Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2002;8(8):491-494
ObjectiveTo understand dangerous factors causing child cerebral palsy and try to diagnose and treat cerebral palsy early, and decrease the ratio of cripple.MethodsTo analyze if the occurrence, style or complication of cerebral palsy having a relation to dangerous factors such as sexes, birth weight, premature delivery, twins, neonatal asphyxia, infection of newborn, nuclear icterus, mother's age, virus infection in the duration of pregnancy, threatened abortion and family history of cerebral palsy.ResultsThe ration of male and female is 1.47∶1 in 146 cases of child cerebral palsy. Factors causing cerebral palsy are low birth weight (79.45%), premature delivery (64.38%), neonatal asphyxia (41.78%), threatened abortion (32.89%), twins (31.53%), infection of newborn (12.33%), nuclear icterus (6.16%), parturient with advanced age (3.42%), having infection history in the duration of pregnancy (2.74%), and family history of cerebral palsy (0.68%). Both styles and complications of cerebral palsy have a relation to dangerous factors.ConclusionsThe low birth weight, premature delivery, neonatal asphyxia, twins and threatened abortion all are higher dangerous factors causing child cerebral palsy. In order to abstain the occurrence of these dangerous factors, it is important to educate people and doctors recognizing all dangerous factors. It is also helpful to lower the ratio of cripple that regularly examining child with dangerous factors, discovering symptoms and complications of cerebral palsy in time, and diagnosing and treating cerebral palsy as soon as possible.

Objective To investigate the relationship between cysteine-rich protein 61 ( Cyr61 ) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase ( PI3K ) signal pathway on cell proliferation and apoptotic in human ovarian carcinoma cells.Methods Recombinant human Cyr61 (rhCyr61) was pretreated with ovarian carcinoma cells.The expression of Cyr61 protein was detected by confocal spectral microscopy.Then treated the ovarian carcinoma cells with PI3K transduction inhibitors (LY294002) for 24 hours.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry (FCM).Cell viability was determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) method.The mRNA expressions of Cyr61,the protein levels of protein kinase B ( PKB),phospho-PKB and Cyr61 were assaved by real time-PCR and western blot analysis,respectively.Results The Cyr61 and phospho-PKB protein expression in two ovarian carcinoma cells (OV2008 and OVCAR-3 ) were increased in rhCyr61pretreated group.The decreasing of cell apoptosis [ ( 1.4 ±0.9)%,(2.1 ± 1.0)% ] and increasing of cell proliferation [ ( 124.0 ± 1.8)%,( 133.0 ±2.2)% ] was detected in the same time,compared with negative control group,there were significant difference ( P < 0.05 ).After exposed to LY294002 for 24 hours,the apoptosis rate of OV2008 and OVCAR-3 in pretreated with rhCyr61 group exposed to LY294002 were (21.1 ± 1.6)% and (26.4 ± 1.5 )%,respectively.Cells viability [ (59.0 ± 2.3 )%,(51.0 ± 2.0)% ]was also significantly decreased in OV2008 and OVCAR-3 pretreated with rhCyr61 cells.Meanwhile,the mRNA expressions of Cyr61 (3.2 ± 0.8,6.2 ± 1.1 ) and the protein levels of phospho-PKB and Cyr61 were greatly decreased.Compared with negative control group,there were significant difference in OV2008 and OVCAR-3 cells (all P < 0.0l ).Conclusions The activation of PI3K intracellular signaling pathways may lead to up-regulation of Cyr61 expression.Block PI3K signal pathway could significantly inhibit the expression of Cyr61,and may promote the apoptotic effects and inhibit the cell growth of ovarian carcinoma cells.

A new dynamic in vitro intestinal absorption model for screening and evaluating lipid formulations was established by means of the characteristics of the intestinal digestion and absorption of the lipid formulations. This model was composed of two systems, including intestinal digestion and the intestinal tissue culture, which drew the evaluation method of intestinal absorption into the in vitro lipolysis model. The influence of several important model parameters such as Ca2+, D-glucose, K+ on the two systems of this model has been investigated. The results showed that increasing of Ca2+ concentration could be significantly conductive to intestinal digestion. The increasing of D-glucose concentration could stepped significantly down the decay of the intestinal activity. K+ was able to maintain intestinal activity, but the influence of different concentration levels on the decay of the intestinal activity was of no significant difference. Thus the model parameters were set up as follows: Ca2+ for 10 mmol x L(-1), D-glucose for 15 mmol x L(-1) and K+ for 5.5 mmol x L(-1). Type I lipid formulation was evaluated with this model, and there was a significant correlation between the absorption curve in vitro and absorption curve in vivo of rats (r = 0.995 6, P < 0.01). These results demonstrated that this model can be an attractive and great potential method for the screening, evaluating and predicting of the lipid formulations.

This paper report the development of a new dosage form - self-microemulsifying mouth dissolving films, which can improve the oral bioavailability of water insoluble drugs and have good compliance. A three factor, three-level Box-Behnken design was used for optimizing formulation, investigated the effect of amounts of microcrystalline cellulose, low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose and hypromellose on the weight, disintegration time, cumulative release of indomethacin after 2 min, microemulsified particle size and stretchability. Optimized self-microemulsifying mouth dissolving films could fast disintegrate in (17.09 +/- 0.72) s; obtain microemulsified particle size at (28.81 +/- 3.26) nm; and release in vitro at 2 min to (66.18 +/- 1.94)%. Self-microemulsifying mouth dissolving films with broad application prospects have good compliance, strong tensile and can be released rapidly in the mouth through fast self-microemulsifying.

Solid carriers had important effects on the properties of solid self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (S-SMEDDS). In order to make the basis for further development of S-SMEDDS, the influences of silica on the absorption of S-SMEDDS were investigated. An in vitro lipolysis model was used to evaluate the influence of silica on self-microemulsifying drug delivery system digestion from intestinal tract. S-SMEDDS containing silica were prepared by extrusion/spheronization. The drug release and absorption were investigated. The results showed that lipolysis rate and drug concentration in aqueous phase after intestinal lipolysis both increased by adding silica, which was benefit to drug absorption. And silica was not benefit to absorption for slowing drug release. Consistently, there was no significant influence of silica on intestinal absorption. This study implied that the influences of silica on lipolysis rate and drug release were both amount dependent and it is suggested that silica could be used as the solid carrier but the proportion needs to be optimized.
