreased and the morphology gradually returned to normal； the expressions of above proteins in linarin high-concentration group and the protein expression of p-ERK1/2 in linarin medium-concentration group were down-regulated significantly（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Linarin may regulate ERK and inflammatory pathways to reduce the inflammatory response， thereby exerting anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect.

Optimal Ratio of Rehmanniae Radix and Lilii Bulbus in Baihe Dihuangtang Based on Antidepressant Activity and Its Mechanism / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ObjectiveBased on the antidepressant activity， the optimal ratio of Rehmanniae Radix and Lilii Bulbus in Baihe Dihuangtang was optimized and its possible mechanism was preliminarily explored. MethodA total of 100 male mice were randomly divided into normal group， model group， Rehmanniae Radix single decoction group， Lilii Bulbus single decoction group， and 5 different ratios of Baihe Dihuangtang group （Rehmanniae Radix-Lilii Bulbus 5∶6， 5∶5 ， 5∶4， 5∶3， 5∶2）， fluoxetine hydrochloride group. Except for the normal group， the remaining 9 groups were treated with chronic unpredictable mild stress method （CUMS） for 21 consecutive days to establish the depression mouse model.The Rehmanniae Radix single decoction group， Lilii Bulbus single decoction group and 5 different ratios of Baihe Dihuangtang group were administered with corresponding drugs at a dose of 2 g·kg-1 respectively， and fluoxetine hydrochloride group was administered fluoxetine hydrochloride at a dose of 0.01 g·kg-1， the normal group and the model group were respectively given an equal volume of normal saline by gavage for 21 consecutive days. The antidepressant effect of Baihe Dihuangtang with different ratios was evaluated by behavioral experiments. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF） and tyrosine kinase receptor B （TrkB） in hippocampus. The level of total superoxide dismutase （SOD） in hippocampus was detected by hydroxylamine method. The level of reduced glutathione （GSH） in hippocampus was detected by spectrophotometric method. The levels of glutathione peroxidase （GPX） and glutathione S-transferase （GST） in hippocampus was detected by colorimetric method. The level of malondialdehyde （MDA） in hippocampus was detected by thiobarbituric acid method， and preliminary exploration of its antidepressant mechanism. ResultCUMS caused a significant decrease in the preference rate of sugar water and a significant prolongation of forced swimming and tail suspension immobility time （P<0.01）， while the different ratios of Baihe Dihuangtang and the single decoction of Rehmanniae Radix and Lilii Bulbus were significantly reversed to varying degrees. Abnormalities of the above indicators were observed （P<0.05， P<0.01）， especially when the ratio of 5∶6 had the most obvious effect on the above indicators， Moreover， CUMS caused the hippocampal BDNF and the expression of TrkB， SOD and glutathione antioxidant-related indexes were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， and the levels of lipid peroxidation product MDA was significantly increased （P<0.01）. However， the superior ratio of Baihe Dihuangtang （Rehmanniae Radix-Lilii Bulbus 5∶6， 5∶5， 5∶4） and the single decoction of Rehmanniae Radix and Lilii Bulbus significantly reversed the abnormality of the above indicators to varying degrees （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionIn summary， 5 different ratios of Baihe Dihuangtang and the single decoction of Rehmanniae Radix and Lilii Bulbus can produce antidepressant effect， especially when the ratio of 5∶6 had the most obvious effect on the above indicators， and the antidepressant effect gradually weakens with the proportion of Lilii Bulbus in the recipe decreases， and its mechanism may involve enhancing the nutritional level and antioxidant defense ability of hippocampal central nervous system.

Progress on measurement tools and affecting factors for knowledge, attitude and practice of hospice care providers / 中华全科医师杂志

The provision of hospice care can improve the quality of life for terminal patients. Currently the measurement tools for knowledge, attitudes and practices(KAP)of hospice care providers have been developed and widely used internationally. This article reviews the measurement scales and relevant factors for KAP of hospice care to provide reference for further studies. The databases of CNKI, Wanfang data, PubMed, Web of Science databases, Google and Baidu search engines were systematically searched. According to the retrieval strategy, 42 literatures were finally included for analysis. The development of measurement scales and influencing factors about KAP of medical staff were reviewed from the included studies. It appeared some mature scales have been applied in different extent, or available for interpretation into different language versions. Most of researches adopted quantitative tools to measure medical staff's KAP on hospice care. The current researches conducted in China mainland showed a change on target population from nurses to specialized doctors and from a single group to multidisciplinary medical team. In the future, it would be more focusing on multidisciplinary team mainly comprised of general practitioners, nurses and social workers. Till recently, there is little literature evidence for study of the characteristics of localization.

Establishment of the reference intervals of four biochemical parameters for liver function among adults in Changchun, China based on the indirect method / 临床肝胆病杂志

Objective To establish the reference intervals (RIs) of the four biochemical parameters for liver function [aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT), and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)] in adults by using the indirect method based on the data of subjects undergoing physical examination in laboratory information system (LIS). Methods With the help of the LIS, related data were collected from the healthy adults who underwent physical examination in Physical Examination Center of The First Hospital of Jilin University from October 2019 to October 2020. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to check the normal distribution of the original data; data with skewed distribution were transformed into data with approximate normal distribution using the BOX-COX method; the Turkey method was used to remove outliers; the Mann-Whitney U test or the Z -test was used for comparison between groups; the non-parametric method was used to calculate RIs. Results A total of 27 218 subjects were included after the removal of outliers. All four parameters showed age and sex differences. The RIs of AST were 14-39 U/L for male individuals aged 20-79 years, 12-32 U/L for female individuals aged 20-49 years, and 14-39 U/L for female individuals aged 50-79 years; the RIs of ALT were 10-71 U/L for male individuals aged 20-54 years, 10-49 U/L for male individuals aged 55-79 years, 7-43 U/L for female individuals aged 20-49 years, and 9-49 U/L for female individuals aged 50-79 years; the RIs of GGT were 11-70 U/L for male individuals aged 20-64 years, 10-64 U/L for male individuals aged 65-79 years, 6-45 U/L for female individuals aged 20-49 years, and 7-54 U/L for female individuals aged 50-79 years; the RIs of ALP were 38-96 U/L for male individuals aged 20-79 years, 33-89 U/L for female individuals aged 20-49 years, and 40-106 U/L for female individuals aged 50-79 years. The RIs of AST, ALT, and GGT established in this study were similar to those in the industry standards of China (relative deviation < reference change value), and the RIs of all four biochemical parameters were verified by applicability. Conclusion The RIs of the four biochemical parameters for liver function established by the indirect method are relatively consistent with those established by the direct method, which holds promise for application in clinical laboratory.

Association between sleep with C reactive protein and insulin metabolism in adolescents / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To explore the relationship of sleep with C reactive protein (CRP) abnormality and hyperinsulinemia in adolescents, and to provide reference for early prevention of metabolic disorders.@*Methods@#Based on the Chinese Metabolic Syndrome Cohort Study in Anhui Province, a total of 653 adolescents aged 12 to 19 were selected to examine the relationship between wakeup time, bedtime, sleep disordered breathing (SDB) and CRP abnormality as well as hyperinsulinemia.@*Results@#Later wakeup time (OR=1.68, 95%CI=1.03-2.75) was positively correlated with a higher risk of fasting hyperinsulinemia. Late bedtime (OR=1.96, 95%CI=1.29-2.99) was associated with 2 h postprandial hyperinsulinemia. Among those with high CRP concentration, late wakeup time and late bedtime were positely associated with hyperinsulinemia than those with normal CRP concentration; and the correlation between SDB and hyperinsulinemia was observed.@*Conclusion@#Later wakeup and late bedtime may be risk factors for hyperinsulinemia in adolescents. High concentrations of CRP may further increase the risk of hyperinsulinemia, a condition associated with sleep problems.Teenagers should get up and go to bed as early as possible.

Outcomes of implanting porcine small intestinal submucosa mesh in rabbit vesicovaginal space / 中华妇产科杂志

Objective:To assess surgical outcomes of implanted porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) mesh in the rabbit vesicovaginal space (VVS) and explore its application value in pelvic floor reconstruction surgery.Methods:Sixteen male rabbits were randomly divided into four groups, and each group had four rabbits. All groups of rabbits were implanted with SIS mesh in the vesicovaginal space. They were humanely killed after a postoperative period of 7, 30, 90 and 180 days by group. The grafted area was removed with the surrounding bladder and vaginal tissues. The specimens were embedded in paraffin and then stained with HE and Masson's trichrome stains for visual observations, cells counts, and assessment of tissues and collagen fibers.Results:(1) After HE staining, a large number of inflammatory response cells mainly eosinophils and lymphocytes infiltrated around the SIS mesh in 7 days group, and neovascularization was observed, the infiltration area of inflammatory response cells further increased in 30 days group, the infiltration area of inflammatory response cells significantly reduced in 90 days group, while the inflammatory response basically subsided in 180 days group. (2) After Masson's trichromestaining, the collagen structure of SIS mesh in 7 days group was clear and intact. While, the collagen structure of SIS mesh was partially degraded in 30 days group, the SIS meshes of 4 rabbits were completely degraded, but the collagen fragments of SIS remained in 90 days group. In 180 days group, the SIS mesh of all rabbits was degraded, and one of them had the formation of new collagen fibers.Conclusions:SIS mesh implanted into the VVS of rabbits can lead to a transient non infective inflammatory reaction, which could be completely degraded and a small amount of new collagen fibers could be produced after 180 days of implantation. Which shown that SIS mesh should be used cautiously in pelvic floor reconstruction surgery.

Objective To explore the value of primary and Advanced levels of laparoscopic simulating training in different seniority of gynecologic residents.Methods 77 residents in their first to forth training-year were divided into two groups:1-2 year resident and 3-4 year resident,trained with different levels of simulating training plans respectively and then assessed in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology in Peking University Third Hospital.Results The qualified rate of primary and advanced simulation training was 85.7％ and 57.1％ respectively.The qualified rate of primary training (80.4％ vs.100.0％,P=0.028) and advanced training (12.5％ vs.57.14％,P=0.000) were significantly different between 1-2 year residents and 3-4 year residents.The operative skills improved significantly in all the residents.In the 1-2 year residents,the scores of the primary training increased more obviously,while in the 3-4 year residents,the scores of the advanced training increased significantly.Conclusion It might be more effective for residents with different seniority to receive different levels of simulating training accordingly,so as to improve their laparoscopic operative skills more effectively.

Effect of triterpenic acid-enriched fraction from Cyclocarya paliurus on high glucose-induced pancreatic α cells insulin resistance / 中国药科大学学报

@#To investigate the effect and possible mechanisms of triterpenic acid-enriched fraction from Cyclocarya paliurus(TAE)on glucagon secretion in insulin-resistance pancreatic α cells, the model of insulin resistance in αTC1-6 cells was induced by long term exposure to high glucose. Experimental groups were divided as follow: control(5. 5 mmol/L glucose), model(25 mmol/L), TAE(1, 5, 10 μg/mL), and TAE(10 μg/mL)plus wortmannin(10 nmol/L)group. The supernatant and lysate of treated cells were collected to determine glucagon secretion by ELISA kit. The mRNA and protein abundance of IRS-1, PI3K and Akt were measured by qPCR and Western blot analysis. Results showed that TAE could not only significantly reduce glucagon secretion induce by high glucose in a dose-dependent manner, but also remarkably increased the mRNA and protein abundance of IRS-1, PI3K and Akt in αTC1-6 cells. However, these effects of TAE were reversed by PI3K inhibitor wortmannin. In conclusion, it suggested that TAE could improve the insulin resistance induced by high glucose in pancreatic α cells which may be related with the activation of IRS-1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the effect of kangaroo mother care(KMC)on breastfeeding, behavior,body temperature and weight of full-term newborn. Methods A total of 80 full-term newborns from March to December of 2017 were selected by the convenience sampling method, and were randomly divided into control group and intervention group, with 40 cases each group. Routine obstetric nursing was provided for the newborns in the control group. In addition,one hour of KMC was provided for the newborns in the intervention group. The LATCH scores, neonatal behaviors, body temperature and weight were observed on daily basis. Meanwhile, an interview was conducted to investigate mothers′attitudes towards KMC. Results The LATCH scores of the intervention group for the second and third days were respectively (6.52±0.81) and (7.75±1.08), which were higher than that in control group (5.95±0.95), (7.02± 1.07). The differences were statistically significant (t=2.887,3.010,P<0.05). The behavioral status of neonates in the intervention group for 3 days was (3.65±1.12), (3.42±0.87), (3.35±1.07), all of which were lower than that in control group (4.57 ± 0.98), (4.50 ± 1.24), (4.65 ± 1.27), and the differences were statistically significant (t=-4.593,-8.285,-7.029, P<0.01). The interviews showed that 100.0％(40/40) of mothers were satisfied with KMC and were very happy in the process.95.0％(38/40)of mothers believe that KMC can increase mother-child relationships.82.5％(33/40)of mothers believe that KMC can keep children quiet.72.5％(29/40)of mothers feel that KMC can relieve pain in the abdomen or perineum. Conclusions In the hospital, 1h of KMC can make breastfeeding more effective and the newborn condition is more stable, which is worthy of clinical application.

Human amniotic epithelial cells transfected by enhanced green fluorescent protein gene mediated by adenovirus vector / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Human amniotic epithelial cells have some properties of stem cells, which can be induced to differentiate into corneal epithelial cells, but cannot be tracedin vitro. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility and infection efficiency of adenovirus vector carrying enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) into the human amniotic epithelial cells. METHODS:The adenovirus vectors carrying EGFP was transferred into human amniotic epithelial cells culturedin vitro. After cultured and amplified, the morphology difference between transfected and non-transfected human amniotic epithelial cels was observed. The transfected human amniotic epithelial cells were observed under fluorescence microscope, and the cell cycle and the expression rate of EGFP in transfected human amniotic epithelial cells were detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No obvious difference in the cell morphology was found between transfected human amniotic epithelial cells and normal human amniotic epithelial cells cultured in vitro. Flow cytometry analysis revealed that the EGFP positive rate was highest and reached up to 99.01% at 48 hours after transient transfection. The cell cycle of human amniotic epithelial cells transfected by the adenovirus vector was slowed a bit. To conclude, the adenovirus vector is a good medium of transfecting EGFP into human amniotic epithelial cells, and makes it more convenient to observe the further transformation of human amniotic epithelial celsin vitro.

Ramsay sedation scores increased in 0.020-0.035mg/mL group and decreased in 0.065-0.095mg/mL group,but no significant change in 0.050mg/mL group. The incidence of adverse reactions was the lowest in the 0.050 mg/mL group. Conclusion HYD can be used for postoperative analgesia in elderly patients undergoing hip joint surgery,the concentration of HYD was correlated with the analgesic efficiency, and the recommended concentration was 0.050 mg/mL.

Evaluation of in vitro insulin release from nanoparticles assembled by polyethylene glycol, polycaprolactone and polyethyleneimine / 南方医科大学学报

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To prepare insulin-loaded polymeric nanoparticles based on polyethyleneimine-polycaprolactone- polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone-polyethyleneimine pentablock copolymers and evaluate its in vitro release of insulin.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Polycaprolactone-polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone (PCL-PEG-PCL) triblock copolymer was synthesized by ring-opening polymerization method, and the pentablock copolymer was prepared by Michael addition reaction. The copolymers obtained were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and (1)H-NMR and their critical aggregation concentration (CAC) was measured by fluorescence technique with pyrene as the probe. Insulin-loaded polymeric nanoparticles based on the pentablock copolymers were prepared by solvent evaporation method that exploited the cationic nature of PEI-PCL-PEG-PCL-PEI to allow the formation of ionic complexes with anionic biomolecules such as insulin. The prepared nanoparticles were further characterized by Malvern laser particle sizer and transmittion electron microscopy (TEM). The drug loading, encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release profile of the nanoparticles were analyzed using Bradford method.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Using copolymer PEI10K-PCL4K-PEG2K-PCL4K-PEI10K as the drug carrier, the spherical nanoparticles prepared with an optimal insulin-coplymer mass ratio of 40% allowed the maximum insulin loading of (18.63∓0.07)% and had an average particle size of 175.30∓19.51 nm. The prepared nanoparticles was capable of sustained release of insulin for as long as 48 h in vitro, and the burst release could be minimized by incorporation of PEI in the triblock copolymer.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The insulin-loaded polymeric nanoparticles based on the pentablock copolymers allow sustained release of insulin in vitro, and PEI can enhance sustained drug release and reduce burst drug release.</p>

Clinical Characteristics and Treatment of External Auditory Canal Cholesteatoma / 听力学及言语疾病杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment of external auditory canal chol‐esteatoma (EACC) .Methods The clinical data of 38 cases(39 ears)with external auditory canal cholesteatoma from August 2006 to December 2014 were retrospectively analyzed .Results All the cases of EACC in this study had the external ear canal full of impacted squamous material or granulation tissue .The Holt and CT imaging examinations disclosed that 10 ears were phase I ,lesions were confined to the external auditory with no bone destruction .There were 23 ears were phase II ,the lesions were located in external auditory meatus with destruction of bone ,but with no involvement of the middle ear .There were 6 ears were phase III ,showing the lesions with disrupt external audi‐tory meatus and involvement of the middle ear ( mastoid and/or tympanic sinus) .Hearing impairment and aural fullness were the most common symptoms .The phase I cases were treated by removing cholesteatomas from the ex‐ternal auditory canal .Canaloplasty and/or tympanoplasty were performed in phase II cases .The phase III cases were successfully managed by modified radical mastoidectomy and/or tympanoplasty .There were 30 ears of tympan‐ic membrane were perfect and invaginate .There were 4 ears of ossicular chain were disrupted with one ear of facial nerve exposed .All surgeries were performed at once .No recurrence except in one patient was found during the fol‐low -up period .Conclusion The clinical stages can help identify the primary lesions and determine the choice of the best surgical approach .
