Sofosbuvir-velpatasvir en pacientes mexicanos con hepatitis C: una revisión retrospectiva

IntroductionThe sofosbuvir-velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) combination is a direct-acting antiviral therapy that is authorized and available in Mexico, making the performance of a real-world multicenter study that evaluates the sustained virologic response at 12 weeks post-treatment a relevant undertaking.MethodsA retrospective review of the case records of 241 patients seen at 20 hospitals in Mexico was conducted to assess hepatitis C treatment with the SOF/VEL combination (n = 231) and the sofosbuvir/velpatasvir/ribavirin (SOF/VEL/RBV) combination (n = 10). The primary efficacy endpoint was the percentage of patients that achieved SVR at 12 weeks after the end of treatment.ResultsOverall SVR was 98.8% (95% CI 97.35-100%). Only three patients did not achieve SVR, two of whom had cirrhosis and a history of previous treatment with peg-IFN. Of the subgroups analyzed, all the patients with HIV coinfection, three patients with genotype 3, and the patients treated with the SOF/VEL/RBV combination achieved SVR. The subgroups with the lower success rates were patients that were treatment-experienced (96.8%) and patients with F1 fibrosis (95.5%). The most frequent adverse events were fatigue, headache, and insomnia. No serious adverse events were reported.ConclusionTreatments with SOF/VEL and SOF/VEL/RBV were highly safe and effective, results coinciding with those of other international real-world studies.     

丹蛭降糖胶囊通过mTOR/S6K1信号通路对糖尿病肾病大鼠的干预作用研究

目的研究丹蛭降糖胶囊对糖尿病肾病大鼠的肾脏病理改变和足细胞自噬水平的影响,初步探讨其相应的作用机制。方法选取GK大鼠40只,采用醋酸脱氧皮质酮-盐皮下注射联合高脂饲料喂养诱导糖尿病肾病模型。造模成功后随机分为模型组、丹蛭降糖胶囊低剂量组[0.54 g/(kg·d)]、高剂量组[1.08 g/(kg·d)]、缬沙坦组[10 mg/(kg·d)],每组10只。另选取10只同周龄正常Wistar大鼠作为正常组。模型组和正常组给予等容积生理盐水。连续灌胃10周后检测空腹血糖(FBG)、血肌酐(SCr)、尿素氮(BUN)和尿微量蛋白(U-mAlb)。Western Blot检测肾小球p-mTOR、p-S6K1、Beclin-1、LC3和Nephrin蛋白的表达,HE染色和PAS染色后于光镜下观察肾脏病理变化,电镜下观察各组亚细胞形态结构变化。结果与正常组比较,模型组FBG、SCr、BUN、U-mAlb水平升高(P<0.01);与模型组比较,丹蛭降糖胶囊低、高剂量组和缬沙坦组U-mAlb水平降低(P<0.01)。模型组可见肾小球基底膜增厚,系膜基质沉积,足细胞损伤,各用药组均有不同程度改善,丹蛭降糖胶囊高剂量组足细胞内有较多自噬体形成。与正常组比较,模型组p-mTOR、p-S6K1的表达增高,Nephrin、Beclin-1和LC3的表达水平降低(P<0.01);与模型组比较,各用药组p-mTOR、p-S6K1的表达下降,Nephrin、Beclin-1和LC3的表达增高(P<0.01)。丹蛭降糖胶囊高剂量组和缬沙坦组Beclin1、LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ水平较丹蛭降糖胶囊低剂量组升高(P<0.05)。结论丹蛭降糖胶囊具有减轻糖尿病肾病大鼠U-mAIb、足细胞损伤及相关肾脏病理改变的作用,其机制可能与抑制mTOR/S6K1信号通路进而提高足细胞的自噬活性有关。

Effects of 5-Hydroxytraptamine on Aggregation,Release Reaction and Mobilization of Cytosolic Free Calcium Concentration in Rabbit Normal and Washed Single Platelets

In rabbit platelet rich plasma (PRP), 5-hydroxytraptamine (5-HT,0.03～3μmol/L) induced decrease in light transmission (DLT) dose-de pendently with centralization, as revealed by electron microscopy. However, 5-HT did not induced platelet aggregation and release reaction. 5-HT-induced DLT was inhibited by methysergide (0.3～30μmol/L), indomethacin (0.3～10μmol/L) and PGE_1 (0.01～0.3μmol/L) in a dose-dependent manner, but not EGTA(0.3～3mmol/L). Collagen(Coll), arachidonic acid (AA), adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and a stable thromboxane A2 analoge(STA_2) also induced DLT before aggregation by themselves, which was also inhibited by PGE_1, but not inhibited by EGTA except for Coll However,Coll-, AA-, STA_2-and ADP-induced DLT were reduced by pretreatment of PRP with 5-HT dose-depen-dently. The duration of DLT by Coll and AA were decreased from 151.4±5.93 sec and 15(?)38±0.60sec to 45.44±4.04 sec and 9.00±1.25 sec respectively ((?)±s(?) P<0.01), but not by ADP and STA_2, 3μmol/L of ADP-and 0.3μmol/L of STA_2-induced aggregation which was not accompanied with release reaction were enhanced by 5-HT pretreatment, but in those (Coil 5μg/ml, AA 100～200μmol/L and STA_2 1～3 μmol/L) with release reaction, the amount of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)were suppressed significantly (P<0.001) by 5-HT pretreatment without the effect on the magnitude of aggregation, The mobilization of cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca~(2+)]i) was observed after 5-HT treatment in single washed platelet, the results indicated that the basic level of [Ca~(2+)] i was 64.78±3.24nmol/L and this level was increased dose-dependently and significantly at 30 sec after administration of 5-HT and the time of peak value of [Ca~(2+)] i was at 90～100 sec.The similar time courses of suppression of ATP released during aggregation, in cases of Coll(5μg/ml), AA (200μmol/L) and STA_2(3μmol/L), by 5-HT were also found in the present experiment.     

Recent Ⅳ-drug users with chronic hepatitis C can be efficiently treated with daily high dose induction therapy using consensus interferon:An open-label pilot study

INTRODUCTION Under physiological conditions, interferon-α (IFN-α) is a key cytokine produced by virtually all cells in the mammalian organism in response to a variety of bacterial and viral stimuli. In response to viral infection, IFN-α produced by the infected target cells induces a number of cellular genes involved in inhibition of viral replication. In addition, IFN-α is secreted by stimulated NK-cells and T-cells and exerts a multitude of immune stimulatory effects of innate a…

In vitro release of lectins by Phallusia mamillata hemocytes.

-Lactose specific lectins are released from Phallusia mamillata hemocytes during short-term cultures. The molecular weight of the subunits, the immunological cross-reaction and the sugar specificity suggest that the released lectins are similar to those isolated from the sonicated hemocytes. Because lectin release appears to take place independently of active protein synthesis, the possibility exists that lectins are pre-formed, stored in hemocytes and released when in vitro conditions stimulate the cells.
