Objective To establish a method for the determination of tetrah yd ropalmatione in FuLe granules. Methods A HPLC method was used with DiamonsilTM C 18(250? 4.6 mn, 5 ? m) column and a mobile phase of methanol- 0.1 % phospho ric acid solution (adjusted the pH to 6.0 with triethylamine)(60 ∶ 40). Flow ra te was 1.0 mL/min, column tem perature 35 ℃ , the detection wavelength at 280nm and sample loop volume bei ng 20 ? L. Results The calibration curve was linear within the range of 0.102 ～ 1.632 ? g of tetrahydropalmatione, the average recovery was 98.78 % (RSD=2 .75 % ).Conclusion The method is simple and accurate.It can be used for the q uality control of Fule granules.

Objective: To study the morphologic differences and nutritional components of the natural and broken Masson pine pollen. Methods: Pure pollen was collected from Masson pine (Pinus Massoniana Lamb) and the dry pollen was broken by high speed low temperature air flow technique. Their morphologic changes were observed under scan electronic microscopy. The nutritional components of pollen were analyzed.Results: The pollen particle consists of two air bags and one main part, like a mushroom cap. The main morphologic change of broken pollen was that the air bags were separated from pollen particles, and the main part of pollen particles became enriched. The physical characteristics of pollen were changed in container and its fluidity was lost. The broken pollen had very strong adhesiveness. So it could not fly like natural pollen. In broken pollen, the rough fiber, cellulose and semi cellulose contents decreased significantly. Total energy, total lipid, and starch contents increased remarkably. The water soluble and fat soluble components also increased greatly. The total amino acids content of broken pollen was higher than natural pollen except Cys, Arg and Met, and free amino acids were also higher except Cys, Gly and Met. In broken pollen, the amount of lipids extracted by ether increased sharply, nearly 7 times more than natural pollen.Conclusion: It is considered that some nutritional components of natural pollen can be released after broken. Because most of the lipids in pollen are easily oxidized, broken pollen can not be stored for long time.

Injunction is a conception of transactional analysis. It is an injunctive message delivered from parent to children. Injunction is important for development of personality. We suppose that a person who received more injunctions may tend to have more psychological problems. If chronic disease patients have some injunctions, they may show some psychological characteristics which are not conductive for rehabilitation. This article analyzed the injunctions in chronic disease patients and some coping methods were also dicussed.

Objective To approach effect of Yiqihuoxue decoction on remnant stomach paralysis syndrome after subtotal gastrectomy. Methods A total of 44 patient of remnant stomach paralysis syndrome were randomly recruited into a control group and a treatment group, with 22 patients in each group. The control group was treated with TPN parenteral alimentation. On this basis, the treatment group was treated with Yiqihuoxue decoction and mental intervention. The clinical effects were observed in both groups after the treatment. Results The total effective rate was 54.55% and 100% in the control group and the treatment group respectively, showing statistic difference(P=0.00625 ＜0.01).Conclusion It was effective to treat remnant stomach paralysis syndrome with Yiqihuoxue decoction, TPN parenteral nutrition and mental intervention.

The ScFv gene containing Nco I and Bam HI was amplified by PCR, and inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector pHOG21 with Nco I and Bam HI digestion. After screening, high-level expression recombinant XL1-Blue (pHOG2E3) were obtained, and the different expression levels of ScFv were detected by SDS-PAGE and EUSA. When the strain was induced by 0.5 mmol/LIPTG and 0.4mol/L sucrose in the culture medium LB at 37℃ for 6 hours, the high level production of ScFv protein was obtained. The molecular weight of the expressed ScFv is 31, 000 D. The ScFv was mainly in the form of inclusion body, but it could also be in the culture medium and soluble periplasmic content. Above all, the ScFv protein could neutralize the phospholipase C activities of alpha-toxin of Gostridium perfrigens type A.

Using site-directed mutagenesis and DNA recombinant technology, GGC fragment was inserted into human IL-18 cDNA. The mutated IL-18 cDNA was constructed into plasmid pPIC9K, then transformed into Pichia pastoris GS115 and efficiently expressed. A Glycine residue was inserted into the recombinant IL-18 between Arg39 and Asp40 to form a RGD motif. The mutated IL-18 was termed IL-18-RGD. The protein was purified with Sephadex G-100. The cell culture of melanoma B16 showed that IL-18-RGD efficiently inhibited B16 tumor growth, IC50 = 8.10?mol/L, but the inhibitory effect of IL-18 was not detected. Both IL-18-RGD and IL-18 showed inhibitory activities on mice loaded B16 in vivo, the inhibitory efffct of IL-18-RGD was stronger than that of IL-18. The inhibitory activities of IL-18-RGD and IL-18 on bFGF induced angiogenesis on chorioallantoic membranes were detected. There was no differences between IL-18-RGD and wild IL-18 in the activity of inducing IFN-? in human PBMC.

[Objective] To compare the efficacy of Chinese traditional medicine,metformin and cyproterone on reducing insulin resistance,improve metabolic status of glucose and lipid and raise ovulation rate in women with polycysitic ovarian syndrome.[Methods] 100 women with PCOS were divided into three groups:40 patients chosen to be treated by Chinese traditional medicine.The rest were randomly divided into two groups which both contain 30 patients.One group is treated by metformin while another one is treated by cyproterone.Total 87 patients finished the treatment of three months.Basal body temperature(BBT),body mass index,total testosterone,fasting serum insulin and blood sugar levels as well as lipid spectrum were measured and compared among all the patients before and after treatment.[Results] No significant difference is found in the baseline characteristics among three groups before treatment.In Chinese traditional medicine group,90%(36/40)patients finished the treatment,and 33%(12/36)patients ovulated.In metformin group,86%(26/30)patients finished the treatment,and 19%(5/26)patients ovulated.In cyproterone group,83%(25/30)patients finished the treatment,and 16%(4/25)patients ovulated.Ovulation rate was significantly higher in Chinese traditional medicine group than those in metformin and cyproterone groups.There was significant difference between Chinese traditional medicine group and cyproterone group(P
