The crystal is triclinic,Pspace group with the cell parameters:a=1.2385(6),b=1.2385(6),c=0.9421(5) nm.α=91.69(4)°,β=98.49(4)°,γ=99.16(5)°,Z=2,V=1.436 nm^3.The structure was refined to R value of 0.0866.Each Nd atom is connected with other two Nd atoms by two bidentate and two tridentate carboxyl groups to form a linear polymer.The Nd atom is further coordinated by a chelating carboxyl and two ethanol molecules.So the central atom is nine-coordinated with a distorted monocapped square-antiprism geometry.The infrared spectra and the thermal analysis of the complexes were also studied.展开更多

However, whether they influence eosinophilic airway inflammation-associated cough remains unclear. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of selective phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor SB207499 on cough response and airway inflammation in guinea pigs sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin. METHODS: Forty sensitized guinea pigs were randomly divided into four groups: control (n = 10), challenge (n = 10), SB207499 (n = 10) and aminophylline (n = 10), then challenged with aerosol of 1% ovalbumin or saline. Two hours later, animals were intraperitoneally injected with either saline, 25 mg/kg of SB207499 or aminophylline. At the 24th hour, the injection was repeated with 2.5 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg SB207499 or aminophylline, then cough response to inhaled capsaicin and airway responsiveness to methacholine inducing a 150% of the peak airway pressure to the baseline (PC150) was measured. Finally, total cell number and differentials in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were analysed. RESULTS: The cough frequency per 3 minutes and PC150 in the challenge group were (22 +/- 4) times/3 minutes and (198 +/- 54) microg/ml, which were significantly different from (6 +/- 2) times/3 minutes and (691 +/- 81) microg/ml in the control group (P展开更多
