OBJECTIVE:To further enhance the implementation level of new Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) in phar-maceutical enterprises. METHODS:Based on the new GMP criteria and Guidelines for Risk Assessment of Pharmaceutical Produc-tion Site Inspection,a tracking inspection was conducted for the 31 pharmaceutical enterprises in 11 prefecture-level cities of Guangxi area. Defects of implementing new GMP and their causes were analyzed,and the suggestions were put forward. RESULTS& CONCLUSIONS:In the 31 pharmaceutical enterprises,there were 30 enterprises(96.8%)passed the new GMP tracking inspec-tion. Totally 331 defect items were found,focusing on equipment(76 items,23.0%),factory and facilities(47 items,14.2%),quality control and quality assurance(43 items,13.0%). Causes for defects were mainly institutions and staff training,factory and facilities,equipments management,maintenance and periodic check were far from satisfactory;material and product did not speci-fy a validity period or a retest period;relevant confirmation was incomplete with verification;the quality control,assurance,man-agement,document and production management were not standard and completed;and self-test program was too simple,etc. It is suggested that drug regulatory authorities should establish and improve the legal system,explore new patterns of drug GMP track-ing inspection (such as sudden unannounced inspection,detailed inspection),strengthen inspector team training and unify inspec-tion scale. And the pharmaceutical enterprises should produce drugs in line with the requirements of new GMP,focus on the update of key knowledge,strengthen relevance of training to ensure the drugs quality effectively by multilateral force.

Objectives To investigate the clinical features of clomiphene citrate (CC) resisitant in patients with the polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS). Methods A total of 145 women with PCOS were analyzed in the center for reproductive medicine of our hospital. According to the responses to CC ,patients were divided into two groups:(1)the CC resistant group(n = 32),(2)the CC response group(n = 113). The clinical features were compared between these two groups. Results (1)Body weight,body mass index(BMI),blood pressure and F?G scores were significantly higher in the CC resistant group than those in the CC response group (P < 0.05, respectively).(2)Basic antral follicle counts(AFC),C reaction protein(CRP),fasting insulin(FI)and HOMA?IR in the CC resistant group were significantly higher than those in the CC response group (P < 0.05, respectively),however,no significant difference was observed in sex hormones between these two groups. Conclusion PCOS patients with CC resistant are more likely to have higher body weight,BMI,blood pressure, insulin resistant?indexes and basic AFC ,the clinical doctors should consider these features before the treatment of ovulation induction.

Aim To investigate endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS)-mediated high-fat diet and palmitic acid-induced insulin resistance ( IR) in skeletal muscle and interventional effects of fenofibrate both in vivo and in vitro tests. Methods Female SD rats were randomly subjected to a standard control diet ( SCD) or high-fat diet ( HFD) for 20 weeks, then the HFD group was di-vided into high-fat-diet group and high-fat-diet group treated with fenofibrate ( HFD +FF, 30 mg · kg-1 · d-1 ) for another 8 weeks. The changes of IR and ex-pression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α( PPARα) , glucose regulated protein 78 ( GRP78 ) and transcription factors GADD153 ( CHOP ) were as-sessed respectively. C2C12 myotubes were divided into normal control group ( NC ) , model group ( palmitic acid, PA) , postive control drug group ( tunicamycin, TM) and treatment group ( fenofibric acid, FA+PA) , the expressions of GRP78 and CHOP were assessed re-spectively. Insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt was also analyzed to detect changes of insulin sensitivi-ty in C2 C12 . Results The high-fat diet induced obvi-ous IR and upregulated ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP in skeletal muscle of rats, and these responses were attenuated by treatment with fenofibrate. Incuba-tion of myotubes with palmitic acid or tunicamycin sig-nificantly increased expression of ERS markers GRP78 and CHOP. Meanwhile, insulin-stimulated phosphoryl-ation of Akt was inhibited obviously. Pre-incubation with FA markedly inverted PA-induced ERS and insu-lin-stimulated phosphorylation of Akt. Conclusion Fenofibrate ( fenofibric acid) has obvious effects of IR on skeletal muscle tissues and cells, which may be re-lated with reduced expression of GRP78 and CHOP in ERS.

BACKGROUND:YOUMET cervical dilating rod is made of absorbent polymer materials and has non-toxic side effects, which can avoid cross-infection in one-time use. OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical effects of YOUMET cervical dilating rod used for cervical orifice dilation before intrauterine device insertion and removal as wel as before artificial abortion operations. METHODS:Totaly 275 female subjects schedule for cervical dilation during intrauterine device insertion and removal operations, and suction abortion for pregnancy within 10 weeks were randomly divided into two groups: 137 were included in observation group in which YOUMET cervical dilating rods were applied and 138 were included in control group in which Gongshuning glue sticks were used. Their cervical softening and dilatation situation, analgesic effect, and combined reactions during operation were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Between the two groups, no statistical significance in general biological characteristics was found; Dilating effects in intrauterine device removing operations during child-bearing period and menopause were better in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). Rates of pain during insertion were higher in the observation group than the control group (P < 0.05). Rates of pain during indweling period for both groups were comparatively low, which showed no statistical significance. There was no record related to the application of cervical orifice dilating products in postoperative folow-up visit. Both products were safe with no cervical injury, slow heart rate and drop in blood pressure. YOUMET cervical dilating rod has trustworthy and safe dilating effects, which can remarkably aleviate pain.

Objective To investigate the effect and possible mechanism of erlotinib,an epidermal growth factor recceptor inhibitor,on human pancreatic cancer cell lines BxPC3 in vitro.Methods Methyhhiazolyhetrazolium(MTT)assay was used to detected the proliferation of BxPC3 after exposure to erlotinib,apoptosis and cell cycle changes were studied by flow eytometry and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick end labeling assay(TUNEL).The expressions of bcl-2 mRNA,bax mRNA,bcl-xL mRNA and bak mRNA were determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results Edotinib inhibited BxPC3 cells growth in a dose and time dependent manner in vitro.The cell viabilities in erlotinib 1 μmol/L and 100 μmol/L groups 72 h later were(90.25 ±2.62)%and(40.75 ±2.98)%,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).The cell viability in edotinib 50 μmol/L groups 24 h and 96 h after BxPC3 exposure were(74.0±4.08)%and(49.50 ±1.29)%,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.01).Cell apoptosis rate in erlotinib 50 μmol/L group was(11.0 μ1.1)%,which was significantly higher than(6.2 ±1.1)%in control group(P<0.01).G_0/G_1 cell accounted for (73.4±1.3)%of all the cells,which was significantly higher than(63.3 ±1.O)%in control group.With transmission electron microscope,the morphology of BxPC3 ceils showed typical apoptosis and apoptotic body. The expressions of bcl-2 mRNA,bel-xl mRNA were down-regulated,while the expression of bax mRNA was slightly up-regulated,and the expression of bak mRNA was not affected.Conclusions The growth of BxPC3 cells could be suppressed by erlotinib and possible mechanisms involved blocking cell cycle,up-regulating apoptosis proteins and down-regulating apoptosis inhibitor proteins.
