Development and Evaluation of Oleanolic Acid Dosage Forms and Its Derivatives.

Oleanolic acid is a pentacyclic triterpenoid compound that exists widely in medicinal herbs and other plants. Because of the extensive pharmacological activity, oleanolic acid has attracted more and more attention. However, the structural characteristics of oleanolic acid prevent it from being directly made into new drugs, which limits the application of oleanolic acid.

Primary Studies on Construction and Evaluation of Ion-Sensitive in situ Gel Loaded with Paeonol-Solid Lipid Nanoparticles for Intranasal Drug Delivery.

Background: Paeonol (PAE) is a potential central neuroprotective agent with poor water solubility and rapid metabolism in vivo. The key to improve the clinical application of PAE in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases is to improve the brain delivery of it. The purpose of this study was to construct a paeonol-solid lipid nanoparticles-in situ gel (PAE-SLNs-ISG) drug delivery system based on nose-brain transport pathway.

High-throughput phenotyping accelerates the dissection of the dynamic genetic architecture of plant growth and yield improvement in rapeseed.

Rapeseed is the second most important oil crop species and is widely cultivated worldwide. However, overcoming the 'phenotyping bottleneck' has remained a significant challenge. A clear goal of high-throughput phenotyping is to bridge the gap between genomics and phenomics.

A comprehensive and precise set of intervarietal substitution lines to identify candidate genes and quantitative trait loci in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.).

A set of intervarietal substitution lines were developed in rapeseed by recurrent backcrossing and marker-assisted selection and employed for mapping both qualitative and quantitative traits. Intervarietal substitution lines (ISLs) may be assembled into advanced secondary mapping populations that have remarkable potential for resolving trait loci and mapping candidate genes. To facilitate the identification of important genes in oilseed rape (canola, Brassica napus), we developed 89 ISLs using an elite cultivar 'Zhongyou 821' (ZY821) as the recipient and a re-synthesized line 'No.
