Objective: To probe the biological character of liposome-mediated 99m-technetium-labeled antisense oligonucleotide of c-myc mRNA, and lay the foundations for clinical research on antisense image or treatment.

Methods: Antisense, sense and scrambled oligonucleoyide, each containing 15 bases, were synthesized elsewhere. The rates of liposome-entrapped 99mTc-DNA and 99mTc-DNA combination with plasma protein were tested through trichloroacetic acid precipitation. BALB/c mice were used to test the biodistribution in vivo, and rabbits were used to investigate the pharmacokinetics characters.

Results: Their rates of combination with plasma protein ranged from 34.81% to 70.53%. Reticuloendothelial system played an important role in the biodistribution; stomach, blood and intestines were less important; other tissues accumulated the least of the liposome-mediated 99mTc-labeled c-myc oligonucleotides. The pharmacokinetics of liposome-entrapped 99mTc-DNA fitted the open dithecal model. Their distribution (t1/2 alpha) half time was about 2 to 5 minutes, and clearance (t1/2 beta) half time about 100 to 150 minutes. Plasma clearance was smaller than 2 ml/min.

Conclusion: The rate of 99mTc-DNA combination with plasma protein was high. The biological half time of liposome-mediated 99mTc-DNA was proper. Plasma clearance was high. So liposome-mediated 99mTc-DNA is a potential kind of radioactive agent.

As several decades of research have shown the cardioprotective effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors alone or in combination with diuretics, we were interested in investigating the effects of subchronic therapy of these drugs on ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) damage to the heart, as well as their influence on oxidative status. The research was conducted on 40 spontaneously hypertensive male Wistar Kyoto rats, divided into 4 groups. Animals were treated for four weeks with 10 mg/kg/day zofenopril alone or in combination with hydrochlorothiazide, indapamide and spironolactone per os.

Residual antibiotics in aquatic environments pose health and ecological risks due to their persistence and resistance to biodegradation. Thus, it is crucial to develop efficient technologies for the degradation of such antibiotics. This study presents a novel approach using a nano zero-valent iron/graphitic carbon nitride (nZVI/g-CN)-enhanced dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma process for the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP).

Introduction And Importance: Diabetic foot ulcers, especially when complicated by cellulitis, pose a significant challenge in diabetes management, often leading to amputation. This case report highlights the successful treatment of a diabetic foot ulcer in an amputation candidate using a combination of negative pressure wound therapy and platelet-rich plasma injection, potentially reducing the risk of amputation in high-risk patients.

Case Presentation: A 62-year-old male with poorly controlled diabetes presented with a chronic diabetic foot ulcer and cellulitis.
