Objective:To analyse the composition of Astragali Radix and its honey-processed products through a combination of UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and molecular network; To compare the changes in the main components of Astragali Radix before and after honey-frying.Methods:The aqueous extracts of Astragali Radix before and after honey-frying were prepared, and the compositions were detected by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS, analyzed and identified by the Global Natural Products Molecular Network Analysis Platform (GNPS). The generated molecular networks were visualized and analyzed using Cytoscape 3.9.1 software. The compounds were identified by Masslynx 4.2 software based on the secondary fragmentation information of the compounds, and the changes in the content of the components before and after the processing of Astragali Radix were analysed.Results:47 flavonoids and 34 triterpenoid saponins were presumably identified from Astragali Radix and its honey-frying products using the above analytical methods, with about 87% of the flavonoids and about 82% of the saponins decreasing in content after honey-frying.Conclusions:The compositional changes of Astragali Radix before and after honey-frying are rapidly resolved and visualised by liquid-quantity coupling combined with molecular network. It is found that some of the flavonoids and saponins components of Astragali Radix underwent hydrolysis after honey-frying and it may be the material change basis for processing efficiency enhancement.

Objective@#To establish a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) complicated with atherosclerosis(AS).@*Methods@#Sixteen female SD rats were selected and randomly divided into control group and model group, with 8 rats in each group.The rats in the control group were given routine rearing.The rats in the model group were subcutaneously given dihydrotestosterone(DHT) in neck and fed with high fat diet for a long term.The changes of food intake (FI), body weight(BW), testosterone (T), estrogen (E2), luteinizing hormone (LH), total cholesterol (TC), blood glucose (BG) and insulin (INS) were observed in the two groups.@*Results@#The levels of FI, T, E2, LH between the control group and model group had no obvious change[(86.13±7.83)g/r vs.(96.25±10.66)g/r, t=2.113, P=0.563, (10.79±1.74)mg/L vs.(11.47±1.89)mg/L, t=1.785, P=0.087; (36.58±2.57)ng/L vs.(38.64±1.78)ng/L, t=2.697, P=0.068; (15.47±1.96)IU/L vs.(16.01±0.80)IU/L, t=1.570, P=0.614]. The levels of BW, TC, DHT, INS in the model group were significantly higher than those in the control group[(234.54±17.14)g vs.(192.67±16.47)g, t=7.930, P<0.000; (2.47±0.13)mmol/L vs.(2.02±0.15)mmol/L, t=6.475, P<0.000; (139.75±12.12)ng/L vs.(55.63±7.80)ng/L, t=8.697, P<0.000; (283.25±33.47)pg/mg vs.(162.12±15.51)pg/mg, t=9.289, P<0.000]. Tube wall was markedly thickened in the model group after being given high fat feed for 12 weeks, and intimal wall was significantly thickened after 16 weeks, and endotheliocyte injury, deep collagen fiber, monocyte adhesion, visible atherosclerotic plaques were observed in the model grouop.@*Conclusion@#DHT-induced PCOS rat model by high fat feed reproduces the human typical clinical symptoms and pathological characteristics, it can provide a relatively simple and feasible rat model for further study of the mechanism of PCOS complicated with AS.
摘要
Scales are important tools to measure and evaluate the severity degree and treatment effect of anxiety, but objective index with high quality is insufficient. Clinical researches of anxiety treated with acupuncture and moxibustion from the domestic and the oversea in recent 10 years are retrieved. The applications of all kinds of scales for anxiety treated with acupuncture and moxibustion in clinical research are analyzed, and problems needed to be paid attention to about scales are further explored. The establishment of effect evaluation system combining clinical symptoms with the quality of life is raised, so as to provide reference to further research.
