AIM: To investigate the distribution in mice and pharmacokinetics in rabbits of fraction Ⅲ isolated from Naja naja atra venom. METHODS: Fraction Ⅲ was labelled with [~(125)Ⅰ] by chloramine-T method. The drug concentration in blood was determined by a radionuclide tracing kinetic methods. The distribution of [~(125)Ⅰ]-fraction Ⅲ in mice was determined based on the ratio of the relative incorporation of radioactivity in tissues to that in blood. RESULTS: In two and four hours after intravenous injection of fraction Ⅲ in mice, the organs in which the ratio of the radioactivity incorporation was bigger than 1 were liver, kidney, lung, heart and muscle, whth the maximun in kidney. After intravenous injection of fraction Ⅲ, with dosages of 75, 150 and 300 ?g/kg, respectively, the T_(1/2)?, T_(1/2)? and T_(1/2)? were 39.6-42.5 min, 16.8-17.3 h and 21.7-22.1 h, respectively. There was no significant difference between the different dosages. CONCLUSION: Fraction Ⅲ was mostly found in kidney, followed by liver and lung after intravenous administration in mice. The pharmacokinetics is in accordance with the feature of three atrioventricular modle. The AUC is in direct proportion to the dosage. It suggests that the distribution and clearance of the drug is a grade 1 linear kinetic process. [

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant human acidic fibroblast growth factor( rh-aFGF)and re-combinant human basic fibroblast growth factor( rh-bFGF)in the treatment of deep second degree burn. Methods:A multicenter,pro-spective,randomized and double-blind clinical trial was conducted. Totally 216 cases of deep second degree burn were selected from five research centers and given appropriate antibiotics and nutritional supplement therapy. The wound of 108 cases in the observation group were rinsing with rh-aFGF(one bottle / 5cm2)according to the wound area at the time of admission followed by rh-aFGF daily spraying,3-4 press/cm2 ,6-8 times a day. The 108 patients in the control group were treated with rh-bFGF with the same regimen as the observation group. After the 30-day follow-up,the wound healing was evaluated in the two groups. Results:The complete healing time,debridement time,complete healing rate in 12 days and 15 days in the observation group were all better than those in the control group(P<0. 05). After the 7-day treatment,the level of leukocyte and seepage score of the observation group were both lower than those of the control group(P<0. 01). The moderate rate showed significant difference between the two groups(P<0. 05). Conclu-sion:rh-aFGF shows better clinical efficacy than rh-bFGF in the treatment of deep second degree burn with the similar safety.

OBJECTIVETo establish an indicator system of risk assessment for mechanical cuts, and to validate the system using examples.

METHODSAn indicator system was proposed by the expert investigation method. The index weight, expert authority coefficient, and degree of coordination were determined. The reasonability and stability of the expert questionnaire were evaluated by the reliability analysis. Some on-site examples were given to validate the indicator system.

RESULTSAn indicator system containing 3 first-class indicators, 10 second-class indicators, and 34 third-class indicators was obtained by screening indicators using the boundary value method and the assignment transformation method. The average expert authority coefficient was 0.79. The average expert coordination coefficient was 0.47. The overall reliability coefficient was 0.884. The scores obtained using the indicator system were significantly correlated with the actual injury results in six workplaces (r=0.866, P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe indicator system of risk assessment for mechanical cuts proposed in this study is reasonable and highly consistent with the actual injury results. However, this indicator system still needs further validation and optimization.

Objective: To investigate the effect and mechanism of RNA binding protein Lin28 on the 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) sensitivity of HepG2 cells. Methods: HepG2 cells were transfected with plasmid pcDNA3.1-Lin28 or si-Lin28 (small interfering RNA of Lin28). qPCR and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of Lin28 in HepG2 cells after transfection. Changes of cell proliferation in transfected cells after 5-Fu treatment was detected by CCK8 assay and the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) was calculated. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptotic rate after 5-Fu treatment and the expression of apoptosis-related protein was assayed by Western blotting. The mRNA expressions of drug-resistant miRNAs (let-7a and let-7b), as well as cancer stem cell markers (Oct4, Nanog and Sox2) after transfection were detected by qPCR. Results: As compared to the HepG2/Vector cells, the mRNA and protein expressions of Lin28 were significantly up-regulated in HepG2/Lin28 cells (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Over-expression of Lin28 significantly suppressed the sensitivity of HepG2 cells to 5-Fu (IC50elevated obviously, P<0.05) and significantly increased cell proliferation while decreased apoptotic rate and expression of apoptotic-related protein caspase-3 (all P<0.01). As compared to si-control group, expression of Lin28 in HepG2/si-Lin28 cells was significantly down-regulated (P<0.01). Lin28 knockdown significantly reduced cell proliferation and IC50 of 5-Fu (all P<0.01) but increased apoptotic rate and expression of apoptosis-related protein (P<0.01). Compared with HepG2/Vector group, expressions of let-7a and let-7b, as well as cancer stem cell markers (Oct4, Nanog and Sox2) were significantly increased in HepG2/Lin28 cells (all P<0.01); while these molecules were significantly decreased in HepG2/si-Lin28 cells as comparing to si-control group (all P<0.01). Conclusion: Lin28 can modulate the chemosensitivity of HepG2 cells by regulating the expression of miRNAs and the formation of cancer stem cells. Targeting Lin28 might be a promising approach to improve the chemotherapy efficacy in HCC.
