The quality control method and standard were established to control the quality of Pteris multifida in this paper. The tests of water content, total ash, acid-unsoluble ash and ethanol-soluble extractives of P. multifida were carried out according to the methods recorded in appendix of Chinese Pharmacopeia (2010 edition, volume 1) . The TLC method was established by using rhoifolin as references, and a mixture of CHCl3 -MeOH-HAc (6: 1: 1) as the developing solvent system on GF254 thin layer plate. The contents of rhoifolin was determined by HPLC on a Diamonsil C18 (4.6 mm x 250 mm, 5 μm) column, using acetonitrile-water (containing 0.15% formic acid) (16: 84) as mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL x min(-1). The column temperature was 30 degrees C and the detection wave-length was 350 nm. As a result, pterosin C 3-O-β-D-glucosidede and the other constituents were well separated on TLC detected under the UV light at 254 nm . The methodology validation for the assay of rhoifolin presented that it was in good linear correlation in the ranges of 0.025 5-5.1 μg with the regression equations of Y = 1 092.4X + 9.503 5 (r = 0.999 8), and the average recoveries were 100.3% (RSD 1.3%). The content range of rhoifolin from 16 different batches of Pteris multifida was 0.08-5.06 mg x g(-1). The water content, total ash, acid-unsoluble ash and ethanol-soluble extractives of 16 samples varied in the ranges of 7.35% - 12.96%, 6.90% - 16.33%, 2.07% -11.38% and 13.29% -23.87%, respectively. The suggesting limes in the quality standard for water content, total ash, acid-unsoluble ash, ethanol-soluble extractives and rhoifolin content were ≤ 12% , ≤ 15% , ≤ 8.5% , ≥ 14% and ≥ 0.040%, respectively. The result proved that the established quality of control method was specific and accurate, which can be used for the quality control of P. multifida.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effects of prostate stromal cells from different zones of normal prostate tissue on the growth of prostate cancer cells and their action mechanisms.
METHODSWe extracted stromal cells in the fresh normal prostatic tissue derived from the peripheral zone (PZ) or transitional zone (TZ), amplified them in vitro, and used the supernatants of the cells as conditioned media to culture hormone-resistant prostate cancer DU145 cells. We measured the growth curve of the tumor cells using the CCK8 method, determined the number and viability of the cells by trypan blue staining, evaluated their invasiveness by scratch test, and detected the effects of the stromal cells on the key enzymes in the glycolysis of the tumor cells by Western blot.
RESULTSThe conditioned medium with the PZ-derived stromal cells promoted, while that with the TZ-derived stromal cells inhibited the growth of the tumor cells. The former significantly increased, while the latter markedly decreased the expressions of the key enzymes hexokinase 2 (HK-2), pyruvate kinase 2 (PKM-2), lactate dehydrogenase (LDHA), and pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) in the glycolysis of the tumor cells.
CONCLUSIONProstate stromal cells from different zones exert different influences on the growth of tumor cells, which may be associated with their different effects on the glycolysis of tumor cells.

Gold nanochannels were prepared using Al2 O3 nanotubules membrane as the carrier and modified with chitosan by a classical N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N-ethyl carbodiimide ( EDC)/N-hydroxysuccinimide ( NHS ) coupling reaction. The nanochannels were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy ( FESEM) , cyclic voltammetry and AC impedance method. The Au nanochannels modified with chitosan showed a chiral environment and can be used to separate histidine enantiomer. The effects of pore size and solution pH on the separation efficiency of histidine were investigated. To increase the detection sensitivity of D-, L-histidine, Ag nanoparticles were used to enhance the surface enhanced Raman scattering ( SERS) activity. The results showed that the chitosan-modified gold nanochannels can be used to separate chiral histidine based on this unique selective nanochannel membrane. L-Histidine and D-histidine were respectively detected by SERS at wavelengths of 1000 and 1590 cm-1 . The results showed that L-histidine and D-histidine were separated well in the mixture containing 200 μL of histidine, 100 μL of colloidal Ag and 100 μL of 80 mmol/L NaCl ( pH=7 . 59 ) with a separation efficiency of 4 . 91 .

OBJECTIVE:To study the possible mechanisms of the effects of indol-2,3-dione (MW147) on experimental atherosclerosis (AS). METHODS: A total of 120 male quails were randomly divided into six groups: normal control group, model group, lovastatin (79.5 mg?kg-1) positive control group, and MW147 (20, 60, 120 mg?kg-1) groups. The normal control group was fed on normal diet, while the other 5 groups were fed on high lipid diet and treated ig with corresponding drugs for eight weeks. Then the lipid levels including TC, TG, L-DLC and H-DLC in serum and tissues, and the total superoxidedismutase (T-SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were determined. Meanwhile the tissues of aorta and liver were observed under light microscope. RESULTS: In MW147-treated groups compared with model group, the levels of TC, TG, LDL-C and MDA were decreased while the levels of HDL-C, T-SOD, GSH-Px and T-AOC in serum were increased (P

Objective To test the potency of hepatitis B vaccine in China. Methods Two inbred strains(DBA/1 and BALB/c) and two NIH closes-colonies of mice were typed in the H-2 region by microcy-totoxicity method and PCR. Groups of mice of the tested strains were immunized with the same hepatitis B vaccine, the titre of anti-HBsAg antibody was analyzed by microplate, and the ED50 was then estimated by Karder method for each strain. Results Significant differences were found between potency estimates de-rived from assays using different strains of mice. Conclusion It is likely that the variation of immune re-sponse to hepatitis B vaccine in mice is correlative with the H-2 haplotype. In some special case, the bet-erozygosity in H-2 region found in NIH stock could influence the accuracy in such testing even a reference preparation of hepatitis B vaccine was used. Base on our experiment, to select an appropriate NIH stocks with the H-2q haplotype for potency testing of hepatitis B vaccine in China.

Objective To detect the influence of fluoride on the expression TM9SF1 mRNA and Ras mRNA of osteoblasts. Methods The third generation of primary cultured osteoblasts were exposed to a series concentrations of 0,2.5,5.0, 10.0,20.0 mg/L fluoride for 10 days. The influence of different doses of fluorine on the expression of TM9SF1 mRNA and Ras mRNA of osteoblasts cultured in vitro was investigated by SYBR Green I methods. Results The osteoblasts of the control group and the 2.5 mg/L group were in the shape of long spindle, triangle or irregular polygon and had processes, and the cytoplasm was translucent, adjacent cells affixed to each other under light microscope. Those of the 20.0 mg/L group shaped as long spindle or irregular polygon, and some vacuolization and granular materials appeared in cytoplasm. The number of the cells decreased and the volume increased significantly. After exposed to fluoride for 10 days, osteoblasts of 2.5 mg/L group morphologically proliferated. There were statistical siguificances between each groups of TM9SF1 mRNA in human osteoblasts(F = 322.82, P < 0.01). The highest in the 2.5 mg/L group(9326.0 ± 115.97), the expression of TM9SF1 mRNA decreased along with the increasing dose of fluorine. There were statistical significances between 5.0, 10.0,20.0 mg/L groups(6495.0 ± 323.9, 4387.5 ± 545.2, 5962.5 ± 536.7) and control group(9221.0 ± 107.5, all P< 0.01). There was a statistical significance between each groups of Ras mRNA in human osteoblasts(F = 703.28, P < 0.01). The highest in the control group, the expression of Ras mRNA decreased along with the increasing of dose of fluorine. There were statistical significance between 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 20.0 mg/L groups(6144.5 ± 270.82,5603.5 ± 88.39,3181.0 ± 159.81,4067.5 ± 37.4) and control group(6571.0 ± 196.58). Conclusion The influence on TM9SFI mRNA and Ras mRNA expression in osteoblasts correlates with the dose of fluorine.
