Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2006;12(5):410-411
ObjectiveTo observe the combined effect and safety of Sodium Ozagrel and Low Molecular Heparin in the treatment of progressive cerebral infraction.Methods80 patients with progressive cerebral infraction were divided into experiment group and control group with 40 patients in each group. Sodium Ozagrel and Clexane both were used in the experimental group, but only Sodium Ozagrel was used in the control group. Platelet packing fraction and 4 items of blood clotting were examined before and 14 d after treatment. Neurofunctional defect was evaluated at the same time in the 2 groups.ResultsPlatelet packing fractions were significantly different when examined before treatment and 14 d after treatment both in 2 groups (P<0.05), but no difference between the 2 groups. The value of APTT 14 d after treatment in the experimental group was significantly increased (P<0.05), while this was not observed in the control group. Total effective power in experimental group was 89.7%, which was much higher than that in control group (77.5%). Neurofunctional defect evaluation in experimental group was significantly improved after treatment(P<0.05) compared with that in control. ConclusionSodium Ozagrel combined with Clexane is more effective on progressive cerebral infraction.

3.Transdermal drug delivery technology for brain-targeted drug delivery
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2023;57(8):2334-2340
Intracerebral delivery of drugs for the treatment of central nervous system disorders is usually limited by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). Transdermal drug delivery systems (TDDS) have the advantage of improving patient compliance and avoiding first-pass effects compared to intravenous, oral and intranasal drug delivery, and are an emerging non-invasive drug delivery route that facilitates long-term drug delivery to patients. The discovery of direct subcutaneous targeting of lymphatic pathways to brain tissue has made TDDS a new brain-targeted drug delivery strategy. At the same time, the development of nano-delivery technology has further facilitated the application of TDDS for targeted drug delivery to the brain. This review summarizes the mechanism of transdermal drug delivery into the brain and the application of TDDS in the treatment of brain diseases, providing new ideas and methods for the treatment of central nervous system diseases.

An electrochemical aptasensor for Pb2+ was constructed based on the layer-by-layer assembly of graphene (GR) and anthraquinone -2-sulfonic acid sodium salt (AQMS) on the surface of Pb2+ aptamer. The mercapto-modified Pb2+ aptamer was first anchored on a gold electrode. Then the highly conductive material of GR was adsorbed on apt through the unique π-π stacking interaction, which was further used for the assembly and signal amplification of the electroactive AQMS. Upon interaction with Pb2+ ions, the apt on the aptasensor undergone conformational switch from a single-stranded form to the G-quadruplex structure, causing the GR assembled with AQMS releasing from the electrode surface into solution. As a result, the electrochemical signal of AQMS on the aptasensor was substantially reduced. Base on this concept, a useful platform for detection of Pb2+ ions was constructed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the attenuation of peak currents (△Ipa ) showed linear relationship with the logarithm of Pb2+ concentrations (lgCPb2+) over the range from 5. 0×10-10 to 5. 0×10-8 mol/ L. The detection limit was estimated to be 6. 0×10-11 mol/ L.

The purpose of the study is to construct R8 peptide (RRRRRRRR) and pH sensitive polyethylene glycols (PEG) co-modified liposomes (Cl-Lip) and utilize them in breast cancer treatment. The co-modified liposomes were prepared with soybean phospholipid, cholesterol, DSPE-PEG2K-R8 and PEG5K-Hz-PE (pH sensitive PEG). The size and zeta potential of Cl-Lip were also characterized. The in vitro experiment demonstrated that the Cl-Lip had high serum stability in 50% fetal bovine serum. The cellular uptake of Cl-Lip under different pre-incubated conditions was evaluated on 4T1 cells. And the endocytosis pathway, lysosome escape ability and tumor spheroid penetration ability were also evaluated. The results showed the particle size of the Cl-Lip was (110.4 ± 5.2) nm, PDI of the Cl-Lip was 0.207 ± 0.039 and zeta potential of the Cl-Lip was (-3.46 ± 0.05) mV. The cellular uptake of Cl-Lip on 4T1 cells was pH sensitive, as the cellular uptake of Cl-Lip pre-incubated in pH 6.0 was higher than that of pH 7.4 under each time point. The main endocytosis pathways of Cl-Lip under pH 6.0 were micropinocytosis and energy-dependent pathway. At the same time, the Cl-Lip with pre-incubation in pH 6.0 had high lysosome escape ability and high tumor spheroid penetration ability. All the above results demonstrated that the Cl-Lip we constructed had high pH sensitivity and is a promising drug delivery system.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of prostate specific antigen (PSA) (fPSA, fPSA/tPSA, PSAD) combined with value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in the diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa) between total PSA (tPSA) 4- 10 μg/L. Methods From December 2013 to 2015 February , 56 elderly male patients with serum tPSA 4-10μg/L were enrolled. Pathological examination confirmed 26 patients with PCa and 30 patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The levels of tPSA and free PSA(fPSA) , fPSA/tPSA, Prostate specific antigen density(PSAD), ADC value according to the DWI, choline(Cho), creatine(Cre) and citrate(Cit) in MRS were analyzed, and ADC, (Cho+Cre)/Cit combined with PSAD and fPSA/tPSA in PCa diagnosis was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). Results The level of tPSA in PCa group and BPH group had no significant difference (P >0.05), but the levels of fPSA、fPSA/tPSA、prostate volume, PSAD, (Cho+Cre)/Cit, ADC had significant difference:(1.04 ± 0.14) μg/L vs. (1.22 ± 0.34) μg/L, 0.15(0.14- 0.16) vs. 0.17(0.15-0.18), (41.45 ± 5.70) cm3 vs. (48.70 ± 9.97) cm3, 0.17(0.15-0.18) ng/(ml·cm3) vs. 0.16(0.14-0.17) ng/(ml·cm3), 2.22 ± 0.59 vs. 1.17 ± 0.52, 0.98 ± 0.28 vs. 1.39 ± 0.24, P < 0.01 or < 0.05. The area under the curve of (AUC) fPSA/tPSA+PSAD+(Cho+Cre)/Cit、fPSA/tPSA+PSAD+ADC、fPSA/tPSA+PSAD+(Cho+Cre)/Cit+ADC were 0.932, 0.941 and 0.977, and the AUC of fPSA/tPSA+PSAD+(Cho+Cre)/Cit+ADC was the highest.

Objective To investigate the effect of compound catechu anti-diarrhea ointment on the expression of aquaporin3 (AQP3) in the colonic tissues of diarrhea rat model, and the mechanism thereof. Methods Forty SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:blank control group, model control group, positive control group and compound catechu anti-diarrhea ointment group. Rats were given 6 g blank matrix cream in model control group, 2 mL suspension of berberine in positive control group and compound catechu anti-diarrhea ointment in compound catechu anti-diarrhea ointment group, two times/d for 7 d. The rat model of diarrhea was established by using senna intragastric administration. The water content of feces was measured. The expression of AQP3 in colonic tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry assay. Results The water contents of feces were significantly higher in model control group (64.09±0.41)%than those of other three groups (F=53.879,P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the water content of feces between compound catechu anti-diar-rhea ointment group (48.83 ± 1.08)%and positive control group (46.87 ± 2.19)%. The AQP3-positive cells were mainly ex-pressed in the intestinal mucosa. The dyeing index was significantly lower in model control group (0.85±0.18) than that of other three groups (F=14.971,P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the dyeing index between compound catechu anti-diarrhea ointment group (1.30±0.18) and positive control group (1.37±0.14). Conclusion Compound catechu anti-di-arrhea ointment can significantly reduce the water contents of feces, which may be related to the increased AQP 3 expression in colonic tissues.
