OBJECTIVETo study the effect of different composition structures of total paeony glycoside (TPG) component and total phenolic acid of Ligusticum chuanxiong ( TLPA) on sodium dithionite (Na2S2O4) -induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) hypoxic injury. The baseline geometric proportion was used to design different components structure. And then the best structure of components by cell injury model were optimized.
METHODA HUVEC hypoxic injury model was established by being induced of Na2S2O4. Cell viability was measured by MTI colorimetric method, intracellular superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA), lactate dehydrogenase( LDH) levels, nitric oxide (NO) contents were measured by kits. At last, Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of two proteins, Bcl-2 and Bax.
RESULTCompared with the model group, TPG component, TLPA component at different composition structures can significantly increase SOD activity and decrease MDA, LDH, NO levels (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). Paeoniae Radix Rubra and Chuanxiong Rhizoma components can downregulate the expression of Bax protein and upregulate the expression of Bcl-2 protein. The ratio of Bcl-2 and Bax was significantly increased (P < 0 01, P < 0 05), it means that cell apoptosis was inhibited. The results indicate that among all the component composition structures, TPG and TLPA component at the proportion of 8: 2 had the best protection on hypoxic injury of endothelial cells.
CONCLUSIONTPG component and TLPA component can resist HUVEC hypoxia injury, the protective effect was the most evident under the structure of 8: 2, which may be due to the inhibition of intracellular lipid peroxidation and cell apoptosis.

Orally disintegrating tablets (ODT), a kind of new solid tablet that rapidly disintegrates to work in the mouth, has became the hot form of new drug research in recent years with many advantages, such as the convenient taking, a widely applicable people, fast acting, high bioavailability, good compliance, and so on. ODT has been widely used in chemical medicines, while the application of it in traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) is still in the stage of development The development of TCMs ODT provides a new direction for the research of Chinese medicine new dosage, accelerates the pace of connecting to the world and modernization of Chinese medicine. This dosage has a broad market prospect, and its quality control and assessment standards, taste, the disintegration time in vitro and evaluation method are the key factors that affect the industrialization, standardization of Chinese medicine ODT. Therefore, this paper reviewed the characteristics, preparation, taste masking technology and quality evaluation with new technology of ODT. Meantime, numerous application examples of ODT used in traditional Chinese medicine were described. We expect to provide the reference and utilization for the development of traditional Chinese medicine orally disinteeratine tablets.

Chinese Traditional and Herbal Drugs 2016;47(9):1541-1547
Objective: To evaluate the effect of Ophiopogon japonicus alcohol extract (OJAE) on tumor growth of lung cancer and the regulation on autophagy of lung cancer cells. Methods: Lewis tumor-bearing mice model was established to observe the effect of OJAE on tumor growth. The volume of tumor was observed and calculated by Visual Sonics Vevo 2100 Animal Dedicated High-frequency Color Ultrasound. To detect Ki67 and P53 protein expression in lung cancer tissue by Western blotting assay method and immunohistochemical assay method. The induction of OJAE on autophagy of A549 cells was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, combining with Western blotting assay and RT-PCR methods. Results: OJAE had certain inhibitory effect on Lewis lung cancer tumor growth. It also could make the expression of Ki67 significantly reduced and the expression of P53 significantly enhanced. It could induce autophagy. Conclusion: OJAE has obvious inhibitory effect against lung cancer, and has the ability to induce autophagy. This study reveals the anti-lung cancer effect of OJAE may be related to its induction on autophagy, thus provides the basis for the research on anti-lung cancer effect of OJAE.

Abstract:
Nitrobenzene compounds (NBCs) are widely used in the world. It has 40 isomers such as nitrobenzene, dinitrobenzene
and nitrotoluene, that are highly toxic and difficult to degrade and can cause harm to human health in different degrees. At pres⁃
ent, there is no unified standard method and occupational exposure limit for the detection of NBCs in the air. In terms of sampling
medium, solid adsorption tube is mostly used for trapping vapor state NBCs, and filter membrane and solid adsorption tube are
mostly used in series for sampling coexist NBCs in vapor state and aerosol state. In the detection methods, gas chromatography
and liquid chromatography are common, and ultraviolet spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy, ion migration spectrometry and
some other rapid response methods and technologies are also used in the detection of NBCs. In the detection of NBCs by gas chro⁃
matography, capillary column separation is commonly used, and the main detectors are flame ionization detector, electron capture
detector and mass spectrometry detector. It is of practical significance to establish a method with high sensitivity, strong practica⁃
bility, convenient operation, and can simultaneously collect and detect a variety of NBCs in different states.
