SummaryGlaucocalyxin A is a new diterpenoid isolated from the ethereal extract of the leaves of Rabdosia japonica (Burm f) Hara var glaucocalyx (Maxim) Hara (Labiatae) collected in the northeastern China. When it was incubated with washed rabbit platelets, glaucocalyxin A inhibited ADP- or arachidonic acid-induced platelet aggregation with IC50 values of 4.4 μmol/1, 14.1 μmol/1 respectively. Glaucocalyxin A also inhibited PAF-induced aggregation of rabbit platelets which were refractory to ADP and arachidonic acid with an IC50 value of 13.7 μmol/1. Analysis of [3H]-PAF binding showed that glaucocalyxin A prevented [3H]-PAF binding to intact washed rabbit platelets with an IC50 value of 8.16 μmol/1, which was consistent with its inhibition of PAF-induced platelet aggregation.

Larval growth and settlement rates are important larval behaviors for larval protections. The variability of larval growthsettlement rates and physical conditions for 2006-2012 and in the future with potential climate changes was studied using the coupling ROMS-IMBs, and new temperature and current indexes. Forty-four experimental cases were conducted for larval growth patterns and release mechanisms, showing the spatial, seasonal, annual, and climatic variations of larval growthsettlement rates and physical conditions, demonstrating that the slight different larval temperature-adaption and larval release strategies made difference in larval growth-settlement rates, and displaying that larval growth and settlement rates highly depended upon physical conditions and were vulnerable to climate changes.
