OBJECTIVE:To determine plasma concentration of caffeine,dapsone and chlorzoxazone in rats,and to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters. METHODS:6 rats were given the mixture of caffeine,dapsone and chlorzoxazone intragastrically, 1.5,2 and 3 mg/kg,respectively. 0.2-0.3 ml blood were collected before medication and 0.5,1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24 h after medication.The plasma sample was treated with solid phase extraction. The plasma concentration of caffeine,dapsone and chlorzoxa-zone were determined by HPLC using N-(2-Hydroxyethyl) phthalimide as internal standard. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS 2.0 software. RESULTS:The linear ranges of caffeine,dapsone and chlorzoxazone were all 0.2-30 μg/ml (r were 0.996 4,0.996 1,0.998 8,respectively). The limit of quantitation were 0.2 μg/ml. The recoveries of low-concentration, medium-concentration and high concentration were(84.8±3.6)%-(111.4±10.2)%(RSD were 4.3%-9.8%,n=3),(107.0±13.3)%-(113.5±8.1)%(RSD were 7.1%-14.0%,n=3),(104.2±10.8)%-(111.1±12.2)%(RSD were 8.0%-11.0%,n=3). Pharmacoki-netic parameters were as follows as tmax(1.70±0.99),(1.50±1.00),(1.92±0.80)h;t1/2(0.73±0.22),(2.77±1.35),(2.78±2.34) h;cmax (2.60 ± 0.50),(5.78 ± 1.19),(9.76 ± 1.37) mg/L;AUC0-t (8.43 ± 0.79),(20.68 ± 1.91),(26.71 ± 2.45) mg·h/L(n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is simple,sensitive and accurate,and can be used for the plasma concentration determination and pharmacokinetic study of caffeine,dapson and chlorzoxazone.

ve To investigate the effects of selenium and zinc on the absorption, excretion and accumu-lation of fluoride in rats. Methods The contents of fluoride in serum, excrement, urine and bone were determined in Wistar rats drinking distilled water containing 100 mg/L NaF and orally perfused jointly with 0.1 mg/(kg? d) Na2SeO3 and/or 14.8 mg/(kg?d) ZnSO4 one time per two days continuously for 90 days. Results Na2SeO3 and/or ZnSO4 could increase the concentration of fluoride in urine, decrease the concentration of fluoride in serum and the content of fluoride in bone of rats. Exposure to ZnSO4 and joint exposure to Na2SeO3 and ZnSO4 could increase the content of fluoride in excrement. Conclusion ZnSO4 could inhibit the absorption of fluoride in intestine, Na2SeO3 and /or ZnSO4 could promote the excretion of urine fluoride and restrain the accumulation of fluoride in bone of rats.

OBJECTIVE Diabetes-induced endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction and neovasculariza-tion impairment constitute vascular complications with limited treatment regimens.Transcription factor FOXO1 is a key angiogenic regulator and plays a pathologic role in progression of diabetes.The pres-ent study was designed to determine the involvement of FOXO1 in impaired EC function and post-isch-emic neovascularization in diabetes and investigate underlying mechanisms.RESULTS We found that FOXO1-selective inhibitor AS1842856 improved blood flow recovery and capillary density in ischemic hindlimb,and rescued the delay of wound closure with a concomitant augmentation of mean perfusion rate in diabetic mice. In vitro,treatment with AS1842856 or FOXO1 siRNA abrogated high glucose-in-duced apoptosis and ameliorated capillary tube formation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HU-VECs). FOXO1 inhibition relieved alterations in mitochondrial networks and significantly suppressed the over production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(mtROS)induced by high glucose in ECs. Expression of dynamin-relatedprotein-1 (Drp1) and phosphorylation at Ser616, a protein required for mitochondrial fission, were enhanced by hyperglycemia, which could be neutralized by FOXO1 inhibition. Moreover, the transcription of Rho-associated coiled-coil containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK1), which phosphorylates Drp1 at Ser616, was shown by luciferase assay to be directly regulated by FOXO1. CONCLUSION These findings suggested that FOXO1 is critical to preserve mitochondrial quantity and func-tion in ECs,and FOXO1 may serve as a therapeutic target for microvascular complications of diabetes.

Objective To measure the expression of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor (G-CSFR) in human melanocytes and to evaluate the biologic effect of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) on human melanocytes.Methods Melanocytes were obtained from circumcision specimens of healthy males,and neutrophils were isolated from heparin-andcoagulated peripheral blood of healthy human followed by a primary culture.Then,the melanocytes in third passage were cultured with or without the presence of various concentrations (200,400,600,800 μg/L) of rhG-CSF for 72 hours.The growth and morphology of melanocytes were observed.Flow cytometry was performed to detect the expression of G-CSFR in untreated human melanocytes,neutrophils and erythroleukemia cells (HEL 92.1.7).Western blot and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) were carried out to measure the expression of G-CSFR protein and mRNA respectively in the neutrophils,HEL 92.1.7 cells,treated or untreated human melanocytes.Methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to evaluate the proliferation,and dopa-oxidation assay to estimate the tyrosinase activity,of treated melanocytes.Results The expression rate of G-CSFR was 76.81％ ± 10.70％ in human melanocytes,significantly higher than that in the HEL 92.1.7 cells (2.53％ ± 1.54％,P ＜ 0.01 ),but lower than that in the neutrophils (85.76％ ± 15.71％,P ＜ 0.05).Both G-CSFR protein and mRNA were expressed in melanocytes,and there was no significant differences in the expression level of G-CSFR protein and mRNA among melanocytes treated with different concentrations of rhG-CSF (both P ＞ 0.05).The expression levels of G-CSFR protein and mRNA in the melanecytes were significantly higher than those in the HEL 92.1.7 cells (both P ＜ 0.01 ),but lower than those in the neutrophils (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01 ).rhG-CSF at 200-800 μg/L displayed a significantly promotive effect on the proliferation of melanocytes (P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05 ),and the effect was in a dose-dependent manner when rhG-CSF ranged from 200 to 600 μg/L (P ＜ 0.01 ).The rhG-CSF at 600 μg/L and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) at 20 μg/L showed an equivalent effect on the proliferation of melanocytes (164.04％ ± 13.0％ vs.165.62％ ± 10.6％,P ＞ 0.05).However,rhG-CSF from 200 to 800 μg/L had no significant impact on the tyrosinase activity of melanocytes (all P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusions G-CSFR is expressed in human melanocytes. rhG-CSF can promote the proliferation of cultured human melanocytes,but has no obvious influence on the tyrosinase activity of melanocytes.

0.05) . Time consumed for registration and waiting for consultation, average medical care cost, time consumed for dispensing prescription and average total patients' visit time except for diagnosis and treatment were significantly less in primary-care hospitals than those in secondary-care ones( P 0.05) . Conclusions Quality of medical care service process in primary and secondary-care hospitals was perceived good by the outpatients. In general, phenomena of long queues for registration, waiting for consultation, payment, getting drugs and short time for diagnosis and treatment in outpatient departments have been improved a little bit. Medical doctors in primary-care hospitals could provide medical care service as nearly the same as that in secondary-care ones, while time consumed for registration, waiting for consultation, payment and getting drugs, as well as for a total visit was much less in primary-care hospitals.
