RESUMO
OBJECTIVE：To explore the potential active ingredients and mechanism of Alpinia officinarum in the treatment of gastric ulcer. METHODS ：By network pharmacology method ，the active ingredients and action targets of A. officinarum were screened through TCMSP and TCMID database retrieval [oral bioavailability （OB）≥30％ and drug like （DL）≥0.18] and literature mining. Targets of gastric ulcer were obtained in the TTD ，CTD，OMIM，PubMed，DrugBank and DisGeNet databases. Venny 2.1 software was used to screen common targets for the active ingredients of A. officinarum and gastric ulcer. Then ，the protein-protein interaction（PPI）of the common targets was obtained by STRING database ，and the PPI network was constructed and analysed by using Cytoscape 3.7.1 software. GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of the common targets were performed by using ClusterProfiler R package. Finally ，Cytoscape 3.7.1 software was used to construct and analyze the network diagram of “active ingredients-targets-pathways ”. RESULTS ：Totally 19 active ingredients of A. officinarum ，209 active ingredients targets and 195 gastric ulcer related targets ，involving 35 common targets ，were screened out. The average node degree of PPI network of common targets was 18，and the average intermediate number was 16.9. There were 11 key targets ，i.e. PTGS2，VEGFA，IL6， IL1B，CCL2，MYC，MMP9，EGFR，HIF1A，ESR1，BCL2L1. The common targets were mainly concentrated in the cell constituents such as the platelet α granule lumen and mitochondria outer membrane ，involved in the biological processes as oxidative stress ，inflammatory response regulation ，and molecular functions as protein phosphatase binding ，growth factor receptor binding. They were also enriched in the signal pathways such as PI3K/Akt，HIF-1. The network of“active ingredients- targets-pathways”showed the active ingredients such as quer- cetin，apigenin，kaempferol and galangin in A. officinarum played an anti-gastric ulcer effect by acting on PTGS2，NOS2， BCL2， IL6， VEGFA， IL1B， MMP9， BCL2L1 and other targets to jointly regulate PI 3K-Akt，HIF-1，TNF，IL-17， NF-κB and other cell proliferation，angiogenesis，and infla- 163.com mmation related pathways. CONCLUSIONS ：A. officinarum shows anti-gastric ulcer effect with the characteristics of multi-ingredient ，multi-target and multi-path.
RESUMO
Objective To prepare a new bioadhesive material-chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates from chitosan,and analysed the structure moreover.Methods Preparing chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates with a new synthesis method under catalytic reaction by NHS,and the contents of thiol groups in the conjugates were determined.Furthermore,elemental analysis and the IR spectrum of the polymer were determined.Results The content of thiol groups in the chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates was 1034?mol?g~(-1),and the structure was elucidated.Conclusion The new synthesis method was feasible,and the structure can be elucidated by IR spectrum.
RESUMO
Objective Research on the relation between the content of thiol group in chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates and in vitro adhesion. Methods Prepared chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates with different content of thiol group,and determined the swelling behavior,instant detachment force between test disc and mucosa,recorded the maximum detachment force(MDF),and calculated the total work of adhesion(TWA)of these samples.Results The relation between the content of thiol groups and in vitro adhesion of the chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates was positive correlation, the adhesion of the polymer increased along with the content of thiol group,but the rate decreased.Conclusion The adhesion of chitosan-thioglycolic acid conjugates with higher content of thiol gyoup was far more stronger than chitosan.
