China Pharmacy 2017;28(14):1928-1931
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the general patterns and characteristics of drug-induced lupus (DIL) induced by inflix-imab,and to provide reference for the safety of drug use. METHODS:Usinginfiximab,lupusas searching words,inflix-imab-induced DIL literatures included in CJFD,VIP and PubMed from Jan. 2002 to Jun. 2016 were retrieved and analyzed. RE-SULTS:Totally 30 effective literatures were retrieved,involving 31 DIL patients,there were 8 male cases (25.81%) and 23 fe-male cases(74.19%);17 patients aged more than 50(54.84%). 20 cases occurred within 5-24 weeks(64.51%). 16 patients re-ceived infliximab alone (51.61%). Main clinical manifestations were skin rash or photosensitivie enteritig (15 cases),joint pain (16 cases,multiple arthritis and synovitis)and fever(12 cases). 5 patients suffered from 3 above symptoms simultaneously. Labo-ratory examination mainly manifested as antinuclear antibody,double stranded DNA antibody and anti-histone antibody positive. Thirty patients with DIL received drug withdrawal or steroid hormones treatment,among which the symptoms of 26 patients disap-peared after drug withdrawal or treatment within 6 months,and 1 patient deteriorated. CONCLUSIONS:DIL-induced by inflix-imab invovle patients'age and gender,disease types,family history and other factors. Clinicians should be aware of rules and char-acteristics of DIL induced by infliximab,and tighten drug use monitoring to reduce ADR.

Objective To investigate the functional features of resveratrol on vasodilatation of abdominal aorta in rat and its underlying mechanism. Methods Isolated aortic ring was perfused and the tension of the vessel was measured. Results Resveratrol showed a dose-dependent relaxant effect on rat aorta at 4?10 -9~4?10 -5mol/L. At the concentration of 4?10 -5mol/L, the effect was attenuated by (74.9?1.9)% in the endothelium removal group, and it was significantly different from the control group (P0.05). At the concentration of 7?10 -5mol/L, resveratrol showed an relaxant effect on de-endothelium vessels. Conclusion Resveratrol relaxes the aorta in both endothelium dependent and independent manner. In the endothelium-dependent manner, the mechanism of vasodilatation may be associated with NO system and KATP channel, while in the endothelium-independent manner effect of resveratrol might be a direct one.

In this study, the embryological characters of Pterocypsela formosana (Asteraceae) were investigated with the traditional paraffin section methods. The anther has 4 sporangiates, the anther wall development follows the dicotyledonous type and comprises of an epidermis, endothelium, a middle layer and a single-layered tapetum, the tapetum belongs to glandular type. Meiosis of the microspore mother cells is of the simultaneous type, for the formation of mostly tetrahedral tetrad, the mature pollen grains are 2 celled. The ovary is bicarpellate, unilocular, one ovule and basal placenta, the ovule is unitegmic, tenuinucellate, inverted campylotropous and with developed endothelium, archesporial cell of megaspore differentiates immediately below the nucellar epidermis and functions as megasporocyte after development and belongs to tenuinucellate ovule type. The megasporocyte undergoes meitotic to form a liner tetrad, only one chalazal megaspore becomes the functional megaspore which forms female gametophyte including 7-celled and 8-nucleated after three successive mitosis, the female gametophyte is of the Polygonum type. Two polar nuclei melt into a secondary nuclei before fertilization, the chalazal antipodal cells are ephemeral and degenerate shortly after forming. Fertilization is porogamous and belongs to premitotic type of syngamy. The division of the primary endosperm nucleus is earlier than the zygote, the endosperm is of the nuclear type with the presence of haustoria, and the embryogeny belongs to asterad type chicory variant. The developed suspensor on early stage has important significance to the embryo development.

This study was aimed to explore the influence of extreme environment changes on the lung immune function in rats. Artificial climate system was used to simulate six extreme weathers, which were the sudden temperature increase (ZS), sudden temperature drop (ZJ), continuous high temperature (CG), continuous low temperature (CD), high temperature and high humidity (GWGS), normal temperature and high humidity (CWGS). And then, the method of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was adopted to detect bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and related immune substances in lung tissues. The results showed there was significant difference of ZJ on IL-10 (P<0.05). There were significant differences of CG, CD, GWGS, and CWGS on IL-6, INF-γ and sIgA (P<0.05). Contents of the GWGS group and CWGS group were higher than that of the CG group and CD group. There was very significant difference on IL-10 in the CD group (P<0.01). It was concluded that the extreme environment changes had different influence on body’s immune. And different intervention factors cause the body’s immune factors to response accordingly.

AIM: The present study was to investigate the time course of ?-adrenoceptor desensitization and changes in the calcium transient in rat ventricular myocytes following chronic hypoxia. METHODS: With the spectrofluorometric method, the intracellular calcium( i) transient and its response to ?-adrenoceptor stimulation were determined in the single right ventricular myocytes, loaded with Fura-2.RESULTS: After 2-3 weeks of chronic hypoxia, the amplitudes of electrically induced i transient and caffeine-induced i transient started to decrease and the duration of i transient prolonged. The enhanced electrically induced i transient evoked by isoprotrenol was also decreased. After 3 or 4 weeks of chronic hypoxia, these changes aggravated gradually. After 8 weeks of chronic hypoxia, the changes of all these parameters were convalescent, meanwhile there was no significant difference compared with that of 4 weeks group. CONCLUSIONS: After 2-4 weeks of chronic hypoxia, the ?-adrenoceptor desensitization occurs, the underlying mechanism is related to the decreased function of L-type of calcium channel, ryanodine receptor-operated calcium channel and calcium ATPase, which is responsible for the decreased cardiac functionl. At 8 weeks of hypoxia, the heart is in adaptation and compensatory process.
