The PDB culture medium was selected to ferment the endophyte strain, and the secondary metabolites of endophytic fungi Penicillium polonicum were studied. Combined application of Sephadex LH-20, ODS and HPLC chromatographies over the ethyl acetate extract of the fermented culture led to the isolation of 6 compounds. By spectral methods, the structures were elucidated as [3, 5-dihydroxy-2-(7-hydroxy-octanoyl)]-ethylphenylacetate (1), (3, 5-dihydroxy-2- octanoyl)-ethyl phenylacetate (2), (5, 7-di- hydroxy-9-heptyl)-isobenzo pyran-3-one (3), 3-(hydroxymethyl) 4-(1E)-1- propen-1-yl-(1R, 2S, 5R, 6S)-7-oxabicyclo [4.1.0] hept-3-ene-2, 5-diol (4), (E)-2-methoxy-3-(prop-1-enyl) phenol (5) and p-hydroxylphenylethanol (6).

Objective To value the effect and safety of butyl phthalide sequential treatment in cerebral infarction of branch sclerosis of arterial congee appearance. Methods Sixty patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into treated group( n = 31)and control group( n = 29). According to the condition of illness,all patients were given aspirin,atorvastatin calcium,and the injection of ozagrel sodium intravenous;controlled the blood pressure,blood sugar,blood lipid,and treated complications posstively;take the early rehabilitation of nerve treatment afte the illness was in stable condition. Butyl phthalide was used in the patients of treated group(100 ml,twice per day,intravenous drip,during 14 days period therapy,and then 0. 2 g oral,third per day),besides the routine therapy. The degree of neural function defect score( NIHSS)and activities of daily living score(BI)between two groups were observed before and after treatment. Corresponding adverse consequences were recorded. Results Compared with pretreatment,the NIHSS of postreatment at the 14th day in treat and control groups were decreased(treated group:(4. 36 ± 3. 11)vs.(11. 42 ± 3. 20);control group:(6. 12 ± 2. 67)vs.(11. 64 ± 3. 43),P < 0. 05,and the treated group was significantly lower than control group(F inner groups = 2. 125,P < 0. 01;F between groups = 18. 63,P < 0. 01;F cross groups = 25. 34,P< 0. 01;P < 0. 05). The BI of postreatment in two group were increased(treated group:(86. 72 ± 8. 44)vs. (26. 54 ± 13. 36);control group:(75. 96 ± 9. 86)vs.(26. 38 ± 13. 02)),and the treated group was significantly lower than control group(F inner groups = 29. 27,P < 0. 01;F between groups = 32. 48,P < 0. 01;F cross groups= 42. 41,P < 0. 01;P < 0. 05). There was no the adverse reactions. Conclusion Butyl phthalide sequential treatment can improve the NIHSS and BI of cerebral infarction of branch sclerosis of arterial congee appearance and have a better therapy effect.

Objective To investigate the inhibitory effects of periplocin from cortex periplocae (CPP) on human lung cancer cell line QG56 and to discuss its mechanism. Methods QG56 cells were cultured in vitro. The final concentrations of CPP in control group were 1.25, 2.50, 5.00, 10.00 and 20.00μg/L. QG56 cells were treated with ascending concentration of CPP for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h. The cell proliferation was measured using MTT method. The morphological changes of QG56 cells were observed under inverted microscope. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to detect the effects of CPP on cell cycle and cell apoptosis. The expression of apoptosis associated gene bax mRNA in QG56 cells was detected by RT-PCR. The expres-sion of bax protein before and after treatment of CPP was examined by SP immunocytochemistry. Results The inhibitory ef-fect of CPP on the proliferation of QG56 cells was increased with the increasing concentrations of CPP and the prolonged du-ration of treatment. The morphological changes were displayed in QG56 exposed to CPP. The results of FCM showed that CPP caused cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase. The apoptotic rate of QG56 cells was significantly increased after CPP treatment for 48 h (P<0.05). The expression of bax mRNA was increased in QG56 exposed to CPP. The result of immunocytochemis-try indicated that CPP up-regulated the expression of bax protein. Conclusion CPP showed significant inhibitory effect on human lung cancer cell lines QG56 through inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of periplocin from Cortex Periplocae (CPP) on apoptosis of human lung cancer A549 cells and expression of survivin, and demonstrate its anti-tumor effect and the possible mechanism. Methods Inhibitory effect of CPP at different concentrations (1. 25, 2. 50, 5. 00, 10. 00, 20. 00 ng·mL-1 ) and for different time length (24, 48, 72 h) on A549 cell proliferation was tested by MTT method. Apoptosis rate of A549 cells treated with CPP at different concentrations (2. 50, 5. 00, 10. 00 ng·mL-1 ) were measured using flow cytometry (FCM) for 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 h, respectively. The morphological and ultrastructural changes of the apoptosis cells were observed by acridine orange/ ethidium bromide (AO/ EB) staining and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The effects of CPP on mRNA and protein expression of apoptosis associated gene survivin were assessed by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Results CPP could significantly inhibit the growth of A549, and the inhibition rate reached (93. 46±2. 35)% . The results of FCM showed that the apoptosis rate of A549 cells treated with CPP was increased significantly as compared to the control group ( P<0. 05). Meanwhile, typical apoptotic peaks were detected. The characteristic morphological changes of apoptosis were observed in A549 exposed to CPP, including cell shrinkage, the nuclei became yellow-red by AO/ EB staining, and typical ultrastructural changes, including nuclear chromatin condensation along the nuclear membrane, vacuolar degeneration of cytoplasm observed by TEM. The result of RT-PCR indicated that survivin mRNA expression decreased obviously in A549 cells exposed to CPP. The protein expression of survivin in A549 cells treated with 10. 0 ng·mL-1 CPP(0. 251±0. 012)was weaker than that in control group(0. 928±0. 016). Conclusion CPP can induce apoptosis in human lung cancer cell lines A549, and the probable mechanism is related to the down-regulation of survivin mRNA and protein.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effects of metformin hydrochloride and rosiglitazone maleate tablets on insulin resistance and androgen concentration in obese and nonobese women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).Methods Seventy women with PCOS were enrolled into this study according to the diagnostic criteria of Rotterdam conference (2003).The women with PCOS were divided into the over weight/obese group (body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2,n =34) and the nonobese group (body mass index＜25 kg/m2,n =36).All women with PCOS took metformin hydrochloride and rosiglitazone maleate tablets twice daily for 3 months.The following indexes were measured before and after the treatment:height,weight,waist circumference,hip circumference,fasting plasma glucose,fasting plasma insulin,luteinizing hormone (LH),follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),total testosterone,free testosterone,follicular number and ovarian area,body mass index,waist to hip ratio,and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were calculated.Results (1) Compared with the nonobese group,dramatic increases in HOMA-IR and follicle number were observed in over weight/obese group(P＜0.05),while LH,LH/FSH,total testosterone,free testosterone showed no significant difference between two groups.(2) After the treatment with metformin hydrochloride and rosiglitazone maleate tablets,weight,body mass index,fasting plasma glucose,fasting plasma insulin,HOMA-IR significantly decreased in two groups (P ＜ 0.05).There were also significant declines of LH,LH/FSH,free testosterone,ovarian area,follicular number,especially in the over weight/ obese women with PCOS (P＜0.05),while total testosterone and FSH did not change significantly.(3) The incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions in nonobese and over weight/obese group was 9.3％ and 6.3％ respectively,and no liver toxicity,edema,hypoglycemia and other adverse reactions was observed during treatment.Conclusion Compared with the nonobese group,there were severer insulin resistance and more marked polycystic change of ovary in over weight/obese women with PCOS,while total testosterone and free testosterone showed no significant difference between two gruops.Metformin hydrochloride and rosiglitazone maleate tablets can ameliorate insulin resistance and polycystic ovary,and also reduce body mass index and free testosterone in women with PCOS particularly in the over weight/obese individuals.
