Basic Research Progress of Zang Medicine in Treatment of Hypoxic Pulmonary Hypertension / 医药导报

Hypoxic pulmonary hypertension(HPH)is a kind of chronic high-altitude sickness disease,which is also the initiation link of high-altitude sickness such as pneumocardial disease and high-altitude pulmonary edema.Its main features are persistent vasoconstriction and irreversible remodeling of blood vessels.HPH has greatly impacted the health of people in the plat-eau section.As a typical representative of ethnic medicine,Zang medicine embodies the wisdom of the Zang people in their long-term struggle against diseases.Adapting to local conditions for a long time,Zang medicine has unique advantages in the treatment of HPH.By reviewing the pathogenesis of HPH and the research of single Zang medicine and the complex prescription of Zang medicine in the treatment of HPH,this article aims to provide a theoretical basis for the physiological and pathological research of HPH and to provide a reference for the clinical application of Zang medicine.

Bioequivalence study on two terazosin hydrochloride tablets / 药学实践杂志

Objective To evaluate the bioequivalence of domestic and imported terazosin hydrochloride tablets after single oral dose .Methods It was a single center ,randomized ,open ,cross-over trail design ,21 subjects were fasting oral adminis-tered of 2 mg domestic and imported terazosin hydrochloride tablets in different periods ,venous blood 4 ml were collected in different time points before and 60 h after administration ,plasma concentration of terazosin was determined by LC-MS/MS . Results The main pharmacokinetic parameters of domestic and imported terazosin hydrochloride tablets were as follows :t1/2 :(13.2± 2.39)hvs(12.5±1.93)h,tmax :(1.01±0.83)hvs(1.08±0.69)h,Cmax :(40.1±10.6)ng/mlvs(37.3± 9 .57) ng/ml;AUC0- ∞ :(428 ± 82 .1) ng · h/ml vs (426 ± 85 .2) ng · h/ml .The relative bioavailability of domestic terazosin hydrochloride tablets was (101 .2 ± 14 .7)% .90% CI of domestic and imported terazosin hydrochloride tablets AUC0-t and Cmax geometric mean ratio fell between 80% -125% .Conclusion The domestic tablets are bioequivalent to the imported tablets .

Effects of matrine and oxymatrine on apoptosis in human hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 / 国际中医中药杂志

Objective To explore the effects of matrine and oxymatrine on apoptosis in human hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 cells.Methods The MTT assay and double staining of annexin V-fluorescein isothiocyanate(annexin V-FITC)/propidium iodide(propidium iodide, PI)were used to detect proliferation and apoptosis of SMMC-7721 cells, respectively.Results When the concentrations of matrine and oxymatrine were 0.50 mg/ml, 1.00 mg/ml and 2.00 mg/ml, the proliferation inhibition rates in SMMC-7721 cells was gradually increased in a dose- and time-dependent manner,and the inhibition of matrine on proliferation were greater than that of oxymatrine in the same concentration(1.00 mg/ml)(24 h:42.39%±0.04%vs. 21.36%±0.02%;48 h: 51.69%±0.03%vs. 36.16%±0.02%;72 h: 78.98%±0.05%vs. 61.24%±0.13%;allP<0.05). When the concentrations of matrine and oxymatrine were 0.25 mg/ml, 0.50 mg/ml and 1.00 mg/ml, the apoptosis rates of SMMC-7721 cells were significantly increased;and induction of matrine in apoptosis in SMMC-7721 cells was greater than that of oxymatrine at the same time point(48 h)(apoptosis rates in 0.25 mg/ml, 4.08%±0.20%vs. 2.20%±0.18%;0.50 mg/ml: 4.32%±0.19%vs. 3.08%±0.26%;1.00 mg/ml: 9.93%±0.18%vs. 9.01%±0.20%;allP<0.05).Conclusion Matrine and oxymatrine can inhibit proliferation and promote apoptosis human hepatocarcinoma SMMC-7721 cells.

Determination of Pinitol in Fufang Kushen Injection by HPLC-ELSD / 中国中医药信息杂志

Objective To establish an HPLC-ELSD method for the determination of pinitol in Fufang Kushen Injection. Methods Chromatographic condition was as follows:Cosmosil Sugar-D column (250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm), the mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile-water in gradient mode, the temperature of the drift tube of 77 ℃, and the gas flow rate of 2.0 L/min. Results The standard curve of pinitol was rectilinear within the range of 0.5-10.0 μg, r=0.999 6 (n=5). The average recovery was 97.30%(RSD=1.29%, n=5). Conclusion The method is simple and rapid, the result is accurate, reliable and reproducible.

Curative effect of arthroscopic suture anchor fixation on shoulder bankart injury / 中南大学学报(医学版)

OBJECTIVE@#To determine the curative effect of arthroscopic suture anchor fixation on shoulder bankart injury.@*METHODS@#Sixteen patients with shoulder recurrent dislocation and diagnosed bankart injury were treated with suture anchor fixed by shoulder arthroscopy. Both shoulders of the patients had X-ray, MRI, physical examination before the operation. Suture anchors were used to fix the lesion labrum by shoulder arthroscopy. University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) score and visual analogue scale (VAS) score were adopted for the final evaluation at the latest follow-up.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed for a period of 25 (7-68) months. At the latest follow-up, no redislocation and instability occured. The pre- and post-operation UCLA score was (20.8 ± 0.8) vs (32.9 ± 1.5), excellent in 6, good in 10, with no poor score, while the pre- and post-operation VAS score was (3.3 ± 0.8) vs (0.6 ± 0.5).@*CONCLUSION@#Suture anchor fixation guided by arthroscopy is good for bankart injury caused by recurrent shoulder dislocation, which has many advantages, such as mini-invasion, rapid recovery and a satisfactory outcome in function and motion.

Study on Techniques of Preparing Baicalin Gelatin Microspheres / 中国中医药信息杂志

Objective To optimize the best techniques of preparing baicalin gelatin microspheres with orthogonal experimental design.Methods Baicalin gelatin microspheres were prepared by emulsion chemical-cross linking method with degradable gelatin as carrier,liquid paraffin as oil phase,Span-80 as emulsifier.The particle size,containing efficiency of microspheres were determined and technique reproducibility was studied.Results Microspheres with good shape,smooth surface and narrow size distribution were prepared.The average diameter of microspheres was 27.47 ?m,the loading amount of medicine was 8.18% and encapsulation efficiency was 70.21%.Conclusion The preparation procedure established was stable and practical.
