The normal mice and alloxan-induced hyperglycemic mice were given with different doses of Jat. Blood glucose and liver glycogen levels were determined by spectrophotometry with glucose-oxidase and iodine reagents respectively. The levels of blood lactic acid （LC） and liver lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） activity were measured to explore the effect of Jat on anaerobic glycolysis. Succinate dehydrogenase （SDH） activity in liver was measured to evaluate the effect of Jat on aerobic glycolysis in liver. It was found that Jat （50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg） could significantly decrease blood glucose level in a dose- and time-dependent manner in both normal and alloxan-diabetic mice, increase the activity of SDH, but had no significant effects on the LC level and LDH activity. Jat could significantly reduce the content of liver glycogen in normal mice. Moreover, Jat could inhibit the platelet aggregation in rabbits in vitro in a dose-effect relationship. It was concluded that Jat induced the pronounced decrease in blood glucose in normal and hyperglycemic mice. The hypoglycemic activity of Jat may be attributed to the enhancement of aerobic glycolysis.展开更多

Indexing of the crystal system and a search of the space group from the powder X-ray diffraction data were conducted by the computational crystallography method. The pilot crystal models of Jat were globally optimized with Monte Carlo method and then refined with the Rietveld method. In parallel with PXRD test, single crystals of Jat were cultured in an aqueous solution by a slow-decreasing temperature method, then its crystal structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). Both crystal structures from PXRD and SCXRD are identical. The results show that the crystal structure of Jat belongs to a monoclinic system and the space group P21/c. The parameters of cell dimensions from PXRD are a =7.69, b = 12.55 , c = 20.89 , β = 106.53°, Z = 4, and V = 1933.4 3, meanwhile the parameters from SCXRD are a = 7.72 , b = 12.61 , c =20.99 , β =106.38°, Z =4, and V =1961.3 3.展开更多
