“…The fiber diameter was not significantly affected by the solution feeding rate. The underlying principles for these effects are postulated and explained when PV electrospinning was extensively studied [27]. It was shown in this study that the effect of applied voltage on the average fiber diameter was not the same for PV electrospinning and pseudo‐NV electrospinning.…”

Poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) was electrospun into ultrafine fibrous nonwoven mats. Different from the conventional electrospinning process, which involves a positively charged conductive needle and a grounded fiber collector (i.e., positive voltage (PV) electrospinning), pseudo-negative voltage (NV) electrospinning, which adopted a setup such that the needle was grounded and the fiber collector was positively charged, was investigated for making ultrafine PHBV fibers. For pseudo-NV electrospinning, the effects of various electrospinning parameters on fiber morphology and diameter were assessed systematically. The average diameters of PHBV fibers electrospun via pseudo-NVs were compared with those of PHBV fibers electrospun via PVs. With either PV electrospinning or pseudo-NV electrospinning, the average diameters of electrospun fibers ranged between 500 nm and 4 lm, and they could be controlled by varying the electrospinning parameters. The scientific significance and technological implication of fiber formation by PV electrospinning and pseudo-NV electrospinning in the field of tissue engineering were discussed. POLYM. ENG.

“…Most cases in the low-dose puerarin group manifested with endometrial thickening and the formation of atherosclerotic plaque. After Oil Red O staining, the percentage of plaque area in the total aortic area was statistically analysed 16 . There were significant differences between the high-dose puerarin group, middle-dose puerarin group, simvastatin group and the model group (P<0.05), while the difference between the low-dose puerarin group and model group was not significant (Table 3).…”

Background. Cardiovascular disease is a major health issue worldwide, which has been well treated by the extracts of traditional herbs. Radix Puerariae, the dried root of the leguminous plant Pueraria lobata (Willd.) Ohwi, is a delicious vegetable in some southern provinces of China. Puerarin has also been widely used to treat human diseases, but few controlled studies are available. Aim. To determine the anti-atherosclerotic effects of puerarin on fat diet-induced atherosclerosis (AS) in rabbits.Methods. An AS model was established by feeding 60 rabbits a high-fat diet and randomly dividing them into 6 groups: (1) normal control, (2) a model group (3) the statin, simvastatin and groups (4), (5) and (6) received 3 different amounts of puerarin. The fasting sera of all animals were collected before and after 90 days treatment to determine the levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) and high density lipoproteincholesterol (HDL-C). The aortas were pathomorphologically examined. PCNA and PDGF-A protein levels were assessed by Western blot. Results. On the 90th day, the levels of TC, TG and LDL-C were significantly lower in high-and middle-dose puerarin groups and simvastatin group than in the model group (P<0.05), and the HDL-C level was higher. The percentages of plaque area to the total aortic area differed significantly for high-and middle-dose puerarin groups, simvastatin group and model group (P<0.05). Whole blood viscosity increased in the high-fat diet groups, while those in the treatment groups (except for the low-dose puerarin group) were significantly lower than those in the model group (P<0.05). PCNA and PDGF-A protein expression levels of rabbit aorta were low in the normal group. Protein expression levels in the groups fed the high-fat diet were significantly increased (P<0.05), but those in the high-dose puerarin group and simvastatin group were significantly decreased compared with the model group (P<0.05). Conclusions. Puerarin inhibits the formation and development of AS plaque and suppresses the migration and reproduction of vascular smooth muscle cells by decreasing PCNA and PDGF-A expressions in the rabbit. This is encouraging in terms of cardiovascular disease prevention/treatment.
