ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate clinical efficacy of Sofren injection combined with Vinpocetine injection in the treatment of acute massive cerebral infarction,and its effects on hemorheological indexes and serum NOS.METHODS:A total of 60 patients with acute massive cerebral infarction in our hospital during Jan.2014-Jun.2016 were selected as research objects and divided into trial group and control group according to random number table,with 30 cases in each group.Control group was given Citicoline injection 0.5 g,ivgtt,qd.Trial group was additionally given Vinpocetine injection 20 mg added into 0.9％ Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,qd;1 h later washing tube,they were given Sofren injection 10 mL added into 0.9％ Sodium chloride injection 250 mL,ivgtt,for consecutive 14 d.Clinical efficacies and safety of 2 groups were observed,and hemorheological indexes and NOS levels were observed before and after treatment.RESULTS:The total response rate (83.33％)of trial group was significantly higher than that (50.00％) of control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in hemorheological indexes or serum NOS levels between 2 groups (P＞0.05).After treatment,hemorheological indexes of 2 groups were decreased significantly,and the trial group was significantly lower than the control group.The level of serum NOS in 2 groups were increased significantly,and the trial group was significantly higher than the control group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05).No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups.CONCLUSIONS:Sofren injection combined with Vinpocetine injection show significant therapeutic efficacy for acute massive cerebral infarction,can reduce blood viscosity and increase blood perfusion with good safety.
ABSTRACT
Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of hospital-acquired infection. Because the bacteria are very easy to become resistant to antibiotics, vaccination is a main method against S. aureus infection. Clumping factor B (ClfB) is an adhesion molecule essential for S. aureus to colonize in the host mucosa and is regarded as an important target antigen. In this study, we successfully used Escherichia coli to express a segment encoding the N1-N3 regions of ClfB protein (Truncated-ClfB) cloned from S. aureus. The protein was purified by affinity and ion exchange chromatographies and gel filtration. Rabbits were immunized three times with purified Truncated-ClfB. After that, blood was collected to prepare serum which were then used for measurement of antibody level. Phagocytosis of S. aureus opsonized by the serum was determined by a flow cytometry. Results show that the serum IgG titer reached 1:640 000. Phagocytosed S. aureus by polymorphonuclear leukocytes were significantly more when the bacteria were opsonized by the serum from Truncated-ClfB immunized rabbits than those from no immunized group (P < 0.01). Therefore, the results indicated that Truncated-ClfB could be a promising vaccine candidate against S. aureus infection.
