Study on the protective effect of adenosine cyclophosphate combined with vitamin C antiviral therapy on myocardial injury in children with viral myocarditis

Objective:TTo study the protective effect of adenosine cyclophosphate combined with vitamin C antiviral therapy on myocardial injury in children with viral myocarditis.Methods: 88 cases of children with viral myocarditis treated in Ningde Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between June 2014 and September 2016 were selected and randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group who received adenosine cyclophosphate combined with vitamin C antiviral therapy and conventional therapy respectively. Serum levels of myocardial injury indexes, antioxidant indexes and collagen metabolism indexes were determined.Results:1 week and 2 weeks after treatment, serum LDH, CK, CK-MB, ET-1, Ang-II, PICP and PINP contents of both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment while SOD, GSH-Px, CAT and HO-1 contents were significantly higher than those before treatment and serum LDH, CK, CK-MB, ET-1, Ang-II, PICP and PINP contents of intervention group were significantly lower than those of control group while SOD, GSH-Px, CAT and HO-1 contents were significantly higher than those of control group.Conclusion: Adenosine cyclophosphate combined with vitamin C therapy for viral myocarditis can reduce myocardial injury and improve collagen metabolism.

Effects of Shenmai Injection(参麦注射液)Combined with Meglumine Adenosine Cyclophosphate Injection on Cardiac Function and Peripheral Serum Levels of TNF-α,TGF-β1 and IFN-γ in Patients with Viral Myocarditis

Objective: To explore effects of Shenmai Injection(参麦注射液) combined with Meglumine Adenosine Cyclophosphate Injection on cardiac function and peripheral serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1) and interferon-γ(IFN-γ) in patients with viral myocarditis.Methods: A total of 70 patients with viral myocarditis admitted in Cardiovascular Medicine Department of our hospital from June 2016 to June 2018 were selected and divided into a control group(treated with Meglumine Adenosine Cyclophosphate Injection) and an observation group(additionally treated with Shenmai Injection(参麦注射液) on the treatment basis of the control group) according to random number method, with 35 cases in each group.Before and after the treatment, cardiac functional indexes like cardiac index(CI), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) and left ventricular shortening fraction(FS), serum levels of TNF-α, TGF-β1 and IFN-γ, clinical efficacy and adverse reactions occurred in the 2 groups were recorded and compared.Results: Therapeutic effective rate in the observation group was 88.57%, higher than 68.57% in the control group(P < 0.05).After the treatment, cardiac functional indexes like CI, LVEF and FS were higher than those in the control group(P < 0.05).After the treatment, the serum expression levels of TNF-α and TGF-β1 were lower than those in the control group(P < 0.05), while the serum expression level of IFN-γ was higher than that in the control group(P < 0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the adverse reaction rates between the 2 groups(P > 0.05).Conclusion: The treatment of patients with viral myocarditis by Shenmai Injection(参麦注射液) combined with Meglumine Adenosine Cyclophosphate Injection is more effective, reducing inflammation and restoring cardiac function.

A sequential continuous flow synthesis and purification process of calcium dibutyryladenosine cyclophosphate

Calcium dibutyryladenosine cyclophosphate is a widely used cardiovascular drug.The traditional batch synthesis process suffers from long reaction times,tedious operations,and unstable yields.Herein,a sequential continuous flow synthesis combined with a multistage in-line purification process of calcium dibutyryladenosine cyclophosphate was developed.The acylation reaction was completed in a continuous coil reactor at 160℃ in 20 min.And the high toxic solvent pyridine was replaced by acetonitrile.Furthermore,the multistage in-line purification process was integrated into the homemade 3D circular cyclone-type micromixer chip.Combining with the membrane phase separators,the residence time of the purification step was 30 s.The isolated yield of this sequential continuous process was 92%with 99%purity.

Oral administration of dibutyryl adenosine cyclophosphate improved growth performance in weaning piglets by enhancing lipid fatty acids metabolism

Dibutyryl adenosine cyclophosphate(dbc AMP-Ca), an analog of cyclic adenosine monophosphate(c AMP), plays greater roles in regulating physiological activities and energy metabolism than c AMP. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of oral administration of dbc AMP-Ca on growth performance and fatty acids metabolism in weaning piglets. A total of 14 early weaning piglets(7 ± 1 d of age,3.31 ± 0.09 kg, Landrace ? Large White ? Duroc) were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group and dbc AMP-Ca group, and the piglets received 7 m L of 0.9% Na Cl or 1.5 mg dbc AMP-Ca dissolved in 7 m L of 0.9% Na Cl per day for 10 d, respectively. The results showed that the average daily gain(ADG)increased by 109.17%(P < 0.05) in the dbc AMP-Ca group compared with the control group. Besides,dbc AMP-Ca significantly decreased blood high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDLC) concentration(P < 0.05) and significantly increased blood low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDLC) concentration(P < 0.05) compared with the control group. Further, liver C18:2 n6 t content significantly increased in dbc AMP-Ca group(P < 0.05) compared with the control group. With the increase of C18:2 n6 t content,the m RNA expression levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor a(PPARa) and hormone sensitive glycerol three lipase(HSL), of which genes are related to lipid metabolism, were also significantly increased(P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). All of the results indicated that dbc AMP-Ca improved the ADG, which was probably done by regulating fatty acids metabolism in the liver of weaning piglets.

Studies on the Antitumour Activities of 8-Chloroadenosine

Sp) Octyl 8 chloroadenosine 3′5′cyclophosphate (OCC), a newly synthesized 8 Cl c AMP derivative, strongly induced inhibition and differentiation in human leukemia HL 60 cells. In flow cytometry, OCC brought about a block at the G1 phase of HL 60 cell cycle. OCC inhibited strongly the synthesis of DNA without affecting the synthesis of RNA and protein in HL 60 cells and also activated the c AMP dependent protein kinase in the cytosol of HL 60 cells. 8 Chloroadenosine is the active metabolite of OCC and inhibited significantly the growth of tumour in vitro and in vivo tests. 8 Chloroadenosine can induce differentiation of gastric mucoid adenocarcinoma cell line MGc80 3 and induce apoptosis in the MOLT 4 cells. The mechanism of the antitumour effects of 8 chloroadenosine was discussed.
