Objective: To investigate the spectrum-activity relationship between HPLC of Trionycis Carapax from different regions and its anti-hepatic fibrosis efficacy, in order to reveal the "active component group" for anti-hepatic fibrosis efficacy of Trionycis Carapax. Methods: The samples from 12 regions were determined with the HPLC-DAD method. The representative standard fingerprint was calculated using the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Version 2004A). The common patten and the principal component analysis (PCA) were established. Using the LX-2 hepatic stellate cell as a hepatic fibrosis model of Trionycis Carapax to study its inhibition on the hepatic fibrosis cells. The spectrum-effect relationship was studied by SPSS 19.0 software. Results: Seven common peaks in the HPLC-fingerprint of Trionycis Carapax were obtained. It was tentatively concluded that peaks 2 and 5 related better to the inhibitory effect of LX-2 cells (OD value) in the seven characteristic peaks. Peak 4 had the strongest correlation. And the quality of Trionycis Carapax was influenced by the concentration of peak 4 obtained by PCA. Conclusion: All the samples could inhibit the proliferation of LX-2 hepatic stellate cell in some extent. There may be a certain relationship between HPLC fingerprint and anti-hepatic fibrosis efficacy. In addition, the research could be used as the quality control method of Trionycis Carapax.

Objective: To explore the effects of different pulverization fineness of solid preparations of Chinese materia medica on their in vitro dissolution, using MTT method combined with HPLC. Methods: Compound Biejia Ruangan Tablet (CBRT) was used as model drug, and MTT method was used to obtain the characteristic cell inhibitory rate by different pulverization fineness of dissolving solutions in the dissolution medium (phosphate buffer, pH value 7.4) at different time points. From these results, the cumulative dissolution of CBRT based on cell inhibitory rate was obtained. The dissolution rates of paeoniflorin was determined by HPLC method. Using f2 similar factor, the relevance of these two methods was evaluated. Results: Dissolution of paeoniflorin is changed with the change of pulverization fineness, the accumulative dissolutions of 200 and 300 meshes in vitro were higher than those of other meshes. The results showed that f2 values of 200 and 300 meshes were more than 50, indicating that there was a good correlation between the two methods of measuring the dissolution rate. Conclusion: The results show that the biological potency detection could be used to screen the particle size of CBRT. Considering the production cost of CBRT, 200 mesh is the best particle size.

Objective: To investigate the integral dissolution model based on biological potency in order to evaluate the dissolution of Compound Chinese materia medica (CCMM) in vitro. Methods: The contents of paeoniflorin, phillyrin, ginsenoside Rg1, and adenosine of ten batches of Compound Biejia Ruangan Tablet (CBRT) were determined at different times. The self-defined weighting coefficient based on the contents has been created to establish the integral dissolution model. In addition, the biological potency of CBRT was measured by MTT assay. Then, the f2 similar factor was used to evaluate the similarity of the batches. Results: Compared with batch a, some batches' f2 values of paeoniflorin and adenosine were less than 50, while f2 values of ginsenoside Rg1, phillyrin, and integral component were more than 50. Likewise, ginsenoside Rg1, phillyrin, and integral component were all in good correlation with biological dissolution. Conclusion: The results of the integral dissolution based on biological test of CBRT demonstrate that the bioassay method may be a promising supplement for its quality evaluation.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of nodular gastritis,duodenal ulcer before and after eradicative treatment of helicobactor pylori(Hp) infection in children with gastroscopy.Methods This was a retrospective analysis of 1 275 children,age ranging 1 to 16 years old,collected from our hospital in recent 10 years,detecting rates of before eradicative treatment and after eradicative treatment were analyzed.Gastroscopes were analyzed with regard to a possible association with the infection.Results The detecting rate(11.89%) of duodenal ulcer after eradicative treatment was lower than that(17%) before eradicative treatment(P

0.05).There was significant difference of curative effect before and after treatment of children with RAP(?2=6.74,P

ObjectiveTo find out if the immune system derived thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH) β splice variant(TSHβ-Ⅴ) would be regulated by circulating thyroid hormone levels to get a further understanding of the function and mechanism of this TSHβ-Ⅴ in thyroid homeostasis.MethodsA total of 20 weaning Balb/c mice (half male and half female) were selected and randomly divided into two groups according to their body mass and gender(n =10).Mice of control group were fed with common diet and deionized water.Mice of the low-iodine(LI) group were fed with low-iodine diet(containing iodine 20 - 40 μg/kg,iodine-intake about 0.25 μg/d) and deionized water.The experimental period was 3 months.At the end of the experiment,mice were executed and the blood was collected to observe the levels of TSH and thyroid hormone by chemiluminescence immunoassay (CIA) ; bone marrow (BM),peripheral blood(PBL),thyroid gland and pituitary were collected to assay the TSHβ-Ⅴ mRNA expression by real-time quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).ResultsThe serum free thyroxine(FT4) and total thyroxine(TT4) levels in LI group of mice[(0.47 ± 0.70)nmol/L,(2.41 ± 0.28)pmol/L] were significantly lower than that of the control group of mice [(55.2 ± 3.68) nmol/L, (32.72 ± 1.02) pmol/L,t =43.81,86.04 、all P ＜ 0.01 ] and the serum total triiodothyronine(TT3) and free triiodothyronine(FT3) reduction in LI group of mice[ (0.76 ± 0.08)nmol/L,(4.01 ± 0.40)pmol/L] were significantly lower than that of the control group of mice [ (1.10 ± 0.06)nmol/L,(5.40 ± 0.38)pmol/L,t =9.81,7.5 1,P ＜ 0.01 ].Iodine insufficiency strongly elevated the serum TSH in LI group of mice[ (35.67 ± 17.39)mU/L] than that in control group of mice[ (0.24 ± 0.10)mU/L,t =- 6.11,P ＜ 0.01 ].The mRNA levels of TSH β-Ⅴ in BM (9.62 ± 0.60) and in PBL( 9.25 ± 0.83 ) of LI group of mice were lower than those in control group of mice (7.69 ± 0.36,7.11 ± 0.41,t =6.77,5.64,P ＜ 0.01),while the mRNA level of TSH β-Ⅴ in pituitary of LI group of mice (1.99 ± 0.61) was increased compared with that in control group of mice (5.75 ± 0.98,t =- 8.02,P＜ 0.01).Compared with control group of mice(9.12 ± 0.62),the level of thyroid TSH β-Ⅴ mRNA in LI group of mice (9.32 ± 0.91 ) was not significantly changed (t =0.45,P ＞ 0.05).There was no detectable native TSHβ in BM,PBL and thyroid.The mRNA level of native TSHβ in pituitary in LI group of mice( - 7.17 ± 1.78) was dramatically elevated compared to that in control group of mice( - 1.43 ± 0.51,t =- 7.60,P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionsThe mRNA levels of TSHβ-Ⅴ are suppressed in BM and PBL in low iodinediet induced hypothyroidism mice,which suggest that immune system derived TSHβ-Ⅴ may be more important thannative TSHβ in immune-thyroid regulation.
