OBJECTIVE:To study the in vitro antioxidant activity of chitosan(CTS)degradation derivatives and its preventive effects on drug-induced liver injury fibosis. METHODS:Acid hydrolysis method was used to prepare the CTS degradation deriva-tives CTS-3,CTS-6,CTS-8,CTS-10 for different hydrolysis time(3,6,8,10 h). The viscosity-average relative molecular mass and deacetylation degree of CTS and its degradation derivatives were determined,and its antioxidant activity was evaluated by de-tecting its in vitro scavenging ability on 1,1-diphenyl-2-trinitrophenylhydrazine (DPPH) and superoxide anion (O2-) radicals. Us-ing CTS-10 for in vivo liver injury fibosis prevention test,mice were randomly divided into normal control group(water),model group(water),CTS-10 high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose groups(100,50,25 mg/mL),8 in each group. Mice were intragastri-cally administrated 0.2 mL,then withdrawal after continuous 24 d. Then levofloxacin hydrochloride was intragastrically given for 7 d to establish drug-induced liver injury model(except for normal control group). Western blot method was used to detect the expres-sions of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1)and Decorin protein in liver tissue of mice. RE-SULTS:The viscosity-average relative molecular mass of CTS,CTS-3,CTS-6,CTS-8,CTS-10 were 21.70×104,6.70×104,6.30× 104,5.01×104,4.87×104;and deacetylation degree were 83.44%,74.62%,67.28%,64.83%,54.23%,respectively. All of them had certain scavenging ability on DPPH and O2-,in which,CTS-10 was the strongest(25.47% and 56.31%). Compared with nor-mal control group,expressions of TNF-α,TGF-β1 and Decorin protein in liver tissue in model group were enhanced (P<0.05). Compared with model group,expressions of TNF-α,TGF-β1 and Decorin protein in liver tissue in CTS-10 medium-dose and high-dose groups were weakened(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:The viscosity-average relative molecular mass and deacetylation de-gree of CTS-10 in CTS degradation derivatives are lower with stronger antioxidant activity,and show certain preventive effects on drug-induced liver injury fibosis in mice.

Objective To study the imaging characteristics of vesical leukoplakia under the cys-toscope imaging system. Methods The characteristics of vesical leukoplakia were observed under the cystoscope imaging system in 556 cases. After anti-infection treatment to these patients, the chan-ges of the characteristic under the cystoseope imaging system were re-observed and compared before and after treatment. SPSS 11.0 software package x2 teat for statistical analysis was used. Results Under the cystoscope imaging system, there were four different imaging manifestations in the 556 pa-tients. These were, from mild to severe, congestive type in 42 cases, spots type in 56 cases, thin macular type in 399 cases and thick macular type in 59 cases. One type could transform to another af-ter anti-infection treatment. When reexamination by the cystoscope, 131 cases got improved, 304 cases had no changes and 121 cases were aggravated. Statistical analysis showed the transformation among the 4 types had significant difference (x2 = 130.92, v=6, P<0.001). From congestive type to spots type, thin macular type and thick macular type, after anti-infection treatment, the ratio of improved cases decreased gradually, however the ratio of aggravated cases and cases without changes increased gradually. Conclusion Vesical leukoplakia could be classified into 4 types initially: congestive type,spots type, thin macular type, thick macular type. The different clinical treatments should be provid-ed.

Using MS as basic medium, supplemented with 1.0 mg · L(-1) IBA, the adventitious roots of Tripterygium wilfordii were induced, and the good adventitious root culture system was established by leaves or callus induced by leaves as explants. The adventitious roots were also induced with 2.0-4.0 mg · L(-1) NAA and the good adventitious root culture system established by using suspension cells from callus as materials to induce adventitious root. The content of triptolide of three adventitious roots culture system were exceeded in the natural root bark. The content of triptolide of AR3 adventitious roots was the highest about 5.3 times as that in the natural root bark. By using 5 L stirred fermentor during pilot enlarge cultivation, compared with 250 mL flask cultivation, the adventitious roots increment and secondary metabolites content per liter medium showed no significant difference. The accomplishment of this analysis laid a foundation by tissue culture production of the secondary metabolites of T. wilfordii.
