There is endothelial hyperpermeability in sepsis,trauma,ischaemia-reperfusion injury,acute respiratory distress syndrome and thrombosis,while an important mechanism underlying this process is increased paracellular leakage of plasma fluid and protein because of cytoskeleton contration under the role of histamine, thrombin,vascular endothelial growth factor and activated neutrophil. Structural changes initiate with agonist-re-ceptor binding,followed by activation of intracellular signalling molecules,then phosphorylate alter the hyperme-ability of cell-cell adhesion. Targeting key signalling molecules that mediate endothelial-junction-cytoskeleton dissociation demonstrates a therapeutic potential to improve vascular barrier function during inflammatory injury.

The microbial transformation of buflomedil by Cunninghamella blakesleana AS 3.153 was studied, as well as a microbial model which can be used to mimic metabolism of buflomedil in mammal was established. Experiments were conducted to screen the capabilities of four strains of Cunninghamella species to transform buflomedil, in which C. blakesleana AS 3.153 was selected for a preparative biotransformation. Furthermore, the microbial model was established based on the transformation condition optimization. The parent drug and its metabolites produced by C. blakesleana AS 3.153 were detected by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method and three metabolites were identified while two of them were new found metabolites. Two major metabolites, para-O-desmethyl buflomedil and 12-C-oxidated buflomedil, were isolated by semi-preparative HPLC. Based on the comparison between different species, the microbial transformation of buflomedil by C. blakesleana AS 3.153 is more similar to the metabolism of buflomedil in human and Beagle dog than that in rat.

Objective To approach the effect of different vasopressor on hemodynamics, volume responsiveness, fluid volume balance, renal function and prognosis in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) complicated with septic shock.Methods A prospective single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted. ARDS patients with septic shock admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital from January 1st, 2015 to May 1st, 2016 were enrolled. The patients satisfied ARDS Berlin diagnostic criteria, over 15 years old, needing vasopressor after fluid resuscitation were enrolled. The patients were divided into norepinephrine group (NE group) and terlipressin group (TP group) by randomise number table derived by computer. Patients in TP group were given terlipressin (0.01-0.04 U/min) with an intravenous pump, while those of NE group were given norepinephrine (> 1μg/min) with an intravenous pump, and the target mean arterial pressure (MAP) was maintained at 65-75 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa). Hemodynamics and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) were monitored by pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO). The volume responsiveness of patient was evaluated by passive leg raising (PLR) test, and cardiac index (CI) change (ΔCI ≥ 10%) served as positive volume responsiveness. The differences in hemodynamics, EVLWI, oxygenation index (OI), lactate clearance rate (LCR), rate of positive volume responsiveness, urinary output, fluid volume balance, renal function, and prognostic indicators were compared between the two groups.Results Fifty-seven patients with ARDS complicated with septic shock were enrolled, with 26 patients in NE group, and 31 patients in TP group, thebaseline data in both groups was balanced with comparability. Compare with NE group, 48-hour and 72-hour heart rate (HR) in TP group was significantly slowed (bpm: 82.1±6.8 vs. 87.6±7.4, 81.3±6.1 vs. 85.6±8.3, bothP < 0.05), 72-hour central venous pressure (CVP) was significantly decreased (mmHg: 9.4±2.6 vs. 10.9±3.0,P < 0.05), but no significant difference was found in HR, MAP, CVP, CI, EVLWI, OI and LCR at other time points between the two groups. 48-hour and 72-hour positive volume responsiveness rate in TP group were significantly increased as compared with those of NE group (74.2% vs. 46.2%, 64.5% vs. 38.5%, both P < 0.05), urinary output on the 2nd day (mL/24 h: 2342.8±704.1 vs. 1944.6±684.3) and fluid volume balance (mL: -319.7±54.8 vs. -169.6±27.2) were significantly decreased (bothP < 0.05). There was no significant difference in positive volume responsiveness rate, urine output, fluid volume balance, and the level of serum creatinine at other time points between the two groups. There was no statistically significant difference in the following features between TP group and NE group: duration of mechanical ventilation (days: 8.41±2.97 vs. 9.67±3.56), length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay (days: 12.84±4.47 vs. 14.77±5.01), total length of hospital stay (days: 19.34±7.37 vs. 21.07±8.41), and 28-day mortality (29.0% vs. 30.8%, allP > 0.05).Conclusions Compared with norepinephrine, terlipressin for ARDS patients with septic shock is more conducive to restrict fluid load, improve the renal perfusion and increase urine output. However, in both groups therewas no significant difference in the efficiency of stabilizing hemodynamics, shortening the duration of mechanical ventilation, reducing ICU or hospital days and decreasing 28-day mortality.
