Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease. At present, levodopa and other drugs are mainly used for dopamine supplementation therapy. However, the absorption of levodopa in the gastrointestinal tract is unstable and its half-life is short, and long-term use of levodopa will lead to the end-of-dose deterioration, dyskinesia, the "ON-OFF" phenomenon and other symptoms. Therefore, new preparations need to be developed to improve drug efficacy, reduce side effects or improve compliance of patients. Based on the above clinical needs, this review briefly introduced the preparation modification strategies for the treatment of PD through case analysis, in order to provide references for the research and development of related preparations.

Objective To investigate the impact and mechanism of efaproxiral (RSR13),a hemoglobin allosteric agent,on lung injury in rats caused by explosion-induced shock waves in plateau areas. Methods Eighty-two healthy male SD rats (8-week-old,transferred from an altitude of 2 880 m to 4700 m within 6 h)were randomly divided into blast injury group and RSR13+blast injury group (intraperitoneal injection of 150 mg/kg RSR132 h before explosion).Sixty rats were positioned at 5 m from the explosion source and divided into 5-m blast injury group (n=30)and 5-m RSR13+blast injury group (n=30). Additionally,16 rats were positioned at 6 m from the explosion source and then assigned into 6-m blast injury group (n=8)and 6-m RSR13+blast injury group (n=8).The left 6 rats served as control (n=6).Survival outcomes of each rat group positioned 5 m from the explosion source were observed over a 24-hour period.HE staining was used to evaluate the pathological score of the surviving rats positioned at 6 m from the explosion source in 24 h after explosion,along with arterial blood gas analysis.The contents of glutathione (GSH),malondialdehyde (MDA ) and superoxide dismutase (SOD ) in the lung tissues were determined by colorimetry.Western blotting was conducted to measure the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 and occludin in the lung tissue.Results RSR13 pretreatment increased the survival rate immediately after explosion (93.3% vs 46.7%,P<0.01 )and at 1 h after explosion (86.7% vs 46.7%,P<0.01 )in plateau areas of 5 m from the explosion source.At high altitude,RSR13 pretreatment reduced the pathological score of lung injury in rats 6 m away from the explosion source (8.27±0.93 vs 13.70±0.78,P<0.01 ),but had no significant effect on the results of arterial blood gas analysis in rats with lung blast injury (P>0.05 ).In addition,RSR13 pretreatment also increased GSH content (40.27±12.47 vs 22.62±10.88 μg/g,P<0.05),but showed no obvious effect on MDA content and SOD activity (P>0.05 ),decreased the protein level of cleaved caspase-3 (P<0.01 )and increased that of occludin (P<0.05 )in the lung tissues.Conclusion RSR13 exerts significant protective effect on lung injury in rats caused by explosion-induced shock waves in high-altitude environment,which may be related to its increasing antioxidant capacity,reducing cell apoptosis and decreasing barrier permeability of lung ventilation.

Objective:To analyze the expression levels and clinical significance of interferon (IFN)-α/β in the renal cortex and serum of children with lupus nephritis (LN).Methods:A total of 32 children with LN diagnosed in the pediatric nephrology department of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from December 2017 to September 2020 were selected as the study subjects (LN group). The normal kidney control group consisted of 3 normal kidney transplant volunteers who underwent biopsy of kidney tissue (normal kidney control group), while 14 healthy children who underwent physical examination were collected as the normal control group. According to the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI), LN patients were divided into mild activity group ( n=8), moderate activity group ( n=9), and severe activity group ( n=15). According to the International Society of Nephrology/Society of Nephrology (ISN/RPS) 2003 LN classification criteria, pathological classification was performed (3 cases in the mild pathological damage group, 8 cases in the moderate pathological damage group, and 11 cases in the severe pathological damage group); Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression and distribution of IFN-α/β in glomeruli and renal interstitium; Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the concentration of IFN-α/β in serum samples and analyze its correlation with the pathological classification and disease activity of LN patients. Results:The serum and renal cortex IFN-α/β levels in the LN group were higher than those in the normal control group and normal kidney control group, respectively (all P<0.05). The average level of serum IFN-α/β in the heavy activity group was higher than that in the light and moderate activity groups (all P<0.05). The serum and renal cortex IFN-α/β levels in the severe pathological damage group were significantly higher than those in the mild and moderate pathological damage groups (all P<0.05). Conclusions:IFN-α/β in the renal cortex is closely related to renal injury in LN; Serum IFN-α/β can assist in evaluating the disease activity level of LN to a certain extent.

Objective:To investigate the laboratory detection methods for immune hemolytic transfusion reactions caused by anti-tigecycline antibody and the clinical diagnosis and treatment of one patient.Methods:The correlation between hemolysis-related laboratory indexes of the patient and the duration of medication was analyzed. Blood samples of the patient were tested using direct anti-human globulin test, free antibody test, and release test. Erythrocyte sensitization method and immune complexome analysis were used to detect the antibody against tigecycline in the serum of the patient. The properties and the titers of anti-tigecycline antibody were analyzed.Results:Anti-tigecycline antibody was found in the patient through the erythrocyte sensitization method and the immune complexome analysis, and the result of the direct anti-human globulin test was positive. The clinical symptoms and physical signs of the patient improved rapidly after withdrawal of tigecycline and blood transfusion. The patient was discharged after 14-day treatment with immunoglobulin and hormone.Conclusions:Tigecycline can cause hemolytic transfusion reactions. Serological tests are essential for the diagnosis of drug-induced hemolytic anemia. Withdrawal of medications and symptomatic treatment should be conduceted immediately when patients develop drug-related hemolytic anemia.
