Objective To study the qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis of flavonoids and other ingredients in leaves of Lonicera hypoglauca miq,and to optimize the reflux extraction condition for total flavonoids from leaves of lonicera hypoglauca miq. Methods Preliminary test was used for qualitative analysis. UV-spectrophotometry was used to determinate content of total flavonoids. By orthogonal design,the extraction rate of flavonoids was determined in different factors of ethanol reflux extracting. Results Leaves of lonicera hypoglauca miq contained alkaloids and flavonoids.The optimum conditions of ethanol reflux extracting total flavonoids are 12 times 50% ethanol,and refluence for 1.0h at water bath for two times.According to validate experiment,the average total flavonoids content was 16.6% in leaves of lonicera hypoglauca miq,with RSD=1.52%(n=3). Conclusion Flavonoids are in higher level in leaves of Lonicera hypoglauca miq. There are some chemical similarity in leaves of lonicera hypoglauca miq and leaves of flos lonicerae.

Objective To investigate the change of angiopoietin‐1(Ang‐1)in the peripheral blood of patients with acute re‐spiratory distress syndrome and its relationship with prognosis.Methods A total of 85 hospitalized patients with ARDS were recruited and divided into mild group(n=25) ,moderate group(n=36)and severe group(n=24)according to the oxidation states of patients.Another 40 hospitalized patients without ARDS were included as the control group.The basic clinical data of all pa‐tients were obtained.The expressions of Ang‐1 and Tie2 in the peripheral blood were detected by RT‐PCR.The correlation be‐tween the different variables was analyzed by using Pearson correlation analysis.All patients were divided into survival group(n=47)and death group(n=38)according to the deaths of patients after 28 days.The relevant factors for prognostic of patients with ARDS were analyzed by using multivariate Logistic regression analysis.The effectiveness of Ang‐1 in predicting ARDS was analyzed by using ROC curves.Results In ARDS patients relative to the control patients ,PaO2/FiO2 was decreased ,A‐PACHEⅡ score ,LIS score ,SOFA score ,C‐reactive protein(CRP) ,IL‐6 ,and mortality rates were increased ,and the relative ex‐pressions of Ang‐1 mRNA and Tie2 mRNA in the peripheral blood were decreased ,with the differences being statistically sig‐nificant(P<0.05).The relative expressions of Ang‐1 mRNA and Tie2 mRNA in the peripheral blood in severe group were much lower than in the mild group and moderate group ,those in the moderate group were lower than in the mild group ,and there were significant differences(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the expressions of Ang‐1 and Tie2 in the peripheral blood of patients with ARDS were positively correlated with PaO2/FiO2 (P<0.05) ,but were negatively correlated with APACHE Ⅱ score ,LIS score ,SOFA score ,CRP and IL‐6 levels(P< 0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that PaO2/FiO2 and APACHEⅡ score were independent risk factors for the mortality in patients with ARDS(P<0.05) ,while the relative expressions of Ang‐1 mRNA and Tie2 mRNA were protective factors for the mortality in patients with ARDS(P>0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that when the relative expression of Ang‐1 mRNA was used for the diagnosis of ARDS ,the area under the curve was 0.874(95% CI:0.809-0.938) ,the sensitivity was 72.5% ,and the specificity was 85.9% . Conclusion Down‐expression of Ang‐1 in the peripheral blood of patients with ARDS is closely related with the severity of the patient’s condition.It may accelerate the endothelial cell damage and increase the vascular permeability by reducing the binding to Tie2.It may be used as a prognostic indicator for patients with ARDS.

Rab GTPases serve as master regulators of vesicular membrane transport on both the exo-and endocytic pathways. Though there are many reports on Rab proteins, the function of these small proteins still remain in speculation. And no report has ever clarified the character of human Rab26. Here it was reported that a novel Rab protein Rab26 is membranous organelle related and in volved inendocytosis of HeLa cells. By using RT-PCR method a novel Rab26 cDNA full-length cDNA of Rab26 that is 1656 bp was identified.The cDNA sequence that at 1197 is 'A' other than 'G', while 'C' at 956 substitutes for 'T', and has 'GCC' insertion at 48 to 50 compared with published sequences. The complete open reading frame (ORF) is 771 bp in length encoding 256-residue protein with a calculated molecular mass of 27.9 ku (GenBank accession No.AY646153), rather than a shorter one with 190-amino acid residue as reported previously. GFP labeled full-length Rab26 expression showed that Rab26 was mainly sublocated in membranous organelles and could enhance endocytosis which means could took PE labeled protein as an endocytic tracer. RT-PCR analysis showed Rab26 was detected to express in several kinds of adenocarcinoma cell lines such as Acc2, AccM, SPC-A1 and HeLa cell lines, which indicated that Rab26 expression might be associated with some carcinomas.
