Effect of functional high-intensity interval training combined with inhalation dietary intervention on obese college students / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To observe the effect of functional high-intensity intermittent training combined with breathing and diet intervention on body shape, blood lipid and liver function of obese college students, so as to verify and improve the relevant intervention methods.@*Methods@#Fifty-eight obese college students recruited by Chongqing Telecom Vocational College were selected as participants. According to gender and body mass index (BMI), functional high-intensity intermittent training, breathing training and diet control intervention were carried out for 6 weeks. BMI, body fat percentage, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT) and other physical indicators were compared before and after intervention.@*Results@#Before and after the intervention, the changes of body indexes were as follows: BMI, body fat percentage of male and female were significantly decreased (t=7.57,4.40;4.17,5.61，P<0.01); TC, TG and LDL-C of male and female were significantly decreased, while HDL-C increased significantly (t=7.56，5.80；2.58，4.76；12.26，11.07；3.72，3.37，P<0.05); NAFLD, abnormal ALT , abnormal ast , abnormal GGT were significantly reduced(P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#The comprehensive intervention method can significantly reduce body weight and regulate blood lipid metabolism and liver function in obese college students, and the intervention experience is better. It can be applied and promoted as an effective way to lose weight for obese college students.

Pueraria lobate advances in molecular pharmacognosy / 中国中药杂志

Molecular pharmacognosy is a science of classification and identification, cultivation and protection, and production of active ingredients of graduated drugs at the molecular level. The proposal of molecular pharmacognosy allows the research of crude drugs to advance from the microscopic level to the genetic level. Pueraria lobata root, as a medicinal and edible plant, has high application value and economic value. There are many varieties that are easy to cause confusion, and it is not easy to distinguish and identify according to traditional identification methods. Moreover, the research of P. lobate root at the genetic level is still relatively shallow. the study received extensive attention of scholars. This article reviews recent research on molecular identification of P. lobate, transcriptome sequencing, cloning and synthesis of functional genes of P. lobate root in recent years in order to provide references for further promoting the development and utilization of P. lobate root and its active ingredients.

Difference Analysis of Chemical Constituents in Different Varieties of Puerariae Flos by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:To compare the chemical constituents of Puerariae Flos from three different varieties of <italic>Pueraria montana</italic> var. <italic>lobata</italic>， <italic>P. montana</italic> var. <italic>thomsonii</italic> and <italic>P</italic>. <italic>montana</italic> var<italic>. montana</italic>. Method:Ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） was used with the mobile phase of 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution （A）-acetonitrile （B） for gradient elution （0-20 min， 10%-30%B； 20-30 min， 30%-55%B； 30-35 min， 55%-95%B； 35-37 min， 95%B； 37-40 min， 95%-10%B）， the flow rate was 0.25 mL·min^-1. Electrospray ionization （ESI） was used to scan and collect MS data in positive and negative ion modes with scanning range of <italic>m</italic>/<italic>z</italic> 50-1 500. The chemical components from different sources of Puerariae Flos were identified in combination with the chemical composition database and literature information. After the obtained data were normalized by MarkerView^TM 1.2.1， they were imported into SICMA-P 14.1 software for principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） to select the main differentiated components among the three different varieties. Result:A total of 35 compounds were identified from three different varieties of Puerariae Flos， including 22 isoflavones， 6 flavonoids and 7 saponins. The flowers of <italic>P</italic>. <italic>lobata</italic>， <italic>P. montana</italic> var. <italic>thomsonii</italic> and <italic>P</italic>. <italic>montana</italic> var<italic>. montana</italic> contained 32， 35， 33 compounds， respectively. And 18 differential compounds were screened under the positive and negative ion modes， including kakkalide， tectoridin， 6″-<italic>O</italic>-xylosyl-tectoridin， 4'-methyltectorigenin-7-glucoside， glycitin， 6″-<italic>O</italic>-xylosyl-glycitin， irisolidone， kaikasaponin Ⅲ， 6″-<italic>O</italic>-malonylglycitin， kakkalidone， tectorigenin， rutin， soyasaponin BB， vitexin， biochanin A， genistin， kakkatin， azukisaponin Ⅱ. Conclusion:This research is the first to systematically study the chemical constituents of the flower of <italic>P</italic>. <italic>montana</italic> var<italic>. montana</italic>， although the flower of <italic>P</italic>. <italic>montana</italic> var<italic>. montana</italic> is used as adulterants， it has high contents of tectoridin and 6″-<italic>O</italic>-xylosyl-tectoridin， which has great potential for development. The efficacy components such as kakkalide and tectoridin in Puerariae Flos from the three sources of varieties are obviously different， and it is necessary to carefully consider the application of these three varieties as Puerariae Flos.
