Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of pharyngeal spraying recombinant human interfe-ron alpha 2b (rhIFNα2b) in the treatment of herpangina in children.Method:s A prospective, multicenter, rando-mized, opened and controlled study was carried out in 11 hospitals in Anhui province from August 2018 to March 2019.According to the time of admission, 180 patients diagnosed as herpangina were prospectively and randomly divided into rhIFNα2b treatment group and Ribavirin control group.On the basis of giving both groups the heat-clearing, detoxifying and anti-infection treatment, the patients in treatment group received pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b 9 g/L saline solution[1 million IU/mL, 0.1 million IU/(0.1 mL·press)], and the patients in control group were treated by pharyngeal spraying Ribavirin (0.5 mg RBV/press, 150 press), 3 presses per time, 4 times per day, continuous administration for 5 days for both groups.Those who recovered in advance were no longer given medication.All patients were observed to fully recover.The clinical efficacy and the disappearing time of symptoms and signs between two groups were compared, and the safety of pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b for patients was evaluated.Result:s All of the 180 patients completed the study, including 90 cases in the treatment group and 90 cases in the control group.There was no statistically significant difference in terms of gender, age, weight and course of illness before treatment between the two groups (all P>0.05), which had clinical comparability.The apparent efficiency of the treatment group [63.3% (57/90 cases)] was significantly higher than that in the control group [38.9% (35/90 cases)] and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=10.934, P=0.004); no significant difference in the total efficiency between the treatment group [96.7% (87/90 cases)]and the control group [92.2% (83/90 cases)]was observed ( χ2=2.924, P=0.169). The duration of fever[(32.59±20.73) h vs.(45.72±26.96) h], hyperemia[(76.48±23.12) h vs.(92.44±24.31) h], herpes[(72.99±25.77) h vs.(85.09± 26.62) h], salivation[(45.44±24.96) h vs.(54.42±31.20) h] and anorexia[(62.70±23.99) h vs.(78.71±30.54) h] in the treatment group were significantly shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Before treatment, the serum levels of tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α) [(13.02±4.41) ng/L vs.(13.57±9.27) ng/L], interleukin-6(IL-6) [(26.48±11.31) ng/L vs.(30.15±15.55) ng/L] and C-reactive protein(CRP)[(19.34±14.11) mg/L vs.(19.83±14.57) mg/L]were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were(7.26±1.99) ng/L and (2.42±0.73) ng/L in the treatment group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(12.09±6.39) ng/L and (7.32±11.51) ng/L](all P<0.05), but no significant difference in serum levels of CRP between the two groups was observed ( P>0.05). The comparison on positive rate of virus in pharyngeal swab between the treatment group [65.3% (32/49 cases) and 40.6% (13/32 cases) respectively] and the control group[66.7%(36/54 cases) and 41.0% (16/39 cases), respectively]before and after therapy showed no significant difference (all P>0.05). During the treatment, no serious adverse reactions were observed in the two groups.The incidence of adverse reactions was 1.1% (1/90 cases) in the treatment group and 5.6% (5/90 cases) in the control group.In addition, the serum hemoglobin level of children in the control group after treatment was significantly lower than that before treatment and that in the treatment group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with pharyngeal spraying ribavirin, pharyngeal spraying rhIFNα2b can greatly improve the clinical efficiency, accelerate the disappearance of clinical symptoms and signs, and shorten the total course of disease, and is more safe and worthy of clinical application.

OBJECTIVE: To synthesize and identify rotundic acid esters derivatives, and to evaluate in vitro antitumor activity. METHODS: Using rotundic acid as raw material, rotundic acid esters derivatives were synthesized by 28-esterification, 3β and 23-position hydroxyl group combined with acid anhydride. The structure of rotundic acid esters derivatives were identified by HRMS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and physicochemical properties. The in vitro antitumor activities were evaluated by MTT assay against paclitaxel (positive control), rotundic acid and rotundic acid esters derivatives with human cervical cancer cells HeLa, human malignant melanoma cells A375, human lung adenocarcinoma cells SPC-A1 and human liver cancer cells HepG2 (take IC50 as an indicator). RESULTS: Totally 6 kinds of rotundic acid esters derivatives were synthesized, i.e. rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 1), 3, 23-O-di(acetyl) rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 2), 3, 23-O-di(propionyl) rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 3), 3, 23-O-di(butyryl) rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 4), 3, 23-O-di(phthaloyl) rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 5) and 3, 23-O-di(succinyl) rotundic acid methyl ester(compound 6). Compared with paclitaxel, the antitumor activity of compound 5 and compound 6 to Hela, A375, HepG2 and SPC-A1 was similar to it, and there was no significant difference between them (P>0.05); the IC50 of rotuntic acid and other compounds decreased with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In the study, 6 kinds of rotundic acid esters derivatives are synthesized and compound 5 and compound 6 have significant antitumor activity in vitro, which can provide reference for further study.
