RESUMO
The aim of this study is to develop the Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels and investigate its pharmacodynamics. Oleic acid was used as oil phase, polyoxyethylene castor oil as surfaetant, and 1,2-propanediol as cosurfactant to screen the formula of Tripterygium glycoside nanoemulsion using the pseudo-temary phase diagrams. Then the nanoemulsion gels was prepared. The ICR mouse ears were sensitazated by 7% DNCB, and then were excited by 0.3% DNCB to stimulate the model of mouse chronic dermatitis and eczema. The concentrations of IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-8 in mouse blood were determined by ELISA. The results showed that Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels could significantly inhibit the swelling of mouse ears(P < 0.01) and ameliorate the edama and erythema of model mouse ears skin. Also it could significantly decrease the expression of IFN-γ and IL-4 in model mouse blood. Tripterygium glycosides nanoemulsion gels had a good therapeutic effect on mouse model of dermatitis and eczema. It was expected to provide a new and long-acting exterernal preparation for the treatment of dermatitis and eczema.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the influence of high frequency stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus on the levels of amino acids neurotransmitters in striatum of hemi-parkinsonian monkeys.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Two rhesus monkeys were successfully prepared for the subsequent microdialysis sessions. Collecting the dialysate before turning on the pulse generator, and collecting at 1 week, 1, 8 and 12 months after high frequency stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus. The level of Glu, GABA and Tau were determined by high performance liquid chromatography and fluorometric detection (HPLC-FD).</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>After high frequency stimulation (HFS), PD symptoms of monkeys significantly improved. The levels of Glu in putamen and caudate nucleus of electrodes side at 1 week, 1, 8 and 12 months were increased significantly. The levels of GABA in putamen and caudate nucleus of electrodes side at 1 week, 1 month increased significantly compared with before turning on the pulse generator while decreased at 8, 12 months. The level of Tau in putamen and caudate nucleus increased significantly.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Long-term STN HFS can increase the level of glutamate and taurine, while decrease the level of GABA in putamen and caudate nucleus of electrodes side. It improves symptoms of hemi-parkinsonian rhesus monkey significantly.</p>
