RESUMO
BACKGROUND:Bone marrow stromal stem cel s have multilineage differentiation capacity and can differentiate into transparent chondrocytes under certain conditions, which can provide new thoughts for treatment of osteoarthritis. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Tougu Xiaotong Granule containing serum on the cartilage differentiation of bone marrow stromal stem cel s. METHODS:Bone marrow stromal stem cel s from Sprague-Dawley rat limbs were cultured in vitro, and those cel s at passage 3 were used in the study. Cel s were divided into six groups:saline serum group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract group, chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract and chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract and chondroinductive group. The Sox9, col agen Ⅱ, and col agen X mRNA and protein expression levels were tested by real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After cel s were intervened with drug-containing serum for 14 days, the Sox9, col agen Ⅱ, and col agen X mRNA and protein expression in Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract group, chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract and chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract and chondroinductive group were significantly higher than that in saline serum group (P<0.05, P<0.01). In addition, the chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract serum and chondroinductive group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract and chondroinductive group showed significantly higher expression levels than Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract serum group, Tougu Xiaotong Granule alcohol extract group (P<0.01). Sox9 expression in Tougu Xiaotong Granule water extract serum and chondroinductive group were significantly higher than that in the chondroinductive group. Experimental findings indicate that, Tougu Xiaotong Granule containing serum can accelerate bone marrow stromal stem cel s differentiate into cartilage cel s by up-regulation of Sox9 expression.
RESUMO
Objective To establish an HPLC method to determine sudan Ⅰ-Ⅳ and dye para red in the lipstick. Methods The samples were extracted with the acetonitrile, after centrifuge and filter, the extracted solution was tested by HPLC-UV and the external standard method was employed to do the quantitative analysis. Results As the concentrations was 1.0 mg/kg, the mean recovery rates were 93%-97%, the RSD was less than 4.6%, the detection limit was 0.05 mg/kg and the linear range was 0.2-5.0 mg/kg(the correlative coefficient ranged 0.998 5-0.999 8). Conclusion This method is simple, accurate, rapid and applicable to the determination of sudan I-IV and dye para red in the lipsticks.
RESUMO
Objective To understand the testing capability for organochlorine pesticides of the food inspection labs in China. Methods The CNCA organized the proficiency testing(PT) of determination of heptachlor, aldrin and dieldrin in the vegetable oils. 21 labs from 14 provinces (cities) took part in the PT. The GC method prescribed by official method of AOAC was recommended, other method was also permitted. Results The PT showed that 81.0%-85.7% labs presented satisfactory results, 9.5% had questionable results and 4.8%-9.5% had dissatisfactory results. Conclusion Most of the labs that took part in the PT have good competence in analyzing organochlorine pesticides.
