A near infrared spectroscopy ( NIRS) method was used for rapid quality evaluation of ferulic acid content in chrysanthemum morifolium cv. ( Chuju) continuous cropping soil. Standard leverage, studentized residual and Mahalanobis distance were calculated to eliminate abnormal samples. After the initial near infrared spectrum was treated by two second derivative and Norris smoothing filter noise, 6000-4000 cm-1 wave number range and 7 factors were chosen for partial least squares ( PLS) calibration model. The results showed that good correlation was presented between the calibration set/validation set and the values determined by high performance liquid chromatography, and the calibration correlation coefficient ( Rc ) and validation correlation coefficient ( Rcv ) were 0. 9914 and 0. 9935, respectively. Root mean square error of calibration (RMSEC), root mean square error of validation (RMSEP) and root mean square error of cross-validation (RMSECV) were 0. 484, 0. 539 and 0. 615, respectively. This method was accurate, reliable, simple, rapid and nondestructive, and could be applied to the fast analysis for ferulic acid in continuous cropping soil.

This study is to investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanism of prosapogenin A (PSA) on MCF7. MTT assay was performed to determine the inhibitory effect of PSA on MCF7 cells. PI/Hoechst 33342 double staining was used to detect cell apoptosis. RT-PCR was used to test the mRNA levels of STAT3, GLUT1, HK and PFKL. Western blotting was performed to determine the expression of STAT3 and pSTAT3 protein in MCF7 cells. The results showed that PSA could dose-dependently inhibit cell growth of MCF7 followed by IC50 of 9.65 micrmol x L(-1) and promote cell apoptosis of MCF7. Reduced mRNA levels of STAT3, HK and PFKL were observed in MCF7 cells treated with 5 micromol x L(-1) of PSA. PSA also decreased the level of pSTAT3 protein. STAT3 siRNA caused decrease of mRNA of GLUT1, HK and PFKL which indicated STAT3 could regulate the expressions of GLUT1, HK and PFKL. The results suggested that PSA could inhibit cell growth and promote cell apoptosis of MCF7 via inhibition of STAT3 and glycometabolism-related gene.

"Omics" and bioinformatics have brought new ideas to the study of traditional Chinese medicine. This study used metabonomics and network pharmacology to investigate the pharmacodynamic basis and regulation of Qishen Yiqi dropping pill (QDP) improving cardiac energy metabolism in rats with heart failure (HF). 1H NMR metabonomics analysis showed that eight metabolites, including carnitine, glutamine, creatine, proline, homocitrulline, lactic acid, taurine and alanine appeared significant callback after QDP treatment for HF. The results indicate that QDP regulates the metabolism of carbohydrate, lipid, ATP and protein. The animal experiment was conducted in accordance with the regulations of the Ethics Committee for Experimental Animal Management and Animal Welfare of Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. A "drug-component-target-disease" network was established using network pharmacology, and the "component-target" sub-network related to the above energy metabolism processes was extracted by combining metabonomics results. Results revealed 79 chemical compounds and 47 potential targets of QDP involved in the regulation of energy metabolism, and identified key chemical components including ursolic acid, notoginsenoside G, ginsenoside-Rh1, and core targets such as INS, PPARG, and AKT1. The results also demonstrated the complex multi-target and multi-component relationship between QDP and HF from the perspective of energy metabolism. The molecular docking technique verified a strong interaction between some targets and chemical compounds, with affinities less than -5 kcal·mol-1. The results of this study provide useful information for the clinical application, development, and utilization of QDP.

When albino rats were fed with high cholesterol diet or injected With a large dose of carbon tetrachloride or chloroform, severe fatty liver developed but without any morphological changes in the pancreas. However, when fatty liver was produced with a protein free diet, the atrophic change in the acinar cells was observed prior to fatty infiltration in the liver. No change was found in the islets of Langerhans.The presence of lipocaic factor as an internal secretion of the pancreas cannot be verified by these studies or by our previous works.

To study the chemical constituents of Veratrum dahuricum (Turcz.) Loes. f., a new aurone glycoside named as (Z)-7, 4'-dimethoxy-6-hydroxyl-aurone-4-O-β-glucopyranoside was isolated from the 95% ethanol extracts of the rhizomes and roots of Veratrum dahuricum (Turcz.) Loes. f. by repeated column chromatography on silica gel and recrystallization. Its structure was established by extensive spectroscopic analyses, and its cytotoxicities against HepG-2, MCF7 and A549 cell lines were measured in vitro.

AIM: To observe the changes in heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) expression in the lung after ischmia-reperfusion of hind limbs in rats.METHODS: Hind limbs ischemia was made by clamping infrarenal aorta with a microvascular clip and lung injury was made by following reperfusion. Lung tissue was obtained from the animals subjected to sham operation, 4 h ischemia without reperfusion and 4 h, 8 h, 16 h, 24 h, 48 h reperfusion following 4 h ischemia. The levels of HO-1 mRNA and protein were measured at different times by Northern blot and Western blot. Immunohistochemistry technique was used to determine the cell types responsible for limb ischemic reperfusion induced HO-1 expression. RESULTS: After ischemia-reperfusion of limbs, HO-1 mRNA increased by 4 h, reached a peak at 16 h, and returned toward baseline at 24-48 h. This time course correlated with increased HO-1 protein. Immunohistochemical studies showed HO-1expressed in a variety of cell types, including the airway epithelium, alveolar macrophages and vascular smooth muscular cells. There were no positive signals in sham group and ischemia group both in mRNA levels and protein levels. CONCLUSION: The expression of HO-1 in the lung is not induced by limb ischemia or sham operation, but induced by limb reperfusion after ischemia in rats.
