This study explored the correlation between color and chemical components of Chrysanthemi Indici Flos(CIF), aiming at providing a reference for its procurement, evaluation, and breeding. Colorimeter and ultra-performance liquid chromatograph(UPLC) were used to determine the color(lightness-shade chromaticity value L~*, red-green chromaticity value a~*, yellow-blue chromati-city value b~*) and chemical components(cynaroside, linarin, luteolin, apigenin, and chlorogenic acid) of 84 CIF germplasms, respectively. Diversity analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and cluster analysis were performed. The results showed that the color and chemical components of CIF were diversified. Chlorogenic acid was in significantly positive correlation with L~* and b~* and significantly negative correlation with a~*. Cynaroside and grey relational grade γ_i of chemical components were in significantly po-sitive correlation with b~* and L~*, respectively, whereas linarin, luteolin, and apigenin had no significant correlation with L~*, a~*, or b~*. The 84 CIF germplasms were clustered into 4 clades. In addition, germplasms in clade Ⅲ had higher γ_i and total color value(E~*_(ab)) than those in other clades, with the best quality and color, and a germplasm with the highest quality, bright yellow color, and highest content of linarin was screened out in this clade. Thus, CIF with bright yellow color had high content of cymaroside and chlorogenic acid and thereby high quality. In summary, the color can be used to quickly predict the quality of CIF. Our results provided data for the evaluation of CIF quality by color and a reference for its procurement and breeding.

Membrane-disruptive peptides/peptidomimetics (MDPs) are antimicrobials or anticarcinogens that present a general killing mechanism through the physical disruption of cell membranes, in contrast to conventional chemotherapeutic drugs, which act on precise targets such as DNA or specific enzymes. Owing to their rapid action, broad-spectrum activity, and mechanisms of action that potentially hinder the development of resistance, MDPs have been increasingly considered as future therapeutics in the drug-resistant era. Recently, growing experimental evidence has demonstrated that MDPs can also be utilized as adjuvants to enhance the therapeutic effects of other agents. In this review, we evaluate the literature around the broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties and anticancer activity of MDPs, and summarize the current development and mechanisms of MDPs alone or in combination with other agents. Notably, this review highlights recent advances in the design of various MDP-based drug delivery systems that can improve the therapeutic effect of MDPs, minimize side effects, and promote the co-delivery of multiple chemotherapeutics, for more efficient antimicrobial and anticancer therapy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Kouyanqing granule combined with ornidazole on the expression of high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-23 (IL-23) in patients with chronic periodontitis.Methods:From October 2018 to October 2019, 162 patients with chronic periodontitis admitted to the First People's Hospital of Xiaoshan District were divided into observation group (81 cases) and control group (81 cases) according to the random digital table method.The control group was treated with ornidazole, and the observation group was treated with Kouyanqing granules on the basis of the control group.The course of treatment in both two groups was 4 weeks.The changes of plaque index (PLI), probing depth of periodontal pocket (PD), bleeding index (BI), HMGB1, TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-23 and adverse reactions were compared before and after treatment.Results:The total effective rate of the observation group (91.36%) was higher than that of the control group (77.78%) (χ 2=5.723, P<0.05). The PLI(0.93±0.16), PD[(3.15±0.37)mm] and BI(1.35±0.24) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(1.42±0.24), (4.28±0.45)mm and (2.18±0.28)] ( t=15.289, 17.457, 20.256, all P<0.05). The levels of HMGB1 [(0.78±0.13)μg/L], TNF-α[(3.10±0.32)μg/L], IL-17[(368.19±24.31)ng/L] and IL-23[(7.63±0.89)ng/L] in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(0.96±0.10)μg/L, (4.34±0.46)μg/L, (457.32±21.35)ng/L and (10.32±1.25)ng/L] ( t=9.877, 19.916, 24.793, 15.777, all P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group (6.17%) was lower than that in the control group (17.28%) (χ 2=4.830, P<0.05). Conclusion:Kouyanqing granule combined with ornidazole is effective in the treatment of chronic periodontitis.It can reduce the levels of HMGB1, TNF-α, IL-17 and IL-23, and has few adverse reactions.

Objective: To evaluate the long-term effect and safety of chrono-chemotherapy combined with intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Methods: 160 patients with locally advanced NPC were randomly divided into a chrono group and conventional group according to random number table. In the first stage, all patients underwent two cycles of induced chemotherapy, consisting of docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-Fu every 21 days. Notably, patients received chrono-moduated chemotherapy according to circadian rhythm in the chrono group, and conventional chemotherapy in the conventional group. Then, 21 days after the completion of first stage, three cycles of concurrent cisplatin chemotherapy every 21 days were given to all patients during IMRT. The median follow-up after the completion of radiotherapy was 31 months. Long-term side effects and the survival of patients were observed. Results: Patients in the chrono group had significantly lower rates of hearing loss (22.72%), dysphagia (0) and neck fibrosis (4.54%) compared with those in the conventional group (39.13%、8.69%, 15.94%, respectively, all P<0.05). Meanwhile, the 1- year overall survival rates (97.0% vs 92.8%), 3-year overall survival rates (80.3% vs 81.2%), 1-year progression free survival rates (95.5% vs 87.0%), 3-year progression free survival rates (71.2% vs 73.9%), 1-year locoregional relapse-free survival rates (97.0% vs 95.7%), 1-year locoregional relapse-free survival rates (92.4% vs 92.8%), 1-year distant metastasis-free survival rates (97.0% vs 98.6%) and 3-year distant metastasis-free survival rates (90.9% vs 91.3%) between the chrono group and the conventional group were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). Conclusions Compared with conventional chemotherapy, chrono-chemotherapy combined with IMRT didn′t affect long-term survival, but reducing the incidence of adverse events in patients with locally advanced NPC.

Objective: To compare the adverse events, immune status, and short-term efficacy between chronomodulated chemotherapy (CCR) and routine chemotherapy (RCR) combined with intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT)in the treatment of patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: A total of 159 patients with newly diagnosed locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma were randomized into the CCR group and the RCR group to evaluate the short-term efficacy and adverse events. Results: No significant difference was found in CR, PR, SD, and PD between the CCR group and the RCR group (P>0.05), and no significant difference was observed in the response rate (CR+ PR) between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of leukopenia(Z=-2.222, P<0.05), neutropenia(Z=-1.999, P<0.05), vomiting(Z=-2.298, P<0.05), and oral mucositis(Z=-3.571, P<0.05)of the CCR group was lower than those of the RCR group with statistical significance. The CD16+ 56+ lymphocyte cell count was higher in the CCR group than that in the RCR group(Z=-2.332, P<0.05). Conclusions As a novel invention, CCR combined with IMRT can reduce the incidence and severity of treatment-related adverse events and improve immune status without diminishing clinical efficacy, therefore deserving clinical application.
