Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(8):1269-1270
Objective To study the effects of epimedium koreanum flavones and davallia mariesil flavones on osteoporosis mice induced by retinoie acid.Methods The osteoporosis mice were induced by retinoic acid and then were fed with epimedium koreanum flavones and davallia mariesil flavones.The biochemical markers in serum were observed.Results The data showed that the blood AKP were higher in mice treated with two total flavones than mice in model group,the blood HOP/Cr,BGP,Ca2+ were lower in treated mice than model group(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Conclusion This study suggests that those two total flavones can effectively treat the osteoporosis mice induced by retinoic acid.

The degradation kinetics of chlorogenic acid (5-CQA), cryptochlorogenic acid (4-CQA), and neochlorogenic acid (3-CQA) in aqueous solution at 37 degrees C and different pH values (7.05, 7.96, 9.25) were investigated in the present work. The results indicated that 3-, 4- and 5-CQA tended to remain stable in acidic pH circumstance, and unstable in neutral and alkaline pH circumstance. With the increase of the alkalinity, the degradation of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA was increased leading to a less amount of total CQA and was satisfactorily described by the Weibull equation. Meanwhile, caffeic acid was not detected after the degradation of CQA. Moreover, the degradation of 3-CQA and 5-CQA tended to be converted to 4-CQA, and the degradation of 4-CQA tended to be converted to 3-CQA rather than 5-CQA. The comparison of the degradation kinetics parameters of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA at neutral and alkaline pH values showed that the orders of the rate constant (k) values were 4-CQA > 3-CQA > 5-CQA, while the orders of the degradation half life (t½) values were 4-CQA < 3-CQA < 5-CQA, indicating the orders of the stabilities of 3-, 4- and 5-CQA at 37 degrees C and neutral and alkaline pH values were 4-CQA < 3-CQA < 5-CQA.

Background Sustained abnormal tear secretion in dry eye patients may lead to ocular surface and lacrimal glands in the state of long-term inflammatory cell infiltration.Lacrimal gland suffers immune attack by lymphoproliferative,and inflammation interferes normal gland secretion,in which chemokines and their receptors on lymphocytes play a key role.Objective This study was to investigate the inflammation mechanism of delayed allergy induced by Th1 cell in the development of dry eye.Methods Sixty eyes of 30 patients with dry eye and matched 30 healthy volunteers were enrolled in Affiliated First Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from June to December in 2012.Schirmer Ⅰ test (S Ⅰ t),break up time (BUT) of tear and corneal fluorescence stain (FLS) were performed on the subjects,and conjunctiva epithelial cells were obtained using cytological method of conjunctiva imprinting.Positive cell rates of CC chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) and CXC chemokine receptor 3 (CXCR3) were detected by flow cytology,and the relative expression levels of regulated upon activation of normal T cells exp ressed and secreted (RANTES),macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-lα and MIP-1β,monokine induced by interferon-γ (IFN-γ) (MIG),interferon-γ inducible protein 10 (IP10) and interferon-inducible T-cell α chemoattractant (I-TAC) mRNA were quantitatively assayed by real-time PCR.Differences of the positive rates of CCR5,CXCR3 and lignds were compared between dry eye group and normal control group.Relationship between the positive rates of CCR5,CXCR3 and BUT,S Ⅰ t,FLS scores was analyzed.Results The values of BUT,S Ⅰ t were (2.90±1.37) seconds and (4.00±2.49) mm/5 minutes in the dry eye group,which were significantly lower than (8.56±4.69) seconds and (11.31 ±5.23) mm/5 minutes in the normal control group (t =3.172,2.186,both at P<0.05).FLS scores,positive rates of CCR5 and CXCR3 were0.90±0.57,(3.38±0.66) % and (2.64±0.47)% in the dry eye group,showing significant elevations in comparison with 0.14±0.06,(2.12±0.21) % and (1.12±0.11) % in the normal control group (t=2.297,3.151,5.454,all at P<0.05).In the dry eye group,the masculine rate of CCR5 was negatively correlated with BUT and S Ⅰ t (r=-0.473,-0.385,both at P<0.05).The masculine rate of CXCR3 was negatively correlated with BUT and S Ⅰ t (r =-0.753,-0.684,both at P<0.05).No considerable correlations between the positive rate of CCR5 with the positive rate of CXCR3 or FLS scores (r =0.231,0.336,both at P<0.05).The relative expression levels of RANTES,MIP-1α,MIG and IP10 mRNA in the dry eye group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group (t =3.091,2.894,2.688,2.245,all at P<0.05),but there were no significant differences in the relative expression levels of MIP-1β and I-TAC mRNA between the two groups (t =0.512,1.979,both at P>0.05).The positive correlations were seen between the masculine rate of CCR5 with the relative expression of RANTES or MIP-1α mRNA (r=0.473,0.285,both at P<0.05),but there was no obvious correlation between the masculine rate of CCR5 and the MIP-1 β mRNA expression(r=0.214,P>0.05).In addition,the masculine rate of CXCR3 was positive correlated with the expressions of MIG and IP10 mRNA (r=0.553,0.314,both at P<0.05),whereas the masculine rate of CXCR3 was not related to the expression of I-TAC mRNA (r=0.364,P>0.05).Conclusions Dry eye is probably along with the long-term infiltration of inflammatory cells.The delayed allergy induced by Th1 cells and the nature killed cells is probably the primary cause to xerophthalmia.CCR5,CXCR3 and their ligands might be the regulative targets in the inflammation mechanism of dry eye.

Objective To study clinical effect of transplantation with vascularized ilium bone and free fibulae, and internal fixation of titanium plate on reconstruction of maxillary defect. Methods Nine cases of maxillary defect were repaired by 7 iliac muscle flaps with deep circumflex iliac artery and vein, 2 cases of fibulae muscle flap with peroneal artery and vein, meanwhile, fixed internally by titanium plate. The vessels were anastomosed with arteria and vena maxillaries externa. Results Nine patients were confirmed by 99m TcMDP 2-4 weeks after operation that the supply of blood was well and the graft bones were survival. By follow-up from 6 months to 3 years after operation, the fixations of graft bones were good. Conclusion Vascularized bone graft and internal fixation of titanium plate is one of the best ways for reconstruction of maxillary defect.

Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2019;54(17):1380-1386
OBJECTIVE: To study the bile acid components in snake bile and other animal bile, and establish the quality control method of the snake bile and its preparations. METHODS: Acetonitrile-methanol and 10 mmol•L-1 ammonium acetate was used as mobile phase system and 18 alkyl silane bonded silica gel was used as filling agent. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to qualitatively identify and quantitatively analyze the bile acid components in snake bile and other animal bile, and the adulteration control and content determination method of bile acid in snake bile and its preparations were optimized to establish a suitable quality control method of snake bile and its preparations. RESULTS: The examination method was highly specialized and suitable for the quality control of snake bile and its preparations.The linear relationship of sodium taurocholate between 0.302-9.053 μg is good, r=0.999 3, the repeatability test and accuracy test results are good, and the RSD is smaller than 3.0%. CONCLUSION: The established quality control method can guarantee the quality and safety of snake bile and its preparations.
