OBJECTIVE To control the quality of Inula salsoloides from different producing areas in Xinjiang. METHODS The macroscopic and microscopic identification of medicinal materials was performed using conventional morphological and microscopic observation methods. Thin-layer chromatography（TLC）was applied for the qualitative identification of chlorogenic acid in the medicinal materials. In ac cordance with the General Principles in Volume Ⅳ of the 2025 edition of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia ， the contents of water， total ash， acid-insoluble ash， and extractives of the samples were determined. High-performance liquid chromatography was used to measure the contents of chlorogenic acid， isoquercitrin， and quercetin. Taking water， total ash， acid-insoluble ash， extractives， and the contents of chlorogenic acid， isoquercitrin， and quercetin as evaluation indices， the entropy weight-TOPSIS method was adopted to comprehensively evaluate the quality of 18 batches of samples. RESULTS I. salsoloides from Xinjiang exhibited distinct macroscopic and microscopic characteristics， and the qualitative TLC identification results for chlorogenic acid were clear and reliable. The water content ranged from 6.20% to 7.23%， the total ash content from 12.27% to 15.80%， the acid-insoluble ash content from 1.89% to 2.57%， and the extractive contents from 21.24% to 28.09%. The contents of chlorogenic acid， isoquercitrin， and quercetin were 0.198 5 to 2.335 0 mg/g， 0.014 5 to 0.402 8 mg/g， and 0.016 5 to 0.578 7 mg/g， respectively. The comprehensive closeness degrees of 18 batches of samples were 0.106 to 0.673. CONCLUSIONS The established quality control method is stable and reliable， which can be applied to the quality control of I.salsoloides ， there are significant differences in the quality of medicinal materials from different producing areas.

Objective Establishment of quality standards for Xiaoyan Muniziqi granules(XYMNZQG).Methods The qualitative identification of Cuscutae Semen and Dracocephalum moldavia in the preparation was carried out,and the content of hyperin and tilianin in the preparation was determined.Results The qualitative results of Cuscutae Semen and Dracocephalum moldavia in XYMNZQG were clear.The linear ranges of hyperin and tilianin were 11.932 2-95.457 6 μg·mL-1(r=0.999 9)and 25.281 78-202.254 24 μg·mL-1(r=0.999 4),respectively.The average recoveries were 99.11%and 99.52%,with RSDs of 0.47%and 0.72%(n=6).Conclusion The established quality control method is simple,reliable,and specific,and can be used for the quality control of XYMNZQG.

To investigate the role of chamagogic polysaccharides (polysaccharides of Brassica rapa L., BRPs) against doxorubicin (DOX) cardiotoxicity and related mechanisms, H9c2 cells were selected for the study, and the effects of BRPs on DOX induced damage in H9c2 cells were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8); H9c2 cells were divided into the control group, the model group, and the drug group (0.5-3 mg·mL^-1); the control group was cultured under normal conditions, and the remaining groups were induced for 24 h by 1 μmol·L^-1 DOX after treatment. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry; the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured in each group; intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) were detected. Western blot was used to detect the expression of proteins related to the apoptosis and transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) pathway. Compared with the control group, DOX-induced H9c2 cell injury was characterized by decreased cell viability, increased apoptosis, elevated LDH and MDA levels, decreased SOD activity, significantly increased ROS levels, and significantly decreased MMP; the level of B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) protein decreased, and the level of Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) increased significantly; In the model group, the expression levels of Nrf-2, HO-1, quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) were reduced, and the expression levels of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase were significantly increased, Moreover, BRPs (0.5-3 mg·mL^-1) increased the protein expression levels of Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1, and decreased the levels of Keap1 and phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. In summary, the ability of BRPs to protect H9c2 cells and inhibit apoptosis may be related to their regulation of the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway to antagonize oxidative stress.
