Objective To investigate the effects of Furong-Tongmai capsules on the expressions of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in the sciatic nerve in diabetic rats.Methods A total of 50 rats were randomly divided into the normal control group,model group,and low-,medium-,and high-dose of Furong-Tongmai groups,10 rats in each group.Diabetes mellitus in rats were induced by intraperitoneal streptozotocin injection (60 mg/kg).The rats in the low-,medium-,and high-dose of Furong-Tongmai groups were intragastric administrated with Furong-Tongmai suspension 0.7,1.4 and 2.8 g/kg daily for 8 weeks,respectively.The rots in the normal control group and model group were intragastric administrated with equal-volume normal saline daily for 8 weeks.The expression levels of IL-1 and TNF-α in the sciatic nerve were detected with immunohistochemistry staining.Results The expression levels of IL-1 (1.43％ ± 0.17％ vs.0.21％ ± 0.09％;P＜0.05) and TNF-α (1.98％ ± 0.12％ vs.0.35％ ± 0.03％;P＜0.05) in the model group were significantly increased than those in the normal control group.The expression levels of IL-1 (0.54％ ± 0.14％,0.51％ ± 0.13％ vs.1.43％ ± 0.17％;all P＜0.05) and TNF-α (0.57％ ± 0.17％,0.49％ ± 0.15％ vs.1.98％ ± 0.12％;all P＜0.05) in the medium-,and high-dose of Furong-Tongmai groups were significantly decreased than those in the model group and low-dose of Furong-Tongmai group (1.08％ ± 0.18％ in IL-1,1.11％ ± 0.09％ in TNF-α;all P＜0.05).Conclusion Furong-Tongmai capsules can reduce the expressions of IL-1 and TNF-α in sciatic nerve in diabetic rats.

This study was aimed to optimize the extraction process of double-marker components for Arctium lappa L. The central composite design and response surface methodology was used. According to 3 main factors, the extraction rates of arctiin and arctigenin was used as evaluation indexes. Multiple linear regression and two-order polynomial equation were used. The binomial fitting model was performed in the optimization of arctiin and arctigenin extraction technology. The results showed that the indentified optimized extraction technology of arctiin and arctigenin was 70% ethanol, 24-fold, ultrasonic solvent extraction for 15 minutes. It was concluded that this technology was able to extract large amount of arctiin and arctigenin, which provided experiment evidences for arctiin and arctigenin preparation. It also provided references for the development and utilization of arctiin and arctigenin.
