ABSTRACT

Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease characterized by seizures, and is one of the most common nervous system diseases in clinic practice with the recurrent, transient, and refractory characteristics. Clinically, western medicine therapy is mainly adopted in the treatment of epilepsy, but it is not conducive to long-term use for patients on account of severe side effects, which can result in abnormalities in the digestive system, central nervous system, hematopoietic system, urinary system, and liver function to varying degrees. Syndrome differentiation is usually used for the treatment of epilepsy by traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which can avoid the side effects of western medicine treatment on the basis of improving patients' syndromes. The literature on TCM in the treatment of epilepsy in China and abroad indicates that the syndrome differentiation in TCM is often based on phlegm, blood stasis, wind, and deficiency, and the treatment methods include acupuncture, acupoint catgut embedding, moxibustion, Chinese medicine monomer, drug pair, and compound decoction. The various treatments of TCM play an important role in the comprehensive treatment of epilepsy through multiple channels and links, such as reducing the degree and number of seizures. This paper comprehensively summarized the clinical experience of TCM in the treatment of epilepsy, systematically expounded various treatment methods and ideas of TCM in the treatment of epilepsy, and deeply discussed the mechanism of TCM in the treatment of epilepsy, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical formulation of a reasonable individualized treatment plan for epilepsy and diversified ideas for the more effective treatment of epilepsy by TCM.

ABSTRACT

Traditional Chinese medicine has the characteristics of multiple components, pathways, and targets in the treatment of fracture healing, and has good therapeutic advantages and potential for fractures with complex pathological mechanisms. Based on this, the author summarized the mechanism of promoting fracture healing by the monomer components and compound formulas of traditional Chinese medicine and found that visfatin A, puerarin, and others can activate the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway; Xugudan, Guben zenggu formula and others can activate bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling pathway; baicalin, Achyranthes bidentata polysaccharides and others can activate Wnt/β -catenin signaling pathway; apigenin, notoginsenoside and others can activate receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB)/receptor activator of NF-κB ligand/osteoprotegerin (RANK/RANKL/OPG) signaling pathway; Compound huoxue jiegu capsule, Jiangu granule and others can inhibit phosphoinositide 3-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway; icariin can activate Notch signaling pathway; Taohong siwu decoction, crocin and others can activate Hippo signaling pathway; jujuboside A and osthole can inhibit NF-κB signaling pathway, and thus promote fracture healing.

ABSTRACT

Light adaptation enables the vertebrate visual system to operate over a wide range of ambient illumination. Regulation of phototransduction in photoreceptors is considered a major mechanism underlying light adaptation. However, various types of neurons and glial cells exist in the retina, and whether and how all retinal cells interact to adapt to light/dark conditions at the cellular and molecular levels requires systematic investigation. Therefore, we utilized single-cell RNA sequencing to dissect retinal cell-type-specific transcriptomes during light/dark adaptation in mice. The results demonstrated that, in addition to photoreceptors, other retinal cell types also showed dynamic molecular changes and specifically enriched signaling pathways under light/dark adaptation. Importantly, Müller glial cells (MGs) were identified as hub cells for intercellular interactions, displaying complex cell‒cell communication with other retinal cells. Furthermore, light increased the transcription of the deiodinase Dio2 in MGs, which converted thyroxine (T4) to active triiodothyronine (T3). Subsequently, light increased T3 levels and regulated mitochondrial respiration in retinal cells in response to light conditions. As cones specifically express the thyroid hormone receptor Thrb, they responded to the increase in T3 by adjusting light responsiveness. Loss of the expression of Dio2 specifically in MGs decreased the light responsive ability of cones. These results suggest that retinal cells display global transcriptional changes under light/dark adaptation and that MGs coordinate intercellular communication during light/dark adaptation via thyroid hormone signaling.

ABSTRACT

Worldwide, gastric cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths and the fifth most common malignant tumor. Gastric cancer is believed to be caused by a variety of factors, such as genetics, epigenetics, and environmental influences. Among the pathogenic factors, inflammation has been considered as one of the main risk factors for gastric cancer. There are currently limited ways to prevent gastric cancer. Although the combined application of aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can reduce the risk, it has great side effects and can easily cause gastric perforation or gastric bleeding. Therefore, an alternative plan is urgently needed. Curcumin is the yellow pigment in the rhizome of the plant turmeric. Current studies have found that curcumin has a protective effect on gastric mucosal damage caused by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, gastric mucosal damage in rats, and gastric mucosal damage caused by stress bleeding and Helicobacter pylori infection. Curcumin shows significant anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer activities by regulating DNA methylation, histone modification, nuclear factor erythrocyte 2 related factor 2 and other related signal pathways. In this article, the latest evidence of curcumin for epigenetic changes in gastric cancer and its potential contribution to gastric cancer were discussed.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the efficacy of gefitinib in the first-line and the second-line treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with different mutations of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Methods The clinical data of 70 patients with advanced NSCLC harboring different EGFR mutations and taking gefitinib as the first-line or the second-line treatment in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January 2013 to December 2014 was analyzed retrospectively. According to the treatment method, the patients were divided into the first-line treatment group (36 cases) and the second-line treatment group (34 cases); according to the type of gene mutations, the patients were divided into exon 19 deletion group (EGFR gene exon 19 LREA deletion, 46 cases) and exon 21 mutation group (exon 21 L858R mutation, 24 cases). Progression-free survival (PFS), effective rate (ORR), and disease control rate (DCR) were observed in each group. Results Of the 70 evaluable patients, the median PFS time in patients with exon 19 LREA deletion was 8.88 months (95% CI 7.72-10.04), and the median PFS time in patients with exon 21 L858R mutation was 8.67 months (95% CI 7.17-10.17), the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P = 0.959). The ORR in patients with exon 19 LREA deletion was 69.6% (32/46), and the ORR inpatients with exon 21 L858R mutation was 54.2% (13/24), the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2= 1.629, P = 0.202). The DCR in patients with exon 19 LREA deletion was 84.8% (39/46), and the DCR in patients with exon 21 L858R mutation was 91.7% (22/24), the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2= 0.194, P = 0.659). The median PFS time in patients with the first-line treatment was 9.22 months (95% CI 7.92-10.52), and the median PFS time in patients with the second-line treatment was 8.37 months (95% CI 7.08-9.65), the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.507). The ORR in patients with the first-line treatment was 63.9% (23/36), and the ORR in patients with the second-line treatment was 58.8% (20/34), the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2 = 1.460, P = 0.227). The DCR in patients with the first-line treatment was 88.9% (32/36), and the DCR in patients with the second-line treatment was 88.2% (30/34), the difference was not statistical significant (χ 2 = 0.060, P = 0.940).

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the X ray imaging of the common complications after total hip replacement (THR), in order to improve the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the complications of THR. Methods Forty six cases were revised because of the complications of THR. The value of X ray in the diagnosis of complications was assessed by observing the radiography and comparing with surgical results. Results In these cases, after revision, 34 cases had aseptic loosening of femoral component, 13 cases had aseptic loosening of acetabular component, presenting on radiographs as the lucent zone alone the component, which was ≥2 mm in width and had the same contour as the component. 4 cases had septic loosening of femoral and (or) acetabular component, presenting on radiographs as the lucent zone alone the component, and bone destruction and sinus were also observed. The lucent zone was also ≥3 mm, but had the different contour of the component. Both kinds of loosening may accompany with migration of the component or not. 6 cases had dislocation of femoral head, presenting on radiographs as the head lying out of acetabulum in 2 cases, central migrating of the head in 2 cases, and asymmetrical position of the head in acetabulum in 2 cases. Conclusion The lucent zone and component migration had the important diagnostic value of loosening, the contour of lucent zone and sinus could help to make the differential diagnosis of aseptic and septic loosening. Asymmetrical position of the head in acetabulum and the head lying out of acetabulum were the signs of dislocation.

ABSTRACT

Neutrophils play important role in anti - tumor response of tumor-bearing host as a kind of important effector cells. In order to identify the anti-tumor mechanisms of G-CSF gene therapy, we investigated the number and functions of the peripheral neutrophils in the C-26 colon adenocarcinoma-bearing mice receiving G - CSF gene therapy and high - dose chemotherapy. After G - CSF gene therapy, the number of neutrophils in peripheral blood was increased markedly in C-26 mice receiving high - dose 5 - Fu as compared with control groups including in vivo administration of rhG - CSF. The more potent cytotoxicity to C - 26 cells could be detected. The phagocytic activity, the secretion of IL-1, TNF, NO of the neutrophils were significantly enhanced. These data showed that G - CSF gene therapy can increase the number of neutrophils, activate the functions more effectively than in vivo administration of rhG - CSF.

ABSTRACT

Granulocyte colony - stimulating factor (G - CSF) is a hematopoietic growth factor that is responsible for the differentiation and proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells to mature granulocyte, and can increase the number of peripheral neutrophils. It has been demonstrated that it could inhibit the metastasis of the murine tumors in spontaneous and experimental metastasis models by in vivo administration of recombinant human G - CSF. In order to examine the antitumor effect of G - CSF gene therapy on mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy, C - 26 colon adenocarcinoma - bearing mice which were prepared by S. c. injection of 1?105C-26 cells were i. p. injected with rhG-CSF (2?g/day?14day) or implanted with 1?107 collagen encapsulated NIH3T3-G-CSF cells which secrete high level of G - CSF after gene transfection. In our experiment, rhG-CSF could inhibit the tumor growth and extend the survival time of early stage C-26 bearing mice. However, G - CSF gene therapy could inhibit the tumor growth and prolong the survival both in early or middle stage C-26 mice. The results showed that both rhG - CSF and G - CSF gene therapy have exact antitumor effect and G - CSF gene therapy show more effective than rhG - CSF in vivo. Then we investigated the therapeutic effects of G - CSF gene therapy on C-26-bearing mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy (5-Fu 150mg/mice i. p.) . More effective results could be observed in C-26 - bearing mice receiving high dose chemotherapy after G - CSF gene therapy. The results also suggested that G-CSF gene therapy can inhibit the tumor growth more effectively both in C-26-bearing mice or C-26-bearing mice receiving high - dose chemotherapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the protective effects of various extracts from Flos Daturae (FD), including active fraction (AF-FD), withanolides constituents (WC-FD), and flavonoids constituents (FC-FD) on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells against cytotoxicity induced by DMSO. Methods The survival rate of CHO cells was examined by MTT assay and LDH leakage assays. Results Using MTT assay, coincubation of CHO cells with 3% DMSO for 24 h resulted in a significant reduction of survival rate of CHO cells. AF-FD was tested in a range of 10—80 ?g/mL to improve the survival rate of CHO cells in a dose-dependent manner. FC-FD (2.5—20 ?g/mL), but not WC-FD (30—120 ?g/mL), could significantly relieve the injury induced by 3% DMSO in CHO cells. In the measurement of LDH leakage, coincubation of CHO cells with 4.5% DMSO for 24 h obviously increased LDH release. However, all the compounds tested, including AF-FD (10—80 ?g/mL), WC-FD (30—120 ?g/mL), and FC-FD (2.5—20 ?g/mL) had no effect on LDH leakage induced by 4.5% DMSO. Conclusion The findings suggest that the FC-FD may protect CHO cells from DMSO cytotoxicity assessed by MTT assay, which may be associated with improving mitochondrial function, but not protecting the membrane injury of CHO cells.
