China Pharmacist 2017;20(3):513-515
Objective:To analyze the correlation between cyclosporin A blood concentration and drug-induced liver and kidney in-jury in the patients with aplastic anemia, investigate the significance of cyclosporin A concentration in the monitoring of liver and kidney toxicity, and provide theoretical basis for clinical individualized drug use. Methods:A total of 149 patients with aplastic anemia trea-ted with cyclosporin A as the main therapeutic drug were selected, and after 3-day treatment, the blood concentration of cyclosporin A was detected by an HPLC-UV method 10 minutes before the administration and 2 hours after the administration. The liver and kidney function were measured at the same time. The correlation between the different concentration of cyclosporine A and the change of liver and kidney function was analyzed. Results:All the patients were monitored cyclosporine A blood concentration with 1236 samples, and 34 patients (22. 82%) were with drug-induced liver injury and 51 patients (34. 23%) showed drug-induced kidney toxicity. The average C0 of liver injury patients was (297. 92 ± 74. 14) μg·L-1 , and C2 was (944. 47 ± 148. 47) μg·L-1 , while the average C0 of kidney injury patients was (311. 41 ± 52. 80)μg·L-1, and C2 was (926. 25 ± 136. 02) μg·L-1. The function indices of liver (ALT, AST, TBIL) and kidney (SC, BUN, UA) were significantly higher than those in the normal group (P<0. 05), and the blood concentration of cyclosporin A was significantly correlated with the liver,and kidney function. Conclusion:There is a certain correla-tion between cyclosporine A -induced toxicity and its blood concentration and C2 may be a more valuable predictor for drug -induced liver injury.

Journal of China Medical University 2014;(5):422-425
Objective To investigate the effects of vasoactive intestinal peptide on transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)expression in lung tis-sue of asthmatic mice with airway remodeling. Methods A total of 30 SPF grade female Balb/c mice were randomly divided into three groups:con-trol(group A),asthmatic(group B),and vasoactive intestinal peptide treatment(group C). Aerosolized ovalbumin was used to establish the asth-matic mice model. Pathological changes of bronchial and lung tissues were observed by HE,the perimeter of basement membrane(Pbm),internal wall area(WAi)and smooth muscle area(WAm)in bronchial lung tissue were analyzed using the pathological image. The expression levels of TGF-β1 mRNA and protein in lung tissue were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. Results Pathologic changes including collagen deposition,in-filtration of inflammatory cells and smooth muscle layer thickness were found in group B. In addition,the WAi/Pbm and WAm/Pbm were significant-ly higher in group B than those of the group A(P<0.05),and lower in group C than in group B(P<0.05). The expression levels of TGF-β1mRNA and protein in group B were higher than both group A(P<0.05)and group C(P<0.05). Conclusion Vasoactive intestinal peptide may inhibit airway remodeling,which may be associated with reduced expression of TGF-β1.
10.The comparative study of radiograph, MRI and pathology in degeneration of lumbar intervertebral disc
Chinese Journal of Radiology 2001;0(09):-
Objective To investigate the pathology and MRI features of the degeneration of lumbar intervertebral discs (IVD). Methods Thirteen human lumbar spine segments with 31 IVDs were harvested from fresh cadavers. High quality radiographs were taken for all specimens. Five segments with 20 IVD underwent MRI. Then, the radiographic and MRI findings were correlated with corresponding 87 pathologic sections. Results Variant degeneration was observed in pathologic sections in all 31 IVDs. With MRI T 2WI images, 20 IVDs showed linear and spotty high signal in the annular fibers, or most of the IVD showed high signal. On pathologic cuts, 22 of 31 IVDs showed infolding of annular fibers, 18 of 31 showed outfolding of annular fibers. On MRI T 1WI and T 2WI images, infolding and outfinding of annular fibers were seen as low signal. 20 of 31 IVDs had necrotic debris of cells in the nucleus pulposus. 14 of 20 demonstrated spotty low signal areas on MRI T 2WI images.7 Schmorl nodules were found. On pathologic sections Schmorl nodules were seen as IVD tissue protruding into vertebral endplates, they were seen as high signal on T 2WI images. Two large fissures found on sections were seen as low signal on T 2WI. Degenerative fibrosis seen on 6 IVD, which showed intermediate signal on T 2WI images. However, radiographs only demonstrated osteophytes on 3 vertebrae, 7 Schmorl's nodules. Sclerotic, concave and irregular endplates were seen in 11 IVDs, the latter is the indication of cartilaginous endplate disruption. Conclusion MRI is very useful in demonstrating the degeneration of IVD, radiograph is able to indirectly show the disapperance of cartilaginous endplate.
