Expression of intercellular adhesion molecule in lung tissues of experimental acute lung injury and the effect of rhubarb

AIM:To approach the relationship between the expression of intercellular adhesion (ICAM-1 mRNA) and acute lung injury (ALI) as well as the mechanisms of rhubarb in the prevention and treatment of the lung injury. METHODS:ALI animal model was performed by Lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The rats were divided into 4 groups: LPS group, control group, rhubarb+LPS group and dexamethasone+LPS group. Histopathological examination and biological markers were measured for the lung specimens. Molecular hybridization method was used to determine the expression of ICAM-1 mRNA. RESULTS:The ICAM-1 mRNA expression in the lung tissues of LPS group significantly increased compared with control group (P＜0.01), rhubarb and dexamethasone had the action of decreasing the ICAM-1 mRNA expression (P＜0.05, P＜0.01); pathologic changes and the biological markers of ALI significantly decreased or ameliorated. CONCLUSION:The increase in the expression of ICAM-1 mRNA in the lung tissues of ALI is involved in the formation of ALI. Rhubarb and dexamethasone can ameliorate the lung damage, mechanism of which may be related to the inhibition of ICAM-1 mRNA expression.

Mechanism of Fuzilizhong decoction alleviating inflammatory damage of rats with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

AIM To observe the effect of Fuzilizhong decoction on the inflammatory damage of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD） rats and to explore its mechanism. METHODS SPF male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups： control group, model group, high dose （20 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）, middle dose （10 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）, low dose （5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） Fuzilizhong decoction group and Yishanfu （30 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）group, 8 rats in each group. A NAFLD rat modelwas established by intragastric administration of fat emulsion for 4 weeks. Then the drug was given for 4 weeks in each treatment group. HE staining was performed to observe the histopathological changes of the rat liver.The serum levels of interleukin-2（IL-2）, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） were measured by ELISA. The expression of toll like receptor 4（TLR4） and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues at mRNA and protein levels was determined by RT-qPCR and Western bolt,respectively. RESULTS Compared with control group, the inflammatory damage of liver tissue was more serious, the serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α, the mRNA expression TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues were significantly increased in model group（P<0.05）. However, compared with model group, the liver pathological changes in each treatment group were significantly relieved, the serum levels of IL-2, IL-6 and TNF-α, the mRNA expression of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 in liver tissues were significantly reduced（P<0.05）.In addition, the changes of TLR4 and p-NF-κB p65 protein levels in liver tissue were consistent with the changes of TLR4 and NF-κB p65 mRNA. CONCLUSION Fuzilizhong decoction attenuates the inflammatory damages of NAFLD in rats by inhibiting TLR4/NF-κB p65 signaling pathway.     

Effect of Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction on endothelial dysfunction in ovariectomized female rats

AIM: To investigate the effect of Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction on endothelium-dysfunction in ovariectomized rats. METHODS: The ovariectomized rats were treated with Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction or turbid liquid of estradiol valerate for 8 weeks. The vascular ring tension was measured. Scanning electron microscopy and Western blotting were applied to assess the function of endothelium-dependent dilation, aortic endothelial morphology and the expression of endothelial lipase. The pathologic sections were prepared to observe the effect of Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction on the uterus. RESULTS: In ovariectomized rats, the decrease in endothelium-dependent relaxation to acetylcholine (ACh) was reversed to normal level, the endothelial morphology returned to normal without lipid accumulation and the endothelial lipase expression was decreased by Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction. Furthermore, no obvious change of the wet weight of uterine between the ovariectomized rats with or without Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction treatment was observed. CONCLUSION: Jia-jian-yi-yin decoction may have protective effects on endothelium-dependent vasodilation and aortic endothelial morphology in estrogen-deficient animals.     

Effects of Tian ma gou teng decoction on the serum free calcium concentration and the L-type calcium channels in the vascular smooth muscle cells in spontaneously hypertensive rats

AIM: The research was to investigate the effects of the Tian ma gou teng decoction on the electric physiology feature of L-type calcium channels in the vascular smooth muscle cells in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), and to further explain the mechanism of the Tian ma gou teng decoction in the intervention of blood pressure.METHODS: 12-week-old SHRs were assigned randomly into five groups：group A (treated with Tian ma gou teng decoction), group B (treated with Tian ma gou teng decoction with subtraction concha haliotidis), group C (treated with nifedipine), group D (treated with concha haliotidis), group E (treated with normal saline as control), each group consisted of 9 rats. After treatments were conducted for 4 weeks, the free calcium concentration in serum was measured. The electric physiology feature of L-type calcium channels in the vascular smooth muscle cells was analyzed by patch clamp technique (PCT).RESULTS: No significant difference between group A and group C was observed in the serum free calcium concentration (P>0.05). There were significant differences among group B, group D and group E (P<0.05), compared to before treatment, the change in group E was the most obvious. A decrease in the L-type calcium channel current of vascular smooth muscle cells was observed in group A and group C. The function of group D was feeble, no decrease in the L-type calcium channels current of vascular smooth muscle cells was observed in group B and group E.CONCLUSION: Tian ma gou teng decoction can increase the serum free calcium concentration and block the L-type calcium channel current in vascular smooth muscle cells, indicating one of the mechanism of intervention of blood pressure.     

Influence of Sini decoction on the proliferation and apoptosis of artery smooth muscle cells after balloon injury

AIM: To investigate the influence of Sini decoction (SND) on the proliferation and apoptosis of rabbit abdominal aorta smooth muscle cells after ballon injury and discuss the effect of vascular smooth muscle cell's (VSMCs) proliferation and apoptosis in post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) restenosis (RS) and the feasibility of SND preventing post-PCI RS. METHODS: The animal model of rabbit abdominal aorta ballon injury was set up and the therapertic group was treated with SND. The shape of proliferative and apoptotic cell were investigated by electron microscope. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed using α-actin,PCNA and Cyclin E monoclonal antibodies. In situ Cell Death Detection Kit was used to identify apoptotic cells. Abdomial aorta angiography was operated in the 84th day subgroup and the stenosis degree was evalued by quantitative angiographic analysis. RESULTS: As compared with the control group, the therapeutic group displayed a lower proliferative percentage and a higher apoptosic percentage (P<0.05). Moreover, the apoptosic peek time was on the 14th day after operation,which was longer than the control group. CONCLUSION: SND effectly inhibited the proliferation of VSMCs and iuduced apoptosis in VSMCs.     

Effects of Sini decoction on atherosclerosis and ceramide content of aorta in rabbits

AIM:To observe the effects of Sini decoction on atherosclerosis(AS) and ceramide content of aorta in rabbits. METHODS:28 rabbits were randomly divided into three groups. Control group was fed with a normal diet; High cholesterol group was fed 1% cholesterol and 5% fat diet; Sini decotion+ high cholesterol group was fed 1% cholesterol and 5% fat diet plus Sini decotion (4.2 g·kg^-1·d^-1). At the end of study, the plaque area were measured, the atorta ceramide and cell apoptosis were also detected. RESULTS:Sini decotion diminished lipid plaque area on the aortic endothelium, reduced the levels of aorta ceramide and the apoptosis index. CONCLUSION:Sini decoction has an inhibitory effect on AS, the mechanism may be that Sini decotion reduces concentration of ceramide in aorta.
