Objective To determine the contents of four effective constituents in Euphorbiae Semen decoction;To provide evidence for Euphorbiae Semen decoction into clinical application. Methods Established quantitative analysis multi-components by single marker method was used to determine the contents of diterpenoids constituents, such as euphorbia storoid, euphorbia factor L2, and euphorbia factor L3. HPLC method was used to determine the contents of aesculetin. Results Contents of euphorbia storoid, euphorbia factor L2, and euphorbia factor L3 in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction were 0.015 9%, 0.005 9% and 0.024 1%, respectively. However, the contents of the above three constituents could not be detected in whole Euphorbiae Semen decoction. The content of aesculetin (0.693 6%) in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction was more than that in whole Euphorbiae Semen decoction (0.288 2%). Conclusion Decoction digestion effect of diterpenoids constituents in Euphorbiae Semen decoction is not good. Decocting with water is not suitable for the clinical application of Euphorbiae Semen for purgation and diuresis. Aesculetin in smashed Euphorbiae Semen decoction has good decoction digestion effect, in which clinical use for antisepsis and anti-inflammation is effective.

Objective To evaluate the heritability explanation degree of schizophrenia by all known susceptibility variants in schizophrenia. Methods The GWAS catalog of National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) was queried to retrieve all the susceptible gene variations of schizophrenia. Sixty-two variants with risk allele frequency and odds ratio (OR ) were selected from 347 susceptible gene variants of schizophrenia. The heritability explanation degree of each susceptibility variants was calculated using the multifactorial liability threshold model. Results The total heritabili-ty explanation degree of schizophrenia by 62 known susceptible variants was 25.66%. In contrast, 74.34%of heritability, which could not be explained by known susceptibility variants, were then defined as the missing heritability of schizophre-nia. Conclusions The results demonstrate that the heritability explanation degree of schizophrenia by all known suscepti-bility variants in schizophrenia is low, indicating that there may be many unknown schizophrenia molecular genetic mech-anisms need to be further clarified.

BACKGROUND: The water molecules and biological macromolecules in human tissue may combine to form hydrate composite. Different types of macromolecules show different approaches to combine with water molecules. OBJECTIVE: To discuss the basic form of water molecules combined with biological macromolecules. METHODS: The theoretical hypothesis of texture composite hydration system was proposed. The relevant literatures were retrieved through the computer to discuss these issues. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: According to the role of water in the hydrate composite, the composite ways can be divided into the following 4 groups. ①Surfaca composite: Hydrated membrane layers can form on the surface of globular protein or DNA molecules. The hydrated membrane layer shows that the speed of water molecular and hydrate density were reduced gradually from surface to inside. The hydrated layer makes the shape and physical state of the macromolecules stabilized, and it plays important role in forming of TCHS.②Swelling composite: As a result of the strong hydration of glycosaminoglycans, the hydrated proteoglycan often swells and shows high viscosity and hydrogel character. The hydrated proteoglycan play some mechanicalroles in connective tissue. For example, it can make the cartilage have a strong deformation-resistibility.③Hydrophobic composite: Hydr0phobic effect drives structural rearrangement, including the formation of bilayers (Bio-membrane). This hydrophilic-hydrophobic-hydrophilic "sandwich" structure is conducive to the self-stability in mechanics, combination with membrane protein and transmembrane transport. ④Slit composite: A lot of slit spaces with nano scale were existing inside and outside of the cells. Aqueous solution in the slit spaces shows some abnormal characters such as higher viscosity and lower ice point, because of the rearrangement of water molecules. Slit composite and surface composite have some universality, and it can be regarded the former as a special case of the latter. The classification way mentioned above has not any absolute connotations. However, the rational utilization of these hydration composite ways will be conducive to research the theory on textural composite hydrate system.

The hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) gene mutation is responsible for gouty arthritis, kidney stone, and Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome (LNS). It has been reported that the expression of HGPRT is decreased or even absent in these diseases. Rabbits are an ideal model for studying the pathology of these diseases. Therefore, the development of an HGPRT-knockdown rabbit model will be highly beneficial m such studies. Stable HGPRT-knoekdown transgenie fibroblast lines were generated by transfecting rabbit fibroblasts with RNA interference (RNAi) plasmids. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyses indicated that the average positive rate was 83.3%. The mRNA and protein levels of HGPRT in the transgenic fibroblast lines were significantly lower than that in the control. Transgenic rabbit blastocysts were derived after performing nuclear transfer. The results show that RNAi can be used to stably knock down expression of the HGPRT in rabbit fibroblasts and further improvements in related technologies will facilitate the use of this method for the generation of HGPRT-knockdown rabbits.
