This article was aimed to study the quality control of pineapple leaf in order to further develop the appli-cations of pineapple leave as medicinal resources. The tissue structure of pineapple leaf was observed by tissue biop-sy assay. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) was employed on the qualitative identification of ananasate in the leave. The p-coumaric acid and ananasate were detected with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assay in the content determination. The results showed that pineapple leaf can be divided into the upper and lower leaf epidermis with stoma under microscope observation. Ananasate of the leave can be indentified clearly by TLC. HPLC method can accurately detect the content of p-coumaric acid and ananasate of pineapple leave. There are different contents of p-coumaric acid and ananasate of pineapple leave in different origins. In Y unnan province, the contents of p-coumaric acid and ananasate of pineapple leave are the highest; while the contents of p-coumaric acid and ananasate in Guangxi province are the lowest. It was concluded that ananasate can be used in the quality identification. The p-coumaric acid and ananasate can be used in the quantitative determination in the better control of the quality of pineapple leaf.

This study was aimed to observe effect of pomegranate leaf tannin and ellagic acid on primary rat adipocyte differentiation and lipid metabolism-related factor expression. Primary rat preadipocyte was in vitro cultured to observe the effect of pomegranate leaf tannin and ellagic acid on lipid fat cells as well as mRNA expression of its related factor. The results showed that pomegranate leaf tannin and ellagic acid had obvious inhibition effect on fat formation in fat cells. It had certain inhibition effect on activities of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and glucose-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH). It promoted fat decomposition and reduced intracellular lipid content. It upregulated PPARγ and fatty acid-binding protein (aP2). It downregulated obese (ob) gene level. It was concluded that pomegranate leaf tannin can inhibit fat generation of fat cells and promote fat metabolism. Ellagic acid was its main active ingredient, which had the same effect as pomegranate leaf tannin.

This study was aimed to observe the effect ofpomegranate leaf tennis and Ananas coumosus leaf phenols on the growth of lactating mice through breast milk. Intragastric administration of different doses of drug was given to maternal mice. The general condition of newborn mice, body weight, tail length and organ coefficient of liver-related factors regulating the expression of lipid metabolism were observed. The results showed that both pomegranate leaf tennis and A. coumosus leaf phenols can obviously affect the growth and development of newborn mice through breast milk. And the effect of pomegranate leaf tennis was stronger than A. coumosus leaf phenols. Meanwhile, it obviously downregulated the expression of liver-related lipid metabolism enzymes in newborn mice. It was concluded that pomegranate leaf tennis and A. coumosus leaf phenols can affect the growth and development of newborn mice through breast milk. Its effect was related to the influence of lipid metabolism enzyme in the liver. Attention should be paid on taking this medication during lactation. Its clinical significance still required in-depth study.

This article was aimed to study the general reproductive toxicity in mice in order to give a better evalua-tion of the medicinal plant of pineapple leaves (A nanas comasus L). Adult male and female mice were orally admin-istered with pineapple leaves. And then, each of the male and female mice was put together in one cage for mating. The mating success females were fed continuously. The experimental observation was conducted in pregnancy, fetal development, as well as the offspring of mice. The results showed that in addition to a large dose of pineapple leaves (4 g·kg-1) of the parental male rats having a lower body weight, pineapple leaves did not significantly affect on other parameters. There were no significant effects on pregnant mice and their offspring of mice. It was concluded that the pineapple leaves did not influence the general reproductive function of mice apparently.

OBJECTIVETo study the allergen in key processes during the production of Fufang Kushen injection by IgG promoter-HepG2 cells in vitro.

METHODBy transfecting a IgG promoter-regulating the expression of green fluorescent protein(GFP) plasmid into HepG2 cells, this transferred cells were incubated with common allergens (like puerarin, ovalbumin, LPS or Sal typhoid vi polysaccharide vaccine), excipients using in Fufang Kushen injection (NaOH, acetic acid, Tween-80 and ethanol) and samples from the key production processes of the injection for 30 minutes . Fluorescent photographs were analyzed the fluorescence intensity of the cells by using an image analysis software.

RESULTAll of common allergens significantly increased the IgG expression. Two of the excipicents, acetic acids and Tween-80 were shown to increased the IgG expression, while others had no effect on IgG expression. In the 8 samples from the key processes in the production of Fufang Kushen injection, two of them stimulated IgG expression.

CONCLUSIONIgG promoter-HepG2 cells are highly sensitive and specific to allergens, and thus can be applied to rapid screening of allergens in components and injections in transcriptional level. It is possible to use the IgG-promoter HepG2 cells in a real-time monitoring of allergens in the production processes of Chinese medicine injections.

Periodontitis is caused by overactive osteoclast activity that results in the loss of periodontal supporting tissue and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are essential for periodontal regeneration. However, the hypoxic periodontal microenvironment during periodontitis induces the apoptosis of MSCs. Apoptotic bodies (ABs) are the major product of apoptotic cells and have been attracting increased attention as potential mediators for periodontitis treatment, thus we investigated the effects of ABs derived from MSCs on periodontitis. MSCs were derived from bone marrows of mice and were cultured under hypoxic conditions for 72 h, after which ABs were isolated from the culture supernatant using a multi-filtration system. The results demonstrate that ABs derived from MSCs inhibited osteoclast differentiation and alveolar bone resorption. miRNA array analysis showed that miR-223-3p is highly enriched in those ABs and is critical for their therapeutic effects. Targetscan and luciferase activity results confirmed that Itgb1 is targeted by miR-223-3p, which interferes with the function of osteoclasts. Additionally, DC-STAMP is a key regulator that mediates membrane infusion. ABs and pre-osteoclasts expressed high levels of DC-STAMP on their membranes, which mediates the engulfment of ABs by pre-osteoclasts. ABs with knock-down of DC-STAMP failed to be engulfed by pre-osteoclasts. Collectively, MSC-derived ABs are targeted to be engulfed by pre-osteoclasts via DC-STAMP, which rescued alveolar bone loss by transferring miR-223-3p to osteoclasts, which in turn led to the attenuation of their differentiation and bone resorption. These results suggest that MSC-derived ABs are promising therapeutic agents for the treatment of periodontitis.
