RESUMEN
SAC genes have been identified to play a variety of biological functions and responses to various stresses. Previously, SAC genes have been recognized in animals and Arabidopsis. For the very first time, we identified 157 SAC genes in eight cotton species including three diploids and five tetraploids with 23 SAC members in G. hirsutum. Evolutionary analysis classified all cotton SAC gene family members into five distinct groups. Cotton SAC genes showed conserved sequence logos and WGD or segmental duplication. Multiple synteny and collinearity analyses revealed gene family expansion and purifying selection pressure during evolution. G. hirsutum SAC genes showed uneven chromosomal distribution, multiple exons/introns, conserved protein motifs, and various growth and stress-related cis-elements. Expression pattern analysis revealed three GhSAC genes (GhSAC3, GhSAC14, and GhSAC20) preferentially expressed in flower, five genes (GhSAC1, GhSAC6, GhSAC9, GhSAC13, and GhSAC18) preferentially expressed in ovule and one gene (GhSAC5) preferentially expressed in fiber. Similarly, abiotic stress treatment verified that GhSAC5 was downregulated under all stresses, GhSAC6 and GhSAC9 were upregulated under NaCl treatment, and GhSAC9 and GhSAC18 were upregulated under PEG and heat treatment respectively. Overall, this study identified key genes related to flower, ovule, and fiber development and important genetic material for breeding cotton under abiotic stress conditions.

OBJE CTIVE To prepare and characterize evodiamine phospholipid complex self-microemulsifying drug delivery system（EVO-PC-SMEDDS），and to investigate its gastric mucosal permeability. METHODS EVO-PC-SMEDDS was prepared ， and particle size ，polydispersity（PDI）and Zeta potential were tested ，and microscopic observation was carried out. The stability of EVO-PC-SMEDDS in simulated gastric liquid with different pH （1.2，2.0，4.0，7.0）was investigated. The entrapment efficiency and drug-loading amount of the preparation were determined ，and the in vitro release was investigated. The gastric mucosal permeability of EVO-PC-SMEDDS was studied by combining rat gastric mucosal tissue and Ussing Chamber technology. RESULTS The particle size of EVO-PC-SMEDDS was （53.63±1.51）nm，PDI and Zeta potential were 0.217±0.017 and （－12.20±0.15）mV，entrapment efficiency was （95.25±0.97）％ and drug-loading amount was （19.30±1.21）mg/g. EVO-PC- SMEDDS exhibited a uniformly dispersed round spherical shape under transmission electron microscope. Stability experiments showed that EVO-PC-SMEDDS exhibited no significant change in particle size ，PDI and Zeta potential under the simulated gastric fluid with different pH and showed excellent stability. Results of in vitro release test showed that compared with evodiamine （EVO），in vitro accumulative release of EVO-PC-SMEDDS were enhanced 6.83-fold，which was in line with the first-order kinetic release model. Results of gastric mucosal permeability showed that gastric mucosal permeation transport ，permeation rate ， permeation flux and area under curve of cumulative permeability of EVO-PC-SMEDDS were higher than those of EVO ， respectively. CONCLUSIONS EVO-PC-SMEDDS is prepared N successfully and shows good stability. It could significantly improve the release behavior and gastric mucosal permeability of EVO.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE：To optimize the form ulation of Zuojin pectin c apsules，and to prepare modern Zuojin pectin capsules with protective effects against gastric ulcers. METHODS ：The formulation of Zuojin pectin capsules was optimized with orthogonal test with the contents of pectin ，soluble starch and dextrin as factors ，using formability ，moisture absorption and flow ability as indicators. Zuojin pectin capsule was prepared by wet granulation filling method with Zuojin extract powder as raw material. The contents of palmatine hydrochloride ，berberine hydrochloride ，evodiamine and rutaecarpin were evaluated by HPLC. Basket method was used to investigate the release behavior of the capsule in 0.1 mol/L HCl solution. The gastric ulcer model of rats was established by intragastric administration of 75％ ethanol. Gastric ulcer index ，the inhibition rate of gastric ulcer and the pathological sections were used as indexes to investigate the protective effect of Zuojin pectin capsules （the doses were 54，108， 216 mg/kg）on gastric ulcer. RESULTS ：The optimal formulation of Zuojin pectin capsules included 45％ pectin，12％ soluble starch，27％ dextrin and 1％ xylitol. Results of in vitro drug ， release showed that palmatine hydrochloride and berberine， hydrochloride in Zuojin pectin capsules released 53.76％ and No.54.82％ respectively within 1 h，completely released at about 8 h， and conformed to the zero-order release behavior. 2492109374@qq.com Different doses of Zuojin pectin capsule could improve the ulcer injury of gastric tissue in gastric ulcer model rats to different extent ，and significantly reduced the gastric ulcer index（P＜0.01），significantly increased the inhibition rate of gastric ulcer and the percentage of positive expression area of Schiff ’s iodate staining （P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS ：Zuojin pectin capsule with protective effect on gastric ulcer and certain sustained- release effect is successfully prepared.
