Objective:To develop a simple and rapid HPLC method to determine the concentration and pharmacokinetics of gliqui-done in human plasma. Methods: Acetonitrile was used to precipitate plasma proteins directly and gliquidone was detected by an HPLC-fluorescence assay. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-20 mmol·L-1 biphosphate potassium (80∶20, v/v, pH 2. 5). The flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1 . The excitation wavelength was 315 nm and the emission wavelength was 410 nm. Results:The line-arity of gliquidone in plasma was good from 0. 034 to 2. 2 μg·ml-1 and the quantitative lower limit was 0. 034 μg·ml-1 . The range of method recovery was 99. 23%-108. 11%, and that of extraction recovery was 85. 78%-88. 77%. The intra-and inter-day precision was both less than 10%. Both specificity and stability met the requirements. Gliquidone in plasma was determined using the above method after a single oral dose of 60 mg gliquidone tablets in 20 healthy volunteers, and then the pharmacokinetic parameters were ana-lyzed. The variation coefficients were close to or more than 50%. Conclusion:The method is simple, rapid and sensitive, and suit-able for the detection of gliquidone in a large quantity. Individualized administration of gliquidone should be considered due to the obvi-ous individual difference in pharmacokinetics.

Objective:To probe the mechanism of inhibition in gap junction-mediated intercellular communication (GJIC) of rabbit lens epithelia cells(RLECs) irradiated by UVA. Methods:RLECs of 2～3 generation were divided into normal control group and ultraviolet irradiation group (The UV intensity was 0.2 mW/cm2 under a UV lamp with fixed position 50 cm, RLECs were exposed to ultraviolet lamp at different times: 5,10,15 minutes). Western blot techniques were employed to detect the protein levels of Cx43 irradiated by UVA. By indirect immunofluorescence histochemistry we analyzed the localization of Cx43 in the RLECs. Results:In UVA irradiation group and normal control group,there was expression of Cx43. With the increasing intensity,the expression of Cx43 was decreasing. The immunnostaining of Cx43 in RLECs revealed that the internalization of Cx43 from membrance to plasma and nuclear was found in UVA irradiated RLECs. Conclusion: Cell molecule level study proved UVA irradiation can reduce GJIC of RLECs,which wis associated with perturbations in localization and number of Cx43 among RLECs.
