ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the content determination of geniposide in TCM callus convenient wipes drug solution. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Agilent Zorbax SB-C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1%phosphoric(10:90,V/V)at the flow rate of 1.0 ml/min,column temperature was 30 ℃,detection wavelength was 236 nm and the volume was 10 μl. RESULTS:The linear range of geniposide was 0.104 1-1.041 μg (r=0.999 8);RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2%;recovery was 99.04%-100.82%(RSD=0.85%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,accurate,reproducible,and can be used for the content determination of geniposide in TCM callus convenient wipes drug solution.
ABSTRACT
AIM:To investigate the expression of aplasia rashomolog member I ( ARHI) gene in acute myeloid leukemia cells (AML) and to study the effects of ARHI on the growth of AML cell line U937.METHODS:The mRNA ex-pression of ARHI in AML cells, 293FT cells, AML primary cells and healthy volunteer blood cells were detected by RT-PCR.After transfection with the MSCV-IRES-GFP-ARHI plasmid to the U937 cells, the growth curve was analyzed by MTT assay.U937 cells were re-suspended by fresh medium and cultured for 24 h, then the cell cycle distribution and ap-optotic rate were determined.RESULTS:The mRNA of ARHI was positively detectable in 293FT cells and healthy volun-teer blood cells instead of AML cell line and AML primary cells.The growth curve showed that cell viability in U937 cells with high expression of ARHI (U937-ARHI) was lower than that in the control cells (U937-GFP) on 6th~8th day.The ratio of G2/M phase and apoptotic rate in the U937-ARHI cells were increased compare with control group ( P<0.05 ) . CONCLUSION:The mRNA level of ARHI is low in AML cells.High expression of ARHI gene in U937 cells inhibits cell growth, arrests the cells at G2/M phase and induces apoptosis.
