2013, 31(1): 5-10,71. doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1006-0111.2013.01.002
Abstract:
Benzofuran derivatives were a series of attracting heterocyclic compounds with a variety of biological activity. Based on the recently published literatures, these derivatives had shown antitumor, antioxidant, calcium influx blockade, angiotensin II receptor antagonistic, adenosine A1 receptor antagonistic, antifungal, antibacterial and platelet aggregation antagonistic activities. As Benzofuran derivatives had broad activity, which had attracted many research interests. In order to better study of these compounds both in synthesis and biological activity, the review focused on the biological activity and synthetic methods of 2-substituted Benzofuran derivatives in recent years, which would provide valuable information for the development of 2-substituted benzofuran compounds.

Abstract:
The integrity and function of the endothelium played a key role in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The maintenance of normal endothelial function not only depended on pre-existing endothelial cells, but also included the recruitment of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC), and EPC might serve as a therapeutic target of CVDs. Application of natural medicines and their active compounds in the treatment of CVDs, and their effects on EPC had been reported previously. The mechanisms underlying the protection of natural medicines and their active compounds on endothelial progenitor cells were summarized in this paper.

Abstract:
With the development of the living standard, the incidence of gout was rising and the trend of patient age with gout getting younger. Developing high-effective and low-adverse anti-gout drugs was a priority of the research agenda. At present, conventional therapies of gout lean on western medicines. These drugs relieved or treated gout with different mechanisms, but all of them had different side-effects. Recently, more and more researchers started to develop traditional Chinese medicine to treat gout and their effectiveness and the side-effects need further clinical verification. The commonly used anti-gout drugs or new drugs under research including their treatment characteristics, potential hazards and their therapeutic principles at different clinical stages were summarized in this article, especially in some anti-hyperuricemia or anti-gout Chinese Medicine, which gave an effective way to develop new anti-gout drugs.

Abstract:
Statins were a mainstay in the treatment of hyperlipidemia and used in the primary and secondary prevention of coronary artery disease. Recent studies indicated that there were some cholesterol-independent or pleiotropic effects of statins, including improving endothelial function, decreasing oxidative stress, inhibiting inflammation, enhancing the stability of atherosclerotic plaques and used for anticancer therapy. The effects and mechanisms of statins on vascular disease and cancer were reviewed in this paper.

Abstract(2850) PDF (444KB)(171)
Abstract:
Drug-induced hepato-toxicity was an important reason for the liver disease in elderly,which was four times more common than in adults and might include all known liver disorders. Reports related to drug side effects were rare in people >60 years of age group since most clinical trials exclude patients >75~80 years of age. Further clinical studies should be need to investigate hepatic side effects of drugs in elderly patients. The main clinical manifestations and diagnosis of drug-induced liver injury in elderly as well as common drugs (cardiovascular drugs and anti-microbial agents) cause liver injury in clinical conditions were reviewed in this paper.

Abstract:
Objective To investigate the proliferation inhibition of total alkaloids from Pinellia ternate (TATP) in human lung cancer line A549. Methods The proliferation inhibition of human lung cancer cell line A549 treated with TATP was measured with methyl thiazolil tetracolium colorimetic method and plate clone formation assay. The DNA damage of A549 cell induced by TATP was detected with the single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE). Results The proliferation in A549 cell treated with TATP was decreased significantly compared with control group and the proliferation inhibition was positively correlated to the TATP concentration and the reaction time. The difference between the control group and the TATP experimental groups was significant in statistic. Compared with the control group, the tail DNA content, the tail length and the tail movement of the TATP experimental groups were different significantly and presented a dose-effect relationship. Conclusion TATP could inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells in vitro, which might be correlated to the DNA damage induced by TAPT.

Abstract(2802) PDF (485KB)(103)
Abstract:
In the adverse drug reactions, who should be the one to be responsible for patient suffers, which had been controversial for long time. In the judicial practice, law court often judged hospital to take the responsibility based on the fairness doctrine in civil law. A case was analyzed to point out that the trial of cases of the adverse drug reaction should still be identified according to fault principle. The legal advice to safeguard the legitimate rights in the condition of no-mistake subject was puts forward.
