Object To prepare Panax notoginseng saponin (PNS) liposomes and investigate their characterization of pharmaceutics and pulmonary pharmacokinetics in rats. Methods The film-disperion method was used to prepare PNS liposomes by investigating its form, vesicle size, entrapping efficiency and stability. The study of pulmonary pharmacokinetics in rats was carried out by pulmonary instillation. Results The entrapment of PNS liposomes was 78.50%. The mean vesicle size was 1.5 ?m with uniform externality. The drug leakage from PNS liposomes was slow. Low temperature was required for its storage. The pulmonary pharmacokinetics parameters were as follows: T 1/2 ?=7.00 h, T 1/2 ?=27.72 h, AUC= 2 218.9 ?g?h/mL, the absolute bioavailability was 70.14%. Conclusion PNS liposomes with high entrapment and stability can prolong its circulation in blood and improve the PNS bioavailability via lung approach.

AIM: To study the preparation and physiological compatibility of pulmonary administration with Saponius of Panax Notoginseng (PNS) liposomes. METHODS: PNS liposomes was prepared by thin film dispersion method. The prefered formulation was determined by factorial design. Ciliary movement in situtoad palate model and the changes of pulmonary edema index and pathology of lungs in rats were investigated to evaluate the physiological compatibility of PNS liposomes. RESULTS: PNS liposomes were proved to be large unilamellar vesicle (LUV) liposomes with spherical shape .The liposomes composed of PC and Ch has a high PNS capture efficiency of 78.5% ?2.15% . The mean vesicle size of liposomes were 1546.5nm ?321.4nm which were quite homogeneous in size distribution. The lasting time of ciliary movement after the rinsing of PNS liposomes was the 92.14% of the effect of PBS buffer. The pulmonary edema index and pathological changes of lung tissue in PNS liposomes group were significantly different from those in PNS solution group and close to those in PBS buffer group. CONCLUSION: PNS liposomes has good physiological compatibility with promising market development and application.

Aim To investigate the effects of cajanonic acid A (CAA) on lipid metabolism in murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Methods 3T3-L1 cells induced to differ-entiated into mature adipocytes were treated with CAA in different dosages for 48 h, then total lipids as well as triglyceride, free fatty acid and glycerol were meas-ured. The expression levels of genes related to lipid metabolism were quantitatively analyzed by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymearase chain reaction ( RTFQ-PCR) . Results Total lipids and triglyceride in 3T3-L1 adipocytes were markedly reduced by CAA. The release of free fatty acid and glycerol was lower than that of control. This coincided with decreased mRNA levels of the key enzymes involved in de novo lipogenesis ( acetyl CoA carboxylase and fatty acid syn-thase) , fatty acid uptake ( lipoprotein lipase) , and li-polysis ( hormone sensitive lipase and adipose triglycer-ide lipase ) . While the expression of fatty acid oxida-tive genes including acyl CoA oxidase and carnitine palmitoyl transferase1 was increased after CAA treat-ment. Conclusion CAA may inhibit lipogenesis and lipolysis,reduce circulating free fatty acid and improve the lipid metabolism in adipocytes by regulating gene expressions.

BACKGROUND:Guidances for design of Chinese people’s temporomandibular joint prosthesis are urgently needed because foreign prosthesis is unsuitable for Chinese people due to variant anatomy parameters.
OBJECTIVE:To provide a reference for improving the design of artificial temporomandibular joint through computer three-dimensional digital measures of the anatomy parameters of the temporomandibular joint. METHODS:Continuous CT data with layer thick 0.625 mm of 30 normal temporomandibular joints were selected. Three-dimensional digital reconstruction and eight related anatomy parameter measurements of the articular fossaandcondylar of the joints were performed using Mimics10.01 software.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The internal and external diameter of the mandibular fossa, head of mandible and neck of mandible were greater thantheanterior and posteriordiameter. The mandibular foramen was located at middle-posterior of the ramus ofthe mandible. The distance between head of the mandible and coronoid process was longer than the depth of the mandibular notch. There were no
significant differences between two sidesregardingal above-mentioned parameters. There are certain regular patterns in anatomy parameters of the temporomandibular joint. The study results wil provide a reference for improving the design of artificial temporomandibular joint.

Objective:To investigate the value of serum anti-PLA2 R as a diagnostic marker of idiopathic membranous nephropathy( IMN).Methods:All available articles about serum anti-PLA2 R as a marker of IMN which were published at home and abroad from 2009.1 to 2013.12 were pooled from the databases of PubMed,Elsevier,Springer,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang database et al. The quality of the papers were evaluated by the quality assessment for studies of diagnostic accuracy studies( QUADAS).And then a meta-analysis was conducted by the statistical softwares of Meta-Disc and Stata.The diagnostic value of serum anti-PLA2 R in IMN was evaluated by the statistical indicators of pooled sensitivity, pooled specificity, pooled likelihood ratio and summary receiver operating characteristic curve( ROC curve).Sensitivity analysis was performed by reducing a paper in order,and publication bias was tested by Egger funnel plot.Results: Seven articles were selected to the meta-analysis according to the inclusion criteria and 967 cases were included in the study ( 454 IMN patients and 513 controls ).Heterogeneity test showed no heterogeneity threshold effect ( Spearman correlation coefficient was 0.107,P=0.819),but there was heterogeneity caused by non threshold effects(Cochrane-Q was 16.89,P=0.009 7).So random model was used to pool the effect size.The overall combined effect sizes:sensitivity was 69%,95%CI:0.65-0.73;specificity:98%,95%CI:0.96-0.99;pooled positive likelihood ratio 16.37,95%CI:4.06-65.95;pooled negative likelihood ratio 0.32,95%CI:0.24-0.43;AUC of SROC:0.854 0,Q*=0.785 0.Sensitivity analysis showed that this research was stable and reliable and Egger funnel plot showed little publication bias.Conclusion: Serum anti-PLA2 R is an useful biomarker to the diagnosis of IMN.

Objective To explore the impact of preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the expressions of multi-drug resistance genes in patients with cervical cancer and its relationship with the effect of chemotherapy. Methods Ninety-eight cervical cancer patients with TP regimen selected to perform preoperative chemotherapy were enrolled in the Affiliated Hospital of Guiyang Medical College between January 2010 and June 2014. Immunohistochemisty (En vision method) was used to determine the expressions of P-gP, GST-π and TopoII of the same patients before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and explore the relationship with the effect of chemotherapy. Results The positive expression rates of P-gp and GST-π were 71.43% and 64.29% before chemotherapy and 80.61%and 74.49%after chemotherapy, respectively. The former two had significant differences (P<0.01). The positive expression rates of TopoII was 48.98%before chemotherapy and 28.57%after chemotherapy , respectively, showing significant differences (P < 0.01). The expressions of P-gp, GST-π and TopoⅡ gene were not affected by the clinical and pathological features of cervical cancer (P > 0.05). Before neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the positive expression of GST-π in the ineffective group was statistically higher than that in the effective group (P<0.05). The positive expressions of P-gp and Topo II showed no statistical significance between the effective group and the ineffective group (P > 0.05). There was significant correlation in the expressions of P-gp, GST-π and TopoⅡ(P < 0.05) before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Conclusions The expression of P-gp, GST-πand TopoⅡgene may not be affected by the clinical and pathological features of cervical cancer, but may change expressions of multi-drug resistance genes in cervical cancer by neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Monitoring their expression has a guiding significance for drug selection, prognostic judgment, and the following treatment regimen decision. The GST-π, expression level can be used as a biological parameter to predict the effect of TP regimen neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
