摘要:In recent years, study of functional genes has become a hot area of research in medicinal plants. Research contents include gene cloning, characterization, polymorphism analysis, expression pattern analysis and relationship analysis between functional genes and metabolic pathway. The roots of Glycyrrhiza uralensis are widely used in China. Besides the medicinal value, they are also used as industrial raw materials and tobacco additives. Among all of the natural active components glycyrrhizic acid is believed to be the marker compound to characterize the quality of this Chinese herb. Many studies have shown that glycyrrhizic acid possesses various biological activities, such as anti-inflammatory, antiturmor and immune-stimulating activities. In this paper the cloning, characterization and polymorphism of functional genes involved in glycyrrhizic acid biosynthesis in G. uralensis were analyzed. This work is significant for further studies concerned with strengthening the efficacy of G. uralensis by means of improved glycyrrhizic acid content and providing research ideas for functional gene studies in other medicinal plants.

摘要:Objective: To investigate the influence of Shugan Jieyu capsule(SGJY) on learning and memory ability in model mice with Alzheimer's disease (AD). Method: Seventy-two Kunming (KM) mice were randomly divided into six groups such as normal group, model group, huperzine A(Hup A) group(0.07 mg·kg-1)and SGJY groups (480, 240, 120 mg·kg-1). The mice were gavaged once a day for 14 days, then induced by scopolamine hydrobromide (ip, 3 mg·kg-1) except normal group. The effect of SGJY was studied via Morris water maze test and the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) in plasma and brain tissue were detected. Randomly selected 10 non-APPswe transgenic mice were as normal group, other 50 APPswe transgenic mice with high expression of presenilin (PS) and amyloid precusor protein (APP) were divided into five groups as above, the mice were gavaged once a day for 30 days, then the effect of SGJY on learning and memory ability was evaluated by step-down test and water maze test. Result: Compared with normal groups, the levels of latencies and total distances before escaping onto the security platform increased significantly(P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with model groups, SGJY groups in various dosage (480, 240, 120 mg·kg-1) could shorten the latency period to escape from electric shock. In Morris water maze test, three groups of SGJY could shorten latencies and total distances before escaping onto the security platform at different levels. The effect was the most obvious in the group of high and middle dose SGJY(P<0.01), which showed dose-effect relationship. Meanwhile, we also found that the SGJY of three different doses could significantly decrease the levels of MDA and increase that of T-AOC in brain tissue (P<0.01). Conclusion: SGJY has marked effect of improving the learning and memory abilities of AD model mice.

摘要:Objective: To study the efficacy and safety of Shenqi Fuzheng injection(SQFZI) combined with radiotherapy in treating non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Method: Systematic literature searches were performed in PubMed, CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang Data from database inception to May 2014.Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) of SQFZI combined with radiotherapy (versus radiotherapy alone) in any language were included. No language limitation was applied.Two reviewers separately assessed the quality of each included study and extracted the data. Meta-analysis was carried out according to the method provided by the Cochrane Collaboration with RevMan5.2 software. Result: A total of 7 RCTs were included. The Meta-analysis showed that the combination of SQFZI and radiotherapy couldimprove the curative effect [OR=2.74, 95%CI(1.85,4.05), P<0.000 01], improve the quality of life [OR=4.85, 95%CI (2.65, 8.89), P<0.000 01], improve clinical symptom[OR=4.23, 95%CI(2.33, 7.69), P<0.000 01], reduce myelosuppression [OR=0.28, 95%CI(0.15, 0.51), P<0.000 1], radiation pneumonitis [OR=0.34, 95%CI(0.20, 0.58), P<0.000 1] and radiation esophagitis[OR=0.40, 95%CI (0.27, 0.61), P<0.000 1] as compared with radiotherapy alone. Conclusion: The current results indicates that SQFZI can improve the curative effect on NSCLC patients, improve the quality of life, improve clinical symptom and reduce the adverse effect of radiotherapy. These findings require further confirmation with rigorously controlled trials.  
摘要:Objective: To explore the rules among external therapy and food therapy of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in treating diabetes by applying text mining technology. Method: The relative literatures were collected from Sinomed database (CBM), and an Access database was established. The data was processed by SQL using frequency statistical method based on sensitive keywords hierarchical algorithm, and noise was manually removed according to the medical professional knowledge. The rules among external therapy and food therapy of TCM were deeply analysed and comprehensively displayed by the frequency of one-dimensional and two-dimensional network diagram. Result: The results showed that the most common external therapies of diabetes were acupuncture (frequency 2 079),phototherapy (frequency 1 237), external application with TCM (frequency 348), acupiont injection (frequency 327) and massage (frequency 207) in turn. The most common food therapies were followed by panax notoginseng (frequency 446), Chinese yam (frequency 262), lemon (frequency 234) and wolfberry (frequency 143). Conclusion: Text mining, together with artificial reading for anti-noising, is an useful approach in exploring the clinical rules of TCM in treating diabetes. However, its exact mechanism and certain indication in treating diabetes is worthy of further study.
