Pharmacokinetics, tissue distribution and magnetic resonance's response characterstics of folic acid-O-carboxymethyl chitosan ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles in mice and rats / 药学学报

Folic acid-O-carboxymethyl chitosan ultrasmall superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (FA-OCMCS-USPIO-NPs) are a novel molecular targeting MR contrast agent. This paper reperts the pharmacokinetics and magnetic resonance response characteristics of FA-OCMCS-USPIO-NPs in normal rats and mice, and discussed its distributing regularity in animals, providing basis for tumor targeting imaging. O-phenanthroline method was used to determine iron content in rats' plasma and mice's organs following high and low doses of nanoparticles injected through tail vein, and the blood concentration-time curve was drawn, the calculated t1/2 of two groups were greater than 7 h. The results of tissue distribution showed that only a small part of nanoparticles were swallowed by the liver and spleen, while none in the heart, lung and kidney. At the same times, the phagocytosis of nanoparticles did not change with the dose. The results of MRI showed that renal excretion occurred 4 hours after injection, and signal to noise ratio (SNR) of liver and kidney returned to normal levels 24 hours after injection. There were no nanoparticles in the lungs. So a part of nanoparticles escaped from phagocytosis of liver and spleen, and it owned lower toxicity and longer half-life. indicated its use for tumor-targeting imaging. All of these indicated its use for tumor-targeting imaging.

Effects of cilostazol on LPS-stimulated adhesion and soluble adherent molecules release / 中国药理学通报

AIM To examine the effect of cilostazol, a no vel selective phosphodiesterase type 3 inhibitor, on adherence between neutrophils and human umbilical e ndothelial cells ( HUVECs ) and investigate its possible mechanisms. MET HODS Confluent HUVECs between 4～6 passages were used and stimulated by l ipopolysaccharide (LPS, 5 mg?L -1 ) with or without coincubation of cilosta zol (1～10 ?mol?L -1 ) for 24 h. Soluble cell adhesion molecules (sCAMs), including vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) and endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (sELAM-1, sE-selectin) in cell culture medium were measured by ELISA. RESULTS Cilostazol (1～10 ?mol?L -1 ) inhibited adherence between neutrophils and HUVECs in a dose- dependent manor. At the same time, cilostazol didn't affect sICAM-1 and sE-sel ectin release from LPS-stimulated HUVECs, but in contrast, it significantly inh ibited sVCAM-1 production under the same experiment condition, and this effect was canceled by H-89, an inhibitor of protein kinase A ( PKA ). CONCLUS ION Cilostazol significantly inhibits adherence between neutrophils and H UVECs, and downregulates sVCAM-1 release from LPS-activated HUVECs, and these effects on cytokine-challenged endothelial cells might be via a PKA-dependent pathway. The present result suggests that cilostazol partially eliminates some o f the adherent reactions of HUVECs to LPS, a deleterious cytokine, and it is rea sonable to consider that cilostazol might be a strategy for preventing atheroscl erosis and other cardiovascular diseases.
