RESUMO
ObjectiveTaking Chuanxiong Chatiaosan prescription as the carrier, by comparing the differences of volatile components in Chuanxiong Rhizoma with single decoction pieces and compatible prescription of different decoction pieces, the differences of material basic connotation of different formulations of Chuanxiong Chatiaosan were revealed from the aspects of processing (raw and wine-processed products), compound compatibility and dosage form (powder and decoction). MethodThe volatile oil was extracted from different decoction pieces of Chuanxiong Rhizoma, Chuanxiong Chatiaosan and its decoction with different decoction pieces of Chuanxiong Rhizoma by steam distillation, the main components and their relative contents were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). ResultA total of 25 volatile components were identified from different processed products of Chuanxiong Rhizoma, including 11 monoterpenoids, 4 phenols, 3 sesquiterpenoids, 3 phthalides, 2 ketones and 2 olefins, the contents of α-pinene, β-pinene, 3-butylphthalide and others increased after the raw products was processed with wine. A total of 85 constituents were identified from Chuanxiong Chatiaosan with different decoction pieces, including 31 monoterpenoids, 23 sesquiterpenoids, 5 alcohols, 5 aldehydes, 4 phenols, 4 phthalides, 3 ethers, 3 ketones, 1 olefin, 1 organic acid, 2 esters and 3 other compounds. A total of 22 components, including 9 sesquiterpenoids, 3 phthalides, 2 phenols, 6 monoterpenoids, 1 aldehyde and 1 alkane, were identified from the decoction of Chuanxiong Chatiaosan with different processed products. ConclusionThere was no significant difference in the composition between raw products and wine-processed products of Chuanxiong Rhizoma either in single decoction pieces or in compatibility prescription, but the relative content changed to some extent, and the wine-processed products was the most obvious. There was a great difference in the composition of volatile components between the Chuanxiong Chatiaosan and its decoction. The volatile components, such as isopulegol, isocalamendiol and safrole, were not found in the decoction. Components in Chuanxiong Rhizoma processed with wine will change with the addition of yellow rice wine, and volatile components can reflect the difference between decoction pieces and prescriptions of the wine-processed products.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE:To study the mechanism of enhancement effects of Astragalus complanatus polysaccharides(ACP) on the proliferation of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells in rabbits. METHODS :The meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells were isolated from 1-month-old New Zealand white rabbits. The meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells were divided into normal control group (PBS), positive control group (glucosamine sulfate ,10 mg/mL)and ACP high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups (40,20,10 mg/mL). The morphology of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells were observed under microscope. Cell proliferation rate was detected by MTT assay. Cell cycle was observed with flow cytometry. ELISA assay was used to detect relative expression of medium collagen type Ⅱ(Col Ⅱ)and alkaline phosphatase protein (ALP)in meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells. RT-qPCR and Western blotting assay were adopted to detect mRNA and protein expression of transforming growth factor β 1 (TGF-β 1) and bone morphogenetic protein 2(BMP-2). RESULTS :After cultured for 72 h,meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells were fused into a single layer,and most of them were slender type in appearance. Compared with normal control group ,the proliferation rate of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells and the percentage of cells at G 1/G0 phase were decreased significantly in positive control group and ACP high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups (P<0.05);the percentage of cells at S phase ,protein expression of Col Ⅱ and ALP,mRNA and protein expression of TGF-β1 and BMP- 2 were increased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with positive control group,inhibitory rate of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells proliferation and the percentage of cells at G 1/G0 phase were decreased significantly in ACP high-dose group (P<0.05),while the percentage of cells at S phase ,protein expression of Col Ⅱ and ALP , mRNA and protein expression of TGF-β1 and BMP- 2 were increased significantly (P<0.05). The inhibitory proliferation rate of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells and the percentage of cells at G 1/G0 phase were increased significantly in ACP low-dose group (P< 0.05),while the percentage of cells at S phase ,protein expression of Col Ⅱ and ALP ,mRNA and protein expression of TGF-β1 and BMP- 2 were decreased significantly (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in above indexes of ACP medium-dose group. CONCLUSIONS :ACP can promote the proliferation of meniscal fibrochondrocytes cells ,reduce the percentage of cells at G1/G0 phase,promote cell transformation to S phase ;the mechanism of which may be related to up-regulating TGF-β1,BMP-2 mRNA and protein expression ,promoting Col Ⅱ and ALP protein expression enhancement.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a commonly sport-induced knee joint injury that does serious harm to the knee stability. ACL reconstruction is a commonly used treatment method, but researches on 1/2 peroneus longus tendon (PLT) graft are rarely reported. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical outcomes of removing the autologous ipsilateral 1/2 PLT under arthroscopy for ACL reconstruction. METHODS:106 patients with complete ACL rupture in the Affiliated Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Southwest Medical University from December 2010 to December 2014 were enrolled, and autologous ipsilateral 1/2 PLT was removed under arthroscopy for ACL reconstruction. At baseline, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively, the knee stability was evaluated manually through the anterior drawer test, Lachman test, and pivot-shift test, and the knee function was evaluated by Tegner activity scale, Lysholm and International Knee Documentation Committee scores. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Postoperative anterior drawer test, Lachman test, and pivot-shift test tests were negative in all patients. In terms of Tegner activity scale, Lysholm and International Knee Documentation Committee scores, there were significant differences at baseline and postoperative 3 months as compared with postoperative 6 months (P 0.05). These results indicate that autologous ipsilateral 1/2 PLT is a good choice for ACL reconstruction under arthroscopy, achieving rapid and satisfactory functional recovery of the knee joint, which is not only minimally invasive and easy to operate, but also exhibits good therapeutic efficacy.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Greater tuberosity of humerus, as the attachment point of rotator cuff, plays a vital role in shoulder.Neer and AO classification for proximal humeral fractures have been accepted extensively. However, the classification for single greater tuberosity fractures of the proximal humerus is little reported, and its fixation method remains controversial.OBJECTIVE: To explore the curative efficacy of the double-row suture anchors under arthroscopy for avulsion-type greater tuberosity fractures (Mutch type Ⅰ) METHODS: Clinical data of 24 patients with avulsion-type greater tuberosity fractures (Mutch type Ⅰ) undergoing double-row suture anchors under arthroscopy were analyzed retrospectively. The displacement distance of the greater tuberosity of humerus was measured on CT before and after fixation. The shoulder joint was evaluated by Constant-Murley Score and the University of California, Los Angeles score at baseline, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Besides, the visual analogue scale scores were detected at baseline and 12 months postoperatively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Double-row suture anchors effectively improved the displacement of greater tuberosity and rotator cuff injury. (2) The patients accompanied by rotator cuff injury accounted for 79.16%. (3) The Constant-Murley Score and the University of California, Los Angeles scores were significantly improved at each time point (P < 0.05). The visual analogue scale scores after fixation were significantly superior to those before fixation (P < 0.05). (4) These results suggest that the double-row suture anchors under arthroscopy can effectively improve the displacement of greater tuberosity and alleviate the pain. Moreover, it is conductive for early recovery of the shoulder function with little trauma, so it is a good choice for avulsion-type greater tuberosity fractures (Mutch type Ⅰ).
