OBJECTIVE: To study the feasibility of using biodegradable chitosan nanoparticles as new type carriers for controlled GM-CSF delivery system. METHODS: GM-CSF and BSA loaded chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ion cross linking method using tripolyphosphate as cross-linking agent with its morphology observed by transmission electron microscope. The encapsulating efficiencies of GM-CSF and BSA were determined respectively by fluorescence scanning and ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The in vitro drug release properties of chitosan nanoparticles were studied as well. RESULTS: Morphologically, the nanoparticles were spherical with mean particle size of 201nm. The encapsulating efficiencies of GM-CSF and BSA were 62.1% and 58.5%, respectively, and their in vitro accumulative drug release rates on the 3rd day were 69% and 82% respectively. CONCLUSION: The ion cross linking method is fit for the preparation of GM-CSF loaded chitosan nanoparticles.

OBJECTIVE: To prepare 5-fluorouracil(5-Fu) microemulsion and to investigate the intestinal absorption of 5-Fu microemulsion in rats. METHODS: The formulation of 5-Fu microemulsion was optimzied using pseudo-ternary phase diagrams with isopropyl myristate (IPM) as oil phase and ODO-L as surfactant; the intestinal absorption ex vivo model was prepared using everted intestinal sac method to investigate the absorption sites and absorption efficiency of 5-Fu microemulsion in rats. RESULTS: IPM/ODO-L/EtOH/H2O (Km=1∶2) was selected as the delivery system of 5-Fu; as compared with 5-Fu solution, the intestinal absorption of 5-Fu microemulsion was significantly improved and the middle and lower segments of rat's intestine were the best sbsorption sites for 5-Fu microemulsion and the accumulative aborption rates of 5-Fu microemulsion at 90 min was 3-fold that of 5-Fu solution. CONCLUSION: The prepared 5-Fu microemulsion is stable in quality and well-absorbed in rats' intestine.

Objective In order to study the application of macroporous resins and so on to the purified active components of Euphorbia humifusa、Leaves of Flos Lonicerae、Chrysanthemum morifolium,adsorption and separation properties for 3 types of macroporous resins and polyamide were investigated.Methods The total flavone was used as the evaluating criteria,we selected suitable macroporous resins and studied optimum technological parameters of the adsorption and elution.Spectrophotometry was used for the determination of total flavone.Results The suitable macroporous resins which were used to the purified active components of traditional Chinese medicine were D101 and DA201 and DM301 for Euphorbia humifusa、DA201 for Leaves of Flos Lonicerae、D101 and DA201 and DM301 for Chrysanthemum morifolium,The concentration of the sample of Euphorbia humifusa for DA201 and D101 were 0.49～1.47 and 0.42～1.31 mg/ml.The concentration of the sample of Leaves of Flos Lonicerae for DA201 was 1.03～2.07 mg/ml.The concentration of the sample of Chrysanthemum morifolium for DA201 and D101 was 0.50～1.00 and 0.71～1.99 mg.ml.In the adsorption course,appeared leaking were 8 and 10、2、2 and 1 BV respectively.In the elution course,when the alcohol concentrations were 20%、30%、40% and 20%、30%、40%;10%、20%、30%;30%、40%、50% and 20%、30%、40%;respectively,the total flavone content in the elution solutions was higher.The influence of temperature to DA201 and D101 adsorpting total flavone for Euphorbia humifusa was not great.But the influence of temperature to DA201 and D101 adsorpting total flavone for Leaves of Flos Lonicerae and Chrysanthemum morifolium were certain degree.Conclusions It is obviously different to refine the total flavone active components of traditional Chinese medicine,while using 3 types of macroporous resins and polyamide.

Objective To detect the infection of human papillomavirus (HPV)in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)and explore the relationship between HPV infection and clinicopathological features.Methods HPV detection and genotyping in 156 cases of NSCLC were performed using a new liquid chip based on Luminex.Patient clinical characteristics were also recorded,and the relationship between HPV infection and clinicopathological features was studied.Results Of the 156 tumor-DNA samples tested,40 (25.6%)cases showed presence of HPV-DNA,of which 37 cases were of a high-risk HPV type (16,18,33, 58).The differences were statistically significant between the HPV-positive and HPV-negative groups in gender (χ2 =4.387,P =0.036),smoking (χ2 =8.130,P =0.004),histologic type (χ2 =4.075,P =0.044)and lymph node metastasis (χ2 =7.082,P =0.008).The differences were not statistically significant between the HPV-positive and HPV-negative groups in age (χ2 =0.013,P =0.910),differentiated degree (χ2 =1.727, P =0.189),clinical stages (χ2 =0.179,P =0.672),distant metastasis (χ2 =3.012,P =0.083).Logistic regression analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis alone was an independent predictive factor of HPV infection in NSCLC (OR =0.384,95%CI:0.153-0.967,P =0.042),and gender (OR =1.402,95%CI:0.522-3.769,P =0.503),smoking (OR =0.506,95%CI:0.194-1.322,P =0.506),histologic type (OR =0.393,95%CI:0.133-0.161,P =0.091)were not independent predictive factors of HPV infection. Conclusion The infection of HPV presents in part of Chinese NSCLC patients,and HPV infection may be connected with occurrence and development of lung cancer.

ObjectiveTo determine the role of mammary ductoscopy in the evaluation and intraductal therapy for nipple discharge.MethodsIn this study 3280 patients with nipple discharge underwent mammary ductoscopy. Ductoscopy revealed space occupying lesions in 1018 patients who subsequently underwent surgery; 2260 patients with no-space occupying lesion underwent ductoscopically guided duct lavage.ResultsSpace occupying lesion was often seen in patients with bloody discharge,single duct nipple discharge,discharge in unilateral breast and lesions located in general or levelⅠ - Ⅱ duct.Non-bloody discharge,multiple duct with nipple discharge and bilateral breast involved and lesions at multi-level ducts were common in patients with no-space occupying lesions. Ductoscopically guided duct lavage was curative in 88.72％ among 2260 cases undergoing lavage.ConclusionsSpace occupying lesion should be suspected in patients with bloody discharge,single duct nipple discharge and unilateral breast involving lesion and lesions located in the general or level Ⅰ - Ⅱ duct system;Mammary ductoscopy is useful tool in the intraductal therapy for non-space occupying lesions.
