Screening of quantitative preparation quality markers of Zhibao Sanbian Wan / 药学学报

On the basis of the qualitative preparation quality markers of Zhibao Sanbian Wan (ZBSBW), we screened out the quantitative markers and evaluated the content consistency of ZBSBW. A method capable of simultaneously determining 34 compounds in ZBSBW was established based on HPLC-MS/MS, and 16 batches of ZBSBW were simultaneously analyzed by this method. Furthermore, we explored a general strategy for analyzing the component migration in preparation, plasma, brain tissue and cerebrospinal fluid. The methodological investigation was confirmed by linear range, recovery (85.10%-105.07%), precision (RSD: 1.37%-4.58%), stability, and repeatability (3.00%-12.45%), the established method was suitable for the detection and quantification of the compounds in ZBSBW. The contents of compounds in ZBSBW were all lower than 1 mg·g-1, and the contents and daily dose of nystose were the highest, followed by echinacoside, paeoniflorin, osthole and paeonol. The results of systematic clustering showed that the contents were consistent for ordinary preparations of ZBSBW. The principal component analysis showed that the components of berberine, ginsenoside Re, ginsenoside Rg1, pinoresinol diglucoside and tenuifolin had large variation, which contributed significantly to the grouping. The contents of echinacoside, verbascoside, polygalaxanthone Ⅲ, β-ecdysterone, osthole, alisol B 23-acetate, liquiritin and glycyrrhizic acid were stable from batch to batch. The animal experiment results showed that osthole, paeonol and liquiritin in ZBSBW could be absorbed into the blood and enter the brain tissue by passing through the blood-brain barrier. All animal studies were reviewed and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Institute of Chinese Materia Medica, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences (No. 2020B071). The above compounds contributed the quantitative preparation quality markers of ZBSBW. In conclusion, the HPLC-MS/MS method established in this study was sensitive, accurate and rapid, and could be used for simultaneous quantification of 34 compounds and content consistency evaluation of multiple batches of preparations in ZBSBW. The result provided a methodological basis for the screening of quantitative preparation quality markers and material basis research of ZBSBW.

Reappraisal of Systematic Reviews of Glucagon-like Peptide- 1 Receptor Agonist in the Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Based on GRADE System / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE：To reappraise systematic review/Meta-analysis （SRs/MAs）of the efficacy and safety of glucagon-like peptide 1（GLP-1）receptor agonist in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM），and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical use of these drugs in the treatment of T 2DM. METHODS ：Retireved from Cochrane library ，PubMed，Embase，CBM， Wanfang database and CNKI ，systematic review/Me ta-analysis about GLP- 1 receptor agonist in the treatment of T 2DM were collected during the inception to Dec. 2019. After data extraction of literatures met inclusion and exclusion criteria ，GRADE system was used to evaluate the quality of evidence included in the study ，and the evidence of efficacy and safety outcome indexes were summarized. RESULTS ：Finally 31 literatures were included ，involving 91 outcome indexes ，and GRADE evidence quality was medium，among which 4（4.4％）were very-low-quality ，33（36.3％）were low-quality ，45（49.5％）were medium-quality ，and 9 （9.9％）were high-quality outcome indicators. The results of evidence summary showed that GLP- 1 receptor agonists were better than or similar to placebo and other oral hypoglycemic drugs ， better than dipeptidyl peptidase 4 （DPP-4） inhibitors in . reducing the level of HbA 1c；better than or similar to placebo ， JDZX2015240） better than other oral hypoglycemic agents and DPP- 4 2276299207@qq.com inhibitors in reducing the level of fasting glucose ；similar to DDP-4 inhibitors，higher than or similar to placebo ，lower than other oral hypoglycemic dru gs in the incidence of hypoglycemia；higher than other oral hypoglycemic drugs ，placebo and DPP- 4 inhibitors in the incidence of diarrhea and nausea ； higher than other oral hypoglycemic drugs and placebo in the incidence of vomiting. CONCLUSIONS ：The evidence quality of systematic review/Meta-analysis about GLP- 1 receptor agonist in the treatment of T 2DM are moderate. These drugs have good clinical efficacy in the treatment of T 2DM，but their safety are not as good as placebo or other oral hypoglycemic drugs.

Optimization of Purification and Isolation of Punicalagin from Pomegranate Peel / 中国药师

Objective: To establish the methods for extraction and isolation of punicalagin from pomegranate peel, and further study the purification and quantification of punicalagin. Methods: Using an ultrasonic-assisted extraction method, punicalagin in pomegranate peel was extracted at room temperature by 50% ethanol with 20-fold volume of raw material. The content of punicalagin in the crude extract was determined by HPLC. To optimize the purification process of punicalagin, static adsorption and desorption experi-ments were employed to study five kinds of macroporous adsorbent resins (D101, A8-8, NKA-9, HPD-100 and HPD-500) for the one with the highest purification efficacy of punicalagin. In addition, the technical parameters of the macroporous adsorbent resin were opti-mized to obtain punicalagin with higher purity. Punicalagin was further separated and purified by using a reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. Results:HPD500 resin showed the best ability to absorb and separate punicalagin in among five kinds of macro-porous adsorbent resins. The best technical parameters were as follows:the mass concentration of sample solution was 15 mg·ml-1 , the loading amount was 2BV, the pH was 2 and the eluting solvent was 8BV of 30% ethanol. With the best process as described a-bove, the content of punicalagin extracted from pomegranate peel increased from 10. 3% to 30. 7%. The obtained punicalagin could be further purified to 61. 3% from 30% in ethanol eluate by the reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. Conclusion:HPD500 resin is the most effective in the purification of punicalagin from pomegranate peel, and the content of punicalagin can be dramatically increased after the purification by a reverse phase MCI GEL CHP20P column. The optimized process shows good reproducibility and stability.

Preparation of cell penetrating peptide TAT and cleavable PEGco-modified liposomes loaded with paclitaxel and its in vitro apoptosis assay / 药学学报

The preparation method, serum stability, efficiency of cellular uptake and apoptosis induction of the cell penetrating peptide TAT and cleavable PEG co-modified liposomes loaded with paclitaxel (C-TAT-Lipo) were investigated. The best preparation procedure was performed by orthogonal test based on single factor screening method. First, the paclitaxel (PTX)-loaded liposomes were prepared by filming-rehydration method, evaluated with entrapment efficiency and polydispersity index. The morphology of C-TAT-Lipo was characterized by transmission electron microscopy. Turbidity variations were monitored in the presence of fetal bovine serum (FBS) to evaluate the serum stability of the liposomes developed here. Next, the efficiency of cellular uptake of different Rho-PE-labeled liposomes on B16F1 cells in vitro was evaluated by confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and flow cytometry. The quantitative analysis of apoptosis induced by different PTX-loaded liposomes was performed by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. The optimal formulation was as follows: Chol : lipid: 1 : 8 (molar ratio); drug : lipid: 1 : 40 (mass ratio); lipid concentration: 3 mmol x L(-1); temperature of hydration: 25 degrees C. The mean size and polydispersity index of C-TAT-Lipo were about (97.97 +/- 3.68) nm and 0.196 +/- 0.037, the zeta potential was (-0.89 +/- 0.45) mV, the entrapment efficiency of paclitaxel was (90.16 +/- 1.53)%. The particle sizes did not exhibit significant variations in 50% FBS over 24 h at 37 degrees C. The efficiency of cellular uptake of the C-TAT-Lipo increased 1.40 fold following the cleavage of PEG. Apoptosis analysis showed 59.3% increase of the apoptosis and necrosis profile of C-TAT-Lipo after the detachment of PEG shells, which was markedly higher than that of N-TAT-LP with or without glutathione and SL, respectively. The results indicate that the C-TAT-Lipo is successfully prepared by filming-rehydration method and shows significant antitumor activities.
