The content of medium-weight molecules (MWM) in the plasma was evaluated by the screening method in 280 patients with prevalent infectious diseases (viral hepatitides A, B, and C, influenza, acute dysentery, alimentary toxicoinfections, and tonsillitis). Control group consisted of 70 donors. The maximum levels of MWM were observed at the peak of disease. In viral infections the increase in the level of MWM was longer. The values of MWM depended on the disease severity and presence of the intoxication syndrome. Plasma concentration of MWM correlated with the presence of the leading clinical syndromes in infectious diseases. Measurement of MWM level in the plasma of infectious patients can be used as a criterion of recovery and a prognostic and additional diagnostic test.

The fruits of Paulownia catalpifolia Gong Tong are used as a Chinese folk herbal medicine for the treatment of enteritis, tonsillitis, bronchitis, and dysentery, etc. Our previous study has identified new C-geranylated flavanones with obvious anti-proliferative effects in lung cancer A549 cells. In the present study, a new C-geranylated flavone, paucatalinone C (1) and five known C-geranylated flavanones (2-6) were isolated. In addition, a total of 34 C-geranylated flavonoids were detected by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS coupling techniques from the CH2Cl2 extract of P. catalpifolia. Futhermore, anti-aging effects of isolated compounds were evaluated in vitro with premature senescent 2BS cells induced by H2O2. Phytochemical results indicated that P. catalpifolia was a natural resource of abundant C-geranylated flavonoids. Diplacone (3) and paucatalinone A (5) were the potent anti-aging agents in the premature senescent 2BS cells induced by H2O2 and the C-geranyl substituent may be an important factor because of its lipophilic character.
