OBJECTIVE: To study improvement effects of different proportions of total glucosides of ginseng (TGG), total glucosides of moutan cortex (TGM) and paeonol containing serum on the injury of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) injury induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), screen the optimal proportion and investigate its mechanism. METHODS: The rats were randomly divided into blank group (distilled water), TGG group (TGG, 2.025 g/kg), TGM group (TGM, 4.05 g/kg) and paeonol group (paeonol, 1.08 g/kg), with 12 rats in each group. They were given relevant medicine twice a day for consecutive 7 days. 1 h after last medication, the blood samples were collected via abdominal aorta to prepare drug containing serum. Using survival rate of HUVEC as evaluation indexes, different proportions of TGG, TGM and paeonol containing serum as factors, L9(34) orthogonal test was designed to optimize the optimal proportion of 3 kinds of drug containing serum. HUVEC were divided into blank group, model group, TGG group, TGM group, paeonol group and optimal proportion group. Except that blank group were treated with relevant medium, other group were treated with 1.2 mmol/L H2O2 to induce HUVEC injury, and then TGG group (volume fraction of drug containing serum was 0.000 5%), TGM group (volume fraction of drug containing serum was 0.000 5%), paeonol group (volume fraction of drug containing serum was 1%) and optimal proportion group were intervened with drug containing serum. The levels of LDH, NO and ET-1 in cells were detected by microplate method and ELISA. RESULTS: The optimal proportion of drug containing serum were TGG 0.000 5%, TGM 0.000 5% and paeonol 1%. Compared with blank group, the levels of LDH and ET-1 were higher in model group (P<0.01), while NO level was lower (P<0.05). Compared with model group, the levels of NO were higher in TGG group, TGM group and optimal proportion group (P<0.01), while the levels of LDH and ET-1 were lower (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with TGG group, TGM group and paeonol group, the level of LDH was lower in optimal proportion group (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while the level of NO was higher (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS: TGG and TGM combined with paeonol can significantly improve HUVEC injury induced by H2O2, and the mechanism of which may be associated with the decrease of LDH and ET-1 and the increase of NO.

OBJECTIVE: To establish content determination method for simultaneously determining aucubin,geniposidic acid,catechin,chlorogenic acid,asperuloside,rutin,isoquercitrin and astragalin in Eucommia ulmoides leaves. METHODS:HPLC method was adopted. The determination was performed on Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 column with the mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid(gradient elution) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 203 nm for aucubin and catechin,239 nm for geniposidic acid and asperuloside,220 nm for chlorogenic acid,354 nm for rutin and isoquercitrin,and 266 nm for astragalin. The sample size was 5 μL. RESULTS: The linear range of aucubin, geniposidic acid, catechin, chlorogenic acid, asperuloside, rutin, isoquercitrin and astragalin were 0.812-6.090 μg(r=0.999 3),0.438-3.285 μg(r=0.999 2),0.045-0.336 μg(r=0.999 2),0.882-6.615 μg(r=0.999 3),0.097-0.726 μg(r=0.999 1),0.064-0.483 μg(r=0.999 3),0.048-0.360 μg(r=0.999 1) and 0.014-0.108 μg(r=0.999 7),respectively. RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 3.5%(n=6). The average recovery rates were 101.60%,103.06%,99.77%,96.93%,98.17%,96.75%,98.97% and 99.60%,with RSDs of 1.42%,2.65%,2.78%,2.05%,2.26%,0.93%,2.79% and 3.08%,respectively(n=6). The contents of aucubin, geniposide, catechin, chlorogenic acid, plantain, rutin, isoquercetin and astragaloside in 12 batches of E. ulmoides leaves from different collection time and planting varieties were 10.903-17.245, 5.578-7.892, 0.198-0.440, 13.890-19.782, 1.008-1.547, 1.102-2.396, 0.267-0.701, 0.150-0.412 mg/g, respectively. The content fluctuated greatly. The contents of aucubin, geniposide, catechin, chlorogenic acid, rutin and pinoresinol diglucoside in cortex of E. ulmoides were 0.299, 0.123, 0.580, 0.112, 0.026,1.961 mg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The method is simple, reproducible and accurate. It can be used to evaluate the quality of E. ulmoides leaves. There are obvious differences in composition and content of components in different medicinal parts (cortex, leaves) of E. ulmoides.

ObjectiveTo reveal the correlation of Rehmannia glutinosa-soil feedback process with the formation of its continuous cropping obstacles through the identification of the root exudates of R. glutinosa and analysis of the specific rhizomicrobes recruited by the root exudate. MethodThe root exudates of R. glutinosa seedlings germinated under sterilized condition and those enriched in the rhizosphere of R. glutinosa cultivated in the field were collected and analyzed using the ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS). The highly abundant compounds identified in the root exudates were added into blank soil, and the soil microbial community was profiled using Illumina Miseq sequencing. The bacterial and fungal functions were predicted by PICRUSt and FUNGuild, respectively. ResultThe identification results showed that seven phenylethanoid glycosides were found in R. glutinosa root exudates, and acteoside possessed the highest abundance. In the soil enriched with acteoside, the bacterial genera such as Agromyces, Pseudomonas, Lysobacter, Sphingobium, Pseudoxanthomonas and Sphingomonas were enriched. For the fungi, the genera Neocosmospora, Plectosphaerella and Dactylonectria, and the species such as Neocosmospora rubicola, Plectosphaerella cucumerina, Dactylonectria alcacerensis and Fusarium solani showed higher abundance. The functional analysis indicated the above-mentioned bacterial genera may realize rapid proliferation by utilizing, biodegrading and transforming phenylethanoid glycosides, and some potential fungal pathogens were colonized. ConclusionThe R. glutinsoa-soil feedbacks were likely generated by the phenylethanoid glycosides in the root exudates together with the specific rhizomicrobes. The investigations of R. glutinsoa-soil feedbacks under continuous cropping system are critical to the further understanding of the underlying mechanisms related to its continuous cropping obstacles.
