The paper reports the establishment of a method for simultaneous determination of peimisine and sipeimine contents in Fritillaria walujewii Regel and Fritillaria pallidiflora Schrenk. The analyses were performed on an ultra-performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detection (UPLC-ELSD), equipped with a binary solvent manager, a sampler manager and a column compartment, and connected to Waters Empower 2 software. An Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (100 mm x 2.1 mm, 1.7 microm) was used for all analysis. The investigated compounds were separated with gradient mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-0.02% triethylamine-water. The temperature of sample manager was set at 25 degrees C. Drift tube temperature was 40 degrees C, and spray parameter was 40% with injection volume of 1 microL. The investigated compounds including peimisine and sipeimine had good linearity (r > or = 0.9991) over the tested ranges. The average recovery was 94.5% and 98.1% with RSD < or = 2.36%. The UPLC-ELSD method is simple, sensitive and accurate with good repeatability, which is available for quality control of F. walujewii Regel and F. pallidiflora Schrenk.

To study the mechanism of therapeutie effect of compound "Huang Dai" tablet in acute promyelocytic leukemia, twenty one patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia were treated with compound "Huang Dai" tablet. Bone marrow cells of the patients were collected before treatment and after treatment, and membrane differentiating antigen (CD33 and CD11b), cell cycle and the apoptosis correlative protein(Fas and Apo 2.7 )were detected with flow cytometry. Results showed that the expression of CD33 was decreased and that of CD11b increased, G 2 /M phase of cell cycle was blocked, and the expressions of Fas and Apo 2.7 protein were increased significantly in all patents after treatment with compound "Huang Dai" tablet. These results suggested that the mechanism of therapeutic effect of compound "Huang Dai" tablet in acute promyelocytic leukemia was induction of both differentiation and apoptosis of leukemic cells, and cell apoptosis might be related to Fas and Apo2.7 protein.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of psoralen (PSO) plus long-wave ultraviolet-A (PUVA) on apoptosis and expression of Fas ligand (FasL) in HL-60 leukemia cells. METHODS: The HL-60 cells were taken as the study objects and their apoptosis rates, ultrastructure changes and the expression of FasL were detected in order to observe the effects of PSO and ultraviolet-A (UVA) of wave length 360 nm. The factorial design and analysis of variance were used to analyze the interaction among the factors. RESULTS: PSO, UVA and PUVA all induced the apoptosis and the effects of PUVA were stronger than those of the other two. After HL-60 cells had been treated with PUVA, they all showed obvious ultrastructure changes due to apoptosis observed under the electron microscope. PSO, UVA and PUVA all decreased the expressions of FasL gene and protein. The effects of PUVA were stronger than those of the other two. CONCLUSIONS: PUVA can induce the apoptosis of HL-60 cells and the effects are stronger than those of PSO or UVA alone. The expression of FasL gene in HL-60 cells is down-regulated during the apoptosis induced by PUVA.

Synthetic biology of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a new and developing subject based on the research of secondary metabolite biosynthesis for nature products. The early development of synthetic biology focused on the screening and modification of parts or devices, and establishment of standardized device libraries. Panax notoginseng (Burk.) F.H.Chen is one of the most famous medicinal plants in Panax species. Triterpene saponins have important pharmacological activities in P. notoginseng. Squalene epoxidase (SE) has been considered as a key rate-limiting enzyme in biosynthetic pathways of triterpene saponins and phytosterols. SE acts as one of necessary devices for biosynthesis of triterpene saponins and phytosterols in vitro via synthetic biology approach. Here we cloned two genes encoding squalene epoxidase (PnSE1 and PnSE2) and analyzed the predict amino acid sequences by bioinformatic analysis. Further, we detected the gene expression profiling in different organs and the expression level of SEs in leaves elicited by methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment in 4-year-old P notoginseng using real-time quantitative PCR (real-time PCR). The study will provide a foundation for discovery and modification of devices in previous research by TCM synthetic biology. PnSE1 and PnSE2 encoded predicted proteins of 537 and 545 amino acids, respectively. Two amino acid sequences predicted from PnSEs shared strong similarity (79%), but were highly divergent in N-terminal regions (the first 70 amino acids). The genes expression profiling detected by real-time PCR, PnSE1 mRNA abundantly accumulated in all organs, especially in flower. PnSE2 was only weakly expressed and preferentially in flower. MeJA treatment enhanced the accumulation of PnSEI mRNA expression level in leaves, while there is no obvious enhancement of PnSE2 in same condition. Results indicated that the gene expressions of PnSE1 and PnSE2 were differently transcribed in four organs, and two PnSEs differently responded to MeJA stimuli. It was strongly suggested that PnSEs play different roles in secondary metabolite biosynthesis in P. notoginseng. PnSE1 might be involved in triterpenoid biosynthesis and PnSE2 might be involved in phytosterol biosynthesis.
