PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to explore non-steroid anti-inflammation drugs (NSAIDs) potency for pelvic floor muscle pain by measuring local concentration in a rat model. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We used nine NSAIDs, including nabumetone, naproxen, ibuprofen, meloxicam, piroxicam, diclofenac potassium, etodolac, indomethacin, and sulindac, and 9 groups of female Wister rats. Each group of rats was fed with one kind of NSAID (2 mg/mL) for three consecutive days. Thereafter, one mL of blood and one gram of pelvic floor muscle were taken to measure drug pharmacokinetics, including partition coefficient, lipophilicity, elimination of half-life (T1/2) and muscle/plasma converting ratio (Css, muscle/Css, plasma). RESULTS: Diclofenac potassium had the lowest T1/2 and the highest mean Css, muscle/Css, plasma (1.9 hours and 0.85+/-0.53, respectively). The mean Css, muscle/Css, plasma of sulindac, naproxen and ibuprofen were lower than other experimental NSAIDs. CONCLUSION: Diclofenac potassium had the highest disposition in pelvic floor muscle in a rat model. The finding implies that diclofenac potassium might be the choice for pain relief in pelvic muscle.

To compare and analyze the variation of PB1-F2 genes of Influenza A Viruses from Guangzhou during 2009 to 2011 with the Influenza A Viruses from all over the world, to lay the foundation of functional research and interaction mechanism of the PB1-F2 protein. 17 Novel H1N1 influenza viruses and 1 seasonal H1N1 influenza virus have been isolated from human in Guangzhou during 2009 to 2011 that were cloned into pMD 18-T Vector for sequencing. Then, 68 PB1-F2 genes of IAVs from human around the world were downloaded from GenBank database and analyzed using molecular biological software. The phylogenetic tree result shows that the PB1-F2 genes of IAV from the world separated into two main groups. There is high homology of PB1-F2 genes of one Seasonal H1N1 virus and Novel H1N1 viruses which were isolated in Guangzhou compared with the global Novel H1N1 viruses. And all of them got the 11 amino acids truncated protein by mutation included one seasonal H1N1 strain isolated by our laboratory. There is no variation of PB1-F2 genes of Novel H1N1 virus in Guangzhou compared with the worldwide strains. However, one seasonal H1N1 virus which isolated by our laboratory shows analogous truncated mutation of PB1-F2 of Novel H1N1 virus, it reveals that the PB1-F2 gene might has done the early reassortment between the Novel H1N1 virus and seasonal H1N1 virus.
