Currently,China is confronted with the situation of high quality papers and low impact journals.Quality and quantity of English science,technology and medical(STM) journals in our country can not meet the publishing demand of scientific research papers,which becomes the inner boost of developing English STM journals.Along with the implementation of Project for Enhancing International Impact of China STM Journals,a growing number of STM journals launched international cooperation in journal publishing.This paper introduced Genes & Diseases' strategy of launching and managing English journals in cooperation with foreign publisher.Genes & Diseases strictly follows international publishing practice.The editorial office of Genes & Diseases fully aroused the enthusiasm of editors,editorial board members and the editor-in-chief to solicit manuscripts.Meanwhile,the office of Genes & Diseases took advantages of website,social media,Emails,meeting and academic activity,etc to promote the journals.All these experiences can be used as references for those intended or already started to lunch English STM journal.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cytotoxicity of the nickel ion and provide with basic data for the biological evaluation of those medical devices containing nickel. Seven cell lines were chosen. They were L929, h9c2(2-1), 293[HEK-293], hFOB1.19, THLE-3, H9 and IM-9 respectively. According to the principle of biological evaluation of medical devices, MTT method was chosen to test the cytotoxicity in different concentrations of nickel ion. For each cell line, the relative growth rate (RGR) was obtained and the cytotoxic grade was classified. Besides, IC50 values were calculated. As a result, it was found that the sensitivity was different among all cell lines. H9 was the most sensitive one, while the L929 was the most tolerant one. The concentration which is not above 1.25 mg/L was safe for all seven cell lines, because the cytotoxicity for all cells exposed in this concentration were not higher than grade 1. According to the criteria for medical devices, the concentrations not above 5 mg/L were safe for L929 cells. This result helps us to roughly assess the cytotoxicity and systematic toxicity caused by nickel contained in medical devices.

AIM: To prepare the irisquinone freeze-drying injection and investigate its stability. METHODS: The degradation pattern of irisquinone and its effects were measured. At the same time, the stability of freeze-(drying) injection by classic thermostatical test. RESULTS: Irisquinone solution was unstable to heat and its content decreased remarkably in acid and alkaline solutions. The result showed that oil/water partition coeffecient of irisquinone was very large. The irisquinone-hydropropyl1-?-cyclodextrin inclusion complex freeze-drying injection was very effective to enhance the drug stability. CONCLUSION: Irisquinone inclusion complex injection has character of good stability.

Objective To investigate the solubilitization effect of macromolecular paclitaxel with cyclodextrin and mechanism between inclusion complex and drugs. Methods The influence effects on paclitaxel solubility were studied with ?-cyclodextrin (?-CD) and hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin (HP-?-CD) as inclusion carriers. The chemical shifts of hydrogen atom in host and guest molecules were also investigated with 1H-NMR. Results The form of inclusion complex was responsible by host molecules and the enhancement solubility of paclitaxel in HP-?-CD was larger than that in ?-CD and increased with the ratio increasing. The benzene ring in the molecular of HP-?-CD and paclitaxel showed the most significant effect. Conclusion The solubility of diossolved paclitaxel is improved by hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin.

AIM: To screen and optimize the preparation conditions of irisquinone-hydroxypropyl-?-cyclodextrin inclusion complex (Irisquinone-HP-?-CD) with stiring method. METHODS: The load-drug and recovery of irisquinone were adopted as the index, host-guest molar ratio, alcohol concentration and stiring rate as factors, have been investigated in the techniques of irisquinone-HP-?-CD. RESULTS: The load-drug and recovery of irisquinone-HP-?-CD were respective ( 15.79 ?0.22)% and ( 92.03 ?6.26)% by optimizing conditions which were host-guest molar ratio 2∶1, 90% EtOH and stiring rate 800r?min -1. At the same time, the dissolution test showed that irisquinone was faster released from inclusion complex than that from capsules and mixture dosage form. CONCLUSION: The optimizing techniques fit to prepare irisquinoe-HP-?-CD in industry.
