Gindenosides are the active ingredients of Panax ginseng. 20 (S) -protopanaxadiolocotillol type epimers are the main metabolites of 20 (S) -protopanaxadiol. The previous studies showed that there are stereoselectivity difference in pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics between 24R-epimer and 24S-epimer. The purpose of this study was to explore the excretion of the epimers in bile, feces and urine of rat. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method has been performed for determination of 24R-epimer and 24S-epimer in bile, feces and urine. 24R-epimer or 24S-epimer was intragastric administered to rats at a single dose of 10 mg x kg(-1). Results showed that after administration the recovery of 24R-epimer and 24S-epimer in feces was 17.69% and 17.09%, respectively, while both of the two epimers were hardly detected in urine. The 48 h cumulative biliary excretion rate of 24R-epimer was 8.01% after administration, while only 1.47% for 24S-epimer. It indicated that there are stereoselectivity in biliary excretion of the epimers with intragastric administration.

The children were examined by B-ultrasonic(B-u s),computed tomography(CT), and MRCP with the accuracy of 83.7 %, 78.9 % and 80. 0 % respectively.Forty cases underwent biliary reconstruction, cystectomy and Ro ux-en -Y bilioenteric anastomosis. There was no mortality, pre or postoperative compli cation. Conclusion B-us examination is the best method to diag nose the disease.Cystectomy and biliary reconstruction are effect to treat this disease.

Objective To investigate the MRI features of different fibrotic stroma of hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and the relationships between them and delayed contrast-enhanced MR findings. Methods Twenty eight patients were enrolled in the study who had undergone dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI scanning. MRI showed largely complete rim-like enhancement in delayed phase in all the lesions which were confirmed by surgery and pathology. Delayed-enhancement in peripheral and internal position of HCC were evaluated and the thicknesses of rim-like enhancement in delayed phase were measured by analyzing the 5 minute delayed images. Among the 28 lesions, 22 were sampled and pathologically analyzed both in peripheral and internal portion of HCC and the remaining 6 were in the internal portion only. The pathological features were observed including distributions of three fibers (elastic, collagen and reticular fibers) in the periphery and internal positions of HCC, degrees of inflammatory cells infiltration outside the capsule and in the internal portion of HCC, the blood vessels in the capsules and thicknesses of fibrous capsule. The pathological features of HCC with different degrees of delayed-enhancement were compared using χ2 test, and differences in the thicknesses of rim-like enhancement of HCC in delayed phase among different pathological features were analyzed using Chi-square test. Results (1) In the periphery:pathological features: the typical fibrous capsules showed in all 22 HCC. And three kinds of fibers were crisscrossed within the capsules without quantitative differences. MRI findings:statistical differences in the amounts of blood vessels in the capsule of HCC among different degrees of delayed-enhancement were found (P<0.05), however, the differences in the thicknesses of fibrous capsule and the degrees of inflammatory cells infiltration were not found (all P>0.05). In addition, the statistical differences in the thicknesses of rim-like enhancement of HCC showed among different thicknesses of fibrous capsule, degrees of inflammatory cells infiltration and amounts of blood vessels (all P<0.05). (2) In the internal positions:pathological features: the amounts of three kinds of fibers in the internal positions were significantly lower than those in the periphery. MRI findings: the statistical differences in collagen fibers, elastic fibers, reticular fibers and the degrees of infiltration of inflammatory cells of HCC were all seen among different degrees of delayed enhancement inside tumors (all P<0.05). Conclusion The delayed MR enhancement of HCC in peripheral and internal positions showed correlation with the fibers and degrees of infiltration of inflammatory cells in the tumor.

The culture medium and cultural conditions of solid-state fermentation of Streptomyces Menmyco-93-63 were tested in this study. The suitable medium which contains rice, sorghum, millet bran, and rice hull with the proportion of 2:2:3:3 was developed for the spore production of Streptomyces Men-myco-93-63 using single substrate screening, mixture substrate screening and orthogonal experiments, and the sporulation was up to 2.52?109 CFU/g. And then, initial charge, initial ratio of water to solid, inoculating quantity, and culture temperature impact to sporulation of Streptomyces Men-myco-93-63 were tested. The favorite cultural conditions are developed as the following: the initial charge is 15 g in 500 mL Erlenmeyer flask; initial ratio of water to solid is 1.7:1.0 (V/W, rice hull excluding), inoculating quantity is 7 mL, culture temperature is 28℃.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Jiuqiang Naoliqing(JNQ) on the TXA2 and PGI2 level in spontaneous hypertension rat (SHR) plasma.MethodsThe plasma was separated after the SHR and Wistar rats were treated with JNQ at the dose of 0.133g/kg,0.265g/kg,0.530g/kg and 1% carboxymethyl cellulose respectively for 5 weeks. The level of TXB2 and 6 keto PGF1α ,stable metabolin of TXA2 and PGI 2,in SHR plasma was tested by radioimmunoassay.ResultsThe level of TXB2 and the ratio of TXB2/6 keto PGF1α (T/P) in SHR plasma increased significantly(P<0.01),and there was no significant difference in the concentration of 6 keto PGF1α between Wistar rats and SHR plasma(P>0.05). JNQ could increase the generation of 6 keto PGF1α and decrease the level of TXB2 and T/P in SHR plasma after treated with different dosages for 5 weeks.ConclusionJNQ may improve the balance between TXA2 and PGI2 in SHR plasma.

This study was aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of two molecular targeted therapeutic drugs, tyrosine kinase inhibitors gefitinib and lapatinib, on JAK2 V617F positive myeloproliferative disorders (MPD). The human leukemia cell line (HEL cell line) carrying JAK2 V617F mutation was treated with gefitinib (0.5, 1, 5, 10, 25 µmol/L) and lapatinib (0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 µmol/L) respectively. MTT method was used to detect HEL cell proliferation. The apoptotic rate and cell cycle were measured by flow cytometry. The results showed that gefitinib could significantly inhibit the proliferation of HEL cells in a dose-dependent manner, it's correlation coefficients for 24 and 48 h were 0.991 and 0.895 respectively. IC(50) at 48 h was 5.4 µmol/L. Gefitinib could effectively induce apoptosis of HEL cells in a dose-dependent manner (r = 0.896). Otherwise, gefitinib could arrest HEL cells at G(0)/G(1) phase. The inhibitory effect of lapatinib was less than gefitinib, it's IC(50) of inhibiting proliferation of HEL cells was 19.6 µmol/L. It is concluded that both gefitinib and lapatinib can inhibit the proliferation of HEL cells. These two tyrosine kinase inhibitors can be used for researching of targeted therapy of JAK2 V617 positive MPD.

A in vitro platelet aggregation bioassay was developed for the quality control of XST capsules. The in vitro anti-platelet aggregation effect in rats was observed to detect the bioactivity of XST capsules. Panax notoginseng saponins and Xuesaitong lyophilizedpowder for injection were taken as standard control substances to determine the potency. According to the results, XST capsules showeda significant inhibitory effect on thrombin-induced platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent manner. The in vitro anti-platelet activity oflyophilized powder for injection was stabler than that of Panax notoginseng saponins, and so suitable to serve as a standard control substance. The biological potency of XST capsules compared with standard control substance was detected by using parallel line assay. According to the results, the established bioassay method had a good repeatability (RSD 2.92%). The sample test results could pass thereliability test(linear deviation P > 0.05, parallel deviation P > 0.05). This bioassay method could be used as one of the complementary quality control methods for XST capsules.
