Abstract: Beginning with 4-level quality control measures of clinical research in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), we elaborated the implementation process and demands of quality control measures of each level, including quality control, monitoring, auditing, and inspection. On the basis of joint inspection experience of 41 projects of the "Prevention and Treatment of Difficult and Complicated Diseases of TCM" plan of the "11th Five-year National Key Technology R&D Program", we analyzed the ensuring effect of 4-level quality control system and joint inspection model, and then pointed out the existing problems in the executing process of quality control system at different levels and joint inspection model. Finally we investigated what should be revised in the quality control system and joint inspection model, thus providing the theoretical support for quality inspection improvement of TCM clinical research.

Conducting quality monitoring to multi-center clinical research is an effective measure of quality control.This study explored the optimization of some key links of quality monitoring of TCM clinical research,i.e.optimization of CRA appointment,optimization of monitoring preparation,optimization of monitoring items,and optimization of monitoring feedback.For monitoring items,this study emphasized on research progress,protocol compliance,original data conservation,medication management,validity,CRF fill-in,informed consent singing and acquisition,EDC,traceability of lab examination,(severe) adverse event reporting in detail,thus providing the theoretical support for quality monitoring improvement of TCM clinical research.

Objective:To prepare celecoxib nanosuspension ( CXB-NSs) and study the pharmacokinetics of CXB-NSs in rats. Methods:CXB-NSs were prepared by an anti-solvent precipitation and high pressure homogenization method. The particle size, polydispersion index ( PdI) and zeta potential of the nanosuspension were studied. Totally 12 Wistar rats were randomly divided into CXB-NSs group and CXB suspension group, and gastric drug dose was 100 mg·kg-1 . CXB concentration in plasma was determined by HPLC and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by 3P97 software. Results: The particle size, polydispersion index, zeta potential of CXB-NSs was (442. 5 ± 61. 9) nm, 0. 312 ± 0. 057 and ( -31. 6 ± 3. 9) mV, respectively. AUC (0-t) of CXB suspension and CXB-NSs was (5.13 ±0.77) and (13.51 ±3.18) mg·L-1·h, half time (t1/2) was (12.31 ±1.91) and (12.73 ±1.83) h, Tmax was (2. 48 ± 0. 37) and (1. 41 ± 0. 27) h and Cmax was (0. 94 ± 0. 31) and (2. 38 ± 0. 25) mg·L-1 , respectively. Conclusion:CXB-NSs can remarkably increase bioavailability in rats.

Objective To survey the thyroid-hormone changes in gravidas,and to establish the reference intervals for thyroid-hormones in each trimester of normal pregnancy in Pingdingshan.Methods 2 645 gravidas who established documents in our hospi-tal were enrolled,The gravidas were divided to different groups by age (≤30 and >30 years old)and 425 cases of early pregnancy women,1 657 cases of middle pregnancy women and 563 cases of late pregnancy women were collected as research group.4 kinds of thyroid functions in the six groups were detected by electrochemical luminescence.Results FT3 and FT4 gradually reduced as the growth of the pregnancy period,but TSH and TPOAb increased.There is statistical difference in all thyroid-hormones between all trimesters of pregnancy and different age groups.Conclusion There is significant difference in thyroid-hormones for different sta-ges of pregnancy and different age groups.Therefore,establishing reference intervals of thyroid-hormones during different stages of pregnancy may be important for clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo study the effect of Tetrax balance test and exercise on the balance function of stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods50 stroke patients with hemiplegia and with disorder of balance function were divided into treatment group (25 cases) and control group (25 cases). The patients in both groups received regularly rehabilitation train and medical therapy. The treatment group was given balance train and motor function train responded to the analysis of the Tetrax balance assessment as well. They were evaluated with Berg balance scale, motor function of lower extreme in Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) and activities of daily living (ADL) before and 4 weeks, 8 weeks, 12 weeks after treatment respectively. ResultsThere was no difference in balance function and motor function of lower extreme and ADL between treatment group and control group before treatment (P>0.05), but 4 week, 8 week, 12 week after treatment, there were significant improvement for balance function and motor function of lower extreme in both groups (P<0.01), and the treatment group improved more significantly than those of control group (P<0.05).ConclusionTexrax balance assessment can help understand the obstacle in balance function and formulate more suitable rehabilitation treatment.

Objective To investigate the change of caspase-3 and F-actin in the apoptosis of prostate cancer androgen-independent cell line DU145 induced by all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). Methods Using AO dying and fluorescent microscope to observe the shape of the cell,and the apoptosis peak can be observed by FACScan too.The effects of ATRA on the expression of caspase-3 was analyzed by Western blot and the F-actin’s structure was observed by immunofluorescent microscope. Results Flurescent microscope can observe more apoptotic cells about 85.0% in 48 h and FACScan can observe obvious apoptotic peak come into being after treated by ATRA. Meanwhile, the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 was up-regulated.The structure of F-actin was destroyed. Conclusions ATRA could induce the apoptosis of DU145 cell mediated by caspase-3 and lead to the destroy of F-actin’s structure.

As the major pathway mediating specific protein degradation in eukaryotes, ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is involved in various physiological and pathological processes such as cell cycle regulation, immune response, signal transduction and DNA-repair. Deubiquitinases (DUB) maintain the balance of UPS and related physiological processes via reversibly removing ubiquitin from the covalently modified protein substrates, which have been implicated in various disease processes in case of their imbalance expression. Because DUB plays critical regulating roles in the UPS pathway, they may be also the ideal drug targets for severe and intractable human diseases, such as cancer and neurodegenerative disease. With the rapid development of proteomic technology, systematical investigation of specific substrates and interacting proteins of varied DUB via mass spectrometry approach may shed light on these DUB's biological function and regulating roles in the physiological and pathogenic states. In this review, we briefly introduce the characteristics of DUB and summarize the recent application and progresses of proteomics in DUB research.

Protein ubiquitination is one of the most important and widely exist protein post-translational modifications in eukaryotic cells, which takes the ubiquitin and ubiquitin chains as signal molecules to covalently modify other protein substrates. It plays an important roles in the control of almost all of the life processes, including gene transcription and translation, signal transduction and cell-cycle progression, besides classical 26S protesome degradation pathway. Varied modification sites in the same substrates as well as different types of ubiquitin linkages in the same modification sites contain different structural information, which conduct different signal or even determine the fate of the protein substrates in the cell. Any abnormalities in ubiquitin chain formation or its modification process may cause severe problem in maintaining the balance of intracellular environment and finally result in serious health problem of human being. In this review, we discussed the discovery, genetic characteristics and the crystal structure of the ubiquitin. We also emphasized the recent progresses of the assembly processes, structure and their biological function of ubiquitin chains. The relationship between the disregulation and related human diseases has also been discussed. These progress will shed light on the complexity of proteome, which may also provide tools in the new drug research and development processes.
