Effect of Renal Impairment on the Pharmacokinetics and Tolerability of Tiagabine

Summary: Purpose: We wished to determine the effect of renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics and tolerability of the new antiepileptic drug tiagabine (TGB).
Methods: We assessed TGB pharmacokinetics and tolerability in 25 subjects with various degrees of renal function (based on creatinine clearance, n = 4–6 per group) from healthy (group I) to requiring hemodialysis (group V) in a single and multiple dose (every 12h), one-period (groups I-IV) or a single dose, two-period (group V) study (4-mg oral doses of TGB · HCl). Blood samples were collected after the first dose (both periods for group V) and after the last dose on day 5 (groups I-IV). TGB plasma concentrations and plasma protein binding were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ultrafiltration, respectively.
Results: TGB was well tolerated by all study subjects. The pharmacokinetics of TGB were similar in all subjects; no pharmacokinetic parameter (based on either total or unbound concentrations) was statistically correlated with creatinine clearance. For total TGB in plasma, single-dose mean values of the maximum plasma concentration, clearance, and half-life (t1/2) ranged from 52 to 108 ng/ml, from 7.14 to 11.02 I/h, and from 6.4 to 8.4 h, respectively.
Conclusions: TGB pharmacokinetics and tolerability were independent of renal function; therefore, dosage adjustment is unnecessary for epilepsy patients with renal impairment.     

Fluorescence spectroscopy monitoring of the conformational restraint of formaldehyde- and glutaraldehyde- treated infectious bursal disease virus proteins

Interaction of native proteinaceous antigens during the recognition and the effector phases of an immune response leads to antigenic conformational modifications which may elicit additional specific immune response. Protein cross-linking and conformation restraining formaldehyde and glutaraldehyde have been extensively used in vaccine preparation, but the relative efficiencies of conformational restraint at concentrations similar to those used in vaccine preparation have not been investigated. We addressed this issue by comparing the extent of conformational restraint of virus proteins in formaldehyde- and glutaraldehyde-treated virus preparations by monitoring the fluorescence intensities (I₃₂₀) of infectious bursal disease virus preparations (IBDV) and those of untreated virus during thermal denaturation. Formaldehyde was found to cause no detectable conformational restraint at 0.01% and only very weak restraint at 1%, while glutaraldehyde caused very strong conformational restraint at 0.01%. It is proposed how conformational restraint of proteinaceous antigens may alter ensuing immunity.

SNHG6靶向miR-101/TGFBR1促进AMI小鼠左心室心肌纤维化

目的探讨SNHG6对急性心肌梗死(AMI)小鼠左心室心肌的影响。 方法将30只雄性C57/BL6小鼠构建成AMI小鼠后随机均分为AMI组、AMI+SNHG6组、AMI+miR-101-3p组、AMI+SNHG6+miR-101-3p组、AMI+miR-101-3p+TGFBR1组,另设正常小鼠6只为假手术组。qRT-PCR检测AMI小鼠SNHG6、miR-101-3p表达水平。心脏彩超检测各组小鼠左室射血分数(LVEF);马松和天狼星红染色法以及免疫组化分析各组小鼠左心室心肌纤维化变化。将H9C2细胞株分为阴性对照组(转染空质粒)、SNHG6组(转染质粒SNHG6)、miR-101-3p组(转染质粒miR-101-3p)。Western blotting检测各组TGFBR1蛋白表达;采用双荧光素酶报告基因法预测并验证SNHG6/miR-101-3p/TGFBR1荧光素酶活性及调控机制。 结果AMI小鼠较假手术组SNHG6表达显著增加,miR-101-3p降低(P＜0.05)。与AMI组比较,AMI+SNHG6组小鼠LVEF降低,心肌纤维化程度加重(P＜0.05);AMI+miR-101-3p组LVEF升高,心肌纤维化程度减轻(P＜0.05)。AMI+SNHG6+miR-101-3p组较AMI+SNHG6组LVEF升高、心肌纤维化程度减轻(P＜0.05),而AMI+miR-101-3p+TGFBR1组较AMI+miR-101-3p组LVEF降低、心肌纤维化程度加重(P＜0.05)。双荧光素酶报告基因法验证显示,miR-101-3p组SNHG6、TGFBR1野生型质粒的荧光素酶活性较阴性对照组明显降低(P＜0.05)。 结论SNHG6抑制miR-101-3p上调TGFBR1加重AMI小鼠左心室心肌纤维化。     

阴部神经相关选穴对针灸治疗压力性尿失禁疗效影响的Meta分析

压力性尿失禁（stress urinary incontinence,SUI）是指喷嚏、咳嗽、大笑或运动等腹压增高而无逼尿肌收缩的情况下出现的不自主漏尿,该病严重影响患者生活质量及身心健康。中国成年女性SUI的患病率约18.9%,在50~59岁年龄段可高达28.0%。我国2017年女性压力性尿失禁治疗指南推荐的保守治疗主要包括生活方式干预（行为治疗）、盆底肌训练（pelvic floor muscle training, PFMT）、盆底肌生物反馈、电刺激治疗、药物治疗及抗尿失禁子宫托等。针灸治疗尿失禁临床具有良好的效应,但由于缺乏高质量临床研究证据,尚未被指南推荐。因此,我们对相关文献进行检索,发现近5年针灸治疗SUI的随机对照研究数量明显增加,次髎、中髎、会阳、骶四穴、秩边等尾骶部腧穴在临床上的运用日益受到关注,考虑可能与针刺刺激阴部神经丛,从而调节盆底肌肌力、改善尿控能力效应有关。基于此,我们希望对针灸治疗SUI的系统评价进行更新,并评价不同针灸取穴方案对SUI疗效的影响,以期为SUI的临床治疗提供参考意见。     

A study on the literature on sheng mai powder of past dynasties

Our study reveals that the earliest historical records of Sheng Mai Powder are found in "Yixue qiyuan" ("Origins of Medicine"), a medical book written by Zhang Yuansu and published in the beginning of 1186, 45 years earlier than the latest edition of "Neiwai shangbian huolun" ("Treaties on the identification of Internal Diseases and External Damages"), written by Li Gao in 1231. The study also suggests that the assertion of Sheng Mai Powder to be inaugurated by Sun Simiao is groundless.

Technical quality evaluation of EEG recording based on electroencephalographers' knowledge

The aim of this study is to develop a technical quality evaluation system of electroencephalogram (EEG) recording in order to acquire technically satisfactory EEG records, which may contribute to the accuracy improvement of EEG interpretation. In our developed system, the evaluation of EEG recording comprises the detection of technical artifacts and physiological status, which indicates the recording status objectively. In addition, the caution signals to users are generated in the system according to the undesired status detected. The information displayed to users includes the updated EEG records and instant evaluation results. Two examples of evaluation results are introduced in this paper, illustrating unsatisfactory records and artifact free records, respectively. The experimental results are proposed to verify the effectiveness of the technical quality evaluation of EEG recording. The implementation of the technical quality evaluation of EEG recording is helpful to acquire technically satisfactory EEG records, which may improve the accuracy of results in both the visual and the automatic EEG interpretation, and ease the laborious work of EEG technicians in the recording progress.     

In-vitro maturation of human germinal vesicle stage oocytes: role of cumulus cells and epidermal growth factor in the culture medium

In-vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes is a promising technique to reduce the costs and avert the side-effects of gonadotrophin stimulation for in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The pregnancy rates from oocytes matured in vitro are much lower than those of in-vivo stimulation cycles indicating that optimization of IVM remains a challenge. Therefore, we investigated the effect of supplementation of the medium with gonadotrophins, oestradiol and epidermal growth factor (EGF) and the effect of retaining or removing the cumulus cells on nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of immature oocytes. Human germinal vesicle (GV) oocytes obtained after gonadotrophin stimulation for intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) were cultured in a complex defined medium either supplemented with gonadotrophins, oestradiol and physiological concentrations of EGF (2 ng/ml) or gonadotrophins and oestradiol alone. The cumulus cells were either removed or kept intact. In GV stage oocytes cultured without cumulus (group I) significantly more oocytes reached the metaphase II (MII) stage at 30 h in media supplemented with EGF (64.3 versus 33.9%, P < 0.003). For oocytes cultured with intact cumulus (group II), more oocytes reached MII at 30 h than in group I, but there was no difference in medium with or without EGF supplementation (81.8 and 79.8% respectively). Cytoplasmic maturation of MII oocytes was judged from their capability to activate and fertilize after ICSI. In group I, the rates of activation and normal fertilization were similar. However, in group II, significantly more oocytes underwent normal fertilization in the EGF-supplemented than the unsupplemented group (71.7 versus 45.6%, P < 0.05). The cleavage rates of the fertilized oocytes were similar in the sibling oocyte subgroups cultured with or without EGF supplementation, but the overall cleavage rates were higher in cumulus-intact compared to cumulus-denuded oocytes (88.9 versus 47.8%, P < 0.001). Thus, supplementation of the maturation medium with EGF and maintenance of the cumulus during culture improve the nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation of human oocytes in vitro.
