This study was aimed to optimize the extraction process of hyperoside from leaves ofAcanthopanax senticosusby compounding-enzyme method and orthogonal experiment. The hyperoside compound was regarded as standard and determined by HPLC. Based on the experiments of 4 factors including the enzyme amount, temperature, extraction time and PH values, the extraction process of hyperoside was determined by the orthogonal experiments and variance analysis. The results of single-factor experiments showed that different enzymes showed different effects on the enhance yield of hyperoside. The effects of different factors showed that the order of PH, neutral protease, temperature, time, pectinase, xylanase and cellulose was from strong to weak. Through orthogonal analysis, the optimum conditions were 2% pectinase, 2% xylanase, 0.5% neutral protease, and 0.5% cellulose, under the temperature of 30°C, extraction time of 10 min, and pH = 4.5. Under these conditions, the extraction rate was 1.84%. The yield was increased 107% compared with traditional process. It was concluded that the use of compounding enzyme can increase the yield of hyperoside, which possessed a lot of economic benefits.

Objective To investigate the effect of long non-coding RNA F19 (lncRNA F19) on secondary brain injury following traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice. Methods (1) A total of 96 C57BL/6J male wild-type mice were divided into sham group, sham+control lentivirus group, sham+F19 lentivirus group, TBI group, TBI+control lentivirus group and TBI+F19 lentivirus group according to the random number table. Each group consisted of two subgroups of 1 day and 3 days after TBI, with eight mice per subgroup. The expression and silence efficiency of lncRNA F19 were detected. ( 2 ) A total of 96 C57BL/6J male wild-type mice were divided into sham group, TBI+control lentivirus group and TBI + F19 lentivirus group according to the random number table. Each group consisted of two subgroups of 1 day and 3 days after TBI, with 16 mice per subgroup. The effect of lncRNA F19 on neuronal apoptosis after TBI was recorded. The mice TBI model was established using the controlled cortical damage method (CCI). The lncRNA F19 lentivirus or control lentivirus were administrated by intracerebroventricular injection 5 days before injury. The expressions of lncRNA F19 ( 2 -ΔΔct ) were detected by real-time quantitative PCR ( qRT-PCR ) at 1 day and 3 days after injury. The Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), B lymphocyte tumor-2 (Bcl-2) and Bcl-2 related protein (Bax) expressions were detected by Western blot. The TUNEL was used to detect apoptosis around the traumatic lesions. Results From the first day after injury, both in the sham operation and TBI groups, the control lentivirus had no effect on the level of lncRAN F19 (P >0. 05). One day after injury, compared with sham +control lentivirus group, the levels of lncRNA F19 in sham + F19 lentivirus group were significantly decreased (0. 07 ± 0. 07:0. 93 ± 0. 17);compared with TBI+control lentivirus group, levels of lncRNA F19 in TBI+F19 lentivirus group were significantly decreased (2. 91 ± 1. 18:0. 52 ± 0. 32) (P<0. 05). There were significantly lower protein levels of TLR4 (0. 51 ± 0. 13:0. 66 ± 0. 15), Bax (0. 45 ± 0. 06:0. 67 ± 0. 16), lower TUNEL-positive neurons ratio [(23. 55 ± 6. 85)% : (31. 58 ± 7. 52)%], but higher protein levels of Bcl-2 (0. 76 ± 0. 16:0. 47 ± 0. 12) in TBI+F19 lentivirus group compared with the TBI+ control lentivirus group (P <0.05). Three days after injury, compared with sham + control lentivirus group, levels of lncRNA F19 in sham+F19 lentivirus group were significantly decreased (0. 11 ± 0. 09:0. 96 ± 0. 09); compared with TBI+control lentivirus group, levels of lncRNA F19 in TBI+F19 lentivirus group were significantly decreased (0. 54 ± 0. 24:3. 39 ± 0. 90) (P <0. 05). There were significantly lower protein levels of TLR4 (0. 60 ± 0. 20):(0. 85 ± 0. 09)], lower Bax (0. 60 ± 0. 12:0. 88 ±0. 21), lower TUNEL-positive neurons ratio [(29. 10 ± 7. 37)% :(39. 22 ± 10. 64)%], but higher protein levels of Bcl-2 (0. 66 ± 0. 12:0. 35 ± 0. 16) in TBI+F19 lentivirus group compared with the TBI+control lentivirus group (P<0. 05). Conclusion Inhibition of lncRNA F19 can significantly reduce the TLR4-induced neuronal apoptosis in cortex after TBI in mice and alleviate reduce the secondary brain injury.
