Comparison of reg I and reg III levels during acute pancreatitis in the rat

OBJECTIVE: To study alterations of serum levels of the pancreatic reg family of proteins in two models of acute pancreatitis. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA: The pancreatic reg family of proteins is expressed in the acinar pancreas. Reg I (pancreatic stone protein, PSP) and reg III (pancreatitis-associated protein, PAP) are induced after the onset of acute pancreatitis, and both have been proposed as potential markers of pancreatitis. METHODS: Pancreatitis was induced in rats by either retrograde infusion of sodium taurocholate or by direct trauma. Serum samples were obtained daily for 4 days after the procedure, and the animals were then killed. Twelve animals underwent sham procedure and six underwent daily analysis without surgery. Levels of reg I/PSP and reg III/PAP were estimated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS: Reg III/PAP levels increased significantly the first day after induction of both types of pancreatitis and rapidly returned to baseline in all survivors. Even animals who received retrograde infusion of saline showed a mild increase in reg III/PAP on the first day, whereas control animals that did not undergo surgery showed no variations. Reg I/PSP serum levels remained unchanged throughout all experimental periods. Postinjury reg III/PAP levels significantly correlated with severity of the pancreatic injury and animal survival; reg I/PSP levels did not. CONCLUSION: After induction of pancreatitis, serum levels of reg I and III protein differ significantly. Reg III/PAP levels are a sensitive marker of pancreatic injury and early in the disease may be a useful prognostic indicator for disease severity.     

AF系统内固定治疗胸腰椎骨折

目的分析应用AF钉内固定治疗胸腰椎骨折的临床疗效。方法自1999年6月至2005年1月,21例胸腰椎骨折病人骨折复位AF钉内固定,其中15例椎板减压,7例骨移植,5例未给予减压。结果全部病人术后随诊4~17个月,平均11个月。伤椎前缘高度从50%(30%~70%)恢复至正常的93%(90%~95%),水平移位全部恢复。Cobb’s角由术前的15°恢复到6.5°。15例开放椎管减压病例,由术前椎管受压面积达60%降至10%。脊髓神经的恢复依照Frankel分级标准都有1~2级改善。结论应用AF钉复位内固定治疗胸腰椎骨折,创伤小,操作简单,有利于恢复神经功能、伤椎高度及生理曲度。

Influence of hydroxyethylcellulose on the drug release properties of theophylline pellets coated with Eudragit RS 30 D.

The objective of this study was to investigate the influence of a hydrophilic polymer, hydroxyethylcellulose (HEC), on the release properties of theophylline from pellets coated with Eudragit RS 30 D, and the physicochemical properties of Eudragit RS 30 D cast films. The release rate of theophylline from Eudragit RS 30 D coated pellets decreased during storage at 25 degrees C/60% RH due to the further coalescence of colloidal acrylic particles. In addition, water-vapor permeability and tensile strength of Eudragit RS 30 D cast film decreased after 1-month storage at 25 degrees C/60% RH. The presence of 10% hydroxyethylcellulose in the coating formulation was shown to stabilize the drug release rate from coated pellets, the water-vapor permeability and the tensile strength of free films. Atomic force microscopy and scanning electronic microscopy were used to demonstrate that the HEC was immiscible with Eudragit RS 30 D in the cast films. The stabilization effect of HEC was investigated and determined to be due to the formation of an incompatible phase between the latex particles which impaired further coalescence of the colloidal acrylic particles.
