基于Hedgehog信号通路的中医药干预慢性萎缩性胃炎的研究进展

Research about Chinese medicine intervention in chronic atrophic gastritis based on the Hedgehog signaling pathway

:1255-1263
 
慢性萎缩性胃炎是常见的胃癌前病变,不仅治疗过程漫长,治疗难度大,而且患者依从性欠佳。不仅会对患者的生理、心理健康和生活质量造成严重不良的影响,还会给患者家属造成负担,成为临床上不可忽视的难题。但是本病发病机制目前尚未完全明确,临床治疗还未达成共识。文章综述了近10年基于Hedgehog信号通路的中医药干预慢性萎缩性胃炎的研究概况。中医药调控Hedgehog信号通路辨证论治是治疗慢性萎缩性胃炎的一种独具特色的疗法,近年来有关基于Hedgehog信号通路的中医药干预治疗慢性萎缩性胃炎的报道越来越多。文章主要通过遵循疾病本虚标实的病性,以脾胃虚弱为本,瘀血、气滞、湿热、痰浊等为标,探讨选方治疗对慢性萎缩性胃炎的影响,认为中医药联合Hedgehog信号通路实行现代化发展能够有效干预治疗慢性萎缩性胃炎,以期为进一步临床研究与应用提供参考。
Chronic atrophic gastritis,a common precancerous lesion of gastric cancer,requires a long-term treatment and is difficult to cure.Therefore,it usually leads to decreased patient compliance.It will not only have a serious adverse impact on the patient’s physical and mental health and quality of life,but also cause a burden to the patient’s family,which has become a difficult problem that can not be ignored clinically.However,the pathogenesis has not yet been totally clarified,not to mention a consensus on the clinical treatment.This paper reviews the research revolving around Chinese medicine intervention in chronic atrophic gastritis based on the Hedgehog signaling pathway in the last decade.It’s creative therapy of chronic atrophic gastritis that utilizing Traditional Chinese Medicine to regulate and control Hedgehog signaling pathway,which has been increasingly reported in recent years.This paper is based on “deficiency in origin” and “excess in superficiality” principle.Concretely,spleen-stomach vacuity is characterized by deficiency in origin,and excess in superficiality manifests blood stasis,qi stagnation,dampness-heat and phlegm turbidity as excess in superficiality.By this way,the paper explores the effect of prescription selection on chronic atrophic gastritis.It is believed that the modern therapy that combines traditional Chinese medicine with Hedgehog signaling pathway can tackle chronic atrophic gastritis,thus providing a reference for further clinical trials and practices.

Objective This study aims to investigate the effect of metformin on proliferation and migration of MIN6 cells, and to explore the underlying mechanism. Methods The viability of MIN6 cells that were treated with various metformin (1,2,5,10 and 20 mmol/L) was detected by MTT assay. The migration of MIN6 cells was determined by wound-healing assay. Meanwhile, the proteins expression of Bcl-2, Bax, caspase3 and the phosphorylation of AMPK, JNK was detected by western bolt assay. Results The cell viability and the migration of MIN6 cells were decreased when the concentration of metformin above 10 mmol/L(P<0.01). The expression of apoptosis-related protein Bax(P<0.05) and p-AMPK(P<0.05)was up-regulated, anti-apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2 was down-regulated and cleaved caspase3 (P<0.05)was increased after high metformin treatment. At the same time, the phosphorylation of JNK was down-regulated by metformin(P<0.05). Conclusion High concertration of metformin may inhibit the proliferation and migration of MIN6 cells through suppressing the activation of JNK signaling pathway.
