The hemolytic anemia mouse model was established by i.p. of phenylhydrazine (PHZ). Changes of the indices including red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (HCT) were determined by blood analyzer, and reticulocytes were observed by brilliant cresol blue staining during administration. Bone marrow injured mouse model was established by i.p. of cytoxan (CY) and chloramphenicol (CH), and the therapeutic effect was observed by H-E staining. The indices of APIC treated groups with the medium and high doses were higher than those of the model group significantly. Moreover, the Hb and HCT were restored to the normal level after drug treatments. In addition, APIC can promote the proliferation and differentiation of reticulocytes obviously in the early stage of anemia mice, decrease adipose cell proliferation in bone marrow of injured mice and hasten the recuperation. In conclusion, APIC has therapeutic efficacy on hemolytic anemia and bone marrow injury caused by chemicals, which is reported for the first time.展开更多

The presence of paravalvular leak after surgery and the necessity of using oral anticoagulants causes that anemia emerges as a severe and potentially fatal issue.展开更多

Methods; The samples were collected from the family members of a patient with P5'N- I deficiency. The enzyme activities were measured by UMP method and the enzyme proteins were quantified by ELISA while the morphology of peripheral blood cells was observed. Results: The enzyme contents reduced as their enzyme activities decreased in the family especially in four members. There was a significant positive correlation(r =0. 955) between the activity and the content of P 5'N- I . The count of the stippling cell was varied in the family. Conclusion.- One of the reasons for congenital P5' N- I deficiency might be the deficiency in the enzyme content. The morphology of peripheral blood erythrocyte may be an assistant diagnotic index. The P5'N- I activities and contents were measured simultaneously may be a effective method in clinic diagnosis.展开更多
