Objective:A study was conducted to observe and compare the efficacy and safety of endostar combined with peme-trexed in elderly patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma. Methods:Sixty advanced lung adenocarcinoma (ⅢB-Ⅳ) patients who never received any therapy were included. The patients were divided into two groups. One group comprised endostar treatment com-bined with pemetrexed (26 cases of males, 15 cases of females, and 11 cases of individuals aged 65 years old to 78 years old), and the other group comprised pemetrexed only (34 cases of males, 20 cases of female, and 14 cases of individuals aged 65 years old to 78 years old). The two groups were treated for 4 to 6 cycles, and evaluation of treatments was performed every two cycles. Results:The endostar group was re-treated for 80 cycles, and the average cycle was 3.1. The group without endostar was re-treated for 115 cycles. The short-term effects are as follows. The total effective rates (RRs) in the experimental and control groups were 23.1%and 14.7%, re-spectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The disease control rate (DCR) was not significantly different (P>0.05). For pleural effusion, RR and DCR were significantly better in the experimental group than in the control group (P<0.05). In the experimental group, compared with PD, the microvessel density (MVD) in the DCR showed higher expression, and a statistically signif-icant difference (P=0.03) was observed. In the control group, compared with PD, the MVD in the DCR also showed higher expression, but no significant difference (P=0.73) was observed. The long-term effects were as follows: median progression-free survival (PFS), median survival, and side effects between the two groups were not significantly different (P>0.05). Conclusion: Endostar combined with pemetrexed showed increase in total efficiency in elderly patients with lung adenocarcinoma, and malignant pleural effusion was controlled without increasing the toxicity of chemotherapy. MVD can be used as a predictor of Endostar application.

The purpose of this study is to find out anti-HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT)/protease (PR) activity and inhibition of virus replication in cell cultures of novel coumarin analogs and determine their structure-activity relationship. Coumarin derivatives have been demonstrated to inhibit the activity of HIV-1 RT/PR in cell free system. It also shows inhibition effects to HIV-1 replication in cell culture. Based on the Chinese traditional pharmacological characteristics and protein three dimension computer aided design, analogs of tetracyclic dipyranocoumarin were synthesized from natural leading compounds. We studied the relationship of antiviral effects and chemical structures via HIV-1 PR/RT enzyme models and cell culture model system. Seven compounds were designed and tested. Several compounds showed anti-HIV-1 activity in varying degrees, especially V0201 showed much higher anti-HIV-1 activity with 3.56 and 0.78 micromol x L(-1) of IC50 against HIV-1 PR/RT and 0.036 micromol x L(-1) against HIV-1 replication in PBMC cultures. V0201 with a novel structure may be a new leading compound. These new compounds are valuable for development of new anti-HIV drugs in the future.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes in characteristics of blood gas analysis of heatstroke rats residing in dry-heat environment of desert, and to provide a theoretical reference for its treatment in clinic.Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley (SD) adult rats under anesthesia were divided into six groups by random number table, with 8 rats in each group: namely mild, moderate, severe heatstroke groups and their corresponding control groups. The rats were placed in an artificial chamber with simulated desert dry-heat environment (temperature 41℃, humidity 10%) for about 70, 110, 145 minutes, respectively, to reproduce mild, moderate, severe heatstroke models. The rats in control groups were placed in a normothermic environment for corresponding duration. Abdominal aorta blood of each group was collected for blood gas analysis, and electrolytes were determined by a portable blood gas analyzer.Results① Arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) in mild heatstroke group was increased to (45.64±8.19) mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) was decreased to 0.84±0.08, pH value was lowered to 7.36±0.11, showing that respiratory acid-base imbalance was resulted. Base excess of extracellular fluid (BEecf) in moderate heatstroke group was decreased to (-3.00±0.76) mmol/L, HCO3- was decreased to (19.39±1.89) mmol/L, and pH value was lowered to 7.21±0.07, indicating that metabolic acid-base imbalance was aggravated gradually. The changes in parameters in severe heatstroke group gradually became more serious, and a significant difference was found as compared with those of mild and moderate heatstroke groups (PaCO2:F = 6.537,P = 0.006; SaO2:F = 5.174,P = 0.015; pH value:F = 10.736,P = 0.001;BEecf:F = 67.136,P = 0.000; HCO3-:F = 5.612,P = 0.011), manifesting an obvious combination of respiratory acidosis and metabolic acidosis, and a serious mixed acid-base disturbance was produced.② Compared with corresponding control groups, hemoglobin (Hb) was significantly increased in moderate heatstroke group (g/L: 15.31±1.84 vs. 13.28±0.94,t = 2.791,P = 0.014), Hb and hematocrit (HCT) in severe heatstroke group were significantly increased [Hb (g/L): 16.59±2.52 vs. 13.42±1.15,t = 3.224,P = 0.006; HCT: (53.50±6.63)% vs. (45.50±4.47)%,t = 2.828, P = 0.013], showing that the degree of dehydration was aggravated gradually from mild to serious degree.③ Serum sodium content in mild heatstroke group was normal (t = 0.665,P = 0.517), serum potassium content was lowered significantly (t = -2.526,P = 0.024); serum sodium content in moderate heatstroke group was increased significantly (t = 2.162,P = 0.048), serum potassium content was lowered significantly (t = -5.458,P = 0.000); and serum sodium content in severe heatstroke group rose obviously (U = 12.500,P = 0.038), and most of the rats showed hypokalemia, with a small proportion of rats showed obvious hyperkalemia (U = 19.500,P = 0.195).ConclusionsAcidosis, electrolyte disturbance, respiratory failure and dehydration in heatstroke occurred in dry-heat environment of desert. It indicates that resuscitation should focus on correction of respiratory acidosis, with simultaneous correction of metabolic acidosis, and one should be alert to correct dehydration and electrolyte disturbance. During the moderate phase and the serious phase, correction of aggravated metabolic acidosis should be reinforced, and the prevention and treatment of the severe dehydration and electrolyte disturbance should be undertaken actively.
