Objective To conduct comparative study on the analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects as well as the acute toxicity of yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine isolated from the processed products of Aconiti Knsnezoffii Radix.Methods The methods of hot plate test and writhing test were used to evaluate the analgesic effect. Anti-inflammation action was observed by the models of auricle swelling caused by dimethylbenzene. LD50 was determined by the method of Bliss.Results Yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine have analgesia effect on the pain caused by hot-plate, but there were no statistically significant difference. The pain caused by acetic acid had obvious analgesic action. High and low dose of yunaconitine could significantly reduce the number of mice body torsion and extend the incubation period of pain in mice. The effect of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine was remarkable only in the high dose. Compared with solvent group, there were little differences in inhibiting effect of auricle swelling caused by dimethylbenzene, and anti-inflammatory action was not exact. The poisonousness of yunaconitine was nearly 20 times of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine.Conclusion Yunaconitine and 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine may be the analgesic medicine for peripheral analgesic effect. The poisonousness of 8-deacetyl-yunaconitine is less than yunaconitine, the effect is remarkable to the pain caused by acetic acid, and the security is high.

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of Wubao capsule on airway inflammation in asthmatic model mice by regulating upstream and downstream cytokines of type Ⅱ innate lymphoid cells （ILC2s）. METHODS Totally 40 female BABL/c mice were randomly divided into normal group， model group， positive control group （dexamethasone 1 mg/kg）， Wubao capsule low-dose and high-dose groups （0.5， 1 g/kg）， with 8 mice in each group. Asthma models were induced by ovalbumin （OVA） sensitization and nebulization. Each group was given normal saline or drug intragastrically for 7 consecutive days. The contents of IgE and OVA-IgE in serum， the contents of interleukin 5 （IL-5）， IL-9， IL-13， IL-25， IL-33， thymic stromal lymphopoietin （TSLP） and mucin 5AC （MUC5AC） in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid （BALF） were determined by ELISA. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissues in mice. PAS staining was used to observe the changes of goblet cell proliferation in each group. The number of ILC2s in lung tissue was determined by flow cytometry （except for Wubao capsule low-dose group）. RESULTS Compared with model group， the contents of IgE and OVA-IgE in serum and the contents of IL-5， IL-9， IL-13， IL-25， IL-33， TSLP and MUC5AC in BALF were significantly reduced in Wubao capsule high-dose and low-dose groups （P＜0.01）. The infiltration of inflammatory cells and the thickening of basement membrane in lung tissue was alleviated to varying degrees， and the proliferation of goblet cells was inhibited； the number of ILC2s in lung tissues of mice in Wubao capsule high-dose group was significantly reduced （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Wubao capsule could effectively reduce the number of ILC2s in lung tissue， the contents of upstream and downstream cytokines of ILC2s in BALF of asthmatic model mice， so as to inhibit the airway inflammation and improve asthma.
