Discussing the Dietary Regimen and Disease Prevention and its Application as an Anti‑epidemic Measure

This article discusses the role of dietary regimen in the traditional culture of Chinese medicine according to its origin.Dietary regimen is a technique that inherits the traditional culture of Chinese medicine.Through analysis of the characteristics of the dietary regimen and the discussion of the idea of disease prevention,the application of the dietary regimen in disease prevention is sought.Under the guidance of three key factors,the application of the dietary regimen in disease prevention is mainly manifested in two aspects.First,the dietary regimen can be used to guide the daily reasonable diet to maintain the human body in a balance of Yin and Yang,which could prevent the occurrence of diseases.Second,on the basis of minimizing health loss,it can be used for disease treatment,adjuvant treatment,and rehabilitation.Finally,taking preventive treatment as the guiding ideology,the application of a dietary regimen as an“anti‑epidemic”was briefly discussed.

Triptolide-loaded microemulsion-based hydrogels: physical properties and percutaneous permeability

Triptolide is a diterpenoid compound that inhibits the inflammation of rheumatoid arthritis(RA).However,the use of triptolide is limited due to its strong gastrointestinal toxicity.The purpose of this work was to develop a transdermal delivery system for triptolide to reduce this toxicity.A microemulsion-based hydrogel(MBH)was prepared from the combination of Gemseal 40-oleic acid as oil phase,Tween 80-labrasol as surfactant,anhydrous ethanol as co-surfactant,water as aqueous phase and Poloxamer 407 as hydrogel matrix.Rheological measurements,environmental scanning electron microscopy(ESEM)and transdermal experiments in vitro were used to characterize triptolide-loaded and blank MBH preparations.The effects of Poloxamer 407 and triptolide on the rheological properties and microstructures of the MBH were determined.Transparent and homogeneous MBH could only be formed when the concentration of Poloxamer 407 in the selected O/W microemulsion was in the range of 14.0–16.0%(w/w).When the concentration of Poloxamer 407 increased,the rheological properties such as the yield stresses(sy),storage and loss moduli(G′,G″)of the formulations increased,and the network structures became more compact.The addition of triptolide did not change the interconnected network structures of the MBH preparations.MBH preparations afford a better sustained release profile when compared to microemulsions,a finding confirmed by an in vitro permeation test in mice.MBH appears to be a promising vehicle for transdermal delivery of triptolide.

Simultaneous quantifi cation and evaluate the differences of two skeleton components in raw,salt and wine Angelicae Pubescentis Radix by UPLC-MS/MS in negative/positive modes coupled with chemometrics

The aim of this study was to establish an ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple-quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry method with positive and negative ion exchange scanning mode for simultaneous quantification of two different skeleton components to reveal the differences among raw and processed Angelicae Pubescentis Radix. The results of methodology showed that each compound had good linearity and recovery rates. And the chemometrics results indicate that there were differences not only in Angelicae Pubescentis Radix samples from different sources but also in raw and processed Angelicae Pubescentis Radix. The results of this study confirm that the method has been successfully applied in simultaneous determination and discovering the difference of two different skeleton components between raw and processed Angelicae Pubescentis Radix for the first time. In short, the method could be an effective tool for detecting the quality of traditional Chinese medicine, and can better reveal the difference between raw and processed Chinese medicine from different sources.
