In order to promote the Shenqifuzheng injection (SQFZ) clinical medication safety, this study reevaluate on SQFZ post marketing safety study systematically. Including multi center large sample registration type safety monitoring research, the analysis based on national spontaneous reporting system data, the analysis based on the 20 national hospital information system data and literature research. Above the analysis, it suggests that SQFZ has good security. The more adverse drug reaction (ADR) as allergic reactions, mainly involved in the damage of skin, appendages and its systemic damage, serious person can appear allergic shock. ADR/E is more common in the elderly, may be related to medication (tumor) populations. Early warning analysis based on SRS data and literature research are of the view that "phlebitis" has a strong association with SQFZ used.

A high-performance liquid chromatography method of pre-column derivatization with 1-phenyl-3-methyl-5 -pyrazolone (PMP) has been established for determination of 6 kinds of monosaccharides simultaneously. A special Agilent HC-C18 column (4. 6 mm x 250 mm, 5 microm), optimized for the separation of PMP derivatives, was used at ambient temperature of 40 degrees C. The PMP derivatives elution was performed with a mixture of 0.1 mol x L(-1) phosphate buffer (pH 6. 8) and acetonitrile in a ratio of 84: 16 at a flow rate of 1 mL x min(-1), and UV absorbance of the effluent was monitored at 245 nm. The results showed that the polysaccharides from exopleura of Ginkgo biloba were acidic heteropolysaccharides mainly containing mannose, rhamnose, D-galacturonic acid, glucose, galactose, arabinose, with the molar ratio of 0.032: 0.14: 0.296: 0.403:0.106: 0.046.

In this study, the general bacterial probe and specific cellulolytic bacterial probes were used to quantify the bacteria in rumen. The total RNA were extracted and then hybridized with general bacterial probe after a dilution of concentration. The result showed that there was a high correlation between the hybridization signal and the dilution of total bacterial RNA. Based on the result above, the quantities of three cellulolytic bacteria in rumen sample were detected. The comparative RNA percentage of three cellulolytic bacteria to total bacterial RNA were similar to the previous reports. It can be concluded that the quantification of bacteria in rumen could be conducted by this approach, and which could be used in future research.

Objective To investigate the expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1), ET-2, ET-3, endothelin receptor A (ETRA), ETRB and endothelin coverting enzyme (ECE) in the retinas of 8-week-old diabetic SD rats. Methods The retinal gene expression profiles of healthy and 8-week-old diabetic rats were constructed with restriction fragment differential display polymerase chained reaction (RFDD-PCR), and the differential expression of ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, ETRA, ETRB and ECE was verified using semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting analysis. Results The results of RFDD-PCR showed that the expression of ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, ETRA, ETRB and ECE was up-regulated in diabetic retina. The results of semi-quantitative RT-PCR and Western blotting analysis showed that the expression levels of the six genes and proteins (relative D ratio) in diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the normal retinas (P<0. 05 and P<0. 01, respectively). Conclusion The expression of ET-1, ET-2, ET-3, ETRA, ETRB and ECE is up-regulated in diabetic retina, suggesting that the six genes may be involved in the pathgenesis of diabetic retina.

The purpose of the study is to find the allergic reaction types and characteristics of Chinese medicine injection ( CMI). The authors monitored patients who used Shuxuetong injection, Dengzhan Xixin injection, Shenqi Fuzheng injection, Shenmai injection, Ciwujia injection, Shuxuening injection, Tanreqing injection, Reduning injection, a total of 150,000 cases were monitored. They used a nested case-control design to group the patients and obtained the serum samples from 14 allergic patients and 55 matched patients. They used enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect serum C3, C4, IgE, IgG, MCT-P, and judge the allergic reaction types: Shuxuetong injection hypersensitivity (1 case), can not determine (1 case); Dengzhan Xixin injection hypersensitivity (1 case), hypersensitivity & anaphylactoid reaction (1 case), can not determine (1 case); Shenqi Fuzheng injection hypersensitivity (3 cases), can not determine (1 case); Shenmai injection anaphylactoid reaction (1 case); Ciwujia injection can not determine (1 case), Shuxuening injection can not determine (1 case), Tanreqing injection can not determine (1 case), Reduning injection can not determine (1 case). The results showed that the main type of allergic reaction of CMI was hypersensitivity, the type of allergic reaction was closely related to the varieties of CMI, the hypersensitivity and anaphylactoid reaction might occur in one patient at the same time which used Dengzhan Xixin injection.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of several additives (sodium acetate, phenylalanine and amidocaproic acid) on glycyrrhizin production in Glycyrrhiza uralensis cells.

METHODThe different concentration of additives were administrated into the medium at the beginning of the culture. The glycyrrhizin content in G. uralensis cells was analyzed by HPLC.

RESULTThe lower sodium acetate concentration of 0.1 mmol x L(-1) enhanced the glycyrrhizin content by 2.4 times and the higher sodium acetate concentration resulted in the higher accumulation of cell biomass. Glycyrrhizin content increased slightly when the phenylalanine dosages increased gradually from 0.1-2 mmol x L(-1). The highest glycyrrhizin content of 14.10 microg x g(-1) was obtained with the addition of 2 mmol x L(-1) phenylalanine which was 3.60 times compared with the control. The addition of 0.1 mmol x L(-1) amidocaproic acid increased the glycyrrhizin content by 2. 24 times. With the increase of the concentration of amidocaproic acid, the glycyrrhizin content decreased slightly and the higher concentration of 2 mol x L(-1) inhibited the accumulation of glycyrrhizin.

CONCLUSIONThe addition of sodium acetate, phenylalanine and amidocaproic acid to the medium were effective approaches to enhance the glycyrrhizin content in G. uralensis cells.
