RESUMO
OBJECTIVE To study the intervention effect and mechanism of Zhongfeng yure decoction on ischemic stroke model rats. METHODS Totally 85 rats were randomly divided into sham operation group （normal saline， n＝15）， model control group （normal saline， n＝18）， Nimodipine tablet group （positive control， 10.8 mg/kg， n＝18）， high-dose group of Zhongfeng yure decoction （20.52 g/kg， n＝17） and low-dose group of Zhongfeng yure decoction （5.13 g/kg， n＝17）， respectively. After 7 days of preventive continuous administration （once a day）， except for the sham operation group， the rats’ middle cerebral artery occlusion （MCAO） model was established by the modified suture method in other groups. After modeling， the rats in each group continued to be administered for 3 days. During experiment， general condition of the rats was observed， and the neurological function score was performed. After the last administration， the organ index was calculated， the cerebral infarction area and pathological changes of brain tissue were observed. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and interleukin 6 （IL-6） in brain tissue and serum， and the average optical density value of caspase-3 and phosphorylated protein kinase B（p-AKT） protein in brain tissue were detected. RESULTS Three days after modeling， compared with sham operation group， the neurological function score， in brain tissue index， spleen tissue index， proportion of cerebral infarction area， the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in brain tissue and serum， and the average optical density value of caspase-3 protein in brain tissue were significantly increased in the model control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； karyopyknosis， diffuse edema and other lesions appeared in brain tissue. Compared with the model control group， the above indexes in each administration group were improved to varying degrees. Among them， there were significant regression in brain tissue index， spleen tissue index， proportion of cerebral infarction area， TNF-α level in brain tissue and serum， and the average optical density values of caspase-3 protein and p-AKT protein in brain tissue of rats in high-dose group of Zhongfeng yure decoction （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Zhongfeng yure decoction has a certain intervention and therapeutic effect on MCAO model rats. The mechanism may be to reduce the secretion of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6， down-regulate the expression of caspase-3 protein in ischemic brain tissue， up-regulate the expression of p-AKT protein， so as to protect the neurons.
RESUMO
Aim To study the combined effect Euphor-bia kansui of and Glycyrrhiza uralensis on metabolism of Kansuinine A and Kansuinine B. Methods Control, GU and GU plus EK groups were treated for 10 days, respectively. Then the liver microsomes were pre-pared. KA and KB were incubated with microsomes of each group, and concentrations of KA and KB were measured to reflect the metablism of KA and KB. E-rythromycin, diphenhydramine hydrochloride,benzbro-marone, cimetidine, fluconazole the inhibitors of CYP3 A4 , CYP2 D6 , CYP2 C9 , CYP1 A2 , CYP2 C19 respectively, were incubated with KA and KB. Con-centrations of KA and KB were measured to reveal the cytochrome P450 isoforms which involved in the metab-olism of them. KA and KB were incubated with glycyr-rhizic acid and enoxolone. Then concentrations of KA and KB were measured to reveal the effects of glycyr-rhizic acid and enoxolone to KA and KB. Results Concentrations of KA and KB in GU plus EK group were significantly higher than those in control and EK groups, which showed that the metablisom of KA and KB was inhibited in GU plus EK group. In addition, concentrations of KA and KB were higher in microsomes incubated with erythromycin, diphenhydramine hydrochloride, benzbromarone, cimetidine and fluconazole than in control group, which revealed that the metablism of KA and KB was slowed down when CYP3A4, CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 were inhibited. They may participate in the metablisom of KA and KB. After incubation with glycyrrhizic acid and enoxolone, the metablism of KA and KB was slowed down. Conclusions KA and KB may be the substrates of CYP2C19. GU plus EK can inhibit the activity of CYP2C19, which resulted in KA and KB metablism slowing down and accumulation. In addition, glycyrrhizic acid and enoxolone can inhibit the metablism of KA and KB. It may be one of the reasons of increased toxicity of GU plus EK.

A high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed for fingerprint of Dipsacus asper. Analysis were carried out on a Zorbax C-18 column by gradient elution using 0.1% phosphoric acid and acetonitrile as the mobile phases. The column was maintained at 25 degrees C, the flow rate was 1 mL x min(-1), and the detection wavelength was set at 205 nm. Asperosaponin VI was selected as reference compound, Seventeen common peaks were selected, and the fingerprint with good precision, stability and repeatability was successfully used to evaluate quality of 24 batches of crude extracts of D. asper. Chemical characteristics of D. asper was analyzed by DAD detection and HPLC-MS techniques with an ESI source. The quasi-molecular ions of compounds in both negative and positive modes were observed for molecule mass information of 33 compounds, and the potential structures of 10 characteristic components were identified by study on the mass spectra of compounds and comparing with reference data and some of standards. The results indicate the HPLC fingerprint of D. asper will show more characters through identification of component structures using an HPLC-ESI-MS method, and will control the quality of D. asper more effectively and reasonable.
