Journal of Chinese Physician 2011;13(9):1197-1199
Objective To investigate the.expression and significance of peritoneal fluid (PF) erythropoietin (EPO) and neutrophils activation peptide-78 (ENA-78)in patients with endometriosis.Methods The levels of EPO and ENA-78 in peritoneal fluid (PF) were measured by means of enzymelinked immunosobent assay (ELISA) in 30 women with endometriosis (9 in Ⅰ ~ Ⅱ stage,21 in Ⅲ~ Ⅳ stage)and 30 without endometriosis.And the relationship between the PF levels of EPO and ENA-78 in patients with endometriosis was analyzed.Results The PF levels of EPO and ENA-78 in women with endometriosis [ (9.272 ± 2.284 ) IU/L,( 2.068 ± 0.794 ) ng/ml ] were significantly higher than those in control group [ (5.759 ±0.502) IU/L,(0.886 ±0.145 ) ng/ml,P <0.05].There were no significant differences in the PF levels of EPO between stage Ⅰ ~ Ⅱ [ (9.549 ± 1.996) IU/L] and Ⅲ ~ Ⅳ [ (9.181 ± 1.897) IU/L,P >0.05].The ENA-78 concentrations of PF in stage Ⅲ~ Ⅳ [ (2.517 ± 0.518 )ng/ml] were significantly higher than those in stage Ⅰ ~ Ⅱ[ ( 1.137 ±0.169)ng/ml,P <0.05].There were no obvious correlations in PF EPO and ENA-78 in patients with endometriosis.Conclusions The excessive expression of EPO and ENA-78 in the PF of women with endometriosis suggests that EPO and ENA-78 may be an important role in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

PurposeTo investigate the permeation of model drug,propranolol hydrochloride, through the excised porcine buccal mucosa. To study the influences of various factors on the buccal absorption also studied. MethodsUsing excised porcine buccal mucosa permeation test in vitro. By means of changing the medium pH, osmotic concentration, drug concentration, the concentration of various penetration enhancers including sodium glycodeoxycholate (GDC), sodium glycocholate (GC), dimethy1-β-cyclodextrin (DMβCD), and hydropropyl-β-cyclodextrin(HPβCD). The permeation rates and permeability coefficients(P) were determined and evaluated. The solubilities and apparent partition coefficients also determined in some tests. ResultsThe result showed that the P were increased when porcine buccal mucosae were pretreated with every penetration enhancement of certain concentration, increased as the pH of test solution rose from 4.9 to 9.1. The P remained constant as the concentration of propranolol hydrochloride increased from 5 to 80 mg/ml, decreased with the increasing of osmotic concentration Conclusions The absorption of propranolol hydrochloride through porcine buccal mucosa is a typical passive process, and affected by penetration enhancers, medium pH, osmotic concentration.
