Several kinds of column chromatography method were used to investigate the chemical constituents of the leaves of Lophatherum gracile. The structures of the isolated compounds were identified based on their physicochemical properties and spectral data. A new flavone C-glycoside was isolated and its structure was identified as 3'-methoxyl-luteolin 6-C-beta-D-galactopyranosiduronic acid (1 --> 2) -alpha-L-arabinopyranoside (1).

Objective:To establish a method for the determination of omeprazole delayed release capsules and investigate the be-havior of reference preparations to provide experimental basis for generic drugs quality consistency evaluation. Methods:According to the first dissolution method (basket method) stated in 0. 931 of Chinese Pharmacopeia (2015 edition), the type of release media, solu-bility and stability of omeprazole in different media, effect of different treatment methods on the drug adsorption in the solution, differ-ent rotation speed and the methodology of ultraviolet spectrophotometry were investigated. Results:The rotation speed was 75 r·min-1 with the dissolution medium volume of 900 ml. The dissolution profiles of omeprazole delayed release capsules in three different media ( pH 6. 0 phosphate buffer, pH 6. 8 phosphate buffer and water containing 3% Tween-80) were determined with online filteration. The solubility of omeprazole in the different media was 0. 123, 0. 078 and 0. 275 mg·ml-1 , respectively. The results showed that ome-prazole was degraded 44%, 8% and 14% in 2 h in the above three release media, and degraded up to 43% in 6 h in water containing 3% Tween-80. The linear of omeprazole was 0. 209 4-20. 94, 0. 204 8-20. 48 and 0. 2016-20. 16 μg·ml-1 with the average recovery of 99.3% (RSD=0.7%,n=12), 99.7% (RSD=0.9%,n=12) and 99.5% (RSD=0.6%,n=12) respectively in the three media. Conclusion:The method is accurate and reliable, which can be used to study the quality consistency of omeprazole delayed re-lease capsules.

In order to obtain higher L-lactic acid yield industrial strain, the original strain Rhizopus oryzae PW352 was mutated by means of N+ ions implantation and a mutant strain Rhizopus oryzae RE3303 was obtained. Its lactic acid yield was increased by 75% than that of the original one. The acid producing condition was optimized by orthogonal design. The concentration of L-lactic acid reached to 131～136g/L and the conversion rate of glucose was as high as 86%～90% under the optimum condition.

SMART-RACE was performed after isolating the total RNA of Armillariella tabescens to amplify the full-length cDNA of arabinosidase (GenBank Accession No. AJ620046). Bioinformatics analysis was used to analyze the code frame of arabinosidase, to predict its structure and function. Recombinant plasmid pPIC9-AF was constructed and then electroporated into methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris GS115. The secreted 6 ? His fusion protein was purified to analyze its enzymology property. This arabinosidase had high activity at 30-35℃ under acid condition, and was stable within wide range of pH and temperature. It maintained about 80% activity at the range of pH4. 0-8.0 and 20-40℃,wider than many other cloned arabinosidase. So it was worthy to go step further to study this enzyme, and recombinant expression provided a chance of highly expressing arabinosidase.

AIM: To investigate serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level in patients with bladder transitional cell carcinoma(BTCC) and its clinical significance. METHODS: ELISA method was used to examine the serum VEGF level in 42 cases of bladder transitional cell carcinoma and in 10 cases of normal people as control. The change of VEGF in blood of the pre-operation and post-operation patients with BTCC was also compared. RESULTS: The VEGF level in blood of the patients was higher than that of the normal people, in spite of pre-operation, post-chemotherapy, and post-operation, but VEGF level decreased obviously after chemotherapy or operation. In addition, the plasma VEGF level was related to the grade and invasion of tumor. CONCLUSION: Detecting serum VEGF level can help us to assess the change of tumor and therapeutic effect.

OBJECTIVETo compare the therapeutic effects of acupuncture and Motilium on diabetic gastroparesis (DGP).

METHODSSeventy-two cases of DGP were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group were treated with needling method for harmonizing spleen-stomach as main, with Quchi (LI 11), Hegu (LI 4), Zhongwan (CV 12), Zusanli (ST 36), Fenglong (ST 40), Yinlingquan (SP 9), Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Xuehai (SP 10), Diji (SP 8), and others selected, twice each day, 10 days constituting one course, with an in terval of 2 days; the control group were treated with oral administration of Motilium 10 mg, 3 times each day, 30 min before meals.

RESULTSThe total effective rate of 91.7% in the treatment group was better than 77.8% in the control group (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe therapeutic effect of the needling method for harmonizing spleen-stomach on diabetic gastroparesis is better than that of Motilium.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of pemetrexed disodium, carboplatin and psychological intervention in the treatment of elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Methods 92 cases of elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer from February 2015 to February 2017 were randomly divided into study group (n=46) and control group (n=46) by the single and double number (hospital admission order).The control group was treated with carboplatin and pemetrexed disodium treatment, the study group was treated with carboplatin and pemetrexed disodium, combined with psychological intervention treatment, effects of treatment in elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer between two groups were recorded. Results The total effective rate of the study group (67.39%) was significantly higher than the control group (47.83%)with statistical significance (P<0.05), it suggested that the clinical efficacy of the study group in elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer is better. Conclusion The application of pemetrexed disodium, carboplatin, combined with psychological intervention treatment for elderly patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients could significantly improve clinical efficacy, has positive significance to guarantee the quality of life of patients and life safety.

OBJECTIVETo determine the possible difference in vasodialtation effect of quercetin and rutin.

METHODSThe isolated rat thoracic aorta was treated with phenylephrine (PE), and the effects of quercetin and rutin on the preconstricted aorta rings with or without endothelium were determined by organ bath technique. Nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-N(G)-nitroarginine methyl-ester (L-NAME), guanylyl cyclase inhibitor methylene blue, cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin were used to explore the mechanism.

RESULTSQuercetin (10-160 micromol/L) caused vasorelaxation of aorta rings preconstricted with PE in endothelium-intact and denuded aorta rings in a dose-dependent manner. Rutin(10-160 micromol/L) caused dose-dependent vasorelaxation in endothelium-intact rings preconstricted with phenylephrine, but not in denuded aorta rings. The maximal response (Rmax) values calculated from vasorelaxation curves of quercetin and rutin were (77.20+/-6.11)% and (44.28+/-7.48)%, respectively. There was no difference between median effective concentration (EC(50)) values of quercetin and rutin. Pretreatment with L-NAME (0.1 mmol/L) abolished the vasorelaxation by rutin,but did not influence the vasodilating effect of quercetin in endothelium-intact rings. Pretreatment with methylene blue (10 mmol/L) canceled the vasorelaxation both by quercetin and rutin. Pretreatment with indomethacin (10 micromol/L) attenuated the vasodilatation of quercetin, but did not affect the vascular effect of rutin.

CONCLUSIONThe vasodilatation effect of quercetin is more potent than rutin. The vasodilatation effect of quercetin might be mediated by guanylyl cyclase and cyclooxygenase-dependent pathway, while the vasodilatation by rutin might be via nitric oxide-guanylyl cyclase pathway.
