AIM:To study the chemical constituents of Fissistigma oldhamii(Hemsl.)Merr.METHODS:Silica gel column chromatography was used in the isolation procedure,the structures of the isolated compounds were elucidated by spectral data.Meanwhile cytotoxic activity of compound Ⅰ was made according to the cell experiment in vitro.RESULTS:Five compounds were isolated from Radix of Fissistigma oldhamii(Hemsl.)Merr..On the basis of physical-chemical constants and spectral data(EI-MS,1H-NMR,13C-NMR),these compounds were identified as:Aristolactam A Ⅱ(Ⅰ),Aristolactam B(Ⅱ),Physcion(Ⅲ),?-sitosterol(Ⅳ),Stigmastan-7-one(Ⅴ).Compound Ⅰ showed cytotoxic activities on GLC-82 and HL_ 60 cell strains.CONCLUSION:Compounds Ⅲ,Ⅳ and Ⅴ are firstly isolated from Fissistigma oldhamii(Hemsl.)Merr..The IC_ 50 of compound Ⅰ on GLC-82 and HL_ 60 cell strain are:234.45,101.17 ?M.

Objective: To study the pharmacology of Zhiloushu Pills (Radix et Rhizoma Rhei, Stiff silk worm and Flos Sophorae). WTHZ]MethodsMethods: Zhiloushu Pills, clysterred into animals. Results: Zhiloushu Pills can decrease the inflammatory caused by CMC. Conclusion: Zhiloushu Pills are helpful to heal the rabbits local infection caused by staphylococcus aureus. They can also shorten the blood coagulation time and have the function of invigorating the circulation of blood and removing the stasis of blood against stasis animals.

The gastrointestinal tract is the largest digestive organ and the largest immune organ and detoxification organ, which is vital to the health of the body. Drosophila is a classic model organism, and its gut is highly similar to mammalian gut in terms of cell composition and genetic regulation, therefore can be used as a good model for studying gut development. target of rapmaycin complex 1 (TORC1) is a key factor regulating cellular metabolism. Nprl2 inhibits TORC1 activity by reducing Rag GTPase activity. Previous studies have found that nprl2 mutated Drosophila showed aging-related phenotypes such as enlarged foregastric and reduced lifespan, which were caused by over-activation of TORC1. In order to explore the role of Rag GTPase in the developmental defects of the gut of nprl2 mutated Drosophila, we used genetic hybridization combined with immunofluorescence to study the intestinal morphology and intestinal cell composition of RagA knockdown and nprl2 mutated Drosophila. The results showed that RagA knockdown alone could induce intestinal thickening and forestomach enlargement, suggesting that RagA also plays an important role in intestinal development. Knockdown of RagA rescued the phenotype of intestinal thinning and decreased secretory cells in nprl2 mutants, suggesting that Nprl2 may regulate the differentiation and morphology of intestinal cells by acting on RagA. Knockdown of RagA did not rescue the enlarged forestomach phenotype in nprl2 mutants, suggesting that Nprl2 may regulate forestomach development and intestinal digestive function through a mechanism independent of Rag GTPase.
