Objective To investigate whether sodium tanshinone ⅡA sulphonate ( STS) treatment attenuates pulmonary edema of seawater drowning ( PE-SWD) , and examine the effects of STS on Na-KATPase(NKA) in PE-SWD. Methods Thirty-six rats were randomly divided into there groups, ie. a normal group ( NG) , a seawater group ( SG) , and a STS treatment group ( TG) . The rat model of PE-SWD was established by seawater instillation. PaO2 , histological changes of lungs, lung wet /dry weight ratio ( W/D) ,pulmonary microvascular permeability ( PMVP) , and NKA activity were detected. Western blot were used to test the effects of STS on NKA-α1 expression. Results Seawater instillation decreased PaO2 and the expression of NKA, while increased W/D ratio and PMVP. At 2 h after seawater instillation, the PaO2 in the TG group were significantly higher than those in the SG group, and peaked at 4 h after seawater instillation.Histological examination showed that there were hemorrhage, edema, markedly thickened alveolar wall, and infiltration of inflammatory cells in alveolar spaces in the SG group, but lung injury was significantly alleviated in the TG group. W/D ratio and PMVP in the TG group were significantly lower than those in the SG group. Additionally, NKA activity and NKA-α1 expression were significantly higher in the TG group than those in the SG group. Conclusion STS treatment can attenuate pulmonary edema of seawater drowning which may be related with up-regulating Na-K-ATPase activity and expression.
【摘要】 目的 系统评价丹参酮治疗寻常痤疮的疗效和安全性。 方法 计算机检索Cochrane图书馆、PubMed、EMBase、CBM、VIP、CNKI数据库，起止时间均从建库至2009年9月。手工检索其他皮肤病相关杂志。对纳入的丹参酮治疗寻常痤疮的随机对照试验（RCT）进行质量评价，并进行Meta分析。 结果 共纳入11个RCT，但其质量普遍不高。Meta分析结果显示，丹参酮在治疗寻常痤疮相比于抗生素治疗，其有效率明显高于对照组，有统计学意义[RR=1.38，95%CI（1.25，1.51），Plt;0.000 01]，其不良反应发生概率明显低于对照组，统计学意义[OR=0.32，95%CI（0.22，0.46），Plt;0.000 01]。 结论 丹参酮治疗寻常痤疮的疗效和安全性优于抗生素治疗。但由于纳入研究少，研究质量普遍不高，上述结果有待高质量大样本的随机双盲对照试验加以验证。【Abstract】 Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of danshinone in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Methods The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBase,CBM,VIP and CNKI database were searched from established time to September 2009. Manual testing other dermatosis related magazines. Randomized controlled trails (RCTs) that included were evaluated and analyzed by the software RevMan 5.0. Results Eleven studies were included,but their quality were not high. The result of Meta analysis demonstrated that there were statistical differences of indexes between groups as total effective rate [RR=1.38, 95%CI (1.25,1.51),Plt;0.000 01] and adverse reactions [OR=0.32,95%CI(0.22,0.46),Plt;0.000 01]. Conclusions The preliminary results of the system evaluation indicates that danshinone is safe and effective for acne vulgaris. However, due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, the results suggest that further and larger-scale trials using tanshinone for acne vulgaris are needed.
目的:研究丹参酮ⅡA(Tan ⅡA)对急性早幼粒细胞白血病(APL)细胞株NB4细胞诱导的血管内皮细胞株(ECV304)促凝活性(PCA)的影响,并对其机制作初步探讨。方法:(1)分别用1.0μg/mL TanⅡA、0.3μg/mLATRA、0.01%DMSO、PRMI1640处理NB4细胞24、48和72h,取其上清液作为条件培养基(hNB4-CM)。将这些CM分别与ECV304细胞在37oC共同孵育0、4、8和12h,用反复冻融法制备ECV304细胞裂解液,采用一期凝血法测定其PCA;采用ELISA法测定条件培养基中的TNF-α 。(2)ECV304细胞与1.0μg/mL TanⅡA及TanⅡA 72h-NB4-CM 在37oC共同分别孵育6、12、24和48h,并以ATRA和DMSO分别作为阳性和阴性对照,用上述相同方法测定ECV304细胞裂解液的PCA。结果:(1)1.0 μg/mL Tan ⅡA可以诱导NB4细胞分化,其作用NB4细胞的培养基有一定的升高ECV304细胞PCA的作用,该作用在孵育4h时达高峰,之后ECV304细胞PCA逐渐下降。与0.3μg/mL ATRA的作用无统计学差异(Pgt;0.05)。(2)1.0 μg/mL的TanⅡA对TanⅡA72h-NB4-CM促ECV304细胞PCA有抑制作用,其强度随作用时间增加而增加,与1.0μmol/L ATRA比较,Pgt;0.05。(3)TanⅡA作用NB4细胞的培养基中TNF-α浓度,在作用前7h内随作用时间增加而增加,与0.3μg/mL ATRA比较无差异(Pgt;0.05)。结论:Tan ⅡA能诱导NB4细胞分化,后者在分化过程中释放的TNF-α可能与ECV304细胞PCA活性升高有关;Tan-ⅡA又能抑制Tan-ⅡA-NB4-CM增强ECV304细胞PCA的作用。
ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effects of different doses of tanshinone ⅡA microemulsion on radioactive lung injury. MethodsSeventy-two Wistar rats were randomly divided into a healthy control group,a model group,a liposome microemulsion treatment group,a tanshinone ⅡA microemulsion high-dose group,a tanshinone ⅡA microemulsion middle-dose group,and a tanshinone ⅡA microemulsion low-dose group.Radiation-induced lung injury model was established by irradiation of radiotherapy instrument.In addition to the control group,other groups received 6MV X radiation with one dosage of 22Gy.Four rats in each group were sacrificed on 7th,14th,and 28th day,respectively.Lung tissues were sampled to analyze the pathological changes by HE staining and the Smad7 mRNA expression by RT-PCR.The level of glutathione(GSH)in peripheral blood was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometric method. ResultsIn the model group and four treatment groups,lung tissue biopsy showed the pathological changes gradually from pulmonary alveolitis to fibrosis.The level of Smad7 mRNA in lung tissue and GSH in peripheral blood were higher in the high-dose group,the middle-dose group and the low-dose group than those in the model group at all time points(P<0.05),and were highest in the high-dose group.There was no significant differences in the level of Smad7 mRNA in lung tissue and GSH in peripheral blood between the liposome microemulsion treatment group and the middle-dose group. ConclusionTanshinone ⅡA microemulsion has treatment effect on lung injury in a dose dependent manner.
ObjectiveTo observe the protective effect of tanshinone Ⅱ A on the mouse liver ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) model and preliminarily explore its mechanism of alleviating liver injury.MethodsThe IRI mouse model was established after the pre-treating with tanshinone Ⅱ A. Then, the serum and liver tissue of mice were collected to detect the changes of liver function, histopathology, liver cell apoptosis, and inflammatory factors. In addition, the protein expression levels of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), advanced glycosylation end-product specific receptor (RAGE), and Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the liver tissues were detected by the Western blot method.ResultsAll data were analyzed by the homogeneity of variance test. The results of factorial design showed that the levels of ALT and AST in the serum, the pathological score and apoptosis index, the inflammatory response, as well as the expressions of HMGB1, TLR4 and RAGE proteins in the liver tissues were decreased significantly (P<0.05) in the sham operatation plus tanshinone Ⅱ A mice, which were increased significantly (P<0.05) in the IRI mice, which were antagonized synergistically by the tanshinone ⅡA and IRI (P<0.05).ConclusionsTanshinone ⅡA could reduce the liver IRI and inflammatory response in mouse. These effects might be related to the down-regulations of TLR4, HMGB1, and RAGE expressions.
Objectives To investigate the effects of cryptotanshinone (CTS) on cigarette smoke (CS) -induced airway inflammation and oxidative stress in mice and the possible mechanisms. Methods BALB/c mice were exposed to CS for 4 weeks to establish airway inflammation model. CTS was given by intraperitoneal injection before CS exposure at a dosage of 30 mg·kg−1·d−1 or 15 mg﹒kg−1·d−1. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was acquired for cell counting and detection of pro-inflammatory cytokine [interleukine (IL)-17, monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)-1, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α] levels. Lung tissue was collected for histological examination, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, immunohistochemistry and polymerase chain reaction for Muc5ac detection, and western blot for lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein-1 receptor (LOX-1) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB. Results CTS administration attenuated CS exposure induced thickening of the airway epithelium, peribronchial inflammatory cell infiltration, and lumen obstruction, increased numbers of total cells, macrophages, and neutrophils, and decreased the releases of IL-17, MCP-1, TNF-α in BALF of mice. CS exposure could induce the elevation in MDA levels and decrease in SOD activities, markers of oxidative stress. CTS could attenuate these changes. CTS also attenuated CS induced up-regulation of the protein levels of LOX-1 and phosphorylated p65, down-regulation of the levels of NF-κB inhibitor α. Conclusion CTS alleviates the airway inflammation, oxidative stress and mucus hypersecretion induced by CS, which may be through the regulation of LOX-1 and NF-κB signaling pathway.
