Journal of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University 2013;(10):1261-1264
[Objective] To explore the anti-inflammatory effects of emodin and its therapeutic effect on acute lung injury. [Methods] By means of analyzing the relevant literatures in PUBMED,CNKI,CBM,Wanfang and Vip Da-tabase from 1998 to 2012,summarized the anti-inflammatory effects and mecha-nisms of emodin, as wel as its therapeutic effect on acute lung injury. [Results] A variety of studies have confirmed the anti-inflammatory effects of emodin, whose mechanism is related to emodin inhibiting the activation of NF-kappa B,modulaing various inflammatory factors, etc. In addition, the effect of emodin in the treatment of acute lung injury has been confirmed on celland animal levels. [Conclusion] Emodin has good prospect of clinical application.

Objective To explore the impacts of leukoaraiosls (LA) on the short-term outcome of acute cerebral infarction. Methods 204 patients after acute cerebral infarction were reviewed from January 2012 to August 2014. They were divided into 4 groups according to the brain magnetic resonance imaging: cerebral infarction without LA (LA-0), and with LA (LA-1, LA-2 and LA-3). The Logistic regression analysis was applied with the short-term outcome of cerebral infarction as the dependent variable, and 16 possible factor as independent variables. Results There were 4 independent factors risk to the worse outcome of acute cerebral infarction, including LA, age, hypertension and cerebral infarction size (OR>1, P<0.05). Conclusion LA is an independent risk factors to the worse short-term outcome of acute cerebral infarction.

OBJECTIVETo identify endophytic fungi bn12 from Cinnamomum camphora chvar, borneol and analysis its volatile metabolites.
METHODThe endophytic fungi bn12 was identified by morphological observation. volatile metabolites of endophytic fungi bn12 was analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrography (GC-MS).
RESULTVolatile metabolites of endophytic fungi bn12 contain borneol and much indoles. The ITS sequence of endophytic fungi bnl2 is most similar to the ITS sequence of pleosporaceae fungus, particularly C. nisikadoi.
CONCLUSIONEndophytic fungi bn12 is belong to pleosporaceae fungus. It has the ability of producing broneol.
