Objective:To study the in vitro and in vivo transdermal penetration of testosterone undecanoate ( TU) binary ethosomes gel. Methods:TU binary ethosomes were prepared by an ethanol injection method, and using carbopol 941 as the gel base, TU binary ethosomes gel was prepared. Using mouse skin as the barrier, Franz cells were applied to explore the in vitro transdermal penetration of TU binary ethosomes and the gel. Rats were used as the animals, and TU binary ethosomes and the gel was respectively administrated on the back skin. At the predetermined time points, plasma samples were withdrawn to detect the concentration of TU, and the main pharmacokinetics parameters were calculated. Results: The in vitro transdermal penetration of TU binary ethosomes and the gel was both fitted first-order equation:Q=8. 68t+6. 78(r=0. 998 2) and Q=6. 09t+3. 09(r=0. 999 3), and the stable penetration rate was 8. 68 μg·cm-2 ·h-1 and 6. 09μg·cm-2 ·h-1 , respectively. After the 24-hour penetration, the residual amount in skin of TU binary ethosomes and the gel was (208. 80 ± 55. 26)μg·g-1 and (225. 60 ± 38. 90)μg·g-1 , respectively. The main pharmacokinet-ics parameters of TU binary ethosomes and the gel were Cmax of(18.50 ±2.75)mg·L-1 and(20.80 ±2.42)mg·L-1, tmax of(6.20 ± 0. 14)h and(9. 54 ± 0. 52)h, and AUC0-48h of(336. 74 ± 2. 05)h and(486. 30 ± 1. 68)h. Conclusion:TU binary ethosomes and the gel both exhibit promising in vitro transdermal penetration, and the gel shows better sustained release property.

Objective:To study the pharmacokinetic parameters of gastrodin nasal in situ gel ( ISG) with the base of TMC-P407-P188-carbomer, and evaluate its brain-targeting ability preliminarily. Methods:Rats were used as the model animals. The experiment group was treated with gastrodin nasal in situ gel, and the control group was treated with gastrodin solution with intravenous administra-tion. The plasma sample and brain tissue ( cerebrum and cerebellum) were taken out at the predetermined time points, and the concen-tration of gastrodin in plasma and gastrodigenin in brain tissues were determined by HPLC to draw the curve of concentration vs time. The pharmacokinetic parameters such as MRT and AUC were calculated by 3P97 software. The bioavailability F (%) and the brain-targeting index BTI were compared between the groups. Results:The concentration of gastrodigenin in the brain tissues of grastrodin in situ gel was higher than that of gastrodin solution with intravenous administration (P<0. 05). AUC of cerebrum and cerebellum both increased significantly with BTI of 2. 38 and 1. 93, respectively. MRT increased by nearly two-fold in the gel group when compared with that in the control group, and F(%) increased significantly in cerebrum and cerebellum as well. Conclusion:Gastrodin nasal in situ gel with the base of TMC-P407-P188-carbomer has promising effectiveness. Meanwhile, it can improve the brain-targeting ability of gastrodin with sustained release.

Objective To explore the enhancement effect of N-trimethyl chitosan(TMC) on transdermal absorption of 8-methoxypsoralen-loaded liposomal(LMOP) gels in vitro.Methods TMC with quaternization degree of 60％ (TMC60) as the enhancer,the LMOP gels were prepared with free TMC60 or TMC60-coating.The enhancement of free TMC60 or TMC60-coating was studied by using Franz diffusion,cells with LMOP gels as the negative control and LMOP gels including 1％ Azone + propylene glycol as the positive control.Results Compared with the negative control,enhancement and drug amount in skin of LMOP gels with enhancer all showed significant difference (x2 =8.65,P ＜ 0.05),and the free TMC.60 was the best.Conclusion TMC can enhance the transdermal penetration of LMOP gels in vitro and is valuable to be studied further.

Objective:To screen the best base for gastrodin nasal in situ gel ( ISG) to lay foundation for the development of gastrodin new preparation .Methods:Two bases were chosen , one was the combination of N-trimethyl chitosan ( TMC) , polyethylene glycol 4000 (PEG4000) and glycerophosphate (GP), and another was the combination of TMC, poloxamer 407 (P407), poloxamer 188 (P188) and carbomer.With the nasal cavity temperature of 35℃as the test temperature, the gelling time of the two bases was determined to screen the optimal ratio.Furthermore, gastrodin was added into the two bases , and the gelling time was determined to choose the suitable base for the drug.Results:The base of TMC-PEG4000-GP couldn’t gel in the nasal cavity temperature when combined with gastrodin , while the base of TMC-P407-P188-carbomer could gel quickly when combined with gastrodin .Conclusion:TMC-P407-P188-carbomer can be used as the base for gastrodin nasal in situ gel .

Objective:To study the effect of membrane-coating on dissolution and stability of sirolimus ( SRL) dropping pills to prove the effect and rationality of the coating process. Methods:Opadry was used as the coating material for SRL dropping pills. Com-pared with those of uncoated SRL dropping pills, the dissolution and stability of membrane-coating SRL dropping pills were studied in vitro. Results:Compared with that of uncoated SRL dropping pills, the drug release amount of membrane-coating SRL dropping pills was lower (P<0. 05), however, the stable release rate showed no significant difference (P>0. 05). After the membrane-coating, the stability of SRL dropping pills was notable enhanced under high humidity (75% ± 5%) and strong light (4500lx ± 500lx) conditions, however, the stability showed no improved under high temperature(40℃ ± 2℃) condition. Conclusion: The membrane-coating can enhance the stability of SRL dropping pills without significant effect on drug release in vitro.

Objective:To study the relative bioavailability of sirolimus ( SRL) dropping pills in rats. Methods:PEG6000 as the base, SRL dropping pills were prepared using solvent-melting method. The SRL marketed tablets as the reference preparation and rats as the animals, the relative bioavailability of SRL dropping pills was studied to obtain the pharmaceutical parameters and bioequiavail-ability. Results:Compared with that of the reference preparation, tmax of SRL dropping pills was the same (1 h). There was no signifi-cant difference in Cmax between the dropping pills and the tablets (P>0. 05). AUC0-24 of the dropping pills was notably higher than that of the marketed tablets (P<0. 05) with the bioequiavailability of 121. 98%. Conclusion:SRL dropping pills with promising bioavail-ability are valuable to be studied further.

Objective:To investigate the application of Xingnaojing injection ( XNJI) in the patients of neurosurgery department to provide reference for the rational drug use. Methods:The retrospective investigation was applied to survey 200 hospitalization records with XNJI from a certain hospital between January 2014 and June 2015. The usage, dosage, medication purpose, course of treatment, compatibility and adverse effects of XNJI were analyzed. Results:The unlabeled use of XNJI was found in neurosurgery department, and 34. 50% of the surveyed patients were found that their diagnoses didn’t conform to the indications in the medicine specification of XNJI. Moreover, 92. 50% of the inpatients were treated with overdose and almost 90. 00% were treated with single drug dose of 40 ml. It was also found that XNJI was often combined with potassium chloride or with potassium chloride plus insulin in clinical use. Conclu-sion:There is some irrational use of XNJI in clinics, thus the use and management of traditional Chinese medicine injections should be strengthened and regulated.

Objective:To coat sirolimus ( SRL) dropping pills with a membrane to enhance the ability of moisture proof. Meth-ods:Opadry was chosen as the coating material. The solvent, concentration and weight gain of the coating membrane were defined, and the coating parameters were screened. The critical relative humidity ( CRH%) of membrane-coating SRL dropping pills was detec-ted and compared with that of SRL dropping pills without coating. Results: The formula and coating parameters of membrane-coating SRL dropping pills were as follows:95% ethanol was used as the solvent, Opadry concentration was 6. 5%, the weigh gain was 4%, the inlet air temperature was (35 ± 2)℃, the inlet fluid rate was 12 ml·min-1 and the spraying pressure was 3. 0 MPa. The CRH%of memebrane-coating SRLs dropping pills was 63. 1%, which was much higher than that of uncoated SRL dropping pills (36. 1%). Conclusion:The membrane-coating can enhance the moisture proof of SRL dropping pills, which is beneficial to the stability.
