1.Research advances in brain-targeted nanoscale drug delivery system.
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2013;48(10):1532-43
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) exerts its central nervous system (CNS) protective function as it hinders the delivery of diagnostic and therapeutic agents to the brain. With the development of nanotechnology during the last thirty years, the nanocarriers for delivering drugs make it possible to transport drugs across the BBB. The brain-targeted drug delivery system usually consists of two parts: nanocarriers and brain-targeted strategies. In this review, several kinds of nanocarriers are introduced for brain-targeted drug delivery. We focus on several possible strategies for brain-targeting and comment on their advantages and disadvantages in application.

Objective To investigate the transfection of human papilloma virus types 16E6 gene on the proliferation and apoptosis of cervical carcinoma cell line C33A. MethodsPlasmid pcDNA3-HPV16E6 was stably transfected into C33A cells by liposome, and the expression of HPV16E6 mRNA and protein in the transfected cells, the cells transfected with blank vector and the cells without transfection were identified by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. The growth, proliferation and cell cycles of the 3 kinds of C33A cells were by cell growth curve plotting and flow cytometry analysis. ResultsC33A cells were transfected stably by liposome with plasmid pcDNA3-HPV16E6 (C33A-E6 cells)and plasmid pcDNA3 (C33A-P cells). The growth of C33A-E6 cells was more rapid than those of C33A-P and C33A cells (P0.05). ConclusionHPV16E6 is involved in the cell cycle probably through some signal pathways, and promotes cell division and proliferation of C33A cells.

Objective To retrospectively compare the clinical results of locking plate of proximal humerus (LPPH) and traditional AO plates in treatment of proximal humerus fractures in aged osteoporotic population. Methods From July 2002 to May 2005, 37 old osteoporotic patients with humerus fractures were treated with LPPH and traditional AO plates respectively in our department. The results were compared retrospectively. Results Follow-ups were conducted six weeks, 12 weeks and one year postoperatively to assess shoulder scores, bone healing and necrosis of humerus head. Comparison showed that the results for LPPH group were statistically better than those for traditional AO plate group in rate of implant loosening and SPADI (shoulder pain and disability index) scores. Conclusion LPPH has an obvious advantage over traditional AO plate in treatment of proximal humerus fractures in aged osteoporotic people.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expressions of glucose transporter protein-1 ,vascular endothelial growth factor in pancreatic cancer and the clinical indicators.Methods Im-munohistochemical staining was done in glucose transporter protein-1,vascular endothelial growth factor in pancreatic cancer and normal pancreas tissues.Results Glucose transporter protein-1,vascular endothelial growth factor of pancreatic cancer were expressed higher than that in normal tissue.The difference was statistically significant(P < 0.05).VEGF expression was related with lymph node metastasis,not with tumor grade,clinical stage(P<0.05).Glut-1 expression was related with tumor size,clinical stage and lymph node metastasis,not with pathological grading(P< 0.05).Conclusions Glucose transporter protein-1 ,vascular endothelial growth factor in pancreatic cancer are highly expressed .Both of them may participate in occurrence and development in pancreatic cancer.

Lipoxygenase(LO) pathway had been implicated in the pathogenesis of such cardiovascular diseases as hypertension, atherosclerosis, restenosis, and palys and important role in the development of these disease. LO inhibitiors could suppress vascular contractile responses significantly, reduce blood pressure, inhibit migration of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMC), attenuate neointimal thickening in the injuried arteries and generation reactive oxygen species(ROS), block monocyte binding to VSMC, etc. The effects of LO inhibitors were associated with marked inhibition of MAPK pathway. Therefore, inhibition of LO pathway may provide a new strategy for preventing and treating above diseases, suggesting that LO mat be a novel taget for such purposes.

Objective To evaluate the performance of the target controlled infusion(TCI) system with midazolam during combined spinal and epidural anesthesia. Methods Twenty female patients scheduled for selective lower abdominal or pelvic surgery under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia were enrolled in this study. They use combined spinal and epidural anesthesia with target controlled infusion of midazolam sedation. Midazolam plasma concentration was set at 100ng/ml. Blood pressure,heart rate, pulse oxygen saturation were monitored during anesthesia and operation. We use BIS as a pharmacodynamic value of midazolam sedation. Blood samples were taken from radial arterial for analysis of plasma midazolam concentration during infusion. Midazolam plasma concentration were tested by high performance liquid chromatography. Results MDPE of target controlled infusion with midazolam with Burher parameters was 38.7%, MDAPE was 38.7%,and wobble is 24.9% in Chinese female patients. Conclusions Burher parameters of midazolam target controlled infusion system should be correct, then can be used for our country female patients conscious sedation accurately.

Objective To study perioperative changes in serum levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and IL-10 in orthotopic liver transplantation without veno-venous bypass. Methods Sixteen patients with terminal liver disease underwent orthotopic liver transplantation under general anesthesia. Samples from arterial blood were obtained at beginning of surgery, before the anhepatic phase, 5min before recirculation, 15min and 60min after recirculation, 4h and 24h after operation, respectively. Serum levels of TNF-?, IL-6 and IL-10 were measured by ELISA. Results TNF-? and IL-6 concentrations were kept at a low level before operation, while IL-10 was not detected. The concentrations of IL-6 and IL-10 rose during the anhepatic phase (P

Objective To investigate the effects of the cognitive behavior therapy on anxiety for postoperative patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant cancer in surgery intensive care unit. Methods A total of 82 patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant tumor who accept surgery from January 2014 to September 2016 were chosen and averagely divided into intervention group with cognitive behavior therapy based on control group and control group taking routine nursing and general psychological care by random number table in SICU. The application of self-evaluation of anxiety scale (SAS) evaluation of anxiety level before and after the intervention in patients with and without improvement, and compare the two groups of stay in SICU patients satisfaction evaluation intervention is effective. Results Compared with control group, the cognitive behavioral therapy, after intervention group patients with SAS scoring[(50.56 ± 6.52) ]points SAS scores than the control group [(57.51 ± 6.11)] points decrease, the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 01);intervention group check in SICU satisfaction (97.6%,40/41) also better than the control group (90.2%, 37/41), the difference was statistically significant (χ2=7.527, P < 0.05). Conclusion cognitive behavioral therapy can effectively reduce the anxiety of postoperative patients with oral and maxillofacial malignant cancer in SICU, and effectively improve the comfort level and satisfaction in SICU.

The significance of the blood glutathion reductase activity coeff i-.cient (BGR-AC) as the guide line to assess riboflavin status in 28 radar operators was studied by comparing with the amount of their urinary excreted riboflavin.The 28 subjects were randomized into 4 groups and the riboflavin intake was 0.53.mg,1.0 mg,2.0 mg,and 3.0 mg respectively.It was found that there was a significant negative correlation between BGR-AC and urinary excretion of riboflavin,and with the incrase of riboflavin intake,there was a significant decrease of BGR-AC in Groups Ⅰ,Ⅱ,and Ⅲ though the difference between Group Ⅲ and Group Ⅳ was insigificant.On the basis of the BGR-AC values of the 4 groups,an exponential equation was established which tells the riboflavin requirement of radar operators.It is defined that when BGR-AC is smaller than equal to 1.24,it is normal and when it is larger than 1.24,it means abnormal riboflavin status of the individual.
