ABSTRACT
The extract rates, multicomponent content and fingerprint were determined in this study to investigate the quality diffe-rence between standard decoction of raw Paeoniae Radix Alba and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba. UPLC fingerprint was established for 17 batches of standard decoction of raw and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba, and the contents of gallic acid, catechin, albiflorin, paeoniflorin and benzoyl paeoniflorin were determined. The peak areas of standard decoction were analyzed by the independent t-test and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis. There was no significant difference in extract rates between the standard decoction of raw and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba. After fried processing, the content of albiflorin increased by 0.26%, while the contents of gallic acid, catechin, paeoniflorin and benzoyl paeoniflorin decreased by 13.04%, 27.97%, 10.30% and 18.79% respectively. There were 14 common peaks in the fingerprint of standard decoction of raw Paeoniae Radix Alba, and 16 common peaks in the fried Paeoniae Radix Alba. Peak 1 and peak 3 were new ones after processing, among which the peak 3 was 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. The results showed that peak 1, peak 3, peak 11 and peak 15 were the key compounds to distinguish standard decoction of raw and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba. In conclusion, this method is stable and can be used for the study of quantity transfer and quality control in the preparation process of standard decoction, granules and other dosage forms for raw and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba, providing reference for the identification of raw and fried Paeoniae Radix Alba and related preparations.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To profile the protein expression in activated rat hepatic stellate cells (HSCs).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Primary rat HSCs were isolated and cultured in vitro. After 10 days in vitro culture, the HSCs were activated. Total protein extracted from these activated HSCs were digested, and the obtained peptides were analyzed by using online 2D nanoLC-MS/MS. The identified proteins were classified according to their distributions and functions.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>1014 proteins were identified from 50 microg HSCs protein extract, the molecular weights of these proteins ranged from 7832 Da to 588,364 Da. Most of these proteins resided in nucleus, cytoskeleton, mitochondrion and endoplasmic reticulum. And these proteins were mainly involved in nucleic acid metabolism, organelle organization, signal transduction and energy generation. Among these proteins, alpha-smooth muscle actin, vimentin and desmin were specifically expressed in activated HSCs.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>To the best of our knowledge, this is the most comprehensive protein expression profile of activated rat HSCs.</p>
