This is a review of recent progress in the study on environment sensitive hydrogel based on cyclodextrin and their most recent and relevant applications in the intelligent drug delivery systems. Based on relevant literatures, the development of environment sensitive hydrogel responsive to physical, chemical and biochemical stimuli was introduced, involving their categorization, design principles, mechanism of action and potential application. Various new types of intelligent drug delivery system, which responds to various triggers, could be constructed by using the cyclodextrin-based environment sensitive hydrogel. They made it possible to control the drug release freely. Although these hydrogels are still at their research stage, they have attracted considerable interest in the intelligent drug delivery system.

Acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by non-cardiogenic,acute,progressive and hypoxic respiratory insufficiency or respiratory failure mediated by various internal and external stimuli.The pathogeny of lung injury is varied,pathogenesis is complicated,and it is not clear.Related pathogeny and pathogensis of lung injury is reviewed as follows.

Anticancer drugs resistance is often ascribed to gene mutation,amplification or epigenetic changes that affect the uptake,metabolism or export of drugs at the cell level.Tumor physical microenvironment not only influences the drug distribution but also causes difference in cell proliferation rate and hypoxia or acidosis due to its heterogeneity,which could affect the tumor drug resistance.This review discusses the relationship between cancer physical microenvironment and drug resistance and the strategies for enhancement of the chemotherapy sensitivity through modification of the tumor physical microenvironments,as well as foreground of the research.

OBJECTIVE:To observe the safety and immunological effects of Measles-mumps-rubella(MMR)attenuated live at-tenuated vaccine in children. METHODS:300 children aged 8-12 months receiving inoculation were selected from Changsha Hospi-tal for Maternal and Child Health Care during Jan. 2015-Apr. 2016 to observe safety and immunological effects. Those children were divided into MMR group,measles vaccine group,mumps vaccine group and rubella vaccine group according to vaccine type, with 75 cases in each group. The occurrence of ADR in 72 h were compared among 4 groups after inoculation;venous blood of chil-dren was collected before vaccination and 5 months after vaccination,and the antibody positive test was carried out by micro coagu-lation inhibition (HI) test;HI antibody titer was recorded after immunization,and positive rate and genometric meantiter(GMT) were calculated. RESULTS:The incidence of ADR in 4 groups were 9.33%,8.00%,8.00% and 10.67%,respectively. No local ADR was found in 4 groups;among systemic ADR,the incidence of fever was higher than that of other clinical manifestations,be-ing 4.00%,4.00%,4.00% and 5.33%;there was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR among 4 groups(P>0.05). Measles,mumps and rubella antibody positive rates of MMR group were 100%,92.00% and 100%,respectively;antibody posi-tive rates of measles vaccine group,mumps vaccine group and rubella vaccine group were 100%,85.33% and 100%,respective-ly;there was no statistical significance in same antibody positive rate among 4 groups(P>0.05). GMT of measles in MMR group and measles vaccine group were 1∶41 and 1∶27,that of mumps in MMR group and mumps vaccine group were 1∶6.3 and 1∶6.2, there was no statistical significance (P>0.05);GMT of rubella in MMR group and rubella vaccine group were 1∶320 and 1∶849, with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Compared to traditional single vaccine,MMR dose not increase the inci-dence of ADR and not influence positive rate,but GMT of rubella increases significantly,to which should be paid attention.

PNAS-4 is a novel pro-apoptosis gene identified latetly. In recent years, there has been a large number of research reports on the basic studies about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy and gene therapy of PNAS-4 alone or combined with chemotherapy or radiotherapy manifested a good application prospect, but its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis is not clear yet. In this paper, recent research about PNAS-4 in cancer gene therapy is briefly reviewed, and recent hypotheses on its molecular mechanisms to promote apoptosis are especially elucidated. Based on its newly identified characteristics of structural domain, we made a point that PNAS-4 might regulate functions of some target protein related to apoptosis by deSumoylation as a new deSumoylating isopeptidase, and consequently promote apoptosis.

Objective To explore the expression and significance of TGF-β1 and CTGF in the occurrence and development of patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage. Methods Cerebrospinal fluid TGF-β1 and CTGF concentrations in all subjects were serially detected by ELISA. Results Mean total TGF-β1 and CTGF in patients were elevated more than that in controls at the first day(P＜0.05).Thereafter the levels of TGF-β1 and CTGF fell by the third day, then rose to the second peak at the tenth day and remained significantly increase until the sixteenth day(P＜0.05).The levels of TGF-β1 was positive correlated CTGF. Conclusion The expressions of TGF-β1 and CTGF in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage showed two peaks character. After SAH, the concentration of TGF-β1 and CTGF concentration is related to chronic communicating hydrocephalus.

Objective To investigate the dynamic changes of serum interleukin (IL)-1β,tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α,cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 levels in patients with acute gouty arthritis with various severityes and to provide evidence for the course of anti-inflammatory drug used in patients with acute gouty arthritis.Methods Ninety patients with gouty arthritis were randomly selected including sixty acute gouty arthritis patients and thirty gout patients in remission (observation group 3).Sixty acute gouty arthritis patients were divided into severe (observation group 1) and mild (observation group 2) subgroups according to the chief complaints and pain score points (VRS-4 method).All acute gouty arthritis patients were given the same dose and duration of etoricoxib and colchicine (14 days in all).Serum IL-1β,TNF-α,COX-2 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) after the 1,3,7,10 and 14 days after onset.The 2-tailed independent samples t test was used for the analysis of measurement data.ANOVA were adapted for the comparison between groups.Results The serum levels of IL-1β,TNF-α in the observation group 1,2 were significantly higher than those in the control group in day 1 and 7 (P＜0.01),and almost completely returned to normal at day 10 to 14 day anti-inflammatory therapy.The serum COX-2 levels in observation group 1,2 were significantly higher than those in the control group (P＜0.01) in day 1 to 3,and returned to normal at day 7 to 10 after anti-inflammatory therapy.There were no significant differences between observation group3 and the control group (t=-0.880,-1.201,-0.548; P=0.383,0.235,0.586).② The serum levels of IL-1β,TNF-α were significantly higher in observation group 1 than those in observation group 2 [(24±5) pg/ml and(19±3) pg/ml,(323±84) ng/ml and (234±29) ng/ml; P=0.001,0.002],while there was no significant differences between observation group 2 and the control group (P=0.357).The serum COX-2 levels in observation group 1 were significantly higher than those in observation group 2 at day 7 [(12.9±2.0) pg/ml and (9.1±1.6) pg/ml],while there was no significant difference between observation group 2 and the control group (P=0.941).Conclusion Inflammatory factor can return to normal completely after anti-inflammatory therapy for acute gouty arthritis for 10 to 14 days.This study provides evidence for the course of anti-inflammatory drug used in patients with acute gouty arthritis.
