摘要:Objective: To investigate the relationship between HPLC fingerprints and hepatoprotective activity of ethyl acetate extract from Herpetospermum caudigerum. Method: Fingerprints of different combination of ethyl acetate extract from H. caudigerum were established by HPLC and were evaluated by hierarchical clustering analysis. In addition,nine samples of ethyl acetate fraction from H. caudigerum with different chemical composition were acquired by uniform design and silica gel column chromatography.The hepatoprotective activity of H. caudigerum were evaluated with models of immunologic liver injury in mice,and the models were induced by injecting bacille calmette-guerin (BCG) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) through the tail vein.The spectrum-effect relationship between HPLC fingerprints and hepatoprotective activity was investigated by grey relational analysis and partial least squares regression analysis (PLSR). Result: There were significantly differences in HPLC fingerprints of 9 samples,and 16 common characteristic peaks were detected in HPLC chromatography.Compared with the model group,the treatment with 9 samples restored the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and decreased the content of malonaldehyde (MDA) in BCG/LPS-induced immunological liver injury mice.The spectrum-efficacy relationship found that the main anti-immunological liver injury effect was mostly due to herpetin,herpetotriol,herpetrione,herpetone and herpetal. Conclusion: Each sample exhibits good activity on anti-liver injury,and that some lignan constituents, such as herpetin,herpetrione,herpetotriol,herpetone and herpetal, might be the main contributive components in H. caudigerum to hepatoprotective activity.

As compared with the model group, the escape latency and the time to first reach the original platform quadrant were significantly reduced in galanthamine group and compound Rehmanniae Radix groups (P < 0.05). As compared with galanthamine group, the time to first reach the original platform quadrant was reduced in compound Rehmanniae Radix high dose group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemisty results showed that, positive expression was in cytoplasm for Axin and in nucleus for Cyclin D1.Western blot and Real-time PCR test results showed that, as compared with the normal group, the protein and mRNA expression levels of Axin in hippocampus were significantly increased in the model group (P < 0.01), as compared with the model group, the protein and mRNA expression levels of Axin in hippocampus were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), while the protein and mRNA expression levels of Cyclin D1 were significantly increased in compound Rehmanniae Radix groups and the galanthamin group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Compound Rehmanniae Radix can improve the ability of learning and memory in AD rats, and its mechanism may be closed related to reducing the expression of Wnt pathway related proteins Axin and enhancing the expression of Cyclin D1 in hippocampus of AD rats.  
摘要:Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Sijunzi decoction in treatment of 2, 4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced ulcerative colitis and investigate its effect on expression of tight junction protein Occludin in mucosal epithelial cells. Method: SD rats were divided into normal group, model group (TNBS-induced colitis), Sijunzi Tang(SJZT) high dose group, middle dose group and low dose group (crude drug 5.6, 2.8, 1.4 g·kg-1), and Salazosulfapyridine treatment group (SASP, 0.4 g·kg-1), n=8 in each group(P < 0.05). Experimental ulcerative colitis models were induced by rectal instillation of TNBS in all groups except normal group. 24 h after modeling, drugs were given intragastrically continuously for ten days according to their respective doses in each group. Their diet conditions, mental state, disease activity index (DAI) scores, stool frequency and body weight were observed. 24 h after the last administration, the rats were sacrificed and their colon was taken. The pathological changes of colonic mucosa were visually observed and their scores of colon macroscopic damage index (CMDI) were recorded. Lesion areas were taken for HE staining, and colon tissues damage index (TDI) was evaluated under light microscopy,expression of Occludin proteins in colon of the rats was detected by immunohistochemical method. Result: DAI scores, CMDI scores and TDI scores in model group were higher than those in control group,Occludin protein expression was lower than in control group. However, SJZT and SASP treatment could reduce damage to mucosa of TNBS-induced UC models, increase the expression of tight junction proteins Occludin, inhibit the increase of colonic permeability, and protect the colonic mucosal barrier function(P < 0.05). Conclusion: SJZT can increase Occludin protein expression and promote the recovery of colonic mucosal barrier function in UC rats, which may be one of its mechanism for treatment of colitis.

摘要:Objective: To observe the effects of carboxymethylpachymaran (CMP) on the polarization of macrophages. Method: In vivo, Balb/c mice were injected intraperitoneally with CMP (100 mg·kg-1) as CMP group or saline solutions as control group once daily for 5 consecutive days, and phagocytosis of peritoneal macrophages were investigated. In vitro, RAW264.7 cells were treated with CMP (400, 800, 1 600 mg·L-1), lipopolysaccharides (LPS, 0.1 mg·L-1) and incubated for 48 h. The expression of CD86 molecule on cells was tested by flow cytometry. Fluorescent microspheres phagocytosed by RAW264.7 cells were analyzed under fluorescence microscope. Nitric oxide (NO) was detected by Griess reagent, and interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-10 (IL-10), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) were investigated by Cytometric Bead Array (CBA). Result: The results in vivo showed that both the phagocytic rate and phagocytic index of peritoneal macrophages in CMP group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The results in vitro showed that the expression of CD86 on macrophages in CMP and LPS-treated groups were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The results by fluorescence microscope showed that the number of macrophages phagocytosing more than 2 microspheres in CMP and LPS-treated groups were more than those in the control group. Flow cytometric analysis showed that both the phagocytic rate and phagocytic index of RAW264.7 cells in CMP and LPS-treated groups were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). LPS significantly induced NO, IL-6, IL-10, MCP-1 and TNF secretions in RAW264.7 cells. On the contrary, all CMP-treated groups did not show the secretions of NO, IL-6, IL-10, MCP-1 and TNF in RAW 264.7 cells, with lower secretions of NO, MCP-1 and TNF than those in the control group. Conclusion: CMP can stimulate the activation and phagocytosis of macrophage, but cannot induce the production of inflammation cytokines, which suggests that CMP might promote the M2 phenotype polarization of macrophages.  
摘要:Objective: To observe the treatment efficacy of Allicin and effects on tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), sterol regulatoryelement binding protein-1c (SREBP-1c) protein levels in model rats of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and to investigate the molecular mechanism. Method: seventy-six male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=12) and model group (n=64). NAFLD models were established by high fat diet, and the rats in model group were further randomly divided into model group, fenofibrate group (50 mg·kg-1·d-1), allicin low dose, middle dose and high dose groups (10, 30, 60 mg·kg-1·d-1), n=12 in each group. The rats in fenofibrate group and allicin groups received corresponding doses of drugs by ig, and the rats in normal group and model group were given with the same volume of normal saline. After 4 weeks of intervention, the animals were sacrificed. The contents of total cholesterol (TG), triglyceride (TC), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in serum and liver tissues were detected. The pathological changes of liver tissues were observed by haematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. TNF-α and SREBP-1c protein expression levels in liver tissues were detected by immunohistochemistry. Result: As compared with the normal group, the TG and TC levels in serum and liver tissues, ALT and AST levels in liver tissues, as well as TNF-α and SREBP-1c protein expression levels in liver tissues were significantly increased in rats of model group (P < 0.05,P < 0.01). As compared with the model group, the TG and TC levels in serum and liver tissues, ALT and AST levels in liver tissues, as well as TNF-α and SREBP-1c protein expression levels in liver tissues were significantly decreased in rats of fenofibrate group, allicin low dose, middle dose and high dose groups (P < 0.05, P < 0.01) Conclusion: Allicin has lipid lowering and liver protective effect in NAFLD model rats induced by high fat diet, and the mechanism may be relevant to reducing the protein expression levels of TNF-α and SREBP-1c.

With the application of Lipinski's five rules,composite technology of molecular two dimensional (2D) similarity and three dimensional similarity (3D),as well as Glide molecular docking technology,virtual screening of the candidate AChEi from the TCM prescriptions' chemical component database was done and verified by experiment. Result: The mapping relationship between the compounds and targets were established in this study to predict appropriate targets,and thus find the key active compounds and their chemical structures. Furthermore,5 new compounds with new AChEi structures were found in the experiment. Conclusion: This study provides new direction and new method for research on TCM compounds as well as the development and research of targeted drugs,which is important for innovation and modernization of Chinese medicine.  
摘要:Recurrent oral ulcer (ROU) is a common disease of oral mucosa, with a high incidence rate and complicated etiology. It is correlated with many factors, such as abnormal immune function, oral flora disorder, infection, microcirculation disturbance, trace element deficiency and endocrine disorders, but the exact cause and pathogenesis are still unknown. The imbalance of oral micro-ecosystem and immune system is a hotspot in current studies. Oral microbial imbalance has been paid more and more attention by domestic and foreign scholars, and the studies on oral bacteria have some progress. However, viral genome, which is the most abundant member of oral microbial community, has not been further studied. With the great advantages of virus macro genomics in the medical field, high throughput sequencing method has been rapidly promoted in the field of viral genomics studies, and grown into a powerful tool for solving virus-host interactions. According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), ROU is also known as recurrent aphthous, whose etiology and pathogenesis are dominated by 'inflammation'. The inflammatory syndromes in spleen and stomach are the most common, which is closely related to the imbalance of oral micro-ecosystem and immune disorders. Study on micro ecological regulation, as an advantageous field of TCM, starts with oral viral genome and TCM's therapeutic mechanism for ROU, and focuses on core molecular mechanisms of ROU through high throughput sequencing method. It is expected to observe dynamically oral viral genomes regulation mode of TCM compounds, and reveal TCM's micro-ecological connotation reaching clinical curative effect. It is of important significance to fully understand the ROU pathogenesis, and give better guidance to clinical treatment.

摘要:Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common chronic complications of diabetes, and one of microvascular complications. Modern medical studies have not defined the pathogenesis, and generally believed that high blood sugar-induced oxidative stress plays a key role. Modern medicines for hypoglycemic, nutrition, improving microcirculation, inhibiting sorbitol production and resisting oxidation have showed a certain clinical curative effect. However, here is still no effective method to treat stubborn painful neuropathy, which could still be relieved with analgesic drugs. In recent years, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has made great progress in clinical treatment of the disease, with further researches on the mechanism of action of TCM. Nearly 10 years of literatures were retrieved to summarize the etiology and pathogenesis, syndrome type differentiation, specially designed medicine,TCM combined with western medicine, combination of acupuncture with medicine and experimental researches. According to the studies, TCM believes that this disease belongs to a ‘collateral disease’, and mainly treated with therapies for tonifying Qi and Yin, warming Yang, promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, and dredging collaterals, and combination of internal and external treatment could show the multi-target effect. But the current researches mostly focused on a specific prescription or medicine, and paid more attention to observation indexes in blood sugar, blood fat, superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and nerve conduction velocity than the molecular and cellular indexes. Therefore, how to define the mechanism of action of TCM in treatment of DPN and conduct concentration-response relationship and toxicology researches by using modern technologies under the guidance of TCM theory is a key problem to be solved.  
摘要:Objective: Gentianarigescens,mainly distributed in Yunnan and Sichuan province of China, is widely known as traditional Chinese herbs in folk with long medicinal history.

Their main pharmacological effects include liver protection, choleretic effect, analgesia, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, promoting neural activation and so on.This paper would summarize the chemical constituents and pharmacological activity of G. rigescens, and provide reference for further development and utilization of G. rigescens.  
摘要:There are corresponding special affinity between specific physical character and pathogenic factors, which is consistent with the origin-analogue theory. With transition from the biomedical model to the biological-psychology-social medical model, the community medicine is shifting to the individual medicine, and individual differences are getting more and more attention. As an important part of life science, the science of traditional Chinese medical(TCM) constitution pays attention to regulating functions of human body as a whole, as well as individual differences in constitution. And constitution is an important form of human life activities, as well as the combination of specific physical quality and psychological quality. On the basis of descriptions about personality and constitution in the Inner Canon of Huangdi, the TCM concept of the ‘integration of body and spirit’, the TCM theory of personality and constitution opens up a new perspective for disease control and prevention. Nowadays, premenstrual syndrome affects life of patients in all aspects. Due to the special constitutions of women of childbearing age, personality becomes the research emphasis of the disease. This article focuses on a brief analysis on the relationship between the physical character and premenstrual syndrome, in order to provide prevention and control measures from the perspective of the constitution and personality, improve personal physique, achieve the health status with the balance of Yin and Yang, and carry forward the theory of preventive treatment.
