ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone in Haoweilai soft capsule. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Dikma C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile- water (V/V,55∶45) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,detection wavelength was 225 nm,column temperature was 25 ℃,and the injection volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear range were 24.00-108.00 μg/ml(r=0.999 7) for costunolide and 20.88-93.98 μg/ml for dehydrocostus lactone (r=0.999 8);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 1%;recoveries were 98.71%-100.00%(RSD=0.25%,n=6)and 96.88%-99.18%(RSD=0.40%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple with good stability and reproducibility,and can be used for the simultaneous determination of costunolide and dehydrocostus lactone in Haoweilai soft capsule.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical features of Marfan syndrome (MFS) and its virulence gene mutation of FBN1.Methods Clinical data of 2 children with MFS were retrospectively analyzed, and pertinent literatures were reviewed. Results Case one was a 1 year and 10 months old boy with a special face, bilateral lower eyelid edema, high palatal arch, slender fingers and toes. A little of moist rales in lung could be heard, and systolic accentuated in apex could be heard too. Echocardiography showed that aortic coronary sinus dilated, aorta and pulmonary artery broadened, left ventricular diverticulum, a small amount of mitral regurgitation,and moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Electrocardiogram showed incomplete right bundle branch block. Gene detection found a c.3037G>A mutation (p.Gly1013Arg) inFBN1. Case two was a 12 years old slender boy with spider-like ifnger/toe, high myopia, 2/6 systolic and diastolic murmur in the ifrst and two auscultation area in aortic valves. Echocardiography showed the aortic sinus signiifcantly broadened, aortic incompetence, mild pulmonary regurgitation and left ventricular enlargement. Gene detection found heterozygous mutation of c.1876G>A (p.Gly626Arg) in FBN1, which has not been reported.Conclusion The diagnosis of MFS can be conifrmed byFBN1 gene detection. A new mutation of c.1876G>A (p.Gly626Arg) was detected.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the association between MPO gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) loci (rs2333227,-643G/A) and clinical characteristics in Kawasaki disease (KD) in Han population in central China. Methods A case-control study was performed. Two hundred and thirty-seven children with KD and 249 normal children were recruited. The polymorphism distribution of SNP was detected using PCR-RFLP. The clinical data of children with KD were collected. Results The frequency of SNP loci (rs2333227) genotypes (GG, GA, AA) was signiifcantly different between children with KD and normal children (P=0.039), the allele frequency was also signiifcantly different between two groups (P=0.012), and the G allele was the risk factor. Compared with other genotypes, KD children with GG genotype had higher frequency in hand-foot edema (P=0.029). The SNP polymorphism was also associated with peritoneal effusion (P=0.028), however this SNP polymorphism was not associated with conjunctival hyperemia, oral mucosa lesions, and coronary artery lesion (P>0.05), also was not associated to imaging characteristics of hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, and lobular pneumonia (P>0.05). Conclusion The SNP loci (rs2333227) in MPO gene was associated with KD susceptibility, the G allele was a risk factor, and the SNP polymorphisms is associated with some clinical characteristic.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the association between nucleotide polymorphisms ofGRIN3A gene and clinical characteristic of Kawasaki disease (KD) in children in Han population in central Chinese.MethodsA case-control study was performed. A total of 191 children with KD were recruited and 217 healthy children were served as controls. The distribution of SNP was determined by PCR-RFLP. Arterial lesions were detected by echocardiographic.ResultsThe distribution of three genotypes (CC, CG, GG) in SNP (rs7849782) was statistically difference between KD and control groups (P=0.034), and C allele was associated with KD susceptibility (OR=1.46, 95%CI: 1.10-1.92,P=0.007). In children with KD, the polymorphism of SNP loci was signiifcantly associated with oral mucosa lesions and coronary artery lesion (P0.05). The polymorphism of SNP loci was also associated with the levels of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP) (P<0.05).ConclusionThe ploymorphism of SNP loci ofGRIN3A gene (rs7849782) was associated with the susceptibility of KD. The C allele was the risk factors. The poly-morphism of SNP was associated with oral mucosa lesions and coronary artery lesion, and may affect the levels of ESR and CRP.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To establish the qualitative and quantitative methods for Gubaoxinshen Tablets. Method: Soy bean, and epimedium herb were identified by TLC, and the content of genistein and icarrin were determined by HPLC. Result: The developed TLC sports were was fairly clear, the HPLC method showed good repeatability. The average recovery of genistein was 98.9% with RSD 0.9%, and the average recovery of icarrin the was 98.0% with RSD 1.0%. Conclusion: The method is simple, accurate and can becauseofon control quality of Gubaoxinshen Tablets.
ABSTRACT
Objective To improve the quality standard for Xielixiao Pills. Methods Rhizoma coptidis, Radix paeoniae alba, Fructus evodia, Poria were identified by TLC. The content of Berberine Hydrochloride was determined by HTLC. Results The identification and content determination methods were simple, accurate, exclusive, and with good reproducibility. Conclusion The improving quality standard can control the quality of this product effectively.
ABSTRACT
Six compounds, syringaresinol (Ⅰ), 2,5－dimothoxy－1,4－benzoquinone(Ⅱ), ?－sitost erol (Ⅲ)verticine (Ⅳ), verticiaone (Ⅴ) and solnidine(Ⅵ) were isolated from the aerial parts of Fritillaria thunbergii Miq. Their structures were determined by spectral data and chemical,evidences Ⅰ and Ⅱ were obtained from the Fritillaria L. for the first time.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To establish an HPLC fingerprint spectrum of Red Peony Root ( Radix paeonia rubra). METHODS:Ten batches of samples were extracted by 50% ethanol and extract liquor was evaporated to dryness,resolved with methanol. The HPLC analysis was performed on a Diamonsil C18 column with the eluting system of gradient acetonitrile and water. MS was applied to the determination of possible chemical structure. RESULTS:Nine main characteristic peaks were selected from the fingerprint spectrum of 10 batches of samples. Five constituents of which were identified as gallic acid,peoniflorin albiflorin,benzoylpaeoniflorin and paeonol based on the MS spectra. CONCLUSION:The method is valuable for quality conthol of Red Peony Root.
