RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of treatment of chronic primary glomerulopathy (CPG) patients of Shen deficiency and dampness heat syndrome (SDDHS) by Yishen Qingli Granule (YQG) combined with low-dose Tripterygium Wilfordii multiglycoside Tablet (TWT). METHODS: Totally 231 CPG patients of SDDHS were enrolled in this study (including 60 patients from First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, 58 from First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, 46 from Xinqiao Hospital of Third Military Medical University, 35 from First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, 14 from First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, and 18 from Wuxi Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine). They were randomly assigned to the control group (116 cases) and the trial group (115 cases) according to block group method. There were 217 cases in the safety analysis set (109 cases in the trial group vs 108 cases in the control group), and 203 cases in the full analysis set (99 cases in the trial group vs 104 cases in the control group). All patients received basic treatment such as ACEI/ARB. Furthermore, YQG (consisting of raw astragalus 10 g, prepared Polygonum Multiflorum 10 g, Pyrrosia 10 g, 1.5 g each package, containing 10 g of crude drugs) was additionally given to patients in the trial group, each package, twice daily. The TWT (10 mg) was given, twice a day. The TWT dose was adjusted according to 24 h urinary total protein (UTP). The placebos of YQG and TWT were administered to those in the control group. The treatment course consisted of 24 weeks and the follow-up visit lasted for 24 weeks. The biochemical indices were observed before and after treatment including 24 h UTP, urine red cell count (U(RBC)), renal functions (BUN, SCr), blood routine test (WBC), and liver functions (SGPT, SGOT). Reverse reactions such as gastrointestinal discomfort, skin rash, and irregular menstruation were also observed. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the total effective rate was better in the trial group (82.83% vs 61.54%, P < 0.01). Results of stratified comparison of UTP showed better efficacy in the trial group (0.8-3.0 g/24 h, P < 0.01). The UTP decline occurred in the trial group after 8 weeks of treatment, with stable action, showing statistical difference when compared with the control group (P < 0.01). In the trial group, U(RBC) level decreased after treatment but changed more significantly. But there was no statistical difference in the changes when compared with the control group (P > 0.05). After treatment, there were no statistical difference in safety indicators such as WBC, SGPT, and SGOT between the two groups after treatment (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: On the basis of basic treatment such as ACEI/ARB, application of YQG combined with low-dose TWT had better effect in controlling proteinuria of CPG patients, and could help stabilizing their conditions with less adverse reactions.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the biological function of BMAL1 in human acute myeloid leukemia by means of the HL-60 cell line in whica circadian gene BMAL1 was konocked-out by the CRISPR/Cas9 technology. METHODS: Two sgRNAs for BMAL1 were designed and the PX459 knockout vectors containing the sgRNA were constructed. The activity of 2 sgRNAs was detected by T7 endonuclease I. the BMAL1 knocked out HL-60 cells were prepared by transient transfection of the target vectors into the cells. Western blot was used to detect the expression of BMAL1 protein. The apoptosis of the targeted cells was detected by flow cytometry. The proliferation status of the cells was assessed by the CCK-8 assay. RESULTS: The PX459-sgRNA vectors were successfully constructed and screened to assure the activity of the targeting vector. It was found that the expression of BMAL1 protein was not detected in BMAL1-knocked out HL- 60 cells. Further, it was shown that BMAL1 knockdout could promote the apoptosis of HL-60 cells and inhibit the cell proliferation ability. CONCLUSION: BMAL1 knocked out HL-60 cells have bean successfully established using the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technique, and BMAL1 knockout can promote the HL-60 cell apoptosis and inhibit its proliferation.These result reveal the biological role of the BMAL1 circadian gene in acute myeloid leukemia.

RESUMO

The present study assessed the mechanism underlying the effect of sorafenib on the proliferation and apoptosis of the acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) cell line NB4. NB4 cells were treated with different concentrations of sorafenib (0, 1.5, 3, 6, and 12 µM) for 24, 48 and 72 h. Cell proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis were analyzed using an MTT assay and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. Reverse transcription-semi-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis were performed to assess the expression of caspase-3, caspase-8, myeloid cell leukemia (MCL)1, cyclin D1, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK), phosphorylated (P)-MEK, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and P-ERK. The results of the MTT assay demonstrated that, compared with untreated cells, the proliferation of sorafenib-treated NB4 cells was inhibited dose- and time-dependently. Furthermore, cell cycle arrest was induced in the G0/G1 phase and cell apoptosis was promoted in a dose-dependent manner in sorafenib-treated NB4 cells compared with untreated cells. In addition, the expression of the proapoptotic molecules caspase-3 and caspase-8 was significantly upregulated, and the expression of the antiapoptotic molecule MCL1 and the cell cycle-associated cyclin D1 was downregulated in sorafenib-treated NB4 cells compared with untreated cells. Furthermore, the phosphorylation of MEK and ERK was inhibited in sorafenib-treated NB4 cells compared with untreated cells. Sorafenib may inhibit proliferation and induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in APL cells. The underlying mechanisms of such effects may be associated with alterations to the expression of apoptosis-associated and cell cycle-associated molecules via MEK/ERK signaling pathway inhibition.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of acupuncture on post-stroke spastic paralysis. METHODS: A systematic evaluation including all the relavant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-RCTs of acupuncture and moxibustion for treatment of post-stroke spastic paralysis were carried out according to the method recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration. RESULTS: Nine hundred and seventy-eight patients being included in fourteen papers met the enrolled criteria. However, their methodological quality was relatively poor. Meta-analysis of nine trials indicated that there was no significant difference between the treatment groups and the control groups in Ashworth scores, Carr-Shepherd scores, nerve defect scores and hip adductor tension scores. Whereas the Fugel-Meyer scores in one trial and the Barthel scores in three trials were better in the treatment groups than those of the control group. CONCLUSION: A reliable conclusion can not be drawn from the present data because of the defects in methodological quality and insufficient numbers of trials, especially lack the long-term terminal outcomes, although it appears a tedency that acupuncture can improve the conditions of post-stroke spastic paralysis. Therefore, it is necessary to perform more multi-central RCTs of high quality in future.
