RESUMO
Objective To investigate the apoptosis of cell line HL-60 induced by matrine and its possible mechanism. Methods CCK-8 assay was used to observe the proliferation inhibitation of HL-60 cells treated with matrine. FCM was applied to detect apoptotic cells and mitoehondrial transmembrane potential.Spectrophotometry was used to detect the activity of Caspase-9. Results Matrine (0.25-2.0 mg/ml) could significantly inhibit proliferation of HL-60 cells (F=67.83, P ＜0.05). Ater 48 hours, the apoptosis rate increased obviously in dose dependence (t = 4.685, 6.300. 9.641, 6.786, P ＜0.05). Within 48 hours, the mitochondrial transmembrance potential of HL-60 cells treated with matrine (1.0 mg/ml) gradually decreased (F = 54.83, P ＜0.05), and the activation of Caspase-9 gradually decreased in time dependence (F = 72.31,P ＜0.05). Conclusion Matrine can induce apoptosis of HL-60 cells by reducing mitochondrial transmembrance potential and activating Caspase-9.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the therapeutic effects and side effects of FLAG regimen(fludarabine, Ara-C, and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor( C-CSF) for refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia( AML). Methods Twenty-six AML were treated with fludarabine plus intermediate-dose Ara-C and G-CSF,of whom 15 cases belonged to refractory and 11 cases belonged to relapsed. Results After two courses of treatment, 14 cases were completely relieved (53. 8% ) and 5 cases were partially relieved (19.2% ). The overall effective rates was 73.1%. The main side effects were severe myelosuppression and non-hematological toxicity was mild. Conclusion FLAG regimen was very effective for refractory or relapsed acute myeloid leukemia and was well tolerated. The treatment-related mortality rate was low,so it provided a treatment choice for these patients.
RESUMO
AIM: To establish the method of determining cinobufagin and resibufogenin in Xinkening Capsules(Venenum Bufonis,etc.). METHODS: HPLC was applied to determining cinobufagin and resibufogenin.The determination was carried out using an ODS column with a solvent system: methanol-water(50∶40).The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min,detection wavelength was at 296 nm. RESULTS: The linear ranges of cinobufagin and resibufogenin were 3.5 ?g-0.28 ?g and 3.75 ?g-0.30 ?g,respectively.The average recoveries of cinobufagin and resibufogenin were 99.86%(RSD=1.8%,n=5),and 99.84%(RSD=1.2%,n=5),respectively. CONCLUSION: This method is simple,accurate with strong specificity and can be used to control the quality of Xinkening Capsules.
