OBJECTIVE To explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of 3 blood-absorbed components of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid in rats with hyperplasia of mammary gland （HMG）. METHODS Female SD rats were divided into control group and HMG group according to body weight， with 6 rats in each group. The HMG group was given estrogen+progesterone to construct HMG model. After modeling， two groups were given 1.485 g/kg of Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid （calculated by crude drug） intragastrically， once a day， for 7 consecutive days. Blood samples were collected before the first administration （0 h）， and at 5， 15， 30 minutes and 1， 2， 4， 8， 12， 24 hours after the last administration， respectively. Using chlorzoxazone as the internal standard， the plasma concentrations of ferulic acid， paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in rats were detected by UPLC-Q/TOF-MS. The pharmacokinetic parameters [area under the drug time curve （AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞）， mean residence time （MRT0－∞）， half-life （t1/2）， peak time （tmax）， peak concentration （cmax）] were calculated by the non-atrioventricular model using Phoenix WinNonlin 8.1 software. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞ and cmax of ferulic acid in the HMG group were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； the AUC0－24 h， AUC0－∞ ， MRT0－∞ ， t1/2 and cmax of paeoniflorin increased， but there was no significant difference between 2 groups （P＞0.05）； the AUC0－24 h and MRT0-∞ of rosmarinic acid were significantly increased or prolonged （P＜0.05）. C ONCLUSIONS In HMG model rats， the exposure of ferulic acid， paeoniflorin and rosmarinic acid in Xiangshao sanjie oral liquid all increase， and the retention time of rosmarinic acid is significantly prolonged.

It is believed that the basic mechanism of cough associated with interstitial lung disease is collaterals deficiency with latent wind： the deficiency of the lung organs and lung collaterals is the basis of its pathogenesis， and latent wind in lung collaterals is the key mechanism of the cough which is difficult to cure. Treatment is based on the principle of supplementing deficiency and treating wind， dispelling the pathogens and unblocking the collaterals. Supplementing deficiency should supplement lungs， boost kidneys， and strengthen spleens to consolidate the root and banking up the origin， and regulate and tonify the lung collaterals； dispelling the pathogens should treat the internal and external winds at the same time， and taking into account the combined pathogens of phlegm， stasis and dampness to clear the stagnation of the lung collaterals.

ObjectiveThis study aims to observe the effect of sinomenine （SIN） on fatty acid binding protein 4 （FABP4） in synovial tissue of rats with osteoarthritis （OA） and investigate the therapeutic mechanism of SIN on OA， further providing new ideas for the management of osteoarthritis by traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. MethodsAn OA rat model was constructed and randomly divided into a control group， an OA group， an OA + SIN-L group （50 mg·kg^-1）， an OA + SIN-M （100 mg·kg^-1）， an OA + SIN-H （200 mg·kg^-1）， and an OA + prednisone （PDN） group （5 mg·kg^-1）. Following surgical modeling for three weeks， an appropriate medication was administered for four weeks. During modeling and administration， a hot plate test was performed to detect the pain and swelling of the knee joints of the rats. The periarticular tissue was collected for arthropathological observation at the end of drug administration. The expression of cleaved Caspase-3， B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2 associated X protein （Bax）， and FABP4 in the synovial tissue of rats was detected by Western blot and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， and the expression and distribution of FABP4 protein in the synovial membrane were detected by immunofluorescence. ResultsCompared with those in the control group， the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the OA group were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and joint swelling was significantly elevated （P<0.01）. The thermal pain threshold was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the expression of FABP4 protein and the fluorescence intensity were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The synovial tissue exhibited significantly increased inflammatory infiltration， proliferated fibroblasts， and an elevated apoptotic index （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the OA group， the serum lipid metabolism indexes of rats in the SIN administration group gradually returned to normal （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the levels of inflammatory factors and FABP4 in the serum of rats in the SIN-administered group were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and joint swelling was significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The thermal pain threshold was significantly elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression of FABP4 protein and fluorescence intensity in the synovial tissue were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The synovial tissue displayed significantly reduced inflammatory infiltration and a decreased apoptotic index （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe therapeutic effect of SIN on OA may be related to the down-regulation of FABP4 expression， reduction of apoptosis， and inhibition of inflammatory factor expression.

Objective We aimed to investigate the mechanism of Tianma(tall gastrodia tuber)-Hongjingtian(rose root)medicinal pair in regulating tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)/nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)to protect the endothelial cell barrier in mice with hypoperfused-cerebral small vessel disease.Methods Seventy male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to the sham operation group,model group,Tianma-Hongjingtian groupⅠ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ(the mass ratio of Tianma to Hongjingtian were 1:1,2:1,and 1:2),with 14 mice in each group.A unilateral common carotid artery occlusion mouse model was established.The mice of each group were gavaged once at six hours after the surgery then once every 24 h thereafter.The doses of Tianma-Hongjingtian groupⅠ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ were 1.30,1.95,and 1.95 g/(kg·d),and the sham operation and model groups were administered with the same volume of saline.Cerebral blood flow detection and behavioral post and sampling were performed on the 3rd day(acute phase)and 7th day(subacute phase)of the experiment.Laser diffuse linear ratio imaging was used to observe changes in cerebral blood flow.A gait analyzer was used to evaluate motor coordination.Hematoxylin-eosin staining combined with light microscopy was used to observe pathological and morphological changes in brain tissue.Western blotting was used to detect the expression level of albumin.Immunofluorescence and Western blotting were used to detect the expression levels of tight junction proteins(Occludin and ZO-1).The expression levels of TNF-α,NF-κB,IL-β,and IL-6 were detected through RT-PCR and Western blotting.Results Compared with the sham operation group,cerebral blood flow was reduced on the 3rd day and 7th day in the model group(P<0.05);gait abnormalities of prolonged swing duration,reduced stride frequency,and reduced gait equilibrium(P<0.05)were observed;severe pathological damage was observed in brain tissues,with increased level of albumin expression,decreased protein expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1(P<0.05);mRNA and protein expression levels of TNF-α,NF-κB,IL-β,and IL-6 increased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the cerebral blood flow of mice on the 3rd and 7th day in the three Tianma-Hongjingtian groups was elevated(P<0.05);swinging duration was shortened,step frequency increased,gait equilibrium was elevated(P<0.05);brain histopathological damage was reduced,albumin expression level decreased(P<0.05),and the expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 proteins were elevated(P<0.05);the mRNA and protein expression levels of TNF-α,NF-κB,IL-β,and IL-6 were decreased(P<0.05).Among them,the combined efficacy was better on the 3rd day of Tianma-Hongjingtian group Ⅱ;the combined efficacy was better on the 7th day of Tianma-Hongjingtian groupⅢ.Conclusion Tianma-Hongjingtian can increase cerebral blood flow,improve gait abnormalities,reduce pathological damage to brain tissue,and protecte the function and structure of the endothelial barrier in mice with hypoperfused cerebral small vessel disease,and the mechanism may be related to decreasing the expression of inflammatory factors.

Objective:To investigate the detection status and genotypes distribution characteristics of norovirus(NoV)in environmental sewage from three monitoring points in Fujian province, and to explore the significance of its application to NoV monitoring.Methods:Sewage samples were collected monthly at 5 sampling sites in representative monitoring cities, enriched and concentrated. Partial gene fragments of norovirus VP1 were amplified by reverse transcription-semi nested polymerase chain reaction (RT-snPCR), TA cloned and sequenced. Genotypes were identified based on the sequencing.Results:A total of 56 sewage samples were collected from July 2022 to June 2023. The detection rates of GⅠ and GⅡ were 89.29% (50/56) and 94.64% (53/56), respectively. A total of 7 NoV GⅠ genotypes and 13 GⅡgenotypes were identified. GⅠ.1, GⅠ.4, GⅡ.4 and GⅡ.17 were the dominant genotypes. NoV genotypes detected in different sampling sites were not exactly the same. The detection rate of NoV was low from August to November 2022, and the prevalence of the dominant genotypes was different in different seasons. GⅠ.1 and GⅡ.4 were highly prevalent from August to November 2022, but were replaced by GⅠ.4 and GⅡ.17 from December 2022 to June 2023, respectively. More NoV genotypes were detected in January-June 2023, comparing to the July-December 2022. The dominant genotype GII.17, has multiple clades and new variants have been discovered that are different from the 2014/2015 circulating strains.Conclusions:The detection rates of NoV in environmental sewage were very high, and genotypes were diverse. Environmental sewage surveillance could be an important complementary method for NoV cases surveillance.
