BACKGROUND: It has been considered that Cestrum nocturnum L. (CNL) has the effects of antiarrhythmia, local anesthesia and central inhibition.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the analgesic effect of CNL extract on mice,so as to find new drugs for clinical treatment of pain.DESIGN: A randomized control observation.SETTING: Center of Modern Education and Department of Pharmacology,Gannan Medical College.MATERIALS: The experiments were carried out in the laboratory of scientific research center, Gannan Medical College between March and April in 2005. ① A total of 150 healthy adult Kunming mice were used in four independent experiments. ② Drugs: CNL extract was provided by the Department of Phytochemistry, Shenyang Pharmaceutical University (batch number: 2002080901), morphine hydrochloride injection by Shenyang No.1Pharmaceutical Factory (batch number: 000305), and naloxone hydrochloride injection by Yanqiao (Hunan) Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., (batch number:20021109).METHODS: ① Effects of CNL extract on writhing times induced by acetic acid: Forty female mice were randomly divided into four groups with10 mice in each, and they were treated with intraperitoneal injections of 0.02 mL/g saline, 0.10 and 0.20 mg/g CNL extract and 0.10 mg/g aminophenazone respectively. The intraperineal injection of 6 g/L glacial acetic acid was given after 15 minutes. The writhing times of mice within 15 minutes were observed and recorded in each group. ② Effects of CNL extract on the pain induced by hot pla in mice: Forty female mice were randomly divided into four groups with 10 mice in each, and they were treated with intraperineal injections of 0.02 mL/g saline, 0. 10 and 0.20 mg/g CNL extract and 0.10 mg/g morphine respectively. The pain responses were detected at 15, 30 and 60 minutes after administration. ③ The antagonistic effect of naloxone on morphine and CNL extract to the pain induced by hot plate in mice: Thirty female mice were randomly divided into three groups ith 10 mice in each group, and they were given intraperitoneal injections of 0.02 mL/g saline, naloxone 0.004 mg/g +morphine 0.01 mg/g and naloxone 0.004 mg/g+CNL extract 0.01 mg/g respectively. The pain responses were detected at 15, 30 and 60 minutes after administration respectively. ④ Effects of CNL extract on electrostimulation induced pain in mice: Forty mice were randomly divided into four groups with 10 mice in ach group, and they were administrated with intraperineal injections of 0.02 mL/g saline, 0.10 and 0.20 mg/g CNL extract and 1 g/L morphine respectively. Repeated electrostimulations were given at 20, 35, 50 and 70minutes after administration, and the pain responses were detected by means of electrostimulation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① Writhing times; ② Time for the pain response induced by hot plate; ③ Analgesic rate induced by electrostimulation.RESULTS: Totally 150 healthy adult Kunming mice were used in the four independent experiments, and all were involved in the analysis of results. ①Writhing times in the mice: 0.10 and 0.20 mg/g CNL extracts and 0.10 mg/g aminophenazone had very significant analgesic effects on writhing induced byacetic acid in mice, and the writhing times after administration were all fewer than those in the saline group (20.2±10.8, 14.5±7.6, 7.6±4.5,50.6±15.5, P ＜ 0.01), and the analgesic effects of CNL extract were dosedependently. ② Time for the pain response induced by hot plate: 0.10 and 0.20 mg/g CNL extracts had significant analgesic effects on the pain in duced by hot plate, and the time for pain sensation at 15, 30 and 60 minutes after administration were all longer than those in the saline group (P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0.01), and the analgesic effect was dose-dependently. The times for pain sensation at each time point after administration in the naloxone 0.004 mg/g+CNL extract 0.01 mg/g group were all longer than those in the saline group, but those were close between the naloxone 0.004 mg/g+morphine 0.01 mg/g group and the saline group. ③ Analgesic rate induced by electrostimulation in the mice: The analgesic rates at20, 35, 50 and 70minutes after administration in the CNL extract 0.10 and 0.20 mg/g groups were all higher than those in the saline group (P ＜ 0.01).CONCLUSION: Our data suggested that CNL extract has obvious analgesic effect, and the analgesic intensity is dose-dependently. Naloxone, an opiate receptor antagonist, can antagonize the analgesic effect of morphine,but cannot antagonize that of CNL extract on mice with pain induced by hot plate, which indicates that CNL extract exert its analgesic role not through binding with opiate receptor.

OBJECTIVETo examine the protective effect of Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (GbE) on learning and memory deficit induced by aluminum chloride (AlCl(3)), and explore its mechanisms.

METHODSThe rat models with learning and memory deficit were induced by administering via gastrogavage and drinking of AlCl(3) solution. And the model rats were treated with GbE at the dose of 50, 100, 200 mg/kg every day for 2 months accompanied with drinking of AlCl(3) solution, respectively. Their abilities of spatial learning and memory were tested by Morris water maze, and the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity in serum was assayed with chemical method, the AChE expression in hippocampus was observed by immunohistochemistry assay, and then quantitative analysis was done by BI 2000 image analysis system.

RESULTSLearning and memory deficit of rats could be induced by AlCl(3) solution (P < 0.01), and AChE expressions in rats hippocampus were increased (P < 0.01); GbE ameliorated learning and memory deficit and reduced AChE expression in rats hippocampus in a dose-dependent manner, while GbE significantly increased serum AChE activity at the dose of 200 mg/kg each day (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONGbE can ameliorate learning and memory deficit induced by AlCl(3), which may be due to its inhibition of the AChE expression in hippocampus.

Objective To discuss the distribution laws of TCM syndromes of early threatened abortion; To analyze the related factors of pregnancy outcome of early threatened abortion. Methods The study included 1010 hospital patients who were diagnosed as early threatened abortion. Excel2010 was used to establish database in order to collect general information such as the age, menstrual history, times of abortion and adverse pregnancy, incidence of solar term and pregnancy week, the type of TCM syndromes and the pregnancy outcome (at least 3 months after being out of hospital) of patients. The distribution laws of TCM syndromes, and related factors of pregnancy outcome were analyzed. Results Among the 1010 cases, 762 cases were with kidney deficiency syndrome (75.4%); followed by blood heat syndrome, a total of 178 cases, accounting for 17.6%; qi and blood deficiency syndrome, a total of 40 cases, accounting for 4%; blood stasis syndrome, a total of 15 cases, accounting for 1.5%; liver stagnation syndrome, a total of 15 cases, accounting for 1.5%. The distribution of TCM syndromes was statistical significance in the different age groups and the incidence of pregnancy week (P<0.01). But there was no statistical significance in menstrual history, times of abortion, times of adverse pregnancy, and the incidence of solar term (P>0.05). Among the 1010 cases, follow-up to 698 cases, 567 cases were successful pregnancies, accounting for 81.2% of the follow-up of patients; 131 cases were failed pregnancies, accounting for 18.8% of the follow-up of patients. In the study, it found that there was statistical significance between different age groups and pregnancy outcomes (P=0.026). The pregnancy outcomes were related to the age groups (P=0.012, OR=1.063), and it was not related to TCM syndromes, times of abortion, times of adverse pregnancy, menstruation, pregnancy week. Conclusion Kidney deficiency syndrome is the main syndrome of early threatened abortion. The distribution of TCM syndromes is related to the age group and the incidence of pregnancy week of patients. Age of patients is the related factor affecting the pregnancy outcome.

AlM:To analyze and compare the effect of femtosecond laser micro - incision corneal stromal lens excision ( SMlLE) and excimer laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASlK) in the treatment of myopia after operation, to explore the safety, operability and prediction of SMlLE.METHODS:ln this prospective clinical controlled study, 100 cases ( 200 eyes ) received SMlLE and 100 cases ( 200 eyes) undergone LASl in our hospital in the same period were selected. Uncorrected visual acuity, diopter, corrected visual acuity, slit lamp examination, intraocular pressure and corneal anterior segment OCT, corneal topography (Obscan ll) of two groups in 1d, 1wk, 1, 3, 6mo, 1a were compared. lndependent samples t test was used for data analysis.RESULTS:1) Postoperative slit lamp examination:after 1d in SMlLE group, there were less eyes had corneal layer between mild cloudy or edema; postoperative 1wk corneal layer disappeared, cornea became clear and transparent. 2 ) Postoperative vision recovery: 1d after operation, vision recovery in LASlK group was better than that in SMlLE group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 01), there were no significant differences at 1wk, 1, 3, 6mo, 1a after operation ( P>0. 05 ). 3 ) Obscan ll examination: graphics in the SMlLE group was more regular and placed in the center, no eccentric and irregular graphics, better than that in the LASlK group. 4) Anterior segment OCT examination:postoperative corneal flap in the SMlLE group was more uniform and accurate, but it was thin in the center and slightly thick the peripheral part in the LASlK groups. 5 ) Postoperative visual quality assessment used subjective questionnaire survey. The two groups had statistically significant difference on 4 points and 1 points (P<0. 05). Complains in the LASlK groups were more that that in the SMlLE group. While, no complain of the SMlLE group was higher than that of the LASlK group. Glare of postoperative patients with night vision and dark environment in the SMlLE group was better than that of the LASlK group.CONCLUSlON: SMlLE is safe, effective, stable and predictable for the correction of myopia.

To develop a LC-MS/MS method for the determination of five kinds of trace ginkgolic acids in diterpene ginkgolides meglumine injection materials, the column was Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse plus C18 (3.0 mm x 50 mm, 1.8 µm), and the mobile phase consisted of methanol-water (containing 0.2% formic acid) (95:5) at a flow rate of 0.5 mL · min(-1). The multiple reaction ion monitoring (MRM) with an ESI interface in the negative ion mode was selected. The results showed that the linear ranges of five kinds of ginkgolic acids were in the range of 0.2-36.0 µg · L(-1) (r ≥ 0.999 5). The lowest limit of quantification (LOQ) of ginkgo acid C13: 0, C15:1, C17:2, C15:0 and C17:1 were 0.18, 0.18, 0.21, 0.10 and 0.20 µg · L(-1), respectively. The average recovery was between 73.28% and 87.56%, and the average content of total ginkgolic acids in three batches of samples was in the range of 0.023-0.028 µg · g(-1), which was much lower than 2 µg · g(-1) prescribed in drug registration standards. This method is simple and rapid with high sensitivity, which can be used for the determination of five kinds of trace ginkgolic acids in diterpene ginkgolides meglumine injection materials.
