OBJECTIVES@#To estimate postmortem interval (PMI) by analyzing the protein changes in skeletal muscle tissues with the protein chip technology combined with multivariate analysis methods.@*METHODS@#Rats were sacrificed for cervical dislocation and placed at 16 ℃. Water-soluble proteins in skeletal muscles were extracted at 10 time points (0 d, 1 d, 2 d, 3 d, 4 d, 5 d, 6 d, 7 d, 8 d and 9 d) after death. Protein expression profile data with relative molecular mass of 14 000-230 000 were obtained. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares (OPLS) were used for data analysis. Fisher discriminant model and back propagation (BP) neural network model were constructed to classify and preliminarily estimate the PMI. In addition, the protein expression profiles data of human skeletal muscles at different time points after death were collected, and the relationship between them and PMI was analyzed by heat map and cluster analysis.@*RESULTS@#The protein peak of rat skeletal muscle changed with PMI. The result of PCA combined with OPLS discriminant analysis showed statistical significance in groups with different time points (P<0.05) except 6 d, 7 d and 8 d after death. By Fisher discriminant analysis, the accuracy of internal cross-validation was 71.4% and the accuracy of external validation was 66.7%. The BP neural network model classification and preliminary estimation results showed the accuracy of internal cross-validation was 98.2%, and the accuracy of external validation was 95.8%. There was a significant difference in protein expression between 4 d and 25 h after death by the cluster analysis of the human skeletal muscle samples.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The protein chip technology can quickly, accurately and repeatedly obtain water-soluble protein expression profiles in rats' and human skeletal muscles with the relative molecular mass of 14 000-230 000 at different time points postmortem. The establishment of multiple PMI estimation models based on multivariate analysis can provide a new idea and method for PMI estimation.

OBJECTIVE@#To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) preconditioning on the expressions of tyrosine kinase Lyn and spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) in mast cells of subcutaneous loose connective tissue in the rats with urticaria and explore the potential biological mechanism of EA in the intervention of urticaria.@*METHODS@#A total of 32 SD rats were randomized into a blank group, a model group, an EA group and a positive medication group, 8 rats in each one. Except of the blank group, the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) was adopted to prepare the model of urticaria in the rats of the rest three groups. In the EA group, EA was applied to bilateral "Quchi" (LI 11), "Xuehai" (SP 10) and "Zusanli" (ST 36), with disperse-dense wave, 2 Hz/15 Hz in frequency and 1 mA in current intensity, once daily, for 20 min each time, consecutively for 7 days. In the positive medication group, loratadine (1 mg•kg•d) was for intragastric administration, once daily, consecutively for 7 days. The samples were collected for index detection 30 min after PCA antigen challenge in the rats of each group. Spectrophotometer was adopted to determine the effusion quantity of Evans blue in the allergized site of skin. HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes in the allergized site of skin. Toluidine blue staining was provided to observe mast cell degranulation in subcutaneous loose connective tissue in the allergized site of skin. Immunohistochemistry was applied to determine the protein expressions of Lyn and Syk during degranulation of mast cells.@*RESULTS@#In the rats of the odel group, the eipdermis of allergized site was thickening, cells were disorganized in hierarchy and inflammatory cells were infiltrated largely in the dermis. In the positive medication group and the EA group, the epidermis was getting thin, cell arrangement was clear and the inflammatory cell infiltration was obviously alleviated as compared with the model group. Compared with the blank group, the OD value of skin dye effusion quantity, the degranulation rate of mast cells and the positive expressions of Lyn and Syk were all increased in the model group (<0.01). Compared with the model group, the OD value of skin dye effusion quantity, the degranulation rate of mast cells and the positive expressions of Lyn and Syk were all reduced in the EA group and the positive medication group (<0.01). Compared with the positive medication group, the degranulation rate of mast cells was increased significantly in the EA group (<0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#Electroacupuncture at "Quchi" (LI 11), "Xuehai" (SP 10) and "Zusanli" (ST 36) reduces vascular permeability and gives play to the role of anti-allergy by the way of regulating and controlling the degranulation of mast cells in the rats with urticaria and the effect mechanism of electroacupuncture may be related to the inhibition of protein expressions of Lyn and Syk in mast cells.

Objective MicroRNAs are differentially expressed in colorectal cancer tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues, which play an important role in the development of colorectal cancer. This study aims to investigate the expression of microRNA-7-5p in colorectal cancer patients and its influence on the proliferation and apoptosis of colon cancer cell CaCo2. Methods The high-throughput microarray was used to screen differentially expressed microRNAs, and real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of microRNA-7-5p in 10 cases of colorectal cancer patients and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. Western blot was performed to detect the expression of intestinal trefoil factor (TFF3) in different tissues and CaCo2 cells after transfection with microRNA-7-5p. The expression of TFF3 in different tissues and CaCo2 cells transfected with microRNA-7-5p was detected. TUNEL combined with flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of CaCo2 cells after transfection. The CCK-8 assay was used to detect the proliferation of CaCo2 cells after transfection. Results The relative expression of MicroRNA-7-5p in colorectal cancer tissue was 0.409 ± 0.095, which was significantly lower than that of normal tissue adjacent to cancer (1.000 ± 0.014), and the difference was statistically significant (P <0.01). The relative expression of TFF3 in colorectal cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in normal adjacent tissues (P <0.01). The relative expression of TFF3 in CaCo2 cells decreased in the overexpressed microRNA-7-5p of the control group (0.729 ± 0.041). The proliferation ability (0.930 ± 0.007) was significantly lower in the blank control group (0.990 ± 0.005) (P <0.01), and it could increase the proportion of early apoptotic cells (50.700 ± 0.989) and late apoptotic cells (40.525 ± 0.515). Conclusion MicroRNA-7-5p is lowly expressed in colorectal cancer and is associated with the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer. Up-regulated microRNA-7-5p inhibits the proliferation of colon cancer cell CaCo2 and promotes its apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on degranulation of intraperitoneal mast cells (MCs) and expression of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling related proteins, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in urticaria rats, so as to reveal its mechanisms underlying improvement of urticaria. METHODS: Thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into control,model,EA and medication groups (n=8 in each group). The urticaria model was established by using passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction method. EA (2 Hz /15 Hz, 1 mA) was applied to bilateral "Zusanli"(ST36), "Quchi "(LI11) and "Xuehai"(SP10) for 20 min,once daily for 7 consecutive days before antigen attack. Rats of the medication group were treated by gavage of Loratadine(1 mg•kg-1•d-1)for 7 days. The diameter of cutaneous Evan's blue spots was measured to evaluate the severity of PCA. Intraperitoneal fluid smears were prepared to observe the degranulation state of MCs. The contents of TNF-α and IL-6 in the intraperitoneal fluid were detected by ELISA, and the expression of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), phosphorylated (p)-ERK, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p-JNK, P38MAPK and p-P38MAPK of the acquired intraperitoneal MCs was detected by Western blot. RESULTS: The diameter of cutaneous Evan's blue spot was significantly increased in the model group than that in the control group (P<0.01), and considerably decreased in both EA and medication groups compared with the model group(P<0.01). After modeling,the percentage of degranulated MCs, contents of TNF-α and IL-6, and expression levels of ERK, p-ERK, JNK, p-JNK, P38MAPK and p-P38MAPK were remarkably increased in the mo-del group than those in the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). After the treatment, the percentage of degranulated MCs, contents of TNF-α and IL-6, and expression levels of p-ERK, JNK, p-JNK and p-P38MAPK were obviously decreased in both EA and medication groups relevant to the model group (P<0.01, P<0.05), while no significant changes were found in the expression of ERK in both EA and medication groups, and P38MAPK in the EA group. Compared with the model and EA groups, expression levels of P38MAPK were down-regulated in the medication group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: EA can reduce skin allergic reaction in rats with urticaria, which may be related to its effects in inhibiting the degranulation of intraperitoneal MCs, down-regulating the expression of MAPK signaling-related proteins and the level of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6 in intraperitoneal MCs.

Background@#Prospective real-life data on the safety and effectiveness of rituximab in Chinese patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) or follicular lymphoma (FL) are limited. This real-world study aimed to evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness outcomes of rituximab plus chemotherapy (R-chemo) as first-line treatment in Chinese patients with DLBCL or FL. Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation management was also investigated.@*Methods@#A prospective, multicenter, single-arm, noninterventional study of previously untreated CD20-positive DLBCL or FL patients receiving first-line R-chemo treatment at 24 centers in China was conducted between January 17, 2011 and October 31, 2016. Enrolled patients underwent safety and effectiveness assessments after the last rituximab dose and were followed up for 3 years. Effectiveness endpoints included progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Safety endpoints were adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, drug-related AEs, and AEs of special interest. We also reported data on the incidence of HBV reactivation.@*Results@#In total, 283 previously untreated CD20-positive DLBCL and 31 FL patients from 24 centers were enrolled. Three-year PFS was 59% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 50-67%) for DLBCL patients and 46% (95% CI: 20-69%) for FL patients. For DLBCL patients, multivariate analyses showed that PFS was not associated with international prognostic index, tumor maximum diameter, HBV infection status, or number of rituximab treatment cycles, and OS was only associated with age >60 years (P < 0.05). R-chemo was well tolerated. The incidence of HBV reactivation in hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive and HBsAg-negative/hepatitis B core antibody-positive patients was 13% (3/24) and 4% (3/69), respectively.@*Conclusions@#R-chemo is effective and safe in real-world clinical practice as first-line treatment for DLBCL and FL in China, and that HBV reactivation during R-chemo is manageable with preventive measures and treatment.@*Trial Registration@#ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01340443; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT01340443.

On the basis of the chromogenic reaction between Hg and CuI, a semi-quantitative solid sampling Hg analyzer comprising the catalytic furance, Hg testing tube, air pump and smart cellphone was developed. White carrier 101 was chosen as the adsorbent for CuI to react with Hg from the catalytic furnace. The established Hg analyzer can not only visually recognize the coloration when Hg exceeding the limit standard, but also semi-quantitatively detect the Hg content in cosmetics fast using a smart cellphone and RGB analysis software, after direct solid sampling introduction of cosmetics sample. The instrumental detection limit ( LOD) of mercury was 50 ng, the linearity ranged from 50 ng to 2500 ng, the linear regression coefficient ( R2) was higher than 0. 97, and the RSD of the corresponding RGB values was 6% ( n=11 ) . Nine real cosmetics samples were measured by the established method, whose relative differences of Hg contents with that by the standard method (Safety Technical Specification for Cosmetics, 2015 edition) were less than 10% . The whole analytical time can be controlled within 5 min. The established instrumental method is simple, fast, accurate and visual, and extremely suitable to fast and on-site monitoring of Hg in cosmetics samples.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the essential biochemical indices like 1 -hydroxylase and hypocalcaemia in the rats with severe acute pancreatitis and explore the correlation between them.@*METHODS@#A total of 120 SPF grade Wistar male rats which were in similar physiological status were selected and randomly divided into two groups: sham group (SO group) and severe acute pancreatitis group (SAP group). Then they were divided into 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, and 12 h subgroups according to the killing time. The severe acute pancreatitis model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate. Serum calcium, serum creatinine, serum urea nitrogen and serum amylase were measured at different time. Serum 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 level was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbentassay. The expression of 1-hydroxylase protein in the kidney tissue was determined with Western blotting and immunohistochemistry to observe its location. The pathologic features of the kidney tissue section was observed under light microscope and submicroscopic structure of the proximal convoluted tubule epithelial cell was observed under transmission electron microscope.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the SO group, rats in the SAP group showed continuous pathological injury as time went by. There was significant increase in serum creatinine, serum urea nitrogen and serum amylase in SAP group compared with the SO group 1, 3, 6, 12 hours after the operation (P<0.05). There was significant decrease in serum calcium and 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 3, 6, 12 hours after the operation (P<0.05). It also showed that the expression of the 1-hydroxylase protein in kidney tissues was upregulated at 1 h, 3 h and decreased at 6 h, 12 h compared with the SO group. The serum calcium, 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 and the expression of the 1-hydroxylase protein in kidney tissues of the SAP group showed sustaining decrease. Western blotting showed positive correlation between the 1-hydroxylase expression and serum calcium at 3 h, 6 h and 12 h (r=0.976, P<0.001; r=0.948, P<0.001; r=0.742, P=0.001) and also positive correlation between the 1-hydroxylase expression and serum 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 at 1 h, 3 h, 6 h and 12 h (r=0.935, P<0.001; r=0.952, P<0.001; r=0.917, P<0.001; r=0.874, P<0.001).@*CONCLUSIONS@#At the early stage of the kidney injury, the expression of 1-hydroxylase in the kidney tissue is reduced with the progress of the disease and the decrease in its activity has a correlation with the hypocalcaemia.

This study investigated effects of Ginsenoside Ro (Ro) on interleukin-1β (IL-1β)-induced apoptosis and inflammation in rat chondrocytes. The rat chondrocytes were co-treated with IL-1β (10 ng·kg(-1)) and Ro (50, 100 and 200 μmol·L(-1)) for 48 h. Chondrocytes viability was detected by the MTT assay and Annexin V-FITC/PI dual staining assay. Caspase 3 activity was measured by using caspase 3 colorimetric assay kit. Apoptosis related proteins Bax, Bad, Bcl-xL, PCNA, p53 and phospho-p53, along with inflammation related protein MMP 3, MMP 9 and COX-2, and the expression of phospho-NF-κB p65 were assayed by western blotting analyses. Ro could improve IL-1β-induced chondrocytes viability. Ro could suppress IL-1β-induced apoptosis by inhibiting levels of Bax and Bad, decreasing p53 phosphorylation and promoting the expression of Bcl-xL and PCNA. Ro inhibited caspase 3 activity. IL-1β-induced inflammation and matrix degration were also alleviated by Ro with down-regulating the expression of MMP 3, MMP 9 and COX-2. Moreover, Ro inhibited NF-κB p65 phosphorylation induced by IL-1β. In conclusion, these results suggested Ro exerted anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammation in IL-1β-induced rat chondrocytes, which might be related to NF-κB signal pathway. Therefore, we propose that Ro might be a potential novel drug for the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Objective: To investigate the essential biochemical indices like 1 -hydroxylase and hypocalcaemia in the rats with severe acute pancreatitis and explore the correlation between them. Methods: A total of 120 SPF grade Wistar male rats which were in similar physiological status were selected and randomly divided into two groups: sham group (SO group) and severe acute pancreatitis group (SAP group). Then they were divided into 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, and 12 h subgroups according to the killing time. The severe acute pancreatitis model was established by retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate. Serum calcium, serum creatinine, serum urea nitrogen and serum amylase were measured at different time. Serum 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 level was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbentassay. The expression of 1-hydroxylase protein in the kidney tissue was determined with Western blotting and immunohistochemistry to observe its location. The pathologic features of the kidney tissue section was observed under light microscope and submicroscopic structure of the proximal convoluted tubule epithelial cell was observed under transmission electron microscope. Results: Compared with the SO group, rats in the SAP group showed continuous pathological injury as time went by. There was significant increase in serum creatinine, serum urea nitrogen and serum amylase in SAP group compared with the SO group 1, 3, 6, 12 hours after the operation (P<0.05). There was significant decrease in serum calcium and 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 3, 6, 12 hours after the operation (P<0.05). It also showed that the expression of the 1-hydroxylase protein in kidney tissues was upregulated at 1 h, 3 h and decreased at 6 h, 12 h compared with the SO group. The serum calcium, 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 and the expression of the 1-hydroxylase protein in kidney tissues of the SAP group showed sustaining decrease. Western blotting showed positive correlation between the 1-hydroxylase expression and serum calcium at 3 h, 6 h and 12 h (r=0.976, P<0.001; r=0.948, P<0.001; r=0.742, P=0.001) and also positive correlation between the 1-hydroxylase expression and serum 1, 25 dihydroxy vitamin D3 at 1 h, 3 h, 6 h and 12 h (r=0.935, P<0.001; r=0.952, P<0.001; r=0.917, P<0.001; r=0.874, P<0.001). Conclusions: At the early stage of the kidney injury, the expression of 1-hydroxylase in the kidney tissue is reduced with the progress of the disease and the decrease in its activity has a correlation with the hypocalcaemia.

This dissertation is to determine the biopotency of hemostat which processed in different places by establishing a bioassay method of Bletillae Rhizoma based on the thrombin time. Contrast test is the main methodology. Specifically, the reference substance of Bletillae Rhizoma is determined by comparing with the control substance of vitamin K1 using thrombin time, which is calibrated the Bletillae Rhizoma. The hemostatic biopotency is calculated by using the method of "parallel line assay method based on quantitative responses" (3.3) from different processed products. It indicates that there is a strong linear correlation between Bletillae Rhizoma and control drugs (Y = 66.332-23.913X, R2 = 0.995 3). The hemostatic biopotency of Bletillae Rhizoma from different processed products ranged between 821.93-1 187.53 U x g(-1) shown in the paper, and all of them can meet the requirements of the test. The methodology has an appropriate instrument precision (RSD 3.8%), intermediate precision (RSD 4.6%), repeatability (RSD 3.2%) and stability (RSD 3.7%). Therefore, it can be turned out that the methodology which established in the dissertation is good at determinating the hemostatic biopotency of Bletillae Rhizoma and it is reliable, simple and repeatable.
