Effects of suxiao jiuxin pill on patients with acute coronary syndrome undergoing early percutaneous coronary intervention / 中国中西医结合杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the intervention effects of Suxiao Jiuxin Pill (SJP) on patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) undergoing early percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Sixty ACS patients were randomly assigned to the treatment group (treated by SJP and Western medicine) and the control group (treated by Western medicine alone), 30 in each group. Coronary arteriography and early PCI were performed in all patients. The effects of SJP on the blood flow rate, the collateral artery patency, and perioperative myocardial infarction incidence were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The coronary blood flow rate was better in the treatment group than in the control group either pre- or post-PCI. [pre-PCI thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) level III: 16/30 vs 11/30, P < 0.01; post-PCI TIMI level III: 14/14 vs 13/19, P < 0.05)]. In patients with ITMI level 0 - I , more patients in the treatment group had collateral artery protective function than those in the control group (5/6 vs 3/13, P < 0.05). The incidence of perioperative myocardial infarction was obviously lower in the treatment group than in the control group (8/30 vs 15/30, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>SJP could improve the pre- and post-PCI coronary artery flow rate, increase the collateral artery patency, and reduce the incidence of perioperative myocardial infarction of ACS patients.</p>

Studies on purification and characterization of a protease from a marine bacterium, Pseudomons sp. 7~11 / 中国海洋药物

A protease from the culture supernatant of marine bacteria Pseudomonas sp. 7~11 was discovered. One component of the protease was purified to homogeneity by ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis, ion exchange chromatography. The specific activity of the enzyme was raised from 19.46U?mg -1 to 13953115U?mg -1 ,which was 717.02 times that of the culture supernatant with a yield of 1.24%.The molecular mass of purified enzyme was estimated to be 3000Da about by SDS PAGE. The optimum temperature for the activity was observed to be 45℃ using casein as substrate.The optimum pH for activity the enzyme was 8.0 and it was stable between pH6～7 and below 50℃.The activity of the enzyme was inhibited by EDTA and IAA strongly. But was not inhibited by PMSF. the enzyme was inhibited Mn 2+ , Hg 2+ , Fe 2+ , Zn 2+ , Cu 2+ ,Pb 2+ and SDS. The inactivity of the enzyme with EDTA could be recovered partially by Mg 2+ .while Ca 2+ , Mg 2+ and (NH 4) 2SO 4 was activator for the activity of the enzyme. The activity of the enzyme was fairly stable in the presence of ethanol and urea, and was resistant to Tween 20.
