Fourteen chemical constituents, including 5-hydroxy-4-methoxy-1-tetralone(1), 4,8-dihydroxy-1-tetralone(2), 4,5-dihydroxy-α-tetralone(3), blumenol B(4), dehydrovomifoliol(5), megastigm-5-ene-3,9-diol(6), juglanin B(7), blumenol C(8), loliolide(9), oleracone B(10), syringarsinol(11), pinoresinol(12), methyl 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoate(13), and isovanillic acid(14), were isolated from the dichloromethane fraction of 95% methanol extract of green walnut husks by silica gel and MCI column chromatography, and Pre-HPLC. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic methods, such as NMR, MS and so on. Among them, compounds 1, 4-6, 8-13 were isolated from the green walnut husks for the first time, and compounds 4-6, 8, 10, 12, 13 were isolated from the Juglans genus for the first time. All of isolates were detected their inhibitory activities against HeLa, HGC-27 and Ht-29 cell lines by the MTT assay. The result showed that compounds 2, 3, 7, 9 and 11 exhibited inhibitory activity against the tested cell line. The IC_(50) of 7 were 26.5, 9.0, 25.4 μmol·L~(-1), respectively.

Objective To study and discuss the safety standard of flying qualification for the postoperative flying personnel with malignant tumor. Methods Related case history in past 38 years was retrospectively reviewed and sought 13 flying qualified cases out of 25 postoperative flying personnel with malignant tumor. Results Among 13 qualified cases there were 4 cases of thyroid carcinoma, 3 cases of colon carcinoma, 2 cases of bladder carcinoma and 4 cases respectively were gastric cancer, cystadenoma of pancreas, breast carcinoma and pubis osteochondrosarcoma. Those 13 cases were cured by operation and other adjuvant treatments and were diagnosed as well recovered. Since they were qualified for flying, the 3-38 years follow-up showed that they had fitted in flying for 30-2000 h. Conclusions Some flying personnel with malignant tumor would be qualified for flying by operation, proper adjuvant treatments and regular nursing, as well as the progressive physical exercise and under regular rigorous physical examination. The paper also puts forward a basic standard that suited for Chinese military flying personnel with malignant tumor.

To study the new antifungal active triterpene glycosides of sea cucumber Holothuria scabra. Triterpene glycosides from Holothuria scabra were separated and purified by silica gel chromatography, reversed-phase silica gel chromatography and RP-HPLC. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectral data and chemical evidence. Three triterpene glycosides were identified as scabraside A (1), echinoidea A (2) and holothurin A1 (3). Scabraside A (1) is a new triterpene glycoside, and compounds 2 and 3 were isolated from Holothuria scabra for the first time. They showed antifungal activities (1 < or = MIC80 < or = 16 microg mL(-1)).
