A method for determination of 6 plant growth regulators by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( HPLC-MS/MS ) coupled with isotope-coded derivatization was developed. d0-10-Methyl-acridone-2-sulfonyl piperazine ( d0-MASPz, light form) and d3-10-methyl-acridone-2-sulfonyl piperazine ( d3-MASPz, heavy form ) were prepared as isotope-coded derivatization reagents for carboxyl compound. The carboxyl plant growth regulator standards and real samples were derivatized by d0-MASPz and d3-MASPz, respectively. The obtained solutions were mixed at a certain ratio, and then injected for HPLC-MS/MS analysis. The light and heavy derivatives were monitored with transitions of [M+H]+m/z 208. 2 and [M+H]+ m/z 211. 2,respectively. With heavy derivative as internal standard for corresponding light derivative, the global isotope internal standard quantification for 6 plant growth regulators was achieved. The results indicated that the proposed isotope-coded derivatization method could provide relative quantitative data with adequate linearity in a 10-fold dynamic range ( R=0 . 9991 ) . The detection and quantitation limits were 0. 19-0. 34 μmol/L and 0. 53-0. 96 μmol/L, respectively. The relative standard deviations were ≤3 . 8%, and the accuracies ranged from 97 . 5% to 103 . 8%.

Objective To summarize our experience in the prevention and treatment of right accessory hepatic duct and right hepatic duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods The clinical data of 21 cases with right accessory hepatic duct or right hepatic duct during laparoscopic cholecystectomy were reviewed retrospectively. Result According to anatomy identified by preoperative work-up and selective cholangiography during the operation, 18 cases had the right accessory hepatic duct,eleven of them were confirmed intraoperatively. The accessory hepatic ducts were conserved in 3 cases and clipped without biliary leaks postoperativly in 7 cases; One case had biliary leaks postoperatively with the duct sutured intraoperatively, and recovered well conservative therapy. Accessory hepatic ducts were accidentally injuried in 7 cases, two patients were transferred to open surgery; three cases were confirmed to be injuried and clipped by second laparoscopic exploration because of biliary leaks postoperatively. Three cases had a low confluence of the right and left hepatic duct with the gallbladder duct joining the right bile duct, the ducts were conserved in 2 cases and injuried in one. Postoperatively all these 21 cases were followed up for 2 years, without jaundice or liver dysfunction. Conclusions To prevent injury of right accessory hepatic duct and right hepatic duct. High vigilance and familiarity with the anatomic variants of the biliary tree and intraoperative cholangiography in selective cases are fundmental.

[ ABSTRACT] AIM:To investigate the effect of triptolide on the inhibition of microglial activation in 1-methyl-4-phenyl pyridinium ( MPP+)-induced hemiparkinson disease rats.METHODS:The rat model of Parkinson disease was es-tablished by intranigral injection of MPP +.The rats were randomly divided into sham group, MPP+group, triptolide group and vehicle group.The survival of dopaminergic neurons was detected by the immunofluorescence of tyrosine hydroxylase ( TH) in the substantia nigra ( SN) .The activation of microglia was determined by immunofluorescence of OX-42 ( micro-glia marker) in the SN.The expression of chemokine receptor CX3CR1 in SN was measured by Western blotting.RE-SULTS:Intranigral injection of MPP+increased the fluorescence intensity of the microglial marker, and promoted DA neu-ron degenerative death.Immunohistological analysis showed that the OX-42 density was decreased (P<0.01) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) positive neurons were increased in the triptolide group (P<0.01).The expression of CX3CR1 was lower in triptolide group than that in model group (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Triptolide may improve PA neurons func-tion in MPP+-induced rats through inhibiting CX3CR1 expression and microglial activation.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect of Dengzhan Shengmai capsule (DZSM) in rat cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury and to explore the mechanism. Methods Rats were divided into Sham group, MCAO group, DZSM group, carbenoxolone (CBX) group and DZSM + CBX group. Each group was assessed for neurological function , infarct volume and the expression of Caspase-3 48 h after reperfusion. Connexin 43 (Cx43) expression of MCAO group was detected 3, 12, 24, 48 h after reperfusion. Results There were lower neurological deficit scores , infarct volume and the expression of Caspase-3 in DZSM , CBX and DZSM + CBX group 48 h after reperfusion when compared with those in MCAO group (P < 0.05) but Cx43 expression level in each group increased after reperfusion at each time point (P < 0.05). Expression of Cx43 was lower in DZSM, CBX and DZSM + CBX group than that in MCAO group (P < 0.05). Lower expression of Cx43 was also seen in CBX and DZSM + CBX group when compared with that in DZSM group (P < 0.05). Conclusion DZSM capsule can improve neurological function , reduce infarct volume and inhibit the expression of Caspase-3. The mechanism may be related to its inhibition of Cx43 expression.
