ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for the clinically safe application of acalabrutinib by mining and analyzing the risk signals of adverse drug events (ADE). METHODS The acalabrutinib-induced ADE reports were extracted from the U.S. FDA adverse event reporting system using the OpenVigil 2.1 platform from November 1, 2017 to March 31, 2023. The reporting odds ratio (ROR) method and composite criteria method from the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) were used for detection of ADE signals. RESULTS There were 7 869 ADE reports of acalabrutinib as the primary suspect drug and 142 ADE positive signals were detected from them, involving 20 system organ classes, which was generally consistent with the ADE recorded in the drug instruction of acalabrutinib, mainly involving general disorders and administration site conditions, various inspection, blood and lymphatic system disorders, various neurological disorders and cardiac disorders. In addition, this study identified several new potential ADE signals that were not mentioned in the drug instruction, including sudden cardiac death, pulmonary toxicity, tumor lysis syndrome, pleural effusion, dyspepsia, gastroesophageal reflux disease, bone pain, decreased blood pressure, and abnormal blood sodium, etc. CONCLUSIONS When using acalabrutinib, in addition to paying attention to the ADE recorded in its instructions, the risk of serious ADE that may lead to death, such as sudden cardiac death and pulmonary toxicity, should also be evaluated to avoid or reduce the occurrence of ADE as much as possible.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the pseudo-CT generation from cone beam CT (CBCT) by a deep learning method for the clinical need of adaptive radiotherapy.Methods:CBCT data from 74 prostate cancer patients collected by Varian On-Board Imager and their simulated positioning CT images were used for this study. The deformable registration was implemented by MIM software. And the data were randomly divided into the training set ( n=59) and test set ( n=15). U-net, Pix2PixGAN and CycleGAN were employed to learn the mapping from CBCT to simulated positioning CT. The evaluation indexes included mean absolute error (MAE), structural similarity index (SSIM) and peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), with the deformed CT chosen as the reference. In addition, the quality of image was analyzed separately, including soft tissue resolution, image noise and artifacts, etc. Results:The MAE of images generated by U-net, Pix2PixGAN and CycleGAN were (29.4±16.1) HU, (37.1±14.4) HU and (34.3±17.3) HU, respectively. In terms of image quality, the images generated by U-net and Pix2PixGAN had excessive blur, resulting in image distortion; while the images generated by CycleGAN retained the CBCT image structure and improved the image quality.Conclusion:CycleGAN is able to effectively improve the quality of CBCT images, and has potential to be used in adaptive radiotherapy.

ABSTRACT

AIM:To investigate the efficacy of domestic cyclosporine A(CsA)in dry eye and its effect on sub-basal nerves(SBN)by observing quantitative and morphological changes in corneal SBN of patients with moderate to severe dry eye before and after the treatment with 0.05% CsA eye drops(Ⅱ).METHODS: In this prospective study, a total of 20 patients(20 eyes)with moderate to severe dry eye who admitted to the ophthalmology department of the Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanchang University from December 2020 to January 2022 were selected. They were treated with domestic CsA and followed up for 3mo. Clinical evaluation was carried out at baseline and at 3mo after treatment. The changes in clinical symptoms, signs and morphology and quantity of SBN were observed.RESULTS: The ocular surface disease index(OSDI)score, the tear break-up time(TBUT), Schirmer Ⅰ, corneal fluorescein staining(CFS)score were significantly improved at 3mo after treatment. Confocal microscopy data analysis showed that SBN density increased from 13.49±5.43 mm/mm2 to 14.93±5.34 mm/mm2(P<0.001), nerve curvature scores decreased from 2.86±0.92 to 2.31±0.75(P<0.001), number of beaded structure decreased from 1.45±0.67/100μm to 1.07±0.45/100μm(P<0.001), and the number of dendritic cell(DC)decreased from 5.83±3.28 per frame to 3.67±2.24 per frame at 3mo after treatment(P<0.001). The number of DC was positively correlated with the number of branch nerves, the grade of nerve curvature and the number of nerve bead.(rs=0.27, P=0.045; rs=0.407, P<0.01; rs=0.486, P<0.01).CONCLUSIONS: Nerve injury was positively correlated with corneal inflammation caused by dry eye, and 0.05%CsA eye drops(II)could effectively inhibit inflammation and improve the morphology and quantity of corneal SBN. Observation of corneal SBN via in vivo confocal microscopy can be used as an effective method to evaluate the therapeutic effect of dry eye patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the targeted regulation of the inflammatory pathway and its mechanism after AMPK phosphorylation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice and human monocytes induced by THP-1, so as to provide evidence for the clinical application of Mogrol (MO) in the clinical treatment of acute lung injury.Methods:Twenty-four clean C57BL/6 male mice aged 6-8 weeks were randomly (random number) divided into the control group, MO group, LPS group and LPS+ MO group with 6 mice in each group. Mice in the control group were intraperitoneally injected with normal saline (30 mL/kg), mice in the MO group were intraperitoneally injected with MO (30 mg/kg), mice in the lipopolysaccharide group were intraperitoneally injected with lipopolysaccharide (10 mg/kg), mice in the lipopolysaccharide + MO group were intraperitoneally injected with MO (30 mg/kg), and the other side was injected with lipopolysaccharide (10 mg/kg) 30 min later. After 12 h, the mice were sacrificed for sampling and pathology and molecular biological tests were carried out. Cell experiment: THP-1 cells in good condition were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum for 24 h, and then induced to differentiate into macrophages with 100 ng/mL PMA. The control group, MO group, LPS group and LPS + MO group were established. After drug stimulation, the cell suspension of each group was collected, and the cells and culture medium supernatants were used for subsequent detectionResults:Compared with the control group, the injury degree of the lipopolysaccharide group was obvious, the alveolar cavity structure was destroyed, the inflammatory cell infiltration was increased, and the alveolar septum was obviously thickened in the tissue sections. After MO intervention, the injury degree of lung tissue injury was greatly improved, and MPO and the lung wet/dry weight ratio were also significantly decreased. The mRNA levels of the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF- α in lung tissues were also significantly decreased under MO intervention [(2.96±0.10) vs. (5.53±0.14), (8.62±0.17) vs. (12.31±0.09), (3.01±0.09) vs. (4.85±0.36)]. The expression levels of NLRP3, caspase-1 p20, GSDMD-N and ASC in the lung tissues of mice in the lipopolysaccharide group were significantly higher than those in the control group, while the phosphorylation level of AMPK in the lipopolysaccharide + MO group was increased, and the expression of scorched death-related proteins was effectively inhibited [(0.58±0.09) vs. (0.89±0.15), (0.19±0.08) vs. (0.93±0.16), (0.65±0.09) vs. (0.86±0.14), (0.30±0.12) vs. (0.47±0.10), all P<0.05]. At the same time, the secretion of the inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-18, the main markers of scorch death in the tissue measured by ELISA, could also be alleviated by MO. In the cell experiment, MO also promoted the phosphorylation of AMPK, inhibited the expression of proteins related to NLRP3 inflammatory bodies, and significantly improved cell viability. Conclusions:MO attenuates LPS-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting NLRP3-mediated cell pyrogenesis by promoting the phosphorylation of AMPK.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the influence of left atrial size on the ablation efficacy, cardiac morphology and function after valve replacement combined with X-type radiofrequency ablation on posterior wall of left atrium.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2019, 416 patients with mitral valve disease complicated with atrial fibrillation were divided into two groups according to the size of left atrium(Anteroposterior diameter 60 mm). Valve replacement combined with " X" radiofrequency ablation on posterior wall of left atrium was performed. The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively.Results:Except for the AF types, gender, length of stay and postoperative complications, other clinical data, operative and perioperative indicators were better in small left atria group(SLA)than in large left atria group(LLA). The differences were statistically significant( P<0.05). Fractional shortening(FS), ejection fraction(EF) in SLA at any time point were higher than that in LLA, P<0.05. The sinus rhythm conversion rates, the change rate of LA anteroposterior diameter in SLA at postoperative time points were higher than that in LLA, P<0.05. There was no significant difference of cardiac troponin(cTn) and myoglobin(MYO) between the two groups in 6 months after operation, P>0.05. The B-type natriuretic peptide(BNP), cTn, MYO in the other time points were lower than that in LLA, P<0.05. Conclusion:Larger left atrium reduces the rate of sinus rhythm conversion and maintenance in patients undergoing valve replacement combined with fibrillation ablation. There were worse ventricular remodeling and cardiac function recovery. Preoperative evaluation of left atrial size is helpful for prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the risk factors of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation and the significance in preventing BK virus-associated nephropathy (BKVAN). Methods Clinical data of 262 renal transplant recipients with regular follow-up data were retrospectively analyzed. According to the DNA load of BK virus, all recipients were divided into the high-level BK viruria group (n=35) and non-high-level BK viruria group (n=227). The incidence of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation was summarized. The risk factors of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate analysis. Survival curve was delineated by Kaplan-Meier method, and survival analysis of recipients was performed. Results Among 262 renal transplant recipients, 35 cases developed high-level BK viruria with an incidence of 13.4%. The median time of occurrence of high-level BK viruria was 181 (126, 315) d. The incidence was the highest within 6 months after renal transplantation, gradually decreased from 6 months to 2 years, and then increased after 2 years. Univariate analysis showed that the history of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) treatment, acute rejection (AR), donation type and delayed graft function (DGF) were the risk factors of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation (all P < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that donation after brain death followed by cardiac death (DBCD), AR and DGF were the independent risk factors of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates of recipients with ATG treatment history, AR, DGF and donation type of DBCD were significantly lower than those with non-ATG treatment history, non-AR, non-DGF and other donation types [donation after brain death (DBD), donation after cardiac death (DCD) and living organ donation] respectively (all P < 0.05). Conclusions DBCD, AR and DGF are the independent risk factors of high-level BK viruria after renal transplantation. Strengthening the postoperative monitoring of these recipients and delivering early intervention may effectively prevent BKVAN.

ABSTRACT

Emerging and re-emerging RNA viruses occasionally cause epidemics and pandemics worldwide, such as the on-going outbreak of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Herein, we identified two potent inhibitors of human DHODH, S312 and S416, with favorable drug-likeness and pharmacokinetic profiles, which all showed broad-spectrum antiviral effects against various RNA viruses, including influenza A virus, Zika virus, Ebola virus, and particularly against SARS-CoV-2. Notably, S416 is reported to be the most potent inhibitor so far with an EC of 17 nmol/L and an SI value of 10,505.88 in infected cells. Our results are the first to validate that DHODH is an attractive host target through high antiviral efficacy in vivo and low virus replication in DHODH knock-out cells. This work demonstrates that both S312/S416 and old drugs (Leflunomide/Teriflunomide) with dual actions of antiviral and immuno-regulation may have clinical potentials to cure SARS-CoV-2 or other RNA viruses circulating worldwide, no matter such viruses are mutated or not.

ABSTRACT

To investigate the effects of different habitat processing methods of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma on acute myocardial ischemia induced by pituitrin in rats. In this experiment, the tail vein injection of pituitrin was used to induce acute myocardial ischemia in rats. Electrocardiograph(ECG) heart rate and ΔST changes were recorded, and the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), superoxide dismutase(SOD) and malondialdehyde(MDA) in serum of rats were detected to comprehensively evaluate the effects of six processing methods of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma on serum biochemical indexes of rats with acute myocardial injury. The ECG results showed that the Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma dried in a drying oven had a good effect on the improvement of heart rate and ΔST of electrocardiogram after ischemia, and all the other groups had some protective effects to different degrees. The results of biochemical indexes in serum of each group after ischemia showed that the activity of CK-MB decreased most significantly in Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma high-dose group with drying in a drying oven after sweating and losing weight in a drying oven, high-dose group with drying in the shade and low-dose group with drying in the shade. The activity of LDH decreased most significantly in Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma high-dose group with drying in the shade and low-dose group of drying in the shade. The activity of SOD increased most significantly in Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma low-dose group with drying in sun, low-dose group with drying in sun after sweating and losing weight in sun, and low-dose group with drying in a drying oven. The activity of MDA decreased most significantly in Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma low-dose group with drying in sun. The comprehensive scoring results showed that the highest score was obtained in Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma high-dose group with drying in the shade while the scores of other treatment groups were higher than that of the model group. It could be seen that the Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma dried in a drying oven had a good improvement effect on electrocardiograph indexes after acute myocardial injury, the Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma dried in the shade had a good improvement effect on serum myocardial enzymes after acute myocardial injury, and the other processing methods had a certain protective effect on myocardial injury. The six processing methods evaluated by pharmacodynamics showed that the Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma dried in the shade and dried in a drying oven had good efficacy.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate whether Ershen Pill (ESP, ) could alleviate the symptom of Pi (Spleen)-Shen (Kidney) yang deficiency (PSYD)-induced diarrhea in rat model and explore its anti-diarrhea mechanism.@*METHODS@#Seventy-five Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 5 groups by a random number table, including control, positive, model, low-dose (LD) and high-dose (HD) ESP groups, 15 rats in each group. All the rats, except those in the control group, were developed PSYD induced-diarrhea based on its pathology and etiology. The rats in positive, LD and HD ESP groups were treated with Shenling Baizhu Pill (), LD (1.05 g/kg) or HD (3.50 g/kg) ESP petroleum ether extract once a day for 2 weeks, respectively. Body weight change and diarrhea index were measured. The histology scores of the kidney were evaluated via hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Aquaporin-3 (AQP3) expression in the colon was analyzed by immunofluorescence, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blot, respectively.@*RESULTS@#Compared with the model group, oral administration of LD and HD ESP prevented body weight loss and inhibited diarrhea after 2-week treatment (P<0.05). Kidney deterioration was impeded, and the histology score in LD and HD ESP groups were 8.2 and 10.5, respectively, which were both higher than those in the model group (P<0.05). In addition, ESP treatment alleviated rat colitis, and HD ESP significantly improved the AQP3 positive staining intensity in the colon tissue compared with the model group. The result from Western blot revealed that AQP3 protein synthesis in colon tissue of LD and HD ESP groups increased by 2.1- and 5.9-fold compared with the model group (P<0.05). qRT-PCR result showed that AQP3 gene expression in the HD ESP group was also up-regulated by 2.5-fold normalized to the model group (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#ESP extract effectively alleviates the symptoms of PSYD and relieves PSYD-induced diarrhea by improving AQP3 synthesis in the colon.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To observe the efficacy and safety of apatinib combined with systemic chemotherapy for hepatic metastasis of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN). METHODS: Totally 60 patients with GEP-NEN in Hubei Provincial Tumor Hospital from Jan. 2016 to Jan. 2018 were randomly divided into systemic chemotherapy group, apatinib group and combination group, with 20 patients in each group. Systemic chemotherapy group was given Etoposide injection 80 mg/m2,once a day d1-5, intravenously+Cisplatin for injection 20 mg/m2,once a day d1-5,intravenously, every 3 weeks for a cycle. Apatinib group was given Apatinib mesylate tablets 0.5 g, once a day. Combination group received treatment as systemic chemotherapy group+apatinib group. All three groups were treated continuously for 3 months. The clinical efficacies of 3 groups were observed. The serum levels of tumor markers (CEA, NSE, CgA and CA19-9) before and after treatment, survival situation after treatment and the occurrence of ADR during treatment were also observed. RESULTS: The objective remission rate, disease control rate, median overall survival and survival rate of combination group were significantly higher or longer than those of systemic chemotherapy group and apatinib group. Median progression-free survival and the incidence of ADR were significantly shorter or lower than systemic chemotherapy group and apatinib group (P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of CEA, NSE, CgA and CA19-9 in 3 groups were significantly lower than before treatment, and combination group was significantly lower than systemic chemotherapy group and apatinib group (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in above indexes between systemic chemotherapy group and apatinib group (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Apatinib combined with systemic chemotherapy for liver metastasis of GEP-NEN is effective and safe, which can improve the level of serum tumor markers, prolong the survival time of patients and improve survival rate.

ABSTRACT

The aims of the present study were to determine the effects of heparin-derived oligosaccharides (HDOs) on vascular intimal hyperplasia (IH) in balloon-injured carotid artery and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of action. An animal model was established by rubbing the endothelia within the common carotid artery (CCA) in male rabbits. The rabbits were fed a high-cholesterol diet. Arterial IH was determined by histopathological changes to the CCA. Serum lipids were detected using an automated biochemical analysis. Expressions of mRNAs for vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA-1) were analyzed using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assays. Expressions of VEGF, VCAM-1, MCP-1, SR-BI and ABCA-1 proteins were analyzed by Western blotting. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were used to quantify expression levels of VEGF and bFGF. Our results showed that administration of HDO significantly inhibited CCA histopathology and restenosis induced by balloon injury. The treatment with HDOs significantly decreased the mRNA and protein expression levels of VEGF, bFGF, VCAM-1, MCP-1, and SR-BI in the arterial wall; however, ABCA-1 expression level was elevated. HDO treatment led to a reduction in serum lipids (total cholesterol, triglycerides, high-density and low-density lipoproteins). Our results from the rabbit model indicated that HDOs could ameliorate IH and underlying mechanism might involve VEGF, bFGF, VCAM-1, MCP-1, SR-BI, and ABCA-1.

ABSTRACT

Objective To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Ershen Pills extracted with petroleum ether, which contains Psoraleae Fructus (PF) before and after processing, and initially set up the pattern recognition technique of the extract, so as to provide reference for quality control. Methods HPLC was used, and the separation was performed at 30 ℃ on an Spolar Hplc Packed C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm). Gradient elution was performed with the mobile phases of methanol-acetonitrile (1:1) and water containing 0.1% formic acid. The flow rate was 1 mL/min, and sample size was 10 μL. The UV detection wavelength was set at 210 nm. Furthermore, the fingerprint was analyzed by similarity analysis, as well as pattern recognition technique, including hierarchical clustering analysis and principal component analysis. Results The fingerprints were established respectively consisting of 28 common peaks well separated. There into, six compounds were identified (psoralen, isopsoralen, methyleugenol, methylisoeugenol, dehydrodiisoeugenol, and backuchiol). Compared with the reference spectrum, the similarity degrees were greater than 0.9. When dealing with principal component analysis, the samples were well divided into two categories, which was consistent with the principal component analysis. Meanwhile, the results of principal component analysis prompted some chromatographic peaks which could be used to distinguish between two species. Conclusion The method is stable and reliable, which can be used for quality control of Ershen Pills extracted with petroleum ether. Meanwhile, it is contributing to the entire quality control and quality evaluation when combined with chemical pattern recognition.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of three herb extracts on cell proliferation and collagen synthesis in cultured hu-man dermal fibroblasts. Methods:The human dermal fibroblasts were isolated and cultured with tissue explant culture technique. Im-munohistochemical staining was performed to observe vimentin in fibroblasts. The proliferation of fibroblasts was determined by MTT as-say. Hydroxyproline in the cultural medium was determined by a digestion method. Results:The cells were typical fibroblasts, and the immunohistochemistry staining of vimentin in the cells was positive. The three herb extracts could promote the proliferation of the fibro-blasts at appropriate concentrations in a time-dependent manner. After the 72-hour culture in the medium, 0. 312 5-5. 000 0 mg·ml-1 Aloe vera gel extract, 0. 156 3-2. 500 0 mg·ml-1 Bletilla striata extract and 0. 075 0 mg·ml-1 salvianolate showed significant effects on the proliferation of fibroblasts (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01 vs the blank group). Compared with that in the blank group, the amount of hydroxyproline in the three herb extracts cultural medium was also increased (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). The effect of salvianolate on the cell proliferation was closely related with time and concentration, and the high concentration group could inhibit the growth of fibroblasts as the extension of time. Conclusion:Aloe vera gel extract, bletilla striata extract and salvianolate can promote the proliferation of fi-broblasts and the production of hydroxyproline, which may contribute to the wound healing.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To optimize the formula of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray and establish the quality control meth-od. Methods:Amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray was prepared by a cold dissolving method, and poloxamer 407 (P407) and poloxamer 188 (P188) were used as the carrier materials. Central composite design-response surface methodology was used to optimize the formula with the amount of P407 and P188 as the influencing factors and the gel temperature and the viscosity before gelling as the indices. The content of amlexanox was determined by HPLC. According to Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2010 edition), the other indices of the preparation such as appearance, pH, viscosity, content, total spray times of each bottle and the content of each spray were deter-mined as well. Results:The optimum ratio of P407 and P188 was 17. 0% and 0. 9%,respectively . The average recovery of amlexanox was 98. 8% and RSD was 1. 7%(n=9). The quality of 3 batches of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray met the related require-ments. Conclusion:The formula and preparation process of amlexanox nasal thermosensitive gel spray are reasonable and feasible with controllable quality, which is worthy of further research.
