Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2013;44(18):2502-2507
Objective: To study the anti-complementary anthraquinones from Polygonum cuspidatum and their action targets. Methods: The anti-complementary activity-directed isolation was carried out with the hemolysis test as guide. All isolates were evaluated for their in vitro anti-complementary activities. The action targets of the main bioactive constituents were also examined using complement-depleted sera. Results: Ten anthraquinones and three other compounds were isolated from the EtOAc fraction of P. cuspidatum extract, including physcion (1), chrysophanol (2), questin (3), emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside (4), emodin (5), rhein (6), fallacinol (7), citreorosein (8), xanthorin (9), isorhodoptilometrin (10), 2, 5-dimethyl-7-hydroxychromone (11), 7-hydroxy-4-methoxy-5-methylcoumarin (12), and 5, 7-dihydroxy-1-isobenzofuranone (13). Compounds 9 and 10 were isolated from the the plants of Polygonaceae for the first time, and compound 9 was the alizarin-type anthraquinone first obtained from P. cuspidatum. Compounds 3-9 showed the anti-complementary activity in different degrees, and compound 7 exhibited the most significant activity against the classical and alternative pathway [CH50 = (6 ± 2) μg/mL, AP50 = (50 ± 5) μg/mL]. The study on the preliminary mechanism revealed that compound 4 interacted with C1q, C2, and C9 in complement activation cascade, while compound 7 acted on C1q, C2, C4, and C9. Conclusion: The anthraquinones are main anti-complementary constituents in P. cuspidatum; and fallacinol (7) is a potential complement inhibitor with strong activity and definite targets, which should be further studied in future.
3.Magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2013;(3):196-199
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) or Klatskin tumor is a scirrhous adenocarcinoma that arises from the conjunction of bile duct and hepatic ducts.Hepatic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) are important methods for the diagnosis of HCCA.In this article,the clinical data of 42 patients in the Changhai Hospital and 18 patients in the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital who received MRI and MRCP examination from October 2010 to October 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the pathological features,HCCA could be divided into mass-forming type,infiltrating type and intraductal type.Based on the results of imaging examination and intra-and postoperative pathological examination,Bismuth-Corlette types were decided pre-and postoperatively.The coincidence rate of pre-and postoperative Bismuth-Corlette types was 89.7% (35/39).Infiltration of liver parenchyma was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 19 patients (16 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 84.2% ; vascular invasion was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 10 patients (12 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 83.3% ; hilar and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 6 patients (4 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 66.7%.Combined application of different sequences and techniques of MRI is helpful in the diagnosis,staging and treatment of HCCA.

Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2015;(2):120-122
Objective To observe the efficacy and prognosis of aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion plus acupuncture in treating peptic ulcer.Method Thirty-four patients in the treatment group were intervened by aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion plus acupuncture, while thirty-three patients in the control group were by Omeprazole Enteric-coated Capsules. The clinical efficacy, the effect on ulcer under gastroscope and Hp, and the therapeutic efficacy 12 months after the intervention were evaluated.Result The total effective rate was 91.2% in the treatment group versus 72.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). For ulcer by gastroscopy, the total effective rate was 85.3% in the treatment group versus 69.7% in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). After intervention, the Hp level didn’t show significant change (P>0.05). The relapse rate of the control group was higher than that of the treatment group 12 months after the intervention.Conclusion Aconite-cake-partitioned moxibustion plus acupuncture can produce a higher efficacy than Western medication in treating peptic ulcer.
