Aim To explore the inhibitory effect of li-gustrazine combined with paeonol on rat liver fibrosis induced by CCl4 and its mechanisms,so as to provide new treatment strategies for liver fibrosis in clinical. Methods Cleaning laboratory male SD rats were ran-domly divided into blank control group,model group (CCl4 ),ligustrazine group,paeonol group and combi-nation group (ligustrazine+paeonol).HE staining was used to observe the pathological change.Masson stai-ning and Sirius red staining was used to observe the collagen deposition.The levels of serum ALT,AST, ALP and hydroxyproline were detected by automatic bi-ochemistry analyzer.Western blot detected the markers of liver fibrosis.HSC-T6 cell was divided into model group,ligustrazine group,paeonol group and combina-tion group.The protein and gene expression of inflam-mation and apoptosis pathway was analyzed by Western blot and real time-PCR.Results Ligustrazine com-bined with paeonol could significantly improve liver tis-sue pathology changes caused by CCl4 .It could reduce serum ALT, AST, ALP and hydroxyproline levels. Moreover,it could also inhibit liver fibrosis marker protein expression,and thus reduce the deposition of collagen fibers.The effect was better than that in sin-gle intervention group.Combination group could inhib-it the inflammatory pathways related protein expression in HSC cells and promote the apoptosis of HSC cells. Conclusion Ligustrazine in combination with paeonol has significant anti-fibrosis effect,and the effect is bet-ter than both single intervention.The effect may be due to the interference with TNF-α/NF-κB pathway in the HSC cells,which promotes its apoptosis and inhib-its the generation of extracellular matrix.

Objective:To develop an HPLC method for the determination of nintedanib in rabbit plasma and study the pharmacoki-netics of nintedanib in rabbits. Methods:The separation was performed on an Agilent ZORBAX SB-C18 column. A mixture of acetoni-trile-0. 1% trifluoroacetic acid-water (35∶ 20∶ 45) was used as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1. The detection wavelength was set at 286 nm. Carbamazepine was used as the internal standard and nintedanib was extracted by ethyl acetate from plasma under basic condition. Totally 6 rabbits were given 20 mg·kg-1 nintedanib with intravenous administration. The blood samples were collected from the auricular vein at different time points after the administration. The concentration of nintedanib in plasma was detected by the HPLC method. The pharmacokinetics parameters were analyzed by DAS program. Results: An excellent linear rela-tionship was obtained within the range of 0. 05-10. 00 μg·ml-1(r=0. 999 8). The intra-day RSD was 5. 55%, 4. 53% and 2. 74%and inter-day RSD was 6. 15%, 5. 45% and 3. 15%, respectively for the three concentrations(0. 10, 2. 50 and 7. 50μg·ml-1), and the relative recovery was (98. 50 ± 5. 47)%, (100. 25 ± 4. 54)% and (99. 94 ± 2. 74)%, respectively. The main pharmacokinetics parameters of nintedanib were as follows: Cmaxwas (3.01 ±0.35) μg·ml-1, t1/2 was (4.38 ±1.53) h and AUC0-t was (11.67 ± 1. 71) μg·h·ml-1 . Conclusion:The method is simple, rapid and accurate, and can be used to determine the nintedanib concentra-tion in rabbit plasma and study its pharmacokinetics. Nintedanib is fitted the first-order elimination kinetics in rabbits.

AIM: To investigate killing effect of herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase/ganciclovior system(HSV-TK/GCV) on osteosarcoma cell and its mechanisms.METHODS: Recombinant retroviral vector (DORHyTK) containing hygromycin phosphotransferase-thymidine kinase fusion gene(HyTK) was constructed and introduced into human osteosarcoma cell line OS732 with DOTAP. DNA and total RNA extracted from HyTK expressing cells (OS732TK) were tested by PCR and RNA dot blot analysis. A chemosensitivity of OS732TK cells to GCV and “bystander effect” were measured by means of MTT colorimetric assay. Hoeschst 332258 staining and flow cytometric analysis were performed for mechanism of HSV-TK/GCV system gene therapy. RESULTS: DORHyTK was constructed successfully; the HyTK gene existed and expressed in OS732TK cells; All OS732TK cells were killed after 5 days of exposure to 5 mg/L GCV. The “bystander effect” was observed in both a high population and a low population, but the former was stronger than the latter. Hoeschst 332258 staining revealed the characteristic hallmarks of apoptosis, however necrosis also existed. Flow cytometric analysis of DNA content showed a G0-G1 phase blockade. CONCLUSION: HSV-TK/GCV gene therapy system showed its strong killing effects on osteosarcoma cells OS732; The phenomenon of “bystander effect” was also very apparent. GCV exposure induced both necrotic and apoptotic death in HSV-TK expressing cells, and perturbed the cell cycle. HSV-TK/GCV gene therapy system may provide a new therapeutic approach for treatment of osteosarcoma.
