Twelve male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a CG treated with SJD(CG + SJD) and a model group treated with SJD(MG + SJD), both of which were orally administered with SJD(5 g/kg) 2 h after surgery. Blood samples were collected via the tail vein at 10, 20, and 40 min and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 12 h after a single dose of SJD to detect its main components using high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The pharmacokinetic parameters were compared. In the pharmacodynamic experiment, 18 male SpragueDawley rats were randomly divided into a CG, an AP model group(MG), and an SJD treated AP group(SJDG). Serum amylase, lipase, and inflammatory cytokines were measured, and heart, lung, liver, spleen, pancreas, kidney, and intestine tissues were collected for pathological examination.RESULTS The MG + SJD displayed significantly shorter mean residence time(MRT) and higher clearance(CL) for emodin and aloe-emodin; significantly shorter time of maximum concentration and T1/2 and a lower area under curve(AUC) for aloe-emodin; a significantly higher AUC and lower CL for rhein; and longer MRT and lower CL for chrysophanol than the CG + SJD. In the pharmacodynamic experiment, the amylase, interleukin(IL)-6, IL-10, and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α levels in the MG were higher than those in the CG(P < 0.05). After the herbal decoction treatment, the SJDG had higher IL-10 and lower TNF-α levels than the MG(P < 0.05). The MG had the highest pathological scores, and the pathological scores of the lung, pancreas, kidney, and intestine in the SJDG were significantly lower than those in the MG(P < 0.05).CONCLUSION AP may have varying effects on the pharmacokinetics of the major SJD components in rats. SJD might alleviate pathological injuries of the lung, pancreas, kidney, and intestine in rats with AP via regulating pro-and antiinflammatory responses, which might guide the clinical application of SJD for AP treatment.展开更多

Except the control group, the other three groups were used to establish the rat model of GERD combined with IPF by injecting hydrochloric acid into the lower end of esophagus and inhaling diluted bleomycin (5 mg/kg). Rats in the Chinese medicine group (14 g/kg), rats in the western medicine group (4.17 g/kg), rats in the control group and the model group were given the same volume of saline by gavage for 14 d. Morphological and pathological changes of esophageal and lung tissues were observed under light microscope, and T lymphocyte subsets (CD + 3, CD + 4, CD + 8) and the ratio of CD + 4/CD + 8 in peripheral blood were detected by flow cytometry.[Results] Compared with the control group, the pulmonary tissue of the model group showed that the pulmonary interstitium was obviously thickened, the alveoli were mutually fused, the structure was obviously destroyed, the original alveolar structure was disappeared, the inflammatory cell infiltration was around the pulmonary capillaries and the alveolar space, and the basal cell hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration were at the lower end of the esophagus. Compared with the model group, the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration and lung tissue damage in the Chinese medicine group and the western medicine group was significantly reduced, the inflammatory infiltration in the lower esophagus was significantly reduced, and the cell proliferation was reduced. Compared with the control group, the CD + 3, CD + 4, CD + 8, CD + 4/CD + 8 in the peripheral blood of the rats in the model group, the Chinese medicine group and the western medicine group decreased ( P <0.01). Compared with the model group, CD + 3, CD + 4, and CD + 4/CD + 8 increased ( P >0.05, P >0.05, P <0.01), CD + 8 decreased ( P >0.05). Compared with the Chinese medicine group, CD + 3, CD + 4, and CD + 4/CD + 8 increased ( P >0.05, P >0.05, P <0.01) and CD + 8 decreased ( P >0.05) in the western medicine group.[Conclusions] Qishi Shengjiang Guiyuan Granules can effectively improve the inflammation of the lower esophagus and lung tissues of the pulmonary fibrosis rats with GERD and IFP, and regulate the number of T lymphocyte subsets CD + 3, CD + 4, CD + 8 cells and CD + 4/CD + 8 ratio in peripheral blood.展开更多

The study was designed as a cross-over trial in which the subjects took part for 2 d. On the first day, blood samples were collected at baseline and 1-2 h after administration of water, whereas, on the second day, instead of water, the subjects were administered DSWST after the baseline blood sampling. The blood samples collected at baseline and after the administration water or DSWST, were examined for erythrocyte deformability.RESULTS: The elongation index increased significantly after 2 h(P = 0.009) compared to the baseline after DSWST intake. However, after water intake, there was no significant differenceobserved. When comparing the percent change of erythrocyte deformability between DSWST and water, we found that after 2 h of administration,DSWST improved erythrocyte deformability significantly compared to water(P < 0.001).CONCLUSION: DSWST has a transient effect on erythrocyte deformability in normal subjects.展开更多
