AIM To develop a comparative method for studying on the HPLC/UV/MS fingerprints of triterpene acid in the leaves and the seeds of Lagerstroemia specious L. METHODS Separation was performed on LunaC_ 18 (2.6 mm?250 mm, 5 ?)analytical column, The mobile phase was composed of acetonitrile and 0.1 % formic acid as gradient eluent. The flow rate was 1.0 ml?min -1 . RESULTS Both of corosolic acid and maslinic acid existed in the leaves and the seeds of Lagerstroemia specious L. Ursolic acid existed in the leaves and the oleanolic acid contained in the seeds of Lagerstroemia speciouswere L. CONCLUSION The method can be used for quality control of the leaves and the seeds of Lagerstroemia specious L.

OBJECTIVETo establish and optimize the proteomic analysis of protoscoleces-specific antigens from Echinococcus granulosus. To provide a foundation for identifying specific antigens in the soluble proteins of E. granulosus protoscoleces for further research.

METHODSBrood capsules were collected aseptically from fertile E. granulosus cysts from the livers of an infected patient. The fertile E. granulosus cysts were fractured, and protoscoleces were collected by centrifugation. The soluble proteins of protoscoleces were acquired using the 2D Quant kit according to the manufacturer's instructions. We employed two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) combined with immunoblot assay (Western blot) to analyze the soluble components of E. granulosus protoscoleces antigens. The 2-DE and immunoblot maps obtained were analyzed with PDQuest 8.0 image analysis software.

RESULTSAbout 233 soluble protein spots were identified with Coomassie-stained gels. Most of the proteins had a molecular weight of 16,000 Da to 117,000 Da, and an isoelectric point value of 3.0 to 10.0. 2-DE immunoblot was conducted and 57 specific antigen spots were observed, among which 23 spots were identified.

CONCLUSION2-DE combined with Western blot is the key to successful proteomic analysis and presents a new possibility for searching the specific E. granulosus protoscoleces antigens.

Chlorella pyrenoidosa No.2 was screened from five species of microalga Chlorella sp. for its higher lipid yield. Effects of medium components and culture conditions on cell growth as well as lipid ac-cumulation of C. pyrenoidosa No.2 were investigated and the results showed that the optimum medium rec-ipe was 20.0 g/L glucose,0.08 g/L glycine,1.0 g/L K2HPO4?3H2O,0.4 g/L MgSO4?7H2O and 0.004 g/L FeSO4?7H2O. The optimum culture temperature,initial pH,shaking rate and light intensity were 28℃,6.0,130 r/min and 650 Lux,respectively. Biomass and lipid content increased from 3.73 g/L and 40.15% to 6.56 g/L and 59.90% when Chlorella pyrenoidosa No.2 was cultivated under the above optimal conditions for 7 days,with lipid yield raised by 162%. Chlorella pyrenoidosa No.2 could produce lipid with xylose as carbon source,and so is potential for lipid production from renewable materials such as lignocellulose. GC analysis demonstrated that the fatty acid composition of the lipid was similar to that of vegetable oil and its unsaturated fatty acid content reached around 71%,thus it is a promising material for biodiesel production.

Aim To explore the effects of Baixiangdan capsule on learning and memory in PMS rat model with liver-qi invasion syndrome. Methods Liver-qi inva-sion rat model was prepared using foot-shock and noise stimulation, and then the model was treated with drugs, finally all the group of rats were evaluated using open-field test. We also detected learning and memory function of PMS liver-qi invasion rats model using Y-maze, new-object recognition and Morris water maze test. Results Compared with the normal group, the total distance increased significantly, number of crosses into the central area and duration of movement in the central area decreased significantly in model group. The total distance decreased significantly, number of crosses into the central area and duration of movement in the central area increased significantly in Baixiang-dan treatment group compared to the model group, and the total distance decreased significantly in fluoxetine treatment group compared to the model group. Com-pared with the normal group, DI decreased significant-ly in model group, and DI increased significantly in Baixiangdan treatment group. During place navigation training, the model group’ s escape latency was obvi-ously delayed on 2nd, 4th day. Compared with the model group, Baixiangdan and fluoxetine treatment group’ s escape latency was obviously reduced. During spatial probe test, compared with the normal group, the escape latency was obviously delayed, and the number of crossing platforms was significantly reduced in the model group. Compared with the model group, the number of crossing platforms significantly increased in Baixiangdan treatment group. Conclusion PMS liver-qi invasion rat model presents learning and memo-ry damage, which could be improved by Baixiangdan capsules, and the treatment effect may be superior to that of fluoxetine.

Objective To assess the efficacy of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) combined with low dose of hormone and lamivudine in the treatment of hepatitis B virus associated glomerulonephritis (HBV-GN).Methods The clinical data of 49 HBV-GN patients diagnosed by renal pathology was reviewed.They were treated with MMF( ≥ 12 years old,0.75 g,two times a day; ＜ 12 years old,0.4 g/m2,two times a day),low dose of hormone [0.5 mg/(kg·d) ],lamivudine( ≥ 12 years old,100 mg/d; ＜ 12 years old,3 mg/kg,two times a day).Results Among of 49 HBV-GN patients,clinical cure rate was 71.4％(35/49),the total effective rate was 81.6％(40/49),85.7％(42/49) patients' HBV DNA level decreased from 5.43 ×104 copies/ml to ＜ 1000 copies/ml.The complete remission rate was 88.0％ (22/25),the partial remission rate was 8.0％ (2/25),the inefficiency was 4.0％ (1/25) in membranous nephropathy (MN);the complete remission rate was 44.4％ (4/9),the inefficiency was 55.6％ (5/9) in mesangial proliferative glomerulone phritis (MsPGN) ; the complete remission rate was 70.0％(7/10); the partial remission rate was 30.0％(3/10)in membrane proliferative glomerulone phritis (MPGN) ;the complete remission rate was 40.0％ (2/5),the inefficiency was 60.0％(3/5) in focal segmental glomerulosclerosts (FSGS).There was significant difference among the different pathological type (P＜0.05).There were less adverse reactions.Conclusions MMF combined with low dose hormone and lamivudine is safe and effective in treating HBV-GN.The efficacy and pathological type has some relationship,MN has the best response,MPGN and MsPGN are second,FSGS is poor.
