Objective To optimize the extraction procedures of compound Three-Flower-Tea (CTFT) by orthogonal design. Methods After having established the methods of quantifying the chlorogenic acid by TLC-UV, the orthogonal design was used to select the best extraction procedures, using chlorogenic acid content and extract yield as the measuring index, through controlling four different factors, naming extraction temperature (A), extraction time (B), watervolume added (C) and extraction number of times (D), and three levels at each factor. Result The effective factors which influenced the extraction procedures were A, C and D. Conclusion The optimum extraction procedures for CTFT should be 15-fold water volume, three-time decocting with 20 minutes per time at temperature of 100 ℃.

Objective To investigate effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on pharmacokinetics (PK) of cephradine (CED).Methods DM model was induced by iv.alloxan 60 mg·kg-1.A reversed phase HPLC internal standard method was developed for measurement of CED plasma concentration.After blood collection,rats were sacrificed to collect kidneys for calculating kidney index(KW/BW).DM and normal control (CTL) rats were randomly assigned to receive iv.or ig.CED at a dose of 180 or 90 mg·kg-1.The 3p97 program was used to calculate PK parameters.Results The developed HPLC method was validated to have high specificity,precision,recovery and good storage stability,and met requirements for PK study of CED.The CED in rats of both DM and CTL groups showed the iv.two-compartment PK and ig.one-compartment PK and followed the first-order kinetics.Following iv.dosing,a remarkably decreased t1/2β and MRT,increased CLt were evident in DM group as compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).After ig dosing,a significant decrease in t1/2k and t a remarkable increase in CLt and Cm=were observed for DM group as compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).The DM rats showed a trend of decreased t1/2ka vs CTL rats.There was no significant difference in the oral bioavailability between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).KW and KW/BW in DM group were increased remarkably compared with CTL group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The DM vs CTL results in faster absorption and elimination of CED in rats,but does not have significantly affect in oral bioavailability.The compensatory hypertrophy and hyperfunction of early-stage diabetic kidneys may constitute one of causes of quick elimination of CED in rats with DM.

ObjectiveTo observe the relationship between neuronal function score and pathological changes of fluid percussion brain injury in rats and to explore their clinical significances.MethodsThe fluid percussion models of brain injury in rats were established by using the improved device with three kinds impact pressure such as 0.1 MPa,0.2 MPa,0.3 MPa,and vital signs and mortality rate were observed.Behavior changes,brain water content,histological changes were observed by Shapira and Wahld method,dry-wet measure,light microscopy at 1 h,6 h,12 h,24 h,3 d and 7 d after operation respectively.ResultsThe animals accepted impact pressure of 0.1 MPa showed temporary hypopnea with mortality rate of 2.08％,those of 0.2 MPa suffered apnoea of ( 10.88 ±2.69 ) s with mortality rate of 4.17％ and those of 0.3 MPa suffered apnoea of ( 20.60 ± 3.02 ) s with mortality rate of 16.67％.As the impact pressure increased,nervous function score minimumly decreased to (7.17 ±0.75) of 0.1 MPa group,(4.83 ± 0.75 ) of 0.2 MPa group and (2.67 ± 0.52) of 0.3 MPa group respectively,and recovered more slowly.Brain water content maximumly reached to (81.12 ± 0.03 )％,(82.74 ± 1.11 )％ and (83.89± 0.04) ％ at time point of 24 h respectively.The brain injury was involved in the outer layer of cerebral cortex,hippocampal formation and brain stem respectively and histological observation verified above findings.Conclusion Light,moderate and heavy fluid percussion brain injury in rats have more and more low nervous function scores,which have positive relationship with more and more serious pathological changes.

Objective To detect and type herpes simplex virus (HSV) in genital lesions of the patients attending STD clinic. Methods Clinical data were collected and analyzed from patients with anogenital non-herpetic lesions including induration or furuncle, fissure, folliculitis, single ulcer and so on. HSV was detected and typed by culture and PCR with specimens taken from these lesions. Results One hundred and five cases were recruited in this study. Among them, 18 cases presented induration (furuncle), 15 fissure, 16 folliculitis, 7 abrasion, 12 single ulcer, 25 nonspecific erythema and 12 balanoposthitis with edema and exudation. HSV was found in 33.3%(6/18), 20%(3/15), 37.5%(6/16), 28.6%(2/7), 33.3%(4/12), 20%(5/25) and 50%(6/12) of these lesions, repectively, by PCR, while in 22.2%(4/18), 13.3%(2/15), 25%(4/16), 14.3%(1/7), 33.3%(4/12), 8%(2/25) and 41.7%(5/12), repectively, by viral culture. The positive rates of HSV from all these non-herpetic lesions were 30.5% (32/105) and 21% (22/105), respectively (? = 0.095, P = 0.114), by PCR and viral culture. The results of HSV typing were consistent between PCR and immunofluorescence with type-specific monoclonal antibodies. Among those with HSV infections, HSV-1 infection acounted for 9.4% (3/32), and HSV-2 90.6% (29/32). Conclusions The clinical manifestations of genital HSV infections vary, and HSV could be isolated from lesions of induration (furuncle), fissure, folliculitis, abrasion, single ulcer, nonspecific erythema and balanoposthitis with edema and exudation. HSV-2 is the predominant type.

Object To study the effects of WUZI SIWU GUASHITANG (WT) against multi glycosides of Tripterygium wilfordii Hook. f. (GTW) induced genital system toxicity in male rats and its mechanism. Methods Male rats in treatment groups were treated respectively with a 80 days oral administration of large , middle and small doses of WT plus a fixed dose of GTW. The rats as control were treated with GTW alone or saline. Thereafter, the changes in testis organ index, the number of spermatozoa, the rate of movable spermatozoa and the structure of spermatogenic cell epithlium were observed and the serum testosterone level was determined by IRMA. Then the comparison was made between treatment and control groups as to above variables. Results As compared with GTW group, large or middle dose of WT significantly increased the weight of testis, the number of spermatozoa and the rate of movable spermatozoa. Large dose of WT could relieve the damage of GTW to the spermatogenic cell epithelium completely and keep the serum testosterone at normal level. Conclusion The combined use of GTW with WT is very useful in relief of GTW induced adverse reactions of genital system in male rats. The mechanism by which WT exerts the counteractive effects is related to protecting the spermatogenic cell epithelium from being damaged by GTW, and keeping the serum testosterone at normal level.
