RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Pingwei Capsules (平胃胶囊) for chronic atrophic gastritis from rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma / mitogen-activated protein kinase /extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (Raf/MEK/ERK) pathway that influences the activation of fibrosarcoma protein/mitogen. MethodsFifteen SD rats were randomly divided into 5 rats in the blank group and 10 rats in Pingwei Capsules group. The rats in the blank group were given 1 ml/100 g of saline by gavage, and the rats in Pingwei Capsules group were given 0.63 g/(kg·d) of Pingwei Capsule suspension by gavage, and serum was collected for 3 consecutive days. N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was used to induce human gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1 to establish a precancerous lesion cell model. The successful cells were divided into control group (10% fetal bovine serum), blank serum group (10% fetal bovine serum plus 10% blank serum), and medication-containing serum group (serum with medication of Pingwei Capsule), and the volume fraction and time of intervention of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum were screened by CCK-8 assay. Human gastric mucosal epithelial cells GES-1 were divided into normal group, model group, blank serum group, medication-containing serum group, U0126 group, and combined group, with 6 replicate wells in each group. After successful modelling of the cells in all groups except the blank group, an equal volume of fetal bovine serum was added to the normal and model groups, an equal volume of blank serum was added to the blank serum group, a screening volume fraction of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum was added to Pingwei Capsule group, a 10 μmol/L mitogen-activated extracellular signal regulated kinase 1 (MEK1) inhibitor U0126 was administered in the U0126 group, an equal dose of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum plus 10 μmol/L of U0126 was administered to the combined group. After the selected incubation time, the level of interleukin 6 (IL-6) was detected in the cells by ELISA, the expression of IL-6 and MEK1 was detected by immunofluorescence, and the expression of IL-6, Raf, MEK1, and ERK mRNA was detected by RT-qPCR, and the expression of IL-6, Raf, MEK1, and ERK mRNA in the cells was detected by Western blot. ResultsThe 5.35% volume fraction, 48 h intervention of Pingwei Capsule-containing serum was selected for subsequent experiments. Compared with the normal group, the IL-6 content in cell supernatants and the expression of IL-6, Raf, MEK1, ERK mRNA and ERK1/2 proteins in cells increased in the model group and blank serum group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, all of the above indexes were improved in medication-containing serum group, U0126 group, and combined group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with medication-containing serum group, the expression of IL-6, MEK1 expression, the expression of IL-6, Raf, MEK1 and ERK mRNA, and the expression of IL-6, Raf, MEK1 and ERK1/2 proteins reduced in the cells of combined group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the U0126 group, IL-6 expression reduced and IL-6, MEK1 and ERK1/2 protein expression reduced in cells of combined group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). ConclusionThe Pingwei Capsule-containing serum may play a role in the treatment of chronic atrophic gastritis by improving the inflammation-cancer transformation of GES-1 cells through inhibiting the Raf/MEK/ERK pathway.
RESUMEN
Reflux esophagitis (liver-stomach disharmony, Spittoon-Qi interties, Qi and blood stasis syndrome, turbid poison intrinsic) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (liver depression, spleen deficiency, phlegm and blood stasis syndrome, hot and humid embodiment, phlegmy wet resistance) and functional dyspepsia (liver depression syndrome, liver stomach with spleen deficient, spleen deficiency cold syndrome, in a word, fever) is a common disease and frequently encountered disease of digestive system. The course of disease is prolonged and the prevalence is high. The successful establishment of animal model combining disease and syndrome is the premise of exploring the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) effect and the foundation of the development of new preparations. At the same time, mastering the complex relationship network among disease, syndrome and prescription is the prerequisite of effective treatment. When the same syndrome occurs between different diseases, the concept of "treating different diseases with the same treatment" in TCM suggests that methods can be cross-referenced for the shortage of some syndrome models. TCM intervention of digestive diseases has the characteristics of multi-path, multi-target, multi-dimension and multi-level. Therefore, this article through the literature review, summarizes the reflux esophagitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and functional dyspepsia is a common disease such as the combined operation method of the model and the intervention mechanism of TCM, so as to diseases of the digestive system of different syndrome types provides the theory basis for the objective of research, and the basic research of TCM prescription and achievements provide methodological guidance.
