The structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic methods (UV, IR, FAB_MS, 1H_NMR and 13 C NMR). Antifungal assay of all compounds showed that metabolite 1, quercitrin and quercetin were inhibitory to the growth of phytopathogenic fungus Helminthosporium sativum Pamel King et Bakke with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 25, 50 and 50 μg/mL, respectively. Moreover, glycoside 1 and quercitrin were also shown to be able to inhibit the growth of Fusarium graminearum Schw. with MIC of 100 μg/mL. The MICs of ketoconazole used as control against the test fungi were 0.5 μg/mL in our assay.展开更多

HPLC-DAD and LC/MS^n methods were used to analyze the metabolites in intestinal tract and plasma after oral administration of baicalein 6,7-diacetate to rats. Baicalein 6,7-diacetate was degraded into baicalein 6-monoacetate and baicalein in rat intestinal tract, and four baicalein glucuronides, baicalein 6-0- glucuronide, baicalein 6-methoxyl-7-O-glucuronide, baicalein 6,7-di-O-glucuronide, and baicalein 6-O-glucose-7-O-glucuronide were detected and tentatively identified in rat plasma. This is the first time to report the metabolites of baicalein 6,7-diacetate in rats. Six metabolites were identified in rat intestinal tract and plasma.展开更多

METHODS： Fifty rats were randomly divided into five groups, 10 rats in each group. Trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid （TNBS） was infused into the pancreatic duct to induce chronic pancreatitis in rats （except for normal group）. Emodin-treated rats were fed with different doses of emodin （20, 40 and 80 mg/kg body weight） for 28 d, while normal group and control group received 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Serum levels of hyaluronic acid （HA） and laminin （LN） were determined by radioimmunoassay. Histopathological alterations were studied by optical microscopy. Expression of collagen was also examined while transforming growth factor- beta-1 （TGF-131） was localized by immunochemistry. RESULTS： In emodin-treated rats, the serum levels of HA and LN were decreased significantly （HA, 62.2 ± 19.3 μg/L vs 112.7 ± 26.5μg/L, P 〈 0.05; LN 44.3 ± 10.4 μg/L vs 86.2 ± 16.5 μg/L, P 〈 0.05）; the degree of fibrosis was ameliorated observably; the expression of collagen in pancreatic tissue was reduced especially in high-dose emodin-treated group （36% ± 5% vs 42% ± 6%, P 〈 0.05）; with the increased doses of emodin, the expression of TGF-β1 was declined, compared with those in control group. CONCLUSION： Emodin has an anti-fibrotic effect on pancreatic fibrosis in rats. Because of its anti-fibrotic effect, it could be a potential herb for the treatment of chronic pancreatitis.展开更多
The effects of 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(morpholin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazole(Pr02), 1-(3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-oxoethan-2-yl-N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate(Pr04) and 1-(5-bromo-2-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl)-1-oxoethan-2-yl-Oethy...The effects of 4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-2-(morpholin-4-yl)-1,3-thiazole(Pr02), 1-(3,5-dibromo-2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-oxoethan-2-yl-N,N-diethyldithiocarbamate(Pr04) and 1-(5-bromo-2-hydroxy-3-methylphenyl)-1-oxoethan-2-yl-Oethyl xanthate(Pr06) on the aqueous oxidation of chalcopyrite(CuFeS2) in air-equilibrated solution at a temperature of 25 ℃ and a pH of 2.5 were studied. The effects were investigated by using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS), scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersive X-ray(SEM/EDX) analysis, aqueous batch experiments, Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman scattering and quantum chemical calculations. It is found that the anodic current densities decrease in the order of EtOH > Pr02 > Pr04 > Pr06. These results, along with those of the EIS measurements, show that Pr02, Pr04 and Pr06 are effective anodic inhibitors of chalcopyrite aqueous oxidation. Both Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy indicate that the elemental sulfur, polysulfide and ferric oxyhydroxides that form on the surface of the mineral are not responsible when it comes to the aqueous oxidation inhibition of chalcopyrite. Quantum chemical calculations show that the adsorption of the tested compounds on the chalcopyrite surface is energetically favorable and so, it can explain the inhibiting effects that were observed.展开更多
