Mitochondrial oxidative stress has been recognized as a preliminary and critical factor that aggravates the pathological cascade of Alzheimer's disease, which induces the production of β-amyloid protein, upregulates the expression of phosphorylated tau protein and triggers oxidative damage to lipids, proteins and mitochondrial deoxyribonucleic acid. Central neurons are more vulnerable to oxidative stress than non-neuronal cells due to their high oxygen demand, abundant unsaturated fatty acids and antioxidant enzymes deficiency. On this account, this review introduces the causes of mitochondrial oxidative stress, and analyzes the important role of mitochondrial oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Meanwhile, the review focuses on the design and intervention strategies of drug delivery systems targeting mitochondrial oxidative stress in neurons, aiming to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

AIM: To observe the effect of compound anisodine injection combined with yi-qi-tong-luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm.
METHODS: Selected in our hospital, 60 cases (78 eyes) with blepharospasm were randomly divided into two groups, 30 cases 39 eyes in each group. The observation group were treated with compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture treatment, and supplemented by hot compress and massage, while the control group only with compound anisodine injection. We compared the treatment effect of the two groups.
RESULTS: In the observation group, 38 eyes were clinically effective, 1 eye was invalid, 35 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 97%, the markedly effective rate was 90%; in control group, 32 eyes were the clinically effective, 7 eyes invalid, 23 eyes marked, the total effective rate was 82%, the markedly effective rate was 59%; the total effective rate and markedly effective rate of observation group were higher than those of the control group with statistical difference (P<0. 05). The recurrence rates of the two groups were 5% and 34%, respectively, and the recurrence rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P <0. 05).
CONCLUSION: The compound anisodine injection combined with yi - qi - tong - luo acupuncture, hot compress and massage for blepharospasm, can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment, with higher effective rate and lower recurrence rate, compared with using compound anisodine alone.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect and possible mechanism of intrapleural administra- tion of cisplatin bound to activated carbon particles for treating malignant pleura] effusions(MPE). Methods ①60 patients with MPE confirmed in the Third Hospital of Changzhou and the Second Hospital of Changzhou from 2004 to 2007 were randomly divided into treatment group (n=30)and control group(n=30). Chest catheters were inserted percutaneously into the pleural space to drain the effusions. Cisplatin mixed with activated carbon particles for the treatment group and only cisplatin for the control group were injected into pleural cavity. Whether above-mentioned treatment should be repeated was determined by ultrasonic B every week until up to four times. Curative effect and side-effect were compared between two groups a month later. ②20 cases, randomly selected from both groups respectively, underwent whole body and chest SPECT scan to image lymphatic system by means of 99Tcm-DX after effusions drainage but before intrapleural injection of drug. Cases whose imaging graphics were abnormal would undergo the above SPECT again 2 weeks after intrapleural injection of drug so as to find changes in imaging graphics. Results ① The overall response rate was significantly higher in treatment group than in control group(100% (30/30) vs 66.7% (20/30), χ2=12.00, P<0.01)and that intrapleural injection was needed only once in most cases. Gastrointestinal upset and leucoponia were less and milder in treatment group than in control group (16.7% (5/30) vs 30.0% (9/30) and 6.7% (2/30) vs 20.0% (6/30) respectively),but there was no statistical difference between the two groups(χ2=1.49 and 1.30,P>0.05). ②The rate of improvement in lymphatic imaging was significantly higher in treatment group than in control group (78.6% (11/14) vs 37.5% (6/16),P<0.05). Conclusion The treatment of malignant pleural effusions with intrapleural administration of cisplatin bound to activated carbon particles is extremely effective and safe, and can improve lymphatic drainage as well.

Objective To investigate the effect of tacrolimus on the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in HaCaT cells stimulated by tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and on the expression of glucocorticoid receptor (GR)α and β in untreated HaCaT cells in vitro.Methods Cultured Ha CaT cells were treated with TNF-α(10μg/L) only,combination of TNF-α(10μg/L) and various concentrations (10-8mol/L, 10-7mol/L,10-6moL/L) of tacrolimus or tacrolimus of different concentrations only.After additional 12-,24-, 36- or 48-hour cnlture, Westem blot and immunofluorescenee-confocal laser scanning microscopy were used to detect the expressions of NF-κB,GRα and GRβ in HaCaT cells.Those untreated HaCaT cells served as the control.Results The relative protein expression level of NF-κB was increased in HaCaT cells after treatment with TNF-α for 24 and 48 hours zompared with untreated ceils (0.73±0.0316 and 0.8925±0.0171 vs 0.4988±0.03506,both P<0.05);however,the increase in NF-κB expression was inhibited by the combination treatment with tacrolimus,and the relative expression level of NF-κB protein was 0.6825±0.0263.0.6200±0.0163 and 0.5575±0.0299 in HaCaT cells treated with TNF-α plus tacrolimus of 10-8mol/L 10-7mol/L and 10-6mol/L,respectively;the difference was significant etween TNF-α-treated cells and those dealt with the combination of NF-α and tacrolimus of 10-7 or 10-6 mol/L (both P<0.05).No significant difference was observed in the expression of NF-κB by HaCaT cells between different time oints treated with tacrolimus of 10-8,10-7 or 10-6 mol/L.Also,there was no zignificant difference in the expression of GRα or GRβ between untreated HaCaT cells and those treated with tacrolimus of 10-8, 10-7 or 10-6 mol/L at any time point.Conclusions Tacrolimus ould inhibit the expression of NF-κB by TNF-α-stimulated HaCaT cells,but does not affect the expression of GRα or GRβ,in untreated HaCaT cells.
