China Pharmacy 2017;28(19):2651-2654
OBJECTIVE:To study the effect and its mechanism of dexmedetomidine(Dex)on inflammatory response in septic mice. METHODS:Mice were randomly divided into normal control group,model group,miR-146a inhibitor (50 mg/kg)+Dex (50 μg/kg)group,Dex low-dose,medium-dose,high-dose groups(10,30,50 μg/kg),10 in each group. Except for normal con-trol group,other groups were intraperitoneally injected lipopolysaccharide to induce septic models,intraperitoneally injected rele-vant medicines after 0.5 h. After drug intervention for 6 h,miR-146a expression,IRAK1 and TRAF6 mRNA expressions in periph-eral blood mononuclear cells in each group were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction method. IRAK1,TRAF6 protein expressions in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in each group were detected by Western blot method. TNF-α,IL-6 levels in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent method. RESULTS:Compared with normal control group,miR-146a expression,TNF-α and IL-6 levels,IRAK1,TRAF6 mRNA and protein expressions in peripheral blood mononu-clear cells in model group were increased(P<0.01). Compared with model group,miR-146a expression in peripheral blood mono-nuclear cells in Dex medium-dose,high-dose groups were increased;TNF-α and IL-6 levels,IRAK1,TRAF6 protein expressions were decreased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);while IRAK1,TRAF6 mRNA expressions changed less obviously (P>0.05). Compared with Dex high-dose group,miR-146a expression,in peripheral blood mononuclear cells in miR-146a inhibitor+Dex group was de-creased;TNF-α and IL-6 levels,IRAK1,TRAF6 protein expressions were increased (P<0.05 or P<0.01);while IRAK1, TRAF6 mRNA expressions changed less obviously(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Dex can inhibit the inflammatory response in sep-tic mice. The mechanism may associate with inducing miR-146a expression and inhibiting the 2 important adaptor proteins IRAK1, TRAF6 expressions in Toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-κB pathway.
3.Discussion on the Humanity and Reasonableness in Community Health Service
Chinese Medical Ethics 1994;0(06):-
Community Health Service ( CHS) not only contains the treatment, but also considers the care as its responsibility. Therefore, its character of humanity service can be showed in the practice. However, besides the humanity, CHS needs some reasonable forms such as laws, systems as well, to protect its development and community habitants health. The author thinks that when the humanity and reasonableness conjunct on the solution and prevention for the medical tangle which occurs in the CHS, maybe the medical Ttreatment will come back to its birthday on which it ensured "care and console" as its duty, and it also can decrease the medical danger at length, then serve for the society and benefit for the people.

The discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) has introduced a new paradigm into gene regulatory systems. Since inception, computational methods have been an invaluable tool complementing experimental approaches, and many discoveries have been obtained through combination of experimental and computational approaches. The knowledge that has been accumulated about the principles of miRNAs and target recognition were reviewed. The currently available computational methodologies and software for prediction of miRNA and their target genes also have been discussed.

Aim To study the pharmacokinetics of midazolam tablet after a single oral dose in Hui,Koreanand Han healthy volunteers.Methods Ten Hui, ten Han and nine Korean healthy volunteers were involved in the study. Each subject received a single dose of 15 mg midazolam tablets. The plasma concentration was determined by HPLC. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS2.0 software and compared by one-way analysis of variance or KrusKal-Wallis rank test for PK parameters of different nationalities.Results There were statistically significant differences between Hui,Korean and Han nationality for PK parameters C_(max),MRT_(0~12 h) and T_(max)(P<0.05).The ranges of interindividual variation in the different ethnic groups and the same ethnic group were large.There were not satisfactory differences between young males and females for all pharmacokinetic parameters(P>0.05).Followimg oral administration, doublepeaks in midazolam blood concentration-time profiles were observed in more than half of subjects.Conclusion There are large interindividual variation and statistically significant difference in pharmacokinetics of midazolam tablet between Chinese Hui, Korean and Han.These observations suggest the dosage of midazolam should be adjusted in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the correlation between Chlamydia pneumoniae (Cpn) infection and sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSHL). Methods One hundred and twenty patients with SSHL were enrolled as SSHL group, and another 120 healthy subjects were served as control group. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated, and the expression of Cpn-specific antigen (Cpn-Ag) and Cpn-DNA in PBMCs was detected by direct immunofluorescence test and PCR, respectively. Specific antibodies (IgA, IgG and IgM) to Cpn were determined by microimmunofluorescence test.Results There was no significant difference in the positive findings between direct immunofluorescence test and PCR (P>0.05). There were significant differences in the positive rates of Cpn-Ag and Cpn-IgM for acute infection between these two groups (P<0.01), and there were significant differences in the positive rates of Cpn-IgA and Cpn-IgG for chronic infection between these two groups (P<0.05). Conclusion There is a significantly higher prevalence of Cpn in patients with SSHL. Cpn infection may be a possible cause for SSHL.

Objective: To study the cellular immune responses and the anti-tumor effects induced by peptides derived from onco-protein HER2/neu. Methods: Two HER2/neu peptides compatible with H-2Kd binding motif as tumor rejection antigens were synthesized. The ability of inducing peptide-specific CTLs and suppressing the tumor growth in BALB/c mice immunized by HER2/neu peptide was analyzed. Results: HER2/neu peptides could promote the proliferation of BALB/c lymphocytes both in vitro and in vivo. HER2/neu peptide-specific CTLs could be induced from peptide-immu-nized BALB/c mice, which showed specifically killing effects on HER2/neu positive SP2/OHER2 cells but not on HER2/neu negative SP2/O cells. Moreover, the growth of SP2/OHER2 tumor were significantly suppressed in BALB/c mice immunized with HER2/neu peptides. Conclusion: These results suggested that it was feasible to use MHC-I epitopes derived from tumor-specific antigens as vaccines for cancer immunotherapy.

Homogenous fat extract was injected through the femoral vein to induce respiratory distress syndrome in 15 dogs. It was found that the changes of blood gases, chest x-ray films, and lung pathology of the dogs were similar to those of adult respiratory distress syndrome.The pathogenesis was extensive pulmonary fat embolism with complement activation and free radicals formation. Vitamin E was consumed during antiperoxidation. It is believed that this model serves better for the study of respiratory distress syndrome.

The therapeutic effects of prostaglandin E1 on respiratory distress syndrome induced with homogeneous fat extraction were observed in dogs.It was found that prostaglandin E1 could alleviate hypoxemia,reduce pulmonary capillary permeability,and attenuste pulmonary edema.The mechanism of the therapeutic efficiency of prostaglandin E1 on pulmonary damages is that prostaglandin E1 can inhibit the adherence of polymorphonuclear netttrophils and the genesis of oxygen free radicals,and protect the pneumocyte type Ⅱ.
