应用自主研发的具有分离-富集模式的制备色谱工厂,建立了分离制备五味子木脂素有效部位及其单体化合物的方法。该方法首先以C₁₈（250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm）为色谱柱,水和甲醇为流动相,分离度和保留时间为考察指标,采集4个不同梯度的色谱信息,通过XTool色谱专家系统软件模拟,确定五味子木脂素第一、二维色谱条件;然后采用线性放大的方法,以C₁₈（250 mm×30 mm,10 μm）为第一、二维分离柱,C₁₈（80 mm×30 mm,10 μm）为富集柱,水为富集稀释液,对五味子木脂素进行二维色谱分离纯化;最后第一维分离得到9个可重复组分,第二维分离得到20个高纯度化合物,其中有6个单体化合物。结果表明该法重现性良好,可以实现五味子木脂素的系统性分离,对五味子化学成分的研究具有重要意义。     

太空育种射干的FTIR分析

对我国首创的第4代太空育种射干与地面组射干的非晶成分从整体上进行了测定和对比分析,以期为更全面地了解太空射干品质的变化和深入研究积累资料,探索建立太空射干质量标准。结果表明两组样品的FTIR谱的主要吸收峰的峰位、峰形大致相同,但峰的强度却有明显差异。与地面组相比,太空射干在1 642 cm-1处酮类的CO伸缩振动峰增强,表明太空射干中的主要活性成分异黄酮类化合物含量明显增加,在1 318 cm-1处一水草酸钙吸收峰增加,在1 541,1 456 cm-1处分子中苯环的环伸缩振动峰、1 417 cm-1处亚甲基的C—H键弯曲振动峰以及1 051 cm-1处伯醇的C—O的伸缩振动峰都明显减弱。太空诱变育种有利于筛选出活性成分含量提高的射干新品种。预期太空射干的药效比地面组的有所增强,有待于深入研究来证实。     

北五味子中一种新的莽草酸衍生物的分离纯化及其含量测定

从北五味子中提取分离得到一种新的莽草酸衍生物, 经一维、二维核磁共振波谱(1D NMR, HMQC, HMBC)等数据解析, 鉴定为莽草酸正丁酯. 并采用ZORBAX Extend C18柱, 以乙腈-0.05%磷酸为流动相进行梯度洗脱, 检测波长为215 nm, 流速1.0 mL/min, 建立了北五味子中莽草酸正丁酯含量的高效液相色谱分析方法. 结果表明, 莽草酸正丁酯在2~65 μg/mL浓度范围内线性关系良好, 相关系数r=0.9999, 平均回收率为98.25%, 相对标准偏差(RSD)为1.55%, 表明本法简单准确, 重复性好.     

人参与附子、黄连配伍的HPLC-ESI-MS研究及抗氧化活性测定

采用高效液相色谱与电喷雾质谱联用技术(HPLC-ESI-MS)对不同比例的人参与附子或黄连的水煎液、药渣和沉淀进行研究, 共鉴定了8种人参皂苷, 发现加入附子或黄连后, 溶液中人参皂苷含量明显减少, 进一步研究证明附子或黄连中的某些成分阻止了皂苷的溶出; 同时以抗坏血酸作对照, 应用铁离子还原/抗氧化能力测定法(FRAP)测定了人参单煎液及人参与附子、黄连共煎液中正丁醇提取物和水提取物的抗氧化活性. 结果证明, 共煎液中正丁醇提取物的抗氧化活性高于人参单煎液, 同时也高于人参与附子或黄连单煎混合液的抗氧化活性, 但水提取物抗氧化活性的变化规律有所不同, 这可能与煎煮过程中物质之间的相互作用有关.

建立了用高效液相色谱法测定五味子和含五味子的制剂中五味子乙素的流动相体系。用Shim-pack VP-ODS (250 mm×4.6 mm,5 μm)色谱柱,在柱温30 ℃、检测波长285 nm、流速1.0 mL/min的条件下,用不同的流动相组成及其不同比例研究了五味子提取液中3种木脂素(五味子乙素、安五脂素和五味子甲素)的保留时间及其分离情况,从中选择测定五味子乙素的最佳流动相体系。结果表明,在甲醇-水、甲醇-冰醋酸-水的流动相体系中,安五脂素和五味子乙素很难完全分离;而在乙腈-甲醇-水和乙腈-冰醋酸-水流动相体系中,3种木脂素可很好地分离。以乙腈-甲醇-水(体积比为17:58:25)为流动相测定五味子和护肝片中3种木脂素的含量,相对标准偏差(n4)为0.95%～5.8%,平均加标回收率为94.50%～105.6%。将该流动相体系用于供试品中3种木脂素含量的测定,分离效果好,结果令人满意。     

Iridal-Type Triterpenoids Displaying Human Neutrophil Elastase Inhibition and Anti-Inflammatory Effects from Belamcanda chinensis

The aim of this study is to explore anti-inflammatory phytochemicals from B. chinensis based on the inhibition of pro-inflammatory enzyme, human neutrophil elastase (HNE) and anti-inflammatory activities in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage. Three stereoisomers of iridal-type triterpenoids (1–3) were isolated from the roots of B. chinensis and their stereochemistries were completely identified by NOESY spectra. These compounds were confirmed as reversible noncompetitive inhibitors against HNE with IC₅₀ values of 6.8–27.0 µM. The binding affinity experiment proved that iridal-type triterpenoids had only a single binding site to the HNE enzyme. Among them, isoiridogermanal (1) and iridobelamal A (2) displayed significant anti-inflammatory effects by suppressing the expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as iNOS, IL-1β, and TNF-α through the NF-κB pathway in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells. This is the first report that iridal-type triterpenoids are considered responsible phytochemicals for anti-inflammatory effects of B. chinensis.     

Study on the Dynamic Difference between Single and Mixed Residues of Three Neonicotinoids in Brassica chinensis L.

Multiple insecticides’ residues after the mixed application of several neonicotinoids cause combined pollution and bring new challenges to food safety and pest control during agricultural production. In this study, three neonicotinoid insecticides, namely imidacloprid (IMI), acetamiprid (ACE), and thiamethoxam (TMX), were mixed and evenly sprayed on Brassica chinensis L. in the field. Then, the insecticides’ residues were dynamically monitored to determine the differences in their rates of dissipation and final residues after 10 days. The results showed that the dissipation kinetics of neonicotinoids still conformed to the first-order kinetic model for binary or ternary application of neonicotinoid mixtures, with all determination coefficients (R²) being above 0.9 and the dissipation half-life (DT₅₀) being 2.87–6.74 d. For treatment groups with five times the recommended dosages (IMI 300 g·hm⁻², ACE 900 g·hm⁻², and TMX 600 g·hm⁻²), mixed insecticides had a slower dissipation rate, and the DT₅₀ values of mixtures were longer than those of single insecticides. Moreover, the final insecticide residues with mixed application were higher than those of single compounds at 10 d after spraying. Thus, mixed applications of neonicotinoids may increase food safety risks as they increase the final insecticide residues in Brassica chinensis L., and care should therefore be taken when considering the combined use of such compounds.
