OBJECTIVE：To establish the method for content determination of 17 kinds of amino acids in Sargassum and its adulterants，and to carry out cluster analysis ，so as to provide reference for quality control of Sargassum. METHODS ：Totally of 18 batches of sample （S1-S6 as certified product ，S7-S18 as adulterants ）were collected. After acid hydrolysis ，amino acids contents were detected by using automatic amino acid analyzer. The separation was performed on LCAK 06/Na sulfonic acid cation exchange resin column with mobile phase consisted of buffer-regeneration system （gradient elution ）at the flow rate of 0.45 mL/min （elution pump ）and 0.25 mL/min（derivative pump ）. The detection wavelengths were set at 440 nm（proline）and 570 nm（other amino acids ），and the sample size volume was 50 μL. PASW Statistics 18.0 software was used ，and cluster analysis was conducted by using group connection method of cluster analysis with “square Euclidean distance ”as the measurement standard. RESULTS ：17 kinds of amino acids were well separated without interference from blank sample. The linear relationship between mass concentration and peak area was good （all r were over 0.998），and the upper and lower limits of the linear range were 48.06 μg/L （cystine）and 1.501 μg/L（glycine），respectively；RSDs of precision ，reproducibility and stability tests were lower than 2％. The average recoveries were between 90.60％-101.56％（RSDs were 0.88％-2.15％，n＝6）. 17 kinds of amino acids were detected in Sargassum and its adulterants ，among which the contents of glutamic acid ，aspartic acid ，leucine，alanine，glycine and valine were relatively high . Results of cluster analysis showed that 18 batches of sample were clustered into 4 categories，i.e. S 1-S6 into one category；S7-S9 into one category ；S10-S12，S16-S18 into one category ；S13-S15 into one category ；which was consistent with the identification result of Sargassum and its adulterants . CONCLUSIONS ：The method is simple ， rapid， accurate and reproducible，and can be used for the quantitative analysis and identification of amino acids in Sargassum and adulterants.

Objective: To study the relations between neck/shoulder or low back pain and their daily behavioral habits among middle school students in Shenzhen. Methods: We randomly chose 3 952 students from 10 high schools in Shenzhen to complete the questionnaires. Data was gathered and analyzed, using the IBM SPSS 23.0. Results: Of the 3 952 participants, 20.3% had neck/shoulder pain and 15.2% had low back pain. Among students experienced neck/shoulder pain, female (25.3%), high school (24.5%) and boarding students (24.4%) experienced higher rates of neck/shoulder pain (P<0.05). Female students (17.9%) also had higher rate of low back pain (P<0.05). Results from logistic regression analysis showed that factors as: gender, type of school, taking naps on the desk, staying up late, self-perceived stress from learning, overloading homework, time spent on mobile phone and TV, spending long time on computer etc. were related to the neck/shoulder pain (P<0.05). Factors as: gender, naps on the desk, stay up late, self-perceived stress, overloading homework, time spent on mobile phone and TV etc., were related to low back pain (P<0.05). Conclusion: Neck/shoulder pain and low back pain were both commonly seen while high self-perceived stress, sedentary behaviors and poor sleeping habits were associated with both neck/shoulder and low back pain in high school students in Shenzhen.

OBJECTIVE: The brain TXA(2) and PGI(2) levels in a new rodent model of impact acceleration diffuse brain injury alone and with hypotention and hyperthermia in combination were observed to look into the relationship between TXA(2), PGI(2) levels and different types of head injury. METHODS: Thirty-two SD rats were randomized into sham, head injury alone, secondary insult alone and head injury with secondary insult groups. At 4 hours after injury or experiment, all the rats were decapitated and their brains were sampled for radioimmunoassay (RIA) measurement. RESULTS: Compared with that of sham group there were no changes in TXA(2) and PGI(2) levels in injury alone group while there was a significant augmentation in PGI(2) level in insult alone group. Both TXA(2) and PGI(2) level in injury with secondary insult group increased significantly in comparison with that of sham at 4 hours postimpact. CONCLUSIONS: PGI(2) providing energy and precursors to the injured tissue and producing some vasoactive arachidonic products, especially TXA(2), is closely connected to the severity of brain damage.

OBJECTIVE: To study the changes of brain TXA(2) and PGI(2) levels in a new rodent model of impact acceleration diffuse brain injury with hypotention and hypoxia and the effect of diaspirin cross linked hemoglobin solution (DCLHb) on brain TXA(2) and PGI(2) levels. METHODS: Thirty-two male SD rats were randomized into sham, head injury alone, head injury with secondary insults and injury with insults followed by DCLHb administration groups. Animals were physiologically monitored throughout the experiment and the prostanoids were measured via radioimmunoassay (RIA). RESULTS: There were no changes in TXB(2) and 6-keto-PGF1alpha (stable metabolites of TXA(2) and PGI(2)) levels in injury alone group while TXB(2) level in secondary insults group elevated significantly and both TXB(2) and 6-keto-PGF1alpha levels in injury with insults followed by DCLHb administration augmented significantly in comparison with the corresponding value of sham at 4 h postimpact. CONCLUSIONS: The only increase in TXA(2) level in secondary insults rats suggests that there may be both thrombotic episodes and vasoconstriction leading to focal increase in micro-circulatory resistance which contributes to a decreased focal cerebral blood flow (CBF). And it is hypothesed that DCLHb may exert its protective properties through increasing PGI(2) production in injured brain by affecting CBF and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP).

OBJECTIVE: To establish a model of chronic nephritis induced by doxorubicin and a model of RAW264.7 cell inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS), and to study the protective effect of the Cybister lateralimarginalia extract CL on the renal function of rats with chronic nephritis induced by doxorubicin and its anti-inflammatory effect. METHODS: A rat model of chronic nephritis was established by a single intravenous injection of doxorubicin (6 mg·kg-1). After 2 weeks of modeling, normal control group and model control group were given normal saline while other groups were given intragastric administration of CL high and low dose, Shenyankangfu tablets and prednisone acetate respectively. The body weight of the rats was recorded every day. The 24 h urine was collected every weekend and the urine protein content was measured. After the last administration, the rats were dissected the next day, and the kidney and liver indexes were calculated. The levels of TP, ALB, TC, TG, BUN and Scr in serum were determined. The pathological changes of kidney tissues were observed. The lipopolysaccharide (LPS 10 μg·mL-1) was used to induce the RAW264.7 cell inflammation model. PBS was given to the normal control group and the model control group while CL low, medium and high dose were given to other groups respectively. The levels of TNF-α and iNOS in the supernatant of cells were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(Elisa). RESULTS: Compared with the normal control group, the content of 24 h urine protein, the levels of TC, TG, BUN and Scr in serum, kidney index and liver index were significantly increased in the model control group (P<0.01 or P<0.05), but the body weight of rats, the levels of TP and ALB in serum were significantly decreased (P<0.01 or P<0.05). The secretion of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α and iNOS were significantly increase in RAW264.7 cells with inflammatory induced by LPS (P<0.01). Compared with the model control group, the content of 24 h urine protein and the levels of TC, TG, BUN and Scr in serum were significantly decreased in the Shenyankangfu group, the prednisone acetate group and the CL group(P<0.01 or P<0.05), but the body weight of rats, the levels of TP and ALB in serum were significantly increased (P<0.01 or P<0.05); the pathological condition of renal tissue was improved to some extent. Each dose of CL could reduce the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α and iNOS in RAW264.7 cells with inflammatory induced by LPS (P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The extract of Cybister lateralimarginalia has an obvious anti-inflammatory effect and has a good protective effect on chronic nephritis in rats.

Objective To study the analgesic, activating blood and resolving stasis effect of Ento-II plastic. Methods Hot plate procedure and torsion body method were used as analgesic experimental model to observe the analgesic effect of Ento-II plastic. The acute blood stasis rats experimental model was established through rat subcutaneous injection of high-dose adrenaline hydrochloride and soaked in ice water. Then, the blood stasis focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion models were established by suture method on the rats. The hemorrheologic indicators were determined. Results Compared with control group, Ento-II plastic could significantly prolong pain thresholds in mice at 30, 60, and 90 min after final administration (P < 0.01). Ento-II plastics 20, 10, and 5 mg/kg dose groups could reduce aceticacid-induced mice writhing times and prolong the incubation period (P < 0.01). The experimental result of rats blood stasis focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion at 24 h after reperfusion showed that Ento-II plastics 6.67, 3.33, and 1.67 mg/kg dose groups could obviously reduce the neurological function score and whole blood viscosity (P < 0.01). 3.33 mg/kg dose group could significantly reduce plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index, and casson viscosity (P < 0.05). The effect were similar to that of ligustrazine. 6.67 and 3.33 mg/kg dose groups could significantly reduce casson viscosity (P < 0.01). Conclusion Ento-II plastic has obvious analgesic effect and activating blood and resolving stasis effect.
