China Pharmacy 2015;26(35):4971-4973
OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of different plasmapheresis supplement timing on therapeutic efficacy of toxic liver injury. METHODS:96 patients with toxic liver injury and divided into group A,B ,C and D with 32 cases in each group ac-cording to different plasmapheresis supplement timing. All patients received plasmapheresis supplement based on routine treatment. In group A,synchronized fluid replacement was 100% fresh plasma;in group B,synchronized fluid replacement was 40% normal saline firstly,and then 60%fresh plasma;in group C,substitute liquid was given till the in vitro blood reached 12%of circulation amount,supplement order as 40% normal saline for the first supplement,and then add 60% fresh plasma. The clinical symptoms and signs,liver function,prothrombin activity and blood biochemical indicators were observed in each group before and after treat-ment. RESULTS:Plasmapheresis supplement had good therapeutic efficacy on toxic liver injury;but the time of clinical symptoms and signs disappearance in group C was significantly shorter than that in group A and B,and the group B was significantly shorter the group A,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The plasma bilirubin,prothrombin activity,albumin levels of 3 groups after treatment were significantly better than before,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group C was better than the group A and B,and the group B was better than the group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Compared with before treatment,the lev-els of AST and ALT in 3 groups decreased significantly after treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group B and C were better than the group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05);the group B and C was similar to each other,without statisti-cal significance(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Different plasmapheresis supplement timing have different effect on toxic liver injury. The supplement method that giving 40% normal saline for the first supplement,and then add 60% fresh plasma when in vitro blood reach 12%of circulation amount has more significant effect.

Objective To study the changes of serum and tissue soluble interleukin-2 receptor (slL-2R) and soluble intercellular adhesion moleculer-1 (sICAM-1) in eolorectal cancer and their clinical significance. Methods Serum levels of sIL-2R and sICAM-1 were detected by the double antibody sandwich ELISA method in 44 colorectal cancer patients before and after operation, 28 polyp intestinal and 30 controls. Simultaneously, tissue levels of them were measured in co]oreetal cancer and polyp intestinal. Results The serum sIL-2R[(209.27±127.42) pmol/L] and sICAM-1[(693.22±276.25) ng/ml] in coiorectal cancer were significantly higher than those in the polyp intestinal and controls.The tissue sIL-2R [(233.66±170.22)pmol/L] and sICAM-l[(706.92±286.09) ng/ml] in colorectal cancer were significantly higher than those in the polyp intestinal. The serum and tissue levels of sIL-2R and sICAM-1 in colorectal cancer had relationships with Duke stages and no relationships with the histological differentiation. The levels of serum sIL-2R and sICAM-1 declined remarkably after one month of radical operation, but it decreased illegibly after palliative operation. Conclusion Alterations of serum and tissue sIL-2R and sICAM-1 levels may be used as indicators of diagnosis, choice of operative method, judgement of prognosis in eoloreetal cancer.

Objective To investigate whether the proliferation of human hepatoma cell can be induced by insulin and which can be inhibited by Octreotide. Methods A human hepatoma cell line BEL7402 was used in this study. Using MTT method, cell count and Flow Cytometry (FCM), the effects of insulin and/or Octreotide on the number of viable cell, its ratio, the total number of cells, cell cycle and proliferative index (PI) in phasesynchronized cells were assayed. Results The cell number, the viable cell number and its ratio in insulin (0~5 ?g/ml)treated BEL7402 cells increased, while both in basic and insulininduced ones all decreased when Octreotide 0~2 ?g/ml was used, both in dosedependent manner. 1 ?g/ml of Octreotide resulted in a reduction of PI which was increased by 5 ?g/ml of insulin. Moreover, a S cell cycle block was detectable in phasesynchronised BEL7402 cell treated with 1 ?g/ml of Octreotide. Conclusion In vitro, proliferation of human hepatoma cell can be induced by insulin, while Octreotide exerted an inhibitory effects on basic and insulininduced growth of human hepatoma cell.
