In this study, we explored the feasibility of biotin-mediated modified polymeric micelles for pancreatic cancer targeted photodynamic therapy. Poly (ethylene glycol)-distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine (mPEG2000-DSPE) served as the drug-loaded material, biotin-poly(ethylene glycol)-distearoyl phosphatidyl ethanolamine (Biotin-PEG3400-DSPE) as the functional material and the polymeric micelles were prepared by a thin-film hydration method. The targeting capability of micelles was investigated by cell uptake assay in vitro and fluorescence imaging in vivo and the amounts of Biotin-PEG-DSPE were optimized accordingly. Hypocrellin B (HB), a novel photosensitizer was then encapsulated in biotinylated polymeric micelles and the anti-tumor efficacy was evaluated systemically in vitro and in vivo. The results showed that micelles with 5 mol % Biotin-PEG-DSPE demonstrated the best targeting capability than those with 20 mol % or 0.5 mol % of corresponding materials. This formulation has a small particle size [mean diameter of (36.74 ± 2.16) nm] with a homogeneous distribution and high encapsulation efficiency (80.06 ± 0.19) %. The following pharmacodynamics assays showed that the biotinylated micelles significantly enhanced the cytotoxicity of HB against tumor cells in vitro and inhibited tumor growth in vivo, suggesting a promising potential of this formulation for treatment of pancreatic cancer, especially those poorly permeable, or insensitive to radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Objective To analyze the drug using regularity in treating breast cancer in spring of professor Lu Ming. Methods Prescriptions that treated breast cancer in 2013 spring of professor Lu Ming were collected, and then metrology analysis was used to study the frequency, property, flavor and meridian attribution of herbal medicine in these prescriptions, and analyze their basic medication features. Results Among the collected 111 prescriptions of professor Lu Ming for treatment of breast cancer, the most often used prescription was sedatives and tranquilizers and nourishing yin;commonly used medications were Lanceleaf lily bulb, cortex albiziae, radix astragali, radix paeoniae alba and so on. The herbal medicine used included five kinds of properties, and the two most common ones were warm and plain. There were six different flavors, among which sweet and bitter were the two most common ones. Nine meridian attributions were identified, among which liver meridian and spleen meridian were the two most common ones. Conclusion Clinical treatment of breast cancer should be based on sweet-warm nourishing herbal medicine, while paying attention to tranquilizing and sedating the mind. Symptoms should be treated by using clearing heat and promoting diuresis. In addition, it should be noted that the spring medication should conform the warmth of spring qi.

The serum level of CXCL10 was determined in both patients with Graves' disease (GD) and normal control subjects.Serum CXCL10 levels in untreated and relapsed GD groups were higher compared with the remission group and control group( P＜0.01 ).A significant difference was observed between the former two GD groups (P＜0.01 ),but no difference was found between latter two groups( P＞0.05 ).Serum CXCL10 levels were positively correlated with FT3 and FT4,and negatively correlated with TSH by multiple linear regression analysis( P＜0.01 ).

Objective: To determine the antibody titer in the serum of allergic rabbits after the injection of 1, 3-di-caffeoylquinic acid contained in Shuanghuanglian injection.Methods: The complete antigen was prepared by incubating the suspected small molecular hapten 1, 3-di-caffeoylquinic acid contained in Shuanghuanglian injection with the serum from the normal rabbits.The specific antibody was obtained in the immunized rabbits.The antibody titers of antiserum were measured by ELISA kits.Indirect competitive ELISA was used to determine serological specificity, and the obtained data was used to plot the inhibition curves.The content of IgE antibody in the antiserum of rabbits was detected by rabbit immunoglobulin E (IgE) ELISA kits.Results: The antibody titer (A) of 1,3-di-caffeoylquinic acid was 2 times higher than that of the negative control, which indicated its potential allergenicity.The regression equation was I=0.170 6 lg C + 0.317 5 , which was with the correlation coefficient of r=0.985 4 , the detection limit of IC 10 =57.40 μg·ml-1 and the half inhibitory concentration of IC 50 =8.732 0 mg·ml-1.Furthermore, the exogenous IgE antibody was produced in the rabbits.Conclusion: The results indicated that the hapten substance 1,3-di-caffeoylquinic acid in Shuanghuanglian injection was allergenic under the present experimental conditions.

ObjectiveTo reproduce a clinically relevant two-hit model of sepsis complicated by pneumonia and to explore the correlation between two-hit and immune state.Methods Eighty-one male Sprague-Dawley ( SD ) rats were divided into groups according to the random number table. Forty-five male rats were assigned respectively to sepsis-alone group, pneumonia 4 days and 7 days after sepsis groups, respectively. Survival rate of each group was observed. Another group of 36 male rats were divided into normal control group, sepsis-alone for 1, 4 and 7 days groups, and sepsis complicated by pneumonia for 4 days and 7 days after sepsis groups, each group consisted of 6 rats. Cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) was done in rats, andStreptococcus pneumoniae suspension (bacteria count 1×1010 cfu/mL) was injected via the nose on the 4th day or 7th day after CLP. Rats were sacrificed at corresponding time points, and 1 day after challenge ofStreptococcus pneumoniae on the 4 days or 7 days post CLP for the collection of blood and tissue samples to make bacterial count of the blood, splenocyte count, biochemical indices, cytokines concentration, pathological changes in spleen and apoptotic cells.Results① Compared with the rats of sepsis-alone group, the rats in pneumonia 4 days after CLP group had poor survival rate (4 vs. 11,χ2 = 6.533,P = 0.011), while no difference was found between pneumonia 7 days after CLP group and sepsis-alone group (9 vs. 11,χ2 = 0.600,P = 0.439).② The blood bacterial count and all the biochemical indexes were sharply increased on 1 day post-CLP in the rats of sepsis-alone group, and then they gradually lowered. Compared with the rats of 1 day post-CLP, the proportion of splenocytes were decreased on the 4th day post-CLP [dendritic cells (DC): (0.69±0.09)% vs. (0.87±0.31)%, CD4+T cells: (21.05±2.89)% vs. (24.84±4.59)%, CD8+ T cells: (10.62±1.79)% vs. (13.40±1.31)%, allP< 0.05], but T-regulatory cell (Treg) count was higher on the 4th day after CLP compared with sepsis-alone rats [(3.14±0.74 )% vs. (2.87±1.08)%,P< 0.05]. The biochemical indices, including alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and serum creatinine (SCr) were obviously lowered on 7 days post-CLP compared with 1 day after CLP [ALT (U/L): 35.33±11.52 vs. 81.00±38.40, AST (U/L): 70.33±42.16 vs. 156.00±28.11, BUN (mmol/L): 5.30±2.27 vs. 9.13±4.04, SCr (μmol/L): 55.33±10.67 vs. 96.67±45.79, allP< 0.05]. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukins (IL-6, IL-1β) peaked on the 1st day after CLP [TNF-α:(18.03±2.88) ng/L, IL-6: (10.37±4.20) ng/L, IL-1β: (102.44±51.46) ng/L], and high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) peaked on the 4th day after CLP [(1.76±0.71)μg/L]. The levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1 ) and soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-Ⅰ (sTNFR-Ⅰ) maintained at high levels [7 days post-CLP: TGF-β1 was (0.90±0.56) ng/L, sTNFR-Ⅰ was (1.56±0.39) ng/L]. The spleen pathology became more marked with the time in the group of sepsis-alone, meanwhile the number of apoptotic spleencytes increased 4 days post-CLP as compared with that of the 1st day post-CLP (cells/HP: 52.99±20.79 vs. 16.05±3.28,P< 0.05).③ Compared with the same period of sepsis-alone group, the rats with pneumonia 4 days post-CLP group showed a higher blood bacterial count (log cfu/mL: 1.78±0.54 vs. 0.25±0.18,P< 0.05), while no difference was found between 7-day of post-CLP pneumonia group and sepsis-alone group (log cfu/mL: 0.57±0.46 vs. 0.13±0.12,P> 0.05). The same trend of changes, with slight reduction in splenocytes and biochemical indices were found between the groups of sepsis followed by pneumonia and sepsis-alone, but no significant difference was found. The level of HMGB1 in the 4-day group of sepsis with complication of pneumonia was further decreased compared with sepsis-alone group (μg/L:1.17±0.74 vs. 1.76±0.71,P< 0.05), and IL-1β in the 7-day group of sepsis complicated pneumonia was further higher than those of sepsis-alone group in the same period (ng/L: 105.73±25.06 vs. 61.04±31.29,P< 0.05), while there were no differences in levels of other cytokines between two-hit group and sepsis-alone group. Apoptosis of spleencytes in the 4-day group of sepsis complicated pneumonia was more marked than that of sepsis-alone group at the same period (cells/HP: 74.48±22.47 vs. 52.99±20.79,P< 0.05), while no difference was found between the 7-day groups of sepsis complicated pneumonia and the sepsis-alone group (cells/HP: 28.70±4.13 vs. 30.43±14.55, P> 0.05).Conclusions The mortality of this two-hit model with complication of pneumonia 4 days after CLP was significantly higher than that of single sepsis model. The ability of bacteria clearance was decreased, and immunocyte apoptosis was exacerbated. These findings may be with the result of the occurrence of immunoparalysis in the mid stage of sepsis. The two-hit model reproduced on 7 days after CLP might suggest reconstruction of host immune function, and maybe associated with the recovery of immune response.

Objective To investigate the application significance of 3.0T MR three dimensional double-echo steady state(3D-DESS) and three dimensional-true fast imaging with steady-state procession(3D-True FISP) sequences in diagnosis of wrist cartilage of rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods 26 patients who were clinically diagnosed with RA underwent wrist MR scans with 3D-DESS and 3D-True FISP sequences, while both sequences' scanning were achieved on 20 of them.340 articular-surface morphological conditions' were observed,which were divided into level 0, level 1 and level 2 damages according to morphological performance,and recorded on 3D-DESS and 3D-True FISP sequence respectively.The diagnostic differences in the number of lesions were compared for two sequences.Results The numbers were 79 and 50 for level 1 damage and 23 and 33 for level 2 damage on 3D-DESS and 3D-True FISP sequence respectively (P<0.05).The artifacts were showed in 14 patients on 3D-True FISP,and only two patients on 3D-DESS.Conclusion 3D-DESS sequence does better than 3D-True FISP in displaying RA wrist cartilage,which is able to provide certain help for treatment and prognosis evaluation of RA.

OBJECTIVE To observe the protective effect and underlying mechanism of total ginsenosides (TG) on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. METHODS Intratracheal instillation of bleomycin 5 mg · kg-1 was conducted to establish a pulmonary fibrosis mouse model. Kunming mice(1/2 males and 1/2 females)were randomly divided into sham-operation(Sham),model,total ginsen?osides 40,80 and 160 mg·kg-1 and prednisone acetate(5 mg·kg-1) groups. After 28 d administration,the histopathological changes in the lung were analyzed by hematoxylin eosin(HE)and Masson staining. The exprssion of alpha smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)in the lung was detected by real-time PCR. The content of hydroxyproline(HYP)and glutathione(GSH),level of total antioxidant capacity(T-AOC)and hydroxy radical(·OH),activity of myeloperoxidase(MPO)and nitric oxide synthase(NOS)in the lung were detected by corresponding kits. RESULTS Compared with the sham group,the pulmonary indexes in model group were significantly increased(P<0.01),alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis were obvious. The mRNA expression ofα-SMA,content of HYP and · OH,activity of MPO and NOS were increased(P<0.05),but the content of GSH and T-AOC in model group was decreased(P<0.05). Compared with model group,the pulmonary indexes in TG 80 and 160 mg · kg-1 and prednisone acetate 5 mg · kg-1 groups were reduced(P<0.05),and the degree of alveolitis and pulmonary fibrosis was mitigated. The mRNA expression ofα-SMA,content of HYP and · OH, the activity of MPO and NO were decreased (P<0.05),while the content of GSH and T-AOC was increased(P<0.05). CONCLUSION TG can improve the degree of mice pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin. The mechanism may be related to the increased antioxidant capacity of organisms.
