    Atomization inhalation therapy achieves the goal of treatment by inhaling tiny drug droplets or particles, which were transformed through an atomizer using the gas-jet stream principle, into the respiratory tract and lungs to deposit on the alveolar.It has the advantages of fast response, low dosage and high safety in the treatment of respiratory diseases.Therefore, the atomization inhalation therapy is generally favored by both doctors and patients.In China, due to the lack of the special devices for atomization dosage forms and varied levels of clinicians’ experience, atomization inhalation therapy was often involved in off-label drug uses.These empirical medications lacked the corresponding systematic evaluations in terms of drug stability, efficacy and safety, thus affecting the therapeutic effect on patients.This review discusses the choices of atomization devices, current application status and medication mismanagement of atomization inhalation therapy in China.

    Objective To study the effects of rosiglitazone on airway inflammatory factors and MUC5ac expression in asthmatic mice. Methods Thirty male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into normal control group, asthma group and rosiglitazone group(10 rats in each group). Airway inflammation was observed by HE staining in lung tissue of each group. The changes of goblet cells and mucus in airway epithelium were observed by Alxin blue-periodic acid Schiff (AB-PAS) staining. The inflammatoryfactors (IL-5,IL-13,TNF-α) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected by ELISA method. The expression of MUC5ac in lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC) method. The expression of MUC5ac mRNA in lung tissue was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR). Results The pathological score of peribronchial inflammation, the positive relative staining area of goblet cells and mucus in airway epithelium were lower than those in asthma group, but still higher than those in normal control group (P<0.01). The levels of IL-5, IL-13 and TNF- α in BALF in rosiglitazone group were lower than those in asthma group, but still higher than those in normal control group (P<0.01). The content of MUC5ac protein and mRNA in lung tissue of rosiglitazone group was lower than that of asthma group, but still higher than that of normal control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Rosiglitazone can effectively attenuate the airway inflammatory reaction of asthmatic mice, regulate the expression of airway mucin MUC5ac and inhibit airway mucus hypersecretion.

    Objective To study the therapeutic effect of compound Qixiong granules on adjuvant arthritis (AA) rats and the effect on Toll-like Receptor 2 (TLR2) and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) pathway. Methods Sixty Wistar rats were randomly divided into six groups: blank control group, model control group, low-, medium- and high -dose compound Qixiong granules groups and Tripterygium glycosides tablet group.Except for rats in blank control group, other rats were developed into arthritis rat model with the complete Freund's adjuvant.In the third week after the onset of inflammation, the rats were administrated with treatment solutions by gastrogavage.During the experiment, the thickness of the toe metatarsus was observed and measured regularly.At 24 h after the last administration, rats were anesthetized and the synovium of knee joint was collected.The expression of TLR2 and MyD88 protein in synovial tissue was detected by Western blot, and the expression of TLR2 mRNA was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR. Results Compared with the blank control group, the toe thickness was increased, and the expressions of TLR2, MyD88 protein and TLR2 mRNA were increased (P<0.05) in the treatment groups.The toe thickness of rats in each treatment group were decreased after 3 weeks, and the expressions of TLR2, MyD88 protein and TLR2 mRNA were decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion Compound Qixiong granules have therapeutic effects on arthritis rats, and the effect of middle and high doses group was better than that of the low dose compound Qixiong granules group and Tripterygium glycosides group.The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TLR2 pathway.

    Objective To study the transdermal permeability of compound cultivated calculus bovis microemulsion gel prepared with different concentrations of drugs and the interaction among transdermal components. Methods In vitro transdermal permeation experiments were carried out to test compound cultivated calculus bovis microemulsion gels with different drug concentrations.The concentrations of berberine hydrochloride and paeonol in the transdermal receiving solution were determined by high performance liquid chromatography, and the results were fitted with zero order, first order, and Higuchi dynamic equations.The effect of drug loading amount on the transdermal rates and the differentiation pattern were elucidated.The same method was also used to examine the differences in transdermal behavior between the two single components alone and in combination. Results Within the range of testing drug concentrations, the permeation parameters of berberine hydrochloride in compound calculus bovis microemulsion gel were best fitted with zero-order kinetic equation, indicating that the component passed through the skin via a passive diffusion process.The amount of skin permeation per unit time was proportional to the concentration of the matrix drug, and the Q-t relationship could be described by the Ficks diffusion law.However, the transdermal permeation parameters of paeonol were best fitted by Higuchi kinetic equation, indicating that the release amount of paeonol per unit area from the gel matrix was proportional to the square root of the time.But the increase of matrix drug concentration was not proportional to the increase of transdermal amount per unit time.The cumulative transdermal amount of single component preparation of berberine hydrochloride in 16 hours was significantly higher than that of the compound preparation (P<0.05), while the cumulative transdermal amount of single component preparation of paeonol and the compound preparation had little difference in the examination period. Conclusion Although increasing the drugs concentration could increase the transdermal permeation rate of berberine hydrochloride and paeonol in calculus bovis microemulsion gel, there are still some adverse factors that may affect the release and penetration of berberine hydrochloride.Thus, further improvements are needed to overcome these problems.

    Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of resveratrol (RSV) nanoparticles combined with silk fibroin hydrogel on psoriasis. Methods The RSV-loaded nanoparticles (RVS-NPs) were prepared with a novel polymer vitamin E succinate grafted ε-polylysine conjugate.After the characterization, the RVS-NPs was mixed with silk fibroin solution by a sonication-induced gelation method to form the drug loaded nanoparticle silk fibroin gel (RVS-NPs-gel).Among 60 BALB/c mice, 15 mice were randomly selected as normal control group, and the rest of mice were subjected to imiquimod (IMQ) cream on their skins for eight consecutive days to establish psoriasis skin mice model.The psoriasis mice were then randomly divided into psoriasis control group, resveratrol solution gel group (RVS-gel) and RVS-NPs-gel group, respectively.Blank gel, RVS-gel and RVS-NPs-gel containing 20 mg resveratrol were given to the mice in each group once every other day for 5 times.PASI (Psoriasis Area and Severity Index) score, HE staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to study the therapeutic effect and mechanism of RVS-NPs-gel on psoriasis. Results The morphology of RVS-loaded nanoparticles was round in shape, and resveratrol encapsulation efficiency was as high as (85.54±3.21)%.The drug loaded nanoparticles as flocculant were adsorbed on 3D surface of Silk Fibroin Gel.In vitro drug release result showed that the cumulative release of RVS-NPs was about (46.0±4.1)% after 72 hours, while the cumulative release of RVS-NPs-gel was about (30.9±2.5)%, which decreased significantly (P<0.05).The proliferation of keratinocytes was observed in the skin of psoriatic mice after the successful IMQ modeling.The scores of skin PASI, including erythema, scaling and thickening in psoriatic mice were significantly increased, and the contents of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 were also significantly increased (P < 0.05) compared with normal control group.However, compared with psoriasis control group and RVS-gel group, the skin PASI score and the contents of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 in RVS-NPs-gel treatment group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion Resveratrol nanoparticles combined with silk fibroin gel can treat psoriasis by inhibiting the release of inflammatory factors such as TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8, which is expected to become a new method in the clinical psoriasis treatment.

    Objective To investigate the clinical features of antibacterial agents-induced drug eruptions, and to explore the rationality of the systematic use of glucocorticoids in non-severe drug eruptions caused by antibacterial agents. Methods Clinical data of 65 patients with drug eruptions caused by antibacterial agents from April 2011 to April 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among 65 cases of drug eruptions, 29.2% of the cases were caused by penicillins, which accounted for the highest proportion.There were 10 cases of severe drug eruptions and 55 cases of non-severe drug eruptions.The rash type of drug eruptions accounted for 36.9% as the highest proportion.Fixed drug eruptions were the most common type caused by nitroimidazole antibiotics.The incubation period of antibacterial agents-induced drug eruptions was within 7 days.In the non-severe drug eruptions with relatively extensive lesion area, patients with systemic glucocorticoid therapy had the shorter rash time and hospitalization time than non-glucocorticoid patients had, and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion In this study, we identified that the most common drug eruptions caused by penicillins, and rash-type eruption was the most common drug eruption.In non-severe drug eruptions with a relatively wide area of rash, early and moderate uses of glucocorticoids could provide benefits in reducing duration of drug eruption thus reducing costs.
