China Pharmacist 2016;19(4):797-800
Objective:To prepare enteric-coated pellets of ( R)-rabeprazole sodium and investigate the drug release behavior in vitro. Methods:The pellets of ( R)-rabeprazole sodium were prepared by a fluid bed coating technology, and HPMC and Eudragit L30D-55 was used as the material of isolation layer and enteric coating, respectively. The similarity of in vitro drug release was com-pared between the reference preparation and the self-prepared preparation. Similar factor ( f2 ) was used to evaluate the similarity of re-lease curves. Results:The coating formula of ( R)-rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated pellets was as follows: the weight of HPMC E5 and Eudragit L30D-55 was 12. 0% and 45. 0%, respectively, and the plasticizer was 8. 0% of the weight of the polymers. The f2 of the reference preparation and the self-prepared preparation was more than 50, which indicated the release behavior was similar. Con-clusion:The release behavior of ( R)-rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated pellets is quite promising, and the preparation technology can be used in the industrial production.

Guided by aim of improving the survival rate of the injuries, damage control surgery (DCS) have undergone developments from simple gauze packing to planned resuscitation and reoperation for nearly a century, which leads to a great improvement in the treatments. In recent years, the concept of DCS has been more and more widely accepted and applied in many fields other than abdominal trauma. Besides, the technologies have been constantly standardized and the procedures have been more scientific. At the same time, some remarkable progress has been made in the research of DCS, such as new concepts of damage control resuscitation, permissive hypotension, and new technologies such as resuscitative balloon aortic occlusion and hybrid emergency surgery system.

Objective To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of intra-carotid infusion with cold sa line in rats with acute focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods 60 rats were randomly divided into six groups:sham operated group,normal infusion group,stroke group,local hypothermic group,local normothermic group,and systemic infusion group.Brain infarct volume and cerebral water content were analyzed 48 h after ischemia.Neurological deficits were assessed using the mNSS 24 h and 48 h after infarction.Results In the local hypothermic group,brain temperature was reduced to 33 to 34 ℃ within 5 to 10 minutes,and this significantly low temperature maintained to nearly 60 minutes after infusion continued.Physiological variables were not significantly different among each time point (P > 0.05).No significant morphological abnormality was found in brain sections stained with TTC and HE.Animals receiving local cold infusion significantly decreased infarct volume and brain water content compared to stroke group (P < 0.05).Both 24 h and 48 h mNSS in local hypothermic group was significantly lower than those in other groups (P < 0.05).Conclusions Intra-carotid infusion with cold saline can quickly and effectively reduce brain temperature and is a relatively safe cooling method.Local hypothermia significantly reduced brain infarct volume,decreased brain water content and improved neurological functional outcomes after brain ischemia.

Aim To investigate the effect of resveratrol (Res)on septic mice and LPS-insulted H9c2 cells,as well as its involved mechanisms.Methods By use of a mouse cecal ligation and puncture-induced septic model (CLP),the survival of septic mice was evalua-ted after resveratrol treatments.H9c2 cells were insul-ted by LPS and then treated with resveratrol,the mR-NA expressions of TNF-α,SIRT1 and other class III HDAC members were detected using RT-PCR and real-time PCR,Finally,the protein levels of nuclear p65, an important subunit of NF-κB,were measured in H9c2 cells using Western blot assay,to reveal the effect of resveratrol on LPS-induced nuclear transloca-tion of NF-κB.Results Compared with the control septic animals,intraperitoneal injection of resveratrol (1 or 5 mg·kg -1 ·d -1 )significantly increased the survival of septic mice.Furthermore,resveratrol signif-icantly increased mRNA expressions of SIRT1,SIRT2, SIRT6 and SIRT7 in LPS-insulted H9c2 cells.Res-veratrol also remarkably inhibited LPS-induced nuclear translocation of NF-κB.Conclusion An appropriate dose of resveratrol protects septic mouse hearts from the injury induced by LPS through the activation of SIRT family members and the inhibition of NF-κB pathway.

The aim of this work was to investigate guar gum/ethylcellulose mix coated pellets for potential colon-specific drug delivery. The coated pellets, containing 5-fluorouracil as a model drug, were prepared in a fluidized bed coater by spraying the aqueous/ethanol dispersion mixture of guar gum and ethylcellulose. The lag time of drug release and release rate were adjustable by changing the ratio of guar gum to ethylcellulose and coat weight gain. In order to find the optimal coating formulation that was able to achieve drug targeting to the colon, the effect of two independent variables (the ratio of guar gum to ethylcellulose and the coat weight gain) on drug release characteristics was studied using 3×4 factorial design and response surface methodology. Results indicated that drug release rate decreased as the proportion of ethylcellulose in the hybrid coat and the coat weight gain increased. When the ratio of guar gum to ethylcellulose was kept in the range of 0.2 to 0.7, and the coat weight gain in the range of 250% to 500%, the coated pellets can keep intact for about 5 h in upper gastrointestine and achieve colon-specific drug delivery. The pellets prepared under optimal conditions resulted in delayed-release sigmoidal patterns with T5% (time for 5% drug release) of 5.1-7.8 h and T90% (time for 90% drug release) of 9.8-16.3 h. Further more, drug release was accelerated and T90% of the optimum formulation pellets decreased to 9.0-14.5 h in pH 6.5 phosphate buffer with hydrolase. It is concluded that mixed coating of guar gum and ethylcellulose is able to provide protection of the drug load in the upper gastrointestinal tract, while allowing enzymatic breakdown of the hybrid coat to release the drug load in the colon.

Objective To explore the epidemiology,etiology and prevention strategy of early respiratory infections (≤1 month) in lung transplantation recipients with donation after cardiac death donors.Method The clinical data of donors and recipients,particularly on early respiratory infections,were retrospectively analyzed in 17 lung transplantations.Result From Jan.2015 to Apr.2015,12 episodes of early respiratory infections (≤ 1 month) in 17 lung transplantation recipients occurred (12/17,70.6%).The organisms most frequently involved were bacteria:Pseudomonas aeruginosa (4/26,15.4%),Klebsiella pneumoniae (4/26,15.4%),Staphylococcus aureus (3/26,11.5%),and Acinetobacter baumannii (3/26,11.5%).Of 26 bacterial strains,3 were Methecillin resistant Staphlococcus aureus,3 were carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumanni,2 were carbapenem resistant Pseudomonas cepacia,2 were extended spectrum b-lactamase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae,and one was carbapenem and quinolone resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Conclusion The morbidity of early infections is high in lung transplantation recipients.In our experience,bacterial respiratory infections are most common in the early post-transplant period (≤ 1 month).Incidence of Aspergillus spp.and Cytomegalovirus pneumonia is lower than before lung transplantation,probably due to the spread of universal prophylaxis.

Objective To observe the effects of extracts of ginkgo leaves (EGL) on acute myocardial infarction, acute myocardial ischemia and blood hemorheology.Methods The effects of EGL on acute myocardial infarction were observed in dogs model induced by the ligation of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery; effects on acute myocardial ischemia were observed on rats model caused by intravenous injection of pituitrin and effects on blood hemorheology were observed in rabbits. Results EGL significantly reduced the myocardial infarction area, decreased the activities of lactate dehydrogenase and creatine phosphokinase in dogs, reduced the elevation of ST segment of electrocardiogram in rats with myocardial ischemia and decreased whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity in rabbits. Conclusion EGL has protective effect against myocardial ischemic injury and can improve the parameters of blood hemorheology in rabbits. Its mechanism may be concerned with the reduction of the myocardial infarction area and infarction degree and the relief of acute myocardial ischemia.
