AIM To evaluate the anti-angiogenesis action of Bevacizumab on corneal neovascularization(CNV) in rats induced by alkali burns.·METHODS: 20 Health Wistar rats, aging from 6 to 8 weeks and weighting from 170g to 190g from 170g to 190g were prepared for CNV animal models. Both corneas of each animal in experimental were cauterized with alkali, then all rats were randomly divided into four groups (each group have 5 rats and 10 corneas), the both corneas of each rats were received subconjunctival Bevacizumab in different dosage (group 2, 0.5rag; group 3, 1.0mg; group 4, 2.0mg)and the group 1 received carrier solution. The occurrence and development ofCNVwereobservedbyslit-lamp microscope, and length and area of CNV were calculated. All rats were followeded up 16 days after alkali burns. The 40 corneas were taken for histopathological examination. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were detected in all rat corneas by immunohistochemistry method. ·RESULTS: In the bevacizumabotreated eyes, the vascular area was lower than in the control eyes. The treated group was statistical differences compared with the control group; when vascular area were compared between the treated groups, no statistical differences were observed. The histopathological findings showed that the inflammation cells and the neovascularity in each treated group were significantly fewer than that in the control group. The expression of VEGF markedly increased in CNV control group compared with bevacizumab-injected group. ·CONCLUSION: Subconjunctival application of a certain concentrations Bevacizumab could inhibit angiogenesis in rats corneas induced by alkali burns.

To investigate the influence of the difference enhancers on the transport mechanism of chlorogenic acid (CGA) across Caco-2 cells model, a RP-HPLC method was adopted to detect the concentrations of CGA. At the concentrations of 20 to 80 microg x mL(-1), the difference of absorption rate constants (K(a)) was not statistically significant. At the concentrations of 40 and 20 microg x mL(-1), the ratios of apparent permeability coefficients (P(app)) of the apical to basolateral and the basolateral to apical were 1.14 and 1.18, respectively. With the effect of enhancers K(a) and P(app) increased, the absorption half-life (T1/2) decreased. CGA passed through the Caco-2 cell membrane mainly by passive transport. It showed that monocarboxylic acid transporter (MCT) could be involved in the across membrane transport process of CGA. Borneol had no effect on the cell membrane transport processes. The order of increasing absorption of CGA caused by the enhancers was sodium lauryl sulphate > sodium taurocholate > carbomer.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the phenotype and drug resistance of Robinsoniella peoriensis strains isolated from the blood of patients with prostate cancer and to learn the epidemiological characteristics of the strains. Methods　Culture medium growth characteristics analysis, Gram staining, VITEK MS mass spectrometry identification, in vitro drug susceptibility test, 16S rRNA gene sequencing were performed on the strains, and case summary analysis, historical drug sensitivity results comparison and phylogenetic tree construction were carried out. Results　Four of the repeatability tests of mass spectrometry identification were R. peoriensis, and the identification accuracy was 99.9%, which was the first time that mass spectrometry analysis in China accurately detected this strain. The 16S rRNA gene sequencing confirmed that the strain was R. peoriensis, and GenBank accession number is OL826796. There are currently 18 cases of R. peoriensis related to human infection in the world, mainly including bloodstream infection, prosthetic joint infection, and postoperative wound infection. The homology of OL826796 in this case with HGUE-09/943 (GU322806.1) isolated in Spanish was 99.58%; in vitro drug susceptibility showed that OL826796 was resistant to penicillin and clindamycin, and sensitive to vancomycin, imipenem, tetracycline and metronidazole. Statistical analysis of drug susceptibility of 18 cases found that R. peoriensis could be tested for drug susceptibility by E-test method: penicillin 100% (7/7), clindamycin 70% (7/10), ampenem 0% (0/4), metronidazole 0% (0/9), meropenem 0% (0/4), vancomycin 0% (0/3). Conclusion　R. peoriensis is a rare anaerobic-positive bacillus. When sterile site infection occurs, attention should be paid to timely communication with clinical reports, and penicillin and clindamycin should be used cautiously to fight infection, so as to improve the cure rate of postoperative immunocompromised patients.

Post-marketing evaluation is a process which evaluate the risks and benefits of drug clinical application comprehensively and systematically, scientific and systematic results of post-marketing evaluation not only can provide data support for clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine, but also can be a reliable basis for the supervision department to develop risk control measures. With the increasing demands for treatment and prevention of disease, traditional Chinese medicine has been widely used, and security issues are also exposed. How to find risk signal of traditional Chinese medicine in the early stages, carry out targeted evaluation work and control risk timely have become challenges in the development of traditional Chinese medicine industry.

The renal toxicity and mutagenicity of aristolochic acid (AA) as well as its carcinogenicity on upper urinary tract transitional epithelial cells have been widely known. Since 2003, drug regulatory departments have successively cancelled the quality standards for AA-containing medicines such as Aristolochiae Radix, Aristolochiae Manshuriensis Caulis and Aristolchiae Fangchi Radix, and adopted measures for strengthening regulation and revising package insert or quality standards for other AA-containing medicines, including Aristolochia Cinnabarina Radix, Aristolochiae Fructus, Aristolochiae Mollissimae Herba, in order to control its safety risk. In recent years, domestic and foreign studies on AA have mainly involved action mechanism and clinical performance of AA toxicity, early-stage diagnosis and treatment method. In this paper, authors gave a brief summary and evaluation on risk factors for using AA-containing medicines, and offered measures and suggestions for preventing and controlling AA toxicity.

Objective To identify the outcome of pregnancy and the alteration of renal function in women with nephrotic syndrome. Methods From 2003 to 2007, 59 pregnant women with nephrotic syndrome in our hospital were enrolled in the study. Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed, including the time of kidney disease onset, 24-hour proteinuria, serum albumin, serum creatinine, blood uric acid, blood pressure, fetal survival, fetal mortality, rate of premature delivery, birth weight of the newborn, and proteinuria, renal function, blood pressure of the patients during their postpartum follow-up. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors influencing the outcome of the patients and the newborns. Results The average gestational week was (20.35±9.40) weeks when proteinuria was detected in these pregnant women. The 24-hour proteinuria ranged from 3.5 to 15 g/24 h (median 5.1 g/24 h). The serum albumin was between 10 and 28 g/L (median 22.5 g/L). The serum creatinine was between 32 and 825 μmol/L (median 84 μmol/L) and the serum uric acid ranged from 196 to 793 μmol/L (median 385.5 μmol/L). Pregnancy-induced hypertension syndrome occurred in 75% of the patients, among whom 55.5% suffered from preeclampsia. Forty-three (72.9%) newborns survived , among whom 76.7% (33/43) were premature births and 62.8% (27/43) were low birth weight infants. 50% of the pregnant women still had nephrotic syndrome after delivery. 75% of 24 patients with pre-existing chronic glomerulonephritis had increased proteinuria during pregnancy. Among the 38 patients with renal insufficiency, 36.8% had poorer renal function after delivery. 23.7% of the patients progressed into end stage renal failure after delivery, 80% of whom had serum creatinine ≥ 265 μmol/L. 89% of the patients had persistent hypertension after childbirth. The Logistic regression analysis indicated hyperuricemia during pregnancy (P=0.018, OR=1.012) and the increase of serum creatinine (P=0.039, OR=1.005) were risk factors of renal failure in pregnant women after delivery. Hyperuricemia (P=0.012, OR=1.006)was the risk factor of fetal death. Conclusions Pregnancy with nephrotic syndrome leads to a low fetal survival. Hyperuricemia is the most important risk factor of the poor outcome of pregnant women and newborn.
