AIM: To investigate the chemical and bioactive constituents from the stems and leaves of Micromelum integerrimum. METHOD: The chemical constituents were isolated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, and HPLC. Their structures were mainly elucidated on the basis of extensive 1D- and 2D-NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Their cytotoxicity and antimicrobial activities were tested by the SRB and turbidimetric methods, respectively. RESULTS: Two new phenylpropanoids and two known coumarins were obtained, and their structures were identified as microintegerrin A (1), microintegerrin B (2), scopoletin (3), and scopolin (4). All of the compounds were tested for their cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines (HeLa, A549, and BGC-823) and for antimicrobial activity against the fungus Candida albicans and the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. CONCLUSION Two new phenylpropanoids 1 and 2 were isolated and identified from the stems and leaves of M. intgerrimum. None of the compounds showed cytotoxic or antimicrobial activity at the tested concentration of 20 μg·mL(-1).

Objective To characterize genotypic resistance within HBV RT region in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with nucleos(t) ide analogue (NA) treatment.Methods Serum samples of 229 CHB patients with NA treatment were obtained.Full-length HBV RT sequences were amplified,sequenced and analyzed,on the following NA resistant (NAr) mutations belonging to different NAr pathways.Results Among 229 HBV isolates,14.41％ (33/229) and 85.59％ (196/229) were genotype B and C,respectively;and the patients with HBV genotype C may be more susceptible to develope resistant mutations than patients with HBV genotype B (x2 =2.95,P ＜ 0.05).NAr mutations were detected in 63 CHB patients.Mutations were not found at rtI169,rtT184,rtA194 or rtS202.RtM204 mutations were detected at the highest frequency among 63 mutants (40/63,63.49％) and found to display 11 combination mutation patterns,in which rtM204I were associated with rtL80I/V and rtL180M,and rtM204V were associated with rtL180M,respectively.Conclusions There are complicated mutation patterns in the HBV RT region for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with nucleos(t) ide analogue (NA) treatment.RtM204V/I mutation was the highest.

Sesame (Sesamum indicum L. ) belongs to Pedaliaceae, and its dry flowers have been used to cure alopecia, frostbite and constipation as a Traditional Chinese Medicine. Interestingly, the Flos Sesamum indicum L. was usually used to cure verruca vulgaris and verruca plana in folk of China, and showed a pleasant result. Previous chemical investigations of this plant mainly concentrate on its seeds, showed the presence of proteins and fat oils, herein we make a systematic chemical research on the dry flowers of this plant.
