Correlation between ApoE gene polymorphism and cardio-cerebrovascular diseases / 实用医学杂志

Objective To investigate the correlation between apolipoprotein E gene polymorphism and car-dio-cerebrovascular diseases. Methods Gene chip method was used to determine ApoE genotypes in 1427 pa-tients with cardiovascular disease and 450 health controls. Levels of serum lipid were compared. Results The highest genotype frequency of ApoE was ε3/3 in the patient group and control group. The allele frequency of ApoE from high to low wasε3,ε2 andε4. The genotype ofε3/3 in patient group was significantly lower than that in con-trol group(χ2 = 12.562,P 0.05). The level of TCH and LDL-c significantly decreased in patients with E2 genotype,and increased in patients with genotype E4(P 0.05). Positive relationship was found between ApoE geno-type and phenotype of ApoE and LDL-c. Conclusions ApoE gene polymorphism plays an important role in the oc-currence and development of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases.

Studies on Chemical Constituents and Antitumor Activity of Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata / 广州中医药大学学报

【Objective】The chemical constituents of Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata.were studied to screen the constituents with antitumor activity.【Methods】Chromatography was used for the isolation and purification of chemical constituents of Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata..And their structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic evidences and physiochemical properties.Meanwhile,the in-vitro antitumor activities of two kinds of triterpenoids and one kind of sitosterol were investigated.【Results】Four compounds were isolated from Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata.and their structures were identified as genkwanin(1),?-amyrin acetate(2),erythrodiol(3) and ?-sitosterol(4).Compounds 2 and 3 had an inhibitory effect on mice sarcoma 180(S180),Ehrlich ascites carcinoma(EAC) and ascties hepatoma(HeAP),and compound 4 had an inhibitory effect on mice S180 and EAC,their half-inhibitory concentrations being less than 400??g/mL.【Conclusion】Compounds 1～4 are isolated from Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata.for the first time,and compound 1 is isolated from Loranthaceae for the first time.Triterpenoids and steroids from Viscum liquidambaricolum Hayata.exert certain antitumor activity.

Study on pharmacodynamics and toxicology of Gejie Dingchuan Capsule / 中草药

Object To inquire into the effect on pharmacology of Gejie Dingchuan Capsule (GJDCC). Methods The observation of relieving cough and asthma, removing phlegm, immunity, antibiosis and antiinflammation, antianaphylaxis, and acute and long-term toxicity was carried out. Results GJDCC could resist the convulsion of the isolated trachea of guinea pigs, lengthen the asthma incubation period of guinea pigs, increase the phlegm liquid secreting capacity of isolated rat trachea, promote the pigeon trachea cilium motion, lengthen the mice cough incubation period, restrain the mice ear swelling and rat swelling hyperplasia of granulation, promote the mice producing of serum hemolysin and the lymphocyte conversion rate, and reduce the guinea pig allergic reaction index and shock death rate. It possessed the bacteriostasis, the biggest capacity of bearing consumption was 500 times the clinical daily use and in long-term toxicity test there were not the clear toxicity reactions. Conclusion GJDCC has the function of relieving asthma and cough, removing phlegm, antibiosis and antiinflammation, antianaphylaxis and immunity, without poisonous side effect.

Study on Hemolysis,Allergic Reaction and Stimulation of Polydatin Injection / 中药新药与临床药理

Objective To observe the hemolysis,allergic reactions and stimulation of Polydatin Injection(PI),thus to provide evidence for clinical medication.Methods Hemolysis was observed by in-vitro rabbit blood hemolysis.Sys- temic allergy and passive skin allergy were tested on guinea pigs and rats.Vascular stimulation and muscle stimulation were tested on rabbits.Results There was no hemolysis or reaction in erythrocyte agglutination 30,60 and 180 rain after adding PI.No systemic anaphylaxis was found in guinea pigs.There was no skin allergy passive in rats.There was no vascular stimulation or muscle stimulation after injecting PI(0.39 mg/mL)5.6 mg/kg into rabbit ears.Con- clusion Under experimental conditions,PI(0.39 mg/mL)shows no hemolysis in vitro or agglutination reaction;it has no systemic anaphylaxis or passive skin allergy;it either has no stimulating effect in rabbit auricular vessels and muscles.

Pharmacological Study on Yiqipingchuan Pills(Radix Ginseng,Cornu Cervi Pantotrichum,etc.) / 中成药

This experiment showed that Yiqipingchuan Pills possessed obvious treatment action of cough and asthma,and expectorant action.It could cause a striking increase in the immunity-organ weight and carbon-particle clearance of hypoimmune mice.It was also found that these pills could make the con- centration of serum-hydrocortisone rise and the Vitamin C content in suprarene lower remarkably.
