ABSTRACT
Aim To explore the protective effect of pedunculoside (PE) on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. Methods Rat model of acute myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury was prepared by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery (LAD) of the heart for 30 min and reperfusion for 24 h, and the rats were randomly divided into seven groups (re = 10): sham group (Sham), acute myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury model group (M), captopril group (Capt), metoprolol group (MT), PE low, medium and high dosage groups (2. 5, 5 and 10 mg · kg
ABSTRACT
Objective:To optimize the extraction process of Ilex chinensis Sims by Box-Behnken response surface method. Meth-ods:The HPLC determination of pedunculoside was performed and validated. With the extraction rate of pedunculoside as the index, the influencing factors including material-liquid ratio, ethanol concentration, reflowing temperature and decocting frequency were opti-mized by Box-Behnken response surface method. Results:The optimized parameters were as follows:the material/liquid ratio was 1:10, the ethanol concentration was 70%, the ultrasonic temperature was 80℃,and the decocting frequency was three times. Conclu-sion:The HPLC method and the best extraction conditions are reliable.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To study the metabolism of pedunculoside treated with rat intestinal bacteria in vitro. Methods:Pedunculo-side and rat intestinal bacteria were incubated in vitro for 0, 4, 8, 24 and 48 hours under anaerobic condition. After extracted repeat-edly by ethyl acetate, the metabolites in the incubation media were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by HPLC. Results:Totally 90. 8% of pedunculoside was transformed to M2 after incubated with rat intestinal bacteria in vitro for 48 hours, and a detailed compari-son of HPLC profiles between M2 and rotundic acid showed M2 was rotundic acid. Conclusion: Pedunculoside can be metabolized to rotundic acid by rat intestinal bacteria in vitro.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for the simultaneous determination of syringinand and pedunculoside in Zhuang medicine Yuyang powder. METHODS:HPLC was performed on the column of Agilent ODS with mobile phase of acetonitrile-water (gradient elution)at a flow rate of 1 ml/min,the detection wavelength was 210 nm,the column temperature was 30℃,and the in-jection volume was 5μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 0.71-3.55μg for syringin(r=0.999 7)and 1.62-8.10μg for pedunculoside (r=0.999 8), respectively;RSDs of precision, stability and reproducibility tests were lower than 3%;recoveries were 100.8%-104.9%(RSD=1.7%,n=6) and 96.0%-100.8%(RSD=2.2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,stable and reproducible,and can be used for the simultaneous determination of syringinand and pedunculoside in Zhuang medicine Yuyang powder.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate and evaluate the quality of Cortex Ilicis Rotundae medicinal materials in Chinese herbal medicine market. Methods Twenty-two batches of Cortex Ilicis Rotundae commercial medicinal materials were identified and analyzed by characteristic identification, microscopic identification, thin layer chromatography ( TLC) and extractives determination, and the contents of syringin and pedunculoside were detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) according to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia published in 2010. And then the quality of the medicinal material of Cortex Ilicis Rotundae was evaluated comprehensively. Results Of the 22 batches of Cortex Ilicis Rotundae medicinal materials, 2 batches were adulterated with fake Cortex Ilicis Rotundae, one batch was inferior and was mixed with counterfeits, and the quality of 12 batches was also poor. Conclusion At present, the quality of Cortex Ilicis Rotundae medicinal materials in Chinese herbal medicine market varies greatly, and adulterants and the inferior are common.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To study the chemical constituents from Millettia speciosa. Methods: The compounds were isolated and purified by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20, ODS column chromatography, and recrystallization. The structures were identified using physicochemical and spectral data. Results: Thirteen compounds were isolated from M. speciosa and identified as docosanoic acid (1), tetracosane (2), octadecane (3), hexacosanoic acid (4), β-sitosterol acetate (5), β-sitosterol (6), syringin (7), maackiain (8), formononetin (9), ψ-baptigenin (10), rotundic acid (11), pedunculoside (12), and daucosterol (13). Conclusion: Compounds 5, 7, and 10-12 are obtained from this plant for the first time.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate an optimum extracting technology for total glycosides from dried barks of Ilex rotunda Thunb. Methods The yields of pedunculoside and syringin by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) determination were taken as the indexes. Some parameters of the extraction technology were evaluated with an L9(3)4 orthogonal design. The optimum extraction parameters were used to extract total glycosides in laboratory. The feasibility was checked by determining the chemical constituents by means of HPLC method. Results The optimum extracting conditions were 12 times volumes of 50% ethanol as the solvent and refluxing 90 min each time for 3 times. An extract yield of total glycosides was 19.5% from barks of Ilex rotunda. Pedunculoside (292 mg/g), syringin (59.5 mg/g), sinapaldehyde glucoside, syringaresinol 4'-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, and syringaresinol 4',4'-di-O-β-D-glucopyranoside were detected in the extract. Conclusion Some glycosides were found in the extract with the optimum extraction technology in laboratory. The extraction technology is practicable and valid.
