Methods: The content of aflatoxin in Chinese medicinal materials was determined by spectrofluorimetry and high-performance liquid chromatography respectively, and the effects of the two detection methods were compared. Results: The results of sample detection by spectrofluorimetry showed that except for Angelica and Sophora flavescens with "detection dada error", the other 25 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials were positive for aflatoxin, but the types of aflatoxin derivatives could not be distinguished, and the tested content was generally high. The recovery experiment of mixed reference substance based on the concentration levels showed that the recovery rate of aflatoxin was 93.60%-99.70% in the case of high-performance liquid chromatography,and the RSD was 1.83%-6.70%. The sample detection results by high-performance liquid chromatography showed that among the 18 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials,only Radix Peucedani, almond, barley, raw Jianqu and aflatoxin were positive, and the types of aflatoxin derivatives could be accurately differentiated. Conclusion: Compared with spectrofluorimetry, high-performance liquid chromatography is more accurate in the determination of aflatoxin content in Chinese medicinal materials, which can distinguish the types of aflatoxin derivatives.展开更多

Various scaffold materials have been used in animal studies, but clinical studies on use of scaffolds for urethral repair are scarce. The aim of this study was to review recent animal and clinical studies on the use of different scaffolds for urethral repair, and to evaluate these scaffolds based on the evidence from these studies. Pub Med and OVID databases were searched to identify relevant studies, in conjunction with further manual search. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were systematically evaluated. Of 555 identified studies, 38 were included for analysis. It was found that in both animal and clinical studies, scaffolds seeded with cells were used for repair of large segmental defects of the urethra, such as in tubular urethroplasty. When the defect area was small, cell-free scaffolds were more likely to be applied. A lot of pre-clinical and limited clinical evidence showed that natural or artificial materials could be used as scaffolds for urethral repair. Urinary tissue engineering is still in the immature stage, and the safety, efficacy, cost-effectiveness of the scaffolds are needed for further study.展开更多

The results showed that different cells exhibited changes in response to different surfaces. Normal cells on -SH surface exhibited the smallest contact area with mostly rounded morphology, which led to the death of cancer cells, while cancer cells could not grow on -CH3 groups, which also died. In the co-culture system, the -CH3 group exhibited its unique effect that could trigger the death of cancer cells and had no effects on normal cells. Our findings provide useful information on strategies for the design of efficient and safe regenerative medicine materials.展开更多

文摘Objective: To analyze the effect of spectrofluorimetry and highperformance liquid chromatography in the detection of aflatoxin in Chinese medicinal materials. Methods: The content of aflatoxin in Chinese medicinal materials was determined by spectrofluorimetry and high-performance liquid chromatography respectively, and the effects of the two detection methods were compared. Results: The results of sample detection by spectrofluorimetry showed that except for Angelica and Sophora flavescens with "detection dada error", the other 25 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials were positive for aflatoxin, but the types of aflatoxin derivatives could not be distinguished, and the tested content was generally high. The recovery experiment of mixed reference substance based on the concentration levels showed that the recovery rate of aflatoxin was 93.60%-99.70% in the case of high-performance liquid chromatography,and the RSD was 1.83%-6.70%. The sample detection results by high-performance liquid chromatography showed that among the 18 kinds of Chinese medicinal materials,only Radix Peucedani, almond, barley, raw Jianqu and aflatoxin were positive, and the types of aflatoxin derivatives could be accurately differentiated. Conclusion: Compared with spectrofluorimetry, high-performance liquid chromatography is more accurate in the determination of aflatoxin content in Chinese medicinal materials, which can distinguish the types of aflatoxin derivatives.

The aim of this study was to review recent animal and clinical studies on the use of different scaffolds for urethral repair, and to evaluate these scaffolds based on the evidence from these studies. Pub Med and OVID databases were searched to identify relevant studies, in conjunction with further manual search. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were systematically evaluated. Of 555 identified studies, 38 were included for analysis. It was found that in both animal and clinical studies, scaffolds seeded with cells were used for repair of large segmental defects of the urethra, such as in tubular urethroplasty. When the defect area was small, cell-free scaffolds were more likely to be applied. A lot of pre-clinical and limited clinical evidence showed that natural or artificial materials could be used as scaffolds for urethral repair. Urinary tissue engineering is still in the immature stage, and the safety, efficacy, cost-effectiveness of the scaffolds are needed for further study.

文摘Salix carmanica Bornm(Salicaceae)is a tree plant and mainly produced in Hotan and Kashgar of Xinjiang,with the characteristics of drought resistance and super vitality.It is widely used in sand control and desert greening,and is one of the first-selected tree species for sand control,afforestation and ecological environment improvement.S.carmanica Bornm is also one of the genuine medicinal materials in Xinjiang,with pharmacological effects such as clearing away heat,diminishing swelling,promoting secretion of body fluid to quench thirst,reducing adverse effects,stopping vomiting and lowering blood pressure.In order to protect the ecology and tap the authentic medicinal resources in Xinjiang,this article focuses on the utilization value and cultivation techniques of S.carmanica Bornm.

文摘Mongolian pharmacy is an important part of traditional medicine for the Chinese nation,with a long history and a complete theoretical system.The Mongolian people have accumulated and summarized the types and usage of Mongolian medicines in the practice of fighting against diseases over a long history.Mongolian medicinal resources are rich and diverse,the processing is self-contained,and the methods of medication are scientific and reasonable.Mongolian pharmacy not only has a deep historical relationship with traditional Chinese medicine but has also absorbed the essence of ancient Tibetan and Indian Ayurvedic medicine in the process of its development.We can identify the historical traces of the continuous exchange,communication,and integration of various ethnic medicinal cultures from the names of Mongolian medicinal materials.Because of the differences in languages and cultures of the various ethnic groups,the names of Mongolian medicinal materials have undergone a long historical period of evolution.These need to be further standardized owing to complications caused by the existence of synonyms and homonyms.

文摘Liver normal cells and cancer cells co-cultured on surfaces modified by different chemical functional groups, including mercapto (-SH), hydroxyl (-OH) and methyl (-CHz) groups. The results showed that different cells exhibited changes in response to different surfaces. Normal cells on -SH surface exhibited the smallest contact area with mostly rounded morphology, which led to the death of cancer cells, while cancer cells could not grow on -CH3 groups, which also died. In the co-culture system, the -CH3 group exhibited its unique effect that could trigger the death of cancer cells and had no effects on normal cells. Our findings provide useful information on strategies for the design of efficient and safe regenerative medicine materials.
