Basic & Clinical Medicine 2006;0(12):-
HDL or apolipoprotein A-Ⅰ,the major protein of HDL particles,protect host against vascular endothelial dysfunction.HDL binding to scavenger receptor-BI activates eNOS for increasing NO.SR-BI and Endothelial lipase(EL) play a critical role in the regulation of plasma HDL.Incubation of HDL with vascular endothelial cells promotes prostacyclin synthesis.Some proteins such as paraoxonase that cotransport with HDL in plasma,have antioxidant properties.HDL inhibits TNF-? dependent expression of adhesion molecules in vascular endothelial cells and interferes with apoptosis,proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells.

Objective To observe the clinical effect and adverse reaction of oxycodone sustained-release tablet and morphine tablet in dose titration therapy on moderate and severe chronic cancer pain. Methods Sixty patients suffering from moderate and severe cancer pain, without using opioid drugs, were divided into oxycodone sustained-release tablet group and morphine tablet group by random digits table method with 30 cases each. The patients in oxycodone sustained-release tablet group were administered 10 mg oxycodone sustained-release tablet every 12 h, and the patients in morphine tablet group were administered 5 or 10 mg morphine tablet whenever needed. The total dose of opioid drugs was acquired after 24 h, and was converted into equal dose of oxycodone sustained-release tablet. The condition of pain control and adverse reaction were observed and recorded in a week. Results During the titration, the number of daily outbreak pain and daily medication in oxycodone sustained-release tablet were significantly lower than those in morphine tablet:(1.27 ± 1.53) times vs. (4.87 ± 1.98) times and (3.37 ± 1.78) times vs. (5.10 ± 2.20) times, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). At the first day after titration, the pain relief rate of oxycodone sustained-release tablet was significantly higher than that of morphine tablet:83.33%(25/30) vs. 60.00%(18/30), and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). While at the third day after titration, there was no statistical difference in the pain relief rate between 2 groups (P>0.05). At the first day after titration, the incidence of daily outbreak pain in oxycodone sustained-release tablet was significantly lower than that in morphine tablet:23.33%(7/30) vs. 53.33% (16/30), the rate of reaching steady pain control state was significantly higher than that in morphine tablet: 86.67% (26/30) vs. 63.33% (19/30), and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical difference in the incidence of daily outbreak pain, rate of reaching steady pain control state at the third day after titration, time of reaching steady pain control state, and incidence of adverse reaction (P>0.05). Conclusions The pain relief rate and side effect of oxycodone sustained-release tablet is similar to that of morphine tablet in dose titration therapy on moderate and severe chronic cancer pain, but analgesic effect is faster than morphine tablet. Oxycodone sustained-release tablet decreases the number of outbreak pain and relieves patients′ pain in the titration process. Oxycodone sustained-release tablet may have advantage of time and effect, which is worth to be widely used in clinical therapy.
