[Method] A total of 58 cows were assigned to four groups. The cows in group 1 and group 2 suffered from Qi deficiency and Blood stasis. The cows in group 1 were gavaged with Chanfukang (0.5 g/kg-BW, 5 d) at 12 h post partum, but the cows in group 2 were not treated. The cows in group 3 were healthy and gavaged with Chanfukang (0.4 g/kg.BW, 5 d) at 12 h post partum. Cows in group 4 were healthy control cows. The plasma endothelin (ET) concentration and serum nitric oxide (NO) concentration were determined before and after parturition, respectively. [ Result ] The plasma ET concentration and serum NO concentration were significantly higher in the cows with Qi deficiency and Blood stasis than in the healthy control cows (P 〈 0.05). The NO concentration decreased on Day 10 post partum in the cows with Qi deficiency and Blood stasis, but it was still higher than that in the healthy control cows. After taking Chanfukang for 7 d, the ET concentration and NO concentration decreased, and no significant difference was found between the cows with Qi deficiency and Blood stasis treated with Chanfukang and the healthy control cows. [ Conclusion] Chanfukang may relieve Qi deficiency and Blood stasis of postpartum cows through decreasing plasma ET concentration and serum NO concentration.展开更多

Methods: Ameroid constrictor ring was placed on the first interval of left anterior descending coronary artery to prepare chronic myocardial ischemia model on Chinese miniature swine. Animals were randomly divided into sham group and model group with 10 animals in each group, respectively. The dynamic symptoms observation of the four diagnostic information was collected from 0 to 12 weeks. Echocardiography was employed to evaluate cardiac function and the degree of myocardial ischemia, 2-DE and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) were used to carry out proteomics research on animals. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was applied to identify the relevant differential proteins on chronic myocardial ischemia with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. Results: The preliminary study found that at the 12th week, chronic myocardial ischemia with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome model was established stably. Compared with the sham group, there were 8 different proteins down-regulated, 22 proteins up-regulated significantly. After validated by MALDI- TOF-MS/MS, 11 protein spots were identified. Distinct proteins were mainly associated with energy metabolism and myocardial structural injury, including isocitrate dehydrogenase 3 (NAD+) alpha, NADH dehydrogenase (NAD) Fe-S protein 1, chain A (crystal structure of aidose reductase by binding domain reveals a new Nadph), heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), oxidoreductase (NAD-binding protein), antioxidant protein isoform, cardiac troponin T (cTnT), myosin (myosin light polypeptide), cardiac alpha tropomyosin, apolipoprotein A- I and albumin. Conclusion: Down-regulated energy metabolism disorder mediated by NADH respiratory chain and myocardial injury may be the pathogenesis of myocardial ischemia with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. These proteins may be the potential diagnostic marker(s) for qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome, finally provided new clues for new therapeutic drug target of Chinese medicine展开更多

文摘Objective:Objective:To observe the therapeutic effect of cross-shaped moxibustion on the conception vessel and belt vessel for dysmenorrhea due to qi and blood deficiency.Methods:Taking Shenque(神阙CV8)as the center,up to Zhongwan(中脘CV12),down to Zhongji(中极CV3),and both sides to Daimai(带脉GB26),the above mentioned were treated area.The patient’s umbilicus was filled with the herbal powder for moxibustion and the powder was also scattered in a straight line along the treated area.The two sheets of mulberry paper were put in a cross way on the herbal powder for moxibustion,and the cross-shaped moxibustion box was put on the paper.The ginger paste was put into the box to a height of 3 cm and pressed tightly with a tongue depressor,the margin of the ginger paste should be clinged to the moxibustion box.The moxa cones were put end to end in the groove on the median of the ginger paste and ignited orderly.When the cones were burnt completely,the new cones were used and ignited.Three cones were adopted in succession in each treatment.The treatment was given once a week,and three treatments as one course,the therapeutic effect was evaluated after two courses of treatment.Results:There were 16 cases cured,5 cases effective and 2 cases non-effective in all.The total effective rate was 91.3%.Conclusion:Coss-shaped moxibustion on the conception vessel and belt vessel has sound effect for dysmenorrhea due to qi and blood deficiency.
文摘Objective: To explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Weishu capsule (WSC, 胃舒胶囊) in treating precancerous lesions of chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG).Methods: Seventy five cases of precancerous lesions of CAG were distributed to two groups randomly, the WSC group (45 patients) treated with WSC taken orally and the Weining granule (WNG) group (30 patients) treated with Weining granule orally. The treatment course of both groups were 6 months. The clinical and pathological effects and the changes in scores of atrophy,intestinal metaplasia (IM) and its subgroups, dysplasia, carcinoembryonic antigen and proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression were observed before and after treatment. Results:The total effective rate was 91% and the effective rate of atrophy, IM, dysplasia in the WSC group were 64%, 67% and 65% respectively, and the respective scores were lowered significantly after treatment. Compared with the WNG group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P <0.01, P <0.05). Immunohistochemical test showed that WSC could inhibit the subgroups of IM, circinoembryonic antigen and proliferating cell nuclear antigen expression significantly ( P <0.01). Conclusions: WSC could significantly improve the clinical and pathological changes in the precancerous lesions of CAG. The mechanism might be related to the inducing and promoting effect of WSC on the differentiation and maturity of IM cells and dysplasia cells. WSC could also inhibit and correct the abnormal proliferation of cells.

文摘Objective: To explore the effectiveness related indicators which might help identify the indications of Tongxinluo Capsule (通心络胶囊) and Kangxin Capsule (康欣胶囊) targeting on qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern in Chinese medicine (CM) in the treatment of angina pectoris. Methods: The data from a multicenter, randomized and double-blinded study conducted at 5 centers in China were obtained for the analysis. A total of 239 patients with angina pectoris and CM syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to Tongxinluo Capsule group (119 cases) and Kangxin Capsule group (120 cases). Angina effectiveness and electrocardiogram (ECG) improvement were selected as the therapeutic outcomes. Results: After a 4-week treatment, the effective rates of Tongxinluo Capsule and Kangxin Capsule were 43.70% and 25.00%, respectively (P〈0.05). Serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL) level was found to influence the effectiveness of Tongxinluo Capsule which had higher effective rate in the patients with lower level of LDL. Heart rate was found to influence the effectiveness in the patients treated with Kangxin Capsule which had higher effective rate in the patients with heart rate ≤80 beats/min. Conclusion: LDL level and heart rate were the indicators which help indentify the indications of Tongxinluo Capsule and Kangxin Capsule, respectively, in the treatment of angina pectoris with CM syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis.
