[Method] Using the yield of total flavonoids as an indicator, the ultrasonic extraction process of total flavonoids from A. keiskei was optimized by orthogonal experimental design. [ Result ] Among four factors in orthogonal experimental design, extraction time exhibited the most significant effect on the extraction result; ethanol concentration exhib- ited a significant effect on the extraction result; ultrasonic power and solid-to-liquid ratio had no significant effect. The optimal conditions for ultrasonic extraction of total flavonoids from A. keiskei were extraction time of 25 min, ethanol concentration of 80%, ultrasonic power of 60 W, solid-to-liquid ratio of 1:20 (g/ml), under which the yield of total flavonoids reached 1.56%. [ Conclusion] This study provides the basis for further development and utilization of total flavonoids from A. keiskei.展开更多

Methods: Fifty mice inoculated hepatocarcinoma 22 cells were divided into five groups, 10 mice per group. Mice were given 5, 20, 40 mg/kg AC daily by mouth in low, middle and high dose groups respectively. Saline were given to the tumor control group by mouth. Twenty mg/kg cytoxan (CTX) by injection every other day were given to the positive control group. Ten days later, all mice were sacrificed. The levels of the Caspase-3 and Bax protein expression were measured by immunohistochemistry method and the proliferation activity of hepatocarcinoma cells was determined by MTT assay. Results: The expression level of Caspase-3 and Bax protein in tumor control group were 5.00% and 4.68%, respectively, and those of the high-dose group were 38.52% and 35.76%. The differences between two groups were significant (P < 0.05). The cell proliferation activity of tumor control group and high-dose group were 1.135 ± 0.032 and 0.716 ± 0.018. The difference was significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion: AC can increase the expression of Caspase-3 and Bax protein, and inhibit the proliferative activity of mice hepatocarcinoma cells.展开更多
