Methods: Standardized radial fracture was performed in 120 Wistar rats. The model rats were randomized into four groups: Group A was fed with DS 9403, group B injected with Staphylococcus aureus , group C with normal saline administration, and group D with RSM injection. The treatment began at the first day of fracture. The rats were sacrificed on the day 25, 39 and 50 separately in batches and their intact radii were removed by dissection for detecting load and stress of three point bending test with autograph universal material testing machine (Shimazu, Japan). Results: The parameters of load in DS 9403 treated group on the 39th day and that of stress at 25th, 39th and 50th day were (6.20±1.32)N, (5.71±3.58)N/mm 2, (8.27±2.42)N/mm 2 and (66.25±26.21)N/mm 2 respectively, which were significantly higher than those in other groups, P <0.05. Conclusion: DS 9403 has the action of increasing the strength of fracture broken end.展开更多

OBJECTIVE: To observe and compare the protective effects, synergistic action and mechanisms of ultrashortwave (USW) and radix salviae miltiorrhizae (RSM) on the focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injuries in rats. DESIGN: Randomized controlled animal study SEI-FING: Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, First Hospital affiliated to China Medical University MATERIALS: A total of 160 healthy Wistar rats of both genders and aged 18-20 weeks weighing 250-300 g of clean grade were selected in this study. 5 mL/ampoule RSM injection fluid was produced by the First Pharmaceutical Corporation of Shanghai (batch number: 011019, 0.01 mug). The USW therapeutic device was produced by Shanghai Electronic Device Factory with the frequency of 40.68 MHz and the maximal export power of 40 W. The first channel of power after modulation was 11 W. METHODS: The experiment was carried out in the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of the First Hospital affiliated to China Medical University from May 2002 to January 2003. Focal ischemia-reperfusion model was established in rats by reversible right middle cerebral artery occlusion with filament. Right cerebral ischemia was for 2 hours and then with 24 hours reperfusion. The scores of neurological deficits were evaluated by 0 to 4 scales. After surgery, 64 successful rats models were divided into four groups according to digital table: control group, USW group, RSM group and RSM + USW group with 16 cases in each group. Rats in control group were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of saline (0.1 mL/g); rats in USW group were given small dosage of USW on head for 10 minutes at 6 hours after reperfusion; rats in RSM group were intraperitoneally injected with 0.01 mL/g RSM solution at 30 minutes before reperfusion; rats in RSM + USW group were intraperitoneally injected with 0.01 mL/g RSM parenteral solution at 30 minutes before reperfusion and given small dosage of USW on head for 10 minutes once at 6 hours after reperfusion; sixteen rats in sham operation group did not receive any treatment. All 80 rats were taken brains at 24 hours after reperfusion to measure wet and dry weights to calculate water content: Cerebral water content (%) = (1-dry/wet weight) × 100%. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was measured by hydroxylamine method and malondialdehyde (MDA) content was measured by TBA photometric method. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES : Cerebral water content, SOD activity and MDA content RESULTS: All 160 rats except 80 failing in modeling were involved in the final analysis. (① The cerebral water content of left hemisphere made no significant difference (P 〉 0.05). The cerebral water content of right hemisphere in the control group and the three treatment groups was obviously higher than that of the sham operation group [(81.26±0.77)%, (79.74±0.68)%, (79.76±0.81)%, (79.61±0.79)%, (77.43±0.61)%, P 〈 0.05]. The cerebral water content of right hemisphere in the three treatment groups was obviously lower than that of the control group (P〈 0.05). There was no significant difference among the three treatment groups (P 〉 0.05). ② Compared with the control group, SOD activity (right) of the control group decreased obviously (P 〈 0.05), while MDA content increased obviously (P 〈 0.05). SOD activity in the three therapeutic groups increased obviously, while MDA content decreased obviously (P 〈 0.05); there was no significant difference among the three treatment groups (P 〉 0.05). CONCLUSION: ① USW and RSM therapy have neuroprotective effects against focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injuries by means of decreasing cerebral water content and MDA and increasing the activity of SOD. ② Synergistic action was not observed between these two therapeutic methods.展开更多

The results showed that HECCM could induce enhancement of the enzymatic activity of mitochondria, increase of the nucleic DNA content and increases of the 3H-TdR and 3H-proline incorporations in PASMCs. The 3H-proline incorporation in PASMCs cultured in HECCM was 1.83 times as much as that cultured in normoxic endothelial cell conditioned medium (NECCM). Compared with the control, Chinese herb medicine RSM could inhibit the proliferation of PASMCs cultured in HECCM and decrease the 3H-prolinc incorporation in PASMCs cultured in both HECCM and NECCM (P< 0.001). However, RSM had no ef fects on the nucleic DNA content and 3H-TdR incorporation into DNA of PASMCs cultured in NECCM. It suggests that hypoxia may stimulate the endothelia to synthesize and secrete some cytokines which can stimulate the proliferation and the synthesis of collagen of PASMCs and RSM can inhibit this process.展开更多

Methods: Using collagenase and pancreatin digested rat cardiac tissue assay to isolate cardiac fibroblasts (FB). Different dosage of TMP, RSM and norepinephrine were used to study their effects on the collagen synthesis and proliferation of cultured cardiac FB. Results: Compared with the control group, moderate or high dosage TMP and RSM could significantly inhibit the collagen synthesis and the proliferation of cultured cardiac FB. Moreover, low-dose TMP (50 mg/L) and low-dose RSM (3 g/L) could antagonize the collagen synthesis and the proliferation of cultured cardiac FB stimulated by NE (500μg/L). Conclusion: Both TMP and RSM can inhibit the collagen synthesis and proliferation of cultured cardiac FB processes.The mechanisms of these effects might be correlated to their Ca++ antagonistic action.

Methods: Effect of RSM on SMMC 7721 cell membrane intercellular adhesive molecule 1 (ICAM 1) expression was observed by immunofluorescence flow cytometry; effect on invasive ability and of SMMC 7721 cell and the detachment of which attached to fibronectin (FN) by cell migration experiment; effect on adhesion of SMMC 7721 cell with FN by MTT method and effect on adhesion between 7721 7721, 7721 lymphocyte and 7721 endothelial cell by cell adhesion experiment. LCI D20 human liver cancer metastasis model, after hepatectomy, was used to observe the effect of RSM on recurrence and metastasis of liver carcinoma in nude mice. Results: ICAM 1 expression in SMMC 7721 cells incubated with RSM was significantly lower than that in cells did not treated with RSM. RSM could inhibit the invasive ability of SMMC 7721 cell and made the cells already attached to FN exfoliated. It could also inhibit the adhesion of 7721 7721, 7721 lymphocyte and 7721 endothelial cell. And RSM showed preventive and therapeutic effect on intrahepatic and remote metastasis/recurrence of early and late human post hepatectomy liver cancer in nude mice. Conclusion: RSM could inhibit the invasion and adhesion of SMMC 7721 cell and could also prevent and inhibit metastasis and recurrence of human liver cancer after hepatectomy in nude mice.展开更多
