温阳解毒化瘀颗粒对肝衰竭IETM大鼠TLR4 mRNA,TNF-α及肝细胞凋亡的影响

目的:研究Toll样受体4(TLR4) mRNA及其下游炎性因子肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)与肝衰竭肠源性内毒素血症(IETM)大鼠肝细胞凋亡的关系,并探索温阳解毒化瘀颗粒对内毒素介导的肝细胞凋亡的调控机制。方法:SPF级雄性SD大鼠85只,随机分为正常组,模型组,TLR4单克隆抗体组和温阳解毒化瘀颗粒组(8.925 g·kg^-1)。采用D-半乳糖胺(D-Gal)腹腔注射建立肝衰竭IETM模型,TLR4单克隆抗体组和温阳解毒化瘀颗粒组在造模前5 d给予温阳解毒化瘀颗粒溶液灌胃,正常组、模型组以等容积蒸馏水代替,直至处死。各组分别在24,48,72 h随机处死大鼠并采集标本。检测24,48,72 h各组时间点血清丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT),天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)水平,苏木素-伊红(HE)染色观察肝组织病理变化,实时荧光定量聚合酶链式反应(Real-time PCR)检测肝组织TLR4 mRNA表达,酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)检测肝组织TNF-α表达,流式细胞仪检测肝细胞凋亡率。结果:与正常组比较,模型组ALT,AST升高,肝组织病理损伤程度明显加重,TLR4mRNA,TNF-α表达均增高(P<0.05,P<0.01),肝细胞凋亡率明显上升(P<0.05,P<0.01);与模型组比较,温阳解毒化瘀颗粒组ALT,AST显著降低(P<0.01),肝组织病理损伤程度明显减轻(P<0.05),TLR4 mRNA,TNF-α表达显著下降(P<0.01),肝细胞凋亡率亦显著降低(P<0.01)。结论:TLR4 mRNA,TNF-α在肝衰竭时与肝细胞凋亡呈正相关,温阳解毒化瘀颗粒能够改善肝衰竭IETM大鼠肝功能,减轻肝细胞损伤,减少肝细胞凋亡,其机制可能与其下调肝脏TLR4 mRNA表达,抑制TNF-α释放,降低肝细胞凋亡率有关。     

Myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) key genes analysis in rat anti-CD28-induced immune tolerance kidney transplantation

BackgroundIn the field of transplantation, inducing immune tolerance in recipients is of great importance. Blocking co-stimulatory molecule using anti-CD28 antibody could induce tolerance in a rat kidney transplantation model. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) reveals strong immune suppressive abilities in kidney transplantation. Here we analyzed key genes of MDSCs leading to transplant tolerance in this model.MethodsMicroarray data of rat gene expression profiles under accession number {"type":"entrez-geo","attrs":{"text":"GSE28545","term_id":"28545"}}GSE28545 in the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were analyzed. Running the LIMMA package in R language, the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were found. Enrichment analysis of the DEGs was conducted in the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) database to explore gene ontology (GO) annotation and their Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways. Their protein-protein interactions (PPIs) were provided by STRING database and was visualized in Cytoscape. Hub genes were carried out by CytoHubba.ResultsThree hundred and thirty-eight DEGs were exported, including 27 upregulated and 311 downregulated genes. The functions and KEGG pathways of the DEGs were assessed and the PPI network was constructed based on the string interactions of the DEGs. The network was visualized in Cytoscape; the entire PPI network consisted of 192 nodes and 469 edges. Zap70, Cdc42, Stat1, Stat4, Ccl5 and Cxcr3 were among the hub genes.ConclusionsThese key genes, corresponding proteins and their functions may provide valuable background for both basic and clinical research and could be the direction of future studies in immune tolerance, especially those examining immunocyte-induced tolerance.     

益气活血通络汤治疗原发性高血压合并糖耐量减低临床研究

目的:观察中药益气活血通络汤治疗高血压合并糖耐量减低的临床疗效。方法:将64例高血压合并糖尿病患者,随机分为2组各32例,对照组口服硝苯地平片治疗;观察组加用中药益气活血通络汤,以治疗前后收缩压(SBP)、舒张压(DBP)、三酰甘油(TG)、总胆固醇(TC)、高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、血糖、胰岛素、胰岛素敏感性指数(ISI)、胰岛素抵抗指数(HOMA-IR)为观察指标。结果:治疗3个月后,观察组疗效优于对照组(Z=-1.998,P<0.05)。与治疗前比较,2组经治疗后SBP、DBP、TC、TG、LDL-C均下降,HDL-C上升,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);观察组治疗后SBP、DBP、TC、TG、LDL-C、HDL-C与对照组治疗后比较,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。与治疗前比较,2组经治疗后空腹和餐后2 h血糖、胰岛素、HOMA-IR均下降,ISI上升,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);且经治疗后,观察组上述所有指标改善情况均优于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。2组患者在3个月的治疗期间中均未出现严重不良反应。结论:中药益气活血通络汤治疗高血压合并糖耐量降低疗效较好且安全性高,能显著降低血压,改善血脂。     

糖尿病前期中医证型及证素特点分析＊

目的 探讨糖尿病前期的中医证型及证素分布特点。方法 检索中国知网、万方及维普三大数据库中收录的自建库以来有关糖尿病前期证型的临床研究文献，对中医证型进行规范整理，建立数据库，提取证素，运用数据挖掘技术中的关联分析、聚类分析探究证素分布规律。结果 共纳入10篇文献，总有效病例1620例，证型经规范处理后整理为18个，主要证型为脾虚痰湿证。共提取证素13个，主要病位证素为脾，主要病性证素为气虚、湿和痰，关联分析显示脾—湿支持度和置信度最高，聚类分析结果可得到3个聚类组。结论 糖尿病前期病位在脾，气虚、脾、痰、湿是常见证素，临床诊治糖尿病前期应注重从脾论治，需辨证施治。
