Research advances in transcatheter arterial chemoembolization combined with targeted agents or anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody in treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma / 临床肝胆病杂志

Transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is recommended by domestic and international guidelines for the treatment of patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC), and it is one of the most common treatment methods for patients with uHCC. The chemotherapy drugs commonly used in TACE for HCC include epirubicin, cisplatin, and fluorouracil, while it is still unclear which chemotherapy drug has a better clinical effect. This article summarizes the studies of different TACE regimens using different chemotherapy drugs in the treatment of patients with uHCC in the recent five years. TACE combined with sorafenib can significantly improve the survival of patients with advanced HCC and has been recommended for the treatment of such patients by Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology guidelines, and the efficacy of TACE combined with other tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) has become a research hotspot. Studies have shown that compared with TACE combined with sorafenib in the treatment of patients with advanced HCC, TACE combined with lenvatinib can achieve a significantly longer progression-free survival time and a tendency of increase in median overall survival time. However, due to the variation of target receptors or downstream signals, resistance to molecular-targeted agents is still a challenging problem. TKI combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors may be a promising strategy for the treatment of patients with uHCC. Some studies suggest that triple therapy using TACE combined with TKIs and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody has better efficacy in improving the survival of patients with uHCC. This article reviews the studies of the efficacy and safety of TACE combined with targeted agents and TACE combined with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 monoclonal antibody in the treatment of patients with uHCC in the recent five years.

Discussion on Particle Size of Powders and Decocted Powders in Famous Classical Formulas / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:Powders and decocted powders account for about 1/3 in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas （the First Batch）， and have a very important position. Determination of preparation technology and particle size in the pulverization process is the key step in the research and development of powders and decocted powders following the original methods. However， there are many terms describing the preparation technology and particle size of powders and decocted powders in ancient Chinese medical books， and the parameters are not clear. Due to the lack of unified basis of particle size， the existing research results have not formed a uniform consensus. Based on ancient textual researches and experimental results， this article discusses the particle size of decocted powders and powders. Method:Through textual researches of the preparation technology and particle size of powders and decocted powders and powder classification in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， the specifications of pulverized particle size were suggested. In addition， Xiebaisan and Danggui Buxuetang were taken as examples to investigate the influence of different particle sizes （4， 10， 24 mesh） on the preparation process of decocted powders and the obtained decoction. Result:The particle size of 4 mesh was equivalent to that of ancient as big as hemp bean. The contents of index components in Xiebaisan and Danggui Buxuetang with particle size of 4 mesh were higher than that of 10 mesh and 24 mesh， but the particle size of 50 mesh was too fine to be filtered. Conclusion:The suggested particle sizes of powders and decocted powders are recommended as Cumo is the power through 10-mesh sieve， Mo is the power through 24-mesh sieve， Ximo is the power through 80-mesh sieve， as big as hemp bean is the power through 4-mesh sieve and not through 10-mesh sieve.

Identification of Decoction Pieces and Standard Decoction of Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix by TLC / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Objective:There were 92 kinds of compound preparations containing Ophiopogonis Radix in the 2015 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia， but there was no effective method to identify these compound preparations. Because Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix are similar in appearance， it is easy to be confused in application. The aim of this study was to set up a thin layer chromatography （TLC） to identify compound preparations containing Ophiopogonis Radix and distinguish Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix in the forms of decoction pieces and standard decoction. Method:In this study， decoction pieces of Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix were collected and separately prepared as standard decoction. TLC was used to qualitatively identify decoction pieces and standard decoction of Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix， and compound preparations containing Ophiopogonis Radix. In the TLC， the lower solution of chloroform-methanol-water （65∶35∶10） was selected as the developing agent and 10% sulfuric acid ethanol solution as the chromogenic agent. Result:The resolution of this TLC was good. Decoction pieces， standard decoction and preparations of Ophiopogonis Radix had the same characteristic strips， which were two bright white fluorescent strips under ultraviolet lamp （365 nm）. But these two characteristic strips were not existed in the TLC of decoction pieces and standard decoction of Liriopes Radix. The corresponding components of both of these two strips were identified as mixture containing saponins by LC-MSn， including ophiopogonin Ra， Tb， ophiopogonin D'， borneol glycoside， ophiopogonin C and Liriope muscari baily saponins C. Conclusion:The established TLC method， which has significant advantages such as high specificity and sensitivity， can be applied to the characteristic identification of decoction pieces and standard decoction of Ophiopogonis Radix， the identification of compound preparations containing Ophiopogonis Radix， and the distinction of Ophiopogonis Radix and Liriopes Radix， thus serving as an effective method to qualitatively identify Ophiopogonis Radix and its compound preparations.

Optimization of analysis methods for Astragali Radix and quality evaluation of standard decoction of Astragali Radix / 中国中药杂志

Astragali Radix is commonly used as bulk medicinal materials. Chinese Pharmacopoeia contains about 150 compound preparations of Astragali Radix, but the sample preparation method under the determination of Astragali Radix content in Chinese Pharmacopoeia is tedious and time-consuming, not convenient for the test of a large number of samples. Therefore, it is of great significance to simplify the sample preparation method and improve the practicability of the method for the quality control of Astragali Radix and its preparations. In this study, ultrasonic extraction method was used instead of heated reflux extraction, and solid phase extraction method was used to enrich and prepare the samples. A set of practical quality evaluation method was established for Astragali Radix slices and standard decoction, greatly shortening the sample preparation time and improving the accuracy of the method. The results of Astragali Radix standard decoction analysis showed that the transfer rate of calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucospyranoside,(96.5±28.7)%, had great variation, which was found to be related to the conversion of mulberry isoflavone glucoside into calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucospyranoside during the preparation of standard decoction. The transfer rates were(59.4±14.4)% and(101.3±12.3)% for calycosin and astragaloside Ⅳ respectively, which were relatively stable. Therefore, it is suggested that Astragali Radix slices and water decoction preparations should be evaluated by using calycosin and astragaloside Ⅳ as the quality evaluation index. The results provide a scientific and practical method for quality control of Astragali Radix slices and its standard decoction, and also provide scientific evidence for quality evaluation of the preparations.

The role of hypoxia-related molecules in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Osteoarthritis is one of the most common chronic diseases in orthopedics.With increasing populations of aging and obese people,its incidence has risen year by year and become a major public health problem.The hallmark of osteoarthritis is cartilage destruction,the main cause of which is degradation of extracellular matrix by catabolic enzymes and death of chondrocytes caused by apoptosis or autophagy.Articular cartilage is a hypoxic environment because it lacks blood supply and the joint cavity is relatively closed.A hypoxic environment induces chondrocytes to produce a series of hypoxia-related molecules which can regulate the expression of catabolic enzymes,autophagy and apoptosis of chondrocytes for osteoarthritis.This paper aims to review recent reports on the relationship between hypoxic-related molecules and pathogenesis of osteoarthritis and discuss the role of hypoxia-related molecules in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis.

Some thoughts on health food formulated with traditional Chinese medicine / 中国中药杂志

The health food industry is an important support for the big health industry and the strategy of healthy China. The Chinese medicine prescription health food has exceeded 60% of the total declared health food. However,the main basis for its function evaluation,the Technical Specification for Inspection and Evaluation of Health Food,was abolished in 2018,and 27 of them were based on modern medical and nutritional theories. Quantitative efficacy evaluation methods in western pharmacology are short of function claims and function evaluation methods reflecting the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine,which could affect the health food industry to a certain extent. Therefore,the establishment of the evaluation mechanism of Chinese medicine prescription health food which conforms to the positioning of health food and the theory of traditional Chinese medicine is helpful for the healthy development of health food industry. In this paper,this problem was explained from five aspects. First,how to differentiate the positioning of Chinese medicine prescription health food from ordinary food and medicine,and how to embody the characteristics of Chinese medicine. Secondly,the relationship between traditional Chinese medicine prescription health food and Chinese patent medicine. Thirdly,how to scientifically and reasonably determine the raw materials of traditional Chinese medicine prescription health food. Fourthly,how to explain the function claim of traditional Chinese medicine prescription health food,and how to evaluate its function scientifically and reasonably. Fifthly,the functional evaluation of Chinese herbal medicine prescription health food is connected with other national scientific and technological strategies. In this paper,a preliminary analysis of the Chinese medicine prescription health food was conducted from the above five aspects,and some personal views and suggestions were put forward,hoping to provide reference for the competent authorities and researchers.

Current situation and research strategy of quality control of health food containing Chinese materia medica / 中国中药杂志

Health food containing Chinese materia medica has many advantages in health preservation and reducing the risk of disease occurrence,which meets people's demands for " great health" and " preventive treatment of disease". However,due to its complex ingredients,diverse quality of raw materials,as well as the vagueness and lack of integrity for existing quality standards,chaos is caused in the health food market,which restricts its healthy development and also poses new challenges to the quality control of healthy food. At present,the total component content or single component content is determined in most functional/marker component examinations. Safety and microbial detection methods fail to cover the contamination range of the raw materials of Chinese materia medica.Therefore,it is impossible to meet the purpose of ensuring authenticity,safety and efficacy. In recent years,a lot of Chinese materia medica extracts have been used as raw materials for food products,but many extracts lack standards. The author believes that the quality control of health food containing Chinese materia medicas should start with the quality control of Chinese materia medica extracts. In this way,product quality is controlled from source to ensure product consistency; secondly,the overall quality control should be strengthened to ensure the authenticity of the products; the scope of safety inspection shall be expanded to fundamentally ensure the safety of products. At the same time,we should strengthen the quality control of whole process and strengthen the overall quality control of raw materials to produce health food of high quality.
