Six compounds were isolated from Rhizoma Heterosmilacis Japonicae. They were identified as beta-sitosterol (I) dau-costerol (II),3,3',5,5'-tetrahydroxy-4'-methoxystilbene (III), naringenin (IV), alpha-L-butylsorbopyranoside (V) and macrozamin (VI). The compounds III, IV, V and VI were isolated from this genus for the first time.

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common malignant tumors among women worldwide and can be treated using various methods; however, side effects of these treatments cannot be ignored. Increasing evidence indicates that compound kushen injection (CKI) can be used to treat BC. However, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is characterized by "multi-components" and "multi-targets", which make it challenging to clarify the potential therapeutic mechanisms of CKI on BC.

Compound Kushen Injection (CKI) is a herbal formulation extracted from Kushen (Radix Sophorae Flavescentis) and Baituling (Rhizoma Heterosmilacis Yunnanensis). Clinically, it is used as the adjuvant treatment of cancer. However, with the increased application, the cases of immediate hypersensitivity reactions (IHRs) also gradually rise.

This study is to develop an HPLC method for the simultaneous determination of (-)-epicatechin, 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid, neoisoastilbin, astilbin, neoisoastilbin, isoastilbin and engeletin in Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma. Samples of Smilacis Glabrae Rhizoma, Heterosmilacis Chinensis Rhizoma and Heterosmilacis Yunnanensis Rhizoma were separated on an Agilent Zorbax SB-C18 column with gradient elution of acetonitrile-0.05% phosphoric acid at a flow rate of 1.

A rapid NIRS method for determination of macrozamin in Heterosmilacis japonicae rhizoma (HJR), and the total content of oxymatrine and matrine (OMT + MT) as well as the total content of oxysophocarpine and sophocarpine (OSC + SC) in sophorae flavescens radix (SFR) was developed to explore the application feasibility of NIRS for the quality assurance system of Chinese patent drugs. The contents of macrozamin in HJR samples, and OMT + MT and OSC + SC in SFR samples were determined by HPLC as reference values. The NIR spectra of the samples were measured in a diffused reflection mode.

[Pharmacokinetic of four alkaloids of Yanshu injection in Beagel dogs].

Zhongguo Zhong Yao Za Zhi

June 2012

Department of Pharmacology of Chinese Materia Medica, China Pharmaceutical University, Nanjing 210009, China.

Objective: For studying the pharmacokinetic of Yanshu injections in Beagel dogs, a sensitive and reproducible LC-MS method for quantitative determination of matrine, oxymatrine, sophocarpine and oxysophocarpine in dog's plasma were developed and validated using monocrotaline as an internal standard after iv of Yanshu injections (Sophorae Flavescentis Radix and Heterosmilacis Japonicae Rhizoma).

Method: The separation of plasma samples was performed on a CN column by isocratic elution with methanol-10 mmol x L(-1) NH4Ac-0.02% HCOOH-H2O 90:10 as the mobile phase.
