RESUMO
Objective To investigate the efficacy of Dingxuan Decoction combined with vestibular function rehabilitation training in the treatment of Meniere's disease and to observe its effect on clinical symptoms and blood flow of vertebral artery.Methods A total of 100 patients with Meniere's disease of liver-kidney yin deficiency complicated with wind-water upward stirring type were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 50 patients in each group.The control group was given conventional treatment and vestibular function rehabilitation training,and the observation group was treated with Dingxuan Decoction on the basis of treatment for the control group.The two groups were treated for 4 weeks and then were followed up for 6 months.The changes of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome score,Dizziness Handicap Inventory(DHI)score,Tinnitus Handicap Inventory(THI)score,hearing visual analogue scale(VAS)score and vertebral artery blood flow in the two groups were observed before and after the treatment.After treatment,the TCM syndrome efficacy,hearing improvement and follow-up results were compared between the two groups.Results(1)After 4 weeks of treatment,the total effective rate for TCM syndrome efficacy of the observation group was 86.00%(43/50),and that of the control group was 62.00%(31/50),and the intergroup comparison showed that the TCM syndrome efficacy in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(2)After 4 weeks of treatment,the hearing of patients in both groups was improved,and the total effective rate for the efficacy of hearing improvement in the observation group was 76.00%(38/50),while that in the control group was 46.00%(23/50).The intergroup comparison showed that the efficacy of hearing improvement in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(3)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores,DHI score,THI score and hearing VAS scores in the two groups were all decreased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.01).(4)After treatment,the average blood flow velocity of the left vertebral artery(LVA)and the right vertebral artery(RVA)in the two groups were both increased compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the increase in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).(5)The results of 6-month follow-up after treatment showed that the incidence of Meniere's disease and the frequency of attack in the observation group were significantly reduced compared with those in the control group,and the episode duration in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group,the differences being all statistically significant(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Dingxuan Decoction combined with vestibular function rehabilitation training exert certain effect in treating patients with Meniere's disease of liver-kidney yin deficiency complicated with wind-water upward stirring type,and the therapy is effective on improving patients'clinical symptoms and vertebral artery blood flow,reducing the risk of recurrence and improving the quality of life of the patients.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effect of Cyr61 on imatinib (IM) resistance in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and its mechanism.@*METHODS@#Cyr61 level in cell culture supernatant was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of Cyr61 and Bcl-xL were measured by real-time PCR and Western blot. Cell apoptosis was analyzed using an Annexin V-APC Kit. Expression of signal pathways related proteins was determined by Western blot.@*RESULTS@#The level of Cyr61 obviously increased in K562G cells (IM resistance to CML cell line K562). Down-regulating the expression of Cyr61 decreased the resistance of K562G cells to IM and promoted IM induced apoptosis. In CML mouse model, down-regulating the expression of Cyr61 could increase the sensitivity of K562G cells to IM. The mechanism studies showed that Cyr61 mediated IM resistance in CML cells was related to the regulation of ERK1/2 pathways and apoptosis related molecule Bcl-xL by Cyr61.@*CONCLUSION@#Cyr61 plays an important role in promoting IM resistance of CML cells. Targeting Cyr61 or its related effectors pathways may be one of the ways to overcome IM resistance of CML cells.

Objective To explore the application of erlotinib based targeting fluorescent probe in the detection of lung cancer.Methods The erlotinib based targeting fluorescent probe was prepared.The lung cancer cells of A-549 were selected as experimental group,and cervical cancer cells of CaSki,SiHa and C33-A were selected as control group.The A-549,CaSki,SiHa and C33-A cells were identified by 0.1 × 10-6,1 × 10-6,10 × 10-6 mol · L-1 fluorescent probe;the identification ability of erlotinib based targeting fluorescent probe on cells in the two groups was observed under the inverted fluorescence microscope.Results When the concentration of fluorescent probe was 10 × 10-6 mol · L-1,the strong fluorescence signal was observed in A-549 and CaSki cells,but the fluorescence signal was not observed almost in SiHa and C33-A cells.When the concentration of fluorescent probe was 1 × 10-6 mol · L-1,the strong fluorescence signal was observed in A-549 cells;the weak fluorescence signal was observed in C33A cells;the fluorescence signal was not observed almost in SiHa and C33-A cells.When the concentration of fluorescent probe was 0.1 × 10-6 mol · L-1,the strong fluorescence signal was observed in A-549 cells;the fluorescence signal was not observed almost in CaSki,SiHa and C33-A cells.Conclusion Erlotinib based targeting fluorescent probe can specifically recognize lung cancer A-549 cells.
