OBJECTIVE:To study the relative bioavailability,pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of domestic nisoldipine tablets in healthy volunteers.METHODS:A single oral dose of 10 mg test and reference nisoldipine tablets were given to 24 male healthy volunteers in an open randomized 2?2 latin square design.The plasma concentrations of nisoldipine at different time points were determined by LC-MS and the pharmacokinetic parameters of the two kinds of tablets were computed and their bioequiavailability was evaluated.RESULTS:The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the test vs.reference formulations of nisoldipine in 24 healthy volunteers were as follows:Cmax(2.94?2.78)ng?mL-1 vs.(3.22?2.16)ng?mL-1,tmax(1.70?1.00)h vs.(1.40?1.00)h,t1/2(6.81?4.11)h vs.(5.55?2.35)h,AUC0～24(10.60?7.70)ng?h?mL-1 vs.(9.90?6.76)ng?h?mL-1,AUC0～∞(11.30?7.90)ng?h?mL-1 vs.(10.20?7.00)ng?h?mL-1.The relative bioavailability of domestic nisoldipine tablets was(110.3?30.8)%.CONCLUSION:The reference preparation and the test preparation of nisoldipine tablets were proved to be bioequivalent.

In order to construct recombinant baculovirus carrying Schistosoma japonicum 26 ku glutathione S-transferase gene (Sj26), and observe the expression of Sj26 in mammalian cells, the Sj26 gene was amplified with plasmid pGEX-3X as template by PCR, and then recombined into T vector for sequencing. Sj26 gene was inserted into the downstream of CMV promoter of donor plasmid pFBDGC, and the recombinant donor plasmid pFBDGC-Sj26 transformed into DH10Bac, then the recombinant bacmid AcCMVSj26 was isolated and transfected into Sf9 cells. The recombinant baculovirus was harvested and final titer of vAcCMVSj26 was measured. BHK cells were transducted with recombinant baculovirus in vitro. By using Western blot, the expression of 26 ku glutathione S-transferase (GST) was detected. The results showed that after enzyme digestion and sequencing, the donor plasmid was successfully constructed. PCR confirmed that pFBDGC-Sj26 and Bacmid homologous recombination occurred in E. coli. After transfection of Sf9 cells with recombinant Bacmid, recombinant baculovirus was replicated in Sf9 cells and expressed green fluorescent protein. PCR further revealed recombinant baculovirus contained Sj26. The titer of the harvested baculovirus was 1.24 x 10(8). Western blot demonstrated that recombinant baculovirus could express 26 ku GST in BHK cells. It was concluded that Sj26 recombinant baculovirus was successfully constructed, and the 26 ku GST was expressed in mammalian cells.

OBJECTIVEQingkailing injection (QKLI), Jinnaduo injection (JNDI), Shuxuetong injection (SXTI), Shenmai injection (SMI) and Kangai injection (KAI) are widely used in China. To predict the herb-drug interactions in clinical application, they were evaluated for their in vitro inhibition effect on CYP3A in rat liver microsomes.

METHODThe rat liver microsomes were incubated with different doses of 5 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine injections (TCMIs) in the present of testosterone, a specific substrate of CYP3A. 6beta-hydroxytestosterone, the metabolite of testosterone, was monitored by HPLC to compare the inhibition effect of 5 TCMIs on CYP3A in rat liver microsomes. Ketoconazole was used as a positive control.

RESULT10% QKLI reduced the formation of 6beta-hydroxytestosterone by approximately 93.0%, which is more significant than other four TCMIs. The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) and the enzyme-inhibitor constant K(i) were 1.0% and 0.7% respectively.

CONCLUSIONQKLI showed much stronger inhibition activity against CYP3A, comparing to other 4 TCMIs. The results revealed that QKLI may be involved in herb-drug interactions by inhibition of CYP3A.

Objective To assess the efficacy of mecobalamin and glutathione in preventing the neurotoxicity induced by oxaliplatin (L-OHP).Methods A randomized,placebo and control study was made ,in which 9 6 patients with colorectal cancer received L-OHP and 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU)was randomly divided into control group treated with normal saline,mecobalamin group with mecobalamin and glutathione group with glutathione,respectively,32 cases for each.Rate of neurotoxicity and severity was observed by L-OHP-specific neurotoxicity grading and neurological symptom score (NSS).Results Rates of neurotoxicity in control group,mecobalamin group and glutathione group were 90.3%(28 /32),46.7%(14 /32)and 59.4%(19 /32)respectively.After 3-cycle and 6-cycle chemotherapy,the rate of neurotoxicity in degree Ⅱ~Ⅲ was lower in mecobal-amin group than in other groups,but the differences were not significant (P >0.05),whereas NSS score was obviously lower in mecobalamin group than in other groups (P <0.05,P <0.01),but the difference between control group and glutathione group was not significant (P >0.05).Conclu-sion Mecobalamin can prevent the rate and severity of oxaliplatin-induced neurotoxicity.

Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most frequent malignant tumors. In order to systematically characterize the cellular and molecular mechanisms of intestinal GC development, in this study, we used 22 K oligonucleotide microarrays and bioinformatics analysis to evaluate the gene expression profiles of GC in 45 tissue samples, including 20 intestinal GC tissue samples,20 normal appearing tissues (NATs) adjacent to tumors and 5 noncancerous gastric mucosa tissue samples. These profiles allowed us to explore the transcriptional characteristics of GC and determine the change patterns in gene expression that may be of clinical significance. 1519 and 1255 differentially- expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in intestinal GC tissues and NATs, respectively, as determined by Bayesian analysis (P < 0.001). These genes were associated with diverse functions such as mucosa secretion, metabolism, proliferation, signaling and development, which occur at different stages of GC development.
