Objective To study the chemical components of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma;To establish a method to determine the content of vitexin;To compare the content difference of vitexin from Anemarrhenae Rhizoma before and after salt processing. Methods 70% ethanol extract of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma was separated and purified by silica gel column chromatography technique, and compound was identified by physicochemical properties and spectral data. HPLC was used with Ecosil column (4.6 mm×150 mm, 5μm), mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.2%acetic acid solution (14.5∶85.5), velocity of 1.0 mL/min, and determine wavelength of 340 nm. Results The compound was vitexin, a good linearity (r=0.999 8) in the range of 0.039 8-1.99μg. The average recovery rate was 98.02%, RSD=0.21%. Vitexin content was 0.008 5% in crude Anemarrhenae Rhizoma, 0.008 1% in processed products. Conclusion This is the first time separation of vitexin from Anemarrhenae Rhizoma. The method for content determination of vitexin is accurate, specific, and highly sensitive in the present experiment. Content of vitexin decreases slightly in processed products of Anemarrhenae Rhizoma compared with crude Anemarrhenae Rhizoma.

Through pot experiments, the disease index and control efficiency of TS67 cell, the fermentation liquid of TS67 and the supernatant of TS67 separately act on Fusarium oxysporum and Bipolaris maydis was detected. Experiment results analysis with SPSS statistical analysis software indicated all treatments of TS67 could inhibit both of soybean root rot disease and corn southern leaf blight (P

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the inhibitory actions of 3 traditional Chinese drugs on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2 in vitro.METHODS:The IC50(50% inhibiting concentration)of 3 traditional Chinese drugs on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2 in vitro was measured by MTT assay.RESULTS:The inhibitory actions of 3 traditional Chinese drugs on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells CNE-2 in vitro were enhanced with the increase of the concentration in a concentration-dependent manner,with formulation Ⅲ showing the most potent inhibitory action on CNE-2 cells in vitro.CONCLUSION:The heat-clearing and detoxicating traditional Chinese drugs could markedly inhibit the proliferation of CNE-2 cells.

Objective To explore the acute toxic reactions of memantine in neonatal rats. Methods Based on Completely Lethal dose(LD_(100)) and median lethal dose (LD_(50))of memantine in SD neonatal rats acquired in a preliminary test of death dose, 60 neonatal rats were randomly divided into normal group which were given water injection intraperitoneally and 5 study groups which were given different doses of memantine intraperitoneally.LD_(50) was calculated with Bliss method and the toxic reactions of memantine were observed in all neonatal rats of 6 groups after administration of memantine. Results LD_(50) of memantine in SD neonatal rats was((74.386?2.811)) mg/kg with 95% confidence at the range of 59.334-93.257 mg/kg.Side effects occurred at 1-4 minutes after administration. Excitatory jitteriness,ataxia,decreased respiratory rate and passivity were usually observed in groups with a lower dosage (52.0 mg/kg,61.2 mg/kg,72.0 mg/kg);some of them also manifested side lying, cyanosis and respiratory failure.While neonatal rats with a higher dosage (85 mg/kg,100 mg/kg)mainly manifested visible symptoms of inhibition, respiratory failure,side (lying) and cyanosis.However,no jitteriness and ataxia were observed in them.The neonatal rats usually died around 1 hour after memantine administration;survival rats usually returned to normal 4-5 hours after administration.Conclusion There is a positive correlation between toxic reactions and the mortality with memantine dosage in neonatal rats.

Objective:To analyze therapeutic effect of homocysteine (Hcy)‐lowering therapy on serum levels of Hcy and inflammatory factors in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD ) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods :A total of 82 CHD patients who received PCI in our hospital were selected .According to random number table ,they were randomly and equally divided into routine treatment group (received routine postoperative therapy) and Hcy‐lowering group .Serum levels of Hcy ,inflammatory factors ,N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic pep‐tide (NT‐proBNP) and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (sICAM‐1) were compared between two groups . Results :1) On six months and one year after treatment ,compared with routine treatment group ,serum Hcy level significantly reduced [after six months: (15.39 ± 1.83) μmol/L vs . (13.21 ± 1.35) μmol/L ,after one year :(15.61 ± 1.62)μmol/L vs . (8.73 ± 0.72)μmol/L] in Hcy‐lowering group ;2) after six‐month treatment ,compared with routine treatment group ,there were significant reductions in serum levels of CRP [ (67.27 ± 7.51) mg/L vs . (37.11 ± 6.32) mg/L] ,IL‐6 [ (87.58 ± 7.21)μg/L vs . (60.17 ± 5.45)μg/L] ,procalcitonin [PCT , (21.34 ± 3.04) ng/L vs .(15.61 ± 2.32) ng/L] ,NT‐proBNP [ (298.37 ± 53.28) pg/ml vs .(104.28 ± 13.17) pg/ml] and sI‐CAM‐1 [ (391.83 ± 75.04) ng/ml vs .(162.18 ± 30.26) ng/ml] in Hcy‐lowering group , P<0.05 all .Conclusion:Hcy‐lowering therapy is help to reduce serum Hcy level ,relieve systemic inflammatory response and protect myocar‐dial function in CHD patients after PCI .

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Xiaoyao powder combined with prozac and psychological therapy on post-stroke depression (PSD).Methods85 PSD patients were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=43) and control group (n=42). All patients were treated with routine therapy, including prozac and psychological therapy. Patients in the treatment group were also given Xiaoyao powder. Scores of Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), modified Barthel index (MBI) and Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS) of all patients were evaluated before and after therapy.ResultsAfter treatment, the effective rate and MBI scores were significantly higher and scores of HAMD and SSS were significantly lower for patients of the treatment group compared with those of the control group (P<0.01).ConclusionXiaoyao powder combined with prozac and psychological therapy can improve depression and neural function of PSD patients significantly.

objective To evaluate the distribution and significance of IgG subclasses of antithyroglobulin antibody in sera from patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis.Methods Sera from 112 patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis were collected and patients were divided into 3 groups,i.e.hypothyroidism,subclinical hypothyroidism and euthyroidism.Antigen specific ELISA was used to detect the distribution of IgG subclasses of antithyroglobulin antibody.Results The positive rates of IgG subclasses of TgAb were IgG1 90.2%,IgG2 58.0%,IgG3 19.6%and IgG4 87.5%respectively.The mean geometric titers of IgG1 in sera from patients with hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism were 1:450.8 and 1:245.5 respectively,both being significantly higher than that with euthyroidism(1:8.7,P＜0.01).The mean geometric titers of IgG2 in sera from patients with hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism were 1:37.3 and 1:3.2 respectively,both being also significantly higher than that with euthyroidism(1:0.2,P＜0.01 and P＜0.05 respectively)and that with hypothyroidism was significantly higher than that with subclinical hypothyroidism(P＜0.05).Conclusion The distribution of IgG subclasses of antithyroglobulin antibody in sera from patients with Hashimoto thyroiditis was predominantly IgG1,IgG2 and IgG4.High titers of IgG1 and IgG2 implicated the possibility of development from subclinical hypothyroidism to overt hypothyroidism.
