Microfluidic Chip-LC/MS-based Glycomic Analysis Revealed Distinct N-glycan Profile of Rat Serum.

The rat is an important alternative for studying human pathology owing to certain similarities to humans. Glycomic studies on rat serum have revealed that variations in the N-glycans of glycoproteins correlated with disease progression, which is consistent with the findings in human serum. Therefore, we comprehensively characterized the rat serum N-glycome using microfluidic chip-LC-ESI-QTOF MS and MS/MS techniques.

Chinese herbal medicine granules (PTQX) for children with moderate to severe atopic eczema: study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

Background: Atopic eczema or atopic dermatitis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease. Current conventional medical treatment for moderate and severe atopic eczema is not satisfactory. There is promising evidence derived from randomised clinical trials to support the clinical use of Chinese herbal medicine in the management of atopic eczema.

Chinese herbal medicine for atopic dermatitis: a systematic review.

Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, itching skin disease, and conventional therapies offer inadequate symptom management. Patients with AD are increasingly turning to Chinese medicine.

Objective: We systematically evaluated the clinical evidence of the efficacy and safety of oral Chinese herbal medicine for AD.

[Systematic analysis on clinical safety of Shuxuetong injection].

Objective: To evaluate the clinical adverse drug reactions (ADR) of Shuxuetong Injection (SXTI) comprehensively for its proper use and post-marketing reevaluation.

Method: Electronic searching of the online Chinese and English medical databases were carried out from their inception to Feb. 2012, studies were screened and data were extracted according to inclusion and exclusion criteria; total number of ADR were calculated by study type respectively, ADR incidence rate was calculated by number of ADRs in experimental arm of clinical trials with control groups divided by total number of experimental groups.

[Regulatory effect of procyanidins on the expressions of interferon-gamma, interleukin-12 and transcription factor T-bet mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cell of patients with alopecia areata].

Objective: To investigate the regulatory effect of procyanidins (PC) on the expressions of Th1 type cytokines (IFN-gamma and IL-12) and the transcription factor T-bet mRNA in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) in patients with alopecia areata (AA).

Methods: Above-mentioned expressions were detected using RT-PCR technique in 20 AA patients (8 of mild and 12 of severe degree) and 10 healthy subjects after phytoaemagglutinin (PHA) or PHA + PC stimulation.

Results: After being stimulated by PHA and PHA + PC, in patients with severe AA, the expression of T-bet mRNA was 0.

[Inhibitory impacts of Niaoluqing on urogenital Chlamydia trachomatis in vitro].

Objective: To explore the inhibitory effects of Niaoluqing, an oral liquid of traditional Chinese medicine, on the growth of urogenital chlamydia trachomatis (Ct).

Methods: Niaoluqing's applying concentration was 1 g/ml and 10 serologically untyped strains of Ct from the STD clinic were used. And the inhibitory effects of Niaoluqing on Ct was evaluated by McCoy cell microculture technique in vitro.

[Gene expression profiling of peripheral leukocytes from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus using oligonucleotide DNA microarray].

Objective: To identify the differentially expressed genes in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by comparing the gene expression profiles of peripheral leukocytes between SLE patients and healthy controls.

Methods: The total RNA was extracted from 5 ml peripheral blood of normal subjects and SLE patients, and reversely transcribed in cDNA templates to synthesize cDNA probes labeled for hybridization with the microarray.

Results: Totally 89 over- or under-expressed genes were identified in 9 SLE patients as compared with the controls.

[Antibacterial effect of niaoluqing oral liquid on clinical drug-resistant strains and different serotype strains of Ureaplasma urealyticum in vitro].

Objectives: To study the antibacterial effect of Niaoluqing Oral Liquid (NOL) on clinical drug-resistant strains and 14 serotype strains Ureaplasma Urealyticum (UU).

Methods: Sixty-three clinical strains of UU were detected to determine their serology and antibiotic susceptibilities by the metabolic inhibition test (MIT). Mininum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was used to evaluate the sensitivity of NOL to different serotypes of UU.
