ABSTRACT
As a most effective monomer composition from bark of Pacific Yew,paclitaxel and its derivatives are used in clinical practice as broad spectrum anticancer drugs.Since its discovery in the 1970 s,many researches had been carried out,mainly focusing on the modification,structure-activity relationship and pharmacological activity.The great successes pressed ahead the development of a series of taxol-like drugs,including taxol,docetaxel,cabazitaxel,larotaxel.Nowadays,studies of taxol are still the hotpots,which concentrated on the new source such as cultivation of tissue,fungus culture and new dosage forms.As the representative of drugs research from natural source,taxol is worth to be summarized of its history and ongoing development for looking forward to bring new innovation mentality in new drugs.

ABSTRACT
AIM:To investigate COX-2 and iNOS protein contents and their interaction in vascular endothelium injury of rats with deficiency of vital energy or qi stagnation,and the prevetion and treatment of Tongxinluo.METHODS:The model of vascular endothelium injury of rats with deficiency of vital energy or qi stagnation was established by using high L-Methionine,with load-carrying swimming or being fastened respectively.Western blotting was used to analyze protein contents of COX-2 and iNOS,co-immunoprecipitation and laser confocal microscopy were used to analyze the interaction between COX-2 and iNOS.Optical microscope and electronic microscope were used to evaluate pathological changes in vascular endothelium.RESULTS:The protein contents of COX-2 and iNOS,and their interaction increased significantly in deficiency of vital energy group and qi stagnation group,in accord with injury of vascular endothelium.Compared with deficiency of vital energy group and qi stagnation group respectively,their protein contents decreased and their interaction was weakened in Tongxinluo groups.CONCLUSION:When protein contents of COX-2 and iNOS increase and their interaction enhance after vascular endothelium injury of rats with deficiency of vital energy or qi stagnation,initiate exacerbations,Tongxinluo could attenuate the alterations and protect vascular endothelium from injury.
