METHODS: Thirty baby rats for IBS modeling were separated from mother rats(1 h per day) from days 8 to 21, and the rectum was expanded by angioplasty from days 8 to 12. Ten normal rats were used as normal controls. We examined the effects of TXYF on defection frequency, colonic transit function and smooth muscle contraction, and the expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) and substance P(SP) in colonic and hypothalamus tissues by Western blot and RT-PCT techniques in both normal rats and IBS model rats with characterized visceral hypersensitivity.in normal rats and 4.5 ± 1.58 in IBS model rats(P < 0.001). However, the defecation frequency was significantly decreased(3.0 ± 1.25 vs 4.5 ± 1.58, P < 0.05), while the time(in seconds) of colon transit function was significantly increased(256.88 ± 20.32 vs 93.36 ± 17.28, P < 0.001) in IBS + TXYF group rats than in IBS group rats. Increased colonic smooth muscle tension and contract frequency in IBS model rats were significantly decreased by administration of TXYF. Exogenous agonist stimulants increased spontaneous activity and elicited contractions of colon smooth muscle in IBS model rats, and all of these actions were significantly reduced by TXYF involving 5-HT and SP down-regulation. CONCLUSION: TXYF can modulate the activity of the enteric nervous system and alter 5-HT and SP activities, which may contribute to the symptoms of IBS.展开更多

This study established a rat model of chronic cerebral ischemia-caused white matter damage by ligation of the bilateral common carotid arteries. Rats received daily intragastric administration of a suspension of Kaixin ]ieyu Fang powder. After 3, 7 and 21 days of treatment, the degree of white matter damage in the cerebral ischemia rat model was alleviated, Bcl-2 protein and mRNA expression in brain tissue increased, and Bax protein and mRNA expression decreased. These results indicate that Kaixin Jieyu Fang can alleviate cere- bral white matter damage, and the underlying mechanism is associated with regulation of Bcl-2/ Bax protein and mRNA expression, which is one of possible mechanism behind the protective effect of Kaixin Jieyu Fang against vascular depression.展开更多

METHODS: Forty male nude mice were randomly divided into 4 groups. Human HCC tissue was implanted in the livers of three groups. After 24 h, the three groups were treated respectively with JPJDF (37.5 g/kg), saline (20 mL/kg) and Tegafur (FT-207, 160 mg/kg) once a day for 10 weeks. The control group without implanting the tissue was concurrently treated with saline (20 mL/kg). The survival data and body weight of all mice were recorded, and expression levels of PTEN, PI3K and FAK in normal tissue and cancer tissue of the livers were eval-uated with immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: The cumulative survival rate of the mice in the JPJDF group was higher than those of the other groups. The rate of weight loss was the lowest in JPJDF group. The survivability and weight loss rate in FT-207 group were the poorest in all groups. The expression intensity of PTEN was higher in normal tissues than in cancer tissues, and lower in the normal tissues of HCC models than in that of mice without HCC. The PTEN expression intensity in normal tissue and cancer tissue from mice treated with FT-207 were lower than that from the mice treated with JPJDF or saline.The expression intensity of PI3K was higher in cancer tissue than in normal tissue. The PI3K expression intensity was the lowest in normal tissue and cancer tissue from mice treated with JPJDF, and the intensity from mice treated with FT-207 was the highest. In mice treated with JPJDF, the expression intensity of FAK was higher in the normal tissue and lower in the cancer tissue than those of the other treatment groups. CONCLUSION: The mechanism accounting for the prolonged survival of HCC-bearing mice treated with JPJDF might be related to the reduction in weight loss and the benign regulation of PTEN, PI3K, and FAK.展开更多

METHODS: Five experiments were completed in this paper. In the first experiment, we found the most suitable serum containing Dangua Fang by comparing groups with different serum containing Dangua Fang. In the second experiments we analyzed Dangua Fang influencing endothelial cell viability and apoptosis and cell cycle. The third experiment on Dangua Fang intervention of mitochondrial respiratory chain. The fourth experiment on Dangua Fang intervention of mitochondrial membrane potential. And finally, on the fifth experiment we researched the mechanism of Dangua Fang improving mitochondrial function by comparing the Na~+-k~+-ATPase and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha(PGC-1α) in the Dangua group with the diazoxide group and Co Q+Vit C group. RESULTS: We compared the control group in the first experiments and the OD values in DZ1 group was the most significant in all intervening groups. The recipe of DZ1(5% serum containing Dangua Fang) was used in the following experiments. Compared with the control group, cell viability, cell cycle(G2 + S), cytochrome c oxidase(COX), R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green decreased and apoptosis, succinate dehydrogenase(SDH), green(R2 + R3), Na+-k+-ATPase, PGC-1α increased in the model group. Compared with the model group, cell viability, G2+S, COX, R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green raised and apoptosis, green(R2 + R3), Na-K-ATPase decreased in the Dangua group;G2 + S, R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green raised and green(R2 + R3) decreased in the Co Q + Vit C group. Na-K-ATPase increased in the combined group(P < 0.05 or < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Dangua Fang protects oxidative stressinduced endothelial cells damaged by promotion of mitochondrial biogenesis, reduction of Na~+-K~+-ATPase activity and regulation of mitochondrial respiratory chain function restoring mitochondrial membrane potential.展开更多

文摘AIM: To investigate whether the Chinese medicine Tong Xie Yao Fang(TXYF) improves dysfunction in an irritable bowel syndrome(IBS) rat model. METHODS: Thirty baby rats for IBS modeling were separated from mother rats(1 h per day) from days 8 to 21, and the rectum was expanded by angioplasty from days 8 to 12. Ten normal rats were used as normal controls. We examined the effects of TXYF on defection frequency, colonic transit function and smooth muscle contraction, and the expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT) and substance P(SP) in colonic and hypothalamus tissues by Western blot and RT-PCT techniques in both normal rats and IBS model rats with characterized visceral hypersensitivity.in normal rats and 4.5 ± 1.58 in IBS model rats(P < 0.001). However, the defecation frequency was significantly decreased(3.0 ± 1.25 vs 4.5 ± 1.58, P < 0.05), while the time(in seconds) of colon transit function was significantly increased(256.88 ± 20.32 vs 93.36 ± 17.28, P < 0.001) in IBS + TXYF group rats than in IBS group rats. Increased colonic smooth muscle tension and contract frequency in IBS model rats were significantly decreased by administration of TXYF. Exogenous agonist stimulants increased spontaneous activity and elicited contractions of colon smooth muscle in IBS model rats, and all of these actions were significantly reduced by TXYF involving 5-HT and SP down-regulation. CONCLUSION: TXYF can modulate the activity of the enteric nervous system and alter 5-HT and SP activities, which may contribute to the symptoms of IBS.

文摘The Chinese compound Kaixin fieyu Fang can be used to treat vascular depression; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study established a rat model of chronic cerebral ischemia-caused white matter damage by ligation of the bilateral common carotid arteries. Rats received daily intragastric administration of a suspension of Kaixin ]ieyu Fang powder. After 3, 7 and 21 days of treatment, the degree of white matter damage in the cerebral ischemia rat model was alleviated, Bcl-2 protein and mRNA expression in brain tissue increased, and Bax protein and mRNA expression decreased. These results indicate that Kaixin Jieyu Fang can alleviate cere- bral white matter damage, and the underlying mechanism is associated with regulation of Bcl-2/ Bax protein and mRNA expression, which is one of possible mechanism behind the protective effect of Kaixin Jieyu Fang against vascular depression.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of Jianpijiedu Fang (JPJDF) on phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), and focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and on the survival of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) nude mice. METHODS: Forty male nude mice were randomly divided into 4 groups. Human HCC tissue was implanted in the livers of three groups. After 24 h, the three groups were treated respectively with JPJDF (37.5 g/kg), saline (20 mL/kg) and Tegafur (FT-207, 160 mg/kg) once a day for 10 weeks. The control group without implanting the tissue was concurrently treated with saline (20 mL/kg). The survival data and body weight of all mice were recorded, and expression levels of PTEN, PI3K and FAK in normal tissue and cancer tissue of the livers were eval-uated with immunohistochemical method. RESULTS: The cumulative survival rate of the mice in the JPJDF group was higher than those of the other groups. The rate of weight loss was the lowest in JPJDF group. The survivability and weight loss rate in FT-207 group were the poorest in all groups. The expression intensity of PTEN was higher in normal tissues than in cancer tissues, and lower in the normal tissues of HCC models than in that of mice without HCC. The PTEN expression intensity in normal tissue and cancer tissue from mice treated with FT-207 were lower than that from the mice treated with JPJDF or saline.The expression intensity of PI3K was higher in cancer tissue than in normal tissue. The PI3K expression intensity was the lowest in normal tissue and cancer tissue from mice treated with JPJDF, and the intensity from mice treated with FT-207 was the highest. In mice treated with JPJDF, the expression intensity of FAK was higher in the normal tissue and lower in the cancer tissue than those of the other treatment groups. CONCLUSION: The mechanism accounting for the prolonged survival of HCC-bearing mice treated with JPJDF might be related to the reduction in weight loss and the benign regulation of PTEN, PI3K, and FAK.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the protective effects of serum containing Dangua Fang( 丹 瓜 方) on vascular endothelium damaged by oxidative stress. METHODS: Five experiments were completed in this paper. In the first experiment, we found the most suitable serum containing Dangua Fang by comparing groups with different serum containing Dangua Fang. In the second experiments we analyzed Dangua Fang influencing endothelial cell viability and apoptosis and cell cycle. The third experiment on Dangua Fang intervention of mitochondrial respiratory chain. The fourth experiment on Dangua Fang intervention of mitochondrial membrane potential. And finally, on the fifth experiment we researched the mechanism of Dangua Fang improving mitochondrial function by comparing the Na~+-k~+-ATPase and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1alpha(PGC-1α) in the Dangua group with the diazoxide group and Co Q+Vit C group. RESULTS: We compared the control group in the first experiments and the OD values in DZ1 group was the most significant in all intervening groups. The recipe of DZ1(5% serum containing Dangua Fang) was used in the following experiments. Compared with the control group, cell viability, cell cycle(G2 + S), cytochrome c oxidase(COX), R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green decreased and apoptosis, succinate dehydrogenase(SDH), green(R2 + R3), Na+-k+-ATPase, PGC-1α increased in the model group. Compared with the model group, cell viability, G2+S, COX, R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green raised and apoptosis, green(R2 + R3), Na-K-ATPase decreased in the Dangua group;G2 + S, R3 red/green, R2 red/green, R1 red/green raised and green(R2 + R3) decreased in the Co Q + Vit C group. Na-K-ATPase increased in the combined group(P < 0.05 or < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Dangua Fang protects oxidative stressinduced endothelial cells damaged by promotion of mitochondrial biogenesis, reduction of Na~+-K~+-ATPase activity and regulation of mitochondrial respiratory chain function restoring mitochondrial membrane potential.
