Objective To establish an HPLC method for determination of pterodontic acid in Lingdancao Soft Capsula. Methods Agilent Zorbax XDB-C18 column (250 mm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m) was used. Acetonitrile-water (60∶40) was used as mobile phase, the detection wavelength was 210 nm, flow rate was 1.0 mL/min, and column temperature was at 25 ℃. Results The linear range of pterodontic acid was 12.91—129.1 ?g/mL (r=0.999 9), the average recovery rate of pterodontic acid was 99.7 %, RSD was 2.0%. Conclusion The method is simple, accurate, and reliable, and it can be used to the quality control of this preparation effectively as a quantitative method.

Object To study the mechanism of triptolide solid lipid nanoparticle (TP-SLN) for decreasing liver toxicity of triptolide (TP). Methods With ig three doses of TP-SLN to mice for 60 d, the A LT, AST activities in serum and superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxida se (GSH-Px) activites and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents in liver were determin ed. Results The activities of ALT, AST, SOD, GSH-Px and conten t of MDA between experimental group and blank group did not have remarkable diff e rence. However, the activites of ALT, AST, SOD, GSH-Px for the middle- (20 ?g /kg) and high-dose (30 ?g/kg) group were higher and the contents of MDA were lower than the experimental group. Conclusion TP-SLN can decrease the liver toxicity of TP.
