In this study, we investigated the pharmacokinetics parameters of SPIO-shRNA dual functional molecular probe and observed the main organ distribution by MRI in vivo. Eighteen New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into three groups and injected intravenously with different doses of SPIO-shRNA molecular probe, respectively. The blood samples were collected to analyze the pharmacokinetic parameters by measuring the iron content at 30 minutes before and after the injection. Twenty-four Kun Ming (KM) mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: the control group was injected intravenously with physiological saline 200 µL per mouse via the tail vein, the other 3 groups were injected intravenously with different doses of SPIO-shRNA molecular probe. MRI observation was performed in 24 hours, and the liver, spleen, kidney, brain and muscle were collected for iron quantification with Prussian blue staining to determine distribution of the SPIO-shRNA molecular probe in the main organ in vivo. Our results suggest that the molecular probe blood half-life is more than 3 hours. The data of MRI suggest the probe was distributed in liver and spleen, and the MRI signal was reduced with the increase in probe's doses (P < 0.05). The results of Prussian blue staining confirmed the results of MRI. Most of the probe could escape the phagocytosis of mononuclear phagocyte system. Our data provide the pharmacokinetic and distribution of SPIO-shRNA molecular probe in organs. Meanwhile, it suggests the choice of the time and dose of probe for MR imaging of tumor in vivo.

OBJECTIVE To explore the safe and effective dose of sirolimus (Rapamycin,Sir) and its effect on seizure comorbidities. METHODS Immature C57BL/6 mice at postnatal 10 d of age were administered with kainic acid(KA) 12.0 mg · kg-1 intraperitoneally by a single injection to induce acute seizure. Sir 0.3, 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg-1 was injected 24 h after seizure every other day until 3 d, 1 week, 3 weeks, 5 weeks and 6 weeks. Western blotting analysis was used to detect the expression and phos?phorylation level of S6 protein and to determine the minimum effective dose of Sir. Effect of the mini?mum effective dose of Sir on cognitive function and body growth was observed by several evaluations. Immunofluorescent intensity of Doublecortin (DCX) immunofluorescent staining was conducted to evaluate the development of neurons in the hippocampus. Morris water maze was used to assess the cognitive function. Tail suspension test, O maze and new object recognition test were used to study the anxiety-like behaviors of mice. RESULTS The result of Western blotting showed that Sir 0.3 mg · kg-1 had no significant effect on the phosphorylation of S6 protein in normal mice or KA mice, whereas 1.0 and 3.0 mg · kg- 1 could significantly inhibit the phosphorylation of S6 protein in KA mice (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg·kg-1 had no obvious effect on DCX-positive cells or body wass. Morris water maze showed that KA-induced seizure resulted in prolonged escape latency and swimming length (P<0.05), and a decreased crossing number of target quadrant (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg·kg-1 significantly reversed the deficit of cognitive function of KA-induced seizure mice (P<0.05), whereas no significant difference was found between Sir group and normal control group. Compared with normal control group, model group showed increased freezing time in tail suspension test (P<0.05), decreased migration length and reten?tion time in open arms in O maze (P<0.05), decreased retention time and touch frequency with new objects, migration length and average speed in new object recognition test (P<0.05). Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 significantly reversed the above anxiety and depression status, whereas no significant difference was found between sirolimus group and normal control group. CONCLUSION Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 inhibits the abnormal activation of mTOR pathway and the formation of epilepsy comorbidity in immature mice. Along with its mild side effect in development, Sir 1.0 mg · kg-1 will be an ideal dose to be used in the treatment of seizure in immature mice.

OBJECTIVE:To better carry out the pharmaceutical services in outpatient pharmacy,and provide reference for the safe,effective and rational drug use of outpatients. METHODS:Questionnaires were designed based on the related information pro-vided by consultation services of outpatient pharmacy in our hospital and referring to the related literatures to randomly select and investigate the patients of outpatient pharmacy in our hospital,and the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS:There were to-tally 450 questionnaires,involving 417 valid questionnaires with the effective recovery of 92.67%. The questions about pharmaceuti-cal service of surveyed patients were dosage and precautions,respectively with the number of 254(60.91%)and 251(60.19%);followed by functions and indications,with the number of 234 (56.12%);besides,there were also with widespread concerns, such as drugs efficacy,medication time,and medication of elderly,children and pregnant women,etc. Among the surveyed pa-tients,20.75% were blind medication;89.45% thought the pharmacists’guidance was helpful for medication;there were still 21.35% without pharmacists’medication guidance. CONCLUSIONS:The survey shows the poor awareness of rational drug use and lacking knowledge of drugs in outpatients,they are eager for medication guidance from professional pharmacists. However,the pharmaceutical service in outpatient pharmacy needs to be improved. It is suggested to actively promote the pharmacy services by implementing points medication,adopting red and blue for warning labels,providing comprehensive drug counseling services and carrying out rational drug use education,etc.
