Objective:To establish UPLC characteristic spectrum of Hujiao standard decoction and the determination method for the content of piperine.Methods:15 batches of freeze-dried powder of Hujiao standard decoction were prepared according to the traditional decocting method. The range of paste yield was determined, and the UPLC characteristic spectrum of the standard decoction was established. High-resolution mass spectrometry and control products were used to identify common peaks. Based on the common peak area, the weights of each peak were compared using entropy weight method, and correlation analysis and similarity evaluation were conducted using clustering analysis and grey correlation method; a method for determining the content of piperine in Hujiao decoction pieces and freeze-dried powder of standard decoction was simultaneously established, and the transfer rate was calculated.Results:The extraction rate of 15 batches of freeze-dried powder of Hujiao standard decoction ranged from 10.4% to 16.8%, with an average of 14.0%. The content of piperine ranged from 12.2 to 30.0 mg/g, with an average of 18.5 mg/g, and the transfer rate ranged from 4.0% to 7.8%, with an average of 5.8%. Six common peaks were identified in the established characteristic spectrum and identified by high-resolution mass spectrometry and control products respectively. Peak 1 was N-trans-feruloyltyramine, peak 3 was piperine and the similarity was 0.959-1.000. Clustering analysis and grey correlation analysis showed that there was little difference between quality of Piperis Fructus and origins.Conclusion:In this study, the characteristic spectrum and content determination method of freeze-dried powder of Hujiao standard decoction are established, which can provide references for quality detection and control of Hujiao standard decoction or its derivative products.

It has been revealed that hypoxia is dynamic in hypertrophic scars; therefore, we considered that it may have different effects on hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and p53 expression. Herein, we aimed to confirm the presence of a teeterboard-like conversion between HIF-1α and p53, which is correlated with scar formation and regression. Thus, we obtained samples of normal skin and hypertrophic scars to identify the differences in HIF-1α and autophagy using immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy. In addition, we used moderate hypoxia in vitro to simulate the proliferative scar, and silenced HIF-1α or p53 gene expression or triggered overexpression to investigate the changes of HIF-1α and p53 expression, autophagy, apoptosis, and cell proliferation under this condition. HIF-1α, p53, and autophagy-related proteins were assayed using western blotting and immunofluorescence, whereas apoptosis was detected using flow cytometry analysis, and cell proliferation was detected using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) staining. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation was performed to verify the binding of HIF-1α and p53 to transcription cofactor p300. Our results demonstrated that, in scar tissue, HIF-1α expression increased in parallel with autophagosome formation. Under hypoxia, HIF-1α expression and autophagy were upregulated, whereas p53 expression and apoptosis were downregulated in vitro. HIF-1α knockdown downregulated autophagy, proliferation, and p300-bound HIF-1α, and upregulated p53 expression, apoptosis, and p300-bound p53. Meanwhile, p53 knockdown induced the opposite effects and enhanced HIF-1α, whereas p53 overexpression resulted in the same effects and reduced HIF-1α. Our results suggest a teeterboard-like conversion between HIF-1α and p53, which is linked with scar hyperplasia and regression.

Forty five patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomized to two groups: in treatment group patients received local subhypothermia and conventional therapy, in control group patients received conventional therapy only. Clinical outcome was assessed by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) on admission and at 7, 14 and 30 d after treatment. Serum neuron specific enolase (NSE), nitrogen monoxide ( NO ) , superoxide dismutase (SOD), interleukin-6 (IL-6 ) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were detected on admission and at 7,14 d after treatment The study showed that NIHSS scores of treatment group on 14, 30 d were lower than those of control group ( P < 0. 05 ). Serum NSE, NO, IL-6 and ICAM-1 levels significantly decrease; while serum SOD levels increased (P < 0. 05). In conclusion, local subhypothermia therapy can inhibit inflammatory reaction, reduce oxygen free radical formation and improve neurological function in patients with acute cerebral infarction.
