ACKGROUND: Adriamycin (ADM) can specifically conjugate with receptor. In particular, ADM nanopartides play a target role in decreasing the cytotoxicity.OBJECTIVE: To investigate the targeting effect of addamycin nanoparticles conjugated with hyaluronic acid (ADM-HA-SSL) on oral squamous carcinomas calls in vitro.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: An in vitro contrast observation was performed in College of Madne Life Science, Ocean University of China from January to July 2008. MATERIALS: Oral squamous carcinomas calls were sincerely presented by Professor Chen from the Ninth People's Hospital of Shanghai; ADM-HA-SSL (drug loading 156 mg/L) was sincerely presented by Professor Liu from College of Marine Life Science, Ocean University of Chine.METHODS: Oral squamous carcinomas cells were cultured with 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, and 10.0 mg/L ADM-HA-SSL. MTT assay was used to detect the targeted cytotoxicity of ADM-HA-SSL against oral squamous cell carcinomas. With the concentrations of 5.0 and 10.0 mg/L, call apoptosis was ascertained by call flow cytometry after 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell survival rate and apoptosis rate.RESULTS: At 24 and 48 hours after induction, cytotoxicity assay revealed that the effect of ADM-HA-SSL was superior to that of free ADM (t=5.78-42.05, P < 0.01). The results of flow cytometry showed that the apoptosis rate was enhanced with the increase of the time (F=4 200.40, 4 775.36, P < 0.01), and the rate was also increased at the same time point with the increase ofconcentration (t=12.06-20.08, P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: ADM-HA-SSL can specifically recognize oral squamous carcinomas cells and deliver adriamycin into the cells. And the effect is enhanced by the time prolonging.

To study the drug-drug interaction of morinidazole and warfarin and its application, a sensitive and rapid liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the determination of R-warfarin/S-warfarin in human plasma. In a random, two-period crossover study, 12 healthy volunteers received a single oral dose of 5 mg racemic warfarin in the absence and presence of morinidazole. Blood samples were collected according to a pre-designed time schedule. R-warfarin, S-warfarin and methyclothiazide were extracted with ethylether : methylenechloride (3 : 2), then separated on a Astec Chirobiotic V (150 mm x 4.6 mm ID, 5 microm) column using 5 mmol x L(-1) ammonium acetate (pH 4.0) - acetonitrile as mobile phase at a flow-rate of 1.5 mL x min(-1). The mobile phase was splitted and 0.5 mL x min(-1) was introduced into MS. A tandem mass spectrometer equipped with electrospray ionization source was used as detector and operated in the negative ion mode. Quantification was performed using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). The resolution of warfarin enantiomers is 1.56. The linear calibration curves for R-warfarin and S-warfarin both were obtained in the concentration range of 5 - 1 000 ng x mL(-1). Intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation (RSD) for R-warfarin and S-warfarin over the entire concentration range across three validation runs was both less than 10%, and relative error (RE) ranged from -4.9% to 0.7%, separately. The method herein described is effective and convenient, and suitable for the study of metabolic interaction between morinidazole and warfarin. The results showed that coadministration of warfarin with morinidazole did not affect the pharmacokinetics of either R-warfarin or S-warfarin.
