Aim:To develop a method for rapid and sensitive simultaneous determination of the hydrophilic and lipophilic active components in Salvia miltiorrhiza tablets. Methods:RP-HPLC condition was established to separate danshensu,salvianolic acid B,cryptotanshinone and tanshinone ⅡA from each other on the Diamonsil C18(250 mm×4.6 mm ID,5 μm)column with the mobile phase consisted of methanol and 0.5% formic acid in gradient elution. Results:The four active components had good linearity. The average recoveries ranged between 96.63% to 100.3% with RSDs of less than 2%. Conclusion:The method appeared to be precise and accurate for the simultaneous determination of the four active components in Salvia miltiorrhiza Bunge tablets within 35 min.

In order to study the structure-function relationship in the protein which is incorporated with p-nitro-L-phenylalanine,the method of MD(Molecular Dynamics) simulation was established and successfully used in the analysis of protein which contains p-nitro-L-phenylalanine.The force field of CHARMM can only stimulate protein with natural amino acid in NAMD.Compared with phenylalanine,p-nitro-L-phenylalanine just has one more group of nitro.If the parameter of group of nitro was defined,the protein containing p-nitro-L-phenylalanine can be simulated.CGenFF-paramchem was used to calculate the energy and topological structure of p-nitro-L-phenylalanine' s new bonds (r),angles (θ),dihendrals (φ) and improper angle (ψ).And then the new defined parameter and topology information was input into the related parameter files and topology files in CHARMM.On the basis of correct parameter,NAMD can successfully simulate the modified BAFF(B lymphocyte stimulator) which contains p-nitro-L-phenylalanine.The changes in structure indicated that there might be new B cell epitopes.The temperature distribution of each frame in the process of dynamics stimulation was in accord with normal distribution,which proved the defined force field parameters was feasible.The RMSD of whole protein solution systemis 2.5.Calculate each resides' RMSF in BAFF,the RMSF of p-nitro-L-phenylalanine's residue is 3.7,which is obviously higher than that of the other residues in β-pleated sheet,and close to the loop rings,indicate that there might be variation in the area of p-nitro-L-phenylalanine residue and might produce new comformational epitopes.The results of MD stimulation will guide the immunogenicity experiments of p-nitro-L-phenylalanine modified proteins.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of concentration, intestinal section and borneol on the intestinal absorption of salvianolic acids. The experiment not only studied the intestinal absorption properties of three concentrations of rosmarinic acid, salvianolic acid B and salvianolic acid A at duodenum, jejunum and ileum, but also of salvianolic acids compatible with borneol at different concentrations using single-pass intestinal perfusion model in rat with phenol red as the marker. The results showed that salvianolic acids was stable under weak-acid condition and affected by metabolism enzyme; The Peff and Ka significantly different among three concentrations of rosmarinic acid and salvianolic acid B, whose intestinal absorption were saturated in high concentration, suggesting that the transport mechanisms of rosmarinic acid and salvianolic acid B were similar to active transport or facilitated diffusion; However, there was inconspicuousness in the Peff and Ka of salvianolic acid A at different concentrations, whose absorption was not saturated in high concentration, indicating that the transport mechanisms of salvianolic acid A was passive diffusion; The Peff and Ka in the ileum obviously higher than those in the duodenum and jejunum, namely the ileum was the best absorption section; When concentration of borneol increased, the enhancing effect of intestinal absorption of salvianolic acids increased, but significantly decreased when borneol increased to some degree. The enhancing effect of medium borneol concentration was the optimum. This implied that borneol can enhance the intestinal absorption of salvianolic acids, and the capacity of enhancing effect was influenced by the concentration of borneol.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism through detecting methylation status in esophageal carcinoma and Barrett's esophagus.Methods The methylation-specific PCR was employed to detect the expressions of RASSF2 in esophageal carcinoma tissues,adjacent tissues from 27 patients after surgery and Barrett's esophagus tissues from 18 patients after gastroscopic biopsy.Results The rate of RASSF2 methylation was much higher in esophageal carcinoma (66.7 %,18/27) than that in adjacent tissues (22.2 %,6/27) (P < 0.05),and was more frequently than that in Barrett's esophagus (33.3 %,6/18) (P < 0.05).However,no significant difference of methylation status was observed between Barrett's esophagus and adjacent tissue (P > 0.05).Conclusion The hypermethylation of RASSF2 may be the molecular mechanism in the development of esophageal carcinoma,and more samples should be used for further experiment in Barrett' s esophagus.

Objective To study the clinical significance of platelet, coagulation ,and fibrinolysis alteration in perioperative period in patients with different Child classifications of cirrhosis. Methods Alterations on the platelet count and the indices of coagulation and fibrinolysis in 17 cases of Child B class who underwent portal-systemic shunt, and 6 cases of Child C class who underwent portal-azygus vein disconnection were detected. Results Before operation,except the decrease in platelet count, there as no significant difference in the indices of other platelet function, coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with Child B class compared with control group. While in patients with Child C class, the platelet count decreased, and GMP-140, FPA and D-dimer increased greatly. After operation, GMP-140 increased in patients with Child B class, while decreased in patients with child C class. The platelet count and factorⅧ:C in patients with Child C class decreased significantly compared with those with Child B class. Conclusions Operation may induce DIC in patients with Child C class, so it is necessary to determine the fibrinogen and factorⅧ:C during the operation.
