A simple, reliable and accurate method for the simultaneous separation and determination of 10 active components (psoralen, isopsoralen, emodin, oleanolic acid, stachydrine hydrochloride, ammonium glycyrrhizinate, glycyrrhizinate, schizandrol, imperatorin and isoimperatorin) in traditional Chinese medicine "YIGONG" capsule was developed using reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) coupled with diode array detection. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Eurospher C(18) column (250 mm x 4.6 mm i.d. with 5.0 microm particle size) with a acetonitrile-water gradient containing 0.5% (v/v) aqueous phosphoric acid as mobile phase. Two detection wavelengths (210 and 250 nm) were utilized for the quantitative analysis due to the different UV spectra of these components. Good linear behaviors over the investigated concentration ranges were observed with the values of R(2) higher than 0.999 for all the analytes. The recoveries, measured at three concentration levels, varied from 95.0 to 105.3%. The validated method was successfully applied to the simultaneously determination of these active components in "YIGONG" capsule from different production batches.

Objective: For patients with contraindications to hormone therapy, the absence of effective treatments for ovarian dysfunction post chemotherapy represents a critical issue requiring resolution. Local administration of mitochondria may enhance ovarian function in premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) by ameliorating diminished mitochondrial activity. Nevertheless, there is a paucity of literature on the efficacy of mitochondrial transplantation through intravenous injection, a less invasive and more convenient method than local injection, for the improvement of ovarian function in POI following chemotherapy.

Measuring lower extremity impact acceleration is a common strategy to identify runners with increased injury risk. However, existing axial peak tibial acceleration (PTA) thresholds for determining high-impact runners typically rely on small samples or fixed running speeds. This study aimed to describe the distribution of axial PTA among runners at their preferred running speed, determine an appropriate adjustment for investigating impact magnitude at different speeds, and compare biomechanics between runners classified by impact magnitude.

Vasoactive signaling from astrocytes is an important contributor to the neurovascular coupling (NVC), which aims at providing energy to neurons during brain activation by increasing blood perfusion in the surrounding vasculature. Pharmacological manipulations have been previously combined with experimental techniques (e.g.
