High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to determine the content of three major components in Citri Reticulatae Semen(CRS), including limonin, nomilin, and obacunone. The chromaticity of the CRS sample during salt processing and stir-frying was measured using a color difference meter. Next, the relationship between the color and content of the salt-processed CRS sample was investigated through correlation analysis. By integrating the oil bath technique for processing simulation with HPLC, the changes in the relative content of nomilin and its transformation products were analyzed, with its structural transformation pattern during processing identified. Additionally, RAW264.7 cells were induced with lipopolysaccharides(LPSs) to establish an inflammatory model, and the anti-inflammatory activity of nomilin and its transformation product, namely obacunone was evaluated. The results indicated that as processing progressed, E~*ab and L~* values showed a downward trend; a~* values exhibited a slow increase over a certain period, followed by no significant changes, and b~* values remained stable with no significant changes over a certain period and then started to decrease. The limonin content remained barely unchanged; the nomilin content decreased, and the obacunone increased significantly. The changing trends in content and color parameters during salt-processing and stir-frying were basically consistent. The content of nomilin and obacunone was significantly correlated with the colorimetric values(L~*, a~*, b~*, and E~*ab), while limonin content showed no significant correlation with these values. By analyzing HPLC patterns of nomylin at different heating temperatures and time, it was found that under conditions of 200-250 ℃ for heating of 5-60 min, the content of nomilin significantly decreased, while the obacunone content increased pronouncedly. The in vitro anti-inflammatory activity results indicated that compared to the model group, the group with a high concentration of nomilin and the groups with varying concentrations of obacunone showed significantly reduced release of nitric oxide(NO)(P<0.01). When both were at the same concentration, obacunone showed better performance in inhibiting NO release. In this study, the obvious correlation between the color and content of major components during the processing of CRS samples was identified, and the dynamic patterns of quality change in CRS samples during processing were revealed. Additionally, the study revealed and confirmed the transformation of nomilin into obacunone during processing, with the in vitro anti-inflammatory activity of obacunone significantly greater than that of nomilin. These findings provided a scientific basis for CRS processing optimization, tablet quality control, and its clinical application.

Objective:To establish an efficient gene editing method of HLA-Ⅰ gene to prepare HLA-Ⅰ universal hematopoietic stem cells.Methods:The easyedit small guide RNA(sgRNA)was designed according to the sequences of β2 microglobulin gene and synthesized by GenScript company. RNP complexes were formed by NLS-Cas9-NLS nuclease and Easyedit sgRNA according to different molar ratios (1∶1～1∶4 ).Control group and four transfection groups were performed respectively.HEK-293 cells and CD34+hematopoietic stem cells were nucleotransfected with RNP complex by Lonza 4D Nucleofector system.The expression of HLA-Ⅰ on the surface of HEK-293 cells was detected by flow cytometry after transfection for 72 hours,the cleavage effect was determined by T7E1 enzyme digestion reaction and the presence of nested peak in the DNA sequence was identified by direct sequencing.Results:The transfection groups had different levels of HLA-Ⅰ negative expression cell populations by flow cytometry after transient transfection of HEK-293 cells and CD34+hematopoietic stem cells with different molar concentrations of RNP complex for 72 hours. There were nested peaks proximal to the sgRNA PAM sequence in the transfection groups by direct DNA sequencing,indicating that sgRNA had obvious editing effect.In the transfection of HEK-293 cells,the highest proportion of HLA-Ⅰ negative expression cells was (87.69±0.83)％ when the molar ratio of NLS-Cas9-NLS nuclease to Easyedit sgRNA was 1∶4.The cutting efficiency of T7E1 was the highest up to (38±2.0)％ when the molar ratio was 1∶3.In the transfection of CD34+hematopoietic stem cells,the proportion of HLA-Ⅰ negative expression cells was (91.56±3. 39)％when the molar ratio was 1∶2,and the cutting efficiency of T7E1 was (64±8.45)％when the molar ratio was 1∶1 .Conclusion:This study provides an efficient gene editing method for classical HLA-Ⅰ molecules,which can effectively silence the expression of class HLA-Ⅰ molecules on the cell surface,and is suitable for stem cell system with difficult transfection.

Objective To explore olanzapine effect on the cognitive function and neuronal damage of aged schizophrenic rats based on the PI3 K/Akt signaling pathway. Methods Ten-week-old SD rats were randomly divided into a blank control group（n=12） and a modeling intervention group（n=48）. The modeling group were injected with didroxapine maleate [MK-801,0.2 mg/（kg·d）] for 14 days. And the model was evaluated by general behavioral studies to determine the success of model building. The model rats were randomly divided into model group and low, medium, and high dose olanzapine groups [10, 20, 40 mg/（kg·d）], each with 12 rats. The control group and model group were given distilled water; the low, medium, and high dose olanzapine groups were given olanzapine for 21 days. The stereotyped lines were scored by the standard of Sams Dodd and Hoffman, the cognitive evaluation of the rats was performed by the Morris water maze, and the levels of interleukin-6（IL-6） and tumor necrosis factor-α（TNF-α） in the serum were determined by ELISA. The activities of dihydrokaempferol（Ach） and acetyl cholinesterase（AchE）in brain tissue were detected by acetylcholinesterase activity assay kit. Rat brain tissue PI3 K, Akt, mammalian target of rapamycin（mTOR） mRNA expression levels were detected by Real-time PCR. Results Compared with the model group, the stereotyped behavior and ataxia scores, escape latency, number of crossing platforms, serum levels of IL-6, TNF-α, AchE, phosphorylated PI3 K（p-PI3 K）, phosphorylated Akt（p-Akt） protein expression decreased（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）, while brain tissue Ach, PI3 K, mTOR and phosphorylated mTOR（p-mTOR） protein content increased（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01） in the low, medium and high dose olanzapine groups. The content of Akt was increased in the low-dose group. Compared with the model group, Akt and mTOR mRNA in the brain tissue of rats in the low, medium, and high-dose alanzapine groups expression levels were down-regulated（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. PI3 K mRNA in the brain tissue of rats in the low, medium, and high-dose alanzapine groups expression levels were down-regulated（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Conclusion Olanzapine can reduce stereotyped behavior and ataxia scores, escape latency, number of crossing platforms, IL-6, TNF-α, AchE and increase Ach content and regulate the PI3 K/Akt signaling pathway to relieve the schizophrenia.
