OBJECTIVE: To establish and a method for determination of allicin and the fingerprints of intravenous emulsion containing garlic oil. METHODS:GC method was applied to determine allicin in preparation and the fingerprints of intravenous emulsion containing garlic oil. The separation was performed on HP-5 (30 m?320 ?m?0.25 ?m) column with the flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1 and inlet temperature of 250 ℃. The column temperature was 60～220 ℃ and rose by temperature-programmed method with N2 as carrier gas. The temperature of FID detector was 300 ℃ with furan as internal standard. RESULTS: The linear ranges of allicin were 0.05～2.4 mg?mL-1(r=0.999 8). The average recovery were 102.5% (RSD=0.41%,n=9). There were 17 mutual peaks in the fingerprints of intravenous emulsion containing garlic oil. The RSD of intra-day relative retention time and relative peak area were less than 0.05% and 8% respectively. After preparation setting for 48 h at room temperature, the RSD of relative retention time and relative peak areas were less than 0.08% and 15% respectively. The RSD of them in the replicate test were less than 0.04% and 8%, respectively. CONCLUSION: The method is accurate, reliable, simple and available for quality control of intravenous emulsion containing garlic oil

Although adhesion molecules have long been recognized to be differentially expressed on naive and effector/memory T cells,it has recently been found that a number of chemokine receptors are also differentially expressed on T cells,depending on their Ag experience and type of polarization. Recent data suggests that chemokines and their receptors are essential elements that regulate the positioning of T cells and their partners for priming and T helper 1 (Th1)- or Th2-mediated responses,therefore,are probably the most promising targets for treating immune diseases.

Objective To purify BMSCs by a simple Colony-Forming system and identify BMSCs in vitro.Methods BMSCs were planted at low-density ( 10/cm2 ) in the early stage of isolation,additional cells were scraped until a colony formed,secondly seeded those Colony-Forming cells at low-density.This process was repeat again when passaged cells formed another colony.This so called Colony-Forming selection was repeated several times until highly purified cells were obtained.Biological characters of BMSCs were observed.The surface antigens of BMSCs were identified by flow cytometry.The multipotentiality of BMSCs was assayed for differentiation into either osteoblasts or adipocytes.Results Homogeneous cells were obtained after BMSCs were passaged twice to thrice by Colony-Forming system.These BMSCs highly expressed positive surface antigens of BMSCs ( CD29 in 98.8％,CD90 in 98.4％ ) meanwhile seldom expressed negative surface antigens of BMSCs (CD31 in 2.6％,CD45 in 3％ ).BMSCs efficiently differentiated into osteoblasts and adipocytes.Conclusions Colony-Forming system is a simple and effective way to get highly purified BMSCs in a short time.

Objective To explore a method for development of carbon tetrachloride-induced cirrhotic model in rabbit and establish a portal vein delivery system in this model.Methods Male New Zealand white rabbit was subcutaneously injected carbon tetrachloride twice weekly,and the liver pathology and hepatic hydroxyproline content were examined after 12 weeks of injection.Portal vein catheterization was introduced through the terminal branch of mesostenium vein.The injection end of the catheter was embedded subcutaneously in the abdominal wall of the animal.The portal delivery was implemented by percutaneous puncture of the injection cap.Results After 12 weeks' of carbon tetrachloride administration,the rabbit liver developed typical pseudo lobule,and the liver hydroxyproline content increased 3.5 times compared to normal control.The portal vein delivery system could be maintained as long as 12 weeks.Conclusion A successive method to induce rabbit liver cirrhosis is developed,and a simple and economic animal portal vein delivery system is introduced.

AIM　To investigate the transdermal delivery effects of cyclosporine A solubilized in mixed micelles composed of phospholipid and different surfactants. METHODS　When applied onto the excised abdominal skin of the mice occlusively, the enhancing effects of various mixed micelles on the penetration of cyclosporin A were assessed by an in vitro permeation technique. In vivo study was carried out by topical application of sodium cholate-phospholipid mixed micelles onto the mice skin and drug blood concentration was detected. RESULTS　In vitro, mixed micelles containing different surfactants displayed distinct permeability and corresponded to the following order: sodium cholate > sodium deoxycholate > Trition X-100 > Tween-20. In vivo, peak drug concentration was detected at 5 h and after that the concentration fell down slowly. CONCLUSION　Mixed micelles were shown to be efficient carrier for the transdermal delivery of the lipophilic polypeptide when kept in solution during the application process.

Objective To explore the role of OAZ gene in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythe-matosus (SLE) by using RNA interfering technique. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from SLE patients were collected. Each sample was equally divided into four groups for cell culture in 96 well plates. Specific siRNA for OAZ and GAPDH were concordantly added to the experimental group and the positive control group, while nonspecific siRNA was added to the negative control group and only culture medium was added to the Mock control group. Cells and supernatants were harvested after culturing for 72 hours, then RNA was extracted and reverse transcripted to cDNA. OAZ, Id1, Id2, Id3, Id4 mRNA expression levels were analyzed by using real-time PCR. Levels of IFN-γ, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12, IL-21, CCL2, ANA in the supernatant were tested by ELISA. Relationships between the expression levels of OAZ mRNA with levels of cytokines and ANA were analyzed. Results OAZ, Id1, Id2, Id3 gene mRNA expression levels (△Ct: 12.5±1.4, 8.9±1.5, 4.3±0.8, 8.04±1.1) in the experimental group were significantly decreased comparing to those in the negative control group (△Ct: 10.2±1.1, 6.5±1.2, 2.4±1.3, 6.2±1.2 respectively, P<0.05). Levels of IFN-γ, IL-10, IL-12, IL-21 and ANA in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the negative control group (P< 0.05), but level of CCL2 was higher than the negative control group (P<0.05). Difference of OAZ mRNA expression levels (△△Ct) between the experimental group and the negative control group was negatively correlated with changes of ANA, IL-21 levels, but positively correlated with changes of Th1/Th2, CCL2. Conclusion OAZ siRNA can effectively reduce the expression of genes involved in the OAZ signaling pathway in SLE. OAZ may lead to abnormal production of ANA via regulating Id genes and cytokines.

Objective To investigate the dosimetric characteristics of hippocampal?avoidance prophylactic cranial irradiation ( HA?PCI ) in fixed?field intensity?modulated radiotherapy ( IMRT ) and volumetric modulated arc therapy ( VMAT) and the feasibility and risks of hippocampal avoidance. Methods Prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI) was performed for 16 patients with localized small cell lung cancer ( SCLC) who were treated in our hospital from January to August, 2014, and achieved complete response ( CR) after chemoradiotherapy, with a prescribed dose of 25 Gy in 10 fractions. CT localization image was fused with brain MRI image to contour the hippocampus on the fused image, and the boundary of the hippocampus was extended 5 mm outward to form the area for reduced dose. IMRT and VMAT plans with hippocampal avoidance were developed separately, and the dose distribution in the whole brain, the hippocampus, and the 5?mm area outside the hippocampus was evaluated for these two plans. Independent?samples t test was applied to evaluate the difference between the two groups. Results The mean hippocampal volume in the 16 patients was 2. 76 cm3 ( range 2. 56 ?3. 01 cm3 ) . The mean radiation dose ( Dmean ) in the hippocampus during IMRT and VMAT was 9. 04± 0. 20 Gy and 10. 32± 0. 28 Gy, respectively, reduced by 66. 0% and 61. 2%, respectively, compared with the prescribed dose ( P=0. 55);Dmean in the area for reduced dose during IMRT and VMAT was 13. 57± 0. 90 Gy and 14. 86± 0. 60 Gy, respectively, reduced by 49. 0% and 44. 1%, respectively, compared with the prescribed dose (P=0. 88). Conclusions HA?PCI in IMRT and VMAT meets the clinical requirements, and can reduce the dose in the hippocampus while ensuring the whole?brain radiation dose, and therefore can be applied in PCI and provide a technical support to protect the patient’ s neurocognitive function.

Objective: To study the effect of docetaxet (DOC) combined with 4-AP on human breast can-cer MCF-7 cells and to explore whether 4-AP could strengthen the effect of docetaxel. Methods: MTT assays were performed to investigate the effect of docetaxel, 4-AP and the combination of them on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells. Flow cytometry was employed to detect cell cycles and cell apoptosis after the cells were stained by PI alone or by Annexin-V and PI. Results: Docetaxel could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells in a dose- and time- dependent manner. 4-AP could inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells and the inhibitory rates were 11.9%±1.7%, 42.1%±3.2%, and 44.2%±1.6% at 24h, 48h and 72h after adding 4-AP. Moreover 4-AP (5mmol/L) could strengthen the effect of docetaxel. 4-AP (25μmol/L) could increase the effect of Docetaxel. Docetaxel at 5μmol/L could significantly increase the percentage of cells at G_2/M (53.58%± 1.44% vs. 8.83%±0.44%, P<0.01) and decrease the percentage of cells at G_0/G_1 (11.48%±0.14% vs. 63.89%±0.98%, P<0.01), indicating that docetaxel blocked MCF-7 cells at G_2/M phase. 4-AP at 5mmol/L could in-crease the percentage of MCF-7 cells at G_0/G_1 and decrease the percentage of cells at G_2/M (0.42%±0.17% vs. 8.83%±0.44%, P<0.05). Docetaxel could significantly increase late apoptosis and death of MCF-7 cells af-ter treatment over 24h (from 6.97%±0.75% to 20.77%±0.75%, P<0.05). Docetaxel combined with 4-AP could increase early apoptosis rate from 4.60%±0.91% to 12.20%±0.82% (P<0.05) and could increase late apopto-sis rate and death rate from 4.60%±0.91% to 12.20%±0.82% (P<0.05). Conclusion: Both docetaxel and 4-AP can inhibit the proliferation of MCF-7 cells. Docetaxel can increase the percentage of cells at G_2/M phase and 4-AP can increase the percentage of cells at G_0/G_1 phase. 4-AP could strengthen the inhibitory effect of docetaxel on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells through inducing cell apoptosis.
