ABSTRACT

Nivolumab is an anti-programmed cell death (anti-PD-1) monoclonal antibody, which is a new drug for tumor immunotherapy. A 73-year-old female patient with colorectal cancer 3 years after surgery was treated in the Endocrinology Department of Third Xiangya Hospital, Central South University, who developed severe hypothyroidism resulting from treatment with nivolumab. After 4 months treatment of nivolumab, this patient presented with symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, jaundice and palpebral edema, with decreased levels of FT3 and FT4 and elevated levels of TSH. Subsequently, nivolumab treatment was terminated. This patient's symptoms were relieved and thyroid function returned to normal after thyroxine replacement therapy. The clinical diagnosis was considered to be nivolumab-induced autoimmune thyroid damage, which was an immune-related adverse reaction in the treatment.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To study the mechanism of couplet medicine of Tripterygium hypoglaucum-Spatholobus suberectus in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: The RA targets were retrieved and obtained by therapeutic target database (TTD), DrugBank and DisGeNET databases, and the protein protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to screen its key targets. Using oral bioavailability(OB)≥30%, drug like(DL)≥0.18 and drug half-life (HL) ≥4 h as index, active components were obtained from couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus by using TCM systematic pharmacological analysis platform (TCMSP) and TCM integrated database (TCMID), and the targets were predicted. The active component-target network of couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus was constructed. Systems Dock Web Site online platform and Genomics platform were used to screen the active component and common targets of RA of couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus; KEGG signaling pathways of common targets were analyzed by using Cluego plug-in unit of Cytoscape 3.2.1 software. RESULTS: Totally 1 956 RA targets were retrieved, involving 11 key targets [such as IL-6, TNF, VEGFA]. The couplet medicine contained 30 active components (including luteolin, erythroxanthin, β-sitosterol and triptolide) and 229 targets. There were 37 common targets for couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus and RA (including MMP2, TNF, VEGFA). KEGG signaling way involved cell apoptosis, IL-17 signaling pathway, Th17 cell differentiation pathway and TNF signaling pathway. CONCLUSIONS: The couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus may play a role in the treatment of RA by acting on cell apoptosis, IL-17 signaling pathway and other signaling pathways through MMP2, TNF, and VEGFA target. The results of this study can provide a reference for further study on the mechanism of the effects of couplet medicine of T. hypoglaucum-S. suberectus on RA.

ABSTRACT

Jingui Yaolue is a part ofTreatise on Cold-Attack and Miscellaneous Diseases. Because of the archaic words, students lost the interest on it. So it became the questions that how to make students interested in learning theJingui Yaolue and to make traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) classical guide clinical treatment. Thus, a try has been made to teach the TCM classic in the clinical practice apprentice setting rather than the classrooms. Here, some experiences about apprentice teaching in clinical practice of Jingui Yaolue were shared.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To offer the literature basis for clinical safe drug use by literature research about ADR induced by Yishen juanbi pill. METHODS:Using“Yishen juanbi pill”as searching word,related literatures about ADR induced by Yishen juanbi pill were collected from CNKI,and then the occurrence of ADR was summarized and analyzed. RESULTS:A total of 15 literatures were included,involving 58 patients. Primary disease were mainly rheumatoid arthritis (28 cases,48.28%);organs/systems involved in ADR were digestive system (77 cases, 76.24%). Main clinical manifestations were epigastric discomfort, pernicious vomiting,diarrhea,etc. No obvious ADR was found. ADR-inducing dose was mainly 8 g,tid(47 cases,92.16%);ADR-inducing drug combination were two-drug combination (33 cases,56.90%).

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of adjunctive treatment with Qiangzhu Recipe for ankylosing spondylitis(AS). Methods Forty-eight AS patients were evenly randomized into observation group and control group according to the admission order. The observation group was given Qiangzhu Recipe together with sulfasalazine and celecoxib orally, and the control group received oral use of sulfasalazine and celecoxib. Four weeks constituted one treatment course, and the treatment covered 3 courses. The main clinical outcomes of the patients included Bath AS functional index ( BASFI) , Bath AS disease activity index ( BASDAI) , pain visual analog scale ( VAS) scores, global VAS scores, spinal mobility indexes ( finger-to-floor distance, occiput -wall distance, thoracic mobility, Schober test, scoliolosis test) , and laboratory inflammatory indicators of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein. Moreover, the incidence of adverse reaction was also recorded. Results (1) After treatment for 4, 8, and 12 weeks, the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS20 was 16.67%, 33.34%, and 70.83% respectively in the observation group, and was 8.33%, 29.17%, and 58.33% in the control group; the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS40 was 4.17%, 20.83%, and 37.50% respectively in the observation group, and was 0.00%, 12.50%and 25.00% in the control group. The differences of the percentage of the patients arriving at the degree of ASAS20 and ASAS40 were insignificant between the two groups (P>0.05). (2) After treatment, symptoms were much relieved, spinal mobility was improved, and inflammatory indicators of ESR and CRP were alleviated in the two groups ( P0.05 compared with the control group). Conclusion Adjunctive treatment with Qiangzhu Recipe exerts certain synergistic action on sulfasalazine and celecoxib in treating ankylosing spondylitis.
