OBJECTIVE: To optimize the extraction technology of verbascoside from Cistanche tubulosa, and to provide reference for further development and comprehensive utilization of C. tubulosa. METHODS: The content of verbascoside in C. tubulosa was determined by HPLC. The determination was performed on Inertsil-ODS-3V column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-0.2% formic acid aqueous solution (40 ∶ 60, V/V) at the flow rate of 1 mL/min. The column temperature was 30 ℃, the detection wavelength was 330 nm, and the sample size was 10 μL. Using extraction rate of verbascoside as index, soaking time, ethanol concentration, liquid-solid ratio, extraction time and extraction times were investigated by single factor tests. According to the results of above tests, ethanol concentration, liquid-solid ratio and extraction time were optimized by Box-Behnken response surface methodology. The verification tests were carried out on the optimized extraction technology. RESULTS: The linear range of verbascoside was 18.65-932.4 μg/mL. The optimal extraction technology included that ethanol concentration 63%, liquid-solid ratio 8 ∶ 1 (mL/g), soaking for 2 h, extraction time 1.5 h, extracting for 2 times. The extraction rates of verbascoside in the three parallel verification tests were 78.21%, 76.95%, 79.34%, respectively. The relative errors of those to predicted value 76.76% were 1.89%, 0.25%, 3.36%. CONCLUSIONS: The optimized extraction technology of verbascoside from C. tubulosa is stable and feasible, and is suitable for the extraction of verbascoside.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the in vitro transdermal absorption properties of galangin and effects of different pene-tration enhancers on its transdermal behaviors,and provide reference for developing skin preparations using galangin as APIs in the treatment of vitiligo. METHODS:HPLC was used to determine the galangin content. Using cumulative permeation rate (Q) and the transdermal rate(J)of galangin as indexes,the effect of absorption of receiving solution [20%,40% polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400)solution and 30% ethanol solution] and rotating rate(200,300,400 r/min)on galangin in complete skin of mice were investigated,as well as the azone(1%,3%,5%)and propylene glycol(10%,20%,40%)alone or combination on its penetra-tion promotion. And the transdermal properties of galangin in complete skin,exfoliating skin,dermis skin of rats and mice were de-tected. RESULTS:The best permeability of complete skin of mice showed in 40% PEG400 solution at rotating speed of 300 r/min with 5% azone alone,J was 3.2570 μg/(cm2·h). Js of complete skin,exfoliating skin,dermis skin of mice were 2.7199,34.016, 33.874 μg/(cm2·h),respectively;and those of rats were 0.4996,9.5124,17.406 μg/(cm2·h). CONCLUSIONS:Galangin can penetrate the complete skin of mice and rats,however,the penetration quantity is far lower than exfoliating skin and dermis skin.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of butin in Vernohia anthelmintica(VW)on proliferation of human immortal ke-ratinocyte cell strain HaCaT and cell secretory factors,and explore the mechanism of butin in VW in the treatment of vitiligo. METHODS:MTT method was used to determine the survival rate of HaCaT cells cultured by 0 (blank control),0.1,0.5,1.0, 5.0,10.0 μg/mL of butin for 48 h. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine the contents of cell secretory factors as endothelin 1 (ET-1),ET-3,melanocyte stimulating hormone (MSH),stem cell factor (SCF),basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)in culture medium after HaCaT cells were cultured by 0.5,1.0,5.0 μg/mL of butin for 48 h. RESULTS:Compared with blank control,cell survival rate was increased to varying degrees after cultured by 0.1-5.0μg/mL of butin for 48 h,while decreased after cultured by 10.0 μg/mL of butin. Contents of ET-1,SCF,bFGF in culture medium were significantly increased after cultured by 0.5,1.0,5.0μg/mL of butin for 48 h(P<0.01);and contents of ET-3,MSH in culture medium were significantly increased af-ter cultured by 1.0,5.0 μg/mL of butin for 48 h(P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:Butin can promote the proliferation of HaCaT cells, the mechanism may be associated with promoting the secretion of cell secretory factors of ET-1,ET-3,MSH,SCF,bFGF.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of extracts ofLiaoxuan Kaxifu Powders (LE) on proliferation and transcription of IL-8 and ICAM-1 in HaCaT induced by TNF-α; To discuss its mechanism of action.Methods Cultured HaCaT was assigned into normal group, TNF-α group and low-, medium- and high-dose of LE group. Every group was induced by 40 ng/mL TNF-α except for normal group, and then LE groups were treated by different concentrations (8, 40, 200μg/mL) of LE for 48 h. The proliferation of HaCaT was evaluated by MTT and the apoptosis was detected by inverted fluorescence microscope. Levels of IL-8 and ICAM-1 in HaCaT were assessed by ELISA, and their mRNA expressions was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR.Results Compared with normal group, the absorbency of HaCaT and the contents and mRNA expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1 increased in TNF-α group (P<0.05,P<0.01); compared with TNF-α group, LE of all dose groups could significantly inhibit the absorbency, decrease the contents and mRNA expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1 (P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion LE is able to inhibit the proliferation of HaCaT induced by TNF-α, and the mechanism is probably related to promoting apoptosis and down-regulating the gene expressions of IL-8 and ICAM-1, and then maintaining the normal level of HaCaT.

Aim To investigate the effect of acteoside (AS)on the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex of mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease(AD).Meth-ods Kunming (KM)strain mice were assigned into control group,model group,positive control group (VitE)and acteoside group.Every group was induced by a combination of D-galactose(i.p.60mg·kg -1 · d -1 )and AlCl3 (i.g.5mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )for 60ds ex-cept for control group,then mice were treated by dif-ferent concentrations(30,60,1 20 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )of acteoside for 30ds.During the time,mice were in-duced continuously by a combination of D-galactose and AlCl3 .The learning and memory of mice were de-tected by step-down test,the activity of AChE in serum and brain of mice was measured by chemical colorime-try,the structure changes in cerebral cortex were ob-served by HE staining,and the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex was analyzed through the immunohis-tochemical staining.Results Compared with model group,acteoside could improve the learning and mem-ory abilities(P <0.05 or P <0.01 ),decrease the ac-tivity of AChE in serum and brain(P <0.05 or P <0.01 ),and improve the morphology and number of neuron in cerebral cortex(P <0.01 ).Moreover,acte-oside could significantly inhibit the expression of caspase-3 in cerebral cortex (P <0.05,P <0.01 ). Conclusion Acteoside has significantly protective effects on brain damage of mice induced by a combina-tion of D-galactose and AlCl3 , and it′s protective mechanism probably relate to inhibiting the expression of caspase-3 and maintainings the normal morphology and number of neuron in cerebral cortex.
