In recent years, monoclonal antibodies have become the area of interest in industry. Unlike small molecules, monoclonal antibodies exhibit unique structural and physiological properties, alongside with differences in absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion. These unique properties of monoclonal antibodies［e.g. target-mediated drug disposition (TMDD), nonlinear pharmacokinetics, time-dependence and long half-life］ pose several challenges in drug development. Appropriate application of modeling and simulation techniques can help researchers with data mining, predicting clinical trial outcomes, guiding clinical trial designs and optimizing dosing schemes. Among these, the application of the TMDD model in the monoclonal antibody development is growing. In this review, a brief introduction on the pharmacokinetic properties of monoclonal antibodies is provided, followed by a discussion on the feasibility and necessity of applying the TMDD model to monoclonal antibody drug development. The aim of current work is to provide a reference for researchers to scientifically and efficiently conduct studies on the monoclonal antibodies.

AIM: To explore the effects of elemene injected in multiple ways on liver histology changes in rabbits.  METHODS: Thirty New Zealand White rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups: transauricular vein group (n=6), transarterial perfusion group (n=6), transarterial lipiodol group (n=6), transarterial gelfoam group (n=6) and transhepatic puncture group (n=6). Each rabbit was administrated elemene (20 mg/kg) via different access in 6 minutes. The serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) concentrations were measured and 2 rabbits were euthanized for histological analysis at 6 hours and 1 week after administration. RESULTS: The AST concentration in plasma 6 hours after administration was（414.7±235.2） μmol/L in transarterial lipiodol group,（333.3±250.6） μmol/L in transhepatic puncture group, （92.3±73.6）μmol/L in transarterial gelfoam group and ALT concentration was （209.0±116.5）μmol/L in transarterial lipiodol group, （118.7±50.0）μmol/L in transhepatic puncture group, （68.3±21.4） μmol/L in transarterial gelfoam group, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of transauricular vein group or transarterial perfusion group (P<0.01). Under optical microscope, different degree of coagulation necrosis was seen easily in the transarterial lipiodol group, transhepatic puncture group and transarterial gelfoam group, concurrent with small bile duct hyperplasia, infiltration of a lot of inflammatory cells around bile duct, fatty degeneration of liver cells. However, only mild or moderate hydropic degeneration of liver cells was seen in transauricular vein group or transarterial perfusion group. CONCLUSION: Compared with transauricular vein or transarterial perfusion administration, the effects of elemene injected transarterial with lipiodol or gelfoam and transhepatic puncture may be more efficient.

AIM: To investigate the effect of platelet activation on renal tubular epithelial cells in sepsis. METHODS: ELISA was used to detect the inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-6 secreted by platelets. Renal tubular epithelial cells and platelets were co-cultured in the co-culture system. Western blot was used to test p65 and p-p65 protein in renal tubular epithelial cells in the lower chamber. IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA expression level was measured by qRT-PCR. Cecal ligation and puncture(CLP) were used to construct the sepsis model, and TLR4 inhibitor TAK-242 was injected in caudal vein. In order to observe injury degree of renal tissue, EdU experiment and serum creatinine detection were carried out. RESULTS: IL-1β and IL-6 cytokines secreted by active platelets were increased in the presence of different concentrations of LPS. In the platelet and renal tubular epithelial cells co-culture system, p-p65 protein was increased in the tubular epithelial cells. TAK-242 could inhibit platelet activation, and reduce the renal tubular epithelial cell inflammatory cytokines secretion.The proliferation and pathological status were improved, and serum creatinine was decreased. CONCLUSION: The platelets in septic patients are aggregated and activated. inflammatory cytokines are increased. These cytokines activate NF-κB signaling pathway of renal tubular epithelial cells, leading to renal injury. TLR4 inhibitors have potential clinical value to improve the renal injury in sepsis.

AIM: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and endothelial cell (EPCs) in patients undergoing cardiac transplantation.  METHODS: From January 2012 to January 2016, 120 patients undergoing cardiac transplantation in our hospital were selected as the study group. At the same time, 120 healthy people were selected as the control group according to age and sex matching. The level of MMP-9 in plasma was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The level of EPCs was detected by Flow cytometry, the difference and correlation between MMP-9 and EPCs in two groups were compared and analyzed. RESULTS:The levels of MMP-9 and EPCs in plasma of patients after heart transplantation were significantly increased, compared with those before transplantation, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The levels of MMP-9 and EPCs before and after heart transplantation in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The levels of MMP-9 and EPCs in the patients plasma with heart transplantation complication were（128.46±7.32） mg/L and 166.84±14.82, which were significantly higher than those in the normal group（94.25±7.14） mg/L and 134.68±13.68（P< 0.05）. The levels of MMP-9 and EPCs in the patients plasma with heart transplantation death cases were（137.36±8.13） mg/L and 168.24±14.62, which were significantly higher than those in the survival cases (92.85±7.06） mg/L and 98.41±13.24（P <0.05）.The expression of MMP-9 was positively correlated with the expression of EPCs (r=0.686, P=0.000) in patients undergoing heart transplantation. CONCLUSION: The levels of MMP-9 and EPCs in plasma is closely related to early pathologic changes of allograft vasculopathy after heart transplantation; monitoring the dynamic changes of plasma MMP-9 and EPCs of high-risk patients may contribute to observe the early after cardiac allograft vasculopathy tendency after heart transplantation, and timely adjust the treatment plan.

Both groups received antiviral treatment, and the control group was given NB-UVB therapy, while the observation group received oxycodone hydrochloride controlled release tablets combined with NB-UVB therapy; the treatment cycle was 14 days. RESULTS: The skin lesion regression time of the observation group was (6.18±1.05) d, which was significantly shorter than (7.93±1.36) d in the control group (P<0.05). The pain and skin lesions scores in the observation group after treatment were (2.33±1.38) points and (1.26±0.76) points, which were significantly lower than (4.46±1.93) points and (3.56±1.18) points of the control group (P<0.05), and that before treatment (P<0.05). There were no severe adverse reactions in the two groups during the treatment, and the nausea and vomiting, constipation, drowsiness, dizziness and other adverse reactions compared between the two groups showed no significant difference (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Oxycodone hydrochloride controlled release tablets combined with NB-UVB in the treatment of herpes zoster neuralgia can effectively and safely relieve the pain and skin lesions so as to promote the patient's rehabilitation.

AIM: To explore the effects of rivaroxaban combined with Xuesaitong injection on deep venous thrombosis (DVT) formation of lower extremity after spinal trauma surgery and its effects on blood coagulation function, blood rheology and other blood biochemical indexes.  METHODS: One hundred and five patients undergone spinal surgery in our hospital were divided into the treatment group and control group 1, control group 2 according to the different treatment methods after surgery, with 35 cases in each. After surgery, the control group 1 was given Xuesaitong injection therapy; the control group 2 was given rivaroxaban, while the treatment group was treated with rivaroxaban intervention and Xuesaitong injection therapy. The changes of coagulation function, hemorheology index and other blood biochemical indexes were detected and compared among the three groups. The incidence of DVT in three groups was evaluated and compared among three groups five days after surgery. RESULTS: After treatment, the PT, APTT and TT of the three groups were significantly prolonged compared with those before treatment; the FIB level was significantly lower than that before treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the difference among the three groups was significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). After treatment, the whole blood viscosity, hematocrit, erythrocyte rigidity index of three groups were significantly lower than those before treatment; erythrocyte deformation index was significantly higher than that before treatment (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the difference among three groups was significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01). After treatment, the levels of PLT and ET in the two groups were significantly higher than those before treatment, the D-D level was significantly lower than that before treatment (P<0.01), and there was significant difference among the three groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no significant difference in Hb level before and after treatment and among three groups (P>0.05). The incidence of DVT in the treatment group was 2.86%, which was significantly lower than 14.28% in control group 1 and 11.42% in control group 2 (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Rivaroxaban combined with Xuesaitong injection can safely improve the coagulation function, blood rheology and other blood biochemical indexes, and effectively prevent the formation of DVT after spinal surgery.

The advent of proton pump inhibitors represents an important milestone in the treatment of acid related diseases. However, these drugs have some deficiencies in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. Potassium-competitive acid blockers reversibly bind to proton pumps in a competitive manner with potassium ions, thereby inhibiting gastric acid secretion and having multiple advantages. In order to provide a new reference for the treatment of acid related diseases, the research and development experience and pharmacological characteristics and clinical research of these drugs are reviewed, and the focuses are on the already listed revaprazan and vonoprazan.
