China Pharmacy 2001;0(11):-
OBJECTIVE:To establish a determination method for trace elements of Plumbago zeylanica. METHODS:Induct- ively coupled plasma emission spectrum (ICP-AES) was used to determine seven trace elements of P. zeylanica, i.e. Cu, Zn,Fe,Ca,Mg,Mn and Sr simultaneously. Se was determined by atomic fluorescence (AFS) method. RESULTS: The RSD ranged from 0.78% to 3.01%(n=5),while the recovery was within 91.9%~105.8%. The result obtained was satisfactory. Se took a large proportion in P. zeylanica, followed by Cu,Zn,Fe,Ca,Mg,Mn,Sr.CONCLUSION: The method is brief, rapid and accurate for the determination of P. zeylanica. The study provide reference for future pharmacological study of P. zeylanica.

Objective To investigate the effect of acteoside on injury PC12 cells induced by glutamate. Methods PC12 cells were assigned into normal control group, model control group, positive drug group and acteoside(AS) treated group. Every group was treated by 1. 5 mmol·L-1 glutamate for 24 hours except for the control group, and the injury was antagonized by 10 μmol·L-1 Vit E and acteoside at different concentration(15. 625, 31. 25, 62. 5, 125 and 250 μmol·L-1 ). Cell morphology was observed by inverted microscope, cell survival was determined with MTT, LDH activity was measured by enzyme label kit, the MDA content and SOD activity were measured by TBA kit and WST kit, and the ROS was measured by Elisa kit. Results Compared with the model control group, all doses of acteoside could significantly improve the PC12 cell morphology and survival (P<0. 05), inhibit LDH activity and production of MDA and ROS (P<0. 05), increase the activity of SOD (P<0. 05), except for the lowest dose group. Conclusion Acteoside has protective effects on PC12 cells injured by glutamate.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of extracts ofLiaoxuan Kaxifu Powders (LE) on proliferation and transcription of IL-8 and ICAM-1 in HaCaT induced by TNF-α; To discuss its mechanism of action.Methods Cultured HaCaT was assigned into normal group, TNF-α group and low-, medium- and high-dose of LE group. Every group was induced by 40 ng/mL TNF-α except for normal group, and then LE groups were treated by different concentrations (8, 40, 200μg/mL) of LE for 48 h. The proliferation of HaCaT was evaluated by MTT and the apoptosis was detected by inverted fluorescence microscope. Levels of IL-8 and ICAM-1 in HaCaT were assessed by ELISA, and their mRNA expressions was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Results Compared with normal group, the absorbency of HaCaT and the contents and mRNA expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1 increased in TNF-α group (P<0.05,P<0.01); compared with TNF-α group, LE of all dose groups could significantly inhibit the absorbency, decrease the contents and mRNA expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1 (P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion LE is able to inhibit the proliferation of HaCaT induced by TNF-α, and the mechanism is probably related to promoting apoptosis and down-regulating the gene expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1, and then maintaining the normal level of HaCaT.

Aim To investigate the effect of acteoside (AS)on the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex of mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease(AD).Meth-ods Kunming (KM)strain mice were assigned into control group,model group,positive control group (VitE)and acteoside group.Every group was induced by a combination of D-galactose(i.p.60mg·kg -1 · d -1 )and AlCl3 (i.g.5mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )for 60ds ex-cept for control group,then mice were treated by dif-ferent concentrations(30,60,1 20 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )of acteoside for 30ds.During the time,mice were in-duced continuously by a combination of D-galactose and AlCl3 .The learning and memory of mice were de-tected by step-down test,the activity of AChE in serum and brain of mice was measured by chemical colorime-try,the structure changes in cerebral cortex were ob-served by HE staining,and the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex was analyzed through the immunohis-tochemical staining.Results Compared with model group,acteoside could improve the learning and mem-ory abilities(P <0.05 or P <0.01 ),decrease the ac-tivity of AChE in serum and brain(P <0.05 or P <0.01 ),and improve the morphology and number of neuron in cerebral cortex(P <0.01 ).Moreover,acte-oside could significantly inhibit the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex (P <0.05,P <0.01 ). Conclusion Acteoside has significantly protective effects on brain damage of mice induced by a combina-tion of D-galactose and AlCl3 , and it′s protective mechanism probably relate to inhibiting the expression of caspase-3 and maintainings the normal morphology and number of neuron in cerebral cortex.

Objective To investigate the effect of Galangin of different purity on melanocyte proliferation and melanin synthesis of A375-HaCaT co-culture system. Methods The A375-HaCaT co-culture system was established with Transwell technology, and 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10 μg/mL Galangin of the purity of 70%and 90%was used to act on the co-culture system. Cell proliferation, melanin content and tyrosinase of A375 were measured by MTT assay, NaOH lysis assay and L-DOPA oxidation assay respectively. The cytokines such as ET-1 and SCF in HaCaT were detected by ELISA. Results A375 cells in co-culture system grew well, and 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10 μg/mL Galangin of the purity of 70% and 90% had up-regulation effect on cell proliferation, melanin content and tyrosinase of A375. Moreover, Galangin could increase the expression level of ET-1 and SCF of HaCaT at more than 0.5 μg/mL, and the effect of Galangin of 70% purity was better than 90% purity. Conclusion Galangin could promote the cell proliferation, melanin content and tyrosinase of A375, and mechanism of the pathways is probably related to the up-regulation on the expression of ET-1 and SCF of HaCaT.

Objective:Vernonia anthelmintica,with complicated components,is a common medicine for the treatment of vitiligo.The purpose of this study was to establish and optimize the separation conditions of high performance liquid chromatography fingerprints(HPLC-FPs) for Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.Methods: We investigated the HPLC-FPs of different extraction samples by the retention times and relative areas of common peaks in the fingerprints.Results: We established the optimum separation conditions of HPLC-FPs for Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd,and obtained 19 common peaks in the fingerprints.The HPLC-FPs of the 85% ethanol extract were quite similar to those of the semi-bionic extract(SBE) but very different from those of the water extract of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.The No.1,4,6,11,12,14 and 16-19 peaks were the endemic ones of the HPLC-FPs of the 85% ethanol extract and SBE of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd,while No.20-30 were the endemic peaks of the HPLC-FPs of the water extract.Conclusion: The results of our study has provided experimental evidence for further investigation into the constituents absorbed into blood,pharmaceutical technology and pharmacodynamics of Vernonia anthelmintica(L.) Willd.
