Objective To study the anti-cancer constituents from Tripterygium wilfordii. Methods Chemical constituents were isolated by repeated column chromatography (silica gel, Toyopearl HW-40 C and preparative HPLC), their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic methods, and the anti-cancer activity was screened by MTT method. Results Five diterpenes, 3-epi-triptobenzene B (Ⅰ), 3?, 14-dihydroxy-abieta-8, 11, 13-triene (triptobenzene B,Ⅱ), wilforol E (Ⅲ), triptohairic acid (Ⅳ), and 11-hydroxy-14-methoxy-18(4→3)-abeo-abietan-3, 8, 11, 13-tetraen-18-oic-acid (hypoglic acid, Ⅴ) were isolated from T. wilfordii. Conclusion Compound Ⅰ is a new compound named as triptobenzene L, compound Ⅳ is isolated for the first time. The compounds Ⅰ-Ⅴ show the positive anti-cancer effects on HeLa and L929 cell lines.

Resveratrol is a natural polyphenolic substance with a variety of bioactivities,such as anti-oxidation,anti-tumor and apoptosis induction.This paper summarized the recent research progress of resveratrol induced cancerous cell apoptosis,including human cervical cancer HeLa cells,leukemia cells,hepatoma cells and gastric cancer cells,and analyzed the molecular mechanism behind resveratrol-induced cell apoptosis in tumor.In addition,resveratrol was investigated by blocking the cell cycle,regulating the expressions of related genes and proteins and mitochondria-induced apoptosis pathways as a potential application of cancer drugs to clinical researches.

Objective To evaluate efficiency of brain metastases tumor using X-knife under farctionational stereotactie radiotherapy (FSRT) combine with whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT). Methods Retrospective comparing 51 patients treated by FSRT plus WBRT (FSRT + WBRT group) with 35 patients treated by WBRT alone (WBRT group) on the effecting rate and survival rate. Results The completeness response rate was 49 % and 26 % (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. The effecting rate was 80 % and 71 % (P 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. The middle survival time was (11.0 ± 1.5) months and (6.5 ± 0.5) months (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respeetivley. The 0.5-, 1.0- and 1.5-years survival rate was 63 % and 41 % (P 0.05), 51 % and 23 % (P 0.05) and 24 % and 9 % (P < 0.05) in FSRT + WBRT and WBRT groups, respectively. Conclusions The method with FSRT plus WBRT in the treatment of brain metastases tumor is safe and relieved focal symptom of patients quickly with lesser injury on normal tissue and the survival time be prolonged, it has better therapeutic effects than WBRT alone for treating brain metastases tumor.

Objective To develop an HPLC method for determination of triptoquinone H in Tripterygium wilfordii and its Tablet preparations. Methods An external method with Agilent Zorbax SC-C_(8)(250 mm?4.6 mm, 5 ?m) column as fixed phase and methanol-water (75∶25) as mobile phase was adopted. The detective wavelength was 258 nm and the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. Results The linearity range of triptoquinone was 6.28 — 100.5 ?g/mL (r=0.999 7). The average recovery of T. wilfordii was 96.94%, RSD was 1.57% (n=9) and the average recovery of T. hypoglaucum Tablet was 100.02%, RSD was 1.74% (n=9). Conclusion The method is accurate and sensitive. It is adoptable for quantity analysis of triptoquinone H in T. wilfordii and its Tablet.
