ABSTRACT
To study chemical constituents contained in roots of Caesalpinia millettii by HPLC. Six homoisoflavonoids were identified by spectroscopic data and physicochemical property as eucomin (1), intricatinol (2), 8-methoxybonducellin (3), bonducellin (4), 8-methoxyisobonducellin (5) and 3-(4-methoxybenzyl) -5, 7-dimethoxychroman-4-one (6). All compounds were separated from the root of this genus for the first time. An antibacterial screening was made on eight monomeric compounds. Among them, 8-methoxyisobonducellin, intricatinol, bergenin, hyperoside and 11-O-galloylbergenin showed a inhibitory effect on Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella Peneumoniae, Beta streptococcus and Aeruginosus bacillus.

Objective To study the protective effect of Octreotide against ischemia-reperfusion injury when liver was resected Methods Using the routine Pringle's maneuver hepaticvaseular occlusion,thirty patients for resection of liver with cirrhosis were random divided into two groups:octreotide group(n=15)and physiologic saline group(n=15).In octreotide group,the patients with hepatecto15),the patients were injected 1ml saline in the same way.The variations of postoperative liver function were measured.Plasma MDA and TNF-α after reperfusion for 1h were measured and the hepatic histopathologic alterations were also examined.Results The levels of ALT and AST from the octreotide group increased less than those of the physiologic saline group(P＜0.01).Meanwhile,Plasma MDA and TNF-α from the octreotide group was slightly increased(P＜0.01)and the hepatic histopathologic alterations were significantly decreased.Conclusions Given octreotide by subcutaneous injection before blocking portabepatis show all important protective effect against the hepatic isehemia-repedusion injury for resection of liver.
ABSTRACT
To search for bioactive compounds from the flower disc of Helianthus annuus L.,chromatography was used to isolate and purify the chemical constituents, their structures were identified by spectral analysis, MTT method was applied to investigate their cytotoxic activities, some compounds showed moderate cytotoxic activities on SF-268, MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines. Eleven compounds were obtained from the flower disc of H. annuus, and identified as ent-kaurane-2o, 16α-diol ( 1 ) and entkaurane-15α, 16α-epoxy-17-al-19-oic acid (2), and nine known diterpenes, ent-kaurane-16β-ol (3),phyllocladan-16β-ol (4) , ent-atisan-16α-ol ( 5 ) , grandifloric acid ( 6 ) , angeloylgrandifloric acid ( 7 ) ,ent-kaurane-16-en-19-oic acid (8), ent-kaurane-17-hydroxy-15-en-19-oic acid (9), ent-kaurane-16β,17-dihydroxy-19-oic acid (10), and ciliaric acid (11). Compounds 1 and 2 are new compounds, some compounds showed cytotoxic activities on SF-268, MCF-7 and HepG2 cell lines.
ABSTRACT
Aim To study the chemical constituents of Cypripedium tibeticum. Methods Compounds were isolated by repeated silica gel chromatography and purified on Sephadex LH-20 and structures were determined by spectral analysis. Results Cypritibetquinones A and B were isolated from the ethyl acetate residue and their structures were determined as 7-hydroxy-2-methoxy-1, 4-phenanthraquinone ( 1 ) and 7-hydroxy-2,10-dimethoxy-1,4-phenanthraquinone ( 2 ), respectively, by extensive spectral analyses. Conclusion Cypritibetquinones A and B are two new phenanthraquinones.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the new operation approach and the effect of surgical therapy on cardial carcinoma. Methods A total of 78 patients with cardial carcinoma received surgical therapy by the transabdominal route from January 1992 to January 2002, of which 30 cases were treated by total gastrectomy by substitution of P shaped jejunum and 48 cases were treated by subtotal gastrectomy. All patients were followed-up postoperatively from 6 months to 5 years. Results The average length of resected lower part of the esophagus above the tumors was over 5cm, without cancer tissue retained in resected edge. The rate of intramediastinal lymph node metastasis was 18.4%. 5-year survival rate of the patients with total gastrectomy was higher than that of the patients with subtotal gastrectomy, and the morbidity rate of reflux esophagitis of the former was lower than that of the latter. Conclusions The patients of cardial carcinoma in Ⅲ stage or Ⅱstage with lymph node metastasis of 5 or 6 groups should be treated by radical total gastrectomy. The P shaped reconstruction of stomach with jejunum as a replacement satisfies the physiological needs and causes less compications.
