The drug concentration-time curve for target organ can be plotted with reference to the data of drug concentration in blood according to the model. The pharmacokinetic parameters of the drug in target organ could also be obtained. The practicability of the model was further checked by the curves of drug concentration-time in blood and target organ(liver) of liver-targeting nanoparticles in animal tests. Based on the liver drug concentration-time curves calculated by the function formula of the drug in target organ, the pharmacokinetic behavior of the drug in target organ(liver) was analyzed by statistical moment, and its pharmacokinetic parameters in liver were obtained. It is suggested that the (relative targeting index( can be used for quantitative evaluation of the targeting drug delivery systems.展开更多

Methods: N-nitrosodiethylamine (DENA) and CCl4 were applied jointly to duplicate the rat hepatocirrhosis and hepatic cancer model. The rats were divided into 7 groups and were administrated via nasal-stomach tube with PS-T in di?erent phases to interfere the cancer genesis and development. All the rats were killed in 20 weeks for pathological observation. Results: The loss of body weight of rats slowed down in the PS-T-treated group, and the carcinogenesis rate was signi?cantly decreased correspondingly. PS-T could also inhibit the carcinogenesis by supressing the hepatocirrhosis, which showed the positive correlation between the curative e?ect and the curative period. Conclusion: Application of PS-T during cancer induction showed a signi?cant e?ect on preventing and supressing cancer. PS-T might be an ideal drug for clinical anti-cancer therapy. And it will be a main drug in both combined and single treatments for tumor.展开更多

METHODS: Colitis was induced in male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (170-180 g) by 4% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS, wt/v, MW 54000) in drinking water for 8 d. The treated rats received 4% DSS and SRE orally (100 mg/kg per day). Control rats received either tap water or SRE only. Macroscopic assessment which included body weight changes, fecal occult blood and stool consistency were determined daily. At the appointed time, the rats were sacrificed and the entire colons were removed. The colon length and the myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were measured. The severity of colitis was graded by morphological and histological assessments. The ion transport activity of the colonic mucosa was assessed by electrophysiological technique. RESULTS: Rats treated with oral administration of 4% DSS regularly developed clinical and macroscopic signs of colitis. Treatment with SRE relieved the symptoms, including the reduction in body weight, shortening 2nd ulceration of the colon. Administration of SRE also significantly reduced the histological damage induced by DSS. Moreover, the Isc responses of the colonic mucosa to forskolin, were suppressed after the induction of colitis. The stimulated ion transport activity of DSS-rats treated with SRE displayed significant improvement in the secretory responsiveness. CONCLUSION: SRE was effective in treating acute DSS- induced ulcerative colitis, as gauged by reduced clinical disease, improved macroscopic and histological damage scores, and enhanced recovery of normal colonic secretory function.展开更多

Methods: High-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection method was used in this study. Results: The pharmacokinetics of Ginsenoside Rg3 in 14 healthy volunteers were investigated. After a single oral dose of 3.2 mg.g-1 Ginsenoside Rg3 in 8 male volunteers, the plasma concentration-time course fitted in well with a two-compartment open model, with the following pharmacokinetic parameters: Tmax 0.660.10 h, Cmax 166 ngmL-1, T1/2a 0.460.12 h, T1/2b 4.91.1 h, T1/2(Ka) 0.280.04 h, AUC0-∞ 7726 ngmL-1h, respectively. No kinetic analysis was made after an oral dose of 0.8 mg.g-1 Rg3 in other 6 volunteers because of the low concentration, but there was a good correlation between Cmax and dosage of the two groups. Conclusion: The absorption of Rg3 was rapid in the human body, and its elimination was rapid too after oral administration of Ginsenoside Rg3. The pharmacokinetic results shows that it exhibited the first-order kinetic characteristics.展开更多

[Method] The data set included twenty counties from 1991 to 2009. Therefore fixed effect model was established to evaluate the effect of insecticide spray on the infes- tation level of rice planthopper. The OLS method was used to estimate the fixed ef- fect model. [Result] The regression results of the fixed effect model suggested that one period lag insecticide spray had a significant effect on the infestation level of rice planthopper. [Conclusion] Even though rice planthopper is a migratory rice pest, insecticide spray has a significant effect on the infestation level of rice planthopper in large spatial scale and in long term.展开更多

The rats of model group and treatment group were given small dosage of CCL4 combined with a fat-rich diet, andthose of control group were given normal diet. After four weeks of fat-rich diet feeding, the rats of treatment group were given Sinai san decoction. The serum levels of aminotransferase and lipid were measured, and the pathology of livers was observed by HE staining after the rats were sacrificed at eight weeks.RESULTS: The rats' livers presented the pathology of steatosis and inflammation with higher serum levels of ALT and AST in the model group. In the treatment group the serum ALT and AST levels decreased significantly and were close to the control group. The hepatic inflammation scores also decreased markedly, but were still higher than those of control group. And the degree of hepatocyte steatosis was similar to that of model group.CONCLUSION: Sinai san decoction may ameliorate the hepatic inflammation of rats with steatohepatitis induced by small dosage of CCL4 combined with a fat-rich diet,but does not prevent the development of hepatocyte steatosis.展开更多

METHODS: A human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7902 grafted onto nude mice was used as the animal model. The mice were randomly divided into 3 groups, one control and the two representing experimental conditions. Animals in the two experimental groups received either WCA over a 34-d period or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) over 6-d period starting at 8th d after grafting. Control animals received saline on an identical schedule. Animals were killed 41 d after being grafted. The expression profiles in paired WCA treated gastric cancer samples and the N.S. control samples were studied by using a cDNA array representing 14181 cDNA clusters. The alterations in gene expression levels were confirmed by Real-time Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). RESULTS: When compared with controls, the average tumor inhibitory rate in WCA group was 44.32% ± 5.67% and 5-FU 47.04% ± 22.33% (P 〈 0.01, respectively). The average labeling index (LI) for PCNA in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly decreased compared with the control group. Apoptotic index (AI) was significantly increased to 9.72% ± 4.52% using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate fluorescence nick end labeling (TUNEL) method in WCA group compared with the controls 2.45% ± 2.37%. 5-FU group was also found to have a significantly increased AI compared with the controls. The expression of cleaved Caspase-3 in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly increased compared with the control group respectively. There were 45 different expressed sequence tags (ESTs) among the control sample pool and WCA sample pool. There were 24 ESTs up-regulated in WCA samples and 21 ESTs down-regulated. By using qPCR, the expression level of Stat3, rap2 interacting protein x (RIPX), regulator of differentiation 1 (ROD1) and Bcl-2 was lower in WCA group than that in control group respectively. By using SP immunohistochemical method the expression of Phospho-Stat3 (Tyr705) and Bcl-2 in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly decreased compared with the control group respectively. CONCLUSION: WCA could inhibit gastric cancer cell SGC-7901 growth in vivo. WCA could induce gastric cancer cell apoptosis and suppress proliferation. Its mechanisms might be involved in the down-regulation of Star3, RIPX, ROD1 and Bcl-2 gene.展开更多

After a single oral dose of 3.2 mg.g-1 Ginsenoside Rg3 in 8 male volunteers, the plasma concentration-time course fitted in well with a two-compartment open model, with the following pharmacokinetic parameters: Tmax 0.660.10 h, Cmax 166 ngmL-1, T1/2a 0.460.12 h, T1/2b 4.91.1 h, T1/2(Ka) 0.280.04 h, AUC0-∞ 7726 ngmL-1h, respectively. No kinetic analysis was made after an oral dose of 0.8 mg.g-1 Rg3 in other 6 volunteers because of the low concentration, but there was a good correlation between Cmax and dosage of the two groups. Conclusion: The absorption of Rg3 was rapid in the human body, and its elimination was rapid too after oral administration of Ginsenoside Rg3. The pharmacokinetic results shows that it exhibited the first-order kinetic characteristics.
文摘[Objective] This study aimed at revealing the effect of insecticide spray on the infestation level of rice planthopper in large spatial scale and in long term. [Method] The data set included twenty counties from 1991 to 2009. Therefore fixed effect model was established to evaluate the effect of insecticide spray on the infes- tation level of rice planthopper. The OLS method was used to estimate the fixed ef- fect model. [Result] The regression results of the fixed effect model suggested that one period lag insecticide spray had a significant effect on the infestation level of rice planthopper. [Conclusion] Even though rice planthopper is a migratory rice pest, insecticide spray has a significant effect on the infestation level of rice planthopper in large spatial scale and in long term.
文摘[Objective] This study aimed to survey the effect of insecticide use intensity on the resistance of rice stem borer in South China. [Method] The data includes 19 counties from Guangdong Province and Guangxi Province from 1991 to 2010. A fixed effect model was established to evaluate the effect of insecticide use intensity on the resistance of rice stem borer. [Result] The regression results suggest that one-period lagged total number of insecticide sprays has significant effect on the infestation level of rice stem borer. [Conclusion] Although rice stem borer is a migratory rice pest, insecticide use intensity has significant effect on the resistance level of rice stem borer in South China.
文摘AIM: To explore the effect of Sinai san decoction on the development of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis induced by CCL4 combined with a fat-rich diet in rats.METHODS: Twenty-seven Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into three groups randomly: control group (n = 9),model group (n = 9) and treatment group (n = 9). The rats of model group and treatment group were given small dosage of CCL4 combined with a fat-rich diet, andthose of control group were given normal diet. After four weeks of fat-rich diet feeding, the rats of treatment group were given Sinai san decoction. The serum levels of aminotransferase and lipid were measured, and the pathology of livers was observed by HE staining after the rats were sacrificed at eight weeks.RESULTS: The rats' livers presented the pathology of steatosis and inflammation with higher serum levels of ALT and AST in the model group. In the treatment group the serum ALT and AST levels decreased significantly and were close to the control group. The hepatic inflammation scores also decreased markedly, but were still higher than those of control group. And the degree of hepatocyte steatosis was similar to that of model group.CONCLUSION: Sinai san decoction may ameliorate the hepatic inflammation of rats with steatohepatitis induced by small dosage of CCL4 combined with a fat-rich diet,but does not prevent the development of hepatocyte steatosis.
文摘An oil-in-water (O/W) solvent evaporation method was used to prepare biodegradable microspheresbased on poly(D,L-lactic acid) (PLA). Nifedipine, a hydrophobic drug, was chosen as a model molecule in the studyof drug entrapment and release. Effect of preparation conditions on the size, morphology, drug loading, and releaseprofiles of micropheres was investigated. Based on in vitro release experimental findings, a diffusion/dissolutionmodel was presented for quantitative description of the resulting release behaviors and drug release kinetics fromPLA microspheres analyzed. The mathematical models were used to predict the effect of microstructure on theresulting drug release. It provided an approach to determine the suitable structure parameters for microspheres toachieve desired drug release behaviors.

文摘AIM: To investigate the expression of multiple genes in Chinese jianpi herbal recipe Wei Chang An (WCA) in human gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901. METHODS: A human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line SGC-7902 grafted onto nude mice was used as the animal model. The mice were randomly divided into 3 groups, one control and the two representing experimental conditions. Animals in the two experimental groups received either WCA over a 34-d period or 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) over 6-d period starting at 8th d after grafting. Control animals received saline on an identical schedule. Animals were killed 41 d after being grafted. The expression profiles in paired WCA treated gastric cancer samples and the N.S. control samples were studied by using a cDNA array representing 14181 cDNA clusters. The alterations in gene expression levels were confirmed by Real-time Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). RESULTS: When compared with controls, the average tumor inhibitory rate in WCA group was 44.32% ± 5.67% and 5-FU 47.04% ± 22.33% (P 〈 0.01, respectively). The average labeling index (LI) for PCNA in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly decreased compared with the control group. Apoptotic index (AI) was significantly increased to 9.72% ± 4.52% using the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated deoxyuridine triphosphate fluorescence nick end labeling (TUNEL) method in WCA group compared with the controls 2.45% ± 2.37%. 5-FU group was also found to have a significantly increased AI compared with the controls. The expression of cleaved Caspase-3 in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly increased compared with the control group respectively. There were 45 different expressed sequence tags (ESTs) among the control sample pool and WCA sample pool. There were 24 ESTs up-regulated in WCA samples and 21 ESTs down-regulated. By using qPCR, the expression level of Stat3, rap2 interacting protein x (RIPX), regulator of differentiation 1 (ROD1) and Bcl-2 was lower in WCA group than that in control group respectively. By using SP immunohistochemical method the expression of Phospho-Stat3 (Tyr705) and Bcl-2 in WCA group and 5-FU group was significantly decreased compared with the control group respectively. CONCLUSION: WCA could inhibit gastric cancer cell SGC-7901 growth in vivo. WCA could induce gastric cancer cell apoptosis and suppress proliferation. Its mechanisms might be involved in the down-regulation of Star3, RIPX, ROD1 and Bcl-2 gene.
