Methods Ethological changes were detected through the formalin test; SP expressions in the hypothalamus and the spinal cord were evaluated with immunohistochemistry technology, and the morphological changes of nerve cells were observed by SEM. Results The frequency of licking foot changed when the rats were gavaged with different concentrations of ethanol among zero to two hours, the difference between two groups was statistical signifcant (Plt;0.05). The expression level of SP and the morphological changes of nerve cells in hypothalamus and spinal cord had relationship with the ethanol concentration. Conclusions Acute alcoholism could cause pain dysfunction in rats. The frequency of licking foot of rats is correlated to the role of the time closely. The expression intensity of SP in the hypothalamus and the spinal cord nerve cells are correlated to the concentration of ethanol closely.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the two means of field molluscicidal effect by two different snail control drugs--new plant snail control agent luo-wei (Tea-seed distilled saponins, TDS) and 50% wettable powder of niclosamide (WPN). MethodsSuch databases as CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were searched for controlled trials about TDS vs. WPN for the molluscicidal effect from their establishment to April 2014. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and assessed the methodological quality of included studies, and then meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.2 software. ResultsA total of 9 studies were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that:Snails mortality rate of TDS on 7 d was lower (RR=0.96, 95%CI 0.93 to 1.00, P=0.04) than WPN and no significant difference of the snails mortality rate on 1 d or 3 d between the two groups was found by means of immersion. Meanwhile, by means of spraying, there were no significant differences on the snails mortality rate on 1 d, 3 d, 7 d, 15 d between the two groups; densities of living snails on 15 d wasn't, either. Based on GRADE system, the evidence was at level B or C. ConclusionCompared with WPN, TDS has reached the requirements of the natural source twin-screw agent field evaluation. The molluscicidal effect of TDS is better, with its large stock and low price, it is worthy to do further popularization.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility of the chitosan-poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) double-walled microspheres for sustained release of bioactive nerve growth factor (NGF) in vitro.MethodsNGF loaded chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres were prepared by emulsion-ionic method with sodium tripolyphosphate (TPP) as an ionic cross-linker. The double-walled microspheres were cross-linked by different concentrations of TPP [1%, 3%, 10% (W/V)]. NGF loaded PLGA microspheres were also prepared. The outer and inner structures of double-walled microspheres were observed by light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy, respectively. The size and distribution of microspheres and fourier transform infra red spectroscopy (FT-IR) were analyzed. PLGA microspheres with NGF or chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres cross-linked by 1%, 3%, and 10%TPP concentration (set as groups A, B, C, and D respectively) were used to determine the degradation ratio of microspheres in vitro and the sustained release ratio of NGF in microspheres at different time points. The bioactivity of NGF (expressed as the percentage of PC12 cells with positive axonal elongation reaction) in the sustained release solution of chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres without NGF (set as group A1) was compared in groups B, C, and D.ResultsThe chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres showed relative rough and spherical surfaces without aggregation. Confocal laser scanning microscopy showed PLGA microspheres were evenly uniformly distributed in the chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres. The particle size of microspheres ranged from 18.5 to 42.7 μm. The results of FT-IR analysis showed ionic interaction between amino groups and phosphoric groups of chitosan in double-walled microspheres and TPP. In vitro degradation ratio analysis showed that the degradation ratio of double-walled microspheres in groups B, C, and D appeared faster in contrast to that in group A. In addition, the degradation ratio of double-walled microsphere in groups B, C, and D decreased when the TPP concentration increased. There were significant differences in the degradation ratio of each group (P<0.05). In vitro sustained release ratio of NGF showed that when compared with PLGA microspheres in group A, double-walled microspheres in groups B, C, and D released NGF at a relatively slow rate, and the sustained release ratio decreased with the increase of TPP concentration. Except for 84 days, there was significant difference in the sustained release ratio of NGF between groups B, C, and D (P<0.05). The bioactivity of NGF results showed that the percentage of PC12 cells with positive axonal elongation reaction in groups B, C, and D was significantly higher than that in group A1 (P<0.05). At 7 and 28 days of culture, there was no significant difference between groups B, C, and D (P>0.05); at 56 and 84 days of culture, the percentage of PC12 cells with positive axonal elongation reaction in groups C and D was significantly higher than that in group B (P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between groups C and D (P>0.05).ConclusionNGF loaded chitosan-PLGA double-walled microspheres have a potential clinical application in peripheral nerve regeneration after injury.

Methods GDX-102 packed column was used as separation column with an oven temperature of 160 ℃, an injector temperature of 190 ℃ and a flame ionization detector temperature of 190 ℃. Normal propanol solution at 1 mg/mL was adopted to dilute the samples with a volume 50 times of the propanol solution. After being centrifuged, 1ul of the supernatant liquid was injected for analysis. Results The recovery rate of the method was between 91.2% and 105.7%. The deviation of the method with GA/T105-1995 recommendation method was less than 7.1%. The concentration of blood ethanol preserved in the non-anticoagulant tubes was a little higher than that preserved in the anticoagulant tubes. Conclusions The method can be used for the determination of ethanol content in blood. Compared with GA/T105-1995 recommendation method, the sample treatment of this method is much simpler. And the blood tubes with different anticoagulants have influences on the ethanol contents. It is recommended that blood tubes with sodium citrate as anticoagulant can be used for blood sampling and preservers.
Objective To investigate the effect of chaiqin chengqi decoction (CQCQD) on serum lipid metabolism in experimental acute pancreatitis. Methods A total of 27 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups (n=9 for each group). The mice in the acute pancreatitis model group (AP group) and the acute pancreatitis model + CQCQD treatment group (APQ group) received seven intraperitoneal injections of cerulein (50 µg/kg) at hourly intervals, while the mice in the control group (CON group) received phosphate-buffered saline injections at the same regimen of cerulein. Oral gavage of CQCQD (5.5 g/kg) or same volume of distilled water was commenced 1 h after the first cerulein injection for three times at intervals of 4 h for the APQ group and AP group, respectively. Animals were sacrificed 12 h after the first cerulein / phosphate-buffered saline injection for collecting serum and tissue samples. The levels of serum lipase and amylase, pancreatic histopathology assessment, as well as pancreatic myeloperoxidase activity, were used to assess the severity of acute pancreatitis and the efficacy of CQCQD. Additionally, serum lipid metabolites were analyzed in all groups. Results In comparison to the CON group, the mice in the AP group exhibited significant edema, inflammatory cell infiltration, necrosis of pancreatic tissues, as well as elevated levels of serum amylase, lipase, and pancreatic myeloperoxidase activity (P<0.05); in comparison to the AP group, inflammatory cell infiltration and necrosis of pancreatic tissue, as well as elevated level of serum amylase significantly reduced in the APQ group (P<0.05). A total of 319 lipid molecules were identified in serum, and 13 lipid metabolites were significantly increased in the AP group and successfully decreased in the APQ group, of which 9 were lyso-phosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) molecules involved in the glycerol phospholipid metabolic pathway. Further statistical analysis revealed that six of these LPE molecules could serve as potential biomarkers. Conclusions CQCQD ameliorated pancreatic injury and serum lipid metabolism disorder of acute pancreatitis model induced by cerulein and significantly improved the abnormal increase of serum LPE level. However, the role of LPE in acute pancreatitis and the underlying mechanisms of CQCQD on LPE metabolic pathways still need further study.
