Poking reduction cannulated screw for the treatment of SandersⅡ calcaneal fracture / 中国骨伤

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate clinical effect of poking reduction cannulated screw based on Pingle orthopedic muscle-bone interoperability balance theory in treating Sanders Ⅱ calcaneal fracture.@*METHODS@#From October 2014 to December 2017, 28 patients with Sanders Ⅱ calcaneal fracture were treated with poking reduction cannulated screw guided by Pingle orthopedic muscle-bone interoperability balance theory, including 20 males and 8 females, aged from 24 to 55 years old with an average of (37.2±3.9) years old. Calcaneal width, Bhler angle, and Gissane angle were measured before and after operation, and Maryland Score before and 6 months after operation were compared.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up from 12 to 16 months with an average of (13.7±1.3) months. All fractures healed normally, and healing time ranged from 9 to 12 weeks with an average of (10.2±1.3) weeks. No postoperative wound infection, cortical necrosis, or osteomyelitis occurred. The width of the calcaneus decreased from (34.15±2.58) mm before surgery to (30.49±2.37) mm after surgery, Bhler angle increased from (14.16±3.27)° before operation to (31.95±3.07)°after operation, Gissane angle decreased from (128.45±9.04)° before operation to (120.83±8.15)° after operation. Maryland Score was 15.68±4.73 before operation, and was improved to 88.32±2.65 at 6 months after operation;19 patients got excellent result, 6 good, 2 fair and 1 poor.@*CONCLUSION@#Poking reduction cannulated screw based on Pingle orthopedic muscle-bone interoperability balance theory in treating Sanders Ⅱ calcaneal fracture has certain clinical effects, high acceptation of patient, and without special demand for soft tissue around fracture. But it should avoid choosing severe comminuted Sanders Ⅲand Ⅳcalcaneal fracture.

Effects of Jiawei Foshou San capsule on rat hepatic cytochrome P450 enzymes invitro and invivo / 药学学报

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of Jiawei Foshou San capsule (JWFSSC) on CYP1A2, CYP2C6, CYP2D2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A1/2 enzyme activities in rat liver microsomes in vitro and in vivo, and to provide pharmacokinetic data for its combined use with other medicines. After incubating liver microsomes with a cocktail of probe drugs, the metabolites were quantitated with LC-MS/MS to assess the CYP enzyme activity. The hepatic pathological changes were evaluated by histology after hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. With the dose range up to 3 200 mg·L-1, the IC50 of JWFSSC for CYP2D2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A1/2 in vitro was 229.3 mg·L-1, 361.9 mg·L-1 and 274.6 mg·L-1 respectively. Compared with the vehicle control group, the enzyme activities of CYP1A2, CYP2C6 and CYP3A1/2 showed a significant increase in animals given JWFSSC 180 mg·kg-1·d-1 (P<0.01). Based on histology, several pathological changes were observed in JWFSSC groups: there was less inflammatory infiltration compared to the tetrahydropalmatine (THP) group. These results of inhibition in vitro and induction in vivo suggest a strengthened efficacy and a prolonged effective time of drugs metabolized by CYP2D2 and CYP2E1 enzymes when combined with JWFSSC in use. The dosage of parent drugs should be appropriately reduced when used in combination with JWFSSC. However, if a drug is metabolized by CYP1A2 and CYP2C6 when used in combination with JWFSSC, the effect of the drug is likely reduced and the dosage should be increased appropriately. In addition, the combination of ferulic acid (FA), ligustrazine (LZ) and THP can significantly reduce the toxicity of THP in rat livers. In this study, the program of animal testing had been approved by Committee on the management and usage of experimental animal in the College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Southwest University.

In vitro inhibitory effects of Jiawei Foshou San capsule on activity of cytochrome P450 enzymes in rat and human liver microsomes / 药学学报

This study was designed to investigate the inhibitory effects of Jiawei Foshou San (JWFSS) capsule in vitro on five major human liver microsomes CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, as well as on rat liver microsomes CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D2, CYP2E1, CYP3A1/2. The test groups included a negative control group, an inhibitor positive control group, an ferulic acid (FA) group, a ligustrazine (LZ) group, a tetrahydropalmatine (THP) group, and an JWFSS capsule group. After incubating the liver microsomes with a cocktail of probe drugs, the metabolites were quantitated with LC-MS/MS, and IC 50 values were calculated to assess the inhibitory effect of JWFSS capsule and its components on five rat/human CYP450 enzymes. All of the IC50 values for the FA and the LZ for the five CYPs could not be determined. The IC50 of the THP for rat CYP3A1/2 and for human CYP2D6 was 7.46 and 9.24 μmol·L-1, respectively. The IC50 of the JWFSS capsule for rat CYP2D2, CYP2E1 and CYP3A1/2 was 241.3, 369.8 and 293.0 mg ·L-1, for human CYP2D6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A4 was 123.9, 189.9 and 171.3 mg·L-1 respectively. The results indicated there were little probability that FA and LZ inhibited the activity of rat and human liver five CYPs; THP was identified as moderate-intensity inhibitor of rat liver CYP3A1/2 and human liver CYP2D6; JWFSS capsule might have a inhibitory effect on the activity of rat and human liver CYP2D, CYP2E1 and CYP3A in vitro, showing that there was a strengthened efficacy and a prolonged effective time for drugs metabolized by CYP2D, CYP2E1, CYP3A and combined with JWFSS capsule.

Compared with Ziziphi Spinosae Semen group, prescription group showed slower metabolism of spinosin and ferulic

Effect of Jiawei Foshou San and its compatibility on hepatic P450 enzyme activity and hepatocyte morphology in rats / 中国中药杂志

To investigate the effect of Jiawei Foshou San and its various combined administration on hepatic P450 enzyme activity and hepatocyte morphology in rats. Rats were orally administered with drugs for four weeks and then sacrificed to prepare liver microsomes. The liver microsomes were incubated with the cocktail method; The metabolites were determined with the rapid liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to investigate the hepatocyte P450 enzyme activity. In addition, the hepatic pathological changes were observed by using the hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Compared with the control group, the enzyme activity of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4 in the Jiawei Foshou san group showed a significant rise (P < 0.05); the enzyme activity of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2D6, CYP2E1 and CYP3A4 in the ferulic acid + ligustrazine group and the ligustrazine + tetrahydropalmatine group showed a significant rise (P < 0.05) ; the enzyme activity of CYP1A2, CYP2D6 and CYP2E1 in the ligustrazine group showed a significant rise (P < 0.05); the enzyme activity of CYP3A4 in the ferulic acid group showed a significant reduction (P < 0.05). After the administration with various drugs, the hepatocyte morphologies in the ferulic acid group and the ligustrazine group were normal. The pathological changes were observed in the tetrahydropalmatine group, such as unclear boundary of hepatic lobules, disordered hepatic cell arrangement, blurred edge, anisokaryosis and infiltration of inflammatory cells. The ferulic acid + tetrahydropalmatine group, the ligustrazine + tetrahydropalmatine group and the Jiawei Foshou San group also showed inflammatory infiltration, but with less pathological changes, particularly the Jiawei Foshou San group. The study result shows that Jiawei Foshou San can induce the enzyme activity of CYP1A2 and CYP3A4, and ligustrazine may be the effective substance for inducing CYP1A2. Its combination with ferulic acid and ligustrazine can significantly reduce the liver toxicity of tetrahydropalmatine.
