Materials and Methods: An ApoE-/-mice model with microemboli was developed by infusing fluorescently labeled heterologous fibrin-rich microparticles into the internal carotid artery of ApoE -/-gene knockout male mice through the common carotid artery. Before microemboli injection, the animals were randomly divided into four groups of 10 animals, treated daily for 6 weeks by intragastric administration: The ApoE-/-control group(physiological saline, 0.2 mL/10 g/d), YQHX group(0.2 ml/10 g/d), clopidogrel group(3 mg/kg/d), and atorvastatin group(3 mg/kg/d);a further group was constituted of normal male C57 BL/6 J mice(with the same genetic background as ApoE-/-mice;normal control group;no treatment;microemboli injection). The mice in each microemboli group were divided into three subgroups, the 2-h, 24-h, and 72-h subgroups, corresponding to the time after microemboli injection. Two hours(or 24 h or 72 h) after microemboli injection, the changes in aortic intima and brain tissue were analyzed by histopathology, the amounts of fluorescent emboli being measured by fluorescence microscopy image analysis. Comparison points included the microemboli induced loss of aorta functions and pathological changes, atherosclerotic plaque, brain ultrastructure and functions, and embolus extravasation. Results: Loss of aorta functions and adverse pathological changes, atherosclerotic plaque, serious damage in brain ultrastructure and functions, and reduced thrombus elimination were obviously serious in microemboli injected ApoE-/-mice. These symptoms were significantly relieved by the YQHX pretreatment:(i) the ratio of thrombus accumulation was increased with a significant decrease in thrombus extravasation in ApoE-/-mice, while YQHX induced an increased thrombus extravasation;(ii) the degre展开更多

Effects of Shakuyakukanzoto and the ingredients on rat intestinal tract were examined. Shakuyakukanzoto (0.01 - 0.3 mg/ml) relaxed a carbachol (CCh, 0.3 μM) - induced contraction in a concentration-dependent manner. Both components (Paeoniae radix and Glycyrrhizae radix) also relaxed the CCh-induced contraction. At 0.1 to 1 mM, their constituents (paeoniflorin and glycyrrhetic acid) and the metabolic products (18-α- and 18-β-glycyrrhetinic acids) exerted almost the same actions. The relaxations induced by Shakuyakukanzoto were not modified by 1 μM nicardipine, 10 μM suramin (ATP receptor inhibitor) and several K+ channel inhibitors, but was attenuated by 20 μM IBMX (a phosphodiesterase inhibitor). Also, IBMX inhibited the relaxations induced by paeoniflorin and glycyrrhetic acid, but not by other ingredients. Nicardipine decreased the relaxation of just 18-α-glycyrrhetinic acid. Even in non-treatment with CCh, Shakuyakukanzoto relaxed the intestinal tract. CCh (0.3 μM) elicited spontaneous contractions in 23% specimens, depressed by application of Shakuyakukanzoto. These results indicate that Shakuyakukanzoto causes a remarkable relaxation by the anti-cholinergic and the PDE inhibitory actions, but by minor contribution of Ca2+ channel inhibition. Thus, Shakuyakukanzoto exerts an anti-spasmodic action due to the interaction with pharmacological effects of its ingredients.展开更多

In order to evaluate the crude and processed Paeoniae Radix-Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma herbal pairs, a simple, easy, and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detectors was developed for simultaneous determination of nine bioactive components in the herbal pairs. The calibration curve exhibited good linearity（r2≥0.9992）. The LODs and LOQs were ≤7.30 and 11.53 μg/m L, respectively. The intra-, inter-day and repeatability RSD values of the nine compounds were less than 3.86%, 2.71%, and 4.29%, respectively. The RSD stability values were less than 3.64%. The recovery of the method was in the range of 96.70%–102.10%, with RSD values less than 3.52%. The developed method can be applied to the intrinsic quality control of crude and processed Paeoniae Radix-Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma herbal pairs.展开更多

Methods： The cultured endothelial cells were divided into normal, model （ox-LDL）, control （fetal bovine serum）, PG high dose （20 p,g/mL）, PG middle dose （10 μg/mL）, and PG low dose （5 μg/mL） groups, each derived from three different pools of umbilical cords. The model of injured human umbilical vein endothelial cells （HUVECs） was induced by ox-LDL. The 3-（4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl）-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium bromide （MTT） assay, Hoechst 33258 staining, flow cytometry and measurement of nitrogen monoxidum （NO） release were used to evaluate the protective effect of PG against ox-LDL-induced apoptosis and death in HUVECs. To find out the mechanism of this protective effect, the expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase （eNOS） mRNA, eNOS protein expression, immunofluorescence of intracellular reactive oxygen species （ROS） and activities of malondialdehyde （MDA）, superoxidedismutase （SOD） and glutathione peroxidase （GPx） were observed. Results： PG significantly reduced ox-LDL-induced apoptosis and cell death. The percentage of cells death and apoptosis was significantly higher in the ox-LDL group than that in the control group （P〈0.05）. Compared with the control group, the cells death and apoptosis of PG group was no different （P〉0.05）. As compared with the ox-LDL group, results of the PG high dose group showed that cell viability was significantly increased （P〈0.05）, the level of NO release, expression of eNOS mRNA, densitometric value of eNOS protein expression, as well as the activities of SOD and GPx were all significantly higher （all P〈0.05）. Conclusion： PG could potentially serve as a novel endothelial protective ag展开更多
