OBJECTIVE:To screen the matrix formulation of Indomethacin hydrophilic gel patch. METHODS:Using appear-ance,adhesion,softness,moisture retention as indexes,mixed level of uniform design was used to screen matrix formulation of patch,verification test and in vitro transdermal test were used to evaluate the patch quality. RESULTS:Optimized matrix formula-tion was as follow as PVA of 7.686 g,PVP of 9.662 g,glyceryl of 19.992 g,gelatin of 9.999 g,CMC-Na of 13.997 g,carbomer of 3.000 g,HPMC of 1.500 g. The prepared patch had smooth surface,uniform matrix,good color,strong adhesion,good soft-ness(water loss rate of 11.9%). It can be slowly released for 48 h. The in vitro transdermal release fitted the Higuchi model(R2=0.9869). CONCLUSIONS:Indomethacin hydrophilic gel patch is successfully prepared,which can slowly release drug with over-all good quality.

AIM: To explore the effects of Angelicae sinensis preparation and sodium ferulate on inflammatory liver injury induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and their molecule mechanism. METHODS: ICR mice were divided into five groups: Angelicae sinensis group, sodium ferulate group, dexamethasone group, inflammation control group and normal group. The model of inflammatory injury in mice was set up by tail vein injection with the bacillus calmette-guerin (BCG) and LPS respectively prior and posterior to administration of those tested drugs. The tested drugs (the preparations of Angelica sinensis, sodium ferulate and dexamethasone) and normal saline were given respectively to the corresponding group. The pathological observation of the liver tissues in mice was made for the intensity of inflammatory liver injuries. The immunohistochemical detection and comparison were performed for the expression of ICAM-1 and E-selectin proteins in the liver tissues in those mice. RESULTS: The intensities of liver inflammatory injuries in mice from drug-treated groups were obviously lighter than that from the inflammation control group (P

AIM: To find out whether traditional Chinese medicine Angelicae Sinensis has direct suppressive effect on schistosome egg-induced granulomatous response. METHODS: The lung model of granuloma response was established by injecting living eggs of Schistosoma japonicum into the tail veins of eggs-sensitized mice then the preparation of Angelicae Sinensis were given intraperitoneally once a day for ten days. In vitro model of granulomatous reaction was set up by incubating dry schistosome eggs together with those splenocytes isolated from schistosome infected-mice or from the mice with pulmonary granuloma formation. Different doses of the preparation was, in the need of experiment, added to culture fluid. The sizes of granulomas formed surrounding single egg in lungs or the intensity of in vitro granulomatous responses were measured and observed. RESULTS: The average diameter of pulmonary granulomas in administered group was significantly smaller than that of the control ( P

Methods The spherical activated carbon with high strength has been successfully prepared by the carbonation and activation of polymeric resin. The apparent and theoretical adsorption capacities under the condition of static operation were investigated by Langmuir monolayer adsorption model. Elution by 75% alcohol was studied. Results The static adsorption capacities of the berberine hydrochloride and dioscin were 35.46 mg/g and 47.12 mg/g, and theoretical adsorption capacities were 96.16 mg/g and 102.04 mg/g, respectively. The apparent adsorption amount of rutin was 40.88% mg/g. The elution ratio were 83.71%, 91.45%, and 87.69%, respectively. Conclusion The spherical activated carbon adsorbent shows better comprehensive adsorption properties and can be used to purification.

Objective To study the expressions of programmed death 1 (PD-1) and programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in liver injury of acute liver failure (ALF) in rats and the role of PD-1/ PD-L1 in liver inflammatory injury. Methods SD rats were divided into two groups: 6 in normal group and 30 in ALF model group. The ALF models in rats were induced by D-galactosamine (D-Gal). The sera and hepatic tissue samples were collected at 12, 24, 48, 72 and 120 hours after D-Gal injection. Expressions of PD-1 mRNA and PD-L1 mRNA in hepatic tissue samples were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Comparison of measurement data between groups was done by t test. Correlation test was performed using Pearson linear correlation analysis. Results The levels of alanine animotransferase (ALT) and aspartate animotransferase (AST) at 12 h of D-Gal injection were (217. 3±33. 7) U/L and (397. 2± 101.3) U/L, respectively,which were both significantly higher than those in normal group [(30. 5 ±3. 1) U/L and (78. 6±4.2) U/L, respectively; t=-8. 921 and -6. 121, respectively; both P＜0.01] and peaked at 48 h.The expression of PD-1 mRNA in model group at 12 h (0. 385±0. 074) was significantly higher than that in normal group (0. 097±0.009) (t= -7. 725, P＜0.01) , and peaked at 48 h (0. 927±0. 132),then decreased obviously at 72 h. The expression of PD-L1 mRNA in the liver tissue of normal rats was very little, while that in model group was increased gradually over time, then peaked at 48 h (0. 593±0. 105; t =- 10. 076, P＜0. 01). The expressions of PD-1 and PD-L1 were positively correlated with ALT level (r=0. 807 and 0. 792, respectively; both P＜0. 01). Conclusion The expressions of PD-1/PD-L1 may play an important role in liver inflammatory injury in rat model of acute liver failure.

Objective Previous studies have shown that vitamin D deficiency is closely related to cardiac remodeling. How?ever, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Moreover, oxidative stress plays an important role on the pathologies of cardiac remodeling. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of VD deficiency on cardiac oxidative stress and the potential sig?nal pathway. Methods The male C57 mice ( 3 weeks old) were randomly divided into three groups: vitamin D deficiency ( VDD ) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks) , vitamin D deficiency ( VDA) group ( vitamin D sufficiency feed for 10 weeks) and VDD+calcitriol ( CAL) group ( vitamin D deficiency feed for 10 weeks and then vitamin D sufficiency feed and calcitriol treatment for 10 weeks) . Results There were significant differences between the VDD group and the VDA group in the left ventricular end?diastolic diameter and left ventricular mass index (3.82±0.125 mm vs 3.748±0.092 mm, P<0.05) (119.30±8.54 vs 97.60±3.65, P<0.05). The number of myocardial cells stained with 8?OHDG was higher in the VDD group compared with the VDA group ( 65. 4 ± 2. 3 vs 21. 8 ± 1. 6, P<0.05) whereas was lower after calcitriol supplement. Furthermore, the expression of thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) was sig?nificantly up?regulated and the ratio of p?ASK?1/ASK?1, cytochrome C release, and caspase3 activation were increased in the VDD group . Conclusion VDD can lead to cardiac oxidative injury and the up?regulation of TXNIP and the activation of ASK?1 related apoptotic signal cascade may be involved in this procedure.
