Siwu decoction at 363.8, 727.5, and 1 455 mg·kg^(–1) was orally administered to potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemic mice for 7 days. Serum urate, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen levels and hepatic xanthine oxidase(XOD) activity were measured. The protein levels of hepatic XOD and renal urate transporter 1(URAT1), glucose transporter 9(GLUT9), organic anion transporters 1(OAT1), ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2(ABCG2), organic cation transporter 1(OCT1), OCT2, organic cation/carnitine transporter 1(OCTN1), OCNT2, Nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC), Caspase-1, and interleukin-1β(IL-1β) were determined by Western blotting. Renal histopathology change was obtained following hematoxylin-eosin staining. Our results indicated that Siwu decoction significantly reduced serum urate, creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and increased fractional excretion of uric acid in hyperuricemic mice. It effectively reduced hepatic XOD activity and protein levels in this animal model. Furthermore, Siwu decoction down-regulated URAT1 and GLUT9 protein levels, and up-regulated the protein levels of OAT1, ABCG2, OCT1, OCT2, OCTN1, and OCTN2 in the kidney of the hyperuricemic mice. Additionally, Siwu decoction remarkably reduced renal protein levels of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1, and IL-1β in the hyperuricemic mice. These results suggested that Siwu decoction exhibited anti-hyperuricemic and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting hepatic XOD activity, regulating renal organic ion transporter expression, and suppressing renal NLRP3 inflammasome activation, providing the evidence for its use in the treatment of hyperuricemia and associated kidney inflammation.展开更多

Pathological damage and collagen accumulation were detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson’s trichrome staining in uterus, respectively. Myeloperoxidase was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.The expression levels of fibronectin, laminin, matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP-9), and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1(TIMP-1) were quantified using western blotting.RESULTS: THSWD could promote endometrial protection in rats following drug-induced abortion.The contents of cellulose and myeloperoxidase were significantly decreased in uterine tissue of THSWD-treated groups. Moreover, THSWD significantly decreased the expression levels of fibronectin, laminin, and TIMP-1. THSWD also significantly increased MMP-9 expression and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio.CONCLUSION: THSWD plays a critical role in endometrial protection by reducing extracellular matrix deposition and uterine fibrosis. These effects may have been achieved by increasing MMP-9, reducing TIMP-1, and/or altering the ratio of MMP-9/TIMP-1.展开更多
Objective:To assess the effects of traditional herbal formulae Sijunzi Decoction(四君子汤,Sagunja-tang,SJZD),Siwu Decoction(四物汤,Samul-tang,SWD),Bawu Decoction(八物汤,Palmul-tang,BWD)and Shiquan Dabu Decoctio...Objective:To assess the effects of traditional herbal formulae Sijunzi Decoction(四君子汤,Sagunja-tang,SJZD),Siwu Decoction(四物汤,Samul-tang,SWD),Bawu Decoction(八物汤,Palmul-tang,BWD)and Shiquan Dabu Decoction(十全大补汤,Sipjeondaebo-tang,SDD)on the activities of human cytochrome P450(CYP450),a drug-metabolizing enzyme.Methods:Herbal formula water extracts were filtered and lyophilized after the powder extracts were dissolved in distilled water.The activities of major human CYP450isozymes(CYP3A4,CYP2C19,CYP2D6 and CYP2E1)were measured using in vitro fluorescence-based enzyme assays.The inhibitory effects of the herbal formulas on the activities of CYP450 were characterized as half maximal inhibition concentration(IC50)values.Results:All the tested herbal formulae inhibited CYP2C19activity(IC50:SJZD,83.28μg/m L;SWD,235.54μg/m L;BWD,166.82μg/m L;SDD,178.19μg/m L);SJZD(IC50=196.46μg/m L),SWD(IC50=333.42μg/m L)and SDD(IC50=163.42μg/m L)inhibited CYP2E1-mediated metabolism;whereas BWD exhibited comparatively weak inhibition of CYP2E1(IC50=501.78μg/m L).None of the four herbal formulas significantly affected CYP3A4 or CYP2D6.Conclusions:These results suggest that SJZD,SWD,BWD and SDD could potentially inhibit the metabolism of co-administered synthetic drugs whose primary route of elimination is via CYP2C19.In addition,clinically relevant pharmacokinetic interactions could occur when SJZD,SWD or SDD is co-administered with drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.Our findings provide information for the safety and effective clinical use of these four classic herbal formulas.展开更多

Although tissue plasminogen activator has been used to treat stroke patients, this therapeutic strategy is confronted with ill side effects and is limited to patients within 3 h of a stroke. Due to the complexity of the events and the disappointing results from single agent trials, the combination of thrombolytic therapy and effective neural protection therapy may be an alternative strategy for patients with cerebral ischemia. Chinese medicine (CM) is the most widely practiced form of herbalism worldwide, as it is a sophisticated system of medical theory and practice that is specifically different from Western medicine. Most traditional therapeutic formulations consist of a combination of several drugs. The combination of multiple drugs is thought to maximize therapeutic efficacy by facilitating synergistic actionsand preventing possible adverse effects while at the same time marking at multiple targets. CM has been labeled in ancient medicine systems as a treatment for various diseases associated with stroke. This review summarizes various CMs, bioactive compounds and their effects on cerebral ischemia.展开更多

Methods: Ninety-five patients with PIN were divided into 2 groups at random. The 60 patients in the treated group were treated with MTSD and the 35 patients in the control group were treated with heparin. The clinical therapeutic effect and levels of thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto-prostacyclin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α) before and after treatment were observed. Results: The total effective rate in the treated group was 81.7%, which was similar to that in the control group (80.0%, P>0.05). The levels of TXB2 and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1α ratio were higher in both groups of the patients as compared with those of the healthy control (P<0.01). After treatment, the two criteria were significantly improved in the two treated groups, as compared with those before treatment, the difference was significant (P<0.01), while in comparison between the MTSD treated group and the control group, no significant difference was found (P>0.05). Conclusion: MTSD has good effect in treating PIN, it could improve the metabolic unbalance of thromboxane and prostacyclin.展开更多

文摘The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of Siwu decoction on hyperuricemia, kidney inflammation, and dysfunction in hyperuricemic mice. Siwu decoction at 363.8, 727.5, and 1 455 mg·kg^(–1) was orally administered to potassium oxonate-induced hyperuricemic mice for 7 days. Serum urate, creatinine, and blood urea nitrogen levels and hepatic xanthine oxidase(XOD) activity were measured. The protein levels of hepatic XOD and renal urate transporter 1(URAT1), glucose transporter 9(GLUT9), organic anion transporters 1(OAT1), ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 2(ABCG2), organic cation transporter 1(OCT1), OCT2, organic cation/carnitine transporter 1(OCTN1), OCNT2, Nod-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3), apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC), Caspase-1, and interleukin-1β(IL-1β) were determined by Western blotting. Renal histopathology change was obtained following hematoxylin-eosin staining. Our results indicated that Siwu decoction significantly reduced serum urate, creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels and increased fractional excretion of uric acid in hyperuricemic mice. It effectively reduced hepatic XOD activity and protein levels in this animal model. Furthermore, Siwu decoction down-regulated URAT1 and GLUT9 protein levels, and up-regulated the protein levels of OAT1, ABCG2, OCT1, OCT2, OCTN1, and OCTN2 in the kidney of the hyperuricemic mice. Additionally, Siwu decoction remarkably reduced renal protein levels of NLRP3, ASC, Caspase-1, and IL-1β in the hyperuricemic mice. These results suggested that Siwu decoction exhibited anti-hyperuricemic and anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting hepatic XOD activity, regulating renal organic ion transporter expression, and suppressing renal NLRP3 inflammasome activation, providing the evidence for its use in the treatment of hyperuricemia and associated kidney inflammation.

文摘OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of Taohong Siwu decoction(桃红四物汤, THSWD) on the extracellular matrix of endometrium in rats following drug-induced abortion.METHODS: Thirty-six pregnant female rats were administered mifepristone and misoprostol to induce abortion, and amounts of uterine bleeding were recorded. Pathological damage and collagen accumulation were detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson’s trichrome staining in uterus, respectively. Myeloperoxidase was evaluated by immunohistochemistry.The expression levels of fibronectin, laminin, matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP-9), and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1(TIMP-1) were quantified using western blotting.RESULTS: THSWD could promote endometrial protection in rats following drug-induced abortion.The contents of cellulose and myeloperoxidase were significantly decreased in uterine tissue of THSWD-treated groups. Moreover, THSWD significantly decreased the expression levels of fibronectin, laminin, and TIMP-1. THSWD also significantly increased MMP-9 expression and the MMP-9/TIMP-1 ratio.CONCLUSION: THSWD plays a critical role in endometrial protection by reducing extracellular matrix deposition and uterine fibrosis.

文摘Stroke is an important cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide but effective therapeutic strategy for the prevention of brain injury in patients with cerebral ischemia is lacking. Although tissue plasminogen activator has been used to treat stroke patients, this therapeutic strategy is confronted with ill side effects and is limited to patients within 3 h of a stroke. Due to the complexity of the events and the disappointing results from single agent trials, the combination of thrombolytic therapy and effective neural protection therapy may be an alternative strategy for patients with cerebral ischemia. Chinese medicine (CM) is the most widely practiced form of herbalism worldwide, as it is a sophisticated system of medical theory and practice that is specifically different from Western medicine. Most traditional therapeutic formulations consist of a combination of several drugs. The combination of multiple drugs is thought to maximize therapeutic efficacy by facilitating synergistic actionsand preventing possible adverse effects while at the same time marking at multiple targets. CM has been labeled in ancient medicine systems as a treatment for various diseases associated with stroke. This review summarizes various CMs, bioactive compounds and their effects on cerebral ischemia.
文摘Objective: To observe the clinical effect of Modified Taohong Siwu Decoction (MTSD) in treating pediatric intractable nephropathy (PIN). Methods: Ninety-five patients with PIN were divided into 2 groups at random. The 60 patients in the treated group were treated with MTSD and the 35 patients in the control group were treated with heparin. The clinical therapeutic effect and levels of thromboxane B2 (TXB2) and 6-keto-prostacyclin F1α (6-keto-PGF1α) before and after treatment were observed. Results: The total effective rate in the treated group was 81.7%, which was similar to that in the control group (80.0%, P>0.05). The levels of TXB2 and TXB2/6-keto-PGF1α ratio were higher in both groups of the patients as compared with those of the healthy control (P<0.01). After treatment, the two criteria were significantly improved in the two treated groups, as compared with those before treatment, the difference was significant (P<0.01), while in comparison between the MTSD treated group and the control group, no significant difference was found (P>0.05). Conclusion: MTSD has good effect in treating PIN, it could improve the metabolic unbalance of thromboxane and prostacyclin.
