BACKGROUND: Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus can be used to treat many diseases of cardiovesculer and neurosystem by calming and protecting endothelium and neuron.OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of drinking water extracts of Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus on body mass, food intake, energy intakes, serum glucose, insulin, total antioxidative ability of high-fat-fed rats.DESIGN: A completely randomized and controlled experiment.SETTING: Institute of Physiology, Foundational Medical College of Lanzhou University.MATERIALS: The experiment which is Gansu Province Key Labor of Pre-clinical Research for Chinese Herbs & New Drugs was carried out at the Physiological Laboratory of Institute of Foundational Medical College of Lanzhou University from March 2003 to May 2003. Twenty-seven healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into the following three groups (9 rats each group): namely, the normal control group, the high-fat-fed group and the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group.METHODS: [1] The rats of control group were fed with referenced diets(Protein, fat and carbohydrate was made up fore18.2%, 4.5%, 55.2% respectively), while the rats of high-fat-fed and the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group were fed with high-fat diets in which protein, fat and carbohydrate accounted for 23.7%, 21.6%, 39.0% respectively. [2]The rats in control and high-fat group could drink water freely every day while the rats in Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group drank freely one percent water extract of Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus at the first day of the experiment, later the concentration of Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus increased gradually to six percent at the sixth day, which lasted until the end of the experiment. [3]Food intake was monitored daily, and body mass weekly at set time, the energy intake was calculated on basis of food intake. We calculated the Lee's Index [(body mass)1/3 (g) × 103 / body length (cm)]. [4] At the end of the seventh week, all rats were fasted for twelve hours to collect blood for the measure of some serum items. The serum levels of glucose were determined with hexokinase. The levels of insulin was measured by Radioimmunology methods. Malondiadehyde was measured by thiobarbituricbased colorimetric assay. Total antioxidative ability and free fatty acid were evaluated by colorimetric assay. [5] The difference of quantity data among the tree groups were statistically analyzed by F analysis, while the difference between two groups was analyzed by LSD methods. The main indexes of the experiment were body mass, food intake, energy intake, serum glucose after fasting, insulin, free fatty acid, malondialdehyde and total antioxidative ability respectively.RESULTS: Twenty-seven rats date was analyzed and nine rats in every group. [1] Body mass: Compared with the high-fat-fed group, body mass in rats of the control group and the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group were less from the end of the third week to the end of the experiment (P < 0.05-0.01).As compared between the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group and the control group, there was no significant difference from the first week to the sixth week (P > 0.05), while the body mass of the former group was bigger than that of the latter at the end of the seventh week (P < 0.01). [2] Lee's Index of the rats in high-fat-fed group was significantly higher than those of the rats in the control and Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group (P < 0.01).[3] Food intake: From the first week, compared with the control group, the food intake of rats in Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group was less (P < 0.01)and lower than that in high-fat-fed group at the end of the third, fifth, sixth and seventh week, too (P < 0.05-0.01). [4] Energy intake: As the food was high-fat, the Energy intake of rats in the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group was higher than that of the control group at the end of the first, second and forth week (P < 0.05-0.01), while less than that of the high-fat-fed group at the end of the third, fifth, sixth and seventh week (P < 0.01). [5] The serum glucose: There was no statistical significance among the three groups. [6]The level of serum insulin and malondiadehyde of the rats in high-fat-fed group were higher than that of the control group and the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus (P < 0.01). [7] The level of free fatly acid of rats in high-fat-fed group was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05), while there wasno statistical difference compared with the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group. [8] The level of total antioxidative of the rats in high-fat group was lower than that of the Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus group (P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: [1] Drinking water extracts of Ramulus Uncariae et Uncus could inhibit the weight gain and food intake, [2] reduce level of free radical and insulin of serum, which could be caused by the dec lining of free fatty acid. [3] In the same time, increase the total antioxidative ability of the obese rats caused by high-fat diets.

OBJECTIVE To compare the difference of methods for active systemic anaphylactic reaction induced by breviscapine injection between ″Pharmacopoeia″ 2010 edition, an Attached ⅫG in Traditional Chinese Medicine lnjection Safety Test Application Guidelines ″ Anaphylactic Reaction Test″(thereafter referred to as the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″) and the Traditional Chinese Medicine, Natural Medicine lmmune Toxicity (Anaphylaxis, Anaphylactic Reaction of Light) Technology Guiding Principles in the 2005 Version (thereafter referred to as the method of ″Guiding Principle″) and provide reference for non-clinical safety evaluation of drugs. METHODS According to the methods of ″Pharmacopoeia″and ″Guiding Principle″, respectively, the effect of breviscapine injection on active systemic anaphylactic reaction of guinea pigs was investigated. The guinea pigs were divided into four groups, negative control group, positive control group, breviscapine injection 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 groups. ln the sensitization phase, the guinea pigs were ip administrered with breviscapine injection 0.5 mL each every other day for 3 times. The dose was 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 , respectively. For the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″, on the 14th and 21st days after the first sensitization, the guinea pigs were iv administrered with breviscapine injec-tion 1 mL. For the method of ″Guiding Principle″, the guinea pigs were provocated on the 12th day after the first sensitization. Each group was studied by observing the symptom of anaphylactic reaction and immune time. RESULTS For the method of ″Pharmacopoeia″, on the 14th day after the first sensitization, there was 1 guinea pig with sneezing and (or) the nose-scratching at different time in the 5 mg.kg-1 group. ln the 50 mg.kg-1 group, there was one or two cases of sneezing and (or) 1 case of nose-scratc-hing. The 5 and 50 mg.kg-1 dose groups conformed to the regulations. On the 21st day after the first sensitization, trembling occurred in the 5 mg.kg-1 group, with 1 or 2 guinea pigs sneezing and ( or) scratching the nose. There were 4 guinea pigs (4/ 4) with sneezing 1 and 3 times, cough once or twice, 1 scratching nose and urination at different time, and 1 guinea pigs (1/ 4) appeared 3 times consecutive sneezing and shivering in 50 mg.kg-1 group. The 5 mg.kg-1 group conformed to the regulations, while the 50 mg.kg-1 group did not. For the method of ″Guiding Principle″, the 5 mg.kg-1 group was weak positive or positive, with different degrees of symptoms of an anaphylactic reaction, including 3 guinea pigs scratched nasal symptoms. And the 50 mg.kg-1 group of anaphylactic symptoms including scratc-hing nose, sneezing, coughing and (or) urination, showed positive. CONCLUSION During the active systemic anaphylactic reaction of drugs non-clinical safety evaluation of drugs the advantage of either method should be brought into play. The method of ″ Pharmacopoeia″ may be used for preliminary screening of test samples. ln case pf suspected reactions, the method of ″Guiding Principle″ should be used for more detailed observations.

Polyacrylamide resin was synthesized via surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization ( SI-ATRP) method. Acrylic amide ( AM) was grafted onto the surface of the chloromethyl polystyrene resin via SI-ATRP in the CuBr/2, 2'-bipyridine ( Bpy) system as catalyst at room temperature. The compositions of polyacrylamide resin were determined by means of elementary analysis, FT-IR analysis and scanning electron microscopy ( SEM) . The adsorption properties, the parameters of kinetics and the thermodynamics of the resin were evaluated in details, respectively. As the results, adsorption capacity of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) increased with the initial concentrations of solution increasing at room temperature, and its highest adsorption capacity was 111. 0 mg/g with solution concentration of 8 mmol/L. Adsorption isotherm at room temperature was determined and modeled with Langmuir and Freundlich equations. The thermodynamic equilibrium functions were calculated to be ΔG<0,ΔH=268. 2 kJ/mol, ΔS>0, hence, the adsorption was spontaneous, endothermic and entropy increasing. The kinetics fitted the pseudo-second-order well. The polyacrylamide-chloromethyl polystyrene (PAM-CMCPS) resin was used for the adsorption of 2,4-D in orange sample, and good results were obtained.
