Abstract:
Objective To investigate the synergic ratio of sorafenib (SO) and sulforaphane (SF) against the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 in vitro. Methods The synergic effect of SO combined with SF against HepG2 cells was determined by the CCK8 assay (the synergic effect was determined by combination index (CI) value: CI>1.1, antagonistic; 0.9Results The CCK-8 assay showed that SO combined with SF at the molar rate of 1:1,1:10 and 1:20 exhibited strong antagonism (CI>1.1), whereas 20:1,5:1 and 1:5 ratio resulted in synergistic activity (CI<0.9). Furthermore, 10:1 ratio acted as an additive effective (0.9P<0.01). The early and late apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells (21.71±6.06) of the group treated with SO combined with SF at 5:1 synergistic ratio was significantly higher than that of the group treated with SO combined with SF at 1:1 antagonistic ratio(6.64±0.311)(P<0.01). Conclusion SO combined with SF at the molar rate of 5:1 can synergistically inhibit the growth of hepatocellular carcinoma cell line HepG2 in vitro.

Abstract:
Cancer-induced immunosuppressive cells play an important immunosuppressive role during the tumor development process, and the development and progression of tumors are always accompanied with abnormal accumulation of cancer-induced immunosuppressive cells. Regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are major components of these inhibitory cellular networks, and they can inhibit antitumor immune response through multiple mechanisms. Recent studies have provided evidence that beyond their direct cytotoxic or cytostatic effects on cancer cells, some conventional chemotherapeutic drugs and agents used in targeted therapies can promote the elimination or inactivation of suppressive Tregs or MDSCs, resulting in enhanced anti-tumor immunity. Hence, chemotherapeutics, used as a preconditioning regimen and combined with subsequent immunotherapy, can promote anti-tumor immune response. Anticancer chemoimmunotherapy strategy will change the recognization of the role for conventional chemotherapy in anticancer treatment, and it will be helpful to optimize the chemotherapy strategies more reasonably.

Abstract:
Objective To explore the working pattern for endocrinology clinical pharmacists participating in clinical drug treatment. Methods By participating in the treatment for a patient with diabetes and hyperprolactinemia and analyzing the causes of poor glycemic control and hyperprolactinemia, clinical pharmacists proposed therapeutic regimen. Results The long-term psychotropic medication may be one of the reasons why blood glucose of the patient was unsatisfactorily controlled. The patient with hyperprolactinemia may be associated with her longstanding use of paliperidone. The patient was recommended to consult a psychiatrist and switch to an alternative medication which does not cause hyperprolactinemia. Conclusion The active participation of clinical pharmacists during clinical drug therapy could improve the medication rationality and compliance of patients with drugs.

Abstract:
Objective To compare the therapeutic effectiveness and safeness of venlafaxine sustained-release capsules and citalopram tablets in the treatment of post-stroke depression. Methods 60 patients were randomly divided into venlafaxine group (n=30)and citalomram group(n=30) for 8 weeks treatment. Hamilton rating scale for depression(HAMD) and treatment emergent system scale (TESS) were used to evaluate the efficacy and side effects, respectively. Results After 4-8 weeks of treatment,both scores of HAMD of the two groups decreased significantly(P<0.05),but there was no difference between the two groups(P>0.05). The total scores of HAMD in venlafaxine group were notably lower than citalopram group after 2 weeks(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in side effects between the two groups(P>0.05). Conclusion There was no significant difference in gross curative effect and side effects between two groups; venlafaxine worked faster compared to citalopram.

Abstract:
Objective To analyze the reason of drug shortages in medical institutions and take corresponding prevention measures to ensure drug supply. Methods The drug outbound orders in 2012 were retrospectively analyzed to trace the procurement plan of badly-needed drugs and the delivery time of supplier. Excel was used to carry out classification and statistics for the information of drug shortages combined with the explanations that the supplier failed to supply to summarize the external cause and internal cause of drug shortages in medical institutions. Results In 2012, the dispensing department received a total of 46862 plans, and 1423 items were badly-needed drugs.The drug shortage rate was 3.0%. 643 times of drug shortages were caused by external causes which accountedfor 45.2% of all the shortages; 780 times of the drug shortages were caused by internal causes which accounted for 54.8%. Price inversion accounted for 40.7% in the external causes that lead to the drug shortages, and it was the top of the external causes for drug shortages. The low-priced small varieties and generic drugs accounted for 71.2% of drug shortages caused by external causes; in the internal causes of drug shortages, the inventory control accounted for 45.0%, ranked the first. Conclusion The scientific and reasonable drug price, the improvement of bidding policy, the joint effort of all parties of drug supply chain, and the enhancement of the early warning and management of the badly-needed drugs can reduce drug shortage.
