RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:To study the protective effects of Polygonum hydropiper extract on acute gastric mucosal lesion (AGML)in rats. METHODS:48 rats were randomly divided into normal group(normal saline),model group(normal saline), positive group(ranitidine hydrochloride,0.05 g/kg),P. hydropiper extract low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups(2.7, 8.1,24.3 g/kg by crude drug),i.g. for consecutive 7 d,once a day. Except for normal group,other groups were given absolute ethyl alcohol to induce AGMI model after 1 h of last administration. 1.5 h after modeling,gastric mucosal lesion index of rats was calculated;the pathological changes of gastric tissue in rats were observed;nuclear factor E2 related factor 2(Nrf2)content and SOD activity in gastric tissue of rats were determined by ELISA. RESULTS:Compared with normal group,the gastric mucosa of model group was damaged obviously,there was blood capillary rupture in submucosa,gastric mucosal lesion index was increased significantly(P<0.01);Nrf2 content and SOD activity were significantly decreased in gastric tissue of rats(P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group,gastric mucosal lesion of rats was relieved to different extent;in positive group,P. hydropiper extract medium-dose and high-dose groups,gastric mucosal lesion index was decreased significantly(P<0.05),and Nrf2 content and SOD activity were increased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS:P. hydropiper extract has good protective effect on absolute ethyl alcohol-induce AGMI,the mechanism of which may be associated with raising Nrf2 content and enhancing SOD activity in gastric mucosal tissue.

OBJECTIVE:To study the percutaneous absorption of 0.03% Tacrolimus ointment,and to compare the difference of domestic test preparation and imported reference preparation. METHODS:Modified Franz diffusion cells were adopted in trans-dermal test in vitro;HPLC-MS method was used to determine permeation amount and rate in vitro,delay time of domestic test preparation and imported reference preparation 0.03%Tacrolimus ointment. RESULTS:24 h in vitro permeation amount of test and reference preparations were(3 907±1 191)and(3 896±1 064)ng/cm2;permeation rates were 186.7 and 182.9 ng/(cm2·h);de-lay time were 1.95 and 2.00 h,respectively(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Test preparation shows good percutaneous property,and is similar to reference preparation in penetration absorbency through nude mice skin.

OJECTIVE To investigate the preventive effect of Fengliao extract on ulcerative colitis of mice. METHODS Using the intestinal propulsion rate experiment and senna induced diarrhea model , the intestinal propulsion rate, diarrhea rate and index of diarrhea were observed. Mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group,mesalazine hydrochloride group and Fengliao extract 11.7, 23.4 and 46.8 g · kg-1 group. The mouse colitis model was induced by 4% dextran sulfate sodium. The mice were administraed once daily for 7 d while the disease activity index(DAI)score was calculated and the activity of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β), myeloperoxidase(MPO) and content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and nitric monoxide (NO) in colon tissue were determined. RESULTS Fengliao extract 46.8 g · kg-1 inhibited the intestinal propulsion rate(P<0.05),reduced the frequency of diarrhea and the diarrhea index(P<0.05). Results of colitis showed that the body mass of mice in the model group was significantly decreased but the DAI score increased compared with normal group(P<0.05). The activity of MPO and the contents of IL-1β,TNF-α,MDA and NO in colon mucosa were increased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group,Fengliao extract 46.8 g·kg-1 decreased the DAI score(P<0.05)while Fengliao extract 46.8 and 23.4 g · kg-1 reduced MPO activity in colonic mucosa and content of IL-1β,TNF-α,MDA and NO in colonic homogenate(P<0.05). CONCLUSION Fengliao extract can significantly improve the DSS induced colitis in mice,which is probably associated with its antispasmodic and anti-diarrheal effect as well as the reduced release of inflammatory mediators and antioxidants.

Objective To optimize purification technology of total flavonoids in Callicarpa nudiflora Hook. et Arm. by macroporous adsorption resin. Methods Macroporous resin models including AB-8, D-101, HP-20, HP2MG, were optimized by static adsorption and desorption experiments regarding to adsorption rate and desorption rate of total flavonoids. Purification technology parameters of total flavonoids were optimized by single factor test. Results HP-20 macroporous resin presented the best purification efficiency,the optimum purification conditions were that taking 4. 46 mg·mL-1 of total flavonoidsat pH 3. 0, loading at 3 BV·h-1, washed with 3BV of water at 3 BV·h-1,then eluted with 4 BV 75% ethanol at 2 BV·h-1, finally obtaining the total flavonoids from the dry extract of Callicarpa nudiflora Hook. et Arn. with the purity of 47. 4%. Conclusion HP-20 macroporous resin is suitable for preliminary purification of total flavonoids in Callicarpa nudiflora Hook. et Arn.
