OBJECTIVE:To study the pharmacokinetics effects of naloxone combination on Shenmai injection in rats in vivo. METHODS:12 rats were randomly divided into monotherapy group (Shenmai injection 9.00 ml/kg,iv) and combination group (Shenmai injection 9.00 ml/kg+naloxone 1.80 ml/kg,iv). The blood samples were collected before administration and 0.083,0.25, 0.5,0.75,1,1.5,2,3,6,12,24,48,96 and 144 h after administration. HPLC was adopted to determine the plasma concentra-tions of ginsenosides Rg1,Re and Rb1,and DAS 2.0 software was used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters. RESULTS:Compared with monotherapy group,the plasma concentration of ginsenosides Rg1 in combination group was increased,CL was de-creased,t1/2 and MRT were prolonged,and AUC0-144 h was increased;the plasma concentration of ginsenosides Re was increased,Ke was decreased,t1/2 was prolonged,MRT was shortened,and AUC0-144 h was increased;the plasma concentration of ginsenosides Rb1 was decreased,Ke was increased,t1/2 and MRT were shortened,and AUC0-144 h was decreased,with significant differences(P<0.01 or P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Shenmai injection combined with naloxone can slow down the removing of ginsenosides Rg1 and Re in vivo,and obviously the plasma concentration of Shenmai injection is higher than monotherapy group;speed up the removing of ginsenosides Rb1,and the plasma concentration of Shenmai injection is lower than monotherapy group obviously.

Bio-heat transfer in the tongue body is studied combining the mechanism of tongue inspection in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Parameters such as the temperature of lingual surface, the blood perfusion of the dog's tongue and so on are measured and the influences of the blood perfusion, the arterial blood temperature, the arterial cross-sectional areas and positions on the temperature distribution in the cross-sections are studied. Then the two-dimensional temperature fields in different cross-sections are numerically solved by the finite element method (FEM). The results show that the vascular cross-sectional areas vary with the elasticity change of the vessel walls resulting from the variation of the blood perfusion. And the temperature distribution in the cross-section mainly depends on the arterial cross-sectional areas and positions. The results can help to analyze the bio-heat transfer characteristic of the tongue. According to this method, the sectional temperature fields in whatever place of the tongue can be calculated under different blood perfusion and on the condition that the influence of the venous blood temperature on the temperature field of the tongue is considered. We can further probe into the relationship between the temperature fields of the lingual surface and that of cross-sections. This can provide the foundation for further investigation into the bio-heat transfer mechanism and the calculation on three-dimensional temperature fields of the tongue.

OBJECTIVETo map and identify the disease gene for the epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma (EPPK) in a Uighur family of China.
METHODSBlood samples were collected and genomic DNA was extracted from 48 members of the Xinjiang Uighur family. Six microsatellite repeat sequences on chromosome region 17q12-q21 and 12q13 were selected based on the two known candidate genes KRT9 and KRT1. Two-point linkage analysis and haplotype analysis were performed. Exons and their flanking intronic sequence of the KRT9 gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and sequenced.
RESULTSData from the marker D17S1787 suggested linkage and yielded a Lod score of 8.65 at theta=0 by using MLINK software. Genotypes and haplotypes were acquired. The disease gene of the EPPK family is located between markers 17/TG/36620115 and D17S846. Chromosome 12q13 region was excluded with the negative Lod score obtained in marker D12S96 (Lod=-infinity at theta=0). No pathogenic mutation was detected in the KRT9 gene.
CONCLUSIONThe disease gene of the EPPK family is located on chromosome region 17q21.2. The keratin 9 gene might not be the disease gene.

Bonding of brackets to dental fluorosis has always been a difficult problem for clinicians. At present, clinical research has adopted several methods to facilitate bracket bonding, including prolonging etching time, enamel microabrasion, enamel ground, using adhesion promoter and laser etching. Prolonging etching time is suitable for mild-to-moderate dental fluorosis with easy chair-side operation; however, over-etching may cause severe tooth damage. Microabrasion can be applied to mild dental fluorosis while removing pigment deposition simultaneously; however, rubber dam protection is needed. Enamel ground can improve the bond strength to all kinds of dental fluorosis at the price of removing a relatively large amount of superficial enamel. Adhesion promoters might improve the bond strength of moderate to severe dental fluorosis; however, the current results conflict with one another. This needs further verification using larger-sample clinical trials. Laser etching has no effect on improving bond strength; however, it can remove pigment without destroying tooth enamel, which is worth further modification and enhancement.

Purpose:
Cavernous nerve injury induced erectile dysfunction (ED) is a refractory complication with high incidence in person under radical prostatectomy. Studies have shown that relaxin-2 (RLX-2) plays a vital role of endothelial protection, vasodilation, anti-fibrosis and neuroprotection in a variety of diseases. However, whether penile cavernous erection can benefit from RLX-2 remains unknown. The purpose of the experiment was to explore the effects of RLX-2 on ED in the rat suffering with bilateral cavernous nerve injury (BCNI).
Materials and Methods:
The rats were divided into three groups: Sham group was underwent sham operation, BCNI+RLX group or BCNI group was underwent bilateral cavernous nerve crush and then randomly treated with RLX-2 (0.4 mg/kg/d) or saline by continuous administration using a subcutaneously implanted micro pump for 4 weeks respectively. Then, erectile function was evaluated by electrical stimulation of cavernous nerves. Cavernous nerves and penile tissues and were collected for histological evaluation.
Results:
Erectile function of rats with BCNI was partially improved after RLX-2 treatment. The BCNI group had lower expression of relaxin family peptide receptor (RXFP) 1, p-AKT/AKT, p-eNOS/eNOS ratios than sham operation rats, but RLX-2 could partially reversed these changes. Histologically, the BCNI+RLX group had a significant effect on preservation of neurofilament, neuronal glial antigen 2 of penile tissue and nNOS of cavernous nerves when compared with BCNI group. RLX-2 could inhibited the lever of BCNI induced corporal fibrosis and apoptosis via regulating TGFβ1-Smad2/3-CTGF pathway and the expression of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, caspase3.
Conclusions
RLX-2 could improve erectile function of BCNI rats by protecting cavernous nerve and endothelial function and suppressing corporal fibrosis and apoptosis via RXFP1 and AKT/eNOS pathway. Our findings may provide a promising treatment for refractory BCNI induced ED.
