On isolated rabbit portal vein preparations, silybin shifted the cumulative concentration-response curves for NA, KCl, and CaCl2 to right, and depressed their maximal responses with an IC60 of 0.04, 0.43, and 0.07 mmol/L, respectively. On thoracic aorta, the cumulative concentration-responses induced by KCl and CaCl2 were inhibited by silybin with an IC50 of 41.4 and 1.4 mmol/L,respectively, whereas the NA induced responses were not affected. The results suggest that silybin may have a weak calcium antagonistic effect, especially on portal vein.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in the clinical nutrition therapy for patients with parenteral nutrition-associated liver dagame (PNALD),and to promote the rational use of nutrition drugs. METHODS:Clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment of a case of PNALD,and suggested adjusting 5% Glucose and sodium chloride injection 500 mL to 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 500 mL,30% Long-chain triglycerides 250 mL to 20% Medium/long chain fatty emulsion 250 mL,8.5% Compound amino acid injection(18 AA)1000 mL to 8% Compound amino acid injection(15 AA)750 mL;addition-ally using 20%Alanyl glutamine injection 100 mL and 10% ω-3 Fish oil fat emulsion injection 100 mL inall in oneparenteral nutrition(PN)formula. The remaining recipes remain unchanged. Reduced glutathione and S-methionine were also adopted for pro-tecting liver and receding jaundice,and the amount of PN was decreased gradually and replaced by enteral nutrition (EN). RE-SULTS:Physicians adopted the suggestions of clinical pharmacists,and liver function of the patient recovered to normal. CON-CLUSIONS:Main factors of PNALD include medication time of PN,types and intake of lipid,over nutrition. Clinical pharmacists provide pharmaceutical care in nutritional treatment for patients,which can assure effective and safe use of nutritional drugs,and reduce the occurrence of complication and ADR.

Objective To explore the protective effects of puerarin on CCl 4-induced acute hepatic injury of rats. Methods Acute hepatic injury model was induced by CCl 4. Before and after low-dose (40 mg/kg) or high-dose (200 mg/kg) of puerarin was given, the levels of AST, ALT in serum, and liver index, and SOD activity, MDA content in serum and liver tissue were measured. Liver pathological changes were also observed. Results Puerarin reduced the serum levels of AST, ALT obviously (P

OBJECTIVE:HPLC method was established for the determination of dehydroepiandrosterone(DHEA)in tablets.METHODS:The chromatographic system consisted of ?-Bondapak C18 column and mobile phase of methanol-water(75∶25)with a detection wavelength at 292nm.RESULTS:The linear range of DHEA was 0.2～1.0mg/ml,r=0.9 999.The recovery rate was 99.13%(RSD=0.42%).CONCLUSION:This method is simple and accurate for determination of DHEA in tablets.

Objective To identify the function and mechanism of MR1 in proliferation of BEL-7402 cells.Methods siRNA targeting MR1 and negative control siRNA were synthesized and transfected into BEL-7402 cells using Lipofectamine 2000.The silencing effect of MR1 siRNA was determined by semi-RT-PCR.SRB assay,colony formation assay and growth curve assay were used to investigate whether MR1 siRNA regulated cellular proliferation.Cell cycles were assessed by flow cytometry.G2 arrest reagent nocodazole was used to show the potential effect of MR1 siRNA on G1 arrest.The expression of Cyclin D1 was determined by Western blotting.Results(1)MR1 mRNA significantly decreased in BEL-7402 cells 24 h after MR1 siRNA transfection.(2)MR1 siRNA induced the down-regulation of cell growth.The expression of Cyclin D1 in MR1 siRNA tranfected BEL-7402 cells decreased significantly.(3)Flow cytometry results showed that MR1 siRNA markedly decreased G2 phase population with nocodazole treatment,and distinctly increased G1 phase population.Conclusion The gene MR1 is involved in the proliferation of BEL-7402 cells.MR1 siRNA causes inhibition of the proliferation of BEL-7402 cells.One of the mechanisms ofMR1 siRNA on the proliferation of BEL-7402 cells is the induction of G1 arrest.

Aim To observe the protective effects and explore the possible mechanism of lycopene on hepatic injury induced by the combining use of isoniazid(INH) and rifampicin(RFP) in rats.Methods Chronic hepatic injury model was induced by INH and RFP.Low dosage,middle dosage and high dosage of lycopene(10,20,30 mg?kg-1 body weight) were given to protect liver injury.The serum level of AST and ALT,liver index,contents of malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathion(GSH) and superoxide dismutase(SOD) in liver were measured.Hepatic pathological changes were also observed after giving lycopene.Results Lycopene could reduce the liver index,the serum level of AST and ALT and the content of MDA,raise the liver GSH content and promote the activities of SOD in liver tissue in rats.Degeneration and necrosis of liver tissues were relieved.Conclusion Lycopene has protective effects on the hepatotoxicity in rats induced by the combination of INH and RFP for a long time,and the mechanisms is related to of antioxidation action of lycopene possibly.

Objective To demonstrate the clinical outcome of bilateral gluteus maximus musculocutaneous flap in conjunction with continuous postoperative negative pressure wound therapy in reconstruction of sacral soft tissue defects.Methods From January, 2008 to April, 2013, 18 patients (8 males and 10 females, aged from 34 to 78 years old) with full-thickness sacral soft tissue defects were treated.The size of the defects after initial debridement ranged from 3.0 cm × 2.0 cm to 18.0 cm × 14.0 cm, with the exposure of sacrum or ligament.Bilateral gluteus maximus musculocutaneous flap were applied in all the patients.Two drainage tubes were placed on each side of the flaps during the surgery and suck for 10 to 12 consecutive days after the operation.Results The size of the harvested flaps ranged from 12.0 cm × 8.0 cm to 18.0 cm × 12.0 cm, and all the donor sites of the flaps were closed with primary suture.Thirty-five flaps in 17 patients survived without any complication.Partial necrosis of one flap was found in 1 patient and managed successfully with conservative dressing change.Fourteen patients were followed-up ranged from 8 months to 2.5 years (mean follow-up was 18 months).Color and texture of the flaps were satisfactory and no recurrence of sacral defect was noted.Conclusion Bilateral gluteus maximus musculocutaneous flap in conjunction with continuous postoperative negative pressure wound therapy may serve as a useful option for fullthickness sacral soft tissue defects.
