To evaluate the anti-apoptotic efficacy of Qingnao Yizhi formula (，QNYZ) in cultured cerebral cortical neuronal cells (CNCs) and the regulation of the NogoA-Nogo receptor (NgR)/Rho-Rho kinase (ROCK) signaling pathway.<br /><br /> Primary cultured CNCs were randomly divided into the following groups normal control group (N-C), hypoxia-reoxygenation group (H/R), high-dose QNYZ group (Q-H), low-dose QNYZ group (Q-L) butylphthalide (NBP) group, and Y-27632 (a selective ROCK transduction pathway inhibiter) group. Except those in the N-C group, CNCs were placed in hypoxic conditions for 24 h and then in reoxygenation conditions for 24 h. Cell media was changed every 48 h, and various assays were performed on the 7th day. Cell viability was evaluated by measuring mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity, using a CCK-8 assay, in triplicate. Synapsin (SYN) protein concentrations were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. NogoA and RhoA protein expression were evaluated through Western blotting. The gene expression of Nosented study demonstrated that QNYZ exerted anti-apoptotic effects on H/R-induced CNCs, possibly through the modulation of the NogoA-NgR/Rho-ROCK signaling pathway and the promotion of synaptic plasticity in H/R CNCs.<br /><br />The presented study demonstrated that QNYZ exerted anti-apoptotic effects on H/R-induced CNCs, possibly through the modulation of the NogoA-NgR/Rho-ROCK signaling pathway and the promotion of synaptic plasticity in H/R CNCs.<br /><br /> To investigate the efficacy of water fraction from Dioscorea cirrhosa (WF) on oxidative damage and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes induced by H2O2, and to study its mechanism.<br /><br /> Cell viability was measured by the MST assay kit. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and activity of catalase (CAT) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected by biochemical kit. The content of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was assessed by nonfluorescent probe 2' ,7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (DCFH-DA). JC-1 was used to analyze the mitochondrial membrane potential (mtΔΨ) and Annexin-V-FITC/PI staining was applied to assess apoptosis of H9c2 by flow cytometry. Moreover, the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X (Bax), caspase-3, caspase-9, cleaved-caspase-3 and cleaved-caspase -9 proteins was determined by western blot analysis.<br /><br /> WF increased cell viability and decreased LDH leakage in H9c2 cells exposed to H2O2. WF treatment decreased ROS and MDA level, enhanced SOD and CAT activities, improved mtΔΨ and inhibited apoptosis. Western blot analysis demonstrated that the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was increased and the expression cleaved-caspase-3, caspase-3, cleaved-caspase-9 and caspase-9 were decreased in group treated with WF.<br /><br /> WF protects H9c2 myocardial cells on H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis by scavenging ROS, improving antioxidant capacity, protecting mitochondrial and regulating the proteins expression related to apoptosis.<br /><br />WF protects H9c2 myocardial cells on H2O2-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis by scavenging ROS, improving antioxidant capacity, protecting mitochondrial and regulating the proteins expression related to apoptosis.<br /><br /> To investigate the efficacy of Xiaokeping (XKP)-containing serum on the proliferation of high-glucose-induced mesangial cells (MCs) and the potential underlying mechanism.<br /><br /> XKP-containing serum was prepared by the intragastric administration of XKP in rats. HBZY-1 cells were cultured with normal glucose (NC group), high glucose (HG group), and high glucose with different XKP concentrations. Cell proliferation was assessed by the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay, and the cell cycle distribution was detected by flow cytometry. The expression of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK) pathway components in MCs was detected by Western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction.<br /><br /> The MC proliferation level in the high-glucose group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group, and XKP suppressed the HG-induced proliferation of MCs dose dependently. Moreover, flow cytometry revealed that XKP blocked cell cycle progression by inducing cell cycle arrest in G1 phase and inhibiting S phase entry. XKP down-regulated the protein and mRNA expression of p38MAPK in MCs (P &lt; 0.05 vs HG).<br /><br /> The present study demonstrated that XKP-containing serum inhibits high-glucoseinduced proliferation of MCs by causing cell cycle arrest at G1 phase and inhibiting S phase entry. The underlying mechanism involves the down-regulation of the p38MAPK signaling pathway, providing a theoretical basis for the use of XKP to treat diabetic kidney disease.<br /><br />The present study demonstrated that XKP-containing serum inhibits high-glucoseinduced proliferation of MCs by causing cell cycle arrest at G1 phase and inhibiting S phase entry.

The extract also promoted apoptosis, caused cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase, and increased the expression of caspase-3, B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), and Bcl-2-associated X proteins.<br /><br /> The extract from YYYLT might be a potential treatment for human lung and liver cancers.<br /><br />The extract from YYYLT might be a potential treatment for human lung and liver cancers.<br /><br /> To investigate the efficacy and safety of Sodium tanshinone ⅡA sulfonate (STS) plus the conventional treatment on acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients.<br /><br /> We searched several electrical databases and hand searched several Chinese medical journals up to January 2019. [https://www.selleckchem.com/products/liproxstatin-1.html see more] Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing STS plus conventional treatment with conventional treatment were retrieved. Study screening, data extraction, quality assessment, and data analysis were conducted in accordance with the Cochrane standards.<br /><br /> Sixteen trials involving 1383 people were included. The Meta-analysis showed STS combined with conventional treatment was a better treatment option than conventional treatment alone in reducing the risk of mortality, heart failure, arrhythmia and shock. In addition, STS was associated with improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular end diastolic dimension (LVEDD). No significant difference of STS was found on recurrent angina and recurrent AMI. However, the safety of STS remained uncertain for limite data.
