[Effect and mechanism of Bovis Calculus on ulcerative colitis by inhibiting IL-17/IL-17RA/Act1 signaling pathway].

This study aimed to elucidate the effect and underlying mechanism of Bovis Calculus in the treatment of ulcerative colitis(UC) through network pharmacological prediction and animal experimental verification. Databases such as BATMAN-TCM were used to mine the potential targets of Bovis Calculus against UC, and the pathway enrichment analysis was conducted. Seventy healthy C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a blank group, a model group, a solvent model(2% polysorbate 80) group, a salazosulfapyridine(SASP, 0.

[Protective effects of three kinds of borneol on different brain regions in acute cerebral ischemia/reperfusion model rats].

This study compared the ameliorating effects of L-borneol, natural borneol, and synthetic borneol on the injury of different brain regions in the rat model of acute phase of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(I/R) for the first time, which provides a reference for guiding the rational application of borneol in the early treatment of ischemic stroke and has important academic and application values. Healthy specific pathogen-free(SPF)-grade SD male rats were randomly assigned into 13 groups: a sham-operation group, a model group, a Tween model group, a positive drug(nimodipine) group, and high-, medium-, and low-dose(0.2, 0.

The cardiotoxicity of cetuximab as single therapy in Chinese chemotherapy-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer patients.

The cardiac safety of cetuximab, particularly as single approach, has not been investigated extensively. This trial was designed to evaluate the cardiac safety of cetuximab as salvage monotherapy in Chinese chemotherapy-refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients.Cetuximab was administrated at an initial dose of 400 mg/mon day 1 (week 1), followed by a maintenance dose of 250 mg/m on day 1 of each 7-day cycle.

COD and Color Removal from Real Dyeing Wastewater by Ozonation.

Ozonation of real dye wastewater for removal of color and COD reduction covering a wide range in operating parameters forms the scope of the present work. The influence of parameters such as influent pH, ozone flow rate and initial effluent concentration on ozonation efficiency has been critically examined. It has been observed from the present investigation that a maximum of COD removal efficiency of 92.

Downregulation of cell cycle-related proteins in ovarian cancer line and cell cycle arrest induced by microRNA.

Objective: The effect of miR-449 and miR-34 on the growth, cell cycle and target gene expressions of ovarian cancer cell line SKOV3 and SKOV3-ipl was discussed.

Method: Real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR was employed to detect the expressions of miR-449a/b and miR-34b, c in SKOV3 and SKOV3-ipl cells. The two miRNAs were successfully expressed in SKOV3-ipl cells by transfection.

Advanced treatment of sodium acetate in water by ozone oxidation.

Ozone oxidation is an advanced oxidation process for treatment of organic and inorganic wastewater. In this paper, sodium acetate (according to chemical oxygen demand [COD]) was selected as the model pollutant in water, and the degradation efficiencies and mechanism of sodium acetate in water by ozone oxidation were investigated. The results showed that the ozone oxidation was an effective treatment technology for advanced treatment of sodium acetate in water; the COD removal rate obtained the maximum value of 45.

A first-principle study of one-dimensional carbon atomic chain inserted single-wall carbon nanotubes.

Using first principles calculations, we investigate the atomic and electronic structure of carbon nanowires (CNWs) as the carbon chain inserted into single wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). It indicates that the (5,5) CNW system exhibits metallic character, however, the insertion of carbon chain can transit a semi-conducting (9,0) SWCNT into a metallic.

[Fluorescence spectroscopy determination of lomefloxacin by charge transfer complex formation with chloranilic acid].

Charge-transfer complex was formed between LMX as the donor and Chloranilic Acid (CL) as the acceptor has been studied by fluorimetry. It was shown that the n-pi complex can be formed at ambient temperature, which can emit, which strong fluorescence. Different variables and parameters affecting the reactions were studied and optimized.
