Objective: To explore the relationship between the laccase activity and growth of Ganoderma spp.,to screen the highproducing laccase strains.

Methods: The mycelium was cultured in PDA solid medium,and the laccase activity was measured by ABTS+method. The content of polysaccharide was determined by phenol sulfuric acid method.

Results: Ganoderma gibbosum grew more rapidly in the early stage,and the laccase activity reached maximum( 1 476. 64 U/g) in the 4th day,which was 11. 37 times larger than that of sweet Ganoderma lucidum. Ganoderma gibbosum had the significant advantage after a comprehensive analysis. The polysaccharide content of Ganoderma lucidum of Shinshu was lower; the growth rate of Ganoderma lucidum strain S3 was stable, and the content of polysaccharide was medium.

Conclusion: There are some differences in the growth rate of Ganoderma spp., and there is a certain correlation between the laccase activity and growth. Ganoderma gibbosum is the highest-producing laccase strain among the screening strains.

Ojective: To compare the effects of antis egg-case before and after preparing in reproducing kidney-Yang deficiency model rats,and to explore the best medicinal part of antis egg-case.

Methods: Divide the rats into nine groups randomly: antis egg-case group, salt fried antis egg-case group, steamed antis egg-case group, eggs from antis egg-case group, eggs from salt fried antis egg-case group, eggs from steamed antis egg-case group, egg shell from antis egg-case group, egg shell from salt fried antis egg-case group, and egg shell from the steamed antis egg-case group. Make kidney-Yang deficient model by giving the rats hydrocortisone. Two weeks later, give the rats treatment for four weeks, compare the effects of antis egg-case by determining the contents of NO,TSH,T3,T4,EPI,NE,17-OH,CORT,T,E2,coefficient of thyroid, body temperature, coefficient of adrenal and kidney, weight and water intake.

Results: Antis egg-case before and after preparing increased the contents of T3,T4,EPI,NE and T, increased weight, body temperature, coefficient of thyroid and adrenal, but reduced the contents of NO and E2,the coefficient of kidney and water intake were also decreased.

Conclusion: The medicinal materials came from different medicinal parts of antis egg-case before and after preparing can treat the symptoms of kidney-Yang in different degrees. The effects of antis egg-case to treat kidney-Yang deficient has been strengthened after preparing, salt fried antis egg-case and eggs from salt fried antis egg-case played the more important role.

Objective: To investigate the anti-pulmonary fibrosis effect and the possible molecular mechanism of the Bletilla striata polysaccharide.

Methods: Polysaccharide was prepared by water reflux extraction plus ethanol precipitation method, and following deproteinization process by Sevage method. Rat silicosis model was established by invasive intratracheal instillation method. The effect and molecular mechanism of the polysaccharide was evaluated by lung indexes, lung pathological change, serum levels of SOD,MDA,NF-κB,IL-1β,PDGF,TGF-β1,TNF-α,HYP were detected, and the contents of CD3~+,CD4~+,CD8~+T lymph cells and CD4~+/ CD8~+ratio were detected by flow cytometry.

Results: Both low( 100 mg / kg) and high( 400 mg / kg) dosage polysaccharide treatment could remarkably elevate the serum SOD level and reduce the MDA,NO level, and effectively reverse the CD4~+/ CD8~+ratio comparing with the model group( P < 0. 01). Except the TNF-α level was significantly lower in the high dosage treatment group, there was no other effect in inflammatory cytokines and HYP content in serum. HE pathological section confirmed that the Bletilla striata polysaccharide treatment group can not effectively prevent lung fibrosis.

Conclusion: The Bletilla striata polysaccharide has remarkable regulation effect on antioxidation system and immune system, but can not effectively prevent lung fibrosis, more effort should be made to study the active antipulmonary fibrosis components of Bletilla striata.

Objective: To investigate typical medicinal plants of Rheum altaicum, Glycyrrhiza uralensis, Ferula sinkiangensis, Paeonia sinjiangensis, Ephedra equisetina, and Origanum vulgare in Altay region of Xinjiang, and to clarify their current existing situation under natural condition.

Methods: Based on the 30 sample plots, ecological methods were used for investigating the community structure and species diversity of local medicinal plants.

Results: 39 species belonging to 20 families,36 genera were recorded in the area. Xerophytic shrubs, half shrubs and herbs were dominant plants. The important values of six typical medicinal plants were 0. 32,0. 37,0. 42,0. 50,0. 49 and 0. 34,respectively. Six indexes of species diversity were generally low( 0. 63 ~ 0. 80),in which the species diversity indexes of Paeonia sinjiangensis, Ferula sinkiangensis, and Rheum altaicum were the highest( 0. 80,0. 80 and 0. 76),the species diversity indexes of Ephedra equisetina and Origanum vulgare were lower( 0. 74 and 0. 64),and the species diversity index of Glycyrrhiza uralensis was the lowest( 0. 63).

Conclusion: Composition and community structure of medicinal plant species in Altay region of Xinjiang were relatively simple, which need to be protected urgently.

Objective: To analyze the genetic diversity of medicinal fungus of 27 strains of Cordyceps militaris.

Methods: Unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic means( UPGMA) and principal coordinate analysis( PCoA) were used to determine the genetic diversity of 27 Cordyceps militaris strains based on start codon targeted polymorphism( SCoT).

Results: Based on eight informative primers,a total of 59 bands were produced,and 94. 33% of them were polymorphic. The average of polymorphism bands was 6. 875. The results suggested that great genetic diversity existed in Cordyceps militaris. Basically,27 strains were separated into six groups using UPGMA method,while three groups when using PCoA method,which showed that genetic diversity of Cordyceps militaris samples were related to their geographical origins.

Conclusion: SCoT markers are informative and could be used to detect polymorphism for medicinal fungus of Cordyceps militaris strains.

Objective: To investigate the protective effect of sesamin on myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in rats, and to study the possible mechanism.

Methods: 50 SD rats were randomly divided into control group, sham operated group, model group, high-dose sesamin group( 160 mg / kg) and low-dose sesamin group( 80 mg / kg),with 10 rats in each group. Rats in sesamin groups were administered intragastrically with sesamin for 7 d. Then all rats except those in sham operated group were subjected to myocardial ischemia-myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury model by coronary artery ligation for 40 min and subsequent reperfusion for 120 min. Serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ( c TnⅠ) and lactate dehydrogenase( LDH),levels of total antioxidant capacity( TAOC) and nitric oxide( NO) in serum and myocardial tissues,Caspase-3 activity in myocardial tissues were detected by colorimetric assay. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL assay. Phosphorylation level of endothelial nitric oxide synthase( eNOS) and Protein kinase B( Akt), protein expression of superoxide dismutase( SOD) in cardiac tissue were determined by Western blot.

Results: Pretreatment with sesamin significantly ameliorated myocardial injury in rats which induced myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury by reduced levels of serum c TnⅠand LDH( P <0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Supplementation with sesamin resulted in a significant increasing of total antioxidant capacity and NO level in serum and myocardial tissues and cardiomyocyte apoptosis( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01),and remarkable decrease the Caspase-3 activity in myocardial tissues and cardiomyocyte apoptosis( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01). Sesamin significantly up-regulated the protein expression of SOD in cardiac tissues, and the levels of phosphorylated eNOS and Akt increased notably( P < 0. 05 or P < 0. 01).

Conclusion: Pretreatment with sesamin effectively ameliorated myocardial ischemia reperfusion injury in rats, and the mechanism might be related to enhancing its antioxidant capacity and the activation of Akt / eNOS signaling pathway and subsequent increase of NO synthesis and suppression of cardiac myocyte apoptosis.
