RESUMEN
Objective To examine the therapeutic effect of C Ⅱ TA inhibition in collagen-induced arthritis(CIA),using a delivery system tailored to target C ⅡTA gene by small interfering RNA (siRNA).Methods Mice with collagen-induced arthritis were injected intravenously with C Ⅱ TA siRNA.The clinical score was monitored for up to 4 weeks after treatment.The severity of inflammation of mouse joint was evaluated by histological examination.Real-time PCR was used to determine the cytokine mRNA expression.Cytokine production was measured by ELISA from serum.T cell proliferation was examined by MTT method.Results IFN-γ and IL-17 were elevated in CIA mice,but were iuhibited significantly by C Ⅱ TA siRNA either prevention or intervention of autoimmune arthritis.Collagen specific T cell proliferation was significantly suppressed.Increased level of IL-4 by T cells was observed in C Ⅱ TA siRNA treated group compared with that of control group.Conclusion Our findings indicate that systemic RNAi-mediated C Ⅱ TA gene silencing is effective in the treatment of CIA and regulateds the balance of Th1/Th2 differentiation.
RESUMEN
Object To establish a HPLC method for determination of ethyl p hydroxybenzoate in Dragon's Blood. Methods Using C 18 reverse phase column and acetonitrile 1% acetic acid (31∶69) as mobile phase, detecting at 257 nm and quantitating with external standard method. Results The standard curves of ethyl p hydroxybenzoate showed good linearity over the range of 0.206-2.884 ng, r=0.999 8. The average recovery was 96.02% and RSD was 1.87%. Conclusion The method is quick and simple, and it is accurate and reliable for the determination of ethyl p hydroxybenzoate in Dragon's Blood.
RESUMEN
Object To identify the differences of chemical constituents of Dragon's Blood obtained by different extract processing. Methods The mentioned Dragon's Blood was analyzed by TLC, UV spectro photometry, and HPLC. Results The contents of dihydrochalcone in Dragon's Blood by the new extract processing were higher than that by traditional one's, while the contents of flavonoid and stibene were lower. Conclusion The heating free technology is a new technique that is an original with higher extract rate, and it is worth of spreading. It will promote the modernization of TCM.
RESUMEN
Objective: To establish HPLC method for the determination of loureirin A and loureirin B in Sanguis Draxonis Capsules.Methods: HPLC system included C 18 reverse phase column and acetonitrile 1% acetic acid (34∶66) as mobile phase, detection at 280nm and external standard method.Results:The standard curves of loureirin A was linear in the concentration range of 98～490ng, r =0.9996.The average recovery was 97.45%, RSD was 1.82%.The standard curves of loureirin B was linear in the concentration range of 43.2～259.2, r = 0.9993 .The average recovery was 96.92%, RSD was 1.57%.The contents of loureirin A and loureirin B in Sanguis Draxonis from heating free technology were higher than traditional technology.Conclusion: This heating free technology is a new technique that is a creation with higher extract rate,this method is worth populariging.
RESUMEN
Objective: To establish HPLC method for determination of pterostilbene in Dragon's Blood with different extraction technology. Method: Applying a C 18 phase column and acetonitrile 1% acetic acid(41∶59) as mobile phase, detecting at 319nm and quantitating with external standard method. Results: The standard curves of pterostilbene was linear in the concentration range of 10.4～104ng, r =0.9992. The average recovery was 98.28%, RSD =1.97%. The content of pterostilbene in Dragon's Blood extracted with ordinary temperature was lower than that with heating technology. Conclusion: The content of pterostilbene extracted with ordinary temperature extraction in Dragon's blood have the advantage of heating extraction.
