Objective To investigate the influence of ethanol on the toxicokinetic profiles of ketamine and its main metabolite norketamine in rabbits.Methods Ketamine hydroehloride Wills administered orally to the rabbits at a dose of 15mg/kg in the ketamine-treated group.Ketamine hydrochloride combined with ethanol at a dose of 15 mg/kg and 3.0g/kg respectively was administered orally to those of the ethanol-coadministration group.The serum and urine samples were collected before administration and at different time points after drug delivery.The concentrations of ketamine and norketamine were determined by GC and GC/MS.Compartment model and toxicokinetics parameters were assessed by WinNorLin program.Results The mean serum concentration-time profile of ketamine after oral administration was fitted to a two-compartment open model with first order kinetics and not affected by ethanol.The K_(10),AUC and β of ketamine in rabbits of ethanol-coadministration group increased as compared with those of ketamine-treated rabbits,while T_(1/2K_(10)),T_(1/2β),A and C_(max)decreased(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the K01,A,B and C_(max) of norketamine,the metabolite of ketamine increased in ethanol-coadministration group and T_(1/2K01) and Tmax were lowered than those in ketaminetreated group(P<0.05).Difference of the other toxicokinetics parameters including V/F,K_(10),K_(12),K_(21),AUC,T_(1/2K_(10)),T_(1/2α),T_(1/2β) and β were not statistically significant between two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Ethanol may accelerate elimination of ketamine and the metabolism of ketamine to norketamine and has little effect on the absorption of ketamine,suggesting that interaction between ethanol and ketamine should be considered in cases of co-abuse of the two drugs.

BACKGROUND: There is no effective method to identify liver cancer stem cells until now, which has become one of the major challenges in this field. OBJECTIVE: To explore a more effective and suitable way for the identification of liver cancer stem cells in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines. METHODS: Firstly, the single cell separation technique was used to obtain single cells, which were seeded into 96-wel plates one by one. Secondly, cell sublines derived from single cell colonies (tumorigenic colonies) were selected and obtained. At last, the cells from these clones were transplanted into the forelimb armpits of nude mice to observe the tumorigenic ability. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The number of holes of single cells obtained was 371 by the single cell separation technique, and the success rate was 96.4%. According to the growth of cell clone, tumorigenic colonies were selected to be transplanted to the forelimb armpits of nude mice, and the tumor formation rate of the colonies was 100%. The identification model of single-cell-transplant-tumorigenic-test for liver cancer stem cells is confirmed to be preliminarily established, which lays the technology and methodological basis for the follow-up research.

This article firstly established a new efficient method for screening anti-osteoporosis ingredients, which used two-dimensional zebrafish model combined with hyphenated chromatographic techniques to evaluate anti-osteoporosis activities of epimedin A and its metabolite baohuoside I. Adult zebrafish was used for metabolism of epimedin A in 0.5% DMSO, and LC-MS was used for analysis of the metabolite, which was captured by HPLC, and prednisolone-induced osteoporosis model of zebrafish was used to evaluate the anti-osteoporotic activities of trace amounts of epimedin A and baohuoside I. The results indicated that epimedin A and baohuoside I can prevent prednisolone-induced osteoporosis in zebrafish. The developed method in this paper enables the separation, enrichment and analysis of micro-amount metabolite of epimedin A, and anti-osteoporosis activities in vivo of epimedin A and baohuoside I was simple and efficient screening resorting to zebrafish osteoporosis mode. This paper would provide new ideas and methods for a rapid and early discovery of anti-osteoporosis activities of micro-ingredients and its metabolite of traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the benzene exposure level and cytopenia among the benzene exposed workers in Shanghai, China and to analyze the influential factors for the health of benzene-exposed workers.
METHODSA total of 3314 benzene-exposed workers, who were from 85 benzene-related enterprises selected by stratified random sampling based on enterprise sizes and industries, were included in the study. The time-weighted average (TWA) concentration of benzene in each workshop was measured by individual sampling and fixed point sampling, and the benzene exposure level in workshop was evaluated accordingly. The occupational health examination results and health status of benzene-exposed workers were collected.
RESULTSThe median of TW A concentrations of benzene was 0.3 mg/m3. The TWA concentrations measured at 7 ( 1.4%) of the 504 sampling points were above the safety limit. Of the 7 points, 3 were from large enterprises, 2 from medium enterprises, and 2 from small enterprises; 3 were from shipbuilding industry, 1 from chemical industry, and 3 from light industry. Of the 3314 benzene-exposed workers, 451 ( 13.6%) had cytopenia, including 339 males ( 339/2548, 13.3%) and 112 females ( 112/766, 14.6% ). There were significant differences in the incidence rates of leukopenia and neutropenia among the benzene-exposed workers of different sexes and ages (P<0.05); there were significant differences in the incidence rate of cytopenia among the benzene-exposed workers of different ages and working years ( P<0.05 ); there were significant differences in the incidence of neutropenia among the benzene exposed workers of different working years ( P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONMonitoring and intervention measures should be enhanced to protect the benzene-exposed workers in the large enterprises in shipbuilding industry and medium and private enterprises in chemical industry from occupational hazards.
