ABSTRACT
Objective To clarify evaluation methodology of the accuracy of differential diagnosis of meningioma and glioma,taking magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) into account.Methods According to the unified standard of design,114 cases were selected,which were diagnosed by postoperative pathological in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from March 2010 to October 2012.On the basis of hospital routine inspection,all patients needed MRI scan,enhancement scan,VEGF,ALP and LDH,with pathological diagnosis of glioma or meningioma.Using ROC curve analysis which took VEGF,T2WI into account,the accuracy of differential diagnosis could be evaluated.Results The results showed that the differential diagnosis accuracy were high relatively,the area under the ROC curve was 91.34 ％.When the T2WI were equisignal,low signal or high signal respectively,the area under the curve ROC were 97.62 ％,90.00 ％,88.34 ％.Conclusion To consider the MRI T2WI and VEGF,ROC curve regression model analysis can enhance the differential diagnosis accuracy of meningioma and glioma.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the stilbene constituents from the traditional Chinese medicine Smilax china and to determine their antioxidant activity. Methods The compounds were separated and purified by column chromatography with silica gel, RP C18, and Sephadex LH- 20, and were identified by IR, MS, NMR. DPPH method was used to evaluate the free radical scavenging activity of the isolated compounds. Results Three compounds were isolated from the EtOAc fraction of the rhizomes of S. china and were identified as: resveratrol (1), oxyresveratrol (2) and 3, 5, 3′ , 4′ - tetrahydroxylstilbene (3). Compounds 1～ 3 showed strong antioxidant activity, and could scavenge DPPH free radicals, effectively. At the concentration of 50 ? mol/L, their DPPH free radical scavenging rates were 79.47 % , 89.89 % and 93.86 % , respectively. Conclusion Stilbenes might be the material foundation of antioxidant activities of rhizomes of S. china.
ABSTRACT
Objective Secondary metabolites of the soft coral were studied to find out the lead compound of the drugs. Methods Compounds from the soft coral Sinularia papillosa were obtained by column chromatography and modern isolation methods and their structures were identified by spectrum of UV,IR,NMR,MS,et al. Results Two white amorphous compounds were obtained from the EtOAc (ethyl acetate) fraction,and their structures were identified as pregn-5,20 -dien-3?-ol-3-O-?-L-fucopyranoside (1) and 1-(17Z-tetracose-nyloxy)-1,2 -propanediol (2) by spectral analysis. Conclusion Two compounds are first isolated from the soft coral genus Sinularia,which will be beneficial for the taxonomy of the soft coral and for biogenesis of steroids.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To study the enrichment-purification process of total triterpeniods from Rabdosia lophanthoides var.gerardianus with macro porous resin. METHODS: The purify of the total triterpeniods was used as marker to optimize the adsorptive capacity and elution characteristics. RESULTS: The result showed that 20 mL of the extraction solution(0.5 g/mL) was purified with a column of macro porous resin(d15 mm?h120 mm,V=20 mL,dried weight 10 g) and washed with distilled water,then eluted with 80 mL 60% ethanol and 160 mL 90% ethanol in proper order.With macro reticular resin to adsorb and purify,the elution ratio of total triterpeniods of 90% ethanol fraction was 93.2% and the purity reached above 20%. CONCLUSION: This process of applying macro reticular resin to adsorbing and purifying total triterpeniods from Herba Rabdosia lophanthoides var.gerardianus was successful.
