ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the intervention of <italic>Hedyotis diffusa</italic> （HDW） on colitis associated cancer （CAC） model mice and explore its mechanism. Method:The CAC mouse model was established by synergistic action of azoxymethane （AOM） and dextran sulfate sodium （DSS）. The intervention of HDW on CAC mice was evaluated by disease activity index （DAI）， colonic tissue morphology， pathological injury score and tumorigenesis rate. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） and multivariate statistical analysis were used to analyze the metabonomics of mice serum and to explore the mechanism of HDW intervention on CAC. Result:HDW could significantly improve the general condition of CAC mice， decrease DAI， colon gross morphological score， histopathological score and tumorigenesis rate. Compared with the normal group， 38 kinds of differential metabolites were screened in the model group， including 11 potential biomarkers， involving 11 main metabolic pathways. HDW could significantly regulate 9 kinds of differential metabolites ［niacinamide， uridine， 4-pyridoxic acid， LysoPC （18∶0）， LysoPE （0∶0/20∶0）， myo-inositol， purine， sphinganine 1-phosphate and tetradecanedioic acid］ in the model group， including 2 kinds of potential biomarkers （myo-inositol and niacinamide）， and HDW could regulate nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism and inositol phosphate metabolism. Conclusion:HDW has a therapeutic effect on CAC， which may be achieved by regulation of energy metabolism and glucose metabolism.
ABSTRACT
Steaming method is a traditional processing method for Gastrodiae Rhizoma(GR). The current studies on the steaming method's mechanism of GR are mainly focused on facilitating softening slice, destroying the β-glycosidic bond enzymes to reduce the decomposition of gastrodia glycosides (killing enzyme and protecting glycosides). The researches on the processing mechanism are still incomplete, while revealing and analyzing the active components in the body's metabolic process are important channels and new models to clarify the mechanism of traditional medicine processing. In order to provides a reference for the in-depth study of the processing mechanism of GR, we have reviewed the relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years and briefly summarized the processing, composition analysis and in vivo metabolism of GR in this study.
ABSTRACT
To prepare the intrauterine slow release silicone rubber bar made of Panax notoginseng and Rubia cordifolia, and finish its preliminary evaluation of in vitro releasing properties. The open mill method was used for plasticating of silicone rubber. The process parameters of the silicone rubber and drugs mixing were optimized by orthogonal test. The parameters of silicone rubber vulcanization was optimized by single factor test. The preliminary evaluation of in vitro release performance of the silicone rubber bar was conducted with ginsenoside Rg₁, ginsenoside Rb₁, notoginsenoside R₁, purpurin and rubimaillin as the indexes. The results showed that optimum technologic parameters for silicone rubber and drugs mixing：the roller spacing 2 mm; speed ratio 1∶1.2; front roller temperature 55-60 ℃; rear roll temperature 50-55 ℃; and mixing time 20 min. The optimum parameters for silicone rubber vulcanization：temperature 90 ℃, and time 60 min. The studies on release process in vitro revealed that the release process of silicone rubber bar was in line with the Higuchi equations. After 90 days, the cumulative release of ginsenoside Rg₁, ginsenoside Rb₁ and notoginsenoside R₁ was 46.7%, and the cumulative release of purpurin and rubimaillin was 51.9%. The preparation method can be applied to the preparation of silicone rubber bar, with slow release characteristics.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To optimize the separation and purification of the total poly phenol from Dryopteris crassirhizoma with anion- exchange resin. Methods: The rates of elution and absorption, contents of dryocrassin ABBA, and total ploy phenol were used as makers to optimize the purification conditions of total ploy phenol. Results: The extracting solution of D. crassirhizoma passed through 201×7 hydrogen-oxygen the anion-exchange resin column (column diameter-column height, 1:7) at the rate of 6 BV/h in reverse direction, then the resin column was flushed with water at the rate of 6BV/h to pH value 6-7 in forward direction. At last, the column was eluted at the rate of 6 BV/h to obtain ploy phenol with 9BV 3% salt water in 60% alcohol. The elution ratio of dryocrassin ABBA is 90.1%, and the total ploy phenol is 91.1%. The content of dryocrassin ABBA is 29.4% and the content of the total ploy phenol is 49.2%. Conclusion: The separation and purification of the total ploy phenol from D. crassirhizoma with 201 × 7 hydrogen-oxygen anion-exchange resin can achieve the satisfactory results which have wide application prospects.
