Preparation And Characterization of Tripterine-Coix Seed Component Microemulsions And Its Inhibition on Lung Cancer In Vivo / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

This study was aimed to prepare tripterine-coix seed component microemulsions (TCC-MEs) with coix seed oil and coix seed polysaccharide as bimodal excipients and evaluate its activity on anti-lung cancer in vivo.Coix seed oil was extracted by supercritical extraction methods and coix seed polysaccharide was obtained through hot water extraction and alcohol precipitation from coix seed.Then,coix seed oil was used as the oil phase,and coix seed polysaccharide aqueous solution was used as the aqueous phase.RH40 was used as the surfactant.PEG400 was used as cosurfactant to prepare microemulsion.TCC-MEs were made by water titration method and characterized by size,polymer dispersity index (PDI),zeta potential,encapsulation efficiency and drug loading capacity.And then,anti-tumor activity of TCC-MEs was evaluated on the xenograft Lewis tumor mouse models.The liver and kidney toxicity was evaluated by HE staining and biochemical indicators.The results showed that the optimized prescription for TCC-MEs was coix seed oil 400 mg,RH40 300 mg,PEG 400 100 mg,coix seed polysaccharide 50 mg,tripterine 10 mg;and the tripterine encapsulation efficiency was (90.72 ± 0.28)％;the drug loading capacity was (1.08 ± 0.17)％;the mean diameter of microemulsion was (43.86 ± 0.22) nm;PDI was 0.10 ± 0.01;the zeta potential was (-13.14 ± 1.35) mV.The activity of anti-lung cancer in TCC-MEs was significantly better than that of the control group,with no significant liver and kidney toxicity after treatment with TCC-MEs.It was concluded that the prepared TCC-MEs had advantages of small amount of conventional auxiliary materials,small particle size and high stability.This study showed that the combination of triptolide and coix seed to microemulsion system has synergistic and attenuated effect.

Extraction and purification of giant salamander skin mucous glycoprotein and study its anti-cancer activity of lung cancer / 中国生化药物杂志

Objective To study the appearance of skin mucous glycoprotein in vitro on the activity of human lung cancer cells A549. Methods Used alkali extraction and DEAE-52 ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel chromatography purification salamander mucous glycoprotein; Salamander mucous glycoprotein inhibition of human lung cancer cells A549 was detected by MTT colorimetric method in vitro.ResuIts It showed that the total sugar content in the appearance of mucus was 4.23%, the relatively pure glycoprotein component, by SDS protein electrophoresis tests, it contained a single glycoprotein component, its molecular weight was about 30 kDa.With glycoprotein pure concentration increased from 1,10, 20,40μg/mL, the glycoprotein inhibition rate of A549 cells increased; when the glycoprotein concentration was 40 μg/mL, for 24 h action, the inhibition rate of A549 cells was up to 85.66 %, while the role of 48 h, the inhibition rate of A549 cells was up to 92.32%.Inhibition effect of mucus glycoprotein on A549 cell compared with positive control drug, had significant difference.ConcIusion Salamander mucus glycoproteins of human lung cancer cells has obvious inhibitory effect, can provide theoretical basis for the development of lung cancer drug resistance.

Preparation of Lingyi Formula multicomponent microemulsion and its anti-lung cancer activity / 中草药

Objective: To prepare Lingyi Formula multicomponent microemulsion and evaluate its anti-lung cancer activity. Methods: Lingyi Formula multicomponent microemulsion was prepared by aqueous titration method using polysaccharides solution of Ganoderma lucidum and Coix lachryma-jobi var. ma-yuen as aqueous phase and coix seed oil as oil phase, loading ganoderma triterpenes. The average particle size, Zeta potential, and stability were detected. The results of antitumor efficacy including tumor inhibitory rate, body weight change, immune organ index, and concentration of TNF-α and IL-6 were investigated. Besides, pathological section of tumor tissue and TUNEL labeling were conducted subsequently. Results: The prepared microemulsion displayed spherical surface with mean droplet size of (69.92 ± 8.43) nm, polydispersity (PDI) of 0.060 ± 0.008, and Zeta potential of (-11.30 ± 1.34) mV. Tumor inhibitory rate of microemulsion (57.25%) was significantly higher than that of suspension (45.89%), immune tissue index as well as the concentration of TNF-α and IL-6 were increased significantly. TUNEL labeling and pathological section of tumor tissue showed that the antitumor activity of microemulsion was significantly effective compared with that of suspensions. Conclusion: Lingyi Formula multicomponent microemulsion has a good anti-lung cancer activity.

Study on Effective Polysaccharide of Anti-Human Lung Cancer A549 Cells in Zhou’s Prescription for Resolving Mass / 中国中医药信息杂志

Objective To study content and ascription of the composition of the polysaccharides from Zhou’s Prescription for Resolving Mass. Method The polysaccharide was extracted by ethanol precipitation, and purified by savage method. DEAE-cellulose anion exchange resin was used to prepare the composition of polysaccharides. UV-spectra was used to detect protein and IR-spectra was used to analyses the ascription of the composition of polysaccharides. The content of the composition of polysaccharides was determined by anthranone-sulfuric acid method. Result There was no absorption at 240 nm and 260 nm. The IR spectrum graph of the polysaccharides was similar to Polygonatum odoratum, Radix Ranunculi Ternati and Agrimonia pilosa Ledeb. The content of the composition of polysaccharides was 1.41%. Conclusion The composition of polysaccharides does not contain proteins and nucleic acids, and come from Polygonatum odoratum, Radix Ranunculi Ternati and grimonia pilosa Ledeb.
