OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effects of Ginkgolides(GL)on cerebral ischemia in experimental rodents. METHODS:The models of decapitative mice and acute incomplete cerebral ischemic(AICI)rats were used.The gasp duration of decapitative mice and cerebral index,water content of brain,cerebral capillary permeability and hemorrheological parameters in rats were determined.RESULTS:Ginkgolides could prolong gasp duration of decapitative mice,increase the cerebral index and the water content of brain,inhibit capillary permeability,improve hemorrheological parameters and decrease blood viscosi?ty.CONCLUSION:Ginkgolides may antagonize the damage of cerebral ischemia.

Objective: To explore the anticancer mechanism of Stellera chamaejasme L. abstracts with water (SCLA). Methods: SCLA drugserum was derived after different time from mice which was orally peradministrated with different dose of SCLA. the effects of the serum on the roliferation of human gastric adnocacinoma SCG7901 cells were observed with MTT assay and clone formation methods.Results: After treatment with the drugserum derived at 1,2,3h from mice pertreated with SCLA(5,10 and 20g?kg -1 ), the MTT formazan and cone formation of gastric adnocacinoma SGC7901 cells were decreased significantly. SCLA from the mice which were given the drugserum 2h later was more effective than others. Conclusions: SCLA had a remarkable inhibitory effects on proliferation of gastric adnocacinoma SGC7901 cells, which may be the main anticancer mechanisms of SCLA.

The antiumor activity of a new podophyllotoxin spin-labeled derivative, 4 -C 4 "-( 2 ", 2", C", 6"-tetramethyl- 1 "-piperidinyoxy ) amino]-4'-demethylepipodophyllotoxin ( GP-7 ) was studied. It was found that the growth of transplanted mouse tumors S180, HePS and Lewis lung cancer was markedly inhibited by GP-7. At a dose of 7.5-20 mg/kg, the inhibition rates of it against Sl80, HePS and Lewis lung cancer were 36.0-58.4, 29.6-60.0, and 27.2-46.5 % respectively. The toxicity of GP-7 was low, as indicated by the LD50 value of 231.2 mg/kg which was 3.3 times higher than that of etoposide ( VP-16 ) . On the other hand, the effects of GP-7 on spleen index and thymus index of mice bearing S180 tumor were remarkably lower than that of VP-16. In vitro GP-7 exhibited marked inhibition effects against L1210 and SGC-7901 cells. After exposure of L1210 cells to GP-7 and VP-16 5 mg/L for 24 h, the. inhibition rates were 75.5 and 73.6 %. after exposure of SGC-7901 cells to GP-7 and VP-16 5 mg/L for 72 h, the inhibition rates were 81.4 and 84.2 %. The new podophyllotoxin derivative GP-7 was similar to its structure analogues, clinical drug VP-16, in antitumor activity, while the toxicity of it was much lower than that of VP-16.

History and current situation of hospital preparation in our country and practical demands of pharmaceutical industry were analyzed. With the implementation of GMP in pharmaceutical industry and enhanced drug administration, lots of problems were exposed. The scale of hospital preparation was decreasing year by year, though it still stayed at a predominate position in hospital works currently.

In order to study the enhancement of immune functions and autologous tumor-killing (ATX) activity by kappa-selenocarrageenan (KSC) in mice bearing sarcoma 180, the effects of KSC and/or Cyclophosphamide (Cy) on natural killer(NK) activity, lymphokine activated killer(LAK) activity, the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2), ATK activity and the growth of sarcoma 180 (S180) were observed. The results showed that KSC promoted NK activity, LAK activity and ATK activity in vivo, increased IL-2 production at 40mg/kg ?d x 9d. It also enhanced the antitumor action of Cy (20mg/kg?d x 9d) and offsetted the inhibition of Cy on immunocompetent cells. The ATK activity in splenocytes of SI80-bearing mice could be induced and augmented by recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) in vitro. In conclution, KSC had a up-regulating effect on immune functions and ATK activity in tumor-bearing mice, therefore, can be used as a biological response modifier (BRM) in cancer biotherapy.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of different operation methods on the residual amount of docetaxel. METH-ODS:60 Docetaxel injections were selected and divided into two groups,i.e. standard operation method was adopted in group A (30 injections),and clinical common operation method was used in group B(30 injections). Docetaxel injections were placed for 5,10 or 15 minutes respectively,and drained. Residual liquid was collected to calculate residual amount. The difference of residual amount,due to preparation method and standing time,were compared between two groups. RESULTS:After placing for 5,10 or 15 min,the volume and amount of residual liquid in group B were significantly higher than in group A(P<0.05). In same group, the volume and amount of residual liquid after placing for 10 and 15 min were all lower than that after placing for 5 min(P<0.05 or P<0.01);the volume and amount of residual liquid after placing for 15 min were lower than that after placing for 10 min(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The standard operation of pharmacy dispensing staff is very important to reduce the residual amount of docetaxel,and guarantee safe,effective and sufficient medication. It is suggested that clinical staff should abide by standard opera-tion method.

AIM To observe the changes of blood glucose level, plasma insulin level and liver glycogen content and regulatory effects of rehmannia glutinosa oligosaccharides(ROS) on glucose metabolism in thymectomized rats. METHODS ①Plasma glucose level, liver glycogen content and plasma insulin level of thymectomized rats were determined three,four, eight and fifteen month after thymectomy operation; ②Effects of ROS (250 mg?kg -1 , po ,?60 d) on spleencyte proliferation,blood glucose level,liver glycogen content, plasma insulin level and plasma corticosterone level in thymectomized rats were investigated seven month after thymectomy. RESULTS From 8 months after thymectomy liver glycogen content and plasma insulin level increased in thymectomized rats, though no obvious changes in blood glucose level were found during the experiment; ②Changes of glucose metabolism in thymectomized rats were largely reversed and normalized with ROS: Increased liver glycogen content turned to be normal,increased plasma insulin level,decreased corticosterone level and decreased splenocyte proliferation in thymectomized rats became normal. CONCLUSION Some changes in glucose metabolism are induced by thymectomy in rats, which can be largely reversed by ROS.

Objective:To establish an HPLC method for the content determination of salvianolic acid B in Ansheng Yizhi cap-sules. Methods:A Hypersil ODS2 C18 column(150 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm) was used and methanol-water-formic acid (40∶60∶1) was used as the mobile phase. The detection wavelength was at 286 nm. The flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 and the sample size was 10 μl. Results:The calibration curve of salvianolic acid B was linear within the range 7. 75-77. 51 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 6). The average re-covery was 98. 17%(RSD=1. 79%, n=6). Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate and repeatable, which can be used in the quality control of Ansheng Yizhi capsules.

3), the intra-day RSD was less than 10% and the inter-day RSD was less than 12%. The average recovery stood at 86.96%. CONCLUSION: The established method is simple, rapid, precise and suitable for the determination and pharmacological study of faropenem in human plasma.
