OBJECTIVE:To establish an HPLC method for determination of triamcinolone acetonide(TA), diphenhydramine hydrochloride(DH) and miconazole nitrate(MN) in compound miconazole nitrate cream(MNC). METHODS: The determination was performed on Hypersil ODS2. The mobile phase consisted of methanol-acetonitrile-0.5% ammonium acetate (45∶35∶20) at a flow rate of 1.0 mL?min-1. The UV detection wavelength was 234 nm; the column temperature was 40 ℃ and the inject volume was 20 ?L. RESULTS: The linear ranges for MN, TA and DH were 0.16～0.64 (r=0.999 8), 0.02～0.06 (r=0.999 9) and 0.08～0.24 (r=0.999 2) mg?L-1 respectively, with their average recoveries at 100.0%, 99.6% and 100.7%, RSD at 1.2%, 0.8% and 0.9%(n=3) respectively. CONCLUSION: The HPLC method can be used for the simultaneous determination of the three constituents in CMNC.

Many microbial pathogens,including those responsible for major enteric infections,exploit oligosaccharides that are displayed on the surface of host cells as receptors for toxins and adhesins. Blocking crucial ligand receptor interactions is therefore a promising therapeutic strategy. One approach is to express molecular mimics of host receptors on the surface of harmless recombinant bacteria that can survive in the gut. These recombinant probiotics bind bacterial toxins in the gut lumen with very high avidity,thereby preventing disease.

Fermentation property and kinetic analysis of the inhibition of in vitro growth of pathogenic Escherichia coli K88, O138 by Lactobacillus intestinalis isolated from porcine intestine mucus were investi-gated. The results of fermentation showed that L1 result in a pH of 3.90 within 12 h and a large amount of lactic acid production, with the concentration of 104.08 mmol/L. Kinetic analysis of the antibacterial activity of L1 metabolic product toward K88, O138 showed that CFUS display strong antibacterial activity toward K88, O138; the antibacterial activity of L1 CFUS was higher than the lactic acid control samples and was mainly due to the production of lactic acid; K88, O138 had the tolerance property toward pH 4.5.

Fluorescence enhancement reaction of flavoxate hydrochloride (FX) in strong alkali solution was studied, the mechanism of the reaction was investigated, and a novel fluorimetric method for analysis of FX in drug sample was established. FX has no intrinsic fluorescence, but it can slowly produce fluorescence in strong alkali solution. Heating can promote the fluorescence enhancement reaction. In 3D fluorescence spectra of the decomposition product of FX, two fluorescence peaks, located respectively at excitation wavelengths λex/ emission wavelength λem =223/410 nm, and 302/410 nm, were observed. Using quinine sulfate as a reference, fluorescence quantum yield of the decomposition product was measured to be 0.50. The structural characteriza- tion and spectral analysis of the decomposition product reveal that ester bond hydrolysis reaction of FX is firstly occurred during heating process, forming 3-methylflavone-8-carboxylic acid (MFA), then a cleavage reaction of the γ-pyrone ring of MFA occurred, producing α, β-unsaturated ketone. This product includes adjacent hydroxyl benzoic acid group in its molecule, which can form intramolecular hydrogen bond under alkaline condition, so that increase the conjugate degree and enhance the rigidity of the molecule, and thereby cause fluorescence enhancement. Based on this fluorescence enhancement reaction, a fluorimetric method was proposed for the determination of FX. A linear calibration curve covered the concentration range 0.020 3-0.487 µg · mL. The regression equation was I(F) = 23.9 + 5357.3 c, with correlation coefficient r = 0.999 7 (n = 8), detection limit D = 1.1 ng · mL(-1). The method was applied to the analysis of FX tablets, with a spiked recovery rate of 100.2%. The reliability of the method was verified by a UV-spectrophotometric method.

Objective To explore the clinical application of jiont detection of critical patients procalcitomin (PCT)and (1,3)-beta D-glucan with deep fungus infection in ICU.Methods From November 2012 to August 2014 diagnosed with deep fun-gal infection of ICU critical patients,106 cases of patients with serum PCT and (1,3)-beta-D glucan content detection,and ICU of deep fungal infection in critically ill patients,519 cases were analyzed,with differencesbetween the paired t test to compare the results.Results 106 patients with deep fungal infection of ICU critical patients serum PCT for 0.701 ±0.22 pg/ml and (1,3)-beta-D glucan for 37.82±18.43 pg/ml,significantly higher than the 519 cases of ICU of deep fungal infec-tion in critically ill patients in the serum PCT for 0.238±0.12 pg/ml and (1,3)-beta-D glucan for 14.96 ±4.37 pg/ml, comparing differences between both results was statistically significant (t=7.426,8.179,P <0.05).106 patients with deep fungal infection of ICU critical patients serum PCT positive detection rate was 57.5% (61/106),significantly lower than the (1,3)-beta-D glucan positive detection rate 89.6% (95/106),difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 13.645,P <0.05).Conclusion Deep fungal infection in critical care patients in the ICU in the serum PCT and (1,3)-beta-D glucan con-tent of deep fungus infection in critically ill patients was significantly higher than the ICU,PCT and (1,3)-beta-D glucan joint detection of deep fungal infection in patients with ICU critical patients diagnosis has important clinical significance.

Aim To investigate the effect of the GABAA receptor on the analgesia,hypnosis and amnesia induced by GABA in mice.Methods GABA was intracerebroventricularly(icv) injected and securinine,a GABAA receptor antagonist,was intravenously(iv) injected after the GABA intracerebroventricularly injection.Then four techniques including hot-plate test,acetic acid-induced writhing test,awaken test as well as step-through test & step-down test were employed to evaluate the effects on the pain index in hot-plate test(HPPI),the writhing times,the sleeping time(ST) and the latency & the number of errors.Results GABA increased the HPPI and ST,but decreased writhing times and the latency & increased the number of errors in conscious mice;the above effects are dose-dependent.Securinine could antagonize the effects stimulated by GABA.Conclusion GABA lead to analgesia,hypnosis and amnesia.GABAA receptor might be the important target for these effects.

Aleutian mink disease parvovirus (AMDV) causes a persistent infection associated with immune complex disease, hypergammaglobulinemia, and high levels of antiviral antibodies. Despite the presence of an antibody, the virus is not cleared in vivo. Pre-existing antibodies may enhance viral infections, by Fc-receptor-mediated antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), but the mechanism that underlies ADE has not been fully defined. Three models have been proposed, including: (1) interactions between antibody and FcR, complement C3 fragment and CR, or between C1q and C1qR, which promotes viral attachment to cells; (2) suppression of IFN-gamma-mediated host-cell antiviral gene expression by the upregulation of negative regulators of pathogen pattern recognition; and (3) the promotion of early IL-10 secretion. In addition, the role of cytokine IL-6 in ADE mediated disease development is discussed, to facilitate a better understanding of the pathogenesis of AMDV infection, as well as give insights into rational vaccine design approaches.

To study the influence of foreign plasmid DNA on spleen metabolism in immune-stimulated mice via the gastrointestinal tract. Mice were oral administered by pipette with 200?g of plasmid pcDNA3 and spleen were isolated at 4h and 18h after oral administration. Total RNA were extracted from spleen and spleen gene expression profile of Balb/c mice was analyzed by using Affymetrix oligonucleotide genechip after oral plasmid pcDNA3 administration. Functional cluster analysis was conducted by Genmapp and MAPPFinder software. By functional cluster analyzing the genes which were up-regulated more than twofolds, Genmapp results showed that plenty of metabolic pathway were induced in spleen after oral administration of plasmid pcDNA3. These metabolic process included purine metabolism, pyrimidine metabolism, protein synthesis, cholesterol synthesis, fatty acid synthesis, Glycolysis, TCA cycle and mitochondria oxidative phosphorylation pathway. The similar results also took place at 18h after oral administration. The result indicated that foreign plasmid DNA can modulate metabolism process in spleen of mice via the gastrointestinal tract, and may help understand the mechanism of action of foreign plasmid DNA uptaked via the gastrointestinal tract.
