OBJECTIVE:To investigate rules and characteristics of the adverse drug reactions(ADR)induced by monoclonal antibodies,and provide reference for rational drug use. METHODS:The literatures of ADR induced by monoclonal antibodies from Jan. 1979 to Dec. 2014 were retrieved and analyzed. RESULTS:Among the 132 ADRs induced by monoclonal antibodies,57 were male(43.18%),75 were female(56.82%),the ratio of male to female was 1∶1.3,the youngest was 2 years old,and oldest was 111 years old;Adalimumab dominated monoclonal antibody drugs(70 cases,53.03%);there were a maximum of ADR(44) within 1 d,accounting for 33.33%;ADR induced by monoclonal antibodies mainly were skin lesions (20.72%),systemic reac-tions(18.42%)and cardiovascular system damage(16.78%),with the specific performance of rash,itching,chills,fever,palpi-tation,rapid heartbeat and so on. CONCLUSIONS:ADR induced by monoclonal antibodies is more common in the clinic. The clin-ic should timely promote and strengthen the patients' care to ensure safe drug use and improve level of clinical treatment.

Purpose The research was conducted to evaluate the stability of N-terminal site-specific PEGylated uricase. Methods The enzyme activity is used as an index to evaluate the thermal stability (at 4-80 ℃) , the pH stability, the ability of avoiding the trypsin digestion and half-life in vivo of PEG-uricase, then it is compared with uricase. Results PEGylated uricase is thermally more stable than uricase between 4 ℃ and 60 ℃, but at 70 ℃, the enzyme activity of both PEG-uricase and uricase decreases sharply. In the test of pH stability, the curve of uricase shows an obvious decrease of enzyme activity at 5 .2-6.0 and 9.2-10.0. The behavior of PEG-uricase indicates that the destabilizing was prevented effectively by PEGylation. The test of anti-trypsin digestion suggests that PEG-uricase retains 70% of its enzyme activity,but uricase only 20% ,200 minutes after being reserved in trypsin solution. Stability in vivo indicates that the half-life of PEG-uricase is 1 530 min and uricase, only 45 min. Conclusion PEGylated uricase has improved thermal stability, the pH stability, ability of protecting from trypsin digestion and stability in vivo.

Objective To evaluate the effects of mechanical stretch on pentraxin-3(PTX-3)mRNA and protein expression in human alveolar epithelial cells (A549 cells).Methods The human lung epithelial adenocarcinoma cells A549(A549 cells)were purchased from cell biology laboratory,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology.The cultured A549 cells were inoculated on collagen Ⅰ BioFlex plates and divided into 5 groups(n=3 wells each):group Ⅰ normal control;groupⅡsham mechanical stretch;group Ⅲ mechanical stretch;groupⅣsiRNA and groupⅤ siRNA+mechanical stretch.In group Ⅲ the cells underwent square cyclic mechanical stretch for 4 h using the Flexercell Systcm.In group Ⅳ the cells were transfected with chemosynthetic PTX-3 specific siRNA by RNAi technique.In group Ⅴ at 24 h after being transfected with PTX-3 siRNA the cells underwent mechanical stretch for 4 h.In groupⅡ mechanical stretch of the cells were prevented by Flexstep.The expression of PTX-3 mRNA in the cells was detected by real-time PCR and the expression of PTX-3 protein in the culture media was determined by Western blotting.Apoptosis of the cells was measured bv flow cytometry(Beeten-Dickinson,USA).Results PTX-3 mRNA and protein expression was signlficantly up-regulated by mechanical stretch in groupⅢand decreased by transfection with siRNA in group Ⅳand Ⅴ as compared with group Ⅰ andⅡ(P＜0.05 or 0.01).The apoptosis ratio was significantly higher in group Ⅲ and Ⅴ than in groupⅡ and was significantly lower in group Ⅴ thanin group Ⅲ(P＜0.01).Conclusion Mechanical stretch can up-regulate PTX-3 mRNA expression in A549 cells.

Microtubule is one of the key components of the cytoskeleton and plays an important role in the maintenance of cell shape and the process of signal transduction and mitosis. Due to the extreme importance of microtubule in the process of mitosis, tubulin becomes one of the most important targets for development of new anticancer drugs and tubulin inhibitors are used for the treatment of cancer nowadays. These inhibitors have antitumor activity by inhibiting or promoting the assembly of tubulin to microtubules and interfering the process of cell mitosis. This review summarized the research progress of the tubulin inhibitors, especially the introduction of the tubulin inhibitors of pharmacological activities and the progress of clinical research. Also, the development trend of these inhibitors is discussed.

0.05).3.Thirty-three point three percent of animals from parental strain group were found fibrillations potentials and the po-sitive sharp waves in gastrocnemius electromyogram,no obvious abnormal waves were found in animals from both waaF mutant and control group.Conclusions The ganglioside-like epitope in LOS of CJ is critical antigen in inducing GM1-IgG antibody and in inducing conduction block of peripheral nerve,therefore,provide a support for the molecular mimicry theory as a pathogenesis in the axonal GBS following CJ infection.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the significance of Entecavir(ETV) in the treatment of chronic serious hepatitis B(HBV).METHODS: 54 patients with chronic serious hepatitis B were assigned to receive combined therapy in which antiviral drugs such as interferon and(or) nucleoside(acid) analogues antiviral drugs were excluded(control group,n=26) or combined therapy in combination with entecavir(0.5 mg?d-1) qd(treatment group,n=28).The course of treatment in both groups were 6 weeks.The hepatic function,HBV markers and HBV-DNA quantitation were deteted every two weeks.The improvement rate of patients after the completion of treatment were recorded.RESULTS: In the follow-up of six weeks,serum HBV-DNA and total bilirubin levels decreased markedly,and significant difference was noted between compared with the control group;ALT,AST,ALB and PT decreased in both groups,but the differnces between the two groups were not significant;there was no signficnant differnce in improvement rate between the treatment group and the control group(89.3% versus 84.6%).CONCLUSION: Entecavir can rapidly lower serum HBV-DNA level,downregulate bilirubin level,improve liver function,improve patients prognosis in patients with hepatitis B,thus it can be used to treat serious hepatitis B.However,used in short term,the survival rate of patients with severe hepatitis B can hardly be improved.

Objective To investigate the predictors of deep remission in patients with Crohn′s disease (CD)treated with infliximab.Methods From February 2008 to February 2015 ,the clinical, laboratory and follow up data of 44 CD patients who received infliximab treatment and maintained clinical remission over six months were retrospectively analyzed.Mucosal healing was defined as no ulcer under endoscopy.Deep remission was defined as clinical remission with mucosal healing.According to results of endoscopy examination,the enrolled patients were divided into deep remission group and non-deep remission group.T test or Wilcoxon rank sum test was used for comparison of measurement data between groups,and chi square test was performed for the rate comparison.Multivariate analysis was made with Logistic regression.Results Median age of 44 patients was 19.5 yeares,39 males (88.6%),five females (11 .4%),and the median disease duration was 35 .0 months (18.5 to 73.5 months).Deep remission was achieved in 20 CD patients with long-time follow-up (median follow-up time 19 months,12 to 29 months). The mean duration of achieving deep remission was (28.9 ± 14.3 )weeks.There was no statistically significant difference between 20 patients with deep remission and 24 patients without deep remission in age of onset,disease duration,smoking status,Montreal phenotype,concurrent medications (mesalazine, steroids and azathioprine ), as well as body mass index (BMI ) and laboratory tests (erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP),hemoglobin (Hb)and platelet (PLT)count)before administrating.The results of Logistic regression demonstrated that extraintestinal manifestations (arthralgia)(odds ratio (OR)=29.9,95 % confidence interval (CI )1 .26 -714.20,P =0.036),normalization of hs CRP at 14 th week after induced remission (OR=0.88,95 %CI 0.78-0.99, P =0.045)and thrombocytopenia (OR = 0.98,95 %CI 0.96 - 0.99,P = 0.016 )were independent predictive factors of deep remission.Conclusions Infliximab could effectively maintain long term deep remission in treatment of CD.Arthralgia,normalization of hsCRP and PLT counts at 14 th week after induced remission are predictive factor of deep remission.
