模拟调强技术照射鼻咽低分化鳞癌细胞的生物效应机制研究

Objective To study the altered radiobiological effect of simulative intensity-modulated radiotherapy (SIMR) in cultured human nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells and the related mechanism. Methods Single cell suspension of exponentially growing CNE-2 cells, a poor differentiated NPC cell line, was seeded and cultured for 12 hours, then the cells were irradiated in two different models by 6 MV X-ray beams at 3 Gy/min. In single fraction irradiation (SFR) model, cells were irradiated a single fraction of 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 Gy within 0 to 3 minutes. In S1MR model, cells were irradiated 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 Gy in 5 frac-tions with interval of 8.0-8.5 minutes between. Clonogenic assay was performed to determine the radiosen-sitivity. Cellular apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry. RT-PCR was used to detect mRNA expressions of Bax and Bcl-2, Respectively. Results Compared with SFR group, the survival fraction in SIMR group was higher at all the dose levels. The values of α, β, D0 and Dq were higher in SIMR group than in SFR group. At dose levels of 2 Gy, 4 Gy and 6 Gy, The early and late apoptotic cells in SIMR group were lower than in SFR group (21.20%: 15.89%, F=18.51, P=0.020;13.00%: 10.20, F=15.67, P=0.040).The mRNA expression of Bax was upregulated in a dose-dependent manner in the both groups. Compared with SFR group, the mRNA expression of Bax in SIMR group was lower at all the dose levels (Mean value of 76.75% : 62.50%, F =36.57, P =0.000). Bcl-2 mRNA expression at every dose level had no significant difference between the two groups (Mean value of 29.25% : 29.75%, F=0.74, P=0.800). Conclusions Prolonged delivery time in SIMR model can decrease the radiobiological effects.

Quantitative evaluation of adhesive properties and drug-adhesive interactions for transdermal drug delivery formulations using linear solvation energy relationships.

This paper describes the results of the application of linear solvation energy relationships (LSERs) to quantitatively characterize the properties of adhesives and to evaluate the degree of drug-adhesive interaction in transdermal drug delivery formulations. Probe solutions were prepared in acetonitrile (ACN) for a set of probe compounds with different physicochemical properties, and were used to swell the adhesives for subsequent probe molecule-adhesive interactions. The degree of the interactions was measured by the 'sorbed' amount of probe molecules. Based on LSERs, the 'sorbed' amounts were linearly correlated with their properties. The corresponding coefficients reflect the differential interactions of these molecules with the adhesive and ACN, and are quantitative indications of the adhesive properties. Two different transdermal acrylate adhesives (isooctyl acrylate/acrylamide/vinyl acetate in the weight ratios of 75/5/20 and isooctyl acrylate/2-hydroxyethyl acrylate/vinyl acetate in the weight ratios of 58/20/18) were selected for the evaluation of the methodology. It is concluded that the first adhesive is more basic and hydrophobic, which is consistent with the use of acrylamide monomer and significant amount of isooctyl acrylate. The second adhesive is more acidic and polarizable due to a relatively high amount of the 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate. Additionally, the 'sorbed' amount can be regarded as an interaction parameter or index between a drug molecule and the adhesive. Finally, this parameter is expected to correlate with the thermodynamic properties of transdermal formulations such as drug solubility, diffusion coefficient, release rate, and maybe skin permeation rate.

高等医学院校医学化学教材改革的几点思考

医学的发展已进入分子水平，医学生必须具有扎实的化学基础才能适应专业学习及临床、科研工作的需要。现行医学化学教材大多沿用几十年前的模式，部分内容陈旧滞后，实用性不强。面对现实，改革势在必行。我们认为，突出重点、注重实用、体现医学特色应作为改革的方向。     

持续压力超负荷对兔左心室细胞凋亡的影响

OBJECTIVE: To study the effect of chronic pressure overload on the apoptosis of the left ventricle myocytes in rabbits. METHODS: Rabbit models of chronic pressure overload-induced heart failure were prepared in which dynamic changes of apoptotic myocytes in the left ventricle were observed by way of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL) assay. RESULTS: Only a few apoptotic cells was observed in the sham-operated group, while in the experimental group, the apoptotic left ventricle myocytes significantly increased after operation, presenting a peak level between day 3 and day 7. Seven days after the operation, the apoptotic myocytes began to decrease and till day 14, the apoptotic cell number had been smaller than that measured on day 1. When signs of heart failure set in, the apoptotic myocytes were again increased (P<0.001). CONCLUSION: During chronic pressure overload, myocyte apoptosis in the left ventricle is elevated at the early stages and undulates subsequently, with the peak occurring before hypertrophy is obvious.
