1.Recent research progression on morning blood pressure surge
Chinese Journal of cardiovascular Rehabilitation Medicine 2015;24(2):227-229
Many clinical studies have demonstrated that raised morning blood pressure surge is closely related to path‐ogenesis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases ,but there is still no unified understanding for its prevention until now ,and raised morning blood pressure surge phenomenon is not effectively controlled in most patients .The pres‐ent article made a brief review on raised morning blood pressure surge .

Objective To explore the protective effect of erythropoietin(EPO) administrated by intranasal on cerebral ischemia reperfusion in rats with acute cerebral infarction reperfusion.Methods Total of 100 SD rats were divided into model control group,sham operation group,intraperitoneal administration group ([PEPO group),nasal saline group (INNS group) group,and nasal drug delivery group (INEPO group) with 20 in each group.The middle cerebral artery occlusion model of rat was established by thread embolism method and the NSS method was used to evaluate the neural behavior of rats.The expression of EPO in peripheral blood,cerebrospinal fluid and brain regions of rats were detected by Elisa.The vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) in brain was detected by immunofluorescence and then the density of newborn blood vessels in the brain was measured.Results Fifteen days after the operation,the NSS score of INEPO group(3.80± 1.61) was significantly lower than that of IPEPO group (11.53±2.11),and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).And the levels of EPO in blood,cerebrospinal fluid and different brain regions of rats in INEPO group were higher than that of INNS group(all P<0.01).Compared with IPE-PO group,the level of EPO cerebrospinal fluid and different brain regions of rats in INEPO group increased obviously,the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.01),and the EPO concentration of the olfactory bulb was the most obvious (INEPO group:(1 456.90 ± 128.22) pg/ml,IPEPO group:(426.11 ± 36.68)pg/ml,P<0.01).Seventy-two hours after operation,the expression of CD31 in ischemic penumbra of rats of model control group (18.21 ± 3.45),INNS group (18.54 ± 2.58),IPEPO group (27.01 ± 2.13) and INEPO group(35.52±2.79)was increased compared with sham operation group (5.14± 1.28),and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05).The expression of CD31 in IPEPO group and INEPO group was significantly higher than that in INNS group (P<0.05).In INEPO group,the expression of CD31 increased significantly compared with that of IPEPO group (P<0.05).Conclusion Nasal administration of EPO can effectively improve the neurological function of rats with ischemia-reperfusion,and increase the expression of CD31 in the brain tissue of rats.The effect of nasal administration is better than that of intraperitoneal administration.

Low targeting efficiency limits the applications of nanoparticles in cancer therapy. The fact that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) trapped in the lung after systemic infusion is a disadvantage for cell therapy purposes. Here, we utilized MSC as lung cancer-targeted drug delivery vehicles by loading nanoparticles (NP) with anti-cancer drug. MSC showed a higher drug intake capacity than fibroblasts. In addition, MSC showed predominant lung trapping in both rabbit and monkey. IR-780 dye, a fluorescent probe used to represent docetaxel (DTX) in NP, delivered MSC accumulated in the lung. Both MSC/A549 cell experiments and MSC/lung cancer experiments validated the intercellular transportation of NP between MSC and cancer cells. assays showed that the MSC/NP/DTX drug delivery system exerted primary tumor inhibition efficiency similar to that of a NP/DTX drug system. Collectively, the MSC/NP drug delivery system is promising for lung-targeted drug delivery for the treatment of lung cancer and other lung-related diseases.
