Objective: To study the effects of various compatible herbs and pH value conditions on the change rule of anthraquinones in Rhei Radix et Rhizoma (RRR). Methods: The pH value of the extracted solution from seven compatible herbs[vinegar Kansui Radix (vKR), Moutan Cortex (MC), Scutellariae Radix (SR), Coptidis Rhizoma (CR), Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata (ALRP), Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (AFI), and Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex (MOC)] were determined, then RRR was added into hydrochloric acid solution with the same pH value as the above solutions and boiled, in which the contents of anthraquinones were determined by UV-Vis and HPLC. The contents of anthraquinones were compared with those in the decoction of compatible herbs and single RRR. Results: The results of UV-Vis showed that total anthraquinones got the lowest amount when RRR and CR were boiled together while the highest appeared when RRR and SR were boiled together; the contents of total anthraquinones were increased when the pH value was increased. The results of HPLC showed that the five anthraquinones got the lowest dissolving-out quantity when RRR and CR were boiled together while the highest appeared when RRR and ALRP were boiled together. Under the conditions of different pH values, the highest dissolving-out quantity was got when the pH value reached 5.6. Conclusion: Both the compatible herbs and pH value could affect the dissolution of anthraquinones during the extraction. However, the effects of various compatible herbs and different pH value conditions adjusted by hydrochloric acid are different, and the pH value conditions have greater effects.

Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation training on the regeneration of nerve cells in rats after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods A total of 75 male SD rats were randomized into a training group,a control group and a sham operated group,25 rats/group.The ICH models were induced by stereotactical injection of collagenase type Ⅶ into the globus pallidus.The training group was trained with grasp,balancing and rotating exercise every day,the control group was restricted to their cages,and the sham operated group received normal saline injections.Each group was further subdivided into 1,4,7,14 and 28 day subgroups.Neurological function was measured in each group.Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) was used to label S phase cells,immunohistochemical single and double staining with antibodies against BrdU,microtubal-associated protein (MAP) and neuronal nuclei (NeuN) were used to determine neuronal proliferation,migration and differentiation in the subventricular zone ( SVZ ) and subgranular zone (SGZ) in the training and control groups.Results The motor function scores of the animals in the rehabilitation group were significantly lower than those of the control group.Proliferative BrdU + cells of the SVZ and SGZ in the control group rats were clearly less than those in the rehabilitation training rats at all time points.The results of the immunohistochemical double staining indicated that one week after ICH BrdU +/MAP + cells in the SVZ had increased significantly in the training group compared to the control group,and then decreased two weeks later.At the same time,BrdU +/MAP cells were found in the striatal boundary on the hemorrhage side,in numbers up to 8 times that in the control group.In the rehabilitation group striatal neuron differentiation on the hemorrhage side was 2 to 3 times that in the control group.Conclusion Rehabilitative training can enhance nerve cell proliferation,regeneration and neuron migration after ICH.

PurposeTo explore the correlation between apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value on MR diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) and prognostic factors in breast invasive ductal carcinomas.Materials and Methods 103 patients with pathology-proven invasive breast ductal carcinomas underwent DWI MR scan using b=1000 s/mm2. The minimum ADC values of the lesions were determined. Histopathological specimens were analyzed for tumor size, lymph node metastasis, pathological grade (traditional prognostic factors) and the expression of prognostic factors including Ki-67, ToPo-IIα, P53 and CyclinD1. The correlations between ADC values and these prognostic factors were evaluated.Results In 103 breast invasive ductal carcinomas, there was no significant relationship between tumor size, lymph node metastasis, pathological grade and mean ADC values (P>0.05). The correlations between mean ADC values and the biological prognostic factors were not significant (P>0.05). However, positive correlations were observed between pathological grade and the expression of Ki-67 as well as ToPo-IIα(P<0.05).Conclusion ADC values cannot serve as a prognostic factor for invasive ductal breast carcinomas. However, the expression of Ki-67 and ToPo-IIα in breast invasive ductal carcinomas may be important in evaluating prognosis of the tumor and guiding clinical therapy.

Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites produced by certain genera of toxigenic fungus and frequently oc-cur in food worldwide. Humans and animals can be simultaneously exposed to different mycotoxins through the diet. As most mycotoxins are highly toxic, carcinogenic, teratogenic and mutagenic, they have posed grave health threats to consumers. Determination of mycotoxins and their main metabolites in blood, urine, bile, milk or faeces can serve as biomarkers and can facilitate effective exposure assessment, crucial to estimate mycotoxin related dis-ease risk. According to reason mentioned above, the study of metabolism and evaluations of mycotoxins in biologi-cal fluids have been paid increasing attention since the results may offer valuable indications on the real risk for consumers. Therefore, it is important to develop proper analytical methods for the rapid quantitative and qualita-tive measurement of mycotoxins and key metabolites in vivo. This paper reviewed some biomarkers and their harm to animals and humans, systematically summarized the research progress of analytical methods and prospected the development trends.
