The purpose of this study was to develop a fibrin-targeted nanoparticle （NP） drug delivery system for thrombosis combination therapy. We conjugated rtPA to poly（ethylene glycol）- poly（ε-caprolactone） （PEG-PCL） nanoparticles （rtPA-NP） and investigated its physicochemical characteristics such as particle size, zeta potential, enzyme activity of conjugated rtPA and its storage stability at 4℃. The thrombolytic activity of rtPA-NP was evaluated in vitro and in vivo as well as the half-life of rtPA-NP, the properties to fibrin targeting and its influences on systemic hemostasis in vivo. The results showed that rtPA-NP equivalent to 10% of a typical dose of rtPA could dissolve fibrin clots and were demonstrated to have a neuroprotective effect after focal cerebral ischemia as evidenced by decreased infarct volume and improved neurological deficit （P〈0.001）. RtPA-NP did not influence the in vivo hemostasis or coagulation system. The half-life of conjugated rtPA was shown to be approximately 18 times longer than that of free rtPA. These experiments suggested that rtPA-conjugated PEG-PCL nanoparticles might be a promising fibrin-targeted delivery system for a combination treatment of thrombosis.展开更多

Factors affecting clinical outcomes have not been well understood yet, so this retrospective case-control study aimed to investigate factors that may influence clinical outcomes of acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous rt-PA. Methods One hundred and one patients with acute ischemic stroke who received intravenous rt-PA thrombolysis within 4.5 hours from disease onset were included. Patients were divided into good or poor outcome group according to modified Rankin Scale （mRS） score, good outcome group： mRS score of 0-1; poor outcome group： mRS of 2-6. Stroke characteristics were compared between the two groups. Factors for stroke outcomes were analyzed via univariate analysis and Logistic regression. Results Of the 101 patients studied, patients in good outcome group （n=55） were significantly younger than patients in poor outcome group （n=46, （62.82±14.25） vs. （68.81±9.85） years, P=0.029）. Good outcome group had fewer patients with diabetic history （9.09% vs. 28.26%, P=0.012）, fewer patients with leukoaraiosis （7.27% vs. 28.26%, P=-0.005） and presented with lower blood glucose level （（5.72±1.76） vs. （6.72±1.32） mmol/L, P=0.012）, lower systolic blood pressure level （（135.45±19.36） vs. （148.78±19.39） mmHg, P=0.003）, lower baseline NIHSS score （12.02±5.26 vs. 15.78±4.98, P=0.002） and shorter onset-to-treatment time （OTT） （（2.38±1.21） vs. （2.57±1.03） hours, P=0.044） than poor outcome group. Logistic regression analysis showed that absence of diabetic history （odds ratio （OR） 0.968 （95% CI 0.941-0.996））, absence of leukoaraiosis （OR 0.835 （95% C/0.712-0.980））, lower baseline NIHSS score （OR 0.885 （95% Cl 0.793- 0.989））, lower pre-thrombolysis systolic blood pressure （OR 0.962 （95% CI 0.929-0.997））, and lower blood glucose level （OR 0.699 （95% Cl 0.491-0.994）） before thrombolysis were significantly associated with better outcome. Conclusion Patients with no history of diabetes, no leukoaraiosis, low blood glucose level, low systolic blood pressure level and low baseline NIHSS score before thrombolvsis have a better outcome.展开更多

We reviewed the medical records of ICH patients undergoing MIS between October 2011 and July 2013. A volumetric analysis was done to assess the change in PHE and ICH volumes at pre-MIS （T1）, post-MIS （T2） and day 10-16 （T3） following diagnostic computed tomographic scans （To）. Forty-three patients aged 52.8±11.1 years with （n=30） or without rt-PA （n=13） were enrolled from our institutional ICH database. The median rt-PA dose was 1.5 （1） mg, with a maximum dose of 4.0 mg. The ratio of clot evacuation was significantly increased by intraclot rt-PA as compared with controls （77.9%±20.4% vs. 64%±15%; P=0.046）. From TI to T2, reduction in PHE volume was strongly associ- ated with the percentage of clot evacuation （p=0.34; P=-0.027）. In addition, PHE volume was positively correlated with residual ICH volume at the same day （p ranging from 0.39-0.56, P〈0.01）. There was no correlation between the cumulative dose of rt-PA and early （T2） PHE volume （p=0.24; P=0.12） or de- layed （T3） PHE volume （p=0.19; P=0.16）. The 30-day mortality was zero in this cohort. In the selected cohort of ICH patients treated with MIS, intraclot rt-PA accelerated clot removal and had no effects on PHE formation. MIS aspiration and low dose of rt-PA seemed to be feasible to reduce the 30-day mor- tality in patients with severe ICH. A large, randomized study addressing dose titration and long-term outcome is needed.展开更多
