Development of cyclosporin A-loaded hyaluronic microsphere with enhanced oral bioavailability

To develop a hyaluronic microsphere with the improved oral bioavailability of poorly water-soluble cyclosporin A (CsA), the microspheres were prepared with varying ratios of sodium hyaluronate (HA)/sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)/CsA using a spray-drying technique. The effects of HA and SLS on the dissolution and solubility of CsA in microspheres were investigated. The CsA-microsphere prepared with HA/SLS/CsA at the ratio of 4/2/1 gave the highest solubility and dissolution rate of CsA among those formulae tested. As solubility and dissolution rate of CsA were increased about 17- and 2-fold compared to CsA powder, respectively, this CsA-microsphere was selected as an optimal formula for oral delivery in rats. The CsA-microsphere and Sandimmun neoral sol gave significantly higher blood levels compared with CsA powder alone. Moreover, the AUC, T(max) and C(max) values of CsA in CsA-microsphere were not significantly different from those in Sandimmun neoral sol in rats, indicating that CsA-microsphere was bioequivalent to the commercial product in rats. Our results demonstrated that the CsA-microsphere prepared with HA and SLS, with improved bioavailability of CsA, might have been useful to deliver a poorly water-soluble CsA.     

Unusual morphologic features of low‐grade endometrial stromal sarcoma: A case report

BackgroundEndometrial stromal tumours are uncommon tumours of the uterus. They mainly occur in perimenopausal women. Tumours with typical clinicopathological features do not usually pose diagnostic problems. However, rare clinicopathological features can occur, and clinicians without significant experience may have difficulty diagnosing these tumours and managing these patients.MethodsHerein, we report a case of endometrial stromal sarcoma that occurred in a 25‐year‐old woman. The pathological features, immunophenotype, treatment and prognosis were discussed.ResultsThe tumour revealed morphological heterogeneity, and there were similar proliferative‐type endometrial stromal cells, an extensive amount of mature adipose tissue, and prominent rhabdomyoblastic and smooth muscle cells. Histopathological and immunohistochemical studies confirmed low‐grade endometrial stromal sarcoma with smooth muscle, adipocytic and rhabdomyoblastic differentiation (approximately 60% were differentiated tissues). The final treatment of the tumour was total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo‐oophorectomy. There was no evidence of recurrence for 109 months postoperatively.ConclusionsWe found that low‐grade endometrial stromal tumours with extensive adipocytic and prominent rhabdomyoblastic differentiation are misdiagnosed because they are infrequent. They must be differentiated from rhabdomyosarcoma with accurate identification of adipocytes, and long‐term follow‐up is needed.

Identification and characterization of antioxidants from Sophora flavescens

The objectives of this study were to investigate the radical-scavenging activity and protective potential of Sophora flavescens from oxidative damage by the radical generator 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AAPH) in renal epithelial LLC-PK(1) cells and to identify the active components using the bioassay-linked fractionation method. The MeOH extract and fractions of CH(2)Cl(2), BuOH, and H(2)O from S. flavescens showed 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging effects in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.01),whereas only the BuOH and CH(2)Cl(2) fractions showed protective effects against LLC-PK(1) cellular damage induced by AAPH in a dose-dependent manner (p<0.01). In particular, the BuOH fraction had the most effective (p<0.05) antioxidative capacity. Employing a bioassay-linked HPLC/MS method, the active constituents from the BuOH fraction of S. flavescens were isolated and characterized as sophoraflavanone G and kurarinone with potent antioxidant effects against the DPPH radical, with IC(50) values of 5.26 and 7.73 microg/ml, respectively. Moreover, the compounds dose dependently recovered cell viability decreased by AAPH treatment (p<0.01), suggesting their protective roles against cellular oxidative damage. The results of this study suggest that S. flavescens has excellent antioxidative and kidney-protective potential and that flavonoids from S. flavescens, i.e., sophoraflavanone G and kurarinone, are the active constituents.

目的:观察卵磷脂络合碘与复方血栓通胶囊在治疗不同病程玻璃体混浊时的疗效及其对比。方法:发病时间不等的玻璃体混浊患者随机分配接受卵磷脂络合碘或复方血栓通胶囊治疗。治疗前及治疗30,60d后分别行裂隙灯、眼底镜等检查,观察玻璃体混浊情况和视力变化,并评定混浊等级。结果:治疗30d后,新发组和短期组血栓通胶囊治疗有效率均显著低于卵磷脂络合碘治疗组(P<0.05);治疗60d后,陈旧组经血栓通治疗有效率显著高于卵磷脂络合碘治疗组(P<0.05),且各组总有效率均显著高于治疗30d的有效率(P<0.05)。长期组、陈旧组与新发组相比,经两种药物治疗后的总有效率均明显降低(P<0.01)。结论:卵磷脂络合碘对发病时间较短的玻璃体混浊治疗效果优于复方血栓通胶囊,而复方血栓通胶囊治疗慢性陈旧性玻璃体混浊效果理想。对玻璃体混浊一经诊断尽早施治,并适当延长治疗时间,有助于提高治疗效果。     

Cornuside Is a Potential Agent against Alzheimer’s Disease via Orchestration of Reactive Astrocytes

Cornuside is an iridoid glycoside from Cornus officinalis, with the activities of anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-mitochondrial dysfunction, and neuroprotection. In the present research, a triple-transgenic mice model of AD (3 × Tg-AD) was used to explore the beneficial actions and potential mechanism of cornuside on the memory deficits. We found that cornuside prominently alleviated neuronal injuries, reduced amyloid plaque pathology, inhibited Tau phosphorylation, and repaired synaptic damage. Additionally, cornuside lowered the release of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and nitric oxide (NO), lowered the level of malondialdehyde (MDA), and increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the level of glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px). Cornuside also significantly reduced the activation of astrocytes and modulated A1/A2 phenotypes by the AKT/Nrf2/NF-κB signaling pathway. We further confirmed that LY294002 and Nrf2 silencing could block the cornuside-mediated phenotypic switch of C6 cells induced by microglia conditioned medium (MCM) in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), which indicated that the effects of cornuside in astrocyte activation are dependent on AKT/Nrf2/NF-κB signaling. In conclusion, cornuside may regulate the phenotypic conversion of astrocytes, inhibit neuroinflammation and oxidative stress, improve synaptic plasticity, and alleviate cognitive impairment in mice through the AKT/Nrf2/NF-κB axis. Our present work provides an experimental foundation for further research and development of cornuside as a candidate drug for AD management.
