OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for the determination of particle size distribution of Budesonide nasal spray, and to analyze the consistency of particle size distribution of spray samples. METHODS:Water was used as dispersant for mixing and dispersing(1800 r/min). The particle sizes [d(0.1),d(0.5),d(0.9)] corresponded to accumulative particle size of 10%,50%and 90%were used as characteristic value. The distribution of granularity was determined by laser scattering method. The consisten-cy of particle size distribution of samples from 2 manufacturers (A,B) were analyzed among different batches or same batch of same manufacturer by SAS 9.3 statistical software. RESULTS:The mean values of d(0.1),d(0.5) and d(0.9) were 3.96 μm, 29.58 μm and 67.10 μm in manufacturer A. The mean values of d(0.1),d(0.5)and d(0.9)were 2.00 μm,7.53 μm and 28.51 μm in manufacturer B. By analysis,there was great difference in particle size of samples from 2 manufacturers. The particle size of the samples from manufacturer A were larger than that of manufacturer B. The consistency among different batches from manufacturer B was better,and the consistency among same batch were all good from 2 manufacturers. CONCLUSIONS:The established meth-od is suitable for particle size distribution of Budesonide nasal spray and the consistency analysis of particle size distribution.

Objective To investigate the effect of serum-deprivation on the changes of [ Ca2+ ] i and the protein release of S100A13 and fibroblast growth factor 1 ( FGF-1 ) in thyroid cancer TT cell,and to reveal the role of Ca2+in the protein release of S100Al3 and FGF-1.Methods The protein expressions of FGF-1 and S100A13 in TT cells under serum-deprivation were detected by Western blot.The released FGF-1 protein from TT cells in the supernatant fluid was detected by ELISA.Realtime dynamic examinations on the change of 1 h [ Ca2+ ] i in TT cells under serum-deprivation were detected by confocal laser scanning microscopy.Then,the effect of EGTA( 2.5 mmol/ L),BAPTA-AM (2.5 μmol/L)on distributions of the fluorescence of S100AI 3 and FGF-1 in TT cells under serumdeprivation for6 h were detected by indirect immunofluorescence.Results The expressions of FGF-1 and S100A13 in TT cells after serum-deprivation for4 h and 6 h were reduced( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 ),but the released FGF-1 protein from TT cells in the supernatant fluid was elevated ( P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Confocal laser scanning of Ca2+ imaging indicated that [ Ca2+ ] i of serum-deprivation TT cells maintained the relative stabilization within 23 win,but the rapid rise of [ Ca2+ ] i achieved peak value 1.6 μmol/L after 30 min,and remained stable for about 17 win,and thereafter 40 win slowly dropped to a low level From 40 win to 60 win the [ Ca2+ ] i was about 0.3-0.6 μ mol/L.The average [ Ca2+ ] i was higher than that in normal group,EGTA group,and BAPTA-AM group within 1 h.The protein expressions of S100A13 and FGF-1 did not drop obviously in EGTA group and BAPTA-AM group.Conlusion The release of S100A13 and FGF-1 from TT cell under serum-deprivation is possibly related with the change of [ Ca2+ ]i.Both Ca2+-chelating agents EGTA and BA PTA-AM are able to inhibit the rise of [ Ca2+ ] i and release of S100A 13 and FGF-1 from TT cells under serum-deprivation.

[ Objective ] To investigate the relationship between tongue manifestations and immune function in chronic hepatitis B with HBsAg, HBeAg and HBcAb positive. [Methods] Among the cases of HBsAg, HBeAg and HBcAb positive from the out - patient department and health screening survey, 200 chronic hepatitis patients and 100 asymptomatic HBV carriers with glumatic - pyruvic transaminase at normal level were included. Thirty healthy volunteers served as control. Relationship of tongue manifestations with phytohemagglutinin (PHA) skin test and the serum levels of immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgA and IgM was analyzed. [Results] With the development of chronic hepatitis, the immune function became disordered and tongue manifestations abnormal. Reddish tongue with or without yellowish greasy fur or yellowish fur showed the hyperactivity of immune function; whitish swollen tongue with or without whitish greasy fur indicated the hypoactivity of immune function; dull purplish tongue was the sign of disordered immune function. The shape and color of tongue was superior to tongue fur in showing the condition of immune function ( P

Objective To investigate the time and implant selection in conversion from external fixation to internal fixation of tibial shaft fracture.Methods Data of 57 cases of tibial shaft fracture fixed externally followed by internal fixation from February 2003 to February 2012 were analyzed.Internal fixation (intramedullary nails or plates) initiated within 2 weeks (Group A,n =.35) and over 2 weeks (Group B,n =22) were compared in outcomes.Results One infection (3％) and four poor bone healing (11％) were observed in Group A.Five infections (23％) and three poor bone healing (14％) occurred in Group B.For intramedullary nail fixation,no infection was observed in Group A but infection rate of44％ was found in Group B.For plate internal fixation,infection rate was 8％ for both groups.Conclusions The conversion from internal fixation to internal fixation had better start within 2 weeks,with better resuhs,lower rate of infection and safer in comparison with that over 2 weeks.In addition,pin-tract infection is the high risk factor for infection after the conversion of the fixation.

A series of isoindoline derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their double inhibitory activities. All of them were new compounds, and their structures were confirmed by 1H NMR and HR-MS. Preliminary in vitro pharmacological tests showed that all compounds exhibited 5-HT or NE reuptake inhibition activity. Among the tested compounds, compound I-3 exhibited potent inhibitory activity against 5-HT and NE reuptake in vitro, and exhibited potent antidepressant activity in vivo. These compounds designed can be further optimized for finding more potent 5-HT/NE dual reuptake inhibitors and antidepressant candidates as well.
