Baicalin-loaded PEGylated lipid nanoparticles: characterization,pharmacokinetics, and protective effects on acute myocardial ischemia in rats

Context: Baicalin has many pharmacological activities, including protective function against myocardial ischemia by antioxidant effects and free radical scavenging activity. However, its rapid elimination half-life in plasma and poor water solubility limits its clinical efficacy.

Objective: Novel baicalin-loaded PEGylated nanostructured lipid carriers (BN-PEG-NLC) were developed to improve bioavailability of BN, to prolong retention time in vivo and to enhance its protective effect.

Methods: In this study, BN-PEG-NLC were prepared by the emulsion-evaporation and low temperature-solidification method using a mixture of glycerol monostearate and polyethylene glycol monostearate as solid lipids, and oleic acid as the liquid lipid. The physicochemical properties of NLC were characterized. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic behaviors of BN-PEG-NLC or BN-NLC were evaluated in acute MI rats.

Results and discussion: The particle size, zeta potential, and entrapment efficiency for BN-PEG-NLC were observed as 83.9?nm, ?32.1?mV, and 83.5%, respectively. The release profiles of BN from both BN-PEG-NLC and BN-NLC were fitted to the Ritger–Peppas modal, which presented burst release initially and prolonged release afterwards. Pharmacokinetics results indicated that BN-PEG-NLC exhibited a 7.2-fold increase in AUC in comparison to BN solution, while a 3-fold increase in comparison to BN-NLC. Biodistribution results revealed that BN-PEG-NLC exhibited higher heart drug concentration compared with BN-NLC as well as BN solution. In the present study, BN-PEG-NLC significantly ameliorated infarct size.

Conclusion: The results of the present study imply that PEG-NLC could be the biocompatible carriers for heart-targeted drug delivery to improve myocardial ischemia.     

Anomalous Origin of the Left Coronary Artery from the Pulmonary Artery: Diagnoses and Surgical Results in 12 Pediatric Patients

Anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) is a rare congenital condition. It responds well to early diagnosis and treatment, but otherwise the prognosis is poor. We present our case series of 12 patients (mean age, 2 ± 2.58 yr; age range, 2 mo–8 yr), emphasizing the diagnostic process and discussing our surgical results. The diagnosis of ALCAPA should be suspected in infants who have dilated cardiomyopathy with electrocardiographic changes that suggest ischemia, and in older children who have isolated mitral regurgitation. When clinical suspicion is high, the results of 2-dimensional echocardiography combined with color-flow Doppler studies in expert hands can establish the diagnosis, thus avoiding angiography in critically ill infants. The treatment of choice in our patients was transfer and reimplantation of the left coronary artery onto the ascending aorta. There were 2 deaths: both were infants in extremis who underwent emergency surgery. An older child with severe ventricular dysfunction was given mechanical ventricular assistance and then heart transplantation. As of this report, all 10 survivors remained well and asymptomatic.     

Maximizing Breast Cancer Therapy with Awareness of Potential Treatment-Related Blood Disorders

In this review we summarize the impact of the various modalities of breast cancer therapy coupled with intrinsic patient factors on incidence of subsequent treatment-induced myelodysplasia and acute myelogenous leukemia (t-MDS/AML). It is clear that risk is increased for patients treated with radiation and chemotherapy at younger ages. Radiation is associated with modest risk, whereas chemotherapy, particularly the combination of an alkylating agent and an anthracycline, carries higher risk and radiation and chemotherapy combined increase the risk markedly. Recently, treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), but not pegylated G-CSF, has been identified as a factor associated with increased t-MDS/AML risk. Two newly identified associations may link homologous DNA repair gene deficiency and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor treatment to increased t-MDS/AML risk. When predisposing factors, such as young age, are combined with an increasing number of potentially leukemogenic treatments that may not confer large risk singly, the risk of t-MDS/AML appears to increase. Patient and treatment factors combine to form a biological cascade that can trigger a myelodysplastic event. Patients with breast cancer are often exposed to many of these risk factors in the course of their treatment, and triple-negative patients, who are often younger and/or BRCA positive, are often exposed to all of them. It is important going forward to identify effective therapies without these adverse associated effects and choose existing therapies that minimize the risk of t-MDS/AML without sacrificing therapeutic gain.

Implications for Practice

Breast cancer is far more curable than in the past but requires multimodality treatment. Great care must be taken to use the least leukemogenic treatment programs that do not sacrifice efficacy. Elimination of radiation and anthracycline/alkylating agent regimens will be helpful where possible, particularly in younger patients and possibly those with homologous repair deficiency (HRD). Use of colony-stimulating factors should be limited to those who truly require them for safe chemotherapy administration. Further study of a possible leukemogenic association with HRD and the various forms of colony-stimulating factors is badly needed.

     

鼻塞式同步间歇正压通气(NIPPV)联合布地奈德雾化治疗新生儿急性呼吸窘迫综合征疾病的临床应用研究

糖尿病患者腹部手术围手术期的处理

糖尿病已成为全球威胁人类健康的三大慢性非传染性疾病之一。需要外科手术的患者占所有糖尿病患者的25%,其围手术期病死率、并发症以及住院时间较正常人明显增加,因此对于糖尿病患者围手术期的处理方案显得尤为重要。但目前对于围手术期血糖控制范围仍众说纷纭,综合各研究结论,笔者认为将血糖控制在7.8~10 mmol/L是一个较为理想的范围。在患者术前、术中及术后应联合多学科制定各项相应的治疗方案,围手术期尤为注意避免患者发生低血糖和电解质紊乱的发生。也亟待后续大规模的随机对照试验进一步确定有效的血糖控制目标。
