Twelve neonatal clean grade Wistar rats were selected. The cardiomyocytes were isolated, cultured and divided according to different treatments in the medium. The cardiomyocyte size was determined by phase contrast microscope, and the rate of protein synthesis was measured by [3H]-Leucine incorporation. The c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). It was found after cardiomyocytes were treated with AngⅡ for 30 min, the c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes was increased significantly (P〈0.01). After treatment with AngⅡ for 24 h, the rate of protein synthesis in AngⅡ group was significantly increased as compared with control group (P〈0.01). After treatment with AngⅡ for 7 days, the size of cardiomyocytes in AngⅡ group was increased obviously as compared with control group (P〈0.05). After pretreatment with STS or Valsartan before AngⅡ treatment, both of them could inhibit the above effects of AngⅡ (P〈0.05 or P〈0.01). It was suggested that STS could ameliorate AngⅡ-induced cardiomyocyte hy- pertrophy by inhibiting c-fos and c-jun mRNA expression and reducing protein synthesis rate of cardiomyocytes.展开更多

Methods: In the primary culture of neonatal rat myocardial cells, the total protein content in myocardial cells was determined by coomassie brilliant blue and the protein synthesis rate was measured by [3H]-Leucine incorporation as indexes for hypertrophy of myocardial cells. The expression of p-ERK1/2 was determined using Western blot and immunofluorescence labeling. Results: (1) The total protein and protein synthesis rate increased significantly in contrast to the control group after the myocardial cells were stimulated by Ang Ⅱ (1 μ mol/L) for 24 h; STS markedly inhibited the increment of the total protein level induced by Ang Ⅱ and the syntheses of protein. (2) After pretreatment of myocardial cells with Ang Ⅱ (1 μmol/L) for 5 min, the p-ERK1/2 protein expression was increased, with the most obvious effect shown at about 10 min; pretreatment of myocardial cells with STS at different doses (2, 10, 50μmol/L) for 30 min resulted in obvious inhibition of the expression of p-ERK1/2 stimulated by Ang Ⅱ in a dose-dependent manner. (3) After the myocardial cells were stimulated by AngⅡ (1 μ mol/L), the immunofluorescence of ERK1/2 rapidly appeared in the nucleus. The activation and translocation process of ERK1/2 induced by Ang Ⅱ was blocked distinctly by STS. (Conclusion: STS inhibited the myocardial cell hypertrophy induced by Ang Ⅱ, and the mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of p-ERK1/2 expression.展开更多

Methods: The effect of STS on cytotoxicity was evaluated using the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-3,5- phenytetrazoliumromide (MTT) assay. As indexes for cardiocyte hypertrophy, cell size was determined by phase contrast microscopy and protein synthesis rate was measured by 3H-leucine incorporation. The proto-oncogene c-fos mRNA expression of cardiocytes was assessed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results: STS could inhibit cardiocyte hypertrophy, increase the protein synthesis rate and enhance proto-oncogene c-fos mRNA expression in cardiocytes induced by Ang Ⅱ(P〈0.01), with an effect similar to that of Valsartan, the Ang Ⅱ receptor antagonist. Conclusion: STS can prevent the hypertrophy of cardiac myocytes induced by Ang Ⅱ, which may be related to its inhibition of the expression of proto-oncogene c-fos mRNA.展开更多

Methods: According to a random number table, 24 Tats were randomly divided into 3 groups: sham operation group (sham group), sepsis model group (model group) and STS treatment group (STS group), with 8 Tats in each group. A rat model of sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) for 5 h. STS (1 mg/kg) was slowly injected through the right external jugular vein after CLP. The histopathologic changes in the intestine tissue were observed under a light microscope, and the intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxynucleoddyl transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method. The expressions of Bcl-2, Bax and nuclear factor κB (NF- κ B) p65 in the intestinal tissue was determined by Western blot. The levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) in the intestinal tissue were determined using enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay (ELISA). Results: Obvious injuries were observed in the intestinal tissue in the CLP group compared with the sham group. The expression of NF- K B p65 and the levels of TNF- α and IL-6 were up-regulated after CLP, the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells was increased after CLP, and the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax was decreased. STS post- treatment could attenuate the injury on the intestinal tissue induced by CLP, decrease the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells and the levels of NF- κ B p65, TNF-α and IL-6, and increase the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax. Conclusion: STS can protect the small intestine in rats with sepsis, and the mechanism may be associated with the inhibition of intestinal epithelial apoptosis and the reduction of activation of inflammatory cytokines.展开更多

Our data demonstrated that X-rays inhibited cell growth and increased oxidative stress in CFs, and STS mitigated X-ray-induced injury. Enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay showed that X-rays increased the levels of secreted angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ) and brain natriuretic peptide(BNP). STS inhibited the X-ray-induced increases in Ang Ⅱ and BNP release. Apoptosis and cell cycle of CFs were analyzed using flow cytometry. X-rays induced apoptosis in CFs, whereas STS inhibited apoptosis in CFs after X-ray irradiation. X-rays induced S-phase cell cycle arrest in CFs, which could be reversed by STS. X-rays increased the expression of phosphorylated-P38/P38,cleaved caspase-3 and caspase-3 as well as decreased the expression of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2(ERK1/2)/ERK 1/2 and B cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2)/Bcl-2 associated X protein(BAX) in CFs, as shown by Western blotting. STS mitigated the X-ray radiation-induced expression changes of these proteins. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that STS may potentially be developed as a medical countermeasure to mitigate radiation-induced cardiac damage.展开更多

文摘A novel integrated film of sulfonated polysulfone/graphene/potassium copper ferricyanide(KCuFC/SPSG)was used for selectively extracting rubidium ion(Rb^(+))from brine.To form KCuFC/SPSG,the precursor film of sulfonated polysulfone/graphene(SPSG)was synthesized by phase conversion process,which was alternately immersed in 0.1 mol·L^(-1)CuSO_(4)/K_(4)[Fe(CN)_(6)]by in-situ adsorption coupled co-precipitation method.Various data such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer,Fourier transform infrared spectroscope,X-ray photoelectron spectroscope,X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscope,and energy dispersive spectroscopy all verified that abundant KCuFC were uniformly located on the film.The resulting KCuFC/SPSG was used in film separation system.As the solution was fed into the system,the Rb^(+)could be selectively adsorption by KCuFC/SPSG.After the saturation adsorption,0.5 mol·L^(-1)NH_(4)Cl/HCl was fed into the film cell,Rb^(+)could be quickly desorbed by ion-exchange between Rb^(+)and NH_(4)^(+)in the lattice of KCuFC.The purpose of separating and recovering Rb^(+)from the brine can be achieved after the repeated operation.The effects of pH,adsorption time,and interferential ions on the adsorption capacity of Rb^(+)were investigated by batch experiments.The adsorption behavior fits the pseudo-second order kinetic process,while KCuFC has a higher adsorption capacity(Langmuir maximum sorption 165.4 mg·g^(-1)).In addition,KCuFC/SPSG shows excellent selectivity for Rb^(+)even in complex brine systems.KCuFC/SPSG could maintain 93.5%extraction efficiency after five adsorption/desorption cycles.

文摘Objective:To assess whether an adjunctive therapy of Sodium Tanshinone ⅡA Sulfonate Injection(STS)is effective and safe in improving clinical outcomes in patients with coronary heart disease(CHD).Methods:A literature search was conducted through PubMed,the Cochrane Library,Knowledge Infrastructure Databases(CNKI),Chinese Biomedical Literature Database(SinoMed),Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database(VIP)and Wanfang Database up to August 2017.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)comparing STS with placebo or no additional treatments on the basis of standard conventional medicine therapies were included.The outcomes were all-cause mortality,major acute cardiovascular events(MACEs),cardiac function and inflammatory factors.The risk of bias assessment according to the Cochrane Handbook was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included trials.Revman 5.3 software was used for data analyses.Results:A total of 22 RCTs involving 1,873 participants were included.All of the trials used STS as adjunctive treatment to standard conventional medicine therapy.Due to the poor quality of methodologies of most trials,only limited evidence showed that a combination of STS with percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)or thrombolytic therapy(TT)might be more effective on reduction of all cause death rate than TT alone[risk ratio(RR)0.25,95% confidence interval(CI)0.07 to 0.87]or PCI alone(RR 0.42,95%CI 0.04 to 4.36).The results of 6 trials comparing STS plus TT with TT alone showed that the addition of STS significantly reduced the incidence of cardiac shock(RR 0.35,95%CI 0.14 to 0.86),heart failure(RR 0.41,95% CI 0.20 to 0.83)and arrhythmia(RR 0.21,95%CI 0.12 to 0.46).STS combined with TT also showed a superior effect on cardiac function and inflammatory factor.No severe adverse event was reported related to STS.Conclusions:As an adjunctive therapy,STS combined with standard conventional medicine seems to be more effective on all-cause mortality or MACEs than conventional medicine treatment alone with less side effects.However,we cannot make a firm conclusion due to low quality of inclusion trials.Well-designed trials with high methodological quality are needed to validate the effect of STS for CHD patients.

文摘A new chain-like coordination polymer, namely, [CuL]n (1, Na2L = 2-[(2-hydroxy- benzylidene)-amino]-benzenesulfonic acid sodium salt), has been synthesized and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Complex 1 crystallizes in monoclinic system, space group P21/c with a = 9.2296(16), b = 10.4754(18), c = 12.200(2) A, β = 102.392(2)°, V = 1152.0(3)A3, CI3H9CuNOaN, Mr = 338.83, Dc = 1.953 g/cm3, Z = 4, F(000) = 684, p = 2.089 mm-1, the final R = 0.0376 and wR = 0.0956. X-ray diffraction analyses indicate that 1 displays a square-pyramidal metal center with NO4 donor sets. The sulfonate-derived Schiff base serves as a common N,O,O'-tridentate and a unique O-bridged ligand connecting the metals. Dinuclear copper complexes serve as secondary building blocks (SBUs) to construct an unusual 2D coordination network. In the crystal, the components form a stable 3D supramolecular architecture by C-H...O interactions and to-stacking
