ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the potential value of CT Radiomics model in predicting the response to first-line chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods: Pre-treatment CT images and clinical data of DLBCL patients treated at Shanxi Cancer Hospital from January 2013 to May 2018 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into refractory patients (73 cases) and non-refractory patients (57 cases) according to the Lugano 2014 efficacy evaluation criteria. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression algorithm, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to screen out clinical factors and CT radiomics features associated with efficacy response, followed by radiomics model and nomogram model. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and clinical decision curve were used to evaluate the models in terms of the diagnostic efficacy, calibration and clinical value in predicting chemotherapy response. Results: Based on pre-chemotherapy CT images, 850 CT texture features were extracted from each patient, and 6 features highly correlated with the first-line chemotherapy effect of DLBCL were selected, including 1 first order feature, 1 gray level co-occurence matrix, 3 grey level dependence matrix, 1 neighboring grey tone difference matrix. Then, the corresponding radiomics model was established, whose ROC curves showed AUC values of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.76-0.89) and 0.73 (95% CI: 0.60-0.86) in the training and validation groups, respectively. The nomogram model, built by combining validated clinical factors (Ann Arbor stage, serum LDH level) and CT radiomics features, showed an AUC of 0.95 (95% CI: 0.90-0.99) and 0.91 (95% CI: 0.82-1.00) in the training group and the validation group, respectively, with significantly better diagnostic efficacy than that of the radiomics model. In addition, the calibration curve and clinical decision curve showed that the nomogram model had good consistency and high clinical value in the assessment of DLBCL efficacy. Conclusion: The nomogram model based on clinical factors and radiomics features shows potential clinical value in predicting the response to first-line chemotherapy of DLBCL patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate different methods' efficacy of controlling acute bleeding and managing long-term menstruation in patients with heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) associated with antithrombotic therapy. Methods: The clinical data of 22 cases with HMB associated with antithrombotic therapy admitted to Peking University People's Hospital from January 2010 to August 2022 were analyzed, aged 39 years old (26-46 years). Changes in menstrual volume, hemoglobin (Hb), and quality of life were collected after control of acute bleeding and long-term menstrual management. Menstrual volume was assessed by pictorial blood assessment chart (PBAC), and quality of life was assessed by menorrhagia multi-attribute scale (MMAS). Results: (1) Treatment of acute bleeding: of the 22 cases with HMB associated with antithrombotic therapy, 16 cases were treated in our hospital and 6 in other hospital for emergency bleeding; of the 16 cases treated in our hospital, 3 underwent emergency intrauterine Foley catheter balloon compression due to severe bleeding (Hb decreased by 20 to 40 g/L within 12 hours). Of the 22 cases with antithrombotic therapy-related HMB, 15 (including 2 cases with severe bleeding) underwent emergency aspiration or endometrial resection, and intraoperative placement of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) followed by a significant reduction in bleeding volume; 3 cases had controlled acute bleeding after rivaroxaban dose reduction and continued observation; 2 cases were given gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists to control acute bleeding in other hospital, of which 1 case was temporarily treated with periodic blood transfusion, and the other one patient underwent total hysterectomy; and 2 cases had temporary amenorrhea with oral mifepristone after intrauterine balloon compression or oral norethindrone. (2) Long-term menstrual management: of the 22 cases with antithrombotic therapy-related HMB, 15 had LNG-IUS placement and 12 had LNG-IUS placement for 6 months, and menstrual volume was significantly reduced [PBAC scores were 365.0 (272.5-460.0) vs 25.0 (12.5-37.5), respectively; Z=4.593, P<0.001], Hb was significantly increased [91.5 g/L (71.8-108.2 g/L) vs 128.5 g/L (121.2-142.5 g/L); Z=4.695, P<0.001], and quality of life was significantly improved [MMAS scores were 415.0 (327.5-472.5) vs 580.0 (570.0-580.0), respectively; Z=-3.062, P=0.002] before placement compared with 6 months after placement. Three rivaroxaban dose reduction patients' PBAC scores decreased by 20 to 35 but remained >100, and perceived quality of life did not change significantly. Two cases with temporary amenorrhea treated with oral mifepristone felt significantly improved quality of life, and the MMAS scores increased by 220 and 180, respectively. Conclusion: Intrauterine Foley catheter balloon compression, aspiration or endometrial ablation could be used to control acute bleeding in patients with antithrombotic therapy-related HMB, and LNG-IUS for long-term management could reduce menstrual volume, increase hemoglobin, and improve the quality of life of patients.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the protective effect and mechanism of Kuntai (KT) Capsule on angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced hypertension in ovariectomized (OVX) rats.@*METHODS@#Fifty-four rats were randomly divided into 6 groups according to a random number table, 9 in each group: control, OVX sham+Ang II, OVX, OVX+Ang II, OVX+Ang II +E2, and OVX+Ang II +KT. OVX rats model was constructed by retroperitoneal bilateral ovariectomy. After 4 weeks of pretreatment with KT Capsule [0.8 g/(kg·d) and 17- β -estradiol (E2, 1.2 mg/(kg·d)] respectively, Ang II was injected into a micro-osmotic pump with a syringe to establish a hypertensive rat model. Blood pressure of rat tail artery was measured in a wake state of rats using a non-invasive sphygmomanometer. Blood pressure changes were compared between the intervention groups (OVX+Ang II +KT, OVX+Ang II +E2) and the negative control group (OVX+Ang II). Serum malondialdehyde (MDA) level and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were detected respectively. The expressions of oxidative stress-related protein superoxide dismutase2 (SOD2) and anti-thioredoxin (TRX), autophagy marker protein [beclin1, light chain (LC) 3 II/I ratio and autophagy canonical pathway protein phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/serine/threonine kinase (AKT)-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)] were evaluated by Western blotting.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the OVX+Ang II group, the systolic blood pressure of OVX+Ang II +KT group was significantly lowered (P<0.05) but not the diastolic blood pressure. Besides, SOD2 and TRX protein levels in mycardial tissues were significantly reduced in the OVX+Ang II +KT group compared with the OVX+Ang II group (P<0.05). Oxidative stress serum markers MDA and SOD were down- and up-regulated in the OVX+Ang II +KT group, respectively (P<0.05). Compared with OVX+Ang II group, the levels of cardiac proteins beclin-1 and LC3II/LC3 I in OVX+Ang II +KT group were also up-regulated (P<0.05), and the expression levels of p-PI3K, p-AKT and mTOR protein were down-regulated (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#KT could protect blood pressure of Ang II-induced OVX rats by inhibiting oxidative stress and up-regulating protective autophagy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical and ultrasound image characteristics and differential diagnosis of female urethral diverticulum(UD) and vaginal wall cysts.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical and ultrasound image features of 12 female patients with UD were collected as UD group and 30 patients with vaginal wall cysts confirmed by surgical pathology and clinical follow-up were collected as vaginal wall cysts group in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2017 to May 2021. Ultrasound image characteristics, and the main points of the differential diagnosis of the two were analyzed and summarized.Results:There were no significant differences in the age of the patients and the maximum diameter of the lesions between UD group and vaginal wall cysts group(all P>0.05). Eight cases (66.7%) of female patients with UD had urinary system symptoms, 5 cases (16.7%) of vaginal wall cysts had urinary system symptoms, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); In 10 cases (83.3%) the UD lesions were located in the upper middle and upper pelvic floor, and vaginal wall cyst lesions in 23 cases (76.7%) were located in the lower middle and lower pelvic floor, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). In terms of ultrasound image characteristics, UD lesions were often irregular in shape, surrounding the urethra, with unclear borders, cyst wall thickness >0.1 cm, internal wall not smooth along with calcification, internal visible separation, partly visible to the urethra, and peripheral blood flow signals were abundant. Vaginal wall cysts were mostly round-shaped, not surrounding the urethra, clear borders, thin and smooth walls, less internal partitions, not communication with the urethra, and the peripheral blood flow signals were not abundant. The differences between the two group were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Whether the sound transmission inside the lesion was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Combined with urinary system symptoms, lesion location, ultrasound characteristics (morphology, whether surrounding the urethra, boundary, cyst wall thickness, inner wall calcification, internal separation, whether it is connected to the urethra, blood flow distribution) can be used to distinguish between UD and vaginal wall cysts, whether the sound transmission inside the lesion cannot be used as the basis for the differential diagnosis of the two.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the method of intravascular angiography in vivo, analyze the clinical significance, and supply the basis of diagnosis and treatment of related orthopaedic diseases.Methods:The development was realized by improving the developer to increase the local concentration. Based on the study of Lijianmin-Chengkun Complexes and using the theory of magnetic microspheres, Fe 3O 4 magnetic microspheres with amino (negatively charged) shell are used to adsorb the aggregated ionic developer meglumine diatrizoate (positively charged diatrizoate). That is, by improving the method of developer, the magnetic microspheres can carry the developer to make new nanoparticles magnetic imaging composite particles. Under the action of external magnetic field, the magnetic imaging composite particles brought by blood circulation continue to stay and gather in the blood vessels in the magnetic field area, and the developer carried by the magnetic microspheres in the blood vessels in the magnetic field area is concentrated to reach the imaging concentration, so as to realize in vivo intravascular vascular imaging. By adjusting the ratio of the two reagents, the charge can be neutralized and condensed into small groups to improve the development efficiency. Thus, the electron microscope experiment, CT in vivo experiment, rabbit imaging experiment, experimental rabbit tissue picture confirmation, CT in vivo human body (the author is a volunteer) imaging experiment were carried out step by step. Results:Electron microscope experiment: meglumine diatrizoate, scanning electron microscope, the particle diameter is about 20 nm. Scanning electron microscope showed that the diameter of the magnetic microspheres was about 100 nm and the distribution was uniform. After the two reagents are mixed in a certain proportion, the neutralizing charge condenses into small groups, but it still has magnetohydrodynamic properties and strong paramagnetism. In vivo rabbit imaging experiment: the ideal intraosseous vascular imaging of the proximal tibia was captured. The tissue pictures of experimental rabbits confirmed that the distribution of Fe 3O 4 was obviously visible in the blood vessels in the proximal tibia on the side with magnetic field, but not on the side without magnetic field. In vivo human imaging experiment: the ideal intraosseous vascular imaging of the proximal fibula was captured. Conclusion:Through the preparation of new reagent of magnetic imaging composite particles (magnetic microspheres + meglumine diatrizoate), the concentration of in vivo bone developer can be achieved under the action of external magnetic field, and the in vivo external diameter ≥ 0.5mm can be achieved under CT thin-layer scanning.

ABSTRACT

@#To establish a quantitative LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous detection of components of Erlong Zuoci Pill in rat plasma: verbascoside, oxypaeoniflorin, echinacoside and benzoylpaeoniflorin, and to evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of Erlong Zuoci Pill in rats, plasma samples were purified by protein precipitation using methanol as a protein precipitant.Methanol was used as the organic phase and aqueous solution containing 0.1% formic acid was used as the water phase.The quantitative analysis method of verbascoside, oxypaeoniflorin, echinacoside and benzoylpaeoniflorin was established in negative ion mode, and the validation of bioanalytical method was carried out.Healthy SD rats were selected, and 20 mL/kg (equivalent to the original drug 10 g/kg dose) of Erlong Zuoci Pill extract was administered by intragastric administration.The plasma concentration of the target compounds at different time intervals after administration was determined using the established method, and the pharmacokinetic parameters was calculated by the Phoenix WinNonlin8.3 software using the non-compartmental model.The method validation results showed that verbascoside (r = 0.993 7) and oxypaeoniflorin (r = 0.994 6) had good linear relationship in the concentration range of 0.5-50 ng/mL, echinacoside (r = 0.993 6) and benzoylpaeoniflorin (r = 0.992 6) had good linear relationship in the concentration range of 1-100 ng/mL.The relative standard deviations of the inter- and intra- batch precision of the four compounds were all less than 15%, and the inter- batch and intra- accuracies were between 85% and 115%.Extraction recovery, matrix effect and stability met the relevant requirements.After a single gavage of Erlong Zuoci Pill extract in rats, all the four compounds were rapidly absorbed and eliminated.Oxypaeoniflorin, echinacoside, and benzoylpaeoniflorin showed two peaks in their drug concentration-time curves.Compared with the other three compounds, oxypaeoniflorin has the highest concentration in rat plasma with cmax1 of (24.40 ± 4.78) ng/mL and cmax2 of (22.50 ± 2.70) ng/mL. The results show that the validation results of this method are in line with the guiding principles of biological sample analysis methods, and it can be used to evaluate the pharmacokinetic characteristics of Erlong Zuoci Pill extract in rats.

ABSTRACT

Atherosclerosis is one of the most common diseases that threaten human health. How to effectively inhibit atherosclerosis, extend the survival time and improve the quality of life has become one of the most urgent issues to be solved clinically. Mongolian medicine, with a long history of managing human diseases, is an important part in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and has distinct ethnic characteristics. It has been gradually formed and developed by absorbing some theories of Tibetan medicine, Indian medicine and relevant knowledge of TCM. Mongolian medicine has many advantages, including but not limited to, low toxicity and diverse structure. However, the action mechanism of Mongolian medicine in preventing and managing atherosclerosis has yet to be fully clarified, which has been a major obstacle for further promotion and application of Mongolian medicine in clinical settings. In this review, the up-to-date research findings on Mongolian medicine were collected, analyzed and summarized, and the anti-atherogenic action mechanism of Mongolian medicine were reviewed from the aspects of anti-inflammatory, lipid-lowering, anti-oxidative stress, vascular endothelial cell protection, and inhibition of vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration.

ABSTRACT

Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), with clinical manifestation, diagnosis and pathological mechanism consistent with acute lung injury(ALI), belongs to a sub-category of ALI. Excessive deposition of fibrin in lung is one of the characteristic of ALI, and reversing fibrin formation is of great significance to intervene ALI. The decrease of fibrinolytic activity is one of the important causes of excessive deposition of fibrin in lung, and also the important pathological feature of TRALI. This article discusses the potential of modulating fibrinolytic activity to intervene TRALI from the perspective of regulating the effectiveness of fibrinolytic activity to intervene ALI.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To obtain the quality information of von Willebrand factor (vWF) in coagulation factor Ⅷ (FⅧ) concentrates in China. 【Methods】 FⅧ concentrates produced by 7 domestic blood product manufactures and 1 foreign manufacture were collected, then FⅧ and vWF contained in FⅧ concentrates were evaluated. 【Results】 The activity loss of vWF was more than 25% in 2 of the 7 domestic FⅧ concentrates. The ratio of vWF activity to FⅧ activity in FⅧ concentrates from different domestic manufactures was significantly different (P<0.05). The ratio in FⅧ concentrates prepared by C, D, F manufacturer was greater than 1, which was similar to that in willate@ approved abroad for the treatment of vWD. The ratio in FⅧ concentrates prepared by E manufacturer was greater than 0.7 and less than 1, and by A, B, G manufacturers was less than 0.5. In addition, the specific activities of FⅧ and vWF were significantly different among different FⅧ concentrates in China (P<0.05), and the specific activities of FⅧ and vWF were much lower than that of willate@. 【Conclusion】 The variation of vWF quality between domestic FⅧ concentrates and willate@ is mainly due to the different in vWF content. After the comprehensive consideration of various indicators, the FⅧ concentrates made by C and D manufacturers may be used in the treatment of vWD.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the efficacy and possible mechanisms of activation of Death receptor 3 (DR3) signaling pathway in the prevention of antibody-mediated transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) via DR3 agonistic (αDR3) antibody. 【Methods】 8-10-week-old male wild-type Balb/c mice (40) were randomly divided into Naïve group, isotype control group, TRALI model group, and intervention group. Mice without any treatment served as Naïve group. Isotype and TRALI model were established by intraperitoneally priming 8-10-week Balb/c mice with LPS 18 h prior to injection of an IgG2a isotype antibody and anti-MHC-Ⅰ antibody via tail vein, respectively. Intervention group: mice were intraperitoneally injected with a single dose of αDR3 antibody (1 mg/kg) on day 1; after 3 days, the mice were challenged with LPS 18 h prior to injection of an anti-MHC-I antibody. The lung tissues and spleens of mice in each group were collected at the mice died or 2 hours after TRALI modeling for the lung injury severity. Spleens were collected to measure the proportion of Treg by flow cytometry. Foxp3, iNOS, and CD206 immunohistochemical staining combining with optical density analysis of lung tissues were used to represent Treg, M1 macrophages and M2 macrophages, respectively. The concentration of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-10 cytokines in lung tissues was detected via Cytometric Beads Array. 【Results】 Compared with TRALI group, 1) the lung injury of mice were significantly alleviated in intervention group; 2) the proportion of Treg(%) in the spleens (9.295±1.349 vs 2.257±0.610, P<0.05), Foxp3 expression of Treg in the lungs (0.302 6±0.052 6 vs 0.230 2±0.016 3, P<0.05), and the concentration of Treg derived cytokines IL-10 in the lungs (29.52±8.885 vs 8.045±1.911, P<0.05) increased significantly in intervention group; 3) the iNOS expression of M1 macrophages (0.209 6±0.013 9 vs 0.279 6±0.045 2) and the concentration of M1 macrophage derived cytokines IL-6 (23.22±19.35 vs 301.1±157.7), IL-1β (46.76±25.34 vs 307.6±183.8), and TNF-α (45.99±14.16 vs 143.9±44.43) in the lungs was significantly reduced(P<0.05), while CD206 expression of M2 macrophages (0.291 2±0.032 1 vs 0.221 5±0.012 7) and the concentration of M2 macrophage derived IL-10 cytokines (29.52±8.885 vs 8.045±1.911) in the lungs increased significantly in intervention group(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Activation of DR3 signaling pathway by αDR3 antibody prevents antibody-mediated TRALI via expanding Treg, which regulates macrophage polarization by IL-10 derived from Treg.

ABSTRACT

Context: Better management strategies are needed to improve the survival of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA). Aims: This study was designed to examine the effects of different treatment methods on survival and prognostic factors in HCCA. Settings and Design: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 354 patients with HCCA treated at our institution from 2003 to 2013. Materials and Methods: Patients were divided into three groups according to the treatment: the radical resection group, the nonradical resection group, and the biliary drainage-only group. Statistical Analysis Used: The Kaplan–Meier method was used to compare survival rates between the groups, and the independent prognostic factors were assessed using the Cox proportional hazards model. Results: There were 110 patients in the radical resection group, 93 patients in the nonradical resection group, and 151 patients in the biliary drainage-only group, and they showed differing survival rates: 1-year survival rates of 70.7%, 49.5%, and 31.3%; 2-year survival rates of 62.9%, 24.7%, and 9.0%; 3-year survival rates of 34.7%, 4.0%, and 0%; and median survival of 21.7 months, 13.6 months, and 8.7 months, respectively. The radical resection group had the longest overall survival (P< 0.001). Treatment method, albumin (ALB), total bilirubin (TBIL), postoperative pathological T-stage, and distant metastasis were identified as independent prognostic indicators of survival. Conclusions: Radical resection significantly increases survival in patients with HCCA, and an increase in ALB and a decrease in TBIL improve the prognosis of patients with HCCA

ABSTRACT

Prostate cancer is the most common malignant tumor of male reproductive system, which seriously threatens men's health. It has been shown that the existence of zinc ions can inhibit the growth of prostate cancer cells. In addition, photothermal treatment of cancer is attracting more and more attention due to its high accuracy and efficiency. In this study, zinc ions loaded black phosphorus nanosheets (BP-Zn) were prepared, and the photothermal therapy efficiency of the system on human prostate cancer cells (PC-3) was evaluated. The inhibition effect of zinc ions on PC-3 cells was studied. It was demonstrated that the toxicity of zinc ions on PC-3 cells was concentration- and time-dependent. Moreover, it can be seen from in vitro photothermal therapy that the treatment effect of black phosphorus assisted by zinc ions is superior to that of black phosphorus alone. This study further studied the in vivo therapeutic effect of BP-Zn. The results once again confirmed that the combinational photothermal treatment of zinc ions and BP had excellent anti-tumor effect. The animal procedures were approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Tsinghua Shenzhen International Graduate School.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To discuss the value of ultrasound in the diagnosis of pelvic lipomatosis and analyze the causes of misdiagnosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 68 cases of pelvic lipomatosis confirmed by operation or imaging in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2000 to December 2018 was made to summarize the characteristics of ultrasonic manifestations.Results:Ultrasonographic findings were as follows: 6 cases (8.8%) had increased fat-like hyperecho in pelvic cavity; 60 cases (88.2%) had abnormal bladder; 42 cases (61.7%) had pyelectasis and 24 cases (35.3%) had ureterectasis. Of the 68 cases, 6 cases (8.8%) were correctly diagnosed; 54 cases (79.4%) were missed; 8 cases (11.8%) were misdiagnosed, including 7 cases (10.3%) of bladder tumor and 1 case (1.5%) of retroperitoneal giant mass.Conclusions:Pelvic lipomatosis has characteristic sonographic features.When urinary tract obstruction and bladder wall thickening are observed, pelvic lipomatosis should be considered. Bladder shape and existence of increasing fat-like hyperecho in the pelvis should be further scanned to reduce the misdiagnosis rate of pelvic lipomatosis.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the clinical characteristics and identify gene mutations of 2 probands with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (RSTS).@*METHODS@#Clinical characteristics of 2 probands with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome were summarized. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples from the patients and their parents. Genomic DNA was subjected to whole exome next generation sequencing. Suspected variants were confirmed by Sanger sequencing.@*RESULTS@#The two patients were characterized by typical facial features, broad thumbs and big toes, intellectual disability, and postnatal growth retardation. Two variants of the CREBBP gene, namely c.3779+1G>A and c.5052_c.5053insT, were respectively identified in the 2 patients. Among these, c.3779+1G>A was a previously known pathological mutation, while c.5052_c.5053insT was unreported previously. Both variants were predicted to be pathological.@*CONCLUSION@#Two cases of Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome were diagnosed, which facilitated the diagnosis and genetic counselling.

ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the application of ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS) method to rapidly determine and analyze the chemical constituents of methanol extract of Urtica hyperborea. We employed UPLC YMC-Triart C18(2. 1 mm×100 mm,1. 9 μm) column to UPLC analysis with acetonitrile-water(containing 0. 4% formic acid) in gradient as mobile phase. The flow rate was 0. 3 m L·min-1 gradient elution and column temperature was 30℃; the injection volume was 4 μL. ESI ion source was used to ensure the data collected in anegative ion mode. The chemical components of U. hyperborea were identified through retention time,exact relative molecular mass,cleavage fragments of MS/MS and reported data.The results indicated that a total of 31 compounds were identified,including 8 flavonoids,14 phenolic compounds,8 phenylpropanoids(4 coumarins and 4 lignans),and 1 steroidal compound,13 of which were confirmed by comparison. The UPLC-ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS method could rapid identify the chemical components of U. hyperborea. The above compounds were discovered in U. hyperborea for the first time,which could provide theoretical foundation for further research on the basis of the pharmacodynamics of U. hyperborea.

ABSTRACT

In this study,mouse models of benign prostatic hyperplasia induced by subcutaneous injection of testosterone propionate was used to investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Urtica hyperborean( UW) extracts on prostate hyperplasia in mice. The effects of UW extracts on prostate index,serum epidermal growth factor( EGF) and dihydrotestosterone( DHT) in model mice were observed,and the EGF and anti-apoptotic factor( Bcl-2) mRNA expression levels were detected as well as pathological changes in prostate tissue. The results showed that the ethyl acetate extraction and alcohol soluble fraction of the UW could significantly reduce the prostate index,reduce the serum DHT and EGF levels( P<0. 01),and significantly decrease the EGF and Bcl-2 mRNA expression( P<0. 01),significantly improved the morphological structure of prostate tissue. The above results confirmed that ethyl acetate extract and alcohol-soluble parts of UW have a good preventive effect on mice prostatic hyperplasia model,and its mechanism may be to reduce androgen levels by regulating polypeptide growth factors and/or inhibiting cell hyperproliferation and promoting apoptosis. This study laid the foundation for the further research on UW.
