摘要:Objective: To establish an analysis method of Shuanghuanglian preparations for determination of multiple components by HPLC chromatographic, in order to assist the peak identification, and detect the prediction accuracy and column suitability. Method: The retention time of the nine components in Shuanghuanglian preparations were determined on 28 C18 columns of different brands and types. The standard retention time (SRT) was calculated. Both chlorogenic acid (peak 1) and wogonin (peak 9) were taken as the linear calibration standards to forecast the retention time of the other seven components. Other 5 C18 columns of different brands and types were used for validation. In comparison of liner calibration with the two reference substances, baicalin was used as the reference substance for the determination of relative correction factors of other eight components. Result: Liner calibration with two reference substances is more accurate for predicting the retention time and suitable for more kinds of chromatographic columns than the relative retention time method. Further studies shall be made for the standardization and practicability. Conclusion: The method of liner calibration with two reference substances can be used to assist the chromatographic peak identification, with a broad practical prospect.

摘要:Objective: To construct H9c2 cell line with high expression of heat shock transcription factor 1(HSF1), in order to investigate the effect of Shenxiong glucose injection (SGI) in protecting H2O2-induced H9c2 cellular oxidation injury with a high expression of HSF1. Method: The recombinant plasmid of GV142-HSF1 was constructed and transfected into H9c2 cells with FuGENE 6 transfection reagent, and G418 was used to obtain stably transfected cell line. The expressions of HSF1 and heat shock protein 70(HSP70) were detected with Real\|time RT-PCR and Western blot to confirm the establishment of H9c2 cell line with high expression of HSF1 (H9c2-HSF1). The H9c2-HSF cells were pretreated with SGI for 24 h, and then treated with H2O2(300 μmol ·L-1) for 0.5 h. After that, cell viability, contents of malondialdehyde(MDA) and reactive oxygen species(ROS), releases of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) and creatine kinase(CK), activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and Glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px), and expressions of HSF1 and HSP70 were examined. Result: The results of Real-time PCR and Western blot assays showed that the mRNA and protein expressions of HSF1 and HSP70 were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01) compared with the untransfected cells, which verified the establishment of H9c2-HSF1 cell line. Compared with H9c2 cells+H2O2 and H9c2-HSF1 cells+H2O2, corresponding administration unit showed an up-regulated expressions of HSF1 and HSP70 (P<0.01), an increased cell survival rate (P<0.01), and decreased releases of LDH and CK and MDA generation (P<0.01) after 6 h pretreatment with SGI and 0.5 h treatment with H2O2,dereased content of ROS and increased the activities of SOD and GSH-Px. Conclusion: H9c2 cell line with high expression of HSF1 was constructed successfully. It is found that high expression of HSF1 can significantly enhance the anti-oxidative damage effect of SGI; the mechanism may not be associated with the enhancement of the cell's capability of clearing ROS, but may be correlated with the up-regulation of HSP70 expression, which needs further study.  
摘要:Objective: To observe the effect ofexternal application of Xugudan on expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) in rat model of tibial nonunion.

Result: As compared with the model group, bone spacing, VEGF and TGF-β expression levels were significantly increased in Xugudan high, middle and low dose groups as well as TENS group(P<0.01). As compared with TENS group, bone spacing, VEGF and TGF-β expression levels were significantly increased in Xugudan high dose group (P<0.01), butthe difference was not significant from Xugudan middle dose group, and the levels were significantly decreased in Xugudan low dose group (P<0.01,P<0.05). Conclusion: Xugudan can improve the local blood supply by regulating the expression of VEGF and TGF-β, induce vascular remodeling and bone remodeling, and promote the nonunion healing.  
摘要:Objective: To investigate the inhibitory effect of tormentic acid (TA) on the proliferation of rat hepatic stellate cell (HSC-T6) and transformation growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad signal pathway, so as to explore its anti-hepatic fibrosis mechanism. Method: Cell counting kit (CCK)-8 assay was used to observe the proliferation of HSC-T6 cell after treated with TA (0, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 μmol · L-1) for 24 h. The half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of TA was calculated, and the optimal concentration was selected. HSC-T6 cells in the logarithmic phase were collected and divided into normal control group, stimulation group, and high, middle and low-dose TA (40, 20, 10 μmol · L-1) treatment groups. Cell colony formation was observed using Giemsa staining; and cell apoptosis and cell cycle were examined by flow cytometry. The protein expression of Col-Ⅲ was detected by immunocytochemistry. Additionally, the protein expressions of Smad4 and α-SMA were detected by Western blot. Result: TA could inhibit the proliferation of HSC-T6 cells in a concentration-dependent manner, and its IC50 value was 81.7 μmol · L-1. Compared with the normal group, TA significantly inhibited the colony formation in a dose-dependent manner. Meanwhile, TA could also significantly promote HSC-T6 cell apoptosis and arrest cell cycle in G2 phase (P<0.05, P<0.01). In addition, TA obviously decreased the protein expressions of Col-Ⅲ, α-SMA and Smad4 (P<0.05). Conclusion: Tormentic acid can significantly suppress HSC-T6 cell activation. Its mechanism may be correlated with the promotion of cell apoptosis, the retardation of cell cycle and the inhibition of TGF-β/Smad pathway.  
摘要:Objective: To investigate the effect of Yupingfeng San on the immune function of mice models with lung injury induced by smoked soot-related respirable particulate. Method: The experimental mice were placed in a special exposure box, and the smoke from the combustion of coal was introduced into the box. The PM 2.5 concentration in the box was maintained at 700-900 μg · m-3 to establish the model of lung injury. The Yupingfeng San decoction was given to the models by intragastric administration in 3 different ways:prevention, prevention+treatment, and treatment. Then the proportion of dust cells in the alveolar lavage fluid was detected; the count of CD68+ macrophages in the lung tissues was detected by immunocytochemistry; CD4+ and CD8+ cells counts and their ratio were detected by flow cytometry; IgE and IgG concentrations in serum and lung tissues were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Result: The dust cells count and CD68+ macrophages count in alveolar lavage fluid of model mice were increased significantly; serum CD4+, CD8+ were decreased; the IgE level in serum was increased and the IgG level in serum was decreased; IgE level in the lung homogenate had no obvious change, while the IgG level in lung homogenate was decreased significantly in model group. After drug intervention, the count of CD4+ and CD8+ cells in the blood was increased, but there was no statistical difference between the two groups. The count of dust cells and the count of CD68+ macrophages were decreased significantly, most obvious in the prevention+treatment group. The IgE level in serum was lowest in the prevention group, and the IgG level in serum and lung homogenate was highest in the prevention+treatment group. Conclusion: Yupingfeng San can improve the cellular and humoral immune function of mice, and the effect can be maintained in toxic environment; however the effect in the toxic environment is far less than the earlier application effect.

摘要:Objective: To elucidate the names of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) of Astragali Radix through the textual research for the literal meaning of Astragali Radix. Method: Dictionaries of the Han dynasty to the Ming and Qing dynasties and ancient Chinese herbal medicine books were retrieved for the textual research of the meaning and origin of name of Astragali Radix. Result: Old radical of Qi refers to the names of Chinese herbal medicine Astragali Radix in the ancient TCM books,while grass radical of Qi refers to the TCM names of Astragali Radix in the modern books. Grass radical of Qi was interpreted as Qimu, and is now interpreted as TCM Anemarrhenae Rhizoma but not TCM Astragali Radix in Shuowen Jiezi, Yupian, Guangyun, Jiyun, Leipian and Zihui. In the Ming dynasty dictionary Zhengzitong, grass radical of Qi was interpreted as TCM Astragali Radix. Grass radical of Qi was interpreted as TCM Astragali Radix and Anemarrhenae Rhizoma in Kangxi Zidian and Hanyu Dacidian. LI Zhong-li of the Ming dynasty specially pointed out that it was wrong to write old radical of Qi as grass radical of Qi in his book of Zhengzitong. It suggested that the glyph of grass radical of Qi started to be used in the Ming dynasty. Old radical of Qi was interpreted as long in all of the previous dictionaries, and expressed its botanical morphological characteristic. Therefore, the name of old radical of Qi is consistent with the naming habit of Chinese herbal medicine. Conclusion: The herbal contents of ancient documents and Chinese herbal medicine books are compared to illuminate the literal meaning, distinguish clearly the relationship between the literal meaning and the TCM names, find out the reasons for changing the name of Astragali Radix, and provide the reference value for consulting ancient documents in the study of Chinese herbal medicine books.

Long course and lack of efficient drugs make diabetes one of the severest diseases that bother the public health system. Developing a safe and effective hypoglycemic drug is the key to solve this problem. Traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) and their extracts have unique advantages in treatment of diabetes, highly effective and with little side-effects. Clinical and experimental studies unveiled that oleanolic acid from TCM played the major role in its hypoglycemic effects. More and more researches have been published in these years to reveal the mechanism of oleanolic acid in diabetic treatment. At first, the pharmacological functions of oleanolic acid in treatment of diabetes and its complications were summarized in this paper. Subsequently, possible molecular mechanism of how oleanolic acid could modulate glycogenesis and glycogenolysis, promote insulin production, and enhance insulin effects were discussed, while the possible cellular pathways of oleanolic acid to improve the complications of diabetes by reducing the intracellular inflammatory factors and peroxy free radicals were investigated in this paper. Finally, the existing problems of oleanolic acid as an antidiabetic drug were discussed, and by considering the current research results, solutions were put forward, and prospects were given in terms of how to further develop, produce and promote oleanolic acid as a clinical drug for diabetes.
