ABSTRACT
@#This study aimed to investigate the improvement of tolance and pharmacodynamics of nano-micelle irinotecan formulation compared with irinotecan hydrochloride injection(Campto). The toxic effects of the two formulations on colorectal cancer cells COLO205, HT-29, HCT-8 and SW480 were tested in vitro. COLO205 tumor-bearing mouse model was constructed. The two preparations were given via tail vein injection to investigate the maximum tolerance dose(MTD)of tumor-bearing mice to the two preparations, and then to explore the improvement of anti-tumor efficacy of nano-micelle irinotecan formulation near the MTD. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the inhibitory effect of the two formulations on the four colorectal cancer cells in vitro. The MTD of nano-micelle irinotecan formulation and Campto was 432. 0 and 276. 5 mg/m2 respectively. Both of the two formulations showed significant anti-tumor effect in vivo, and the relative tumor proliferation rate and tumor wet weight inhibition rate of nano-micelle irinotecan formulation at high dose(345. 6 mg/m2)were significantly better than those of Campto at two doses(177. 0 and 221. 2 mg/m2)(P< 0. 05).
ABSTRACT
OBJECTlVE To study the Iong term toxicity of vinoreIbine tartrate(NVB)on rat immune and hematopoietic systems pathoIogicaIIy. METHODS SD Rats were randomIy divided into 4 groups:normaI controI group and NVB 5.0,10.0,and 20.0 mg·m-2 groups,each group containing 6 maIe and femaIe rats. The rats in NBV groups were administered different concentrations of NVB by intravenous drip on the 1st and 8th days,21 da cycIe,for 4 cycIes. On the 14th day after the Iast administration, white bIood ceIIs(WBC),neutrophiI(Neut),Iymphocytes(Lym),red bIood ceIIs(RBC)and reticuIo-cyte‰(RET‰)were detected by ADVIA2120 hematoIogy anaIyzer. Thymus,sternum marrow,spIeen and mesenteric Iymph nodes were observed by histopathoIogicaI examination. The thymus and spIeen were preciseIy weighed to obtain the reIative organ coefficients. Bone marrow smears were made for counting and cIassification. RESULTS Compared with normaI controI group,WBC,Neut,Lym,RBC and RET% of peripheraI bIood of NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups were decreased(P﹤0.05,P﹤0.01). The Neut vaIue of maIe rats was(2.35±0.56)×109·L-1 in normaI controI group,but was reduced to (1.66±0.44),(0.67±0.22)and(0.20±0.02)×109·L-1(P﹤0.05,P﹤0.01)in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. The Neut vaIue of femaIe rats was(1.26± 0.27)× 109 L-1 in normaI controI group,but was reduced to(1.14±0.56),(0.47±0.13)and(0.21±0.08)×109 L-1(P﹤0.05,P﹤0.01)in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. The resuIts of counting and cIassification of bone marrow smears showed that the myeIoid ceII ratio decreased(P﹤0.05,P﹤0.01). The myeIoid ceII ratio of maIe rats was(42.7±6.1)% in normaI controI group,but was reduced to(28.8±5.3)%,(22.0±3.2)% and(18.9±3.9)% in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. The myeIoid ceII ratio of femaIe rats in normaI controI group was(35.4±3.0)%, but was reduced to(31.2±4.7)%,(22.9±6.7)% and(20.8±4.2)% in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. The thymus coefficient was reduced(P﹤0.05,P﹤0.01). The thymus coefficient of maIe rats in normaI controI group was 0.36±0.04,but was reduced to 0.31±0.06,0.18±0.03 and 0.08±0.01 in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. The thymus coefficient of femaIe rats in normaI controI group was 0.29±0.06,but was reduced to 0.25±0.06,0.19±0.06 and 0.07±0.01 in NVB 5,10 and 20 mg·m-2 groups. Histopatho-IogicaI examination showed that thymus was atrophiedand bone marrow was suppressed. SpIeen com-pensatory extrameduIIary hematopoietic ceIIs were increased in NVB 5.0,10.0 and 20.0 mg·m-2 groups (maIe and femaIe)to different degrees,but the mesenteric Iymph nodes of NVB groups showed no sig-nificant pathoIogicaI changes. CONCLUSlON NVB has immune and hematopoietic toxicity on SD rats, as is showed by thymic atrophy and bone marrow suppression.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the effects of flexible ureteroscopic Holmium laser lithotripsy on renal function in the treatmen of renal calculi. Methods From October 2010 to March 2012,41 cases of solitary renal calculi (24 males and 17 females) were treated with flexible ureteroscopic Holmium laser lithotripsy ( FURL).Patient's mean age was 51.9 ± 15.9 years ( range from 31 to 88 years).Locations of renal calculi detected by image study were 22 cases in middle and upper calyx,9 cases in lower calyx,10 case in renal pelvis.The mean size of calculi was 16.9 ±6.0 mm (range from 10 to 28 mm).Blood samples (2 h pre-operatively,and then 2 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h post-operatively) were collected and serum NGAL,serum Cys-C were tested Results The measured levels of pre-operative NGAL and Cys-C were 3.5 ± 0.6μg/L,501.7±121.3 μg/L,and levels of post-operative NGAL at 2 h,12 h,24 h,48 h and 72 h were 4.2±0.8 μg/L,5.0±1.0 μg/L,4.9±1.4 μg/L,4.3± 1.1 μg/L and 3.8 ±0.1 μg/L,while the according levels of Cys-C were ( 516.4 ± 126.2 ) μg/L,( 723.8 ± 134.8 ) μg/L,( 770.4 ± 162.8 ) μg/L,(671.7 ± 138.3 ) μg/L and 574.0 ± 116.7 μg/L.Serum NGAL began to increase 2 hours after operation (P ＜0.05,and reached the peak in 12 hours,it began to decline 12 hours after surgery,but it was still higher at 72 hours than pre-operative level (P ＜ 0.05.Serum Cys-C showed no obvious ascent 2 hours after operation in FURL group ( P ＞ 0.05 ),but increased obviously 12 hours after operation and lowered down after the peak that occurred 24 hours after surgery.Serum Cys-C still remain above the baseline 72 hours after operation (P ＜0.05). Conclusions Flexible ureteroscope lithotripsy can cause reversible damage to renal function after surgery.
