Objective To develop a method for the determination of aflatoxins B1,B2,G1 and G2 in Chinese herbal medicine.Methods The herbal medicine samples were cleaned up on immunoaffinity columns and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) with fluorescence detection.For chromatographic separation,a Zorbax SB C18(4.6 mm?150 mm,5 ?m) column was employed.The separation was carried out as the mobile phase of methanol-0.01 mol/L KH2PO(44+6)with a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min at column temperature of 35 ℃.The reaction tube temperature of postcolumn derivatization system was 70 ℃.The detection was observed by fluorescence with excitation at 360 nm and emission wavelength at 425 nm.Results The calibration curve showed good linearity in the range of 12.00-300.00 ?g/L for aflatoxin B1,and 24.00-600.00 ?g/L for aflatoxin B2,G1 and G2.The lowest limits of detection for aflatoxins in Chinese herbal medicine were 0.025 ?g/L for AFB1,0.085 ?g/L for AFB2,0.060 ?g/L for AFG1,and 0.055 ?g/L for AFG2,and the correlation coefficients were ≥0.996.Recoveries were 81.7%-101.2% for aflatoxin B1,B2,G1 and G2 spiked to Fructus amomi,Radix angelicae sinensis,Rhizoma polygonati,Rhizoma atractylodis macrocephalae and Rhizoma dioscoreae at the level of 5 ?g/L,and the relative standard deviations were 0.7%-4.9% in all instances.Conclusion The method has good stability,high sensitivity and high selectivity,and it is applicable to the determination of aflatoxins in Chinese herbal medicine.

Objective The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects and mechanism of ACEI(Fosinopril),AT1 receptor antagonism (Irbesartan),and combination of these two drugs on ventricular remodeling in rats with myocardial infarction.Methods Rats were randomly divided into four groups at twenty-four hours after MI,and treated for 6 weeks.Mean blood pressure and left ventricular end diastolic pressure(LVEDP) were evaluated,as well as ventricular weight(VW)/body weight(BW) ratio.The total,type I and type Ⅲcollagen and nonmyocyte cellular proliferation were quantified by histomorphometry.The expression of transforming growth factor-beta 1(TGF-? 1)mRNA within the noninfarction zone was determined by in situ hybridization.Results Irbesartan and combination therapy decreased total collagen more significantly compared with fosinopril.Combination therapy decreased typeⅠcollagen more significantly than fosinopril.Nonmyocyte cellar proliferation in MI-combination group was more significantly suppressed than in MI-fosinopril group.Treatment with irbesartan or combination therapy normalized TGF-? 1 mRNA level within the noninfarction zone.Conclusion Fosinopril or irbesartan alone ,and combination of these two drugs can limit myocardial hypertrophy,attenuate the development of myocardial interstitial fibrosis,and prevent nonmyocyte cellar proliferation in the noninfarcted left ventricle.The use of irbesartan,especially combined with fosinopril was more effective than fosinopril alone in the suppression of histopathologic changes resulting in ventricular remodeling after MI.Irbesartan and combination therapy was more effective than fosinopril alone in suppressing TGF-? 1 mRNA expression.

[Objective]To explore the results of the treatment of the ischemic necrosis of femoral head using titanium alloy cage in animal models.[Method]The ischemic necrosis of femur head was made with the liquid nitrogen in 15 hybrid adult dogs.The titanium alloy cage of threaded central empty cylinder with multi-hole periphery was driven into the full depth of the center decompression canal to the subchondral bone.The dogs were divided into 3 groups,5 dogs in each groups were sacrificed respectively at 3,6,12 weeks after operation.Radiograph and histologic examination were used to evaluate the results.[Result]No collapse of femoral head was observed postoperation.The position of the cages was located wall in X-ray films.Under microscope,the cancellous bone of necrotic femoral head rebuilted up gradually.The cancellous bone grew into cage.After 12-week creeping substitution,the cancellous bone filled up the hollow and the peripheral holes of the cages.[Conclusion]The titanium alloy cage can provide structural support to the subchondral bone and prevent collapse.The cancellous bone grows into the cages through the peripheral holes.The necrotic femoral heads are restoration.The titanium alloy cage could be recommended for the treatment of the ischemic necrosis of femoral head.

Objective:Our aim was to To clarify the roles of p16 and p15 proteins in the genesis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL).Methods:Twenty-three samples of ALL were studied by the method of indirect immunofluorescence.Flow cytometer was used to estimate the cellular fluorescent intensity to determine the levels of p16 and p15 proteins.Results:Negative expression for p16 protein was found in 10 of 23 samples,and 8 of 23 were p15 negative expression.Both kinds of proteins were abscent in 6 samples.2 of 3 cases of T-ALL were negative expression of p16,p15 protein.In non T-ALL,6 of 13 were negative expression for p16 protein,5 of 13 were p15 protein deficient.The expression rates of p16,p15 protein in high leukocyte group were lower than those of non-high leukocyte group(P<0.05).The expression rates of p16,p15 proteins in HR-ALL were lower than those of SR-ALL(P<0.05).Conclusion:The p16 and p15 proteins take part in the genesis of ALL.Negative expression of p16,p15 proteins might imply the poor clinical outcome.

Objective To study the role of adiponectin (ADP)post-conditioning in alleviating myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury (MIRI) in 3-week old rats.Methods SD rats (3-week old) were randomly divided into 4 groups by random digits table (n =6):sham group was processed identically except that the left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD) was not ligated;MIRI group was subjected to occlusion of the LAD followed by reperfusion,occlusion for 30 min and reperfusion for 120 min;ADP group was subjected to injection of ADP into femoral vein before reperfusion;LY294002 group (ADP post-conditioning and LY294002) was subjected to injection of ADP and LY294002 into femoral vein before reperfusion.The titer of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),cardiac troponin I(cTnl) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in plasma were observed.The levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD)and MDA in myocardial tissue were observed.Results The levels of LDH,cTnI and MDA in plasma of MIRI group was (732.11 ± 111.29) IU/L,(38.05 ± 6.17) g/L and (4.49 ± 0.17) nmol/L,respectively,compared with sham group,the levels of LDH,cTnI and MDA in plasma of MIRI group increased obviously(all P ＜ 0.05);the levels of LDH,cTnI and MDA in plasma of ADP group were (581.72 ± 68.41) IU/L,(20.70 ± 5.43) g/L and (3.10 ± 0.20) nmol/L,respectively;compared with MIRI group,the levels of LDH,cTnⅠ and MDA in plasma of ADP group declined significantly (all P ＜0.05);the levels of LDH,cTnI and MDA in plasma of LY294002 group were (701.10 ±99.59) IU/L,(33.13 ± 4.32) g/L and (4.19 ± 0.46) nmol/L,compared with ADP group,the levels of LDH,cTnI and MDA in plasma of group LY294002 increased remarkably (t =2.477,1.804,2.961,all P ＜ 0.05).Compared with sham group,the SOD level decreased and the MDA level increased in myocardial tissue of MIRI group(all P ＜ 0.05);compared with MIRI group,the SOD level increased and the MDA level decreased in myocardial tissue of ADP group (all P ＜ 0.05);compared with ADP group,the SOD level decreased and the MDA level increased in myocardial tissue of LY294002 group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions ADP postconditioning is perhaps a protective factor for alleviating myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in 3-week-old rats,the protective effect is perherps related to alleviating the damage of the lipid peroxidation by signaling pathway of adiponectin/phosphoinositide-3 kinase/protein kinase B.
