A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method for quantification of sitagliptin in human plasma and urine had been developed. This method was applied to the pharmacokinetics study of sitagliptin tablet after single- and multiple-dosing in Chinese population. Plasma samples were prepared by a liquid-liquid extracted method, and urine samples were diluted. Compounds were analyzed by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode with a electrospray ionization (ESI) interface. Mobile phase consisted of methanol and water (85 : 15, v/v). The linear concentration range of calibration curve was 0.5-1 000 ng.mL-1. and 0.2-100 µg.mL , intra-run/between-run accuracy was 98.98%-103.69% and 97.63%-102.29%, intra-run/between-run precision was <5.51% and 4.26% for plasma and urine sample, respectively. The stability of sitagliptin stock solution was tested for 55 days at -30 °C. Sitagliptin was stable when stored under the following conditions: 24 hours in the autosampler after sample preparation; 24 hours at room temperature, after 3 freeze and thaw cycles (from -30 °C to room temperature), 40 days at -30 °C for plasma and urine samples. The absolute recovery in plasma was 71.1%, and no matrix effect was founded. This method was proved simple, specific, sensitive, rapid and suitable for pharmacokinetics study of sitagliptin in human being.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that craniocerebral injury can promote the repair of sciatic nerve injury in rats, but its precise mechanism remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE:To further explore the action mechanism of craniocerebral injury on the repair of sciatic nerve injury using morphology and histology.
METHODS:Sixty specific-pathogen-free healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups. Rats with craniocerebral injury and sciatic nerve injury were considered as the experimental group. Rats with simple sciatic nerve injury were considered as the control group. Classical Feeney method was used in models of craniocerebral injury and SunderlandV sciatic nerve injury. At 8 and 12 weeks after modeling, sciatic nerve index was detected. Masson staining and NF200 immunofluorescence staining were used to observethe nerve regeneration atthe anstomotic site. Transmission electron microscope was used to observe the number of regenerative axons.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 8 and 12 weeks after modeling, compared with the control group, gait and sciatic nerve index recovered better in the experimental group. In the experimental group, Masson staining showed fewer nerve membrane colagen fibers, and the axon arranged neatly.NF200 immunohistochemistry showed that in the experimental group, the density of regenerated nerves was high, and nerveswere regularly distributed. Transmission electron microscopy showed that in the experimental group, regenerative axons were regularly arranged, colagen scar was less, and myelin layer arranged regularly. Results suggested that the craniocerebral injury in rats may promote the repair of peripheral nerve injury by reducing scar colagen in nerve endings.

BACKGROUND:Recovery of motor and sensory function from peripheral nerve injury is relatively slow and incomplete. It is a difficult problem for orthopedic surgeons that mainly leads to the decline in the quality of life in patients.
OBJECTIVE: To conclude the methods and corresponding outcomes in peripheral nerve regeneration by analyzing the new treatment means for peripheral nerve injury.
METHODS:PubMed, Wanfang, CNKI databases were retrieved for relevant articles using key words of “nerve injury, regeneration”, and then retrieval data were sorted and analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In recent years, in-depth studies on peripheral nerve repair have been made in the folowing aspects: surgical mode, drug, cytokine, gene transfer and biomaterials as wel as traditional Chinese medicine. If the detect size is four times longer than the diameter of nerves, the nerve regeneration chamber can achieve good outcomes. The methods of restoring nerve continuity folowing nerve injury are developed from surgical anastomosis to photochemohistological method, thermal laser welding, plastic repair and other emerging technologies. Studies have found that plasminogen activator, nerve growth factor, neurotrophic factor, recombinant erythropoietin, human tissue kalikrein, B vitamins and their derivatives, herbal preparations, immunosuppressive agents al can promote nerve regeneration.

Objective To explore the relationship among single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of excision repair cross-complementing 1 (ERCC1) gene,chemotherapy sensitivity and clinical outcomes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) patients treated with platinum.Methods Six tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNP;rs11615,rs3212986,rs735482,rs3212955,rs12610134 and rs3212958) were chose from ERCC1 gene.The genotypes of 6 tagSNP were determined by Snapshot method in 220 EOC patients.Primary clinical outcomes parameter contained EOC patients'responses to platinum-based chemotherapy,progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analysed.Results The rs11615 C/T SNP of ERCC1,CC,CT and TT genotype frequencies were 53.1％,45.6％,1.4％ in responders to platinum-based chemotherapy,while 52.0％,35.6％,12.3％ in non-responders,respectively,in which there was significant difference between the two groups(P =0.002).Compared with the patients with CC genotype,the patients carrying TT genotype had a significantly poor response to platinum-based chemotherapy (OR =6.22,95％ CI:1.12-34.42).Similarly,the genotypes frequencies distribution of rs11615 C/T SNP of ERCC1 was different between the recurrence and non-recurrence group,death and survival group (all P ＜ 0.05).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the genotypes frequencies distribution of rs11615 C/T SNP of ERCC1 was associated with PFS and OS(P ＜ 0.01) of EOC patients.Cox's multivariate analysis suggested that patients with TT genotype had a shorter PFS (HR =2.19,95 ％ CI:1.14-4.22,P =0.009) and OS (HR =2.22,95 ％ CI:1.06-4.64,P =0.021) compared with those carrying CC genotype [adjusting for age,International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage,pathological type,grade and tumor residual size].The genotypes frequencies distribution of rs3212986,rs735482,rs3212955,rs12610134 and rs3212958 SNP of ERCC1 did not show the significant difference between the responders to platinum-based chemotherapy and non-responders.The other 5 tagSNP may not be associated with the PFS and OS of EOC patients (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The rs 11615 SNP of ERCC1 may become a valuable prognostic biomarker for EOC patients treated with platinum-based chemotherapy.

Objective To observe the effect of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) on intrapulmonary shunt fraction and arterial oxygenation during one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracoscope surgery.Methods Forty patients scheduled for thoracoscope surgery were randomly assigned to two groups ( n =20),group of TIVA (A) and group of intravenous anesthesia combined with inhalational anesthesia(B).After inducing and intubating,patients were assigned to maintenance of anesthesia with propofol ( group A)or with sevoflurane ( group B) in order to maintain a BIS between 40 and 60.Mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),SpO2 and Paw were measured in four phases,always in the lateral position,10min after beginning two-lung ventilation (TLV),15 min after beginning OLV (OLV + 15 ),30 rain after beginning OLV ( OLV + 30) and 60 min after beginning OLV ( OLV + 60).Blood samples were drawn simultaneously and analyzed within 5 min.The Qs/Qt at each phase was calculated.Adverse events including hypotension,bradycardia,hypoxemia,delayed emergence and restlessness in recovery period were recorded.Results In all patients,a decrease in PaO2 and an increase in the Qs/Qt occurred during OLV were observed.But PaO2 values in group A were significantly higher than those in group B ( 177 ±88 vs 125 ±63;150 ±65 vs 110 ±67;188 ±69 vs 128 ±52) ( P ＜0.05).The Qs/Qt in group B was significantly higher than those in group A (34.2 ±5 vs 28.8 ±2;38.4 ±8 vs 32.1 ±6;37.1 ±2 vs 29.5 ±2,P ＜0.05).MAP values in group A were significantly lower than those in group B at the phase:OLV + 15 and OLV +30(72 ± 10 vs 88 ± 14;74 ± 12 vs 89 ± 10) ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The incidence of hypotension and delayed emergence in group A was higher than those in group B ( 10 case vs 4 case;9 case vs 2 case).The incidence of restlessness in recovery period in group B was more than those in group A (9 case vs 3 case).The differences between two groups were significant ( P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Compared with sevoflurane-sufentanyl combined anesthesia,TIVA with propofol can efficiently decrease intrapulmonary shunt fraction and improve arterial oxygenation during OLV for thoracoscope surgery,which is good for the prevention of hypoxemia.
