Objective: To study the effect of Paeonol on PGI2, TXA2, ET and NO in diabetic rats.

Methods: Streptozocin was used on rats to make diabetic animal models. Different dosage of Paeonol were used on diabetic animal models. PGI2, TXA2, ET and NO were tested after 30 days therapy.

Results: Compared with those in the control group, the level of PGI2 increased and the contents of TXA2 and ET decreased in treatment group. Among them, the high dosage group was more obvious (P < 0.01). But the level of No Had no change.

Conclusion: Paeonol can decrease the ET and TXA2 in diabetic rats, and increase PGI2 in diabetic rats.

Arachidonic acid synergizes with aspirin preventing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and mitigates bleeding risk.

Cardiovasc Res

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Cardiovascular Disease, Clinical Pharmacology Center, Fuwai Hospital, National Center for Cardiovascular Diseases, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, 100037, China.

Aims: The therapeutic efficacy of coronary revascularization is compromised by myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Higher levels of circulating arachidonic acid (AA) are reportedly associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease. The cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway metabolizes AA into prostaglandins (PGs) and the platelet-activating thromboxane A2 (TXA2), which is inhibited by aspirin.

Objective: Explore the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD) combined with somatostatin in the treatment of severe pancreatitis (SAP) patients.

Methods: A retrospective study method was adopted to select 95 patients with SAP who were treated in our hospital from January 2018 to June 2022 for clinical research. Among them, 48 patients received routine treatment+somatostatin (control group), and other 47 patients received ultrasound guided PCD treatment on the basis of the control group (research group).

Article Synopsis
  • - Prostaglandin I, produced by COX in endothelial cells, can cause vasodilation in some blood vessels while paradoxically leading to endothelium-dependent constriction (EDC) in others, particularly in diseases like hypertension, though the effects of PGIS deficiency on EDC and related cardiovascular issues are not well understood.
  • - The study utilized various mouse models, including wild-type and genetically modified knockouts, to measure the impact of PGIS deficiency and assess vasomotor responses, indicating alterations in nitric oxide production and signaling.
  • - Results showed that PGIS deficiency worsened EDC and led to increases in blood pressure and cardiac issues over time, but additional removal of the thromboxane receptor improved vascular function and reduced
