RESUMEN
This study aims to investigate the compounds in the product of rice fermented with endophyte Hypoxylon sp.HD-2014 from Uncaria rhynchophylla.To be specific, normal-phase, MCI, Sephadex LH-20, and semi-preparative high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) was used to yield 12 compounds.Through spectral data analysis and comparison with previous reports, they were identified as methyl(E)-5-hydroxymethyl-6,7-dihydroxy-4,5-epoxy-octanoate-2-ene(1),(2E,6E)-nona-2,6,8-triene-4,5-diol(2), 8-O-(R)-methoxynodulisporin A(3), 3-nitropropionic acid(4), 3-nitropropionic acid methyl ester(5), 3,4-dihydroxy-phenylethanol(6), 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid(7), cis-4-hydroxyscytalone(8), 4,6,8-trihydroxy-3,4-dihydronaphthalen-1(2H)-one(9), isosclerone(10), 4H-1-benzopyran-4-one-2,3-dihydro-5-hydroxy-8-(hydroxyl-methyl)-2-methy(11), and 5-methylmellein(12), respectively.Compounds 1 and 2 were identified for the first time.In vitro cytotoxicity test indicated that compounds 1-12 had no significant inhibitory effect on A549 and HepG2 cells.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed that compound 3 showed synergistic effect with the positive control chloramphenicol.

In recent years, with the acceleration of population aging in China, the frequent occurrence of chronic diseases, and the increase in the number of sub-health groups, people began to seek ways to maintain health in line with the laws of nature. Healthy China has become a national strategy, and the Big Health industry has ushered in a golden period of development. In this context, the concept of medicine and food homology and edible medicinal substances which have guided Chinese people to pursue health since ancient times have ushered in significant and favorable development opportunities, and the industrial scale has gradually expanded. The development and utilization of edible medicinal plants have also become an important research direction. In the industrialization process of modern health care and edible medicinal products, a large number of drug residues are often abandoned due to ineffective utilization, resulting in a huge waste of resources and increasing the pressure on the ecological environment. Under the guidance of the homology theory of medicine and food, based on the recycling strategy of Chinese medicine resources, this paper analyzed the inherent common characteristics such as physical and chemical properties and biological activity of Chinese medicine residues of edible medicinal plants and put forward some suitable resource utilization strategies and suggestions in combination with the current situation of resource development and utilization of Chinese medicine residues of edible medicinal plants, in order to promote the high-value development and utilization of medicinal and edible resources, and extend the industrial chain of edible medicinal resources, thereby empowering Big Health industry and facilitating Healthy China.

To investigate the active components against diabetes, the present study isolated eight hydrolyzable tannins from the ethyl acetate extract of Punica granatum flowers by MCI, reversed-phase chromatography(ODS), Sephadex LH-20 chromatography, and HPLC, and the structures were elucidated as 1-O-galloyl-6-O-feruloyl-ß-D-glucose(1), 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-gally-ß-D-glucopyranose(2), punicafolin(3), corilagin(4), telimagrandin â (5), 1,2-di-O-galloyl-4,6-O-(S)-hexahydroxydiphenoyl-ß-D-glucose(6), heterophylliin A(7), and eugeniin(8) on the basis of spectral data and literature records. Among them, compound 1 is a new compound, and compounds 5-8 were isolated from this species for the first time. All isolated compounds were tested for inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase and DPP-â £. The results indicated that compounds 2, 3, and 5-8 showed significant inhibitory activities against α-glucosidase, while compounds 1 and 4 exhibited moderate inhibitory activities. Compounds 5, 7, and 8 showed moderate inhibitory effects on DPP-â £. In addition, the type of enzyme inhibition of compound 5 was determined.

Based on the investigation of wild medicinal plant resources in Dexing city, Jiangxi province, and the collected plant specimens, which were identified by taxonomy, two new record species of geographical distribution were found, which are Meehania zheminensis A. Takano, Pan Li & G.-H. Xia and Corydalis huangshanensis L.Q.Huang & H.S.Peng. The voucher specimens are kept in Dexing museum of traditional Chinese medicine. In this paper, the new distribution species were reported, which provides valuable information for further enriching and supplementing the species diversity of medicinal plant resources in Jiangxi province.

The plants of Chloranthaceae are widely distributed and rich in resources in our country, records of ancient herbs indicaded that various species of plants of Chloranthaceae can be used for medicinal purposes, especially the Sarcandra glabra which with the least toxicity and possessed the function of clearing heat and cooling blood, activating blood to eliminate spots and removing wind and dredging collaterals. Based on the theory of herbage and by the method of consulting the past herbal literature, we summarized and analyzed the medicinal history, distribution characteristics of herbage geography, characteristics of herbage ecology, standard collection situation and the modern toxicology research of Chloranthaceae plants. Therefore we explained the scientificity for selection of medicinal herbs of Chloranthaceae plants, and provided a theoretical and scientific basis for further research of Chloranthaceae plants.
