Objective: To investigate the effects of medicated serum prepared by administration of Jinmaitong (JMT), a compound Chinese herbal medicine, on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase p22-phox subunit and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) of rat Schwann cells cultured in high-glucose medium.
Methods: Wistar rats were divided into normal control group (distilled water), JMT (JMT at dose of 1.31 g/(kg·d)) group and vitamin C (vitamin C at dose of 0.08 g/(kg·d)) group to prepare medicated serum. Bilateral sciatic nerves of new born Wistar rats were used to separate Schwann cells. Schwann cells cultured in high-glucose medium were divided into high glucose group (cultured with 50 mmol/L glucose medium), JMT group (cultured with JMT-medicated serum) and vitamin C (VC) group (cultured with VC-medicated serum). Schwann cells cultured in DMEM were used as the normal control. After 48 h culturing, the expression of iNOS was detected by immunofluorescence method and p22-phox mRNA was tested by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction.
Results: The expression levels of iNOS and p22-phox mRNA in the high glucose group were higher than those in the normal control group (P<0.01). Compared with the high glucose group, expressions of iNOS protein and p22-phox mRNA in JMT group were significantly decreased (P<0.01) and JMT-medicated serum had better effect than VC (P<0.01).
Conclusion: JMT-medicated serum can down-regulate the expressions of iNOS protein and NADPH oxidase p22-phox subunit mRNA of Schwann cells cultured in high-glucose medium.

Expression of iNOS in Schwann cells cultured in high-glucose medium tested by immunofluorescence method (Confocal laser scanning microscopy, ×400) Schwann cells were incubated with anti-inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and stained by fluorescein isothiocyanate (green); nuclei were counterstained by propidium iodide (red). A: Control group; B: High glucose (50 mmol/L) group; C: Jinmaitong-containing serum (10%) plus 50 mmol/L glucose group; D: Vitamin C-containing serum (20%) plus 50 mmol/L glucose group."
