RESUMO
Objective To develop a method of quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker(QAMS) for determination of effective components of naphthopyrone glycosides and anthraquinone aglycone in Cassia tora L.Methods The separation was performed on a Sunfire C18 column (4.6 mm ×250 mm,5 μm), and column temperature 30 ℃.Aetonitrile-0.1% H3PO4 was used as the mobile phase with gradient elution.The detection wavelength was at 278 nm and 284 nm.Relative correction factor by determination of Between aurantio-obtusin and rubrofusarin-gentiobioside or chrysophanol or physcion.the method was evaluated for reproducibility, and the difference between calculated and measured values was compared. Results Rubrofusarin-gentiobioside, aurantio-obtusin, chrysophanol and physcion respectively 0.0503-1.5078, 0.3197-9.5899, 0.5070-15.2108, 0.4027-12.0814μg showed a good linear relationship, and the regression equation is Y =4.95X +2.01(R2 =0.9998),Y =1.03X +0.03(R2 =0.9999),Y=3.98X-0.12(R2 =0.9993),Y =4.81X +0.26(R2 =0.9996).The quantitative results of six batches of Cassia tora L by QAMS was basically consistent with that by external standard method.Conclusion The QAMS method was reliable and accurate, which might be used for the quality control of Cassia tora L.
RESUMO
By using the method of chondrocytes in monolayer culture in vitro we observed the effect of free radicals generated by the xanthine oxidase and xanthine on DNA, matrix proteoglycan (PG), collagen synthesis and ultrastructure of human embryo chondrocytes. Our results showed that the synthesis of DNA, PG and collagen of the chondrocytes were obviously inhibited and the membranes and subcellular organelles of the chondrocytes were damaged strongly. On the bases of these results we suggest that oxygen free radicals from poymorphonuclear leukocytes and phagocytes would be the important factors of cartilage injury in arthritis.
