2.Dissolution Comparison of Terazosin Hydrochloride Tablets and Capsules from Different Manufacturers
China Pharmacist 2015;18(10):1813-1817
Objective:To compare the dissolution of domestic terazosin hydrochloride tablets and capsules to provide reference for clinical use. Methods:The dissolution of the products from different manufacturers was investigated respectively in 4 kinds of media:pH 1. 0 hydrochloric acid solution,pH 4. 5 phosphate buffer solution,pH 6. 8 phosphate buffer solution and water. The dissolution tests were carried out by a paddle method at the stirring speed of 50 r·min-1 and an HPLC method was used to determine the dissolution rate. The dissolution behavior of the samples from different manufacturers was compared by a similar factor method. Results:The do-mestic tablets showed higher similarity with the reference formula, and the dissolution behavior of the capsules had significant differ-ence. Conclusion:The calculation method for the specification in some manufacturers is different from that of the reference prepara-tion, which leads to the difference between the testing preparation and the reference preparation, and should be paid attention in clini-cal use.

Grass carp reovirus (GCRV), a disaster agent to aquatic animals, belongs to Genus Aquareovirus of family Reoviridea. Sequence analysis revealed GCRV genome segment 8 (s8) was 1296 bp nucleotides in length encoding an inner capsid protein VP6 of about 43kDa. To obtain in vitro non-fusion expression of a GCRV VP6 protein containing a molecular of fluorescence reporter, the recombinant baculovirus, which contained the GCRVs8 and eGFP (enhanced green fluorescence protein)genes, was constructed by using the Bac-to-Bac insect expression system. In this study, the whole GCRVs8 and eGFP genes, amplified by PCR, were constructed into a pFastBacDual vector under polyhedron (PH) and p10 promoters, respectively. The constructed dual recombinant plasmid (pFbDGCRVs8/eGFP) was transformed into DH10Bac cells to obtain recombinant Bacmid (AcGCRVs8/eGFP) by transposition. Finally, the recombinant bacluovirus (vAcGCRVs8/eGFP) was obtained from transfected Sf9 insect cells. The green fluorescence that was expressed by transfected Sf9 cells was initially observed 3 days post transfection, and gradually enhanced and extended around 5days culture in P1(Passage1) stock. The stable high level expression of recombinant protein was observed in P2 and subsequent passage budding virus (BV) stock. Additionally, PCR amplification from P1 and amplified P2 BV stock further confirmed the validity of the dual-recombinant baculovirus. Our results provide a foundation for expression and assembly of the GCRV structural protein in vitro.

[Objective]To evaluate the cytocompatibility of chitosan-alginate scaffolds through in vitro cytoxicity experiment,cell-material co-culture experiment and in vivo implantation test.[Method]Chitosan-alginate scaffolds with longitudinal,paralleled multi-channels were produced via freeze-drying. Bone marrow derived stromal cells (BMSCs) were cultivated with the leach liquor. The cytotoxicity of scaffold was analyzed using MTT assay after 1,3 and 5 days of culture.Scanning electron microscopy was conducted after 3,5 and 7 days of BMSCs culture on the chitosan-alginate scaffold in vitro. Immunofluorescence detection was performed after implanting BMSCs and chitosan-alginate scaffolds in vitro in acute hemi-transaction spinal cord injury.[Result]The cytotoxicity of chitosan-alginate scaffold was in grade 0-1. Scanning electron microscopic observation indicated that the cells adhered to and grew on the surface of scaffold,arranging in a directional manner after 3 days of co-culture. NF200 and NSE fluorescence detection proved that a great many BMSCs were survival in the scaffold after 6 weeks,and that some transplanted cells differentiated into neuron-like cells.[Conclusion]Chitosan-alginate scaffold has a satisfactory cytocompatibility and may be an ideal tissue engineering scaffold material.

Objective To investigate the suppression effect of RNA interference(RNAi) on the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR) of ovarian cancer SKOV3 cell line. Methods SKOV3 cells were transfected with synthetic EGFR sequence-specific dsRNA by lipofectamin 2000.The expression level of EGFR mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting,respectively.The proliferation of transfected SKOV3 cells was detected by WST-1 cell proliferation assay.The abilities of adhesion,migration and invasion were detected by cell adhesion assay,cell migration assay and Matrigel invasion assay,respectively. Results The suppression rates on EGFR mRNA and protein by sequence-specific dsRNA-EGFR were 73.65% and 58.94%,respectively.The cell proliferation was inhibited by 22.54%,35.76% and 31.07%,respectively at 24,48 and 72 h after transfection.The adhesion of sequence-specific dsRNA transfected SKOV3 cells for 30 min and 90 min were reduced by 12.11% and 18.66%,respectively.The migration and invasion of SKOV3 cells were decreased by 25.47% and 22.08%,respectively. Conclusion The down-regulation of EGFR expression of ovarian cancer by sequence-specific dsRNA can lead to the suppression of proliferation,adhesion,migration and invasion of ovarian cancer cells.

MethodsA combination of stratified random sampling and typical sampling was made on 445 married women of reproductive age in six counties in Yunnan, Guizhou, Qinghai and Tibet provinces, a field survey on their utilization of maternal care services. ResultsTheir average prenatal detection rate is 78.24%, a level lower than the national rural average of 93.7% and grade-4 rural average of 81.2% in 2008; their post partook rate is 30.7%, lower than the national rural average of 54.3% and grade-4 rural average of 58.9% in the same period; their average coverage rate is 52.18%, a level lower than the national rural average of 87.1%and grade-4 rural average of 64.3% in 2008. ConclusionThe maternal care utilization is found to be low for women in minority areas. Effective solutions are expected for payment of indirect expenditure of hospital delivery; better health education for enhancing health knowledge and health awareness of minority women; effective incentive mechanism for village doctors, consolidating the base of the three-level healthcare network.

Objective To evaluate the clinical outcome of stent placement in the superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome. Methods Twelve patients with stenosis of the superior vena cava and/or its main tributaries underwent placement of a self-expanding endovascular Wallstents (11 men,1 woman,mean age 51 years). Results Until death or completion of the study,the SVC syndrome was successfully controlled in 92% of the cases (11/12). There were no early procedure-related complications such as early occlusion,or migration of the stent. The recurrence rate was 16.7%. Conclusion Percutaneous venous stent placement in the superior vena cava is a relatively safe and simple procedure. In majority of cases,the symptoms of the SVC syndrome are relieved immediately and completely. Complications are rare.
