RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the regulating effects of serum containing total anthraquinone in rheum on the expression of AQP4 in cultured LoVo cells in vitro.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Sixteen SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups respectively treated with 0, 1.4, 2.5, 4.5 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) of total anthraquinone in rheum by intragastric administration. After 7 days of treatment, the rats were anesthetized and celiotomized to prepare the serum containing total anthraquinone in rheum. LoVo cells cultured in vitro were treated with different concentrations of total anthraquinone in rheum for 24 h. The expression levels of protein and mRNA of AQP4 IN LoVo cells were decided by Western blot and semiquantive RT-PCR.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Western blot and semiquantive RT-PCR showed that serum containing total anthraquinone in rheum prepared from rats treated with 4.5 g x kg(-1) x d(-1) of total anthraquinone in rheum could inhibit the expression of mRNA and protein levels of AQP 4 in LoVo cells (P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Serum containing total anthraquinone in rheum can inhibit both the transcription and translation of AQP4 gene, indicating that the regulation mechanism of rhubarb on the expression of AQP4 can be related to the cathartic effect of rhubarb.</p>

To search the effective health education to the hypertension patients and to decrease complication such as cerebrovascular ailment,106 hypertension patients were divided into two groups randomly:the interference (52) and the control (54).The interference group is treated with health education and health promotion constantly (Base line:1996,end line 1999).The results of 2 times investigations at the base line and end line respectively to the groups show that:the KAB in both groups were improved,and the interference improved notably,especially in behavior.The percentage of the patients who care about danger factors and hygeine knowledge rise from 68% (base line) to 78.6% and the percentage of the patients who did exercise constantly rise from 58.9% to 71.4%.It is also showed that,in periodic measurement of blood pressure and regular administration of medicine,the interference group behaved better than the contrast (P<0.01).We can conclude that giving face to face health education and health promotion to hypertension patients is a effective way to prevent and control hypertension complications
