Purpose　To evaluate the effects of ambroxol on prevention of premature babies with hyaline membrane disease(HMD) with prenatal corticosteroids.　Methods　Premature neonates gestational age 26-36 weeks were divided into two groups,receiving:(1) Ambroxol 30 mg/kg through umbilical vein at birth(group A,n=28) and (2) a control group not given ambroxol (group B,n=35).All the babies were exposed prenatally corticosteroids.　Results　(1) Occurrence rate of HMD in group A was 0%,group B was 11.4%,there was significant difference (P<0.05).(2) Mean fetal age of group A was 32.47+/-4.5 pregnant weeks,group B is 32.86+/-7.1 weeks.No significant difference existed.(3) Different fetal age in gruop B,such as pregnant weeks≤32,33-34,35-36,the HMD rate was separately 28.7%,15.38% and 0%,no case was found in group A.(4) There cases of 12 neonatal asphyxia happened in group B,but none of 6 in group A.　Conclusions　Definite effect can be received by applying ambroxol to prevent premature infant HMD after delivery on the bases of adenotropin before delivery.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for contents determination of luteoloside,quercetin and hyperoside in Lonicera japonica. METHODS:HPCE was performed silica capillary column with detection wavelength of 360 nm and separation voltage of 20 kV,electrokinetic sampling,sampling voltage of 15 kV,sampling time of 5 s,operation temperature of 25 ℃.The buffer was consisted of 60 mmol/L sodium tetraborate-50 mmol/L natrium carbonicum-50 mmol/L hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin(pH 9.2). RE-SULTS:The linear ranges of luteoloside,quercetin and hyperoside were 0.06-0.56mg/mL (r=0.9881),0.08-0.56 mg/mL (r=0.9892),0.06-0.49 mg/mL(r=0.9796),respectively. RSDs of precision,stability and reproducibility tests were all lower than 2.0%. The recoveries were 96.12%-99.77%(RSD=1.29%,n=6),95.90%-98.35%(RSD=0.89%,n=6),94.07%-97.45%(RSD=1.33%,n=6),respectively. CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,accurate,stable and reproducible,and can be used for simultaneous determination of luteoloside,quercetin and hyperoside in L. japonica.

Objective To analyze and discuss the possible reasons of the bone resorption beneath the prostheses after chin augmentation.Methods Twelve patients were admitted to our department for further correction after chin augmentation with materials.The bone resorption was observed through the clinical research and X-ray examination.Results All the patients were underwent the removal of the materials,genioplasty was performed in 8 patients,and two patients were treated by chin augmentation with polyethylene.All the patients were satisfied with their facial contouring.Mild bone resorption was found in seven patients (depth of bone resorption ≤2 mm),in which five patients were used with silicone materials,two patients were performed with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene implants.Moderate bone resorption was seen in three cases.All of them were used with silicone implants (2 mm ＜ depth of bone resorption ≤4 mm).Severe bone resorption happened in two patients (depth of bone resorption ＞4 mm).One was used with silicone implant,and the other one was carried out with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene implant.Conclusions The imbalance among mentalis muscle,materials and underlying bone might be one of the key reasons.Thus for mild and moderate microgenia cases,chin augmentation with material is suitable,while long-term fellow-up study is necessary.But for the cases of severe mirogenia or microgenia and micrognathia with dentofacial deformity or mentalis muscle hyperactivity,genioplasty might be performed as well to correct their deformities.

Objective:To investigate the volatile constituents in Folium isatidis. Methods:The volatile constituents from Folium isatidis were analyzed by head-space solid micro-extraction coupled with GC-MS for the first time. Results: Thirty-five compounds (89. 95%) were identified from the volatile constituents in Folium isatidis. The main volatile constituents of Folium isatidis were 6, 10, 14-trimethyl-2-pentadecanone (6. 32%), nonanal (5. 99%), phenethyl isothiocyanate (5. 79%) and palmitic acid (5. 62%). Conclusion:Palmitic acid and benzyl alcohol may be the main effective constituents in Folium isatidis.

Objective To investigate the expression patterns and significance of aquaporin 5 (AQP‐5) and multidrug‐resistance associated genes in human colon cancer with different differentiation degree and their correlation .Methods The expression of aqua‐porin 5 and resistance genes P‐gp ,GST‐π,TopoⅡ ,and TS in human 45 cases colon cancer tissues with different differentiation de‐gree and 36 cases of adjacent mucosa tissues as well as 58 cases of normal colonic epithelium were detected by quantitative RT‐PCR ,Western blot and immunohistochemistry .Results Immunohistochemistry results showed that AQP‐5 distributed mainly in the cell membrane and the cytoplasm .Fluorescence quantitative RT‐PCR and Western blot showed that AQP‐5 expression could not be detected in adjacent mucosa tissues and normal colonic epithelium tissues .The AQP‐5 expression level was higher in colon cancer tissues compared with adjacent mucosa tissues and normal colonic epithelium tissues (P<0 .05) ,and the expression intensity was correlated with the differentiation degree of colon cancer tissues (P<0 .05) .The results of immunohistochemistry indicated that P‐gp distributed mainly in the cell membrane and the cytoplasm ,GST‐πmainly distributed in the nuclei and cytoplasm ,Topo Ⅱ main‐ly distributed in the nucleus ,and TS distributed mainly in the cytoplasm .Fluorescence quantitative RT‐PCR and Western blot re‐sults showed that the expression levels of all resistance genes detected were higher in colon cancer tissues compared with adjacent mucosa tissues and normal colonic epithelium tissues (P<0 .05) .Furthermore ,P‐gp ,GST‐π,and Topo Ⅱ expression were negative‐ly correlated with the differentiation degree of colon cancer tissues ,the more poor differentiation level of tissue ,the higher expres‐sion level of P‐gp ,GST‐π ,Topo Ⅱ .However ,the expression level of TS did not change significantly in different differentiation de‐gree colon cancer tissues (P>0 .05) .Positive correlation was found between the expression of AQP‐5 and P‐gp ,GST‐π,Topo Ⅱ(P<0 .05) .Negative correlation was found between the expression of AQP‐5 and TS (P>0 .05) .Conclusion The AQP‐5 and re‐sistance gene expression were increased in colon cancer tissues .The AQP‐5 expression level was higher in colon cancer compared with adjacent control or normal tissues ,which may promote the transfer and progress of colon cancer .

Objective:To establish an LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of acetaminophen and its five metabolites in mice plasma,and investigate the metabolism of acetaminophen by using the method.Methods:Para aminobenzoic acid was used as the internal standard.The plasma samples were precipitated by methanol,and then separated on a C18 column with the mobile phase of methanol and 5 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate buffer solution containing 0.1% formic acid (55∶45).The flow rate was 0.5 ml·min-1,and the column temperature was 25℃.An electrospray ionization source was applied and operated in a positive ion mode using MRM:APAP,-,m/z 152.0→110.0;APAP-cys,-,m/z 271.2→140.1;APAP-glut,-,m/z 457.0→328.0;APAP-NAC,-,m/z 313.4 →208.0;APAP-sulf,-,m/z 232.4→152.1;APAP-gluc,-,m/z 328.2→152.1;IS,-,m/z 138.2→120.0.Results:The method exhibited good linearity over the concentration range of 0.2-10 μg·ml-1for APAP,1.0-20 μg·ml-1 for APAP-gluc,1.0-20 μg·ml-1 for APAP-sulf,1.0-20 μg·ml-1 for APAP-glut,0.4-15 μg·ml-1 for APAP-NAC and 0.2-10 μg·ml-1 for APAP-cys (r≥0.990 0).The inter-day accuracy and precision of acetaminophen and its five metabolites were all below 15%.The average recovery was between 85% and 115%,and RSDs were all below 15%.Conclusion:The LC-MS/MS method is proved to be quick,sensitive and accurate,and suitable for the determination of acetaminophen and its five metabolites in mice plasma.
