The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was 30 ℃ and the detection wavelengths were 203 nm and 237 nm, respectively. The linear ranges were 0.700,0—7.000,0 μg for R1(r=1.000,0), 0.751,1— 7.511,4 μg for Rg1(r=1.000,0), 0.677,2—6.771,6 μg for Re(r=1.000,0), 0.733,9—7.339,1 μg for Rb1(r= 1.000,0), and 0.540,0—5.399,8 μg for ammonium glycyrrhizinate(r=0.999,9), respectively. In addition, their average recoveries were 100.28%, 105.83%, 104.09%, 99.36% and 98.54%, respectively. The relative standard deviations(RSDs) of precision, reproducibility and recovery were all less than 1.5%. The results indicate that the method is simple, accurate and reproducible so that it can be used for the simultaneous determination of the five saponins in Chinese patent medicines containing the three kinds of herbs.展开更多

The number and dissociation constant of β receptor were studied by using receptor autoradiography to observe the changes in β receptor and the effects of Radix Ginseng Rubra on cAMP in experimental ischemic myocardium. The result showed that the number of binding site in simple ligation group (B max =0.279) was obviously higher than that in sham operation group (B max =0.093) and the dissociation constant of simple ligation group (Kd=12.431) was higher than that of sham operation group (k d=1.319). There was a significant difference between the two groups ( P <0.05). It proved that the number of β receptor was increased and the activity was elevated in myocardial cell membranes after ligation of LAD. The myocardial cAMP level in simple ligation group (1293.96±519.36)×10 -3 nmol/g was much higher than that in sham operation group (774.44±210.55)×10 -3 nmol/g ; but the level of cAMP in ligation group after receiving Radix Ginseng Rubra treatment (805.02±362.48 pm/g) was obviously lower than that in simple ligation group ( P <0.01), which was close to the result of sham operation. The results indicated that Radix Ginseng Rubra could decrease the cAMP level in ischemic myocardium.展开更多
