ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of total alkaloids from Rhynchophylline on hypertensive target organs. Methods 40 spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs) were divided into 4 groups as follows: normal control group,positive control with Tianma Goutengyin granule at 750 mg?d-1 ,total alkaloids from Rhynchophylline at 2.5 mg?day-1 as low dosage,and at 15.0 mg?d-1 as high dosage.All the rats were fed up for 20 weeks,and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS,in ms?mmHg-1)was determined by revised Smyth’s method.Heart,brain and kidney of the rats were sectioned for histological analysis at the end of 20th week. Results In sixteenth weeks,BRS of positive control,Tianma Goutengyin granule group,total alkaloids at low dosage and high dosage were(0.27±0.05),(0.31±0.06),(0.35±0.08),(0.34±0.08) ms?mmHg-1,respectively.BRS in SHR was not decreased except in the positive control.The treatment groups were superior to the normal control group in structure of heart,but not in the brain and kidney of the rats. Conclusion Total alkaloids from Rhynchophyllinecould protect heart from hypertensive injury.
ABSTRACT
Based on the optimized technology on 50L scale, B subtilis 754# was used to manufacture guanosine on pilot scale (12M 3) and plant scale (100M 3) to give the production of 29 4g/L and 21 4g/L successively Through scale down the process of plant scale to pilot scale, based on the theory of dynamic metabolic flux, DO was found to be another key factor that limited the scale up process After conquering the DO limitation, the optimized technology was successfully scaled up to plant scale and the production was further increased by 18% to 25 2 g/L
