Objective To study the protective effect on CCl4-injured L-02 hepatocytes of polysaccharides from Hyriopsis cumingii(HCP) and try to explain the mechanism.Methods The L-02 hepatocytes were incubated and then injured by CCl4.The levels of AST,ALT,MDA and SOD in cultural supernatant were detected by general methods.Cell viability was assayed by MTT method.Results The polysaccharides(25,250 and 1000?g?L-1)could reduce the levels of AST,ALT,MDA in cultural supernatant which increased by CCl4.It also could boost the hepatocytes viability and elevate the level of SOD which reduced by CCl4.Conclusion The results suggest that polysaccharides from Hyriopsis cumingii have direct protective activity on hepatocytes injured in vitro.It might be associated with the anti-oxidative activity of polysaccharides from Hyriopsis cumingii.

Objective A HPLC method was established to measure the contents of major nucleosides in Hyriopsis cumingii.Method Separation was performed on a Lichrosper-C_(18) column, pure water was used as mobile phase,the flow rate was 1.0mL min~(-1),the column temperature at 30℃and the detective walvelength at 254 nm.Results The contents of uracil,hypoxanthine, xanthine,uridine and thymine were 153.2～173.3?g?g~(-1),106.6～360.8?g?g~(-1),117.6～172.8?g?g~(-1),70.3～153.1?g?g~(-1) and 343.9～511.4?g?g~(-1),respectively. Conclusion This method showed good repeatability and flexibility.It could be used as a conventional method for determination of major nucleosides in H.cumingii.
