Objective To study the effects of internal and external biliary drainage on inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression of Kupffer cells and serum tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in rats with obstructive jaundice. Methods Forty-eight male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to obstructive jaundice (OJ), sham operation (SH), internal biliary drainage (ID) and external biliary drainage (ED) groups with 12 each. Kupffer cells were isolated by in situ hepatic perfusion and digestion with collagenase type Ⅳ, and purified by cell culture attachment. The expression of iNOS mRNA of Kupffer cells was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and the serum TNF-α concentration was measured using ELISA method. Results The serum TNF-α level was increased in OJ group[ (110.84±26.3) pg/ml ]compared with SH group [-(88.4±17.9) pg/ml, (P=0.045)]. The TNF-α level in ID group[ (89.8±28. 3) pg/ml ]was significantly lower than that in ED group[ (118.64±22.7) pg/ml, (P=0. 011) ]and OJ group (P=0. 059). Expression of iNOS mRNA of Kupffer cells was significantly higher in OJ group (0. 824± 0. 24) compared with SH group (0. 384±0.35,P=0. 005). After relieving the OJ, the iNOS mRNA expression in ED group (0. 974± 0.48) was not suppressed (P=0. 321). On the contrary, the iNOS mRNA expression in ID group was suppressed and significantly lower than that in ED group (0. 59±0. 35) (P=0. 016). Conclusions Internal biliary drainage is superior to external drainage in terms of reversing the elevated serum TNF-α and in suppressing the iNOS mRNA expression of Kupffer cells in rats with obstructive jaundice.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate and compare the effects of luteolin on H9c2 cardiomyocytes damaged by two types of hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury, and to ensure its protective action against hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. METHODS: The H9c2 cardiomyocytes were cultured, and H/R injury model were induced by N2 saturation hypoxia chamber or sodium dithionite (Na2S2O4). In both models, the viability of cardiomyocytes, LDH leakage, MDA levels, T-SOD activities, ROS levels in cells, and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) changes were assessed to evaluate the effects of luteolin on H/R injury in H9c2 cells. RESULTS: Compared with control, luteolin significantly increased cell viability, T-SOD activity in H9c2 cardiomyocytes on H/R injury, and inhibited LDH leakage, MDA and ROS level, and improved ΔΨm(P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Luteolin has a protective effect against H/R injury in H9c2 cardiomyocytes, and may effectively sustain the balance between anti-oxidant defense and free radicals.

In recent years, the biopharmaceutical industry has grown rapidly, and the market size of monoclonal antibody drugs has increased significantly. Accurate structural characterization and quality control are the supporting technologies for the development of monoclonal antibody drugs. As a significant post-translational modification of antibody drugs, glycosylation has an important influence on its efficacy, stability, and immunogenicity. The existing literature usually uses liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to perform major glycosylation modifications of monoclonal antibody drugs. Characterization, there are few studies on low-abundance glycosylation, but the characterization and control of low-abundance glycosylation cannot be ignored. In this study, we have established a qualitative and quantitative analysis technology for N-glycans based on RapiFluor-MS reagent-labeled monoclonal antibody drugs. This method has a short sample processing time and high sensitivity. It can not only characterize the main glycoforms of three monoclonal antibody drugs (adalimumab, bevacizumab, and trastuzumab) but also can quantify low-abundance N-glycans. The results of the study showed that the main glycoforms specified in the Pharmacopoeia could be detected in different batches of monoclonal antibody drugs, but the content of N-glycans in different batches of samples is not identical. After that, we analyzed the N-glycans connection sites and glycoforms at the intact glycopeptide level, further enriching the N-glycans structure information of the monoclonal antibody. The qualitative and quantitative analysis technology of N-glycans based on RapiFluor-MS reagent-labeled monoclonal antibody drugs can realize the in-depth characterization and control of glycosylation modification of monoclonal antibody drugs.

The research and development of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is a rapidly developing field. From the first generation of murine mAbs to the fourth generation of fully human mAbs, the efficacy and safety of mAbs in the treatment of various diseases have been continuously improved. In order to regulate the development and evaluation of mAbs, drug regulatory agencies and pharmacopeias of America and China have tried to issue feasible test procedures and acceptance criteria for quality evaluation of mAbs and biosimilars. Mass spectrometry (MS) technique with high sensitivity, resolution, selectivity, and specificity has become an important tool to evaluate the quality characteristics of monoclonal antibody-related products or specify mAb quality. The research of MS-based monoclonal antibody study involves structure characterization, impurity analysis, pharmacokinetics/pharmacodynamics (PK/PD), etc. This review focuses on the current quality control requirements of mAb related products and the development of MS technique for mAb quality characterization and specification. It is expected to provide information and references for evaluating the quality of monoclonal antibodies under research and development.

CX-conjugated antigen(BSA-CX) were produced by methods of EDC.The spleen cells of BALB/C mouse immunized by BSA-CX were fused with SP2/0 plasmacytoma cells using PEG4000,and selected cultured with HAT and HT medium.A hybridoma cell line of 2H8-B1-F4 was secreened for specificity to CX,and cloned by limited dilution method for 3 times,which secrete high affinity and stable monoclonal antibodies against CX with indirect ELISA. The antibody was characterized by IgG1 isotype, the titers of antibody in cell supernatant and ascites were 1∶1000 and 1∶4?10~5,respectively.The mAb against CX was selective toward dicloxacillin, oxacillin with cross-reactivity of about 19.6% and 21.3%,which can be used to detect CX residues by competitive ELISA.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and safety of trans-umbilical NOTES to perform abdominal adhesion lysis using a flexible endoscope.Methods A 42-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with a complain of abdominal pain due to abdominal adhesion after hysterectomy.A gastroscope (GIF-2TQ260M,Olympus)was inserted into the peritoneal cavity through an incision(1.5 cm)of the umbilical opening.Pneumoperitoneum was established by the endoscopic air supply system using CO2 instead of air.Abdominal exploration showed that omentum and bowel were stuck to the scar of the low central peritoneum incision.Separation of the abdominal wall adhesions was performed with an IT knife and a hook knife respectively.After most of the adhesions were separated,bleeding was found from the isolated adhesion wound of the omentum and bowel.Hemorrhaged blood vessel was difficult to be found with the flexible gastroscope.Then a 5 mm Trocar was placed at the left lower abdomen and laparoscopic assistance was adopted to search the bleeding point.However,no bleeding site was found and the hemorrhage was stopped automatically.Residual adhesion lysis was conducted with laparoscopic assist.After the procedure,the umbilical incision was closed with absorbable suture,but lower left abdominal incision was left without suturing.Results The operation time was 40 minutes.The patient suffered from minus pain from the umbilical incision without need of treatment.She had normal diet and got out of bed after reconsious.She was discharged 2 days after the procedure without any complaints.Conclusion Trans-umbilical NOTES using a flexible endoscope for peritoneal adhesion lysis is safe and feasible,but the effectiveness remains to be further confirmed.
