Objective To establish the HPLC fingerprint for the quality control of Yanhuanglian Injections.Methods HPLC Chromatography method was used.The conditions included a Shim-pack CLC-ODS column(250 mm?6.0 mm,5 ?m),the gredient elution was adopted with acetonitrile-buffer solution(1∶1),the detection wavelength was at 285 nm,and the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min.The Operating Standard of Similarty Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Chinese Materia Medica(Version 2004A)was used to calculate.Results Similarity of 13 batches of injections was over 0.95,the fingerprint of Yanhuanglian Injections was established,and 12 common peaks were indicated.Conclusion This method can be applied to the quality control of Yanhuanglian Injections.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety between whole brain radiotherapy (WBRT) and WBRT combined with temozolomide (TMZ) in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer with brain metastases.Methods According to the retrieval strategy,the Chinese and English literatures before February 2018 were retrieved from EMbase,Cochrane,PubMed,Wanfang database,Chongqing VIP and CNKI,The target literatures were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,The quality of the included studies and extracted data was independently assessed by 3 researchers,The RevMan 5,3 and STATA 12,0 software was used for statistical analysis,The objective remission rate (ORR),the total survival period (OS),the progression-free survival (PFS),and the side effects of chemotherapy were evaluated.Results In total,17 trials consisting of 1128 patients were included,The results of Meta-analysis demonstrated that compared with the WBRT group,the ORR was significantly higher (OR=2.54;95％CI:1.93-3.36;P＜0.001),the PFS was significantly longer (MS R=1.329;95％CI:1.143-1.545;P＜0,001),and the incidence of hematological toxicity (OR=3.44;95％CI:1.63-7.26;P＜ 0.05) and the gastric intestinal reaction (OR=1.69;95％CI:1.24-2.31;P＜0.05) was significantly higher in the WBRT+TMZ group,The heterogeneities were within the acceptable range with statistical significance,The results of OS were invalid due to relatively large heterogeneity,The incidence of headache did not significantly differ between two groups (OR=1.05;95％CI:0.72-1.55;P=0,79).Conclusions Compared with WBRT alone,WBRT combined with TMZ is beneficial to improve the short-term efficacy,whereas the incidence of hematological toxicity and gastrointestinal reaction is higher,The occurrence of headache does not significantly differ between two groups,The benefit of long-term survival remains uncertain.

Plant metabolites are important for plant development and human health. Plants of celery (Apiumgraveolens L.) with different-colored petioles have been formed in the course of long-term evolution. However, the composition, content distribution, and mechanisms of accumulation of metabolites in different-colored petioles remain elusive. Using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS), 1159 metabolites, including 100 lipids, 72 organic acids and derivatives, 83 phenylpropanoids and polyketides, and several alkaloids and terpenoids, were quantified in four celery cultivars, each with a different petiole color. There were significant differences in the types and contents of metabolites in celery with different-colored petioles, with the most striking difference between green celery and purple celery, followed by white celery and green celery. Annotated analysis of metabolic pathways showed that the metabolites of the different-colored petioles were significantly enriched in biosynthetic pathways such as anthocyanin, flavonoid, and chlorophyll pathways, suggesting that these metabolic pathways may play a key role in determining petiole color in celery. The content of chlorophyll in green celery was significantly higher than that in other celery cultivars, yellow celery was rich in carotenoids, and the content of anthocyanin in purple celery was significantly higher than that in the other celery cultivars. The color of the celery petioles was significantly correlated with the content of related metabolites. Among the four celery cultivars, the metabolites of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway were enriched in purple celery. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) suggested that the differential expression of the chalcone synthase (CHS) gene in the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway might affect the biosynthesis of anthocyanin in celery. In addition, HPLC analysis revealed that cyanidin is the main pigment in purple celery. This study explored the differences in the types and contents of metabolites in celery cultivars with different-colored petioles and identified key substances for color formation. The results provide a theoretical basis and technical support for genetic improvement of celery petiole color.
