Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2013;44(18):2502-2507
Objective: To study the anti-complementary anthraquinones from Polygonum cuspidatum and their action targets. Methods: The anti-complementary activity-directed isolation was carried out with the hemolysis test as guide. All isolates were evaluated for their in vitro anti-complementary activities. The action targets of the main bioactive constituents were also examined using complement-depleted sera. Results: Ten anthraquinones and three other compounds were isolated from the EtOAc fraction of P. cuspidatum extract, including physcion (1), chrysophanol (2), questin (3), emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside (4), emodin (5), rhein (6), fallacinol (7), citreorosein (8), xanthorin (9), isorhodoptilometrin (10), 2, 5-dimethyl-7-hydroxychromone (11), 7-hydroxy-4-methoxy-5-methylcoumarin (12), and 5, 7-dihydroxy-1-isobenzofuranone (13). Compounds 9 and 10 were isolated from the the plants of Polygonaceae for the first time, and compound 9 was the alizarin-type anthraquinone first obtained from P. cuspidatum. Compounds 3-9 showed the anti-complementary activity in different degrees, and compound 7 exhibited the most significant activity against the classical and alternative pathway [CH50 = (6 ± 2) μg/mL, AP50 = (50 ± 5) μg/mL]. The study on the preliminary mechanism revealed that compound 4 interacted with C1q, C2, and C9 in complement activation cascade, while compound 7 acted on C1q, C2, C4, and C9. Conclusion: The anthraquinones are main anti-complementary constituents in P. cuspidatum; and fallacinol (7) is a potential complement inhibitor with strong activity and definite targets, which should be further studied in future.
3.Magnetic resonance imaging diagnosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2013;(3):196-199
Hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) or Klatskin tumor is a scirrhous adenocarcinoma that arises from the conjunction of bile duct and hepatic ducts.Hepatic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) are important methods for the diagnosis of HCCA.In this article,the clinical data of 42 patients in the Changhai Hospital and 18 patients in the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital who received MRI and MRCP examination from October 2010 to October 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the pathological features,HCCA could be divided into mass-forming type,infiltrating type and intraductal type.Based on the results of imaging examination and intra-and postoperative pathological examination,Bismuth-Corlette types were decided pre-and postoperatively.The coincidence rate of pre-and postoperative Bismuth-Corlette types was 89.7% (35/39).Infiltration of liver parenchyma was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 19 patients (16 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 84.2% ; vascular invasion was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 10 patients (12 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 83.3% ; hilar and retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis was both detected pre-and postoperatively in 6 patients (4 patients were detected by MRI preoperatively),and the sensitivity of MRI was 66.7%.Combined application of different sequences and techniques of MRI is helpful in the diagnosis,staging and treatment of HCCA.
4.Advances in breast cancer clinical research
China Oncology 2001;0(05):-
New theory, technology and drugs have stinulated clinical research of breast cancer. The typical method for early detection of breast cancer consisted of self examination, clinical breast examination by a health professional and mammography, both fiberoptic ductoscopy and ductal lavage cytology could be effective supplements. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a potential means of avoiding axillary dissection in women with clinically negative axillary patients without influencing the survival. New drugs and regimes had improved complete response in neoadjuvant setting so as to further treatment. Breast conserving therapy with local excision and radiation is well established as an option in the treatment of localized breast cancer, but social and economic factors of the patients should be considered aside from pathological and clinical factors. It is evident that emphasis on early detection, systemic treatment as well as more limited surgery are the trend of breast cancer treatment today.

Shanghai Journal of Acupuncture and Moxibustion 2017;36(6):711-714
Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of acupuncture-moxibustion in treating endometriosis (EM). Method Fifty EM patients were randomized into two groups, 25 cases in each group. The treatment group was intervened by acupuncture-moxibustion, while the control group was intervened by oral administration of Mifepristone tablets. Abdominal pain, pelvic lump, and relevant indicators were observed before and after the treatment, and the therapeutic efficacies were compared.Result After 6-month treatment, symptoms including abdominal pain obviously subsided in the treatment group and the total effective rate was 92.0%, versus 52.0% in the control group, and the between-group difference was statistically significant (P<0.01). The pelvic lump size was significantly changed after the treatment in both groups (P<0.05), suggesting that the lump size became smaller in both groups after the treatment;there was a significant difference in comparing the pelvic lump size between the two groups after the treatment (P<0.05), indicating that the lump size was reduced more significantly in the acupuncture-moxibustion group. The level of serum CA125 changed significantly after the treatment in both groups (P<0.05), suggesting that serum CA125 dropped in both groups after the treatment; there was a significant difference in comparing the level of serum CA125 between the two groups after the treatment (P<0.05), indicating that serum CA125 dropped more significantly in the acupuncture-moxibustion group. A year later, there was a significant difference in comparing the relapse rate between the two groups (P<0.05), revealing that the relapse rate was significantly lower in the acupuncture-moxibustion group than in the medication group.Conclusion Acupuncture-moxibustion can produce a marked therapeutic efficacy in treating EM.
