Aim To establish insulin resistance cell model on HepG2 cells (human embryonic liver tumor cells )and investigate the effect of berberine hydro-chloride on insulin-resistant HepG2 (IR-HepG2 ) cells.Methods ① IR model was induced by respec-tively using 10 -9 ,10 -8 ,10 -7 ,10 -6 ,10 -5 ,10 -4 mol ·L-1 insulin with 25 mmol · L-1 glucose in HepG2 cells.② HepG2 cells were incubated with 2-NBDG (fluorescent labeled glucose)in a series of concentra-tion:50,100,200,400,600,800 μmol·L-1 and a series of incubation time:20,40,60,80,100 min, to select the optimum concentration of insulin and the optimum incubation concentration and time of 2-NBDG in HepG2 cells.The success of the model was deter-mined by detecting the consumption of glucose in the cell supernatant and the uptake of glucose in HepG2 cells.③To study the effect of berberine hydrochloride on improving insulin resistance on the cell level,met-formin and berberine hydrochloride were used in the IR cells.Results Six concentrations of insulin induced the IR model in different degrees.Although 10 -4, 10 -5 mol·L-1 insulin was significant,a large amount of cells died.10 -6 mol·L-1 insulin was effective and had high survival rate of HepG2 cells,which had sta-tistical significance compared with the normal group. When the incubation concentration of 2-NBDG was more than 100 mol·L-1 ,the fluorescence intensity of the cells was significantly different from the normal group.When the incubation time of 2-NBDG was more than 20 min,fluorescence intensity was significantly different from the normal group.When the incubation time of 2-NBDG was more than 100 min,the fluores-cence quenching phenomenon was obvious in the cells. Berberine hydrochloride and metformin significantly in-creased the glucose consumption and glucose uptake in cell supernatant, which had statistical significance compared with the model group.Conclusions Using 10 -6 mol · L-1 insulin induced IR model in HepG2 cells,the optimum incubation concentration and incu-bation time of 2-NBDG is 200 μmol·L-1 and 80 min, respectively.Berberine hydrochloride and metformin have obvious effect on improving IR in HepG2 cells.

Objective To investigate the effects of xuanzhi analgesic tablets on plasma levels of 6-keto-prostaglandin Flα(6-K-PGFlα) and thromboxane B2(TXB2) in rats with acute blood stasis. Methods Sixty SD rats were divided into six groups randomly, namely normal control, model control, positive control, xuanzhi analgesic tablets at 1. 36, 2. 72, and 5. 44 g·kg-1 groups. The rat model of blood stasis syndrome was caused by subcutaneous injection of adrenaline incorporated with ice-bathing. The effects of xuanzhi analgesic tablet on 6-K-PGFlαand TXB2 were observed. Results Compared with the normal control,plasma level of 6-K-PGFlα was significantly reduced(P<0. 01) and that of TXB2 in the model control was evidently increased(P<0. 01). Three dosages of xuanzhi analgesic tablets significantly raised 6-K-PGFlαlevel(P<0. 05)and lowered TXB2 level (P<0. 05). Conclusion Xuanzhi analgesic tablets significantly adjust plasma levels of 6-K-PGFlαand TXB2in rats with acute blood stasis. Xuanzhi analgesic tablets can coreect the imbalance between PGI2 and TXA2 through increasing 6-K-PGFlαand desearing TXB2 levels.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study effects of Huanglian Jiedu Decoction (HJD) on lipid metabolism, leptin and resistin in insulin resistive rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) rat model was induced by intravenous injection with a low dose of streptozotocin and high fat and high caloric diet, and randomized into four groups: the model control group, the HJD group, the berberine group and the aspirin group. Meanwhile 16 normal rats were assigned as the normal control group. The body weight was observed before and after treatment, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), apolipoprotein A1 and B (apoA1, apoB), free fatty acid (FFA), insulin (INS) in serum, skeletal muscle triglyceride (mTG) in skeletal muscle, and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were detected after 10 weeks of treatment, at the same time, serum levels of leptin and resistin were determined using ELLISA.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The levels of TC, TG, apoB, FBG, FFA, mTG, leptin and resistin were obviously lowered, the levels of HDL-C and apoA1 significantly raised, glucose tolerance improved and body weight reduced in insulin resistive rats, as compared with the model control (P<0.05, P<0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The effects of HJD in lowering lipids, as well as reducing leptin and resistin might be closely correlated with its effects in ameliorating insulin resistance.</p>

AIM: To explore the therapeutic strategies of heat-clearing and detoxifying (HCDT) and Yin-invigorating and fluid-supplementing (YIFS), the method of Chinese medicine, on the high density lipoprotein (HDL) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) molecules, which are associated with endotoxin-degradation. METHODS: The animal model of endotoxemia was established by the injection of E. Coli lipopolysaccharides through rabbits ear vein. The endotoxemic rabbits were treated respectively with two representative herbal preparations of therapeutic principles against febrile diseases: HCDT or YIFS preparations. The serum levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1), tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?) and HDL, the ALP activity, the expression of ALP mRNA in liver and kidney tissues were observed. RESULTS: The serum levels of IL-1 and TNF-? in HCDT group were significantly decreased, while the serum ALP activity and the expression of ALP mRNA in liver and kidney tissues were obviously increased, as compared with those in model group. Meanwhile, the serum levels of IL-1 and TNF-? in YIFS group were significantly reduced, and its plasma HDL level was elevated. CONCLUSIONS: Both the herbal preparations, HCDT and YIFS, have the scavenging effects on the overproduction of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 and TNF-? induced by endotoxin, but their effects on the endotoxin-degrading molecules might be different. HCDT principally increases ALP activity and enhances ALP expression in liver and kidney tissues, while YIFS might preferably facilitate the elevation of plasma HDL level.
