To observe the effect of Shenlong Oral Liquid（SLOL）combined with radiotherapy in treating nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: Effects of the combined therapy, including clinical effects, changes of cellular immunity and side effects, in treating 60 NPC patients (in the treated group) were observed and compared with those of the other 60 patients treated with radiotherapy alone (in the control group). Results: (1)The side effects of radiation in the treated group were lower than those in the control group significantly (P＜0.05). (2) The short-term remission rate of nasopharyngeal and neck metastatic tumor in the two groups was not significantly different (P＞0.05). (3) The dose for complete remission of nasopharyngeal and neck tumor in the treated group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.01). (4) No change of T-lymphocyte subsets was found in the treated group after treatment, but in the control group , OKT3,OKT4,and OKT4/OKT8 ratio were markedly decreased (P＜0.05). (5) The survival rate in the treated group was higher than that in the control group, but with no statistical significance (P=0.0518). Conclusion: The combined therapy of NPC with SLOL and radiotherapy is able to reduce side-effect of radiotherapy, improve the cellular immunity, reduce the dose of radiation for tumor remission and enhance the therapeutic effect of radiotherapy.

To observe the effects of essential garlic oil (EGO) on vascular cell adhesive molecule-1 (VCAM-1) expression of endothelial cells and monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion rate induced by interleukin-1α (IL-1α). Methods: Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were isolated by trypsin digestion method and co-cultured with IL-1α or EGO+IL-1α in the absence or presence of U937 monocyte. Monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion rate was examined with reverted microscope. VCAM-1 expression of endothelial cells was measured by ACAS 570 confocal microscope, and the data were presented as mean fluorescent intensity. Results: EGO significantly inhibited IL-1α-induced endothelial expression of VCAM-1, and thus markedly decreased monocyte-endothelial cell adhesion rate. Conclusion: EGO has the effect on antagonizing adhesion of monocyte and vascular endothelial cell, which might be due to its inhibition on adhesive molecular expression on the surface of endothelial cells.

To study the therapeutic effect of Chinese herbal medicines (CHM) in treating ascites and to elucidate its mechanism in regulating the lymphatic stomata and promoting the absorption of ascites from the peritoneal cavity. Methods: Using scanning electron microscope (SEM), computerized image processing and quantitative analytic assay, the effect of CHM extract, consisting of Atractylodes macrocephala, Salvia miltiorrhiza, Codonopsis pilosula, Alismatis orientale and Leonurus heterophyllus, was studied. Results: Intraperitoneal injection of nitric oxide (NO) supplier (Sodium nitroprussiate) or CHM administration could cause the average area of lymphatic stomata obviously enlarged (P＜0.05), and the numbers of opening stomata significantly increased (P＜0.01) in normal healthy mice. When L-notroarginine, a NO synthetase suppressor, was injected after CHM administration, the regulating effect of CHM on lymphatic stomata was inverted obviously, i.e. the average area and the density of lymphatic stomata were markedly reduced (P＜0.01). Conclusion: CHM might treat ascites through increasing the endogenous NO concentration to open the lymphatic stomata and in turn to conduct the peritoneal water through lymphatic path.

To observe the relationship between TCM Syndrome-type and insulin resistance (ISR) in coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods: Fifty patients were divided into 3 groups according to the Syndrome Differentiation-typing in TCM, the Heart blood stasis (HBS) Syndrome group, the Phlegm-Turbid stagnation (PTS) Syndrome group and both Qi-Yin Deficiency (QYD) Syndrome group. The fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting blood insulin (Ins), insulin antibody (IAA), islet cell antibody (ICA), glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody (GAD-Ab) and related blood lipid parameters in patients were determined and insulin sensitive index (ISI) was calculated simultaneously. Then the above-mentioned data were compared with those determined in 20 healthy control subjects. Results: The levels of FBG and Ins in CHD group were higher than those in the healthy control group significantly (P＜0.05), but ISI level was obviously lower (P＜0.01). Moreover, the positive percentage of IAA (40%) was higher in CHD group than that in the control group (5%) significantly (P＜0.01). Comparison between the 3 TCM Syndrome-type groups and the control group showed that ISI level in HBS and PTS group was obviously lower than that in the control and the QYD (P＜0.05) respectively, and the IAA positive percentage in the former 2 groups (50%, 47.37%) was higher than that in the latter two (5%,P＜0.01 and 15.38%, P＜0.05) markedly. While Ins level increased only in the HBS group (P＜0.05). Besides, patients of HBS and PTS Syndrome were accompanied by lipid metabolic disturbance. Conclusion: ISR presents in part of CHD patients particularly in those with HBS and PTS Syndrome, which was partly due to the existence of serum IAA in patients.
