Diphosphonate treatment of Paget's disease

Ethane-1-hydroxy-1, 1-diphosphonate (EHDP) was administered in a dose of 20 mg/kg/d to 21 patients with symptomatic Paget's disease. All patients were treated for 6 months and then followed for an additional 6 months. There was a striking decline in serum alkaline phosphatase and urinary hydroxy-proline excretion observed after 3 months of therapy which was not significantly improved in the succeeding 3 months. Concomitantly there was marked improvement in clinical symptoms and bone scans. Following cessation of therapy, continued biochemical and clinical evidence of remission persisted. Several patients on repeat treatment with EHDP appeared to respond promptly. Side effects were minimal except for a possibly related osteomalacia and increased incidence of pathologic fractures.     

Lateral hypothalamic syndrome in rats: a comparison of the behavioral and neurochemical effects of lesions placed in the lateral hypothalamus and nigrostriatal bundle

The effects of total (T-NSB) and subtotal (S-NSB) destruction of the nigrostriatal bundle were compared with the effects of large lateral hypothalamic (LH) lesions on various aspects of the lateral hypothalamic syndrome. The T-NSB and LH lesions produced equivalent decreases in caudate and telencephalic contents of dopamine and norepinephrine, while with the exception of telencephalic dopamine, S-NSB lesions had consistently smaller effect. The T-NSB and LH lesions produced equivalent effects on duration of aphagia and adipsia (Stages 1 to 3) and on long-term decreases in body weight and ad lib water consumption, and these effects were always greater than those produced by the S-NSB lesion. These aspects of the lateral hypothalamic syndrome appeared to be related to the interruption of the nigrostriatal bundle and consequent decrease in caudate dopamine. The T-NSB and S-NSB lesions produced equivalent long-term deficits in water regulation as measured by drinking in the absence of food or in response to intra- and extracellular dehydration, but these deficits were always significantly less than those produced by the LH lesion. It was concluded that these regulatory deficits were not related to destruction of catecholamine pathways. All three lesions totally blocked eating in response to a glucoprivic challenge. This aspect of the lateral hypothalamic syndrome, therefore, results from destruction of a small portion of the lateral diencephalon and may be related to the interruption of the dopaminergic mesolimbic system.     

庆大霉素/α半水硫酸钙载药体系的体外释药研究

对硫酸庆大霉素/α半水硫酸钙载药体系进行了模拟条件下体外释药研究，并对其晶体结构进行了分析。X-射线衍射分析结果表明，载药体系中一定含量的硫酸庆大霉素不会影响α半水硫酸钙的水化；模拟条件下体外释药研究表明，各种药物含量的载药体系均表现出了良好的缓释性能，持续释放时间超过了360h；随着试样中载药量的增加，其药物释放速率加快；另外，构制了均一分散和核壳结构两种载药体系，研究结果表明，均一分散型在前期释放速度要大于核壳结构型，而后期核壳结构型则比均一分散型要高。

2-甲基-8-（9，9-二丁基芴）-3，5，7-三炔-2-辛醇的合成和性质研究

合成了一种新颖的乙炔衍生物，2-甲基-8-（9，9-二丁基芴）-3，5，7-三炔-2-辛醇（6a），并利用红外光谱（IR），紫外光谱（Uv），核磁（NMR），质谱（MS）等对其结构进行了表征。利用红外光谱（IR）和紫外光谱（Uv）对其拓扑固相聚合性质进行了研究。实验结果表明，这些化合物在加热和紫外光照射条件下都能够发生固相聚合，但得到的是结构复杂的聚合物。
