The pharmaceutical care by clinical pharmacists for a foot injury patient with postoperative MRSA infection / 药学实践杂志

Objective To explore the clinical pharmacist’s role in drug therapy and monitoring for the patient with postoperative MRSA infection. Methods Clinical pharmacists participated in planning anti-infective treatment, antimicrobial medication selection, identification of high-risk factors for MRSA infection, evaluation of vancomycin efficacy, dosage adjustment using TDM technology, monitoring and management of vancomycin adverse reactions. Results With the pharmaceutical care provided by clinical pharmacists, the patient received effective treatment with minimal vancomycin-related adverse reactions. Conclusion Clinical pharmacists played an important role in accelerating patient recovery by rational and safe medication use.

Expressions of HSP110 family members in the testes and epididymis of mice at different stages of development and their regulation by hormones / 南方医科大学学报

OBJECTIVE@#To study the expressions of the members of HSP110 family in the testis and epididymis of mice at different stages of development and whether they are regulated by hormones.@*METHODS@#The testicular and epididymis tissues of mice at different ages (14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 70, and 90 days after birth, 3 mice at each age) were collected for RT-PCR detection of the expression levels of HSP110 family members. Forty-eight mice were randomized into 3 groups for sham operation, castration, or castration with testosterone injections every other day (starting at 7 days after castration), and at 1, 3, 5, and 7 days after first testosterone injection, the expressions of HSP110 family in the epididymis were detected using RT-PCR.@*RESULTS@#The mRNA expression levels of HSP110 family members underwent obvious variations with the development of the mice: , and expressions in the testicles of the mice first increased and then decreased, and gradually became stable; they also exhibited similar temporal patterns of changes in the epididymis. In the castrated mice, the mRNA expressions of and in the epididymis decreased significantly with the reduction of serum hormone levels ( < 0.05), and became normal after the supplementation of exogenous hormone.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The expression levels of HSP110 family are affected by developmental regulation, and the expressions of and are under the regulation by hormones.

Expression of heat shock protein 90β and its regulation in the reproductive system of male mice / 南方医科大学学报

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the expression and regulation of heat shock protein 90β (HSP90β) in the testis, epididymis and sperms of mice.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The localization and expression of HSP90β mRNA and protein were investigated in the testis, epididymis and sperms of mice, and the regulation of HSP90β in the male reproductive system was explored.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>HSP90β was expressed at a higher level in the epididymis than in the testis. In the sperms of the mice, HSP90β was localized in the acrosome area. The expression of HSP90β in mouse epididymis decreased after castration and recovered the normal level after testosterone treatment. HSP90β expression in the testis and epididymis also underwent changes during the postnatal development of the mice.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>HSP90β may play an important role in spermiogenesis and fertilization, and its expression pattern in the epididymis after castration and during the postnatal development suggests its regulation by hormones and development.</p>
