We collected and reviewed all cases involving inpatients who had used rosiglitazone in the hospital over the past two years. The focus of our study is on the identification and discussion of the incidence of adverse reactions, contraindications and drug induced problems associ- ated with monotherapy or combined therapy of rosiglitazone. Three hundred and ninety eight cases were reviewed in the study including 3 patients with type 1 DM (0.75%) and 395 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (99.25%). Peripheral edema developed in 9 patients (2.26%) in the course of rosiglitazone therapy; one patient (0.25%) was found to have macula edema before rosiglitazone therapy; Cardiac abnormalities were identified in 6 patients (1.51%) in the course of treatment, of which 2 patients were NYHA class 1, 3 patients were NYHA class Ⅱ and 1 patient was NYHA class IV. Abnormal hepatic function (elevated ALT) was found in 79 patients (19.85%) during their stay in hospital. In these patients, ALT levels of 1 - 2.5 times, 2.5 - 3 times over the upper limit were identified in 70 patients, 3 patients and 6 patients, respectively. Of the 398 patients on rosiglitazone, 123 patients (30.90%), 165 patients (41.46%), 104 patients (26.13%), 3 patients (0.75%) and 1 patient (0.25%) were found to use concurrently insulin, metformin, organic nitrate, gemfibrozil and rifampin, respectively. We analyzed the risk factors associated with the clinical use of rosiglitazone, and identified the potential risks, and put forward suggestions to improve the effectiveness and safety of rosiglitazone therapy.展开更多

METHODS: A large human naive scFv phage library was used to search for the specific targets by biopanning with the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 for the positive-selecting and the normal liver cell line L02 for the counter-selecting. After three rounds of biopanning, individual scFv phages binding selectively to HepG2 cells were picked out. PCR was carried out for identification of the clones containing scFv gene sequence. The specific scFv phages were selected by ELISA and flow cytometry. DMA sequences of positive clones were analyzed by using Applied Biosystem Automated DNA sequencers 3 730. The expression proteins of the specific scFv antibody fragments in F.coli HB2151 were purified by the affinity chromatography and detected by SDS-PAGE, Western blot and ELISA. The biological effect of the soluble antibody fragments on the HepG2 cells was investigated by observing the cell proliferation. RESULTS: Two different positive clones were obtained and the functional variable sequences were identified. Their DNA sequences of the scFv antibody fragments were submitted to GenBank (accession nos: AY686498 and AY686499). The soluble scFv antibody fragments were successfully expressed in E.coli HB2151. The relative molecular mass of the expression products was about 36 ku, according to its predicted M, value. The two soluble scFv antibody fragments also had specific binding activity and obvious growth inhibition properties to HepG2 cells. CONCLUSION: The phage library biopanning permits identification of specific antibody fragments for hepatocellular carcinoma and affords experiment evidence for its immunotherapy study.展开更多
