RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A(TSA) on the lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced injury and apoptosis of human microvascular endothelial cell(HMEC).Methods:HMECs were used as research cells to establish LPS-induced septic cell model, which were divided into three groups according to different treatments: control group (150 μL of phosphate buffer), LPS group (150 μL of 5 μg/mL LPS), LPS+ TSA group (150 μL of 5 μg/mL LPS and 500 μg/L TSA). After cells of each group were cultured for 24 h and 48 h, the concentration of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)in the culture supernatant was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and the apoptosis rate of HMECs was detected by Annexin V-FTTC/PI staining, then comparison between different groups were made.Results:Compared with the control group, LDH concentration in LPS group increased significantly at 24 h[(4.67±1.27) ng/L vs. (11.57±0.83) ng/L ] and 48 h[(7.93±0.80) ng/L vs. (12.72±0.89) ng/L ]; Compared with LPS group, LDH concentration in LPS + TSA group decreased significantly at 24 h[(6.01±0.29) ng/L ] and 48 h[(5.96±0.27) ng/L ], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates of HMEC cells in LPS group were significantly higher at 24 h[(0.92±0.89)% vs. (1.66±0.09)% ] and 48 h[(1.09±0.14)% vs. (5.01±0.16)%]; Compared with LPS group, the apoptosis rate of HMEC cells in LPS + TSA group significantly decreased at 24 h[(1.36±0.01)% ] and 48 h[(4.19±0.23)% ], the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:TSA has the protective effect of reducing cell injury and apoptosis in sepsis.
RESUMEN
Oligoasthenospermia is the primary cause of infertility. However, there are still enormous challenges in the screening of critical candidates and targets of oligoasthenospermia owing to its complex mechanism. In this study, stem cell factor (SCF), c-kit, and transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) biosensors were successfully established and applied to studying apoptosis and autophagy mechanisms. Interestingly, the detection limit reached 2.787 × 10-15 g/L, and the quantitative limit reached 1.0 × 10-13 g/L. Furthermore, biosensors were used to investigate the interplay between autophagy and apoptosis. Schisandrin A is an excellent candidate to form a system with c-kit similar to SCF/c-kit with a detection constant (KD) of 5.701 × 10-11 mol/L, whereas it had no affinity for SCF. In addition, it also inhibited autophagy in oligoasthenospermia through antagonizing TRPV1 with a KD of up to 4.181 × 10-10 mol/L. In addition, in vivo and in vitro experiments were highly consistent with the biosensor. In summary, high-potency schisandrin A and two potential targets were identified, through which schisandrin A could reverse the apoptosis caused by excessive autophagy during oligoasthenospermia. Our study provides promising insights into the discovery of effective compounds and potential targets via a well-established in vitro-in vivo strategy.
RESUMEN
[Objective]To introduce the clinical experience of Pro.HUO Jiege in treating breast cancer. [Methods]Summarize Pro.HUO Jiege 's medication basis and rules through collating the prescription of HUO's clinical experiences, combining with research on the literarure of TCM. Discuss the unique views and characteristics of TCM in reducing adverse reactions caused by western medicine treatment, and expound the prevention and treatment of recurrence and metastasis through typical cases.[Results]Pro.HUO Jiege thinks that the etiology and pathogenesis relate to insufficient natural endowment, seven emotions and cancerous toxin. Pro.HUO is expert in treating breast cancer through regulation of Qi, giving consideration to both heart and kidney.In terms of using medication,he is experienced in treating lymph edema after breast cancer operation, toxic reaction induced by chemoradiotherapy,endocrine treatment-related menopausal syndrome and distant metastasis of breast cancer. He usually invigorates Qi and strengthens the spleen, nourishes yin and blood and uses a small amount of attacking poison to help ward off evil spirit. And the case in this article has obtained good treatment results.[Conclusion] Pro.HUO Jiege is good at using traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of breast cancer,which makes fairly good clinical effect,and his experience is worth learning and promotion.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo assess the effects and safety of glycoprotein Ⅱ b/Ⅲ a receptor inhibitors tirofiban( intracoronary administration and venous maintenance) combined with DIVERTM CE thrombus-aspiration catheter in the percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)-treated patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (ST-EMI).Methods Sixty patients with ST-EMI who underwent PCI were randomized into two groups.Thirty-two patients in group A were treated with tirofiban,twenty-eight patients in group B were treated with tirofiban and thrombus-aspiration catheter.Between two groups,the thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) risk score,hemorrhagic complications,and incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were compared.ResultsThe TIMI flow was improved in both groups,and it was better in group B than group A ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The incidence of MACE in group B was lower than group A (25.0％ vs 3.6％,P ＜0.05). No fatal hemorrhagic complications were found in both groups.ConclusionsApplication of tirofiban and DIVERTM CE thrombus-aspiration catheter is safe and effective in ST-EMI patients,which can greatly improve myocardial reperfusion and reduce incidence of MACE.
