Astragali Radix ( A. Radix ) is the dried root of Astragalus membranaceus var. mongholicus (Bge) Hsiao or Astragalusmembranaceus (Fisch.) Bge., belonging to the family Leguminosae, which is mainly distributed in China. A. Radix hasbeen consumed as a tonic in China for more than 2000 years because of its medicinal eff ects of invigorating the spleenand replenishing qi. Currently, more than 400 natural compounds have been isolated and identifi ed from A. Radix , mainlyincluding saponins, fl avonoids, phenylpropanoids, alkaloids, and others. Modern pharmacological studies have shown thatA. Radix has anti-tumor, anti-infl ammatory, immunomodulatory, anti-atherosclerotic, cardioprotective, anti-hypertensive,and anti-aging eff ects. It has been clinically used in the treatment of tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and cerebrovascularcomplications associated with diabetes with few side eff ects and high safety. This paper reviewed the progress of researchon its chemical constituents, pharmacological eff ects, clinical applications, developing applications, and toxicology, whichprovides a basis for the better development and utilization of A. Radix .

Background: The liver is one of the most common metastatic sites of breast cancer, hepatic metastases developing in 6%-25% of patients with breast cancer and being associated with a poor prognosis. The aim of this study was to analyze the survival and clinical characteristics of patients with hepatic metastases from breast cancer of different molecular subtypes and to investigate the prognostic and predictive factors that effect clinical outcome. Methods: We retrospectively studied the charts of 104 patients with breast cancer hepatic metastases diagnosed at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center from December 1990 to June 2009. Subtypes were defined as luminal A, luminal B, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) enriched, triple-negative (TN). Prognostic factor correlations with clinical features and treatment approaches were assessed at the diagnosis of hepatic metastases. Results: The median survival time was 16.0 months, and the one-, two- three-, four-, five-year survival rates were 63.5%, 31.7%, 15.6%, 10.8%, and 5.4%, respectively. Median survival periods after hepatic metastases were 19.3 months (luminal A), 13.3 months (luminal B), 18.9 months (HER2-enriched), and 16.1 months (TN, P=0.11). In multivariate analysis, a 2 year-interval from initial diagnosis to hepatic metastasis, treatment with endocrine therapy, and surgery were independent prognostic factors. Endocrine therapy could improve the survival of luminal subtypes (P=0.004) and was a favorable prognostic factor (median survival 23.4 months vs. 13.8 months, respectively, P=0.011). Luminal A group of patients treated with endocrine therapy did significantly better than the Luminal A group of patients treated without endocrine therapy (median survival of 48.9 vs. 13.8 months, P=0.003). Conclusions: Breast cancer subtypes were not associated with survival after hepatic metastases. Endocrine therapy was a significantly favorable treatment for patients with luminal subtype.

This study sought to evaluate the effects of Asiatic acid in LPS-induced BV2 microglia cells and 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridine (MPP+)-induced SH-SY5Y cells, to investigate the potential anti-inflammatory mechanisms of Asiatic acid in Parkinson’s disease (PD). SH-SY5Y cells were induced using MPP+ to establish as an in vitro model of PD, so that the effects of Asiatic acid on dopaminergic neurons could be examined. The NLRP3 inflammasome was activated in BV2 microglia cells to explore potential mechanisms for the neuroprotective effects of Asiatic acid. We showed that Asiatic acid reduced intracellular production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and altered the mitochondrial membrane potential to regulate mitochondrial dysfunction, and suppressed the NLRP3 inflammasome in microglia cells. We additionally found that treatment with Asiatic acid directly improved SH-SY5Y cell viability and mitochondrial dysfunction induced by MPP+. These data demonstrate that Asiatic acid both inhibits the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome by downregulating mitochondrial reactive oxygen species directly to protect dopaminergic neurons from, and improves mitochondrial dysfunction in SH-SY5Y cells, which were established as a model of Parkinson’s disease. Our finding reveals that Asiatic acid protects dopaminergic neurons from neuroinflammation by suppressing NLRP3 inflammasome activation in microglia cells as well as protecting dopaminergic neurons directly. This suggests a promising clinical use of Asiatic acid for PD therapy.

Separated overfire air (SOFA) is typically employed in coal-fired boilers with air staged technology to sustain lower NOX emission, and SOFA nozzle angles are crucial adjustment parameters. In this work, the combined effects of SOFA yaw and tilt angles on combustion characteristics were numerically investigated for a 1,000MW dual circle tangentially coal-fired boiler. Numerical results show that the forward increase of the SOFA yaw angle from 0o brings about the enlarged SOFA tangential circle and the gradual appearance of bimodal high-temperature zones at furnace exit. With further tuning SOFA tilt angles vertically, the bimodal high-temperature zones would separate to the two halves of the furnace, inducing a more severe deviation of gas temperature. Besides, the gas residual rotating momentum is strengthened as SOFA yaw angles forward increase, resulting in the enhancement of traction effect in the upper furnace as well as the rise of flame. However, the gas velocity deviation is somewhat eliminated as SOFA rotates reversely. No matter that the SOFA yaw angle increases forward or reversely, the coal burnout would deteriorate with the overly enlarged SOFA tangential circles. Tuning SOFA yaw and tilt angles, respectively, at 5o and 0o can simultaneously guarantee lower CO and NOX emissions.

Exposure to ischemia/reperfusion leads to the development and progression of retinal degenerative diseases. However, the exact mechanisms are not fully understood. In this article, the role of CIC-3 chloride channel in OGD-R (oxygen-glucose deprivation followed by reperfusion)-induced retinal damage was examined. Mouse photoreceptor-derived 661W cells were treated with the CIC-3 antisense oligonucleotide before exposure to OGD-R. Cell viability, mitochondrial membrane potential, cytochrome-c level, DNA fragmentation, caspase activity and protein expression were detected. Pretreatment of 661W cells with CIC- 3 antisense oligonucleotide significantly decreased OGD-R-mediated toxicity. In addition, apoptosis-related biochemical indicators showed that pre-incubation of CIC-3 antisense oligonucleotide would elevate the mitochondrial membrane potential, decrease the release of cytochrome-c as well as formation of DNA fragmentation, and inhibit activities of caspase-3 and caspase- 9 in exogenous OGD-R-treated 661W cells. Moreover, treatment with CIC-3 antisense oligonucleotide changed the expression of apoptosis-related protein. These results suggest that CIC-3 chloride channel mediates OGD-R-induced apoptosis, at least partially through mitochondrial membrane potential pathway and increasing the levels of proapoptotic molecules in 661W cells. CIC-3 chloride channel blockade may provide a new therapeutic approach for preventing ischemia/reperfusion- induced retinal neural damage.
