OBJECTIVE:To study the HPLC fingerprints of Rheum palmatum planted in Kangding area.METHODS:The samples were separated on a Shim-pack ODS(150 mm?4.6 mm,5 ?m)with column temperature kept at 30 ℃;the mobile phase consisted of 0.1% H3PO4 methanol-0.1% H3PO4 aqueous solution by linear gradient elution with a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1 and detection wavelength of 280 nm.RESULTS:The HPLC fingerprints of Rheum palmatum planted in Kangding area had been established in which 56 common peaks were noted.Similarity of ten batches crude medicines was calculated,and a common template was set up.CONCLUSION:The established method is simple and feasible and by which the general quality of Rheum palmatum planted in Kangding area can be reflected.

Recently many studies have focused on the roles that tumor microenvironment plays in the occurrence and development of tumors,and the therapeutic effects of adjuvant chemotherapy and neoadjuvant chemotherapy.Recent researches show that tumor microenvironment has an obvious impact on the therapeutic effects of neoadjuvant chemotherapy,which mainly includes cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF),stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and collagens.

Objective To establish a method of preparing metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablet and its content determination. Methods The formulation was optimized through the orthogonal design test by using release rate of the drug as an indicator.The different batches of metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablets were determined by HPLC. Results The tablets could release drug steadily and slowly as designed,which was similar to imported tablets. The linear range of metoprolol succinate was 10-70 μg?mL-1( r=0.999 8) . Conclusion The releasing rate of metoprolol succinate sustained-release tablet prepared in optimum condition can meet the requirement. This preparation technology is simple, the assay method is rapid, sensitive and reproducible.

AIM:To research the effect of safflower in renal intertistial fibrosis by GFR and renal biopsypathology with Sprague-Dnwley(SD) rat model.METHODS:All rats were distributed into 6 groups.Group A was normal control,group B received sham operation,group C was vehicle control,group D received vehicle,group E received safflower(10(g?kg~(-1)) body(wt?d~(-1))),and group F received enalapril((12.5)(mg?kg~(-1)) body(wt?d~(-1))).Rats underwent reversible left renal vein obstruction for 6 d,after which the obstruction was relieved.Renal function was determined by measuring GFR with inulin clearances.Both renal tubular epithelial cells(RTECs) and fibronection deposition for renal interstitial fibrosis were identified by immunohistochemistry.The positive and negative areas of per slice was determined by a motic medical 6.0 graphical analytical system.Atrophic tubules were determined by measuring the tubule diameter.10 fields per slice were analyzed at ?400 magnification.RESULTS:Return of glomerular filtration rate(GFR) was seen in group E and goup F,which was significantly better than group D(P

Objective To synthesize soybean isoflavones, and their 7-alkaline analogues and to evaluate their uterotrophic activities and anti-uterotrophic activities preliminarily. Methods The target molecules were synthesized by multi-step from resorcinol and p-substituted phenylacetic acid as the starting material. Their uterotrophic activities and anti-uterotrophic activities were evaluated by female mouse at the concentration of 1.1?10 -2 ?mol/ml and 1.85?10 -3 ?mol/ml. Results Twenty-two compounds were synthesized, among which 4 intermediates and 12 isoflavones are new compounds. Conclusion All the target molecules except for 6a show weak uterotrophic activities and high anti-uterotrophic activities.

[Objective]To investigate the regular pattern of references quoted in theses of Orthopedic Journal of China from year 2005 to 2006,and to study the characteristics and experiences of reference quoting in Chinese orthopedic academic sphere.[Method]Forty-eight issues of Orthopedic Journal of China from year 2005 to 2006 were downloaded from the website www.chinajournal.net.cn.There were 466 theses about clinical research.All references in these theses were collected as origin of data.Excel software was applied to analyze all references.[Result]References were found in all 466 papers with the reference rate of 100%.The average reference amount in each thesis was 7.15(3 334/466).A total of 3110 references were from journals(93.28%)and 214 references were from monographs(6.42%).The Price Index reached 52.13%.And the number of self-quoted references reached 614 with the rate of self-quoting of 18.42%(614/3 334).References from Chinese and foreign journals with the first 20 highest being-quoting rates were collected,and it reached 56.12% of all references.[Conclusion]The content of references in Orthopedic Journal of China ranges widely.The main quoting origin is from journals.The mainly-quoted language is English,and references from other languages are rarely quoted.Most references showed new and original ideas.
