OBJECTIVE:To compare the c hemical components differences of Inula japonica before and after honey-frying. METHODS:UPLC-MS/MS method was adopted. The determination was performed on Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH C 18 column with mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid-acetonitrile (gradient elution )at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The column temperature was set at 30 ℃,and sample size was 5 µL. The electrospray ion source was scanned by positive ion mode. The first order mass spectrometry scanning range was m/z 70-1 050,the second order mass spectrometry scanning range was m/z 50-1 050, and the normalized collision energy was 40,60 eV ;mass spectrum type was the peak figure ,the flow rate of sheath gas was 35 arb,the auxiliary airflow speed was 10 arb,the spray voltage was 3.80 kV,the S-lens voltage was 50 V,the heating temperature was 350 ℃,and the capillary temperature was 350 ℃. The components were identified by Qual Browser 4.1.39.1 software, referring to the online high-resolution database mzCloud and local database OTCML of high-resolution mass spectrometry of TCM , and combined with relevant literature. The principal component analysis (PCA)and orthogonal partial least squared-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA)of I. japonica before and after honey-fried were performed by using SIMCA 14.1 statistical software ,and variable importance projection (VIP)value greater than 1 was used as the standard to screen the differential components before and after honey-frying. RESULTS :A total of 29 common chemical components were identified from I. japonica and honey-fried I. japonica,including 5 phenolic acids as 1-caffeoylquinic acid ,chlorogenic acid and 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid ,12 flavonoids as quercetin,luteolin and evamectin ,as well as 12 sesquiterpene lactones as 1-O-acetylinula diester ,inula bicolor lactone B and 1-O-acetyl-6-O-isobutyryl inulin. The results of PCA showed that I. japonica and honey-fried I. japonica were located on both sides of the score diagram respectively. The results of OPLS-DA showed that the VIP values of 7 components were greater than 1,which were peak 19(britanin),peak 6(quercetagitrin),peak 1(1-caffeoylquinic acid ),peak 21(vitexicarpin),peak 20(tomentosin), peak 13(spinacetin)and peak 3(daphnetin). CONCLUSIONS :After honey-fried ,the content of chemical components of I. japonica changed and decreased to a certain extent. Britanin ,quercetagitrin,1-caffeoylquinic acid ,tomentosin,vitexicarpin, spinacetin and daphnetin may be the differential components of I. japonica and honey-fried I. japonica .
Résumé
italic>Inula japonica, Inula hupehensis and Inula linaariifolia are all medicinal plants of Inula L. in the Compositae family, and Inula hupehensis is endemic to China. In order to compare their genomic sequence differences and provide scientific basis for their germplasm conservation and development, we obtained and analyzed the complete chloroplast genomes of these three species. Total DNAs were extracted from fresh leaves and subjected to next-generation DNA sequencing. NOVOPlasty was used to assemble the chloroplast genomes from the sequence reads. CPGAVAS2 was used to annotate the genes and repeats in each genome. Lastly, phylogenomics analysis was conducted using RAxML. The results showed that the total length of the chloroplast genome of Inula japonica, Inula hupehensis and Inula linaariifolia is 150 754, 150 909, and 150 812 bp respectively, each consisting of a large single copy region, a small single copy region and a pair of inverted repeat regions. In addition, the G/C content of all three chloroplast genomes was approximately 37.7% and each encoded 111 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding, 28 tRNA and 4 rRNA genes. Meanwhile, 32, 33, 34 simple repeat sequences, 18, 22, 18 tandem repeat sequences and 33, 37, 38 scattered repeat sequences were identified in three species. Phylogenomic analysis showed that all three species of Inula L. and Pluchea indica were clustered together, with the relationship between Inuleae and Senecioneae closer, suggesting that Inuleae may have originated from the Senecioneae, not the Cardueae. The data in this study not only enriches the chloroplast genome database of Inula L., but also lays the foundation for the future studies of species identification, phylogenetic relationships, evolution history and genetic diversity of Inula species.
Résumé
Inula japonica was used as the research object, "3414" fertilization experiment were conducted to study the effects of nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium formula fertilizer on the growth and chemical composition content of I. japonica. The characteristics of fertilizer requirement were preliminarily revealed and the study provided fertilization guidance for artificial cultivation of I. japonica. The results showed that different nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium formula fertilizers had significant effects on plant morphology,physiological and biochemical indexes,dry matter accumulation and chemical composition content. The growth indexes and chemical components of I. japonica showed an upward trend with the increase of fertilization amount,especially the nitrogen fertilizer was the most significant. The indicators were analyzed by membership function. After comprehensive evaluation,the optimal nitrogen,phosphorus and potassium formula fertilization level was N3 P2 K2,namely high level nitrogen fertilizer,medium level phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer. I. japonica is a high fertilizer demand plant,and the rational fertilization scheme is " applying nitrogen fertilizer again and applying phosphorus and potassium fertilizer properly".

BACKGROUND: The flowers of Inula japonica (Inulae Flos) have long been used in traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory properties of Inulae Flos Extract (IFE). METHODS: The anti-inflammatory effects of IFE against nitric oxide (NO), PGE2, TNF-alpha, and IL-6 release, as well as NF-kappa B and MAP kinase activation were evaluated in RAW 264.7 cells. RESULTS: IFE inhibited the production of NO and the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. In addition, IFE reduced the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-alpha and IL-6. Furthermore, IFE inhibited the NF-kappa B activation induced by LPS, which was associated with the abrogation of I kappa B-alpha degradation and subsequent decreases in nuclear p65 and p50 levels. Moreover, the phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, and p38 MAP kinases in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells was suppressed by IFE in a dose-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the anti-inflammation activities of IFE might be attributed to the inhibition of NO, iNOS and cytokine expression through the down-regulation of NF-kappa B activation via suppression of I kappa B alpha and MAP kinase phosphorylation in macrophages.
