Objective To explore the proper proportion of effective fractions in Shengmaisan(saponins of Radix ginseng,saponins of Radix ophiopogonis,Lignans of Fructus schisandrae)in different anoxia models.Methods Acute cerebral hypoxia was induced by sodium nitrite and decapitation in mice,and the orthogonal design was used in these two models to find the proper proportion of three effective fractions.The gasping time of the mice,which were decapitated was observed to compare the anti-anoxia effects of XZF with other clinical drugs,and cerebral ischemic reperfusion injury model of mice was also used to study the effect of XZF on related biochemical index.Results XZF(the proportion of saponins of Radix ginseng,saponins of Radix ophiopogonis,Lignans of Fructus schisandrae as 7 ∶ 2 ∶ 6)significantly prolonged the gasping time,and decreased brain nitrogen monoxidum(NO)content after reperfusion of the mice at dosages of 50 mg/kg and 150mg/kg.Meanwhile,XZF also reduced malondialdehyde(MDA)content and increased superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity at the higher dosage.Conclusion XZF obtained by experimental screening exerts a significant protective effect on cerebral ischemia injury in mice,which provide some pharmacological evidence for further development of new modern Chinese drug composed with effective fractions for cerebral vascular diseases.

Object To study the hemolytic effect of total saponins from Ginseng (Gs), Radix Ophiopogonis (ROs) and Shengmaisan, a compound preparation of the two saponins, and the antihemolytic effect of antioxidants on hemolysis. Methods The percentage of hemolysis was indirectly calculated by measured cyanomethemoglobin, and morphological changes of red blood cells (RBCs) was examined by light microscope. Results Gs did not lead to hemolysis while both ROs and Shengmaisan induced lysis in a concentration dependent manner. RBCs deformation can be observed by light microscopic study. The hemolysis was partly inhibited by addition of glucose or antioxidants including mannitol and ?-tocopherol. Conclusion The intensity of hemolytic effect varied with different saponins present in the compound preparation, and may be associated with the type of saponin and partly due to its ability to enhance lipid preoxidation of RBCs membrane.

Objective To investigate the correlation between ADAM33 T1, S2 gene polymorphism and Bronchial asthma risk in china. Methods We retrived the relevant published studies about ADAM33 T1, S2 gene polymorphism and bronchial asthma risk. Then we divided the population into Chinese and other Asian population. Odds ratio (OR) of Case group and control group was selected as the effect index. Stata 11.0 software was used to calculate heterogeneity test, ORs and 95%CI of two areas, and gave the forest plot and funnel plot of meta results. Results A total of 27 studies were included in this analysis,18 studies in ADAM33 T1 site were 3881 cases in case group, and 3780 cases in control group;and 14 studies in ADAM33 S2 site were 3222 cases in case group, and 3513 cases in control group. Additive model, dominant model, recessive model of ADAM33 T1 in Chinese had association with the susceptibility of bronchial asthma. The results were OR=1.488, 95% CI:1.002-2.167 in Additive model, OR=1.619, 95%CI:1.059-2.475 in dominant model;OR=2.523, 95%CI:1.910-3.333 in recessive model. Three models of ADAM33 T1 in other Asian country had no association with the susceptibility of Bronchial Asthma. Three gene model of ADAM33 S2 in Asian had no association with bronchial asthma susceptibility. Except ADAM33 T1 polymorphism in recessive model, other mode of T1, S2 had no publication bias in Chinese population. Conclusion There are association between ADAM33 T1 gene polymorphism and bronchial asthma, but ADAM33 S2 gene polymorphism and bronchial asthma have no association in Chinese population.

The study aims to develop a unified method to determine seven phenolic acids (neochlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, 4-caffeoylquinic acid, caffeic acid, isochlorogenic acid B, isochlorogenic acid A and isochlorogenic acid C) contained in honeysuckle flower that is the monarch drug of all the eight Yinqiao Jiedu serial preparations using quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS). Firstly, chlorogenic acid was used as a reference to get the average relative correction factors (RCFs) of the other phenolic acids in ratios to the reference; columns and instruments from different companies were used to validate the durability of the achieved RCFs in different levels of standard solutions; and honeysuckle flower extract was used as the reference substance to fix the positions of chromatographic peaks. Secondly, the contents of seven phenolic acids in eight different Yinqiao Jiedu serial preparations samples were calculated based on the RCFs durability. Finally, the quantitative results were compared between QAMS and the external standard (ES) method. The results have showed that the durability of the achieved RCFs is good (RSD during 0.80% - 2.56%), and there are no differences between the quantitative results of QAMS and ES (the relative average deviation < 0.93%). So it can be successfully used to the quantitative control of honeysuckle flower principally prescribed in Yinqiao Jiedu serial preparations.
