Objective:To study the anti-tumor activity of ginkgo albumin (GA) and its mechanism. Method: Molecular weight of GAⅡa was detected by MS (mass spectrum). The antioxidative effect of GA was studied by deoxyribonucleic acid method and nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) photo-reduction, and the anti-tumor activity of GA on S180 sarcoma was studied both in vivo and in vitro. Results: Molecular weight of GAⅡa was 29 248u. GA had strong scavenging effect on superoxide radical and hydroxyl radical. The growth of S180 both in vitro and in vivo was inhibited significantly by GA. Conclusion: The anti-tumor activity of GA was probably related with its antioxidative effect.

Objective To investigate the effect of cold pressed Camelina Sativa oil (CPCO) on growth performance and lipid metabolism of hyperlipemia rats. Method The rats were divided into control group (Cont),high fat diet group (HFD),fish oil group (HFD+FO),low dose CPCO group (HFD+LCPCO) and high dose CPCO group (HFD+HCPCO). The latter 4 groups were fed high fat feed. Fo and CPCO were given by gavage. Total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and HDL-C subtype levels in serum were determined at the end of 6w. The distribution of HDL-C particles was studied by agarose gel electrophoresis. Results HFD resulted typical hyperlipemia. Body weight,TC and TG level were significantly decreased,and HDL-C particles tended to be miniaturized and the HDL3 level increased by feeding Camelina Sativa oil as compared with HFD group. TC content in HFD+FO and HFD+HCPCO group was decreased 46.06% and 30.60% respectively. TG content in these two groups was decreased 25.81% and 22.72% respectively as compared with HFD group. Conclusion Chinese Camelina Sativa oil which contained high level of ?-linolenic acid(ALA)could prevent and cure hyperlipidemia by regulating blood lipid metabolism and protecting hepatic function.

Objective To investigate the scavenging abilities of ginkgo albumin to reactive oxygen in vitro, as well as the protection and mechanism of ginkgo albumin on damaged DNA. Methods Lotus Seedpod Procyanidin (LSPC) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) were used as control sample, the effect of ginkgo albumin on removal of superoxide anion was determined by Pyrogallol-Luminol system. Scavenging ability of ginkgo albumin on hydroxide free radical was determined by CuSO4-Phen-Vc-H2O2, FeSO4-Luminol-H2O2, and FeSO4-Luminol systems. Luminol-H2O2 system was used to measure the scavenging effect on hydrogen peroxide. Preventive effect of ginkgo albumin on in vitro damaged DNA was determined by CuSO4-Phen-Vc-H2O2-DNA system. Results Ginkgo albumin possessed a good scavenging potency on reactive oxygen and protection on damaged DNA, but promoted oxidation in the FeSO4-Luminol-H2O2 and Luminol-H2O2 chemiluminescence systems. Conclusion Not every chemiluminescences system is suitable for investigating the antioxidant activity of ginkgo albumin.
