OBJECTIVE: To optimize the ethanol extract technology of Liaojin membranes. METHODS: Alcohol extract rate and Emodin content were taken as the indexes for investigation and orthogonal test was carried out to investigate the effects of three extracting factors (alcohol density, alcohol amount and extracting time) on the extract technology. RESULTS: The optimum extract technology was A2B2C2, i.e. adding 70% alcohol which was 6 times the quantity of medicine and extracting twice (1.5h the first time and 1h the second time). CONCLUSION: The optimized ethanol extracttechnology for Liaojin membranes is simple, rapid and accurate, and serves as theoretic basis for the industrialized production of this preparation.

Aim To establish diarrhea-predominant IBS SD rat model and appraise its intestinal tract.Method The postnatal rat of 8~21 days were given the successive stimulation of the inflammation inside the colon(rectum abouchement 0.087 mol?L-1 acetic acid 0.5 ml)to replicate the animal model of the IBS visceral hypersensitive.The change of IBS SD rat model organ sensitivity was studied,and the change of threshold of pain at ectocolon of model rat was observed,as well as the influence of excised intestinal canal systaltic motion with convulsion-induced agent for model rat.Results Model group was obviously lower than normal group with pressure threshold value of raise abdomen and extrados in the eighth week and the sixth week(P

Objective To observe the effect of Changji’an Prescription (CP) on depressing the mast cells in the irritable bowel syndrome(IBS)rats. Methods The postnatal rats aged 8～21 days were given continous inflammation stimulation inside the colon to replicate the animal model of the IBS. The number of mast cells and their degranulation were observed by modified Toluidine Blue staining method under light microscope and electron microscope.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate therapeutic efficacy and safety of Compound kushen colon-release capsule versus related chemical drugs in treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC).METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, China Journal Full-text Database (CJFD), VIP, CBM and Wanfang database, RCTs about therapeutic efficacy (response rate, TCM syndrome, therapeutic efficacy of mucosal lesion) and safety (the incidence of ADR) of Compound kushen enteric-release capsule versus related chemical drugs in the treatment of UC were collected. Meta-analysis was conducted by using Rev Man 5. 3 statistical software after data extraction and quality evaluation with Cochrane 5. 1. 0. RESULTS: A total of 9 RCTs were included, involving 649 patients. The results of Meta-analysis showed that response rate [OR=2. 16, 95％CI(1. 28, 3. 63), P=0. 004] and therapeutic efficacy of mucosal lesion [OR=2. 42, 95％ CI(1. 07, 5. 47), P=0. 03] of Compound kushen colon-release capsule were significantly higher than that of chemical drugs in the treatment of UC, with statistical significance. There was no statistical significance in therapeutic efficacy of TCM syndrome [OR=1. 70, 95％CI(0. 87, 3. 32), P=0. 12] or the incidence of ADR between 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS: Therapeutic efficacy of Compound kushen colon-release capsule is better than that of related chemical drugs in the treatment of UC with similar safety.

OBJECTIVETo optimize the methods for genetic detection and prenatal diagnosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

METHODSDenaturing high-performance liquid chromatography (DHPLC), multiplex PCR (mPCR), sequencing and other molecular techniques were used in combination for molecular diagnosis of 8 cases diagnosed as DMD.

RESULTSAmong the 8 cases, 4 have carried large deletions, 3 have point mutations, among which 6 were of de novo type. Prenatal diagnosis were offered for 5 families, the results showed that none of the fetuses had carried large deletions or point mutations. The pregnancies had continued and healthy babies were born.

CONCLUSIONCombined use of short tandem repeat, DHPLC, mPCR and sequencing can improve the detection of DMD gene mutations. By establishing and optimizing genetic and prenatal diagnostic methods, accurate genetic counseling can be provided for families affected with DMD.

OBJECTIVE To identify the chemical constituents of the modified Yupingfengsan formula. METHODS UPLC-Q- Exactive Orbitrap-MS technology was adopted. The separation was performed on Waters BEH C18 column with acetonitrile （A）-0.1% formic acid solution （B） as mobile phase for gradient elution. The heating electrospray ionization was used for positive and negative ion mode scanning. The scanning range was m/z 50-1 500， and the spray voltage was 2 kV （positive ion mode） and 1.5 kV （negative ion mode）. The information of chemical constituents of modified Yupingfengsan formula was collected through literature review to establish a database； the structure of the constituent was identified based on the above database， relevant literature， and chromatography and mass spectrometry information of reference standards. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Totally 114 chemical constituents were identified from modified Yupingfengsan formula， including 31 flavonoids， 39 phenylpropanoids， 5 saponins， 8 terpenoids， 3 chromones， 3 curcuminoids， etc. Based on the comparison of reference standards， 8 constituents were ultimately determined， including magnoflorine， calycosin， calycosin glycoside， cimifugin， 5-O-methylvisammioside， sec-O- glucosylhamaudol， luteolin and mangiferin. These constituents mainly involved glycosylation cleavage， retro Diels-Alder fragmentation， glycosylation loss， neutral molecule loss and other fragmentation pathways.

OBJECTIVE To establish HPLC characteristic chro matogram of Jianpi yifei biyan prescription standard decoction ， to select the quality control index components and determine their contents. METHODS HPLC method combined with Similarity Evaluation System of TCM Chromatographic Fingerprint （2004 edition）were used to establish the characteristic chromatogram of 10 batches of Jianpi yifei biyan prescription standard decoction ；the similarity evaluation and common peaks identification were also carried out. Using common peak area of characteristic chromatogram as variables ，SPSS 26.0 software and SIMCA 14.1 software were used to perfor m cluster analysis （CA），principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA）；differential components with variable important i n pro jection（VIP）value greater than 1.5 were screened；the contents of cimifugin and differential components were determined by the same method. RESULTS A total of 24 common characteristic peaks were identified ， and the similarities of 10 batches of samples were higher than 0.960；eight characteristic peaks were identified by comparison with reference substance. CA and PCA results revealed that the samples were classified into 3 categories.OPLS-DA analysis showed that 3 components with VIP value greater than 1.5， which were prim-O-glucosylcimifugin （peak 2），calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside （peak 4） and 5-O-methylvisammioside （peak 6） in descending order. The linear ranges of prim- O- glucosylcimifugin，calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside，cimifugin and 5-O-methylvisammioside were 0.010 7-0.213 0，0.007 8- 0.156 0，0.008 0-0.160 0，0.009 8-0.195 0 μg（r＞0.999），respectively. RSD values of precision ，repeatability and stability tests （24 h） were all less than 2％. Average recoveries were 105.98％（RSD＝1.75％，n＝6），98.06％（RSD＝3.87％，n＝6），96.38％（RSD＝ 4.03％ ，n＝6） and 104.17％（RSD＝1.27％ ，n＝6）. The contents of the above 4 components in 10 batches of samples were 12.12-18.87，3.86-6.40，3.10-4.27 and 11.17-15.79 μ g/mL，respectively. CONCLUSIONS The established HPLC characteristic chromatographic method is stable and feasible ，it can be used for the quality control of Jianpi yifei biyan prescription standard decoction. Prim- O-glucosylcimifugin，calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside，cimifugin and 5-O-methylvisammioside can be used as the index components for quality control of the standard decoction.
