Chinese Pharmaceutical Journal 2014;49(11):935-940
OBJECTIVE: To compare the gastrointestional (GI) adverse events of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors by systematic review and meta-analysis to provide reference for clinicians. METHODS: The following databases were searched: Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, ClinicalTrials, and CNKI. And the following terms were used to search head to head studies comparing the GI adverse events of GLP-1 receptor agonists and DPP-4 inhibitors: "GLP-1 receptor agonist", "DPP-4 inhibitor", "incretin-based therapy", "adverse events", and "safety". Meta-analysis was performed by Revman 5.0 software, with results expressed as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for GI adverse events. RESULTS: A total of 1 231 articles were obtained, among which six randomized clinical trials (RCTs) which include 884 GLP-1 receptor agonists users and 798 DPP-4 inhibitors users (total number=1 682), were included for the meta-analysis. The result showed that GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with a higher incidence of GI adverse events, the ORs of high dose GLP-1 receptor agonists versus DPP-4 inhibitors for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation were 4.68(3.36, 6.52), 4.66(2.51, 8.65), 2.17(1.54, 3.06) and 2.39(1.35, 4.24), respectively; the ORs of low dose GLP-1 receptor agonists versus DPP-4 inhibitors for nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation were 4.09(3.06, 5.48), 3.80(2.22, 6.50), 2.06(1.46, 2.93) and 2.39(1.35, 4.24), respectively. CONCLUSION: Compared to DPP-4 inhibitors, GLP-1 receptor agonists are associated with a higher incidence of GI side effects including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and constipation.

Objective To explore the proliferative and apoptotic effect of 3 different siRNAs targeting survivin in human bladder cancer cell line EJ28. Methods Three siRNAs targeting survivin and 1 fluorescence-labeled siRNA as a negative control were chemically synthesized. Transfetion efficiency was observed under fluorescence microscope after transfecting the fluorescence-labeled siRNAs. EJ28 cells were divided into 6 groups: siRNA164 group, siRNA167 group, siRNA389 group, and negative control group, lipofectin group and cell control group. The proliferation of EJ28 cell was detected by MTT assay at 24, 48 and 72 h after the transfection. Apoptotic rate was detected by Annexin V-FITC-FCM assay at 48 h.Results All the sequence-specific siRNAs targeting survivin efficiently suppressed the proliferation of EJ28 cells. siRNA 164 had the most powerful effect because of its highest inhibitory rate of (41.32?2.54)% and the highest apoptotic rate of (13.20?0.25)% at 48 h after transfection. Conclusion RNAi targeting survivin has a potential value in the gene therapy of bladder cancer.

The drug-loading system of DMF (dextran - magnetic layered double hydroxide - fluorouracil) was synthesized by "co-precipitation intercalated assembly - dextran composite in situ - solvent conversion" technology. The crystal-phase characteristic and slow-release performance of DMF were investigated through X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectrum (IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), thermogravimetry (TG) and in vitro release experiment. The targeted transshipment and slow-release effect of DMF system were evaluated by in vivo animal experiment. It was showed that the XRD of DMF matched with R-sixtetragonum type layered double hydroxide and Fd-3m cubic type ferrite. IR test demonstrated that the DMF system was a supra-molecular complex consisted of Dextran (DET), magnetic layered double hydroxide (MLDH) and fluorouracil (FU) components. The two-level supra-molecular MLDH-FU presented six-edge lozenge TEM morphology, with layered characteristics. DET on the surface of DMF was capable of protecting the layered structure of MLDH-FU, improving particle dispersion properties, and strengthening the slow-release performance of the drug delivery system. The drug release model of DMF at pH 7.35 of PBS in vitro fit to the zero-order kinetics equation C = 1.1716 x 10(-5) + 4.4626 x 10(-7) t. The drug delivery system DMF could transport drugs principally to in vivo target organs with a local effect, targeted specificity, and excellent circulation transshipment performance. The pharmacokinetic process of DMF presented multi-peak phenomenon with peak attenuation and cyclic growth. The peaks appeared at 0.25, 1, 3, 5 and 9 d separately after dosing intervention. The first peak process of DMF accorded with a pharmacokinetic equation of C(FU) = 14.34 e(-0.530t) + 36.04 e(-0.321t) + 24.18 e(-0.96t), and presented the characteristic of slow absorption and fast elimination. As for subsequent peak processes, half-life increased, bioavailability increased, and plasma clearance decreased. The highest peak value of DMF was 1/37 of original value of FU, and the relative bioavailability was 419% to original FU.

Objective To investigate the role of CD4 ~+ CD25~+ regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg)in modulating the cellular immune response and pathogenesis of murine pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods Inactivation of Treg was achieved by intraperitoneal injection anti-CD25 (clone PC61,50 μ/mouse) in PC61 group, and rat-IgG (50 μ/mouse) was injected intraperitoneally in control group. All the mice were inoculated intravenously with H37Rv 0. 1 mL (1 × 10~6 CFU) 3 days after Treg inactivation. The effects of Treg inactivation in different tissues were analyzed by flow cytometry. The cellular immune response, pulmonary histopathology and bacterial load were determined in vitro at different time points. The data were compared using homogeneity of variance F test and non-paired t test. Results In spleen, the percentages of Treg/CD4 T lymphocytes in PC61 group and control group were (21. 13± 3. 58)% and (30. 42± 4. 20)%, respectively at day 10 of inoculation (t = 2. 38, P < 0. 05), and those were (16. 12 ± 1. 26)% and ( 17. 34± 1. 62)%,respectively at day 30 of inoculation (t = 0. 84,P>0. 05). The percentages of Foxp3~+/CD4~+ T lymphocytes in PC61 group and control group were (32. 07 ± 3. 95)% and (60. 55 ± 5. 48)%,respectively at day 10 of inoculation (t = 5. 96, P<0. 05). Similar results were achieved in the peripheral blood. Bacillus calmette-guerin (BCG)-specific 1L-17 (ng/L) secreted by murine spleen cells in PC61 group and control group at day 10, 30 and 60 of inoculation were 5. 1± 0.9 vs 0, 43. 1± 10.0 vs5. 9± 2. 8 and 124.8 ± 5.8 vs 102. 5±8. 1, respectively (t = 7. 90, t=5. 10,t = 3. 19; all P<0.05); those of BCG-specific IFN-γ (ng/L) were 28. 4 ± 8. 2 vs 4. 0±1. 3, 685. 9± 128. 6 vs418. 7±20.4 and 310.9±119. 7 vs 32. 8±7. 5, respectively(tO = 4. 21,t = 8. 43, t = 3. 27; all P<0.05);those of TNF-a (ng/L) were 38. 6±5.0 vs 16. 3±4. 0, 112. 9 ±12. 3 vs 71. 5±12. 6 and 86. 2±8. 2vs0, respectively(t = 4. 95, t=3. 33,t/=14.8; all P<0. 05). The lung bacterial load at day 10 of inoculation in PC61 group was lower than that in control group (t = 4. 63, P < 0. 01), but the differences were not significant thereafter. The changes of lung histopathology at late stage of infection (day 120) in PC61 group were less severe than those in control group. Conclusions Murine Tregs increase dramatically after Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Treg could inhibit the specific cellular immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and therefore, may facilitate the persistent infection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and development of tuberculosis.
