To investigate the sedative effects and effect pathways of PLAE, rats (n = 31) were employed in two experiments and intragastrically administrated of (1) distilled water, PLAE (500 mg/kg body weight (BW)) and peanut stem aqueous extracts (PSAE, 500 mg/kg BW);(2) 0, 100 or 500 mg/kg BW of PLAE, respectively for at least 14 days. Six relevant neurotransmitters were measured finally. Experiment-1 (n = 16) results showed that the brain Lactate were significantly elevated (p < 0.05) in rat cerebrums after PLAE administrations, compared with Control and PSAE groups. In respect of brain energy system, significant degradations of the brain adenosine triphos- phate (ATP) (p < 0.05) were observed in the brainstems and even the whole brains of rats though PLAE treatments. Moreover, we found that the brain Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) were clearly decreased (p < 0.05) in rat cerebrum and brainstem regions, while the brain Adenosine revealed an increasing propensity (p = 0.076) in the cerebrums of freely behaving rats. After experiment-2 (n = 15), the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentrations were statistically (p < 0.05) enhanced and the ratios of Glutamate/GABA were simultaneously reduced (p < 0.05) in rat brainstems, no matter which one dose (100 or 500 mg/kg BW) of PLAE were used. Results indicated that PLAE could influence the target neurotransmitters that related to rat circadian rhythms in the specific brain regions, possessing the potentialities as a sedative or sleep-aid for hypnic therapy purposes.展开更多
研究60Coγ-射线不同剂量辐照落花生茎叶提取生物碱的工艺条件及参数,并分析落花生茎叶生物碱的种类。采用紫外分光光度法测定总生物碱的含量或吸光值,考察大孔树脂种类、型号,洗脱液的种类、浓度等对落花生茎叶总生物碱纯化效果的影响...研究60Coγ-射线不同剂量辐照落花生茎叶提取生物碱的工艺条件及参数,并分析落花生茎叶生物碱的种类。采用紫外分光光度法测定总生物碱的含量或吸光值,考察大孔树脂种类、型号,洗脱液的种类、浓度等对落花生茎叶总生物碱纯化效果的影响,并用液相色谱对落花生茎叶生物碱进行定性定量分析。结果显示,总生物碱含量随吸收剂量的增加,先上升后下降;在吸收剂量为5 k Gy时达到最高(7.970±0.117)%,显著优于超声波提取法的(1.485±0.061)%(t检验,p<0.001)。大孔树脂AB-8的纯化效果最好,洗脱溶媒为60%甲醇时洗脱效果最好,获得的生物碱纯度可达99.99%。高效液相色谱结果分析表明,落花生茎叶生物碱主要为胆碱,其含量约为2.61 g·kg-1花生茎叶。展开更多
