The research aimed at investigating the physicochemical properties, stability and skin penetration in vitro of total alkaloids of Sophora flavescens nanoemulsion. Prepare total alkaloids of S. flavescens nanoemulsion and detect the determination of matrine and oxymatrine in the nanoemulsion using HPLC method. Transmission electron microscopy and laser particle size analyzer were utilized to detect the shape and size of the nanoemulsion respectively. And also the stability of nanoemulsion was studied under the conditions of low temperature (4 degrees C), normal temperature (25 degrees C) and high temperature (60 degrees C). Franz diffusion cell was used to research the transdermal absorption of nanoemulsion in vitro. The results found that the nanoemulsion we prepared presented appearance of rounded, uniform; its average diameter was (15.55 +/- 2.24) nm, and particle size distribution value was 0. 161; the appearance, diameter and percentage determination of total alkaloids of S. flavescens had no variations after 15 d under 4, 25, 60 degrees C respectively. The steady-state permeation rate was 4.564 1 microg x cm(-2) x h(-1), 24 h cumulative amount of penetration was 110.7 microg x cm(-2), which was 1.86 fold of 24 h cumulative amount of aqueous solution (59.41 microg x cm(-2)). All the results demonstrated total alkaloids of S. flavescens nanoemulsion had good permeability, and could provide a new preparation for its clinical application.

OBJECTIVETo study the efficacy of hepatitis B immunoglobulin (HBIG) combining hepatitis B vaccine in high risk infants born to HBsAg positive mothers through a follow-up study program.
METHODS184 infants (4 twin pairs) born to HBsAg carrier mothers who were consecutively recruited from December 2002 to August 2004 were followed. Major HBV serologic markers in all infants were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) when they were at birth, at 7th, at 24th and at 36th months.
RESULTS7 of the 184 infants were HBsAg positive at birth, making the transplacental intrauterine infection rate of HBV as 3.80% (7/184). 125 infants were followed up at 7th months and 108 infants were followed up at 24th and 36th months. Only 2 of the 7 infants born to HBsAg-positive and HBeAg-positive mothers were persistently sera positive for HBsAg, making the chronic infection rate of HBV as 28.57%. The other 140 infants were HBsAg negative during t he follow-up period. The rate o f detectable anti-HBs i ninfants was 7.02% at birth. After infants were immunized by HBIG combining hepatitis B vaccine, the anti-HBs-positive rate reached 92% at 7th months, and gradually descended thereafter. 72.04% of the infants at 24th and 60% at 36th months showed detectable levels of anti-HBs. There was significant correlation between the produce of anti-HBs in infants and HBsAg-positive at birth while HBsAg-positive and HBeAg-positive in mothers did not relate to the produce of anti-HBs in their infants. Of 39 infants born to HBsAg-positive and HBeAg-positive mothers, 25 showed detectable levels of HBeAg. During the follow-up peirod, HBeAg was still detectable in 2 infants who were also HBsAg positive and the others all became HBeAg-negative but no infant became HBeAg-positive.
CONCLUSIONThe efficacy of HBIG combining hepatitis B vaccine in high risk infants was fine.

Purpose To investigate the effect of grape seed proanthocyanidins on the phenotype-transforming marker protein expression of db/db renal cells in mice model of type 2 diabetes,and to explore the protective mechanism of grape seed extract on diabetic renal injury in db/db mice.Methods Male db/db diabetic mice were randomly divided into two groups:diabetic group (db/db group) and diabetic + grape seed proanthocyanidin extract group (db/db + GSPE).The same week-old male db/m mice was used as normal controls (db/m) and grape seed proanthocyanidin extract gavage treatment group (db/m +grape seed proanthocyanidin extract group,db/m + GSPE).The mice of db/db + GSPE group and db/m + GSPE group were administered daily with grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (5mg/kg) by gavage.Results Renal tissues of db/db diabetic mice showed increased expression of α-SMA,p-p38MAPK,pERK1/2 and 8-OHdG level,and down-regulation in E-cadherin expression compared with db/m group (P < 0.05).However,the alternations of α-SMA,p-p38,p-ERK1/2,E-cadherin protein levels,and 8-OHdG level,in db/db group were reversed by addition of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract (P < 0.05).Conclusion Grape seed proanthocyanidin extract inhibits the epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) associated protein,by decreasing ROS production,and activating p38 MAPK and ERK1/2.These findings suggest that grape seed proanthocyanidin extract provides a treatment option for diabetic nephropathy.

Objective: To analyze the efficacy of HLA-haploidentical peripheral hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT) following reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen to treat the patients with hematological malignancies who were older than 50 years old. Methods: Eighteen patients with hematological malignancies over 50 years were enrolled, including 8 male and 10 female patients. The median age of all patients was 52 (range: 50-66) years. Of them, 8 patients had acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , 2 chronic myelocytic leukemia (CML) , 5 myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) , 2 acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) , and 1 aggressive natural killer cell leukemia (ANKL) . All patients received fludarabine, cytarabine and melphalan with rabbit anti-human thymocyte globulin (FAB+rATG regimen) and transplanted with high dose non-T cell-depleted peripheral hematopoietic stem cells from donors. Enhanced graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and infection prevention were administered. Results: Fifteen days after transplantation, 16 patients achieved complete donor chimerism. One of them rejected the donor graft completely at thirty days after transplantation, and the other 2 patients had mixed chimerism 15 days after transplantation and converted to complete recipient chimerism at 30 days after transplantation. The cumulative incidence of acute GVHD (aGVHD) was 61.1% (95%CI49.6%-72.6%) . The incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD was 35.4% (95%CI 21.1%-49.7%) , whereas grade III-IV was 13.8% (95%CI 4.7%-22.9%) . The 2-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) rate was estimated at 38.2% (95%CI 25.5%-50.9%) . Patients were followed-up for a median of 14.5 months (range, 3-44 months) . The Kaplan Meier estimates of 2-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) was 72.6% (95%CI 60.1%-85.1%) and 63.7% (95%CI 49.2%-78.2%) , respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse and non-relapse-mortality (NRM) was 31.2% (95%CI 16.5%-45.9%) and 12.5% (95%CI 4.2%-20.8%) , respectively. Conclusion: RIC-haplo-PBSCT protocol can achieve better results in patients with hematologic malignancies over 50 years old.
