Tacrolimus is an widely used immunosuppressant in organ transplant patients for anti-rejection,and the quality of life and survival rate are greatly enhanced.At present,a growing number of scholars concerned with drug interactions of Western medicine and tacrolimus.However,the impact of planta medica on it was rarely systematically overviewed.This article explored the interaction of planta medica and tacrolimus.

The occurrence and development of malignant glioma are closely related to abnormal overexpression and activation of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signal transduction pathways.Targeted therapeutic drugs such as RTK inhibitors,RTK downstream signaling pathway inhibitors and multi-target inhibitors can targeting treat malignant glioma at molecular level,some of which have been investigated in clinical trials and achieved good therapeutic effects.

Objective To assess the safety and tolerance of single-dose and continuous intravenous drip of Xuesaitong saline injection in Chinese volunteers,thus to establish the effective clinical dosage.Methods Thirty-one healthy volunteers were randomized into 4 single-dose groups(100,200,400 and 600 mg respectively)and a multiple-dose group(400 mg,qd ? 14 d).Subjective symptoms,objective signs,vital signs including blood pressure,heart rate,respiration were observed,and routine blood tests,routine urine tests,hepatic function,renal function,clotting function,electrocardiogram were monitored after medication.Results In the single-dose groups,there were no abnormal findings in the vital signs and the lab examinations 0h,1h,8h,24h after medication.Dizziness without association with Xuesaitong occurring in one volunteers of the 200 mg group.It could subside after taking a rest.In the multiple-dose group,no significant changes were found in the vital signs and the lab examinations 4 d,8 d,12 d,15 d after the first dosing.Rash occurred in 2 volunteers,being considered potentially related to the drug and disappearing in one week.Conclusions Xuesaitong is safe at a dose of 100 ~ 600 mg in a single administration or at a dose of 400 mg once day for 14 days for male or female Chinese volunteers,400 mg being suggested for the clinical use.However,Further studies are needed to evaluate the safety of xuesaitong in the target population and allergic reaction should be observed.

AIM: To study the pharmacokinetics of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (MgIG),which was diluted by 5%glucose injection in a total volume of 250 mL, after a single and multiple intravenous dose in 10 healthy volunteers.　METHODS: MgIG 100 mg once daily for 9 d in the multiple-dose regiment. Plasma MgIG concentrations are measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Waters HPLC instrument was used with the Hypersil ODS2 C18 (5 μm, 300 mm×4.6 mm) column. The mobile phase was composed of 0.23 mol·L-1 phosphate buffer (pH=7.4):acetonitrile (79∶21).Flow rate was 1.0 mL·min-1 and column temperature was maintained at 40°C. The UV detector was set at 250 nm. The concentration time curves of MgIG were fitted to a two-compartment open model.　RESULTS: The pharmacokinetic parameters obtained from the single-dose study were as follows: cmax=(29±s 4) mg·L-1;t(1)/(2)α=(1.72±0.27) h;t(1)/(2)α=(23±3) h and AUC0-72=(448±75) mg·h·L-1. The steady-state pharmacokinetic parameters were: cssmin=(13±3) mg·L-1;cssmax=(42±6) mg·L-1;cav=(21±4) mg·L-1;t(1)/(2)α=(1.6±0.4) h;t(1)/(2)β=(24±4) h and AUCss0-24=(513±108) mg·h·L-1.CONCLUSION:The distribution and elimination rate of MgIG were not changed after multiple intravenous administration.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the safety and tolerance of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate(MgIG)injection in Chinese healthy volunteers,and provide safe and utility dosage scheme.METHODS:36healthy volunteers were randomly divided into4groups,each group administered respectively with single-dose intravenous infusion of100,200,300mg of MgIG and mul?ti-dose intravenous infusion of200mg of MgIG,qd for7consecutive days.Clinical symptoms,vital signs,electrocardiograms,routine blood and urine tests,as well as hepatic and renal function were observed before and after IV infusion of MgIG.RESULTS:In single-dose IV infusion of MgIG groups,the vital signs and laboratory indices did not change in the subjects immediately after or at1h,8h,24h after administration,as compared with before,while in multi-dose constant intravenous infusion group,the vital signs and laboratory indices at4days and8days after administration were in the normal range,as compared with before.CONCLUSION:Tolerance of healthy subjects to MgIG is good,and daily dosage of100mg to200mg is recommended for clinical use.

Objective:To observe the occurrence of ADRs in a hospital and analyze its correlative factors.Meth- od:131 ADR cases collected in a hospital in 2006 were categorized statistically analyzed.Result:121 of the 131 ADR ca- ses were induced by chemical drugs,and the other 10 cases,induced by the traditional Chinese drugs.In the 121 ADR ca- ses induced by chemical drug,the most were induced by intravenous injection,which occupied 49.62%.Antimicrobial drugs were the first category of drugs to cause ADRs,totaling 77 cases from 42 drugs.ADR most commonly manifested themselves in the injury of skin and appendents,which accounted for 52.89%(64 cases).There were 10 comparatively serious ADR cases.Conclusion:The occurrence of ADRs was related to many factors,such as administration route and drug varieties.ADRs monitoring and publicizing of ADRs knowledge should be strengthened so as to lessen and avoid the occurrence of ADRs.

Objective To evaluate the treatment effect of compound Chinese medicine on skeletal fluorosis in rats by Micro-CT.Methods Eighty-eight Wistar rats which had been weaned for two weeks were divided into four groups according to body weight [(91.1 ± 10.0)g] by the method of random number table:control group(16 mts),middle fluorine(MF)group(24 rats),high fluorine(HF) group(24 rats),and high fluoride and low calcium low protein (HF-LC-LP) group (24 rats).The amounts of fluorine of MF,HF and HF-LC-LP groups were 50,100 and 100 mg/kg,respectively.The contents of calcium and protein in HF-LC-LP group were half of MF and HF groups.Six months after treatment with fluoride,eight rats of each group were put to death with femoral artery bleeding.The rest 16 rats of each fluorosis group were divided into two groups,one was the control group and the other was fed with both fluorine and the compound Chinese medicine which simulated the actual situation of fluorosis area.Each rat of the treatment group was given the medicine 194 mg/100 g for six days every week.Daily urine samples were collected when the medicine had been used for 0,30 and 60 days.All the rats were put to death with femoral artery bleeding after the medicine had beengiven for 90 days,and limbs bones were dissected.Urine fluoride was tested by the method of fluoride ion selective electrode ; bone fluoride was tested by the method of high temperature ashing-fluoride ion selective electrode; bone mineral density(BMD),tissue mineral density(TMD),structure model index (SMI),trabecular thickness (Tb.Th),trabecular separation (Tb.Sp),anisotropy (a1/a3),trabecular connection density(Conn.D),the volume ratio of trabecular and bone tissue,the ratio of bone surface area and volume(BS/BV),and trabecular number(Tb.N) were detected by Micro-CT technology.Results The level of urinary fluoride of high fluoride and low calcium low protein treatment group [(11.01 ± 3.67)mg/L] was lower than that of its control group [(34.32 ± 9.50)mg/L,t =3.13,P ＜ 0.05] when rats were remedied with the compound Chinese medicine for 60 days.The level of bone fluoride of high fluoride treatment group[(275.38 ± 171.65)mg/kg] was lower than that of its control group[(701.67 ± 178.16)mg/kg,t =5.42,P ＜ 0.05] when rats were remedied withy the compound Chinese medicine for 90 days; bone fluoride of high fluoride and low calcium low protein treatment group[(313.26 ± 124.51)mg/kg] was lower than that of its control group[(794.66 ± 261.35)mg/kg,t =3.25,P ＜ 0.05].The differences of Tb.Th,Tb.Sp,a1/a3,Conn.D,BV/TV,BS/BV and Tb.N among groups were statistically significant(F =2.785,2.681,3.039,27.231,2.595,2.854,5.050,all P ＜ 0.05).Tb.Th[(0.04 ±0.01)mm] and Tb.Sp[(0.03 ± 0.01)mm] of middle fluorine treatment group were higher than those of their control groups[(0.02 ± 0.00),(0.02 ± 0.00)mm,all P＜ 0.05]; al/a3,Corm.D,BV/TV and Tb.N[(0.77 ±0.61),(510.91 ± 304.99)mm-3,(0.42 ± 0.06) and (13.58 ± 2.48)mm-1] were lower than those of their control groups[(1.11 ± 0.01),(2 403.69 ± 124.02)mm-3,(0.46 ± 0.03) and (18.12 ± 0.69)mm-1,all P ＜ 0.05].BV/TV(0.44 ± 0.04) of high fluoride treatment group were lower than those of their control groups(0.49 ± 0.00,P ＜ 0.05) ; Tb.Th[(0.04 ± 0.01) mm] was higher than that of its control group [(0.03 ± 0.00)mm,P ＜ 0.05].Conclusion The compound Chinese medicine may has therapeutic effect on rat skeletal fluorosis.
