ABSTRACT
Objective To study the characteristics and regularities of Chinese drugs preparations ADR in order to improve the rational drug use.Methods A total of 112 cases of TCM ADR reports collected in 2009～2011 which have been presented to the Guangzhou ADR Monitoring Center.Results Of the 112 cases,26 kinds of drugs were involved,quinquagenarian were the main crowd,intravenous infusion was the main route of administration,the main types of TCM ADR were lesions of skin and accessories.Conclusion Great importance should be attached to TCM ADR monitoring to promote rational drug use in the clinic.
ABSTRACT
AIM: To determine whether the high mobility group protein I (HMGI) is able to bind to the upstream sequence of platelet-derived growth factor B-chain gene and to characterize the HMGI-binding AT-rich regions. METHODS: Recombinant human HMGI (rhHMGI) protein was prepared and electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA) was used. RESULTS: The binding of rhHMGI to PDGF-B (-1 758 / +43 bp) was observed in vitro. Two major HMGI-binding fragments -1 392 / -1 180 bp and -188 / +43 bp were identified, which contained the same AT-rich sequence TTTATAAA (-1 333 / -1 326 bp, -1 314 / -1 307 bp and -30 / -23 bp). An oligonucleotide bound to the TTTATAAA and the GAGACC, the core sequence of the shear stress response element of the PDGF-B, could also bind to the HMGI. Furthermore, HMGI facilitated the binding of NF-?B to the GAGACC in the oligonucleotide. CONCLUSION: The HMGI could bind to the upstream sequence of the PDGF-B gene via the AT-rich sequence TTTATAAA, which may play a role in the transcriptional regulation of the PDGF-B gene.
