The dried powder of cultural mycelium of ordyceps sinensis was extractedwith 1.25 mol ? L-1sodium hydroxide and precipitated with ethanol to afford the CsOH, in 2.58% yield. CsOH was consisted of 5 monosaccharide measured by paper chromatogra-phy (PPC) and gas- liquid chromatography (GLC). CsOH given intragastrically at the dose of 500 mg?kg-1and 250 mg?kg-1,ip at a dose of 100 mg?kg-1and 50 mg?kg-1had significant hypoglycemic activities in normal mice, alloxan-induced diabetes mice and streptozotocin-induced diabetes mice, and showed a dose-effect relation.

BAP1 is a member of the ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolases (UCH) subfamily of deubiquitylases with basic function of removing monoubiquitin or ubiquitin chains from the specific substrate proteins. As well, it is a key factor in regulating gene expression, cell cycle, cell differentiation,cell apoptosis and DNA damage response, dependent or independent of its deubiquitination function. Evidences haverevealed that mutation or downregulation of BAP1 can prominently increase the occurrence of cancers, including uveal melanoma, mesothelioma, renal cell carcinoma, breast cancer and lung cancer. Currently, the tumor spectrum and the pathogenic mechanism on BAP1 have not been illustrated clearly, and need to be further researched,which might bring a new opportunity in treatment of cancers.
