Objective:To investigate the in vitro release behavior and stability of diphenyl diester suspension. Methods:The dis-solution of biphenyl diester dry suspension was detected by HPLC, and the effects of different stirring speed (50, 75, 100 r·min-1 ) and different dissolution media (pH 6. 8 phosphate buffer, 0. 05 mol·L-1 hydrochloric acid solution,water,pH 4. 5 acetate buffer) on dissolution were investigated. The influencing factors testing ( high temperature, high humidity and strong light exposure) , accelerated stability testing[the temperature of (37 ± 5) ℃ and the relative humidity of 76％ ± 5％] and long-term stability testing[(25 ± 3) ℃and the relative humidity of 60％ ± 5 ％] of biphenyl diester dry suspension were carried out. Results:The dissolution behavior of bi-phenyl diester suspension in pH 6. 8 phosphate buffer (50 r·min-1 ) was faster and smoother. The results of influencing factors testing showed that biphenyl diester dry suspension should not be stored under the conditions of high temperature and high humidity. After the samples were stored under the conditions of accelerated testing and long-term stability testing for 6 months, the indicators did not change significantly. Conclusion:The in vitro release of prepared biphenyl diester dry suspension meets the requirements with promis-ing stability.

Post-stroke depression (PSD) is a common complication of stroke. Its patogenesis is complex, mainly including the mechanisms of neurobiotogy and social psychology. So far, there has been no uniform conclusion both at home and abroad. Now it is considered that PSD is the results of comprehensive effect of various neurobiology and social psychology, and its onset is in accordance with the bio-psycho-social medical model.

Objective:To optimize the formula and preparation process of prepare sorafenib dry suspension and detect the content by HPLC. Methods:The influence of single factor including different fillers, suspending agents, adhesives and disintegrants on the sedimentation rate, redispersibility and drying shrinkage of sorafenib dry suspension was observed. Orthogonal design was used to opti-mize the formula and preparation process of the suspension, and HPLC was used to determine the content of sorafenib. The chromato-graphic column was Inertsil ODS-3 (250 mm × 4. 6 mm, 5μm), the mobile phase was 20 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate buffer-aceto-nitrile(28 ∶72), the detection wavelength was 266 nm, the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1, the column temperature was 40℃, and the sample size was 20 μl. Results:The optimal formula and preparation process were as follows:sucrose (48%) was used as the filler, xanthan gum (28%) and CMC-Na (12%) were the suspending agents, MCC (10%) was used as the disintegrant, and 6% PVP (in 50% ethanol) was the adhesive. The linear range of sorafenib was 1-100 μg·ml-1(r=0.999 8), and the recovery was 98.96%(RSD=0. 75%, n=9). Conclusion:The optimal formula and preparation process are repeatable. The HPLC method is simple and specific, which can be used to determine sorafenib.

Nuclear factor kappa B(NF-?B) is a pleiotropic nuclear transcriptive factor widely expressed in the nervous system.Recently,studies have demonstrated that NF-?B is also expressed in neural stem cells and may play an important role in their proliferation,migration and differentiation.This article reviews the recent advances in this new research field.

Objective:To study the mechanism of anti-proliferative effect of lupeol on highly metastatic human hepatocellular car-cinoma HCCLM3 cells. Methods:CCK-8 assay was performed to evaluate the effects of lupeol at different concentration on cell viability in 12-48 h. Caspase inhibitors were used to identify the subtypes of caspases activated during lupeol-induced cell death. The effects of lupeol on the mRNA expression of caspase family and Bcl-2 related genes were detected by real-time PCR. The effects of lupeol on HC-CLM3 cell phase distribution were investigated by flow cytometry. Results:Compared with the control group, lupeol could inhibit HC-CLM3 cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 of 93 μmol·L-1 in 24h. The number of HCCLM3 cells in the period of G2/M was increased by 1-fold when the lupeol concentration was within 60-100 μmol·L-1 . Lupeol could activate the path-way of caspase, and the mRNA expression of caspase-3 was elevated by 50%-150% when compared with that in the control group. Mo-reover, the mRNA expression of p53 and Bax were increased above 1-fold by lupeol at 100 μmol·L-1 , and the Bcl-2 and PARP ex-pression were significantly suppressed by lupeol at 60-100 μmol·L-1(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Conclusion:The results indicate that lupeol has anti-proliferative effect on the liver cancer cells, which is beneficial to the prevention and treatment of liver cancer.

Objective:To optimize the formula of artesunate dry suspension, and evaluate the quality. Methods:With sedimenta-tion volume ratio, redispersibility and loss on drying as the indices, single factor and orthogonal test were adopted to study the variety and amount of fillers, suspending agents, binders and disintegrating agents to optimize the formula. HPLC was used to determine the content of artesunate in the preparation. Different media and speed were used to investigate the dissolution behavior of artesunate dry suspension. The stability of the preparation was studied under the conditions of temperature (30 ± 2) ℃ and relative humidity (75 ± 5) % for four months. Results:The optimal formula of artesunate dry suspension was as follows: sucrose as the filler, xanthan gum (8%) and CMC-Na (12%) as the suspending agent, MCC (15%) as the disintegrant and 6% PVP K30 (in 50% ethanol solution) as the adhesive. Totally 4 batches of samples were prepared with the optimal formula, and their label contents were all above 95%, the sedimentation volume ratios were all higher than 0. 9 and the dissolution was more than 80% in 20 min. All the indices of samples met the requirements without significant change in 4 months. Conclusion:The preparation process of artesunate dry suspension is simple, reproducible and stable.

Objective To investigate the change in the expression of excitatory amino acid transporter 3 (EAAT3) in the spinal cord neurons in a rat model of chronic morphine tolerance. Methods Forty-five male SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 9 each) : group I sham operation (group S); group II normal saline (group NS); group Ⅰ morphine (group M); group Ⅳ ketamine (group K) and groupV M + K. In group II - V a catheter was placed in the subarachnoid space at L_(3-5) interspace. The animals were observed for 3 days. The animals with motor or sensory paralysis of the hindlimbs were excluded. NS 40 μl,morphine 20 μg, ketamine 30μg,morphine 20μg + ketamine 30μg were injected via intrathecal catheter twice a day for 7 consecutive days. 50% paw withdrawal threshold and latency (PWT, PWL) of the hindpaw to radiant heat were measured before (T_0, baseline) , on day 1, 3, 5, 7 of (T_(1-4)) and 1 day after (T_5 ) IT drug administration. The rats were sacrificed after last pain threshold measurement. The expression of EAAT3 protein in the spinal cord was determined by Western blotting and immuno-histochemistry. Results The sensitivity of the hindpaw to noxious heat stimulation was significantly decreased during (T_(1,2)) and increased after IT administration (T_(4,5)) in group M and was significantly decreased during and after FT administration (T_(1-5)) in group M + K as compared with the baseline values at T_0 and group S and was significant lower in group M + K than in group M. The expression of EAAT3 protein in the spinal cord was significantly decreased in group M and M + K as compared with group S and was significantly lower in group M than in group M + K. Conclusion The down-regulation of the expression of EAAT3 in the spinal dorsal horn neurons is involved in the development of chronic morphine tolerance and the expression of EAAT3 is down-regulated by morphine partly through the activation of NMDA receptor.
