astaxanthin is an effective antioxidant and natural pigment which has wide application. Phaffia rhodozyma is a good source of astaxantin, but wild strain has limited use in industry because of low production level of astaxanthin. Several mutants of Phaffia rhodozyma were obtained by exerting mutagen N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. The growth curve suggested that pigments were mainly produced in the middle and latter periods of log phase. The pigments were extracted from Phaffia rhodozyma and analysed by esterification, thin layer chromatography and absorption spectrometry. It was proved that astaxanthin, astaxanthin diester and β-carotene were the major components of the pigments produced by Phaffia rhodozyma. We also studied the pigments producing phase of Phaffia rhodozyma. and founded that astaxanthin was stable to light under butylatedhydroxytoluene coexistance.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of biopolysaccharide colloidal solution (Shutaishu) in the prevention of intestinal adhesion after abdominal surgery.Methods:A total of 100 patients scheduled to undergo abdominal surgery in Quzhou Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February to October in 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 50 patients in each group. Before closing the abdomen after surgery, abdominal cavity and wound were flashed with Shutaishu and 0.9% sodium chloride injection in the observation and control groups, respectively. The recovery of gastrointestinal function, intestinal adhesion, abdominal pain and the incidence of complications were compared between the observation and control groups.Results:The time to first regular bowel sound [(28.81 ± 5.56) h], time to first passage of flatus [(36.34 ± 6.24) h], time to first defecation [(41.65 ± 8.77) h], time taken for walking [(3.78 ± 0.64) d] in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(32.75 ± 5.15) h, (41.51 ± 6.84) h, (48.05 ± 9.81) h, (4.27 ± 0.69) d, t = 3.68, 3.95, 3.89, 3.68, all P < 0.001]. At 5 and 30 days after surgery, the incidence of intestinal adhesion in the observation group [10.0% (5/50), 12.0% (6/50)] was significantly lower than that in the control group [26.0% (13/50), 30.0% (15/50), χ2 = 4.34, 4.88, both P < 0.05]. The total incidence of postoperative complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [26.0% (13/50) vs. 54.0% (27/50), χ2 = 8.17, P < 0.05]. With time, visual analogue scale score was significantly decreased in both groups ( t = 3.51, 6.18, both P < 0.05). At 1, 3 and 5 days after surgery, visual analogue scale score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 4.07, 4.95 and 8.02, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Biopolysaccharide colloidal solution is of high clinical value in the prevention of intestinal adhesion after abdominal surgery because it can promote the recovery of gastrointestinal function and early functional exercise, and has no obvious adverse reactions and complications.

Objective To investigate the effect of neuropeptide Y (NPY) on the osteoblastic differentiation of murine MC3T3-E1 cells and its mechanism related to the Wnt signaling pathway.Methods The murine MC3T3-E1 cells were divided into 4 groups according to the stimulators added:phosphate buffered saline (PBS) (control) and different concentrations of NPY (10-8 mol/L,10-10 mol/L and 10-12 mol/L).The cellular proliferation was detected with MTT assay after 1,3,5,7 and 9 days.The cells were identified with cell immunochemistry and Western Blot to find out the most effective concentration of NPY at different time points under osteoblastic condition.The cells were then divided into 4 groups:PBS,NPY,NPY + NPY receptor antagonist,and NPY + DKK1.Western blot was used to determine the expression of β3-catenin and p-GSK-3β in each group.Nuclear signaling activity of β3-catenin was observed using immunofluorescence staining.Results NPY significantly improved the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells at 7 and 9 days (P <0.05).NPY (10s mol/L and 10-10 mol/L) groups and NPY (10-10 mol/L and 10-12 mol/L) groups significantly improved the ALP activity at 4 and 14 days respectively (P < 0.05).At 4 days,the expression of ALP protein was significantly decreased in the NPY + DKK1 group and the NPY + NPY receptor antagonist group compared with that in the NPY group (P < 0.05).Although the expression levels of [β-catenin and p-GSK-3β protein were uninfluenced in either case,NPY significantly stimulated the nuclear signaling activity of β3-catenin.Conclusions NPY may significantly increase the expression of ALP protein in MC3T3-E1 ceils during osteoblastic differentiation.This effect might be mediated through the canonical Wnt signaling pathway.
