ABSTRACT

Carnosic acid (CA) is a natural phenolic diterpene compound found in rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) characterized as an ortho-dihydroquinone - type molecule. Multiple lines of studies have shown that CA has potent neuroprotective effects in vitro and in vivo in Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of the present review is to summarize the pharmacological neuroprotective actions of CA, and provide a comprehensive review of the molecular mechanism by which CA exert neuroprotective effect in PD. The current review highlights CA is a therapeutic potential for PD.

ABSTRACT

To investigate the effect and mechanism of metformin on intestinal epithelial barrier injury in ulcerative colitis. A cell model of colitis was established by co-culture of human colon cancer cell line Caco-2 and human monocyte cell line THP-1. The colitis model cells were treated with metformin at concentration of for Flow cytometry was used to detect Caco-2 cell apoptosis, and Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of tight junction proteins and endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins. After metformin treatment, the apoptosis rate of Caco-2 cells was decreased from (14.22±2.34)% to 0.61)% (=3.119, <0.05), and the expression levels of tight junction protein-1 and claudin-1 increased (=5.172 and 3.546, both <0.05). In addition, the expression levels of endoplasmic reticulum-related proteins glucose regulated protein (GRP) 78, C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP) and caspase-12, as well as the phosphorylation level of PRKR-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2α (eIF2α) decreased (all <0.05). Metformin may alleviate the intestinal epithelial barrier damage in colitis by reducing intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis and increasing the expression of tight junction proteins, which may be associated with the inhibition of endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced apoptotic pathway.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of HE’s needling method (three ways for unblocking) in treating mild simple obesity due to dampness from spleen deficiency.Method Forty eligible subjects with mild simple obesity due to dampness from spleen deficiency were randomized into group A and group B, 20 cases in each group. Group A was intervened by mild unblocking method plus intensive unblocking method from HE’s needling method, and group B was by mild unblocking method plus warm unblocking method. The obesity-related indexes were observed before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacies were compared.Result The body weight and Body Mass Index (BMI) were significantly changed after intervention in the treatment group (P0.05). The total effective rate was 55.0% in the treatment group versus 10.0% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).Conclusion HE’s needling method is effective in treating mild simple obesity due to dampness from spleen deficiency, and mild unblocking method plus intensive unblocking method can produce a more significant efficacy compared to mild unblocking method plus warm unblocking method.

ABSTRACT

In this paper are discussed the causes of artifacts appearing in the 24 hours' dynamic electrocardiogram. Then a new method based on the least square algorithm to discriminate the artifacts is proposed. Finally, the artifacts in the electrocardiogram (ECG) data collected from the hospital are analyzed. The results of experiment show that it is possible to quickly and effectively discriminate the artifacts caused by trembling, ill contact of electrode, and motion. The new method is conducive to ensuring clinicians' correct judgment of dynamic electrocardiogram signals.

ABSTRACT

It's necessary to monitor ECG and CO2, the two important physiological parameters. This paper designs a kind of realtime, wireless and concentrated monitoring system for ECG and CO2. With a high cost performance ratio, the system can be applied in the rooms for operation, monitoring, first aid and etc. At the same time, this paper does some researches on the antiinterference method for wireless communication.
