Objective:To optimize the clinical dosage regimen of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium extended release ( ER) tablets based on the PK/PD parameters. Methods:Totally 30 healthy subjects ( half male and half female) were randomly divided into three groups, and orally administered the ER tablets respectively under fasting condition, before the meal and after the meal, and the optimal administration time was determined by comparing the pharmacokinetic characteristics. The subjects in the three groups were ad-ministered the ER tablets respectively at low, medium and high dosage, and the optimal dosage and dosing interval were determined based on the PK/PD parameters. Results:Under fasting condition, the AUC of amoxicillin [(32.2 ±15.0) μg·h·ml-1] was sig-nificantly lower than that before the meal [(41.7 ±1.92) μg·h·ml-1] and that after the meal [(42.6 ±17.7) μg·h·ml-1]. In contrast, the AUC of clavulanate acid after the meal [(1.89 ±0.54) μg·h·ml-1] was significantly lower than that under fasting condition [(2.55 ±0.76) μg·h·ml-1] and that before the meal [(2.58 ±0.76) μg·h·ml-1] (P<0.05). Amoxicillin and clavulanic acid displayed linear pharmacokinetics within the range of 1000-4000 mg and 62. 5-250 mg, respectively. After a single o-ral administration of amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium ER tablets at low, medium and high dose, the duration of blood concentra-tion above the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC, 2. 0 μg·ml-1) (T> MIC) in 12 h was 5. 5, 7 and 10 h, and the percentage was 46%, 58% and 83%, respectively, and T> MIC in 12 h was 4. 5, 6 and 8 h, and the percentage was 38%, 50% and 67%, re-spectively when MIC was 4. 0μg·ml-1 . Conclusion:It is suggested that amoxicillin and clavulanate potassium ER tablets be taken at the start of a standard meal, 2 tablets per time, twice daily, which is sufficient to achieve T> MIC of 40% -50%.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell(UC-MSCs)trans-plantation for the graves disease(GD)mice .Methods Thirty two mice were divided into 3 groups as following :normal control group (G0) ,GD control group (G1) ,UC-MSCs group(G2) .Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure the level of TSAb in blood serum and the expression of FT4 was measured by chemiluminescence .Thyroid sections were stained with hema-toxylin and eosin(HE)for histological examination .Splenocytes were stained with multicolor immunofluorescence and detected by flow cytometry to analyze the percentages of CD1dhiCD5+CD19+ regulatory B cells(Bregs) .Expressions of IL-10 and TGF-βmR-NA in spleen organization were measured by Real-time PCR .Results At 26 weeks ,the level of TSAb in blood serum in G2 was more significantly decreased than in G1(P<0 .05) ,and the level of CD19+ B in spleen in G2 was also more significantly decreased than in G1(P<0 .05) ,however ,the percentage of CD1dhiCD5+CD19+ Bregs splenocytes and the levels of IL-10 and TGF-βmRNA in spleen organization were more significantly increased than in G1(P<0 .05) .The concentration differences of TSAb in serum was negatively correlated with the percentage differences of CD1dhi CD5+ CD19+ Bregs ,however ,positively correlated with the expres-sion differences of IL-10 and TGF-βmRNA in spleen before and after transplantation .Conclusion Activation of Bregs may be one of the mechanisms of UC-MSCs therapeutic effect on GD mice .

Objective: To evaluate the bioavallability and bioequivalence of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated pellets capsules. Methods:A randomized crossover design was performed in 32 healthy male volunteers. A single oral dose of 20 mg rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated pellets capsules ( test preparation) or enteric-coated shell capsules ( the reference capsules) was administrated under fed conditions. The wash period was 7 days. The blood samples were collected at different time points. The concentration of rabeprazole in plasma was determined by an LC-MS/MS method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS 3. 0 software and the bio-equivalence was evaluated. Results:The maln pharmacokinetic parameters of the two formulations were shown as follows:T1/2 of (2. 20 ± 0. 83)h and(1. 951 ± 0. 515)h,Tmax of (3. 88 ± 1. 11)h and(4. 64 ± 1. 504)h,Cmax of (401. 06 ± 170. 75)ng·ml-1 and(394. 63 ± 215.64)ng·ml-1,AUC0→t of (918.42 ±427.39)ng·h·ml-1 and (994.49 ±520.73)ng·h·ml-1, and AUC0→∞ of(937.30 ± 445.13)ng·h·ml-1 and(1 011.69 ±534.77)ng·h·ml-1. The analysis showed that the maln pharmacokinetic parameters of the two formulations had no significant differences(P>0. 05) except for Tmax(P<0. 05). The relative bioavallability of rabeprazole sodium enteric-coated pellets capsules was (99. 80 ± 7. 20) %. Conclusion:Compared with the reference capsules, rabeprazole sodium enter-ic-coated pellets capsules show the property of higher dispersion degree, milder influence from food, more rapid release and absorption. The enteric-coated pellets capsules and the reference capsules are bioequivalence.

In the past ten years, 52 patients with double-chambered right ventricle (DCRV) were operated on in Xijing Hospital. They constituted 2.2% (52/1881) of all patients with congenital heart diseases. Of them, there were 32 males and 20 females, whose ages ranged from 4.5 to 30 years old. In one patient there was pure DCRV, and the remaining 51 patients DCRV was associated with other congenital cardiac anomalies, in which VSD was the most common (50), followed in order by pulmonary stenosis (6), aortic valve prolapse (4), atrial septal defect (2), and subaortic stenosis (1). The repair of DCRV and other intracardiac defects was done through the right ventricolotomy in 47 cases and through the right ventricolotomy plus atriotomy in 2 cases. In another 2 cases the operation was done via the right atriotomy and 1 case pulmonary arteriotomy, and only VSDs were closed, but DCRVs were missed. The major postoperative complications included cardiac arrhythmia (11) and low output syndrome (8). Three patients died, with the operative mortality of 5.8%. In this series, according to characteristics of the anomalous muscle bundle and its resulting obstruction, we divided 52 case DCRVs into two types: fibromuscular diaphragmatic type (24 cases, 44.7%) and muscular bundle-gap type (28 cases, 55.7%). In both types, there were not only hypertrophied anmalous muscle bundles on the septal side, but also hypertro-phied ventricoinfundibulum fold on the parietal side. In a few cases, the ventricoinfundibulum fold was more hypertrophic than the anomalous muscle bundle on the septal side.

Aim To investigate whether liver X recep- tors attenuate high glucose-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells through inhibiting nuclear factor-NF-κB.Methods The lentiviral vector of LXRs was constructed and H9C2 cells cultured in high glucose were infected.The H9C2 cells were divided into 6 groups:control group (5.5 mmol·L -1 glucose),mannitol group(5.5 mmol ·L -1 glucose +27.5 mmol·L -1 mannitol),high glu-cose group(33 mmol·L -1 glucose),green fluorescent protein(GFP)group LXRαgroup,and LXRβgroup. The inhibition rate of H9C2 cells,the mRNA of Bax, Bcl-2,the protein content of NF-κB,Bax,Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3,and the cell apoptosis were com-pared among these groups.Results LXRs overexpres-sion significantly attenuated high glucose-induced in-crease in Bax NF-κB,cleaved caspase-3 and cell ap-optosis(P <0.05),and increased high glucose-induced decrease in Bcl-2.Conclusion Liver X receptors at-tenuate high glucose-induced apoptosis in H9C2 cells through NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effects of recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor(rhG-CSF)on CCl4 induced chronic liver injury.Methods Male BALB/C mice were randomly allocated into treatment and control groups.The mice model were established by injection with daily for 7 days,while the control mice were received the same volumes of saline.The mice were sacrificed to get weight,liver mass and spleen mass.The count of CD34+ cells and Thy-1+ cells were analyzed by flow cytometry and immunohistochemical staining,respectively.Results The ratio of liver/spleen was 15.94±1.20 and 10.52±0.66 on day 8 and 15 in treatment group,respectively,while those were 7.14±1.68 and 8.31±1.71 in control group,respectively(all P value＜0.05).But there was no significant difference in body weight and liver mass between two groups(P＞0.05)The concentration of album in treatment group was raised rapidly on day 15.The concentrations of alanine aminotransferase (ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),hyaluronic acid(HA)and laminin(LN)on day 30 were significantly lower in treatment group compared to control group(P＜0.05).There was significant difference in score of liver fibrosis on day 30 between two groups(treatment group:5.49±2.16,control:8.74±1.86,P＜0.05).The number of CD34+ cell and Thy-1+ in treatment group(on day 8:9.54±2.24 and 5.10±1.25 and on day 15:8.18±1.93 and 7.53±1.39,respectively)were higher than those in control group(on day 8:5.40±0.99 and 3.25±0.75;on 15 days:4.46±0.77 and 3.35±0.86,all P value＜0.05).Conclusion The rhG-CSF may improve the reparation of chronic liver injury,and may provide a novel method in treatment of liver fibrosis.
