With the establishment of HPLC and LC-MS methods to determine the related substances and the content of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) in ipratropium bromide aerosol products, several packing material-related impurities were identified, including antioxygen BHT and antioxygen 2246. Results showed that these leachable additives from the packing materials may present at a relative high level in the drug solution, and the low content of API in the drug products is usually due to the adsorption of the packing material as well as the leaking of contents. The current available assay methods for the control of ipratropium bromide aerosol products are often lack of specificity and unable to assure the drug quality effectively. To meet the increasing attention on the regulations of drug packing materials, our research would be a pilot study, indicating that the inappropriate packing materials could cause the migration and adsorption of the active ingredients, and the importance to have compatibility studies between packing materials and drugs.

Objective To compare three rat models of acute stress response and to explore an ideal experimental rat model for research of acute stress response .Methods A total of 40 clean grade male SD rats were randomly ( by random number ) divided into 4 groups ( n=10 each ):Normal group ( group I ) , caudal trunk transection group ( group II), burn group (group III), and amputation group (group IV).The group I received no special treatment , the group II received inferior caudal trunk transection at the level between sacral spinal nerve 3 and 4 (S3, S4), the group III was inflicted with 30%total body surface area ( TBSA) grade 3 burn on the back , and the group IV had an amputation of the left lower limb as severe traumatic stress .Rats in each group were killed at 30 minutes after treatment and blood samples were collected for measuring serum adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone (CORT) levels by ELISA. The c-fos protein expression in hypothalamic tissue was examined by immunohistochemistry .Results Compared with the group I, serum ACTH and CORT levels , and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein in the group II , III, IV were significantly increased ( P <0.05 ) .Compared with the group III , serum ACTH and CORT levels , and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein were significantly higher in the group II and IV ( P <0.05 ) , while there was no significant difference between the group II and IV (P>0.05).Conclusions The preparation of acute stress response model induced by inferior caudal trunk transection has simple operation steps and produces a traumatic injury to a similar degree , and quite well reflects the acute stress response in humans caused by sudden accident .Therefore it is a quite good method to establish acute stress response and deserves further investigation .

The expression vector of SmIg scFv fragment was constructed in patient with B cell chronic lymphocyte leukemia (B-CLL) and expressed in E. coli to obtain scFv fragment, and the effect of the protein on the proliferation of stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was investigated in vitro. Two pairs of primers were designed, and variable region genes of light chain and heavy chain were amplified by PCR respectively from the pGEM-T vectors previously constructed in our laboratory which containing light chain gene or Fd fragment of heavy chain gene. The PCR product was digested, purified and inserted into pHEN2 vector to construct the soluble expression vector pHEN2-scFv. After the induction by IPTG, the scFv protein was identified by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis and purified by Ni-NTA-Chromatography. MTT was used to determine the effect of purified protein on the proliferation of stimulated PBMC in vitro. Plasmid PCR and restriction enzyme digestion of pHEN2-scFv revealed the pHEN2-scFv vector was constructed successfully. Id-scFv protein was expressed in positive clone after induced by IPTG. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the relative molecular weight of fusion protein was about 30 kD (1 kD= 0.9921 ku), which was consistent with the theoretically predicted value. Proliferation of PBMC could be induced by purified Id-scFv. It was suggested that the expression vector of SmIg scFv fragment was constructed successfully, and scFv protein was expressed and secreted from E. coli, which could induce proliferation of PBMC. This may lay an experimental foundation for further research of Id-HSP complex vaccine for B-CLL.

Objective To explore the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) at tusanli (ST36) on regulation of stress response under different doses of etomidate anesthesia in rats.Methods Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 280-310 g, were randomly divided into control group (group C), model group (group M), etomidate 60 mg/kg group (group E1), etomidate 30 mg/kg group (group E2), etomidate 60 mg/kg combined with EA group (group EA1) and etomidate 30 mg/kg combined with EA group (group EA2), n=10 in each group.All groups received inferior caudal trunk transection at the level between sacral spinal nerve 3 and 4 (S3, S4) to prepare acute stress response model except group C.Group M received no others treatment.The rats in group E1, group EA1, group E2 and group EA2 were intraperitoneally injected with 60, 60, 30 and 30 mg/kg etomidate, respectively.Group EA1 and group EA2 received EA ST36.The points were stimulated at a frequency of 2/100 Hz with 1 mA output and a dilatational wave, which lasted for 30 min.ACTH and Cor levels were measured by ELISA.The c-fos protein expression in hypothalamic tissue was examined by Western blot.Results Compared with group C, ACTH and Cor levels, and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein in group M were significantly increased (P<0.05).Compared with group M, serum ACTH and Cor levels, and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein in groups E1, E2, EA1 and EA2 were significantly decreased (P<0.05).Compared with group E1, serum ACTH and Cor levels, and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein were significantly higher in groups E2 and EA1 (P<0.05).Compared with group E2, serum ACTH level and hypothalamic expression of c-fos protein were significantly lower in group EA2 (P<0.05).Conclusion EA at ST36 regulating stress response under etomidate anesthesia in rats is effective and two-way, and the mechanism may be due to the release of neurotransmitters induced c-fos protein in hypothalamus.

Objective To explore the change of sexual life quality and its influencing factors of premenopausal breast cancer patients.Methods 94 premenopausal breast cancer patients were included. Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire short-form (CSFQ-14) was used and part of its items was changed. Their sexual life was evaluated before and after treatment by using depth interview and anonymous methods. Results 94 cases received face-to-face communication and study. 88 (93.6%) questionnaires were received, in which 81 (92.1%) questionnaires were effective. Their sexual life quality and sexual satisfaction significantly decreased and there was significant difference in the CSFQ-14 score (P<0.001) before and after treatment. The ratio of bad, worse, and worst sexual life were 39.5%, 29.6%, and 14.8% respectively after treatment. 65.4% of the patients had no sexual activity. The reasons included medical related factors, fear of cancer metastasis and recurrence, physical discomfort, poorer body image, partner sexual attitudes changed, life stress, common psychological problems, traditional ideas and so on. Conclusion Sexual dysfunction was obvious and sexual life quality significantly decreased in premenopausal breast cancer patients after treatment. Patients' physical and mental damage, the change of body image and spouse's attitude are significant influencing factors. It is necessary to give sexual rehabilitation guidance to patients and their spouses.
